The Point Guard is Here
Four hundred and four: it's over
The Detroit Pistons played tougher than expected. The Wallace brothers easily protected the rebound with a tenacious and bloody attitude and passed it to Billups.
The flounder passed halftime at a slow pace, and the entire Pistons gave the fans an intuitive feeling like a huge bulldozer, slow but arriving
The Knicks' smart tactics met their opponents.
The most unconstrained team in the league met the most academic and stubborn team in the league.
Billups was not interfered by Vanhey's defense, he protected the basketball steadily, when Vanhey pressed further, he turned slightly sideways, used the help defense brought up by Rasheed Wallace to dodge, and then passed the ball to Prince.
Prince feinted a shot and passed it to Hamilton. Hamilton feinted again, forming a dislocation and passing it to Rasheed Wallace at the top of the arc.
Rasheed hits his classic straight-arm shot... Swoosh!
It took the Pistons 21 seconds to get the ball to the rim, and they played it meticulously.
Wallace roared passionately after scoring a goal. His nickname in China is Roar Tianzun, which sounds extremely deterrent.
His name is often included in the discussion list of the four major forwards, but in fact he has not entered any list. It is well known that the four major forwards will always have five or even six people.
Anthony Mason was very brave when he was young, and he was a true organizational power forward. He started as a blue-collar worker, and later he was the boss of the Hornets. .
Overall, Anthony Mason is undeniably an elite power forward.
But he is old after all.
People don't use their muscles and bones as energy when they get old. Although his strength is still majestic, it has increased compared to before, but the speed of movement is greatly reduced. It used to be a nimble strength, but now it is a stupid strength.
Rasheed Wallace's style of play is both tough and crafty, beyond his limits.
In general, among the five starting players of the Pistons, except for Ben Wallace's upright style of play, the other players are all tough and cunning.
Vanhee was still connecting his teammates in the second round, he broke through Billups' defense,
Drive into the penalty area in a pinch, and then pass to the bottom corner of the three-point line calmly.
Reggie Miller catches and shoots... BOOM!
Hit the iron.
Fan Xie desperately tried to grab the rebound, but was directly knocked away by Ben Wallace.
In today's league, there are not many players who can knock Fan Xi away, and unfortunately Wallace is one of them.
Fan Xi's strength comes from Wallace, and the efficiency of strength is consistent with his talent level, but Ben Wallace's muscle mass and body tonnage are too much higher after all.
The Knicks started with two offensive misfires.
And completely fell into the defensive swamp of the Pistons.
This made the atmosphere at Madison Gardens more dull since the start of the game.
The Knicks have suffered a blow for the first time since the playoffs. They played too well before.
Charles Barkley was blunt on TV.
It is not difficult to see from the televised footage that none of the Knicks players had the same ease and smiles as in the past.
boom!
The Knicks finally completed a beautiful defense, Billups and Hamilton made a beautiful cross screen, and then Billups passed the ball to Hamilton, Hamilton's shot was directly interfered by Van Heede.
strike iron.
In terms of individual quality, the Knicks' perimeter group is better than the Pistons.
Ratliff protected the rebound and passed it to Vanhey.
Fanhee quickly counterattacked.
He rushed into the front court and scored 2+1 under the defense of Prince. Prince tried to pull down Van Hee who was laying up, but he was thin and could not stop Fan Hee's impact. Van Hee's powerful explosive power and The strength allowed him to break away from the foul and hit a layup.
Walking to the free throw line, Fan Xi made another free throw.
Nix breathed a sigh of relief.
The game continues.
The Pistons were not in a hurry at all. They played neatly and moved in strict accordance with tactics.
After experiencing the confusion at the beginning, the Knicks gradually regained their sobriety, and their individual defensive strength was reflected. Van Hee and Madman swept the defenders from the periphery.
Effectively limit the offensive fluency of the Pistons.
Back on the offensive end, the Knicks have gradually found some accuracy.
The two sides fell into a stalemate.
The game goes on like this.
The first quarter is over.
22:25.
The Detroit Pistons led by 3 points.
Halftime is over.
45:46.
The Pistons led by 1 point.
This was a game without passion. In the entire first half, the only highlight shot that could be played during the intermission was Van Hee's 2+1 layup.
If it was usual, the Knicks players would have already been flying the clouds and fog, and all kinds of wonderful things were happening.
Tonight's game has been in the rhythm of the Pistons. The Pistons forced the New York Knicks into their vicious circle. The Knicks' feet are like being tied to sandbags. They can't do what they used to. Just like Michael back then Jordan, Jordan was also tied up by the Bad Boys. It wasn't until Pippen grew up, until the Bad Boys fell apart and grew old, that they came out of the East.
Kenny Smith draws an analogy at halftime.
He said: We can infer from tonight's game. It is known that the five tigers of the Pistons are far inferior to the Bad Boys back then, and the teammates around Jack Fan are worse than the Bulls back then. So...Jack Fan is not as good as the Bulls. Too many Michael Jordans.
Kenny Smith's derivation sounds very reasonable.
Even a player like Charles Barkley who advocated for Fanhee couldn't find a place to refute for a while.
It seems... that is indeed the case.
The fans in front of the TV are also thinking, is it too frivolous to claim that Jack Fan will rule the league before? Jack Fan should still be far from the true dominance level.
People are moved.
Fan Xi returned to the locker room, he also had a headache.
The current situation is... The Pistons have always remained unchanged to respond to all changes. The Knicks have changed their tactics in various ways, personnel transfers and tactical changes are very frequent. Relying on the players' desire for a championship, they deal with the Pistons with tenacious willpower.
But willpower will always be worn away.
Everything needs to be based on strength.
Jack, I'll go charge in the second half. Grant Hill came to Fan Xie, he patted Fan Xie's knee, this elegant gentleman said very strong words: Prince can't stop me. You are here Observe for a while, and you will be able to see their flaws.
Mutombo also came over. He said that he wanted to make a final effort for the championship. He wanted to fight the Wallace Brothers... He didn't believe that the Wallace Brothers were better than O'Neal back then.
Vanhee looked at the old Mutombo.
Uncle Mu didn't guard against O'Neal back then, not to mention his physical condition is far worse than in 2003. Mutombo's official age is 1966. But in fact... even he himself doesn't know how old he is, not to mention that he is already in his 40s, after all, forty years old is almost the same.
Few basketball players can still maintain good form at the age of 40. This is a high-intensity sport.
Especially inside players, those who can play until the age of 40 are rare.
Reggie Miller is also old, but he has a strong desire to share the team's worries.
Fan Xi lowered his head, he had an inexplicable sense of guilt, he always felt that he should lead this group of lovely old men to win the championship, instead of being led by these old men to compete for the championship.
However, in the end he agreed to Grant Hill's suggestion. He planned to take a break at the beginning of the third quarter and stand on the sidelines to observe the Pistons' play at close range.
beep!
The game begins.
The second half of the game has begun.
The Knicks' point guard became Norris.
Sprewell and Grant Hill, as well as Juwan Howard and Uncle Mu appeared.
The Pistons obviously didn't expect the Knicks to replace Fan Xie, and they were still the starters in the first half.
In the playoffs, most teams will not make frequent substitutions, and the number of players in each game is basically about 8, with repeated rotations. Because every minute and every second counts, the playoffs are not the place to level new faces.
Grant Hill really kept his promise. Hill was with the Pistons when he first debuted, and he was the hope of the Pistons at that time.
Today, the vicissitudes of life are not what they used to be.
Grant Hill quickly launched an attack from the flank with the first ball. His talent has been worn out a lot, but his pace is still firm and his experience is richer than when he was young. Therefore, he passed Prince in the first step.
The Pistons' defense quickly contracted.
Hill stepped outside the reasonable collision zone and was blocked by Ben Wallace's quick help defense, and Prince also quickly flanked him.
Hill has good passing vision.
But this time, he chose to force the shot.
boom!
Swish!
This is a batting goal.
Fan Xi frowned as he watched from the sidelines, as if he had caught some inspiration.
Looking back, the Pistons still cut like machines.
The Pistons do not have a super scorer, which is doomed that they must rely on the operation of the team.
Therefore, they are not fast.
Because of Fan Xie's absence, Billups attacked from the top of the three-point arc. He reached the free throw line and used a throw to resolve the battle.
The Knicks did not arrange interceptions at the free throw line, and the Knicks' defense was mobilized by Hamilton and Prince.
The game is still going on.
Easy side to fight again, this time it was the madman Sprewell who launched the attack. The madman has a strong body and a stupid mind that is rare in the world. He hit the Wallace brothers head-on and was blocked by Ben Wallace when he shot. Brainly press it down.
The referee fouled Ben Wallace.
He walked to the free throw line and slapped himself on the head hard, as if to show off to the Wallace Brothers: Fuck, I have a bad mind.
Sprewell is indeed like that, he is never threatened by fear.
The no-fly zone constructed by the Wallace Brothers is a terrifying restricted zone for other perimeter players. But the 'stupid' Sprewell was always eager to try.
Swish!
Swish!
Two free throws were made and the game continued.
The Pistons didn't step up their offense because of Van Heede's absence, and in fact they couldn't.
After Larry Brown and Allen Iverson cooperated, he was like a man who had experienced super beauty, lost interest in chasing beauty, and just wanted to find a woman who lived a stable life.
There are pros and cons to doing so.
The good thing is that he finally has a group of players who strictly follow his ideas and carry forward his tactical thinking.
The disadvantage is that this group of players seldom have explosive scoring. They play against strong teams and weak teams, and their own scores are almost the same.
Vanhee got a gasp.
He sat on the bench the whole time, and he watched the players play the Pistons on the court.
Step up to replace Juwan Howard from Stephen Jackson, replace Uncle Mu from Ratliff, and replace Norris from Anthony Mason.
He sat there without saying a word.
So much so that Charles Barkley asked worriedly on TV: Could Jack be injured? He has no reason to watch the players wear down like this.
Kenny Smith mocked at the side: Who knows? Perhaps, he has given up the so-called ruling alliance.
Smith was a little sour.
This was something he had held back for a long time, because before that, the Knicks had been winning wildly, and he had no chance to be sour, so he could only hold back.
After finally encountering Knicks deflated, of course he has to let out a sigh of relief.
The third quarter was over quickly.
71:75.
The Pistons took a 4-point lead in this quarter.
During the timeout between quarters, Smith said that if the Knicks hadn't had home court advantage and benefited from some penalties, the Pistons should now lead by double digits.
He said he didn't think the Knicks had a chance of counterattacking. Because the Knicks have used all means, and the Pistons only need to remain unchanged to respond to all changes, which is enough to take away the victory.
Larry Brown is also a little optimistic. He feels that the Knicks have no possibility.
Although he was a little surprised that Fan Xi did not play in the third quarter, he vaguely suspected that Fan Xi might have a new trick.
But whatever.
Larry Brown was very happy. He made the decision to let Ben Wallace rest for a while, and Hamilton also stayed on the sidelines. Although Hamilton is an iron man, he should rest for a while.
At the same time, Fanhee on the Knicks side finally stood up.
He thought about it for a whole section.
He finally figured something out. He asked his teammates: Remember what the media said before the game? They said this is a battle between the strongest spear and the strongest shield.
But in this game, we played timidly. We have been adapting to the rhythm of the Pistons. We hope to seize their flaws and then kill them.
Why?
Why can't they catch our flaws?
Fan Xi asked his teammates on the bench.
This sounds like an angry rhetorical question from a primary school student.
However, the teammates were surprised.
We should take out the side of the strongest spear.
Fan Xi said. Then he advised the two head coaches: Let's run.
Of course, the two head coaches readily accepted Fanhee's suggestion and asked Fanhee's opinion on personnel scheduling.
Fan Xi said, just rush up.
As a result, the Knicks put out an unprecedented lineup: Stephen Jackson, Grant Hill, Reggie Miller, Sprewell, Van Heede.
Isiah Thomas was stunned.
Unheard of, his expression was shocked.
But Fan Xi said: Brothers, there is no other way to fight, just one word, go!
It's over.
