The strong men in the East all wanted to see which team could do well and took away the Celtics' monsters.

Otherwise, if they let them continue to struggle like this, they probably don’t have to wait for any playoffs. Before the regular season ends, the top eight teams in the Eastern Conference will be broken up by them.

Although many Eastern Conference teams are looking forward to someone standing up and dealing with the Celtics who have been crazy recently, no one is as good as this one. After all, you really need a little courage to face those lunatics.

Not everyone can be as willing to do as the Celtic guys. If you want to stop them, you can't do it with just one word, unless you dare to fight for your life from the first minute like them.

There are many teams that can fight to the death. As long as these players are scrambling in NBA, who are not crazy yet, but if the entire team can maintain a crazy state, it is really not that easy to find.

Among the teams that can enter the quarterfinals in the East, no one is fighting against the Celtics when they are hot. The teams ahead want to preserve their strength, but fortunately they made a big splash in the playoffs.

The pursuers behind are now a little different from the Celtics. If they get crazy when they meet them, you don’t have to consider overturning their opponents unless you have the patience to wait for them to make mistakes.

However, with the pair of partners Rivers and Thibodeau staring at the side, the winning of those wild boys is simply not a little bit strong, and no one dares to say that their team can suppress the fierce impact of the Celtics.

Anyway, the Eastern Conference was completely disrupted by the Celtics' storm. The only thing that can make a profit from the chaos is the Celtics themselves. They are crazy and never ruthless when they pick up cheaps. Five consecutive victories are obviously not their bottom line. They are still crazily attacking every opponent they meet. Anyway, Rivers said just one thing, losing can be done, but they will never lose the game in a mess.

After killing the five unlucky guys in front, these guys didn't stop. They were in a state of greatness and a sensation. The Indiana Pacers were beaten up as soon as they arrived in Boston.

Now the Celtics' home court is just like a slaughterhouse. Anyone who dares to come to the door, no matter what the boss of the Eastern Conference or the best record in the entire league, as long as you dare to come, they will dare to knock you down!

The Mavericks suffered a loss here, and the Pistons just fell apart here. The Suns and Hornets actually made a lot of them that could make it into the top ten teams in the league. There are really many people who have hit a wall here in Boston.

So the teams in the league are saying, "North Shore Garden Arena is definitely the place I don't like to go the least."

And this is definitely the schedule that Rick Carlisle is most reluctant to face. He has been playing away games in Boston and now he still has to play away games in Boston, which is really annoying.

Originally, this season, without the spiritual leader like Old Miller, the Pacers' competitiveness in the East has been declining, and O'Neal, the successor, could not be a qualified boss.

Although O'Neal Jr. is also an All-Star player, it is impossible for anyone to replace that tough guy in this team with extremely serious Miller's traces. If it doesn't work now, it will be difficult in the future.

Rick Carlisle didn't make any effort, but the players' injuries, disorganized personnel, and poor morale. Anyway, when these things are accumulated together, there will be an outbreak, and even if you are God, you can't do anything.

So now the Pacers are in such an awkward situation. Their results have not fallen to the bottom in the East, but they can only reach the top spot. It is very difficult to rush up.

I originally expected to have a buffer period after the All-Star Game and take advantage of the opportunity of his injury to return to the team. No matter what, Rick Carlisle also wants to lead the team to enter the playoffs again.

As a result, this damn schedule gave the Pacers a fatal blow after the All-Star Game. When they met the Bulls and the Heat, they were both knocked down by their opponents at home, and there was no chance at all.

This is the gap. No matter what you say, there is this gap between the Pacers and the top teams in the East, especially after Old Miller retired, which is becoming increasingly obvious.

In the past, they had a hard bone that could help the team stabilize the morale of the army, but now they are not even this bone.

Although it is undeniable to the post-Miller era mentioned by the outside world, you still want to turn a new page, but this goal is indeed not a little difficult for Rick Carlisle.

Just looking forward to O'Neal Jr. carrying the team forward, this matter is unreliable no matter how you look at it. After all, that guy has never been a qualified leader. It was indeed a bit difficult for him to bear everyone's expectations when he stood beside Miller. It seems that the Pacers' reconstruction road will take a long time.

But no matter what Rick Carlisle is, he has to lead the team forward, even if there is only a little chance.

His goal has always been in the playoffs, but it's really bad to meet the Celtics at this time.

Everyone knows that those bandits are in a hurry now, and no matter who you are, they will dare to overturn you to the ground.

And this is on Boston's territory. I guess I know how terrifying the home atmosphere here is. Even Rick Carlisle himself does not expect to escape here without losing his life.

The entire game process also proved Rick Carlisle's idea. Those Boston animals really didn't leave any chance for the Pacers. They launched a crazy impact from the first second of the game.

Jamal Dinsley, El Harrington, Danny Granger, O'Neal Jr., Stephen Jackson, the Pacers' main lineup is actually not weak, and they are even a little strong.

In fact, the Pacers' team is still OK, but their competitiveness is becoming slack as the spiritual leader disappears. Rick Carlisle has no good idea about this.

In the first quarter, the Pacers really withstood the Celtics' impact. At the end of the first quarter, the Bostonians led by only 27:25. And just looking at the confrontations on the field, the Pacers were not at a disadvantage, but Rick Carlisle never relieved the pressure in his heart.

Because he knew that this was not the Celtics' most fierce offensive. In the first quarter, Rivers' starting lineup was only Rondo, Pierce, Jefferson, Perkins and Szebiak.

That guy who was like a bucket had not yet appeared. Similarly, Sprewell kept rubbing his hands on the bench. Rick Carlisle would never naively think that Rivers would keep them away.

In fact, Rivers changed the lineup just to allow the guys under his command to play more personnel. This guy just wanted to get along with the bandits in his hands, and he really didn't have the mentality of letting go.

He has been trying this way in previous games. For the playoffs, if you only have one lineup and it is not easy to survive until the end of that game, this is also a preparation backup.

So, as soon as the second quarter began, Rivers decisively let Jefferson and Chen Feng's inside partner reappear, and Sprewell also replaced Szebiak on the court, and Pierce and Rondo continued to stick to their posts.

This is not Rivers denying his tactical arrangements, but he has no intention of letting Rick Carlisle's team have any good life at his doorstep. Instead of getting into trouble, it's better to rush for a while.

After rushing, uh, then he really rushed down. The Pacers' lineup did not change much from the first quarter, but their opponents became more cruel.

Especially O'Neal, little boy, obviously felt the ruthlessness of the little madman. His inside defense pressure instantly increased by one level, and even more.

Originally, O'Neal was a little disdainful of this guy who squeezed out and entered the All-Star Game, but in this fight I understood why those reporters would chase such a guy and write articles in a row.

Damn, how dare you be a little more cruel? O'Neal really wants to ask the animal who is competing with him. This is your sister's game in a regular season! Do you need to do it? I seem to have killed your whole family? Your uncle!

But it is absolutely useless to complain about whether Chen Feng is a beast. No matter whether he is happy to meet such a fierce guy or not, he has to stand up under the basket and raise his hands to try to block the impact.

Chen Feng has always been very hungry to fight against such an all-star big guy, so as soon as Rivers was about to substitute, Chen Feng jumped on the court, and he needed such a confrontation.

Chen Feng certainly didn't know how depressed O'Neal was. All he had to do was release the anger he had accumulated for more than a month in the game.

His madness has not weakened in the five games. You can imagine what this guy has been tortured by Tarcanian. No matter who his opponent is, he will probably suffer.

In the second quarter, the Celtics scored 30:19 in a single quarter, which is a clear proof.

It was only two points away, but at the end of the second quarter, the gap had widened to 13 points. And judging from the spirit of the players on both sides on the court, this is definitely not the end.

Rick Carlisle didn't know how many timeouts he had called, but his roar and personnel adjustments in trying to regain the morale of the players, did not achieve any effect, and even the mentality of the players was in a downturn.

The Celtics' crazy people are so fierce that they are irresistible, and they seem to be able to destroy the resistance of many people, especially when the fierce attack begins to bombard your head.

The fifteen minutes of the halftime break were not enough for Rick Carlisle to cheer up the team, not to mention that it was at the Celtics' home court, and the crazy shouts from the fans were enough to annoy these outsiders.

"Hey, you are here to win! We are the Celtics, the champion team that cannot be defeated!"

Such shouts never stopped. Even when the first quarter was in a stalemate, those diehard fans in Boston believed that this was just a temporary phenomenon, and victory would definitely belong to them in the end!

The Pacers' players don't like such cheers, but they can't change anything, whether it's the disadvantage on the field or the final score.

Although the final score was only 103:91 and the Celtics only won 12 points, they were all substitutes in the entire fourth quarter. If the Pacers had not taken this opportunity to make a little difference, they would not know how much the score would be at the end, but this way of saving face may not really like it.

However, the Pacers suffered, but many Eastern Conference teams could breathe a sigh of relief because the Boston bandits who had been rampant for a full six games could temporarily leave their sight for a while.

There are three games in the West that are waiting for those lunatics away. I hope no one can conquer the monsters in the East. Someone can suppress them in the West. Otherwise, no one will be able to hold these guys down.

And the first stop of these Bostonians in the west is about to meet, but their old enemies...

(I'll be missing for one day this month, but it's okay, but I've updated 160,000 words, which is a bit too little. Let's work hard next month... Well, I'm optimistic about this Champions League, wow, Real Madrid and Manchester City, Ajax and Dortmund collided, it's so exciting!!!)
