Then, last season, they decided to play together, caring little ______ money and fame. Garnett and Allen ______ Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process.
It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the best athletes in the world. They treat every second of every ______ as it is the NBA championship. If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. Therefore, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their ______ effort too.
Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He used to shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and ______ defense(防卫). His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that _______. When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost ______, Garnett, Pierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldn’t just sit on the bench. ______, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. They wanted to ______ their friends and teammates.
