Zeng Xingyang on the court was also helped up by Faried and Jokic.
"Well done."
"Keep playing like this."
Faried and Jokic both felt very excited.
"Later they should change their defensive strategy, not letting that guy guard me. Nikola, it'll be your turn to take him one-on-one," Zeng Xingyang said.
"Alright, leave it to me. If they double team, I'll look for you guys," Jokic confidently replied.
Jokic felt even less concerned about Little Thomas's defense.
On the sidelines, at the Celtics' coaching bench.
Stevens instructed, "If Isaiah encounters Zeng later, double team."
"OK!"
"No problem."
The Celtics players all responded.
Little Thomas's face felt hot; he clearly noticed that now both the head coach and his teammates saw him as a defensive weak point.
This feeling was very uncomfortable. He has always wanted to prove himself, to shatter the doubts.
