After four games, the Lakers and Pistons were tied at 2-2.

This result is undoubtedly beyond most people's expectations.

The Lakers, who have been overwhelming in the finals in the past two years, really met their opponents this time.

It's just that people can't figure out how the Pistons without superstars can compete with the OK Lakers.

In the past four games, Kobe Bryant had a 30-point performance in a single game, and O'Neal also had a super double-double of 36-20.

But the Pistons, no one's numbers are amazing.

The best personal data of a Pistons player was only 26 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks by Leon in G3.

This data is certainly good, but compared with OK which is 30, it seems slightly inferior.

But just such a group of people who are not superstars actually dragged the game to the fifth game.

The Pistons are truly surprising.

Throughout the modern history of the NBA, it is basically impossible for a team without superstars to win the championship.

Starting from the 1980s, the championship in the 1980s was basically divided between the Bird Master and the Demon Master.

In the years when they did not win the championship, the two top 50 members, Moses Malone and Thomas the Smiling Assassin, won the championship.

Not to mention the 1990s, when Jordan, Olajuwon and Duncan won almost all championships.

Even someone as strong as a flying pig can only run with him in this version of Clash of the Gods.

Although the Trail Blazers who won the championship at the beginning of the century also did not have a superstar, their lineup was full of All-Stars.

Three cobblers can still stand up to one Zhuge Liang.

Three book reviews can get the author to copy a book.

Although the Trail Blazers don't have a super giant, they are still better than having a super giant.

Only the Pistons are really fucking civilians.

There are only two All-Stars, Li Ang and Ben. Ben is still an All-Star who can score 1 point in two consecutive games.

Relying on this mediocre lineup, they actually managed to score 2-2 with the Lakers.

Is this humiliating the Lakers? No, this is humiliating wealthy players like Paul Allen and Cuban.

You spend so much money, but it's not as good as the Pistons' lineup with a bunch of rookie contracts and mid-level contracts.

You are just stupid and have too much money.

Dumas taught these rich people a lesson: Do you need to spend money to play basketball?

Although the total score of the series became 2-2, the media and fans in Los Angeles remained optimistic.

After all, in the last game, the Lakers defeated the Pistons by 13 points.

OK, two people, win by 13 points, referred to as the 213 tragedy.

As Kenny Smith said after the last game, the Giants just took a nap.

Now that the giant has awakened, the championship will be decided within six games.

Watching the Lakers win the championship in Detroit is not unacceptable.

Many people believe that the civilian Pistons are dazzling enough in the finals, but their upper limit is this.

When the people of Los Angeles were still dreaming about reaching the top in six games and establishing a dynasty, the entire Pistons team gathered in Carlisle's room, Kang Haokang.

What else can a bunch of men watch together? Watching football, of course.

The entire Pistons team is looking back at the video of yesterday's game where they were beaten by the Lakers by 13 points, looking for the reason for the loss.

The reason is that the Lakers' role players have seized opportunities in two consecutive games.

Series G3 is generally considered to be Li Ang's battle to prove himself.

But in fact, in that game, the Lakers' role players had gotten rid of the curse of missing open shots and played very efficiently.

If it weren't for Kobe's crazy assists, it's hard to say whether the Pistons could have won G3.

It was just that the Pistons won the game in the end and covered up this problem, so Carlisle didn't pay attention to it.

As a result, Kobe stopped playing in G4, and sure enough, the piston overturned.

This is what the playoffs are like. If you have the opportunity given to you by others, you should take it. If you don't have the ability, you will lose.

The opportunity the Pistons gave the Lakers was to let go of role players. But in G3 and G4, the Lakers seized the opportunity.

Facts have proved that the strategy of blocking OK and letting others go is no longer applicable.

Once OK and role players perform well, even the Pistons' defense will not be able to withstand such powerful firepower.

Therefore, Carlisle's strategy for the next game is also very simple. While guarding OK, limit the performance of the Lakers' role players.

The moment Kobe catches the ball and prepares for a single, he double-teams him, and the moment he distributes the ball, he quickly makes up the position.

Everyone must run on the defensive end, switching between double teams and man-to-man at any time, killing every opportunity of the Lakers!

If other coaches heard Carlisle deploying defense like this, they might think this guy is crazy.

It's like a football coach telling his goalkeeper: "It's easy to score a goal. When you kick or throw the ball, just kick it directly into the goal. To score a goal, you still need so many complicated things."

process?"

Even if you look for a random person on the street, they will know this.

Everyone understands the principle, but the key point is that it is difficult to implement.

How many goalkeepers can kick the ball directly into the opponent's goal? Very few!

The Pistons' defensive strategy also means the same thing. It requires both double-teaming and marking. This is not a complicated tactic.

All basketball coaches in the world know that this is the most perfect defensive strategy.

But the key is that the players can't do it, you know.

Thank God for being able to do both double-teaming and man-marking well.

When some players defend, they just stand there and put their hands on their hips.

You have to double-team and man-to-man, switching back and forth, and you have to be good enough to defend a team like the Lakers.

This is not just about eating shit.

For other teams, this is really a waste of money.

But Carlisle believes that his team has such defensive execution ability!

The Pistons generals are also very confident. Throughout the season, they have been doing one thing, and that is defense.

Not to mention anything else, the Pistons have done it more than once this season just by limiting their opponents' points to less than 60 points.

Carlisle's strategy is actually quite perverted, which is to achieve the ultimate in defense.

Play perfect defense in a true sense.

After the tactical meeting, Li Ang returned to the room and opened the system interface.

In Kobe's copy mission, there is a big question mark.

Seeing that the season was over with at most three games left, but the task had not yet been completed, Li Ang was a little panicked.

Now, we can only work towards winning the championship.

If the mission is really to win the championship, then it will be a double happiness.

In the afternoon training, Carlisle did not increase the intensity for everyone.

Because he knows very well that the upcoming battle at Tianwang Mountain will be a huge test for your physical fitness and perseverance.

If you want to have strong man-marking and double-teaming at the same time, active running and attacking are definitely indispensable.

Therefore, the next game is a desperate battle for the Pistons.

If the Lakers cannot be contained, it will not mean losing a game, but the Lakers will be helpless in the entire series.

Because this is Carlisle's last trump card.

If he still loses in this way, he will have nothing to do.

On the other side, Kobe was also practicing shooting like crazy.

Shots from various positions.

O'Neal looked at Kobe and shook his head.

You should also practice passing when you have time, asshole!

O'Neal has seen through these games that Kobe is not dissatisfied with anyone when he doesn't pass the ball on the court.

This is simply a psychological problem.

Once he gets on top, he loves to compete with himself.
