"Big Fei, don't be too arrogant!" Pierce stood out, "The game isn't over yet!"
If one side broke the scoring drought but the other couldn't catch up quickly, the suspense of the game would vanish.
Pierce was well aware of this.

As The Celtics' veteran out of the Big Three, and also the player with the strongest individual offensive capability in the team, he had to take responsibility.
Pierce's offense could hardly be described as elegant.
He took the ball at the top of the arc, leaned against Fei, then pulled up to stop sharply to the right, shooting with a bit of a fadeaway before the block arrived.
"Swish!"
His offense looked difficult, but it always went in.
Pierce roared, he had scored an important answering basket, and his confidence surged.
However, on defense, he still had to face Fei.
In the past four games, Fei had been averaging close to 40 points, which was solid proof of Pierce's defensive failure.
