Li Cheng’s shot hit firmly. After the game started, Li Cheng and Hamilton had already hit two goals in succession. This pitchers’ duel has already started in the opening stage of the game.
"Li Cheng and Hamilton are the best pitchers in the league now."
"If you just say CIC, the two of them are indeed the best. However, Sung Jae Lee has developed his three-point ability this summer, and Ray Allen is now heading for Miller’s three-point hit record. "
"Pure pitchers in this league are very rare now. Ray Allen was not a pure pitcher when he debuted, but a dunker. Li cheng is not a pure pitcher now, he is developing in a richer direction. Only Hamilton has been a pitcher since his debut. "
"The pitcher’s dominance is very poor. Few players in a team can lead a team to win the championship as a pitcher."
"Yes, after all, pitchers are farther away from the basket, and their scores have much to do with things that are invisible and intangible."
At this time, in the audience, piston fans gave Li Cheng a crazy boo for this shot.
In the arena of Auburn Mountain Palace, there are the most extreme fans in the league. They are crazy about their home team and crazy about the guests who come here. Because of the auburn hills Palace incident, the fans in Detroit have an endless dislike for the Pacers. The Pacers are definitely number one in Detroit’s hate list.
The booing at the scene also has some influence on Li Cheng. During the Olympic Games, where did Li Cheng hear boos? So suddenly heard such a fierce boo, Li Cheng is still a little unaccustomed.
Li Cheng was a little distracted, and Hamilton also hit the second goal while Li Cheng was distracted. On the offensive end, Sung Jae Lee made another mistake because he was distracted.
The Pistons hit back, and Rasheed Wallace went straight to the basket from the middle, and then received Billups’ pass to complete the dunk.
Under the mobilization of Billups, the Pistons played very orderly in both position attack and fast break.
The pistons haven’t traded yet. But now they are still the top teams in this league. Having been able to reach the Eastern Conference finals for so many years, the stability of this team goes without saying.
As the cornerstone of this team, Billups completely connected the pistons in series. In the face of such a team, the problems of the Pacers have finally been exposed.
Jack’s overall running-in with the team is not enough. The pacers made mistakes in coordination continuously, and the pistons fought back continuously.
In the 6th minute of the first quarter, the Pacers fell behind the Pistons 14-21.
Among the Pacers’ 14 points, Li Cheng made 3 of 5 shots and scored 6 points, while Granger also scored 5 points.
The Indian city binary stars added up to 11 points. Obviously, the pacers’ ball can’t reach others at all.
O ‘Brien called a time-out, and then he started to change people.
Mike Roberts is very soft in front of Rashid Wallace, and he seems to be beaten by the roaring Buddha and dare not enter the inside. Foster, on the other hand, is influenced by his own abilities. It is also impossible to provide a fulcrum for pedestrians on the inside.
O ‘Brien frowned and finally made the decision to replace Foster and Mike Roberts. "hibbert and Ibaka, you two must be tough enough after going up. Don’t be afraid of breaking the rules, no one will blame you. We need to be tougher, we can’t let them play so smoothly, we have to break their rhythm. "
Ibaka and hibbert tore off their training clothes, and they were ready to play.
Now, among these new pacers, Ibaka and hibbert are the two people with the best mentality. They are both players with a little nerve. Even if they are blown up after playing, they will not leave a shadow in their hearts.
For the Pacers’ perimeter, O ‘Brien also made arrangements.
"Li Cheng, you should stop shooting with Hamilton. You should be aggressive enough."
Li cheng left the pie mouth and nodded his head. Li Cheng is by no means an impulsive person. He knows very well that it’s game time. What he needs is victory, not to compete with Hamilton.
If Li Cheng has been running without the ball, Hamilton can defend him completely, which frees up Prince as a strong defensive point. So he must contain Prince, let the Pistons change their defenses, and let Granger have a better offensive space.
"Pick and roll more, pass more, let’s be steady and don’t make mistakes again." O’ Brien finally said.
The Pacers’ players nodded to show that they knew.
Soon the game continued, and after the pause, the inside combination of Ibaka and hibbert really began to exert their power.
Although these two men are only rookies, their toughness is much better than that of Mike Roberts and Foster. Just now, the Pacers’ soft inside combination made Rasheed Wallace and Kwame Brown too comfortable.
"The Pacers have put on two rookies, but it seems that the effect is not bad."
"For now, the Pacers’ inside combination can stand in the inside. Just now, the incident of being robbed of offensive rebounds by the other side should not happen again. "
"Keep reading! Li Cheng should also change his style of play. If he only attacks with the mode of running without the ball, the pacers will waste a very strong attack point! "
"Li Cheng should be a very comprehensive player. His breakthrough and back-to-back singles are very powerful offensive weapons."
"I can understand the idea that Li Cheng wants to compete with Hamilton in running without the ball, but now is obviously not the time."
"Now Hamilton has always been regarded as the spokesman of Reggie Miller. His running without the ball is very similar to Miller’s, and Li Cheng has now begun to change to a comprehensive shooting guard."
"Li Cheng should want to prove that he is better than Hamilton in running without the ball, but such a comparison is a bit meaningless."
"Yes, as long as Li Cheng leads the Pacers to do what Miller didn’t do, it is the best proof and the best reward for Miller."
This attack, Sung Jae Lee directly pulled a three-pointer outside the three-point line.
When the team falls behind and needs to chase points, Li Cheng often makes a strong three-pointer outside the three-pointer line. This has always been the favorite thing for the star players of each team to do, because such a three-pointer will be very popular, and making such a shot by their star players will also make other players feel that "the sky is falling and there is a high resistance", which will make them more daring to shoot.
Li Cheng went straight into the basket, and Li Cheng made a "shooting" action against the basket of the piston, which also represented that Li Cheng was going to vent all his firepower.
Then Hamilton got a shot in the low post, and Ibaka fanned the ball with a big hat.
Granger and Prince fought for the ball, and finally the referee whistled and they fought for the ball.
Granger knew that he didn’t have the physical advantage of Prince, so he wisely chose to take off with the ball.
The referee threw the ball, Granger took off, and then he dialed the ball in the direction of the piston’s basket.
The two teams fought together again in an instant, and Sung Jae Lee threw the racket to the other half in the chaos. Then he suddenly chased the ball at full speed. Li Cheng was no match for Hamilton in the speed competition, but he started before Hamilton, so he also touched basketball first.
After getting the ball, Li Cheng sent it forward to make Hamilton run two steps forward, but then he pulled it back. Just to the left of the free throw line, this is Li Cheng’s favorite shooting position, and Li Cheng takes it lightly.
Li Cheng didn’t even look at the flying ball, so he turned around and prepared to go back to defense. With such a shot, he can hit 100 shots for 100 shots, and there is no possibility of missing shots at all.
Strong self-confidence didn’t get the result of hitting the face. The Pacers scored 4 points by Li Chenglian, 18 to 21, and they have gradually recovered the score. (To be continued. . )
Chapter DiErLiuBa Youth is capital
Li Cheng scored two in a row, and the pistons immediately changed on the defensive end. Hamilton stopped defending Li Cheng, and the defender of Li Cheng became Prince.
Hamilton has always been the biggest loophole in the defensive end of the piston. Just now, he was asked to defend Li Cheng because Li Cheng never started the storm mode and always used the ball-free running. Hamilton is also a master of running without the ball, so there should be no problem in his defense. But now it’s different. Li Cheng obviously gave up running without the ball, so Hamilton couldn’t prevent Li Cheng.
Billups is really getting more and more demon as he gets older. His strength and experience make him completely limit Jack on the defensive end. Is it inappropriate for the Pacers to fight positional warfare with the Pistons? O ‘Brien was thinking about this problem, but then he gave up thinking about it.
If the walkers speed up their attack, they may die even worse. After all, if they want to counterattack quickly and quickly, they need a very strong protection ability for rebounds inside. However, the Pacers’ insider’s ability to protect rebounds is very poor.
Kwame Brown is a parallel import, but that just means that he didn’t play the expected value, not that this boy has no sense of existence under the basket.
He has no confidence on the offensive end, but as long as he stands on the inside, it is an unpleasant meat shield. His running on the defensive end and the protection of rebounds in the backcourt are the biggest reasons why he can still survive in the nba so far.
Rashid Wallace’s ability to protect rebounds is very poor, and his peak season is only 8 rebounds. However, Kwame Brown can make up for this, and Brown’s protection of rebounds inside is still in place.
And sometimes Prince makes a guest appearance at No.4, Wallace plays the center, and Prince’s ability to rush and rebound is also very strong. However, in today’s situation, the pistons should not come up with their small lineup.
Because a small lineup means that their offensive rhythm should be accelerated, and the Pistons should speed up the offensive rhythm, which is exactly what the Pacers want.
At this time, the pistons began to rotate, even though it was time for pedestrians to chase points. Pistons shouldn’t rotate, but their players are old, so what should they do next?
The Pacers replaced Jack with Ford, and they decided to speed up the attack after Wallace and Billups left the court.
