Chapter One Hundred Los Angeles Blacksmiths
16:6 The Lakers chased the point difference to 10 points.
Pistons offense.
Wang Hao and Millsap switched defenses, and Millsap went to guard Prince.
Millsap's disadvantage of not being as fast as Prince soon became apparent.
Prince used a reverse run to get rid of Millsap and successfully slipped through the baseline.
Billups accurately delivered the cannonball to Prince.
"Stuck, Bynum." Wang Hao shouted, allowing Bynum, who was struggling to defend or get stuck, to find his direction.
Wang Hao took one step to the basket and stood in front of Prince.
Prince, who had already charged, had no intention of stopping and wanted to dunk Wang Hao on the head.
The two collided in the air, and Prince's disadvantage of being light in weight became apparent.
After just one aerial confrontation, Prince almost lost his balance. Wang Hao took advantage of the situation and hit the ball out of the sideline.
Prince was also knocked to the ground by Wang Hao.
"There is a no-fly zone above the tyrant."
"Didn't anyone tell you?".
Wang Hao said coolly.
The Pistons served the ball from the sideline with 5 seconds left in the attack time.
Under the tight defense of the Lakers, Ronald Murray, who had no chance, threw a ball without touching it, and the ball was collected by Bynum under the basket.
Wang Hao mentioned catching the ball in two steps outside the three-point line.
He spread his hands to signal his teammates to pull away.
Prince stared at Wang Hao as if facing a formidable enemy, observing every move of Wang Hao.
Wang Hao just stood there with the ball. Prince, who had suffered a lot, did not dare to get close to him and could only defend outside the three-point line.
Whoosh!
Wang Hao, who was two steps away from the three-point line, suddenly shot a cold arrow and made a three-point shot.
In Prince's disbelieving eyes, the basketball drew a beautiful arc and fell into the basket.
Wang Hao faced Prince's innocent spread of his hands and turned around to defend himself.
16:9
The Lakers narrowed the point difference to 7 points. There were 4 minutes left in the first quarter.
At this time, Billups, who had been despised, stood up.
As the most stable point of this Pistons team, Billups is taking the lead at this moment.
"Mr. Big Heart" Billups vs. "Black Mamba" Kobe.
Billups' style of play is not as fancy as others, and his movements are always unpretentious, practical and practical.
With his butt pressed against Kobe, he suddenly started to break through, then turned around, pulled back, and shot a three-pointer.
A set of movements flows smoothly and is completed in one go.
Uh-huh!!!
Scored three points.
19:9 The Pistons once again widened the point difference to 10 points.
"Shet." Kobe cursed in annoyance.
"Play what we do best.".
Wang Hao finally put away his joking and took the initiative to share the pressure for Kobe. His two strong hands were tightly held together.
When the Lakers attacked, Wang Hao took the initiative to set a pick-and-roll for Kobe.
Kobe broke through and was chased by Prince. He directly passed the ball back to Wang Hao.
Wang Hao held the ball and pretended to shoot. In fact, he passed the ball to Tucker who ran to the baseline.
Tucker made a decisive three-pointer from the corner.
Duang!!!
Tucker, who was inconsistent at three-pointers, struck gold.
Bynum pushed the ball hard to Wang Hao on the outside.
Wang Hao passed the ball to Kobe, who was leaning on Prince in the low post.
Kobe's post-up master mode is now online.
The superb back-up steps made Prince miserable. Kobe's feint left and right lifted his center of gravity, and Kobe turned around in the opposite direction and went straight to the basket.
Rasheed Wallace, who was guarding the basket, dropped Millsap and ran over to cover.
Kobe, who had already taken off, suddenly collected the ball, made a back pass, and passed the ball to Millsap.
"Not good." Rasheed Wallace, who was thinking of landing quickly and then defending, felt a strong force coming from behind before he even landed.
Duang!!!
Millsap paid the highest respect to the Roaring King.
Millsap, who landed on the ground, ignored Rasheed Wallace's fiery eyes and calmly returned to defense.
"Damn it, you damn rookies are just waiting." He muttered to himself with no one paying attention. It was as powerless as the phrase "Just wait." he said when he was in school.
19::12
As the brains of the Pistons, Billups is always able to sort out the Pistons' offense in an orderly manner, and the ball always falls into the hands of the opponent Millsap.
In his infancy, Millsap was unable to hold up Rasheed Wallace on the inside and could not catch up with Prince on the outside. This became a breakthrough point for the Pistons.
Although the Lakers' "playing snake connection" is still so smooth, they can't stand up to Kobe Tie.
Maybe Kobe added a cover to his own basket in today's game.
Although the coordination was good and the play was reasonable, Kobe just couldn't score.
The score just opened up again.
At 27:16 at the end of the first quarter, the Pistons once again pushed the point difference to more than 10 points.
Barkley: "This is the first time this season that the Lakers have scored less than 20 points in a single quarter."
Kenny Smith: "Kobe had too many opportunities that he failed to seize. Wang Hao needs to stand up in this game.".
Barkley: "Let's wait and see! I don't know how much skill the Pistons' defense has left, and whether they can guard against Wang Hao who is full of firepower.".
Barkley is not talking nonsense. According to this trend, Wang Hao will really be full of fire when he comes on stage.
The main force's success has been passed on to the Lakers' bench.
McDyess, who came off the bench for the Pistons, performed at his peak inside.
The aging McDyess beat the Lakers' backup big men to death.
At this time, the Zen master's eyes glanced back and forth between Wang Hao and Kobe.
"Boy, you will be the main attack in a moment." Before Zen Master could speak, Kobe gave up the right to take action.
Statistics don't matter, Kobe wants to win.
So what if he is said to be hugging his thigh? Kobe fed these thighs himself, and he still keeps them.
Four minutes into the second quarter, the score was 39:21. The Lakers were already 18 points behind, and they were struggling to see themselves behind by 20 points.
Zen Master, who couldn't stand it anymore, finally called a timeout, replaced the substitute, and replaced him with the starter.
"Attack with all your strength." Kobe said, patting Wang Hao's butt.
"Leave it to me.".
Kobe was dribbling the ball outside the three-point line, making people confused about how Kobe was going to play.
Wang Hao suddenly started to move inside.
The Pistons insider thought that Wang Hao would run inside to set up an off-ball pick-and-roll for the Lakers. As a result, Wang Hao accelerated directly and exited the three-point line from the other side. This caught the Pistons, who were already preparing to change defense, off guard.
As soon as Wang Hao stepped out of the three-point line, Kobe Bryant's pass came in response.
"Not good." At this moment, everyone in the Pistons had this thought in their minds.
Without any pause, Wang Hao caught the ball and took action.
The ball fell directly into the basket.
At 39:24, the Lakers were still 15 points behind.
"Defend, defend." Wang Hao shouted back to defend.
The Pistons' pass went to McDyess, who had a hot touch.
It's just that this time McDyess' defender was replaced by the young and powerful Bynum.
There is no such thing as respecting the old and loving the young on the basketball court.
Bynum held McDyess firmly.
The experienced McDyess passed the ball directly to Delfino's hands.
This Argentine guard does not have a variety of offensive methods like the Argentine player of the Spurs. Facing the Lakers' pressing defense, Delfino can only hand the ball to the point guard Lynch Hunter on the court again. This "smile"
"Assassin" is regarded as an idol. This person has all the potential of an assassin. But he is already old at this time. He entered the NBA in 1993 and has been playing in the NBA for 13 years. He is already 36 years old. Maybe he can still generate residual heat.
, but it is no longer the person who can dominate the game.
The Pistons' camp was full of injuries, so the "invisible assassin" once again picked up his knife.
Facing Kobe's defense, Lynch Hunter scored a pull-up mid-range shot at a speed that was not at his age.
Chapter completed!
