Kobe Bryant through time

Chapter 85 The Battle of Detroit

Del sat beside Ling Yu quietly, without saying a word, just staring at Ling Yu carefully, as if he didn't want to disturb him.Ling Yu sat blankly, staring blankly at the front, almost in a state of ecstasy, completely oblivious to the presence of people beside him.

Not long after, other people got on the bus one after another. The bus, which had been resting for a long time, twisted its body, picked up speed, and went straight to the airport.

Next stop, Detroit.

The Detroit Pistons, a team that always likes to play team games, after two years, coach Collins accepted the Pistons for the first time last season and brought the Pistons into the playoffs, although they failed in the first round of the playoffs. Losing to the Orlando Magic, however, does not prevent people from treating them as a strong team.

grant.As Hill became more mature, the title of successor to the Flying Man had already been spread all over the streets and alleys. More points, 20 rebounds, 9 assists, such all-around data, in the 6st century, it is already a monster-level figure.

Speaking of Hill, what is more memorable is his history of tragedy, a generation of heaven's favored son, ruined by injuries, and then he became a glass man for a lifetime, alas, heaven is jealous of talents.However, when he moved to Phoenix later, the Suns doctor seemed to come up with a stroke of magic, which ignited Hill's second spring. Although he failed to bring him back to the top, for Hill, who loves the stadium, this is enough.

Let's talk about this Pistons, not only the aggressive Hill, but also Joe.Thomas, and Allen.Houston, these are very powerful figures, and their existence also laid the foundation for the Pistons playoffs.

This game will definitely be a fierce battle. Will the Lakers win or the Pistons will add another six-game winning streak to their 5-game winning streak?
There was a lot of pressure in this game. In order for the players to be in 100% condition, the Lakers arrived in Detroit one day in advance, so as to avoid the fatigue of traveling and traveling, and not being able to play well.

At around 6:[-] p.m., the Lakers arrived at a hotel in Detroit. After the team doctor briefly talked about the diet, everyone went back to their room to rest.

Tomorrow will be a bloody battle.

Del frowned, took out the tactical board, and started to draw.

Before the game, the team will always watch some opponents' games, find out the characteristics of their tactics, as well as the characteristics of each individual, so as to find a way to deal with it.This time was no exception. At night, everyone gathered in Del's room, watched the Pistons' game video, and discussed with each other.

Of course, some of them didn't speak, and Ling Yu was one of them. He didn't say a word from the time he came in to the time he went out, but just watched quietly, thinking about his own affairs.

grant.Hill's talent is awe-inspiring, but the peak period is too short, otherwise he will definitely dominate the entire league.

Ling Yu frowned, staring at the video with a sigh.

The video was not much, and it was over in over an hour. Del said briefly, waved his hand, and everyone dispersed.

"Take a good rest and get up for training tomorrow."

"Well! Good night, Del."

"Bye-Bye."

Ling Yu was still silent, smiled at Del, turned around and walked back, seemingly calm, but this made Del worried, couldn't help frowning, and his expression became serious.

That night, everyone slept very comfortably. This may be due to the bumps along the way, which made them tired and fell asleep in the end.

Ling Yu was also sound asleep, and all the children came out.This night, in the past few days, I slept the best night.

The next morning, after breakfast, the Lakers rushed to the arena for training, which did not end until after 2 o'clock in the afternoon.Among them, tactics are still the most trained. Del has two lineups, one with O'Neal as the core, focusing on inside offense, and the other with Ling Yu and Eddie as the main outside offense. In terms of defense, Del focuses on rehearsing zone defense. It is to deal with the strong breakthrough impact of the Pistons.

In the afternoon, the team returned to the hotel, took a rest, and rushed to the arena again. This time, it was going to be real.

The Pistons have won five consecutive victories. With this wave of victories, they have firmly secured the third position in the Eastern Conference. The momentum can be described as aggressive, and so are the fans. The roar made the entire arena resound with a deafening sound.

Del couldn't help frowning, and called the players together again, staring at them with a serious expression, and said, "Everyone has watched their game videos, and I believe they all know their style of play."

"Physical contact and collisions are indispensable in this game. Therefore, everyone must be prepared for confrontation, don't be afraid of confrontation, and fight with them, so that we have a greater chance of winning."

"Come on! Come on, good boys!"

After speaking, Del stretched out his right hand, and the others looked at it, stretched it out too, and shouted, "Come on!!"

The game started in 3 minutes, Del looked at the time and said, "Go back!"

"Bryant, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Del called Ling Yu who was about to enter the stage, walked up with him, frowned, and said seriously: "Are you uncomfortable?"

Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, puzzled by Del's words, shook his head, and said, "No!"

"Then you look so listless." Del yelled and said, "It's been two games, and you haven't adjusted yet?"

Ling Yu looked at Del in astonishment, then frowned, sneered, and said, "I don't need to adjust my state, I'm in the best state right now."

"I hope so."

Del's face sank, and he walked back with his hands behind his back.

Ling Yu paused, sneered, and walked onto the court.

The Lakers' starting lineup has not changed. Eddie and Ling Yu's backcourt, O'Neal and Campbell's inside line form an absolute starting lineup.

Detroit continues to use the consistent lineup, Allen.Houston has the ball, Joe.Thomas at shooting guard, Grant Hill at small forward, Otis.Samp's inside line, this set of starters, the Pistons used it for nearly half a season, and there is nothing to say about the cooperation, and the tacit understanding is perfect.

The whistle sounded and the game began.

The Pistons took the lead in attacking, Allen.Houston carefully controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and Eddie stepped forward to mark it. At this time, Hill turned around and ran back, throwing off the defender and cutting horizontally. Allen did not hesitate, and directly handed the ball to Hill with an empty lob .

Hill took the ball without stopping, dribbled the ball with his left hand, took a big step with his right foot, and diverted in front of O'Neal.At this time, Hill took advantage of the opportunity to make a low hand, pulled his left hand back, and returned his center of gravity to his left foot, then took advantage of the opportunity to receive the ball and turned around, leaning on O'Neal, raised the ball and scored the ball.

The Pistons took the lead and scored first, followed by the Lakers' offense.

Eddie took the ball in the backcourt and carefully controlled the ball to pass the frontcourt. O'Neal actively sought a position inside and got stuck in front of Samp. It was obvious that O'Neal was about to be in position, but at this moment, Hunter slipped back in front of O'Neal, blocking Eddie's passing lane.

"Eddie, here."

Ling Yu yelled softly, and ran towards Eddie under the cover of Campbell.Eddie didn't hesitate, he flicked his hands and handed the ball to Ling Yu.

Ling Yu took the ball and trotted for two steps without any hesitation, just a pull-up leanback, simply and neatly, but the only thing missing was that the ball didn't go in, and came out after swiping twice on the basket.However, O'Neal got the rebound, he stabilized his steps, then pouted his butt, pushed away Samp's defense, took advantage of the opportunity to hit the rebound, and scored the ball, which opened the pot for the Lakers.

Right after the start of the game, it became intense. Both sides came and went, and no one would give way to the other.The Pistons relied on the strong impact of Hill and Thomas to ravage the Lakers' basket; the Lakers used O'Neal and Ling Yu's "ok" combination to attack the Pistons' hinterland.For a while, the two sides fought inextricably, and the battle between brothers lasted for a quarter and a half.

The starters are not evenly matched, so the only option is to fight for the bench.Del puts on Horry, Fisher, Clausey, and Knight.Collins seemed to be interested in Del's tacit understanding, and he also replaced the substitute, took a break in the starting lineup, and then competed with the Lakers' starting lineup later.

"Come on, play your own strength and believe in yourself."

Del clenched his fists and roared.

"it is good!",

Huo Li and the others gritted their teeth and shouted vigorously, but also clenched their fists, feeling as if they were learning to fight to the end.

Fisher bit his lip and walked up with a frown.

The game continued, players from both sides returned to the court, the referee blew the whistle, and the Lakers sent the ball out of the backcourt.

Fisher dribbles, the others run, spinning around, looking for an open spot.

"Derek."

Horry yelled and ran towards Fisher.

Fisher frowned, ignored Horry, his face sank, and he dribbled the ball slowly.

Fisher is going it alone.

Ling Yu's heart sank, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and his expression became more serious.

Sure enough, as Ling Yu expected, Fisher accelerated towards the basket with a stride, then made a sudden brake, changed hands and dribbled the ball under his crotch, shaking the defensive player out of focus, and then Fisher stopped the ball, After a little adjustment, a mid-range jumper, the ball was steadily scored.

nice shot!

As soon as he scored a goal on the field, Fisher seemed very excited and waved his hands vigorously.

snort!There's nothing to be excited about.

Ling Yu sneered, and stopped looking at Fisher, and this action happened to be seen by Del, and Del couldn't help frowning and thinking.

In the Christmas game, Fisher immediately became the protagonist, scoring god-level statistics and leading the Lakers to victory.However, after the game, more people said that this was just a flash in the pan, just a rainbow after the rain.Fisher was furious about this. During the press conference, he threw down harsh words and said, "Hmph! Next time you will know whether it is a flash in the pan."

Such clamor must be full of confidence.At this point, what Fisher wants to do most is to prove himself and make those media have nothing to say.

"Horry, give me the ball."

Fisher roared and ran towards Horry.Horry was refreshing and passed the ball directly.Fisher took the ball, leaned down slowly, frowned, and stared at the defender with a serious expression. After a while, he slowly dribbled the ball.At this time, the other Lakers players had already pulled away, and there was almost an open area in front of them.

Are you coming again?
Ling Yu couldn't bear the confusion in his heart, frowned and looked over.

　Good morning everyone, eat well, drink well, sleep well, and eat well!
