You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 1067
Game1, the Pistons lost unexpectedly, and everyone thought the Knicks would have something to play this year.

This feeling lasted only two days.

Game2, Mo Mengchen scored a triple-double, and the Pistons pulled back a victory at home.

Even if the Pistons win, the outside world is very happy, because being able to steal the home court advantage from the Pistons is considered a success for the Knicks, who are already at an absolute disadvantage.

In the third battle, the battlefield moved to Madison Garden.

The Knicks used the same strategy, focusing on one big and four small.

It's just that tonight, Mo Mengchen's long-range shooting feels unusually good.As soon as his hand feels better, Curry is no longer like a fool who only knows how to eat cakes under the basket.

Mo Mengchen's performance is the vane of the Pistons. As long as he does not perform abnormally, the Pistons will be the king of the East.

The Knicks copied the strategy of the first game, and naturally wanted to copy the success of the first game, but the Pistons didn't give it a chance.

Since the Knicks had the same strategy, Camby also kept his eyes on Mo Mengchen, so Mo Mengchen had to reduce his breakthrough.

The difference is that the three-pointers missed in the first quarter were all made tonight.

Same strategy, different results.

Game1's victory cannot be repeated tonight.

"Dor.Mo made 11 of 10 shots tonight, and the Knicks lost at home."

The result of the home defeat was that the Pistons led by a big score of 2 to 1, and the home court advantage that the Knicks had worked so hard to win no longer existed.

In the fourth game, the Knicks fought bloody battles.

same strategy.

Although this strategy will not work as long as Mo Mengchen feels good, it is a way to effectively reduce Mo Mengchen's shots.

In order to control Mo Mengchen's shots, the Knicks need to use the strength of the whole team.

In the fourth game, on this basis, Hardaway asked Mo Mengchen for a large number of singles.

The offense is handed over to Hardaway, and the defense is handed over to the team.

The Knicks have been deadlocked with the Pistons in this way.

After most of the halftime, the red-eyed two sides were biting the score tightly, and neither could shake off the other.

This way of fighting is the depth of the lineups of both sides.

The 35-year-old Hardaway couldn't maintain his opening efficiency in the fourth quarter, but Mo Mengchen was able to revitalize the whole team by passing the ball.

First, he broke through the defense line one-on-one and gave Anthony a three-pointer from the outside.

Hardaway opened the singles and missed a jumper with an emergency stop.

Mo Mengchen grabbed the rebound and quickly countered with a one-stop dunk.

The Knicks were blocked until 24 seconds after the buzzer shot and missed again.

Mo Mengchen grabbed the defensive rebound again and made a long pass to Manu Ginobili. The Argentine gave up two points and chose a three-pointer. He pulled up directly and hit a three-pointer.

This game related to the fate of the Knicks was taken away by a wave.

114 is better than 102
The Knicks lost two games in a row at home and were won three games in a row by the Pistons. Now they have stood on the edge of a cliff, and the match point fell into the hands of the Pistons.

"Prior to this, there have only been three major reversals in the history of the semi-finals where they fell behind 3-1."

"In the past eight years, the Pistons have repeatedly put their opponents into a 3-1 desperate situation. Only a few teams can get back a game. Most teams were eliminated in the fifth game. No team dragged the game into the seventh game. .”

The commentator on the scene talked about some extremely unfavorable records for the Knicks.

The leader of the Knicks, Penny Hardaway, who averaged 30 points per game in the semifinals, faced the media and said unyieldingly: "Before the end of the series, guessing is meaningless. Going back to seven years ago, no one would believe that the Pistons can succeed after that." Seven consecutive championships, they did it, so can we!"

"The spirit of New York is with us!"

2006 5 Month 17 Day.

Game [-] of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

When the powerhouses in the Western Conference are in a deathmatch, the Pistons are preparing to end this series and advance to the conference finals with their heads held high.

In the player tunnel, Mo Mengchen saw the players laughing at him and wanted him to say something.

"I have nothing to say." Mo Mengchen stood among them, "I plan to end the semi-finals tonight."

"Yes!"

"Very good!" Mo Mengchen stretched out his hand, "It's a pleasure to reach an agreement with you!"

After speaking, Mo Mengchen entered the arena with his teammates.

The Pistons won these three games in a row, but they just told the fans from the side that the first game was just an accident.

Dor.Mo's occasional doze off, and the Pistons' rare eccentricity, don't mean anything.

At the beginning, the Knicks also did something surprising.

They are like the bulls in the first round, knowing that there is no hope, but fighting with all their strength.

The iron blood of the East flows through them, and what is revealed in the game is the cruelty of the last century.

Even if you are invincible, it will still make it difficult for you to advance.

The Knicks increased the intensity of the game infinitely, and it turned into a suffocating tug-of-war as soon as the game started.

For as long as 3 minutes, neither side scored.

For the Pistons, they tried every scoring point. Even Mo Mengchen singled out a three-pointer. The ball flew out, and the Pistons retreated quickly.

"Three minutes have passed, and the 3-0 start is surprising. I am a little worried about this game." Lambiel said, "They won't score an unprecedented single quarter with 0 points, right?"

This is obviously impossible.

On the Knicks side, the ball was handed over to a totem-level figure—Penny Hardaway. He faced Mo Mengchen and attacked from the right wing.

Since the Knicks have given high-intensity confrontation, the Pistons will not be polite.

Fairness is mutual. The Knicks can play this kind of confrontation, and so can the Pistons.If you really want to play confrontation, the one who suffers must be Penny, his physical fitness cannot withstand such consumption.

It was difficult for Penny to break through the defense, and he didn't want to try a difficult shot, so he had to pass the ball to Quentin Richardson. He was under the shadow of Ginobili and couldn't get away.

It was the Knicks' All-Star center Brandela who broke the deadlock by going to the high post for a mid-range shot.

2 is better than 0
"Thank God, someone finally scored!"

The wonderful thing about the basketball court is that the stalemate is always mutual. Once someone breaks the deadlock, the other will also break it. It is a wonderful contagion.

Brand scored with his front foot, and Mo Mengchen dribbled with his back foot to keep up. Hardaway's defense did not stand still, and he scored a chasing three-pointer.

3 is better than 2
The pressure on the defensive end was initiated by the Knicks first, and the Pistons took the initiative to enter this rhythm.

They have seen too many challengers, and each challenger has a trump card strategy that is important, and they all caused trouble for the Pistons, but they were eventually learned to deal with the challenger in turn.

The Knicks put pressure on the Pistons, and the Pistons can put pressure on them.

5 is better than 2
The Knicks were defended against a turnover.

7 is better than 2
Hardaway missed a shot, but Mo Mengchen seized the opportunity to fight back.

9 is better than 2
Brand's low-post offense was double-teamed by the Pistons and intercepted the ball. Mo Mengchen counterattacked and gave Anthony a dunk.

Unimaginable defensive pressure hit instantly, and the Knicks did not expect the Pistons to exert such pressure on them in advance.

After the timeout, the Knicks chose to pull the empty side, releasing a lot of space for Hardaway to single out.

Hardaway has lost his explosive starting speed, and now he also feels the feeling that Mo Mengchen faced him for the first time back then.

What do you do when you meet someone who is faster, heavier, and more athletic than you?
Fortunately, Hardaway is not completely without advantages.

Height is a talent that will not disappear. Hardaway's years of game experience have helped him, and his continuous changes of direction have allowed him to make a gap in Mo Mengchen's defense. As long as there is a gap, he immediately gets up and throws a shot.

A fly over the fingertips, hit the backboard, bounce into the basket.

4 is better than 9
"I won't let you win the game easily." Hardaway said to Mo Mengchen.

Fortunately, we didn't feel that this game would be easy to win from the beginning.

Hardaway saw Mo Mengchen dribble the ball to the frontcourt, and after the strong and weak sides opened, he passed it to Anthony in the low post.

The Pistons have too many weapons.

Anthony gently leaned on his opponent, turned and shot, 11 to 4.

Hardaway held the ball and attacked again. This time Mo Mengchen didn't want to completely defend him, but specifically blocked his right hand and let go of his left hand.Hardaway technically had no dead ends, Mo Mengchen gave him such a chance, he had no reason not to kill inside, but what was waiting for him inside was Curry, a mountain of human flesh.

After the confrontation and missed, the Pistons counterattacked again.

The opening rhythm completely fell into the hands of the Pistons.

The increase in confrontation intensity has instead become a key factor for the Pistons to open the score.
