However, when Pierce saw the news report, he wished the Warriors' official team would imdiately send him a bill.
Isn't it just about money?
Although Pierce's comrcial value has never been high, as the star of this Celtics team, how could he lack money?
"They're doing this on purpose!"
Recalling the frustrating scenes from the final monts of the second ga of the finals, Pierce exclaid indignantly, "I've said I didn't poop my pants! Why won't anyone believe ?"
Hearing this, the Celtics players, who knew that Pierce indeed did have an accident, really didn't know how to comfort "The Truth."
But no matter what, they all had to join Pierce in this act.
Because after the first two gas of the finals...
The Celtics, already trailing zero to two, needed Pierce to rally more than ever for the upcoming gas.
Even though Qin Yue's 70-point ga in the finals had already made him the "Yellow-Skinned Jesus" of the basketball world,
since that year's Celtics managed to beat the peerless "Black Jesus" with team basketball...
Now...
The Celtics, who never considered giving up, naturally wanted to follow in the footsteps of their predecessors and use the 2-3-2 finals format to change their fate with the next three ho gas.
Externally, the dia also generally believed that as long as the Celtics could win the upcoming third ga of the finals, they would have a complete chance to turn the series around.
After all, Qin Yue couldn't score 70 points like God every night for the Warriors.
In addition, as the Celtics players had proved in the first two gas, the Warriors' periter shooters' touch could still be disrupted and influenced by high-intensity physical confrontation...
Now that the series had moved to the Celtics' ho court...
"I know we are leading 2-0." In Oakland, before leading the team to Boston, Qin Yue suddenly said seriously, "But in this series, the next three away gas are the real test."
Every Warriors player was familiar with stories about how the Celtics in the past used tricks at ho for advantage.
This team has historically been willing to use any ans to win.
Adjusting the tightness of the rim to alter a basketball's trajectory after missing a shot was child's play for the Celtics.
Before the third ga began, due to an electrical equipnt failure at North Shore Garden Arena during practice, the Warriors were forced to train for less than 30 minutes.
Furthermore, the Green Army fans, beating drums and gongs at the entrance of the Warriors' hotel, severely affected the Warriors players' sleep quality that ga night.
And during the pre-ga warm-up...
Besides only having hot water and no cold water in the visitors' locker room...
Qin Yue also noticed the varying solidity of the court floor at North Shore Garden Arena.
Just as the quality of the grass and watering levels in football can unavoidably affect a team's offense...
In basketball, differences in floor solidity can also lead to fatal errors when players are dribbling.
On the court, after Qin Yue dribbled around their half of the court, he imdiately gathered his teammates, "In this ga, we must reduce unnecessary dribbling."
"Indeed, I just noticed that in so areas, the basketball rebounds faster, but in others, you have to hit it hard for it to rebound to where you want," Nash nodded in agreent.
So the question was, wouldn't the Celtics' ho court floor affect their ga rhythm as well?
The answer is, yes.
In fact, even though the Celtics, with their ho advantage, could adapt to the floor's solidity...
During real gas, the ho court floor at North Shore Garden Arena also inevitably troubled their players.
Just compared to the Warriors, who relied more on ball-handling and penetration in the previous two gas...
The Celtics, who initiated attacks and completed plays with less dribbling, were relatively less affected.
"Just you wait!"
Before the ga, Pierce, full of hatred for Wallace, took the initiative to threaten, "I will personally sweep you into the trash can!"
In response, Wallace, unfazed, said, "As long as you don't poop on during the ga."
Pierce: "..."
Even though Wallace had never been good at trash-talking,
when this straightforward guy repeatedly revealed the embarrassing truth in front of Pierce...
There was nothing more effective than the truth to break Pierce's defenses when it ca to trash talk.
At the center court stood the famous Joey Crawford, embracing the ball as he walked to the circle.
Earlier, noticing the referee list, Qin Yue had an ominous feeling.
Because typically...
This Crawford always seed to referee with a mission from David Stern.
As expected by Qin Yue.
Soon after the ga started, Joe Crawford showed what a double standard really ans.
The sa actions would be fouls against the Warriors but not for the Celtics.
On the sidelines, Ma Long repeatedly protested Crawford's officiating, "If you're calling the ga like this, we can't play normally!"
Under Crawford's bias, in the third ga, the Celtics received a total of 18 free throws throughout the match.
