The strongest substitute of the Celtics! The first person in history! 2 million surprises help reverse the drama!

Today, in the Eastern Conference semi-finals, the Celtics, who were behind in big scores, won a hearty victory against the Knicks, defeating their opponents 127-105. The big score in the series came to a 2-3 situation, and the suspense of the series continued. Compared with the difference in points, the one who made the most exciting game in this game was Luke Connet.

Before this game, no one expected that this big inside man with an annual salary of only $2.08 million would become the key gentleman in the Celtics' Jedi counterattack. He played 25 minutes and 37 seconds in the whole game, made all 5 shots, scored 10 points and 9 rebounds, and contributed an amazing 7 blocks on the defensive end, with an individual plus-minus value of up to +20.

After Tatum was reimbursed for injury in the last game, the Celtics suffered a blow in both offensive firepower and psychological aspects. In a situation where the score was behind, someone urgently needed to stand up and take the banner. So we saw Derek White scored 7 three-pointers and scored 34 points alone, and also saw Cornett jump from the bench to the inside giant tower. The two attacked and defended, supporting the Celtics' victory today.

Looking back at the game, Connett did not get much playing time in the first half. He only played for 6 and a half points in the first quarter, but was directly pressed on the bench and never made a appearance in the second quarter. But he showed his value in just a few minutes, actively stuck at the basket, scrambled for the frontcourt rebounds, and completed a beautiful patch dunk, which greatly restricted Towns' inside performance on the defensive end.

In the second half, head coach Mazula decisively adjusted his tactics and used Connett to replace Porzingis as the starting center. This change completely revitalized the Celtics' inside. Cornett showed his value from the beginning, grabbing rebounds and completing tip-ins, helping the team overtake the score, helping the Celtics achieve an 11-0 offensive climax, and pulling the score wide in one fell swoop. The

The game entered the late stage of the third quarter. Connet became more and more braver in the battle, blocking Hart and Brunson in succession. After a brutal blood hat, he immediately went to the frontcourt to complete a dunk with both hands. The emotions of the audience were instantly ignited.

sent out 5 blocks in a single quarter, with absolute inside defense suppression. Entering the final quarter, Connett still did not relax and continued to send blocks to help the team expand its lead to 28 points, completely killing the suspense of the game. After the game ended, Connet's name instantly made it to the hot search list, arousing heated discussion among fans and the media. Fans left messages and joked: "A man with $2.08 million is worth 20 million today."

Recalling the data, the 7 blocks in this game are not only a record high in personal career, but also the second highest block record in a single game in the Celtics' history, second only to the 9 blocks set by Robert Williams in 2021. At the same time, he became the first player in NBA history to score 10 points, 9 rebounds, 7 blocks and 100% shooting percentage in the playoffs.

At present, the Celtics have chased the series to 2-3, although they are still on the verge of elimination. According to the schedule, in the next game, the two teams will move to Madison Square Garden to go to the Knicks for the critical sixth game. Whether the state can continue and drag the game into the tiebreak depends on whether Connet and the Celtic generals can break out again.
