You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 829 The Adelman Era Comes to an End

After halftime, 58 to 44, the Pistons' transformation played a miraculous effect.

"Maybe, Eddie is more suitable for starting than Brad?" Westphal wanted to hear the views of other assistant coaches.

Charlie McCann, who is the most familiar with Princeton among the assistant coaches, said: "We have always felt that the inside should be the master of Princeton, but for a long time, the masters of the Pistons have been Mo and Grant."

"Maybe we got Princeton wrong?"

"Why can't Princeton focus on the perimeter?"

Similar questions appeared in the minds of the coaching staff. They still don't know where this question will lead them, but tonight's game opened a brand new door.

Curry performed well tonight, scoring 12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and a gratifying 4 blocks in the half.

"Mo, what do you think of Eddie's performance?" The ESPN reporter in charge of the midfield interview was eager to hear words of praise for Curry from Mo Mengchen.

In order to keep Curry from being arrogant or impetuous, Mo Mengchen remained silent, only saying: "This is what he should do."

Is 12+7+2+4 in the half just the expected performance?

"This is Eddie's first start this season. He has brought vigor and talent to the Pistons. Will tonight's start be the norm in the future?"

This is also a matter of urgent concern to the outside world, as long as anyone who pays attention to the Pistons can feel it keenly.

After Curry entered the starting lineup, the Pistons played significantly better.

"It's a problem with the coaching staff." Mo Mengchen said with a faint smile, "We just play."

As long as Dor.Mo is not willing, you can never pry any information from him.

The precious halftime interview ended with Mo Mengchen's Tai Chi answer.

Time flies, and the 15-minute intermission passed quickly.

The game restarted. In order to win, the Kings went all out. It is true that the players want to get rid of Adelman, but it does not mean that they have given up the new season.

McGrady's offense is still strong, and he did not fall into a disadvantage in the dialogue with Hill.

First, he broke through with his left hand and rushed into the basket to score 2+1 from Curry's head.

Additional penalty hits, 47 to 58.

Mo Mengchen suppressed the rhythm and asked Curry to play a high pick-and-roll.

Sudden acceleration, striding into the king's encirclement, it was an obvious trap, they easily completed it, thinking that Dor.

"Are you trying to make me laugh?" Mo Mengchen looked at the encirclement mockingly, and showed a pass behind his back, expressing his contempt for the encirclement.

Hill took the ball from the outside, broke through again, and tore the defense for the second time.

In order to stop their offense, the King's defense needed to shrink again, and the third pass completely tore the defense apart.

Ginobili made a three-pointer from the outside.

61 is better than 47
"Who can this defense guard against?" Mo Mengchen backed away slowly.

In addition to the wrong system, the king's biggest problem is that the defense is also fatal.

The inside line is Divac and Nowitzki, and the outside line is Maddie Bibi Peja.

These five people, no matter who is singled out, are not good defenders, and they all need help from others, but they are too busy to take care of themselves, so how can they help others?
But relying on the offensive talents of these five people, they reached the Western Conference finals. OK's victory last year only proved the correctness of the saying "defense in the playoffs".

The King's defense is like a magic spell. Even if the head coach is changed, if this problem is not solved, it will still be very difficult for the Lakers.

As for the current situation of the Lakers?It's not much better. OK's intensified conflict between the bosses has worsened the impact than last season, but the record is not bad. Currently, it has 8 wins in 5 games and ranks in the forefront of the Western Conference.

Divac stood outside the three-point line, and the staff moved.

This is Princeton, and the king rarely played Princeton tactics.

McGrady received Nowitzki's off-ball screen and cut in, and Divac made a lob pass like a defender.

There is no problem with the passing and positioning, but he doesn't take Hill's defense seriously, and the pass is destroyed by the jump of Devil Mountain.

The Pistons are more eager than the Kings to compete for floor balls.

"This is the difference between the champion and the runner-up in the division!"

Rashid savagely held the ball in his arms, not allowing anyone to come near.

The Kings wanted to go for a jump ball, but Rasheed threw the ball to Mo Mengchen before that, and the Pistons counterattack started immediately.

Mo Mengchen patted the ball vigorously, only Bibby was close to his position.

He slowed down, let the white devil who didn't want to catch up with him, and then entered the restricted area together.

Mo Mengchen jumped up with all his strength and exploded like gunpowder, causing Bibby's defensive foul and scoring the ball by the way.

"#!#"

The scene booed Bibby, and the fans thought he made a stupid defense.

Bibby and the Kings were like a couple who slept in one bed but had another person on their minds.

Adelman's dismissal is as loud as Bibby's trade rumors.

This shot just added fuel to the fire.

Mo Mengchen went to the free throw line and made a free throw with his left hand.

64 is better than 47
After this, Adelman showed mercy and replaced Bibby, who had no interest in fighting, and the player named Martin Cliffs came off the bench.

Cliffs is the only 2000 rookie in history. He changed four teams in his 6-year NBA career. He reappeared in people's sight because of a sexual assault case.

Mo Mengchen made Cliffs shudder.

Cliffs didn't dare to dribble too much in front of Mo Mengchen, and after getting the ball, he wanted to find the star of the team. His fear was too obvious, and he was almost treated as a soft persimmon.

Since he was so scared, Dor.Mo has always had the habit of forcing people to jump over the wall, so he chose to press close to the body and press.

Cliffs didn't show blood in this confrontation. He passed the ball in a hurry. I don't know how similar this flustered look is to the victim who was brutally sexually assaulted by him later?

His passing is terrible, the rush of the pass does not look people at all.

The ball was broken on the spot.

Mo Mengchen immediately accelerated his run and made a fast break.

Rashid took the ball and threw it forward. Mo Mengchen caught the ball in the frontcourt, gliding and dunking, and counterattacked to score.

66 is better than 47
"Two teams that haven't been in good form lately, and tonight seemed to show the gap between the champion and the divisional runner-up."

"The Pistons clearly want to end this predicament more than the Kings."

The dislike of the TNT celestial group towards the king is visible to the naked eye. Not only have these people wasted their talents, but they have no fighting spirit.

Being beaten like this by the Pistons, the resistance is minimal.

Adelman didn't adjust much, the team was out of control, and he became a head coach without control.

For him, if he gets slaughtered by the Pistons at home, his time with the Kings will be over.

Even if the team has not yet decided on the candidate for the new coach, it will let him step down immediately.

In less than half a minute, the Pistons first successfully defended against the Kings for 24 seconds.

Then find the King's biggest flaw on the offensive end, attack ferociously, and extend the lead to 21 points.

The morale of the army is uneven, the defense is weak, there is no strategy, and the core is not established.

Each of the four major problems is fatal, but the king has them all.

Halfway through the third quarter, the game entered garbage time.

Both sides did not replace the main force. In order to maintain the suspense on the surface and continue the game, Westphal dispatched personnel and played brilliantly.

They played tactics like magic, with Mo Mengchen and Hill as the core, moving, interspersed, and linked in various ways.

Only relying on running positions, Mo Mengchen scored 15 points in the third quarter, 32 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists in the game, and missed a second in the fourth quarter.

The fourth quarter was standard garbage time, and Mo Mengchen just sat on the sidelines and watched the show, because the Kings hadn't replaced the main players, so the Pistons could only play around and play with them.

Hill also scored a full 30 points on the court, and the King tacitly called a timeout and replaced all the main players.

With 7 minutes left before the end of the game, the game entered garbage time.

"The Adelman era of the Kings is coming to an end."

"I think it won't be long before they hear about a change of head coach."

"This kind of mess is hard for anyone to clean up."

TNT Tiantuan murmured, and it didn't prevent the substitutes of both sides from making special moves during garbage time.
