Chapter 314 It's Late But Arrived
5 month 8 day.

The Cavaliers' first game against the Pistons at home!
This round of the series has already attracted the attention of the entire sports world before it even started.

Countless commentators and media reporters talked about the level of expectation for the matchup between the Cavaliers and the Pistons, even stronger than the Spurs playing the Mavericks in the West, and the Suns playing the Lakers.

"I don't think the Cavaliers can be the opponents of the Pistons, and I can even predict that the Cavaliers' combination of king bombs will be directly blocked by the Pistons in the next game.

Just like Arenas and Jamison in the last round of the Wizards. "

Big Mouth Barkley naturally joined the debate this time, saying so.

Cole on the side couldn't help reminding, saying: "You said in the last round that the Cavaliers would be swept 0:4, but instead they won the game 4:1."

Barkley chuckled, and continued to disapprove of Bilian, "Steve, forget about that, it was just an accident.

After all, the Bucks are indeed weaker than the Cavaliers on the bright side, so it is not surprising that they can be eliminated quickly.

But the Pistons are different, they are a team that has won a championship! "

Regarding this point, Cole also nodded in agreement and said: "The Cavaliers are indeed no match for the Pistons in terms of lineup background and playoff experience.

But the counterattack they played in the last round of the series is really pleasing to the eye.

Therefore, the next series must be a contest of spear and shield. "

At this time, the game on the field has also begun.

Pistons starting lineup, point guard Billups, shooting guard Hamilton, small forward Tayshaun Prince, power forward Rasheed Wallace, center Ben.

Midfield jump ball!

Big Z took the lead first.

James held the ball steadily across the half court, and Prince defended him in a good defensive position.

Neither too forward nor too backward, Prince and James have always maintained a position that can go up and down.

Big Z is still familiar with pulling the outside line to pick and roll James, which is also the most common tactic played by the Cavaliers in the first quarter of this season.

It's just that when most teams choose to break the Cavaliers' pick-and-roll, they let the defender squeeze through in advance to avoid giving James a chance to play big or small.

"Hey! The Pistons chose to switch defenses every pick-and-roll!"

After Zhao Hao saw the defensive changes on the field, he frowned slightly and was a little puzzled.

Let the center guard James, even if he will be beaten so that his mother will not recognize him.

As long as James rushes to the basket, he can easily pass the big man.

Then there is no barrier on the inside, unless the defender in the bottom corner is arranged to come over as quickly as possible to help defend and block James.

But at the same time, the bottom line is also empty!

The opponent's defensive formation will be broken instantly!

This is why the Cavaliers don't need offensive tactics. With James, that is their own system.

"It stands to reason that with the defensive strength of the Pistons, they shouldn't make such a low-level mistake."

Zhao Hao was still wondering, but at this moment James on the court had already started killing inside.

But Big Ben followed without losing his position at all!
And in terms of defensive area and defensive position, Big Ben is even better than Prince who defends James!

"Hey, I almost forgot about this [-]th DPOY!"

It's no wonder that the Pistons dared to switch defenses every pick-and-roll. They really have such confidence with their big base.

Although Daben plays the center forward position, his height is actually only 201cm.

At this height, it is even lower than James's 203cm.

In addition, before entering the NBA, Daben played the forward position, and most of the defenders were small forwards and power forwards who can run and jump well.

Although Daben has already gained weight and changed to a center forward, those defensive awareness and experience are still there!
James hit the ball into the penalty area and suddenly saw that Big Ben was still covering him.

This ball made him a little embarrassed.

Insiders want to get stronger?

This is a bit unrealistic, even if he is James.

Want to spread the word?

The remaining four players of the Pistons all covered their teammates, and the pass was guaranteed to be a mistake!
It's dead ball.

At this time, Zhao Hao naturally discovered this, and hurried back and forth to the top of the arc to respond.

James made a lob pass and Zhao Hao received the ball smoothly.

"Looks like it's time to play singles in advance!"

At this time, it was Hamilton who was able to run dead dogs to defend Zhao Hao.

Although Hamilton's defense is only considered low-to-medium among the Pistons, it is also an above-average player in the league.

But having already seen Zhao Hao's flashy breakthrough skills, Hamilton was sure that it would be difficult for him to restrain Zhao Hao.

Therefore, instead, he boldly chose to defend Zhao Hao closely and block his outside line.

And decisively gave up the hard-to-limit breakthrough.

"Since I can't prevent the breakthrough, then I can't prevent it at all!

In this way, it is not easy to take care of one thing and lose another, and it is difficult to guard against any point. "

Zhao Hao, who was already experienced, saw this defensive choice, and naturally took advantage of the trend to pass through Hamilton by half a body.

Going to kill the basket!
At this time, Rasheed Wallace and Big Ben of the Pistons suddenly closed in!

This is the Iron Barrel Array!
This is the first quarter of the game, and the Pistons took the iron barrel formation that they are based on.

Therefore, they were ready to fight with the Cavaliers as soon as they came up.

And this is their strength in the playoffs!
"This ball can't be passed anymore!"

Knowing that most of the time of this round has passed, Zhao Hao knew that this ball must end in his hands.

Therefore, when facing the double-book combination, he still chose to force a layup.

A folded basket after catching the ball with one hand!
This layup is Tianxiu, and it is extremely difficult.

It's just that Zhao Hao still found room to shoot, but the defensive pressure given by the double book was too great.

The ball is still wide!
Big Ben grabbed the rebound, and Billups quickly asked for the ball to counterattack.

After all, the Pistons are not good at offense, so they can only cherish every opportunity to switch offense and score the ball.

But the Cavaliers' defense is not bad either!
James took the lead and retreated early, and Zhao Hao followed quickly.

Just the two of them are enough to resist the counter attack of most teams.

At this time, Billups didn't dare to fight against James and Zhao Hao, so he quickly suppressed the rhythm and waited for his teammates to come back.

Land battle!

Hamilton started to run a marathon on the court, and Zhao Hao naturally followed closely.

On the court, most of the Cavaliers players' eyes were also firmly fixed on Hamilton.

They know very well that Hamilton is the scoring leader of the Pistons.

As long as Hamilton is prevented to death, a large part of the Pistons' offense will be cut off.

But this ball, beyond everyone's expectations, Billups did not take the initiative to find Hamilton.

Instead, after the opponent pulled Zhao Hao away, he played a pick-and-roll with Rashid on the strong side!
Gooden chose to switch defenses, but at the same time Rashid went straight down.

There's an opportunity inside!
Swish!
Billups passed the ball quickly and in time!

Rashid landed in the penalty area, turned around and went straight to dunk.

Looking back, Zhao Hao couldn't help but gasp in his heart.

This ball is going to be hit!
But the big Z protective frame is here, and it is also very timely!

The big Z with a height of 221cm can block Rasheed's dunk with just a raise of his hand.

With Rashid's height, it might be a bit of a dream to score against the big Z.

Zhao Hao, who saw this at first, wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but in the next second Rashid passed the ball again.

The Pistons can play such a smooth offense!

Big Ben arrived late, and after receiving a wonderful pass from his good brother Rashid, he took off directly and dunked with both hands hanging on the frame!
