While Billups was still warming up, he kept staring at Kidd. His concentration made Li Ang very pleased.
This season, Li Ang can be said to have grown together with the Pistons.
Big Ben went from a person who averaged 7 points per game to only 6 points per game this season...and became the best defensive player this season.
Hamilton went from a 20-point scorer last season to 19 this season...to a better track player.
Prince also went from a stocky college boy to a scrawny...
Uh... I don't blame me for being skinny.
The more Li Ang thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Oh, everyone must have made progress anyway, and now it's time for Billups to take the step of evolution!
Li Ang believed that the series against Kidd was the beginning of Billups' transformation!
Because it was the first game of the Eastern Conference finals, the Pistons had a lively starter introduction ceremony today.
Seeing the Pistons players wearing gold belts one by one, the Nets players couldn't help swallowing.
This is so... has the team bought enough insurance for us?
The two sides took their positions in the starting lineup, and the cheers on the scene went straight to the sky.
Since the victory over the Bulls, Detroit fans have firmly believed that the team can reach the finals.
Don't misunderstand Kidd, Pistons fans are not targeting him.
What Pistons fans mean is that the entire Nets team is garbage.
Before the game started, a close-up shot was given to Carolina.
Today, she wears a lot of lipstick, and her tight red dress outlines her perfect figure.
She stared closely at Li Ang, and when she realized that Li Ang was also looking at her, she generously blew a kiss.
The on-site commentary couldn't help feeling: "It feels like Carolina has grown up overnight, from a little girl to a charming woman."
Isn't that grown up? Sometimes becoming an adult is just a matter of one night.
The camera cuts back to the field and the referee throws the ball up.
The battle for the Eastern Conference Championship has officially begun!
Big Ben won the first attack from Jason Collins. Billups made a few gestures after taking the ball, looking confident.
Li Ang also set up a cover for Billups, come on Chauncey, let's bloom on the stage of the playoffs!
"Bang!"
Billups knocked out of the frame with a mid-range shot after the screen, and almost broke Li Ang's waist.
"Ah...it's okay, it's okay, it's normal to miss the first shot in the game."
Li Ang comforted himself in this way.
Kidd grabs the rebound and sprints for a counterattack.
The offense of the Nets relies on grasping and counterattacking. Although people say that Kidd's position organization is so sloppy, no matter how sloppy the organization is, it can't change the fact that the Nets' offense is at the middle and lower levels of the league.
With the experience of playing the Kings before, the Pistons players can be said to have a lot of experience in dealing with the Nets now.
When playing against the Kings, everyone can pass the ball when they stand up, and they all pass the ball very flamboyantly.
Isn't Weber uncomfortable with the alias and no backstory?
But the Nets just Kidd can pass it.
It's not difficult to prevent it at all, you just need to press hard all the way so that Kidd has no one to pass.
Kidby gestured to direct the traffic, and then relied on his strong body to squeeze Billups away and walk in, hoping to break through the Pistons' defensive formation and wait for an opportunity to pass the ball.
As a result, Kidd found that the Pistons did not double-team themselves at all, and still resolutely implemented a one-on-one half-court press.
The Pistons' defensive execution ability is definitely the strongest in the league. As long as you need Carlisle, the Pistons can do it.
Not to mention the pressure of the audience, even if Carlisle just said "defend the five people on the opposite side", the Pistons will be able to meet his request.
It's okay to guard the coach off the field, and it's not that Li Ang hasn't done it before.
Seeing that he couldn't find the target of the pass, Kidd made an emergency stop at the middle and long distance.
Because Billups trusted Kidd's shooting stability, he simply let Kidd go.
Coupled with the fact that there is no one to assist and defend, Kidd is so embarrassingly left in the mid-to-long distance position by himself.
Kidd looked around in a daze, what's the matter?Who cares, just play singles!
I saw Kidd rushing in with strides, and when he was about to hit Billups, someone came forward and changed direction, and then jumped up to pick the basket.
But the moment Kidd was about to make a shot, both Billups and Big Ben jumped up to interfere.
When Kidd was in a hurry, he used too much strength in his wrist.So, this pick-up directly hooked the basketball from Kidd's front to his back!
They didn't even touch the sides of the basket!
Li Ang has never seen any ball since he was in junior college?The artistic type, the sporty type, the Yujie type, the youthful type... can be regarded as reading countless balls.
But this ball really shocked the well-informed Li Ang.
Co-author Kidd, like Brother Ben, is also a skyhook player!
Sure enough, Big Ben is very experienced with this kind of ball.
Everyone else stood there dumbfounded when they saw the ball. Only Da Ben, who predicted the path of the ball in advance, took off the second time and caught the ball.
Anything about missed shots, Ben is very professional!
After Li Ang received the pass from Da Ben, he immediately went down quickly, preparing to counterattack for the Pistons to take the lead.
But the Nets' defense was not slow either. Both Kidd and Kenyon Martin were chasing Li Ang.
Kenyon Martin is good at chasing risk, and Kidd is definitely the kind of player who can cut the ball in your hand without looking back after overtaking in front of you.
Now that Kidd has come to chase him, doesn't this mean...
After rushing to the basket, Li Ang chose to pass the ball to Billups who was already ambushing in the corner.
He believes that Billups, who is extremely excited this time, will never disappoint his expectations!
As everyone knows, the moment Li Ang passed the ball, Kidd turned around and rushed towards Billups.
Kidd's defensive level is indeed at the ceiling level among point guards.
If you thought he was just defending with his body, you'd be wrong.
Kidd's judgment on defense can be described as a prophet.
Kidd arrived just in time and severely disrupted Billups.
The basketball bounced out of the hoop, and Billups missed his second consecutive shot!
"Chauncey Billups missed the second consecutive shot. Kidd's defense is really not that easy to get rid of. The Nets got the rebound. This is a chance to counterattack!"
Billups stuck to Kidd the moment he hit the iron, and the Pistons' full-court press was completed in an instant, and Kidd had no chance to lead the fast break at all.
The Nets' offense was forced to drag into the position again, and after 20 seconds of transmission, there was still no chance to pass.
In the last 4 seconds, Kidd handed the ball to Kidders, the most reliable shooter of the Nets.
After Kidders made a sudden step, he returned the ball to Kidd!
Kidd really didn't expect this wave of dumping the pot, what else can I do, I can only vote!
"Bang!"
Stern's melon seeds are buzzing, this game is indeed more exaggerated than the Pistons playing the Bulls before!
In the playoffs in the Eastern Conference, it is normal not to score for half a day.
To be honest, watching Kidd and Billups take turns to strike iron, Li Ang was also quite speechless.
Billups and Kidd, before the game started, Li Ang thought they would have a wonderful matchup today.
As a result, the two came up to strike iron like crazy.
After the first quarter of the game, Kidd and Billups still played very stable.
In the end, both of them tacitly hit a 4-for-1 hit rate.
This is nothing compared to VS Jibugong!
It's a lucky thing for you two to appear in an ordinary Eastern Conference Finals at the same time!
After the first quarter, the Pistons led the Nets by 18 points 14 to 4.
Stern smelled the smell of scoring less than 80.
Only then did Li Ang remember that in the original history, the Pistons played against the Nets twice in the playoffs, and Billups played so badly that he was beaten out of comparison.
The reason is that Kidd's defense is too strong for Billups.
Fortunately, Li Ang had such high expectations for Billups before the game. He originally wanted to hug Billups' thighs and paddle, so as to save his energy for the finals.
Well now, Li Ang must give up his fantasy and prepare to fight.
Kidd panted and glanced at Billups in the opposite half of the court. What the hell, they are all point guards who can defend, and they can't break the trick!
If he keeps playing like this, Kidd estimates that his hit rate will be ground to single digits.
So, he turned to look at Martin: "It's time for your show!"
Upon hearing this, Martin clenched his fists excitedly.
Don't worry, Brother Ji, I will definitely follow your example!
The second quarter started quickly, and the Nets had the ball.
Kidd will now be pressed by Billups as soon as he crosses the midfield line.
Although Billups faced the MVP-level Kidd 4-for-1 in the first quarter, he was not discouraged.
At worst, I won't let you in. At worst, we will die together. Who is afraid of whom?
With such a mentality, Billups is called a fierce defensive end.
Kidd carefully handles the ball and calls Martin over for a pick-and-roll.
Because Kidd didn't have a shooting threat, Li Ang didn't even think about defending, but stayed close to Martin from beginning to end.
Therefore, when Martin went down, he actually didn't get rid of the defense, and Li Ang was still by his side.
After receiving the basketball, Martin didn't care about Li Ang's defense, and habitually jumped up to attack the frame.
Because Li Ang was about half a body behind Martin, he was chasing after him.
Therefore, Li Ang triggered the chasing badge this time!
The speed of Li Ang's last step has become much faster, and the bullet speed and jump height have also been strengthened.
Li Ang waited for Martin to jump up in the air, and then slapped him hard!
"Big ball, the Pistons' defense is really tight. Kidd's guidance was beautiful enough, but Martin still couldn't score the ball, thanks to Li Ang's beautiful save!"
As soon as Sun Zhengping finished speaking, he covered his mouth.
Damn, the Pistons' game commentary has been going on for a long time, and they always tend to lean towards football unconsciously.
They all scored a goal in half a day, and it was indeed easy to jump on the field.
Kenyon Martin was a little surprised, because under normal circumstances, as long as he receives Kidd's ball down the line, he can basically abuse the frame unscrupulously.
After the block, Li Ang grabbed the basketball and handed the ball to Billups.
Billups didn't go up and was not in a hurry to score. Instead, he passed the ball tacitly to the little prince Prince who was plugging in, and assisted Prince to score an easy layup.
Kidd saw that Martin seemed a little discouraged, so he walked up and put his arms around his shoulders: "Failure is the mother of success, brother, cheer up!"
Martin nodded hard, brother, I'll try again.
This time, Kidd didn't do those fancy things, and directly lobbed the ball to Martin, who was leaning on Li Ang with his back.
Martin hit hard after receiving the ball, ready to advance to the penalty area, but was blocked by Li Ang.
Today, Martin didn't even dare to stretch his elbows when he was back-hitting, and he didn't dare to make an outside move with Li Ang at all.
It seems that being sent to the hospital last time still caused a great psychological shadow on him.
