I just want to lie down and win

Chapter 93 Role Swap, Revenge Walker! (4000, please subscribe)

On December 12, just after the Pistons had made initial tactical adjustments, the Chicago Bulls hit them head-on.

"It shouldn't be difficult for you today. The Bulls Twin Towers are absent due to injuries. The Bulls will not defend you inside. Show your strength as much as possible!"

Before the game started, Larry Brown patted Huo Song on the arm as a sign of encouragement.

If Huo Song were shorter, Larry Brown might be able to pat Huo Song on the shoulder, but there is no way now.

The Bulls have always been a big team since the three consecutive champions Jordan left.

Finally, in 01, two high-ranking inside players, Tyson Chandler and Eddie Curry, were selected, but they still failed to get rid of the fate of the tank team.

It stands to reason that the rookies have been watching for three years, and the Bulls and Twin Towers should also show off their power.

But not even half of the role of the Spurs twin towers.

The offense is not good, and the defense is average.Together with the Bulls and Twin Towers, it is a 20+10 All-Star insider.

That is to say, in the east where there are no inside stars, occasionally they can bully ordinary inside players.

However, recently, the Bulls and Twin Towers have been absent due to injuries.

The Bulls originally had a little advantage in the interior, but now they are gone.

Facing the weak Bulls inside, if Huo Song didn't break out to 30+10 today, he would be ashamed to say that he is the second in command of a championship contending team like the Pistons.

"Is this really a rookie? It's really scary!"

"It's already hard to deal with Ben Wallace, and another pick at No. [-], how do you grab this rebound?"

"Obviously the movement is very simple, even I can do it, why can't I prevent him?"

At the beginning of the game, the two sides showed a one-sided posture.

The so-called rebounder's world.

The Pistons started out defensively. Even with the adjusted offensive core, there is still no problem with the defense.

The stronger the Pistons' defense, the more serious the Bulls will be.

It just so happened that at this time, Da Ben and Huo Song occupied the basket, as if they had built two walls in the penalty area.

The height and strength of the Bulls' inside players simply cannot enter the wall.

As for rebounds, Da Ben and Huo Song wove a net under the basket. The rebounds are like fish, no matter how they bounce or jump, they will eventually fall into the hands of Da Ben and Huo Song. .

"Don't worry about shooting, there are still offensive rebounds!" Huo Song took off another offensive rebound. In the past, Huo Song took off again without saying a word, trying to score the ball under the basket.

But now, Huo Song, as the team's offensive core and second-in-command, needs to bear more responsibilities than just throwing the ball into the basket.

Within the scope of his ability, Huo Song needs to drive his teammates and help them score together.

Once Huo Song can share the ball while scoring, his teammates can score better and play a wonderful performance.

Then Huo Song can truly secure his position as the second leader of the championship team, and truly possess the strength of an All-Star insider.

When the young sharks made Penny Hardaway play very comfortably, it was also with O'Neal that Kobe grew up quickly.

A truly powerful superstar can make his teammates even stronger.

And Huo Song is developing in this direction.

But having said that, the offense of Hamilton and Billups is relatively stable today.

Although there are still iron strikes, the hit rate is close to 50%, which is relatively rare.

Usually there is a [-]% hit rate, which is not bad.

With a [-]% hit rate, this has the ability to score in double figures.

Therefore, Huo Song didn't care too much about the possession of the ball. He grabbed the offensive rebound and had a chance to score two points at his fingertips, but he still gave up the opportunity to other teammates.

After training for the past few days, Hamilton and Billups have recognized the reality, how to play, and how to cooperate with Da Ben and Huo Song.

After receiving Huo Song's pass, he reciprocated, hit the ball as much as possible, and gave Huo Song an assist.

"Good job!"

"The parabola is awesome!"

"If this continues, I will definitely become an All-Star!"

After his teammates scored a goal, Huo Song also performed as a leading player should. He stepped forward to encourage his teammates, continued to attack, and maintained enthusiasm and aggression.

Hamilton and Billups were obviously taken aback when they found out that the roles had been reversed.

Later, I gradually got used to it, but I didn't take it seriously, and occasionally smiled with Huo Song.

After halftime, the Pistons played one-sidedly again.

The opponent's helplessness and misery turned into a further glue for the team.

I just adjusted some tactics. Although there are not many changes in general, there must be problems.

Due to the ideal situation of the game, everyone's performance was not worse than before, or even better.

Some things are selectively forgotten.

又是三节打卡，霍嵩14投9中，罚球5投4中，稳定砍下22分16篮板5助攻。

Compared with the past, Huo Song got 5 assists, which is not easy.

The number of assists reached 5, which also shows that Huo Song's influence in the game has become different from before. Huo Song is winning in a more team way.

After defeating the Bulls, the Pistons immediately moved to the next location-Indianapolis.

The first game of the Pistons this season was brought by the Pacers. The conflict between Larry Brown and Huo Song at the beginning of the season was completely detonated in this game.

It's hard to say that Huo Song has not been influenced by the Pacers to grow to this level and achieve such a team status.

But in any case, Huo Song will help the Pistons beat the Pacers next.

You know, the Pacers are the third team in the East!Right behind the piston.

If the Pistons can't even beat the Pacers during the regular season, then the Pistons will not consider the Lakers first.

First think about whether to solve the Nets or the Pacers first!

On December 12, the Pistons had been preparing for the battle in Indianapolis for two days, and finally waited for the moment to avenge the Pacers.

The game officially started, and Huo Song beat Jeff Foster with a jump ball in the middle circle.

Billups and Prince pick and roll, holding the ball into the paint.

Because Jermaine O'Neal assisted in the defense, Billups was not sure about his own offense, so he immediately passed the ball to Huo Song at the basket.

Huo Song didn't intend to pass any more. He pushed Jeff Foster away and scored the ball forcefully.

Seeing this, the Pacers immediately served from the bottom line and played fast breaks in an attempt to consume the physical strength of the Pistons starters.

Hamilton will certainly not be affected, but Huo Song's staying power may be reduced.

It can't be seen in the first three quarters, but in the fourth quarter, the core players are not physically strong enough to support the full critical moment, which is still terrible.

Obviously, Rick Carlisle, who has already come to the Pacers, is not idle. In order to avenge the Pistons, he is always paying attention to the situation of the Pistons.

Before other teams noticed that the Pistons' offensive core had changed to Huo Song, Carlisle had already made the Pacers players deal with it.

On the surface, the Pistons are not afraid to play fast breaks with other teams, but if they really want to fight, Huo Song's influence will definitely decline.

The Pacers are also not afraid of playing fast breaks, so this move will kill the Pistons.

Having said that, the Pistons players actively returned to defense, and the Pacers' first fast break did not have any effect. They could only hand the ball to Artest and let him hold the ball and rush to the basket.

Artest plays with the ball, the team's second scoring point, the basket, mid-range shots, and three-pointers.

If it weren't for the Pacers to have a better O'Neal, Artest, who can be called offensive and defensive, will have further possibilities.

After Artest passed Prince, Big Ben had to defend from the basket.

Artest had a bit of a head shot. Facing Daben's defense, he wanted to force a layup, but it turned out to be a shot.

Big Ben stopped Artest, but there were O'Neal and Foster under the basket.

The Pacers wanted to grab offensive rebounds, and Huo Song was in a one-on-two disadvantage under the basket.

However, Huo Song still took advantage of his tall horse and longer wingspan, so he jumped suddenly, stretched out his hand to grab the sky, and successfully protected the defensive rebound.

At this moment, the three of the Pacers staggered under the basket and hadn't stood still, and the Pistons had a chance to make a switch.

Huo Song passed the ball without saying a word. Although the Pacers actively returned to the defense, the three outsiders of the Pistons immediately cooperated with the fast break.

Billups took the lead to kill the basket with the ball, and then returned the carbine to pass the ball to Prince who followed him.

Prince pulled the bar and dunked the ball.

The Pistons started this wave very well.

However, Carlisle said it was not time for a timeout.

The Pacers re-launched the offense. Under the defense of Hamilton, who is also an off-ball master, Reggie Miller still found a shot space with experience, and pulled the morale of the Pacers back by relying on a stable mid-range shot.

The most difficult thing in a strong-strong dialogue is that the defense is too strong, and one of the parties cannot score in sports games.

Although the Pacers are still lagging behind, the situation is different if someone can stand up and score in sports.

At least the problem is not too big, as long as one round is defended, it is expected to overtake the score.

Naturally, the Pistons will not let the Pacers get what they want.

Billups pretended to dribble slowly and looked for an opportunity to make a shot, but taking advantage of Kenny Anderson's inattention, he suddenly shot a cold arrow and made a three-pointer.

In fact, when Billups hits a small guard like Kenny Anderson, he can just hit back directly.

And Kenny Anderson also knew that Billups could not be prevented from the front, so he was more defensive against Billups' breakthrough, allowing Billups to shoot or pass the ball.

Billups must be only occasionally. If Billups can kill the game by shooting, he will not be a good No. [-] show and be traded every three to five.

But today, Billups's three-point shot is still very accurate.

After hitting a three-pointer, the point difference directly widened to 5 points, which put a certain amount of pressure on the Pacers.

After all, three-pointers are not a conventional weapon for outside players these days. It usually takes three rounds to chase a 5-point gap, which is not easy.

Seeing that the field was in an unfavorable situation, Carlisle on the sidelines gave Kenny Anderson a gesture, asking him to convey to other people on the field, and then implement tactics that can score the ball.

Soon, Kenny Anderson reached the basket with the help of O'Neal's pick-and-roll, but as soon as he stepped into the penalty area, he distributed the ball to Artest at a 45-degree angle on the strong side.

Artest continued to attack the basket with the ball, Daben was a bit unable to defend against it, so Huo Song could only come out from the basket and put on a pretentious stop.

When Da Ben helped defend, Artest passed the ball to O'Neal on the other side.

Jermaine O'Neal catches the ball and makes a shot. Prince pounces, but he is a little short of height, and Jermaine O'Neal ignores it.

In the past two years, Jermaine O'Neal has just entered his peak period, and his near-range and mid-range shooting percentages are both around 40%. The key is that his output is still very large.

This also means that Jermaine O'Neal's grasp of CIC is still relatively large.

Not to mention that this time it was still an open shot.

"Jermaine O'Neal hit a 2-pointer, and the point difference narrowed to 3 points!"

"Next, we still need to pay attention to defense. Playing against the Pistons, defense is the most important thing!"

The players on the field will naturally not be unclear about things that the on-site commentators know.

Not only the Pacers need to strengthen their defense, but the Pistons are also working hard on the defensive end.

Of course, in the next offensive round of the Pistons, it is natural to find a way to throw the ball in first.

Because Hamilton ran out of the opportunity, Billups immediately passed the ball.

But today's Hamilton doesn't feel very good. During the collision with Reggie Miller, Hamilton's state was still affected.

The mid-range shot hit the iron, and the offensive rebound was not grasped because the rebound bounced far away. The Pistons were forced to follow the Pacers and start running back and forth.

Duang——

Let alone anyone, Artest pushed a chasing three-pointer, but it was a big hit.

Although the offensive rebound was snatched by Reggie Miller, it did not convert into a score.

The Pistons' man-to-man defense was very good. The Pacers kept breaking through and hitting the basket, trying to tear the Pistons' defense, but failed.

In the last 4 seconds of offensive time, Artest took over and had to make a strong shot.

Another iron!
Artest's face also gradually turned the color of iron.

This time Big Ben finally protected the defensive rebound, and the Pistons launched a new round of offensive.

Billups broke through to score the ball, Prince hit the basket and scored the ball with a small throw.

The point difference came back again, and Reggie Miller tried to use a three-pointer to help the team clear the siege, but the feel was mediocre, and another wave of possession was given away for nothing.

The Pistons played steadily, relying on Hamilton to run without the ball to attract the defense, and Prince, who pretended to hand-off on the sideline pick-and-roll, suddenly turned and rushed to the basket.

O'Neal defended for a while, Prince hoisted the ball to the basket, Huo Song immediately took off, alley-oop, and violently abused the basket.

Huo Song scored the crucial 2 points in the simplest but most shocking way.

After the point difference widened to 7 points, Carlisle could no longer sit idly by.

Quickly call a timeout, take a break, and then draw a tactic to see if the point difference can be reduced to less than 5 points.

After the timeout, it turns out that Carlisle's on-the-spot arrangement is still very good.

The Pacers scored another 2 points as soon as they came up, but they didn't quench their thirst.

The Pistons repeated their old tricks and handed over the ball to Huo Song to deal with it by breaking through the basket, and easily pulled the point difference back to 7 points.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, O'Neal had to take the initiative to switch to Huo Song.

And this also means that Huo Song is about to compete with the All-Star insider one-on-one on the field.

"Defend against me? Are you confident in preventing me?"
