NBA Building Cardinals

Chapter 122 Changes brought about by defense

Without a timeout, the Pistons were forced to serve in the backcourt, and Bickerstaff shouted loudly:

"Expand the defensive range, defend the whole court, stick it up, stick it up!"

Obviously, the Pistons did not have a timeout, and Bickerstaff was off the court, wanting the players to create more pressure on the Pistons.

Let them waste more time between dribbling and finding teammates.

Because there are only more than 20 seconds left in the time, as long as these times are exhausted, the Bobcats will be the winner of this game.

After Hunter got the ball, facing House's defense, he protected the ball and moved towards the half court. When he saw the opportunity, he directly transferred the ball to Prince outside the three-point line.

Prince received the ball and faced Ariza's close defense, and there was no room for shooting at all.

Originally, Ariza's wingspan was good enough to allow him to cover the attacker's vision as much as possible on the defensive end.

At this time, there was not much time left, and Ariza posted it up with the whole person, and made enough interference for Prince without fouling,

There is no way for him to easily complete the shot.

At the critical moment, Ariza hit the ball with one hand, and the ball dropped from Prince's hand. Prince was shocked at the time, and hurriedly competed with Ariza on the ground.

The Pistons at this time can no longer afford this kind of mistake. If the ball is broken by Ariza, it is equivalent to declaring the Pistons a loss in this game.

As the two people entangled on the ground, the ball was hit out of bounds by whom.

After the two got up, they immediately indicated to the referee that it was the other party who did it.

The referee blew to stop the game, because the referee's penalty was that the ball was touched by Ariza, and the Pistons played the ball in the frontcourt.

The penalty given by the side referee was that the Bobcats played the ball in the backcourt after the last touch by Prince.

Amidst the booing of the fans at the scene, the opinions given by the two referees were inconsistent, so they had to go to the technical stage to watch the replay.

After all, at this stage of the game, any penalty can directly affect the trend of the game.

There are still 17 seconds left before the end of the game.

Three referees went to the replay center and applied to view the replay of the ball just now.

In the NBA's regulations, when the referee chooses to judge the ownership of the ball through the playback center.

If the ownership of the ball is vague, or even if it is replayed, it is difficult to judge.

The referee only has the right to give opinions, and the final result will be decided by the replay center, not the referee.

This provision is to prevent the referee from manipulating the game too much.

The playback on the technical table showed that after the ball fell to the ground, Prince and Ariza fought hard.

In the end, both of them fell to the ground to fight for the ownership of the ball.

After several replays, it was finally determined that Ariza hit the ball in the last hit, so the ball was the Pistons' frontcourt ball.

"Appreciate~"

Even though there was no problem with the penalty of the ball, the fans at home still booed it as usual.

It is intended to put enough pressure on the Pistons in this way.

The Pistons served the ball in the frontcourt. With the help of the pick-and-roll, Prince ran out to catch the basketball. After receiving the ball, he took advantage of Ariza to bypass the screen in time.

Prince shot directly from outside the three-point line. After all, at this time, time is too precious for the Pistons.

Bang~
The basketball hit the basket, and Prince's suspenseful shot failed to bring a glimmer of life to the Pistons.

Okafor received the defensive rebound again in the low post.

And as the goal failed to score, the Pistons were not fouling on the court.

Because of the six-point difference, it is already impossible to be evened out.

Okafor passed the ball to Duhon, who dribbled the ball through half court and stood in the middle of the field waiting for the end of the game.

The Bobcats bench has stood up early to celebrate.

Bickerstaff also adjusted the sleeves of his hands and loosened his tie by the way.

After all, this kind of ball really makes people feel nervous.

With the suspense of the whole game gone, the home fans all stood up and gave the Bobcats players applause.

In just the past few days, the Bobcats once again faced the defending champion Pistons at home.

Now that the upset defended the victory at home, they won the team's second victory this season.

As the final whistle sounded, Du Hong also threw the ball to the referee on the sidelines, and celebrated by high-fiving his teammates on the field, with smiles on everyone's faces.

Especially Du Hong, who came to the Bobcats for the first time in this game, performed very well.

The defense against Hamilton in the whole game can be said to be impeccable.

出场了33分钟的杜洪，本场比赛7投3中，三分线外3中1，拿下了7分。

However, he contributed 6 assists, and at the critical moment at the end of the game, he hit a three-pointer with a big heart, which established the Bobcats' victory in one fell swoop.

The most important thing is Duhon's defense against Hamilton in this game.

Facing Duhon's dog-skin plaster-like defense, Hamilton made only 11 of 4 shots throughout the game.

Only scored 9 points and 2 rebounds, and it was Hamilton's offensive threat that was strangled.

Only then did the Bobcats beat the Pistons in an upset at home.

Du Hong in this game can definitely be said to have contributed a lot.

In addition, another rookie, Ariza, also recovered in this game.

全场7投3中，全部是三分出手，拿到9分4篮板2抢断的数据。

And also on the defensive end, giving Wallace enough pressure.

If it weren't for Prince's bursting state in this game, relying on the Bobcats' defensive attitude in this game, they would definitely win the Pistons early.

In addition to the excellent defense of Duhon and Ariza.

The biggest contributor to defeating the defending champion Pistons in this game is of course Okafor.

Facing the defense of Milicic, Wallace, and McDyess in turn.

Okafor is still killing the Quartet inside the Pistons.

全场比赛出场了37分钟，16投11中，罚球7中5，砍下了27分14篮板的大两双数据。

It is also Okafor's excellent offensive performance that can help the Bobcats keep suppressing the Pistons.

Veteran Steve Smith on the bench also made a huge contribution in this game.

After the main players on both sides rested, it was Smith who led the second team, and the Pistons tightly bit the score.

全场比赛史密斯11中6，三分球6中2，贡献出14分3助攻的稳定数据。

This is also one of the contributors to the Bobcats' ability to upset the Pistons at home.

With the victory of this game, the Bobcats' current record has also come to two wins and eight losses.

While ending his team's eight-game losing streak, it also means that the team will usher in the comeback of Buffalo White in the next game.

The comeback of Buffalo White can also greatly solve the current urgent needs of the Bobcats inside.

Although due to injuries, White's playing time has been restricted by Liu Rui in the team.

Because in the previous life, it was precisely because of frequent confrontations with heavyweight insiders that White had to withdraw from the league early because of his scarred body.

But the name of the big buffalo is not in vain.

This is definitely good news for the Bobcats...
