Chapter 114 The flashing November (Part 1)

After the game against the Spurs, the Celtics ran towards Dallas without stopping.

They will challenge the Spurs and the Dallas Mavericks in Texas in a row.

November 4th.

In the game against the Mavericks, the Celtics scored a super high score of 147 to 133.

The Mavericks, who are determined to win the lottery draw, have achieved super high efficiency in the first three quarters. The team's shooting percentage of 56% and 52% three-point shooting percentage, scoring 109 points.

The Celtics are not inferior, with the team hitting a 52% shooting percentage, but they just broke 100 after the three quarters, 9 points behind and entering the final quarter.

In the fourth quarter, the Mavericks still led by 5 points 118 to 113.

Then the Mavericks head coach Carlisle began his super magical operation. In order to successfully obtain a high pick, he took the initiative to replace Matthews, who performed the best and scored 8 three-pointers in the game, and placed two short lineups of Barria and Ferrer in the backcourt, with less than 185cm tall.

The frontcourt was put on again, with Barnes, Powell and Nowitzki's short and slow lineup.

The Mavericks' attitude is very obvious. In the first three quarters, you will be seriously fighting with you, and in the fourth quarter, you will start to focus on your own big plans.

They are all aware of their love for Doncic, a genius in Eastern Europe, and the likes of Ayton cannot arouse their interest. The management of the entire Mavericks team only has one idea: to play all their strength and win Doncic.

After Carlisle showed his magical operation, the Celtics immediately accepted it all. The Mavericks had no record pressure. They had the team's goal this season to break out of the East, so it is necessary to get a higher ranking in the regular season.

In the 8 minutes after the timeout, facing the Mavericks' short and slow lineup, the Celtics burst into an offensive climax of 34:15.

Jianghu doesn't talk about any reason for Jianghu. When he faced Nowitzki in disarray, he used his signature skill "Golden Rooster Independence" in front of him three times in a row, and made a jump shot.

On the other hand, facing the loose defense of the world, the old Nowitzki also used the Golden Rooster's independence, but only had a 1-for-3 shot, and even had a three-for-no-touch shot.

Nowitzki is indeed old. He is still very accurate in playing until the final quarter when he is young, but now he will make three-no moves.

Nowitzki himself was also happy, looking at his hands at the camera, showing a puzzled expression, as if saying, "What's wrong with you, my old guy?"

The audience at Dallas scene laughed happily. They did not laugh at him, but wanted to slowly bid farewell to this team history legend that they respected in a less sad way.

At the end of the game, both sides took the needs and got the results they wanted, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Jianghu scored 35 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists.

He surpassed LeBron James at the age of 19 and 52 days, becoming the youngest player in history to win a triple-double, and once again received three advanced attribute experience cards.

James felt a little chest tight when he saw the news.

“…………I can’t catch a sheep even if I pull a wool…”

On November 5, the Boston Celtics came to Detroit to challenge the Pistons away.

The Celtics played their first overtime game of the season.

Although the Pistons' configuration is not very high, they played very hard in this game.

The team's boss Drummond was the first to be hit, scoring 8 points and 10 rebounds in the first quarter, scoring 15 points and 15 rebounds in the first half to help the Pistons lead the Celtics 57-56.

In the second half, Reggie Jackson on the Pistons' bench suddenly turned against the problem. Within two minutes, he scored three-pointers and two-plus one in a row, and assisted Kennard to score a three-pointer, leading the Pistons to a 15-2 climax, leading the Pistons to lead the Celtics 72-58 to 14 points.

After the game came back, Jianghu began to counterattack. He first made a three-pointer against Tobias Harris' defensive shooting, and then stole Reggie's pass to Drummond, making a counterattack and hit a layup.

Then he broke through and attracted the defensive pass to Irving. Irving made a three-pointer and chased the score difference to 72:66.

In the next round, he emptied Harris, who made 1 of 5 shots from outside the three-point line in this game, and recovered the layup blocked by Drummond.

Irving took the ball and gave it to Rozier on the right. Rozier made a three-pointer and then went out, and his hand was raised and his sword fell, 72-69.

Looking back, the piston requested a pause.

After the timeout, he played a hammer tactic. Kennard received the ball from the bottom corner from the left and made a three-pointer.

The Celtics failed to overtake, and the two sides entered a tug-of-war and took the lead in an alternate way.

The Pistons feel pretty good, with a terrible hit percentage on three-pointers.

On the Celtic side, Drummond could not defend against the breakthroughs of Jianghu and Irving.

In the last 29 seconds of the game, the Celtics led by 3 points.

After the Pistons were suspended, the three-point tactic failed. Reggie Jackson and Kennard did not get a good three-pointer chance, and Drummond finally took a three-pointer.

Drummond missed a three-pointer, Jianghu thought the game was over, everyone thought the game was over, and even the Pistons fans were ready to leave the game.

The referee refused and gave Horford a shooting foul.

Everyone was confused. Although Horford had some movements that touched Drummond's wrist after Drummond took action, at this moment, the referee generally did not give a foul, but he still gave it...

What's even more amazing is that Drummond, who shot 53% of the free throws in the season, made all three free throws.

In this case, it is unreasonable not to be extra time.

Sure enough, after the Celtics were suspended, Irving pressed to the last second, and successfully made a shot from the middle distance, and the two teams entered overtime.

In overtime, the Celtics did not continue to waste opportunities. Jianghu first broke through and broke into 21, causing Drummond's sixth foul, and then blocked Kennard's three-pointer.

After Drummond, who grabbed 26 rebounds, came out, the Pistons' inside line was no longer majestic.

Then, the back hit from Jianghu was double-teamed by the Pistons. He used a pass from the back that was not looking at people and sent the ball to Smart in the bottom corner.

Smart Iron Tree blooms, hitting three points.

108 to 102, two minutes of overtime, the Celtics had an absolute advantage.

At the end of the game, the Celtics controlled the situation steadily and finally won the game 113 to 107.

On November 6, Nike's official website released the design drawings of the 51-point commemorative sneakers and the first-generation sneakers in Jianghu. This is a low-top sneaker similar to AJ1. Nike has invested a lot of energy in it, and also designed exclusive Chinese color schemes such as "Chinese Red" and "Blue and White Porcelain".

In China, Nike's official website tried the sneaker reservation model for the first time.

Price of 999 yuan will be officially released on December 25.

Make an appointment within 15 days of the design renderings launched on November 6, and the 100 yuan deposit can be 300 yuan on December 25.

Nike is very good at playing it. Once the coupon is sold, it will not be refunded or exchanged, and it is not allowed to be used for other product discounts.

Even with such harsh usage conditions, the coupons were sold for 790,000 on the first day of November 6, and another 650,000 on the next day.

In two days, 1.44 million pieces were sold, and the sales of the deduction volume reached 140 million yuan. If all the 1.44 million pairs of sneakers were sold at 699 yuan after deduction, it would be 1 billion yuan.

What does 1 billion mean, 140 million US dollars.

The money from the five-year sneaker contract in Jianghu came back almost instantly.

Nike's smile was so much that his mouth was almost closed. According to their estimates, the total number of people making appointments reached 1 million within 7 days, and 1.5 million in 15 days was enough to meet their expectations.

Unexpectedly, in just two days, Chinese fans booked 1.44 million pairs, which was really beyond their expectations.

The Chinese market is so terrifying!!

Although they also know that many of them must be scalpers or shoe dealers, whether they are scalpers or shoe dealers, they still have to pay in the end.

On November 8, the Celtics welcomed the Cleveland Cavaliers again at home.

This is the second time the two sides have met this season, and the situation of the two teams is very different from the opening match.

The Cleveland Cavaliers seem to have lost their defensive ability. In the past 3 games, their defensive efficiency has reached a terrifying 126.5.

In the past few games, they will almost be hit by any opponent with 120 points. Whether the opposite side is the Suns led by Booker, the 76ers led by Embiid, or the Mavericks who are playing badly can score high points on their heads.

Faced with such a Cavalier, the Celtics had no sympathy at all. They just came up and killed the basket and passed the ball out.

The Cavaliers' defensive strength determines that they will miss a lot of open three-pointers.

In the first quarter alone, Jianghu made 3 three-pointers, while Jaylen Brown and Irving also made 2 goals.

In the first quarter, the Celtics made a three-point shooting percentage of 10 of 16 shots, scoring 39 points in a single quarter, and gaining a 39-26 lead in just one quarter.

Jianghu made 6 of 9 shots in the first quarter, scoring 15 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

In the second quarter, James began to show his power. He made a very long three-pointer from the top of the arc. After hitting, he continued to shoot, and the shots went further and further, and even after crossing the center line, he started to throw.

However, his luck was quickly used up, and after three consecutive three-pointers, he lost his magic.

Then Rozier and Caruso both broke through to score at the basket, and Jianghu made consecutive shots again in the middle distance, and once again chasing James to 5 points to 15 points.

Before the end of the half, JR Smith made a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, and Love assisted James to an all-relay dunk, and the gap between the two sides returned to 8 points.

Half of the side ended, and the two sides were 57 to 65.

When he came back in the second half, Jianghu suddenly attacked, and he broke through and dunked Love after he broke through.

Poor Love collided with the world in the air, lost his balance and fell to the ground, showing a painful expression.

The scene went crazy in an instant, and all the Celtic fans were cheering and screaming wildly, as if trying to overturn the ceiling of the North Shore Garden Arena with their voices.

With the help of the slam dunk bonus from Jianghu and the shouting of "Defense" throughout the audience, the Celtics are full of momentum.

In defense, Jianghu once again faced James and forced him to dribble and walk.

James frowned and spread his hands to the referee helplessly, and the referee explained to him patiently.

Smart jumped excitedly and gestured at the audience's walking gestures. The audience was so crazy that they started to scream.

The game continued, Smart directly rushed to the basket with the ball and encountered a block from James. Jianghu picked up the ball and immediately rushed to the basket again, dunking over James' head.
