Thanos

Chapter 156
In the second half, the Pistons finally began to make some adjustments.

First, the defensive titan Antonio McDyess played instead of Big Ben, and the offensive No. 1 Carlos Arroyo played instead of Billups.

At the same time, the Lakers have also changed.

Vujacic replaced Atkins and veteran Divac replaced Mihm.

The game continues.

Arroyo's speed is extremely fast. Accelerating directly after getting the ball is a breakthrough.

But Vujacic seems to have been prepared, clinging to death.

The thin Vujacic is not slow at all, and has a height advantage over Arroyo. Arroyo's one-step forced shot inside the three-point line was seriously disturbed, and he directly shot a three-point shot.

Ye Heping received the ball and the Lakers attacked.

Divac responded from the free throw line area, and McDyess could only come out to defend.

McDyess is a strong No. 4 and No. 5. He has been selected as an All-Star starter in his career and entered the best team. He is also strong because his height is 206 cm, not the 206 cm that is fake at first glance.

In addition, McDyess's scoring ability is much stronger than Daben's, and his mid-range shot is a scoring weapon.

But none of this worked.

In front of Divac, the originator of supporting center, the height of 206 cm is really not enough.

Divac, who is 218 centimeters tall, directly raised and hit.

McDyess couldn't reach it standing up, and he didn't dare to jump. Jumping meant being broken through.

And if he doesn't jump, Divac can work at heights unscrupulously and play tricks on his head.

In the other four-man running tactics of the Lakers, Vujacic ran out of space with the double screen of Ye Heping and Odom, successfully cut in, received a pass from Divac and scored a layup.

"Why do I have the feeling that the Pistons are being targeted again?"

"Yes, McDyess and Arroyo not only failed to play the role of surprise soldiers, but were successfully turned into loopholes."

"This can only show that the Lakers are really well prepared before the game. They really want to win, which is the opposite of the Pistons."

"Think about it, Larry Brown is also an old-school coach. This type of coach is not flexible, and he uses the main force. The main rotation in a game is only seven or eight people, and the tactics are just the same. Last season, it was okay to use it. This season, it is still the same. The opponents have thoroughly studied. I dare say that if the Pistons continue to play like this, they will not win this season, and they will be farther and farther away from the championship in the next few seasons."

……

If Ye Heping could hear this fan's comments, he would definitely give him a thumbs-up and understand the game.

The fact is also that the Pistons lost to the Spurs in the tiebreaker of the finals this season.

In the 05-06 season, they did not make it to the finals.

In the 06-07 season, they were eliminated by the little emperor James.

Then it started to sink slowly.

All of this, Ye Heping, the reborn person, is the clearest.

In fact, in terms of strength alone, although the Pistons lack a superstar like Kobe, their overall strength is still the best in the league.

The overall strength is definitely stronger than the Lakers, and they lose because they underestimate the enemy.

There are [-] teams in the league. In fact, everyone is very familiar with each other, especially the finals opponents such as the Lakers and Pistons, who almost know everything.

Compared with last season, the Pistons' championship lineup has hardly changed, and the Lakers have studied it thoroughly.

As for the completely rebuilt Lakers, the Pistons know almost nothing and don't bother to study it.

Perhaps in their hearts, the Lakers with the OK combination are just defeated, and the Lakers without O'Neal are even more worthless.

Halfway through the third quarter, the score was already 76:51, and the Lakers led by as much as 25 points.

Larry Brown also made a couple of adjustments, but no matter what he did, the Lakers seemed prepared.

It's just a few old tactics to use it.

In addition, it is just shouting slogans.

"You guys have to learn to play the ball the right way!"

That's Brown's mantra.

"Basketball is not only a physical sport, but also requires mental support. Don't give up until the last moment!"

"As long as you go all out, the Lakers are not our opponents at all!"

"Come on, kill them!"

Chicken soup is delicious, but stewed chicken soup can also kill people, as evidenced by Daben's cramp in the first half.

In the second half, the Pistons proved their tenacity and iron-blooded tradition, relying on willpower and the Lakers to finish.

End of three quarters, 81:63.

The Pistons narrowed the score by 7 points.

This made Larry Brown very satisfied, and he was proud of his chicken soup ability.

But when the fourth quarter started, the Pistons' problems suddenly broke out.

The number of players in the rotation is small, and they play hard. Everyone's physical exertion is very serious, and they obviously can't keep up with the Lakers' running.

At the beginning of the game, Ye Heping scored a three-pointer, Cook scored a three-pointer, and Odom scored a three-pointer, directly pulling the point difference to nearly 30 points.

The Pistons no longer had the will to fight and surrendered.

The two sides replaced the main players one after another, announcing that the game had entered garbage time.

At the end, 109:88, the Lakers beat the Pistons and succeeded in revenge, and the Staples Center fell into jubilation.

Kobe encountered the tight guard of the Pistons in this game, and only had 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists in the game.

But the rest of the Lakers stepped up.

奥多姆21分7篮板3助攻2抢断，叶和平18分9篮板6助攻4抢断2盖帽，阿特金斯15分6助攻，米姆13分11篮板2助攻2盖帽，库克11分3篮板，武贾西奇6分，沃顿5分，迪瓦茨3分……

The Lakers role player slapped Larry Brown hard and slapped.

Can you win by limiting Kobe?

dream!

Even if you limit Kobe, the rest of the Lakers can stand up, and there are more people who can play than your Pistons.

Piston side:

拉希德·华莱士25分7篮板4助攻，汉密尔顿17分4篮板3助攻，比卢普斯15分3篮板7助攻……一共三人得分上双。

除此之外，大本8分13篮板2抢断4盖帽，普林斯9分6篮板3助攻2抢断，麦克代斯4分5篮板……一共也只有6人有得分入账。

For the Lakers, they won the battle of revenge.

But for fans, the Lakers have won the Suns, Spurs, Mavericks, Heat, and Pistons this season, which are five favorites to win the championship, which indirectly proves that the Lakers are a championship-level team.

"Rebuild and go for the championship, NB!"

"The Lakers fans can wake up laughing when they fall asleep. Without the Sharks, they are still a championship-level team."

"Last season's finals, the Lakers claimed to have F4, but Payton was in a terrible state. He didn't integrate into the triangle offense from the beginning to the end. Malone injured one leg, and he fought with one leg until the end. In fact, he only relied on the OK combination. The role players were even worse. Except for Fisher, there was no one decent."

"Look at this year, Kobe is the only superstar, but there are so many players who can play. Quasi-All-Star Lamar Odom, Rookie Challenge MVP Ye Heping, strong starters Atkins, Mihm, Butler, strong rotation Cook, Walton, Medvedenko, George, plus two veterans Grant and Divac, the Lakers can play so many!"

"I suddenly look forward to, if the Lakers can reach the Finals this year, they will fight against the Pistons..."

"Although I think it's quite difficult, but if this plot is really the case, it will be interesting."

……

In a metropolis like Los Angeles, the Lakers have always been the focus.

But for Ye Heping, there is even better news.
