Chapter 110, the impact of physical strength on the Pistons
With more than three minutes left in the third quarter, Detroit Pistons head coach Larry Brown finally couldn't sit still. Only young Prince was left on the court, and several others were replaced.
The Detroit Pistons' lineup on the field changed to point guard Lindsay Hunter, shooting guard Davin Ham, small forward Ronald Dupree, and power forward Antonio McDyess.
The Celtics traded for Kendrick Perkins.
The Celtics have completely rotated out all five players. The players on the bench for the Celtics just now are actually not bad. If they are put into a team, I believe they will have a chance to win.
playoff spot.
The Boston Celtics sent point guard Gary Payton, shooting guard Eddie Jones, small forward Darrell Wright, power forward Al Jefferson, and center Krstic.
The substitutes of both teams fought back some points, and finally after three quarters, both teams exceeded 65 points. The Detroit Pistons entered the final quarter with a 1-point lead, 66-65.
People's fear often comes from the unknown. When watching the game video analysis, everyone was extremely impressed by the strength of the Pistons. However, during the actual game, they found that in addition to playing harder, the Pistons and other NBA teams
There is no difference, especially when these young players see that they can compete with the defending champion to this level, they are very excited.
Although Delonte West didn't play much time in this game, he still said next to Milicic during the break: "We played so wonderfully in this game, I really should be in this game."
I will retire after the game. If we win this game, I will have the crying faces of the Pistons guys tattooed on my butt. My butt will definitely become the favorite of those chicks."
Pierce smiled and said in a hoarse voice: "I guess even if you embroidered a Disneyland on it, no one would be interested in you. Even those gays have their own tastes..."
Rivers didn't say too much during the session. He knew that it was not easy for the Celtics boys to hold on until now. Whether this game is a win or a loss is not important to Rivers.
It's not particularly important. What's important is that he has seen everyone's growth. From the rebuilt children's team at the beginning of the season to now becoming a team with chemical reactions, the transformation is gratifying.
Rivers said to everyone: "If you are tired, you can continue to sit down off the court, but if you play, my request to you is to move! Move! Move! Keep moving! Are you tired?"
"Not tired!" everyone said in unison.
"Louder, stop acting like a pussy, I'm not coaching a women's hockey team!"
"You're not tired!" everyone shouted loudly, and after the shouting, West didn't forget to add, "Give us 100 girls now, and we can get rid of them!"
Rivers also laughed. No one could do anything about West's wretched spirit. Rivers smiled and said: "Children! What you have to defeat in front of you is just 5 men. As for me in the future,
I believe each of you will break 100. As an NBA player, you have to believe me. After you achieve your results, you will not be satisfied with this number."
Milicic looked at Rivers with a dark look on his face. It seemed that when the doctor was young, he might not be as sanctimonious in suits and ties as he looks now.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Pistons fielded a full bench lineup. Even Prince was replaced. The Pistons' lineup consisted of point guard Lindsay Hunter, shooting guard Devin Ham, Jr.
Forward Dupree, power forward McDyess and center McDyess.
The Pistons have to consider not just physical issues, they also have foul issues. Ben Wallace has fouled four times, three of which were committed by Milicic. Rasheed Wallace fouled three times.
Prince committed five fouls, and only Hamilton and Billups had fewer fouls.
On the Celtics side, Milicic and Pierce did not commit many fouls. Fouls are usually handled by Chris Anderson. Twice, Milicic and Anderson blocked shots together, and the referee whistled.
After the call, Anderson always raises his hand immediately to indicate that he has indeed committed a foul. This is to protect the team's ace player. However, it is precisely because of Milicic's strong aggressiveness that a player with no offensive ability like Anderson has the ability to do so.
With more opportunities to stay on the court, Anderson will naturally have to protect Milicic more. Anderson, who has been to so many teams, is not as stupid as others think. Although his character is a bit perverse, it does not mean that he is
He is a complete fool.
The Celtics have deployed their strongest offensive lineup. While the Pistons' main force is resting, they must try their best to score points. The Celtics' point guard is Gary Payton, a shooting guard.
Eddie Jones, small forward Paul Pierce, power forward Darko Milicic, center Kostic.
After the opening, Payton dribbled the ball into the frontcourt and immediately handed the ball to Pierce. Pierce felt that Dupree on the opposite side had no defensive ability. He was as good as ordinary players in terms of height, wingspan, flexibility and defensive awareness.
Lin Si is not even the slightest bit different.
Pierce shook the ball twice and then broke into the paint against Dupree. Before McDyess came out to defend, he scored the ball with a mid-range shot. After scoring, Pierce did not forget to say to Dupree in his hoarse voice:
"You have to thank me for not eating too much, otherwise you'll be smelling me from behind my ass the rest of the time."
The Celtics played well on the offensive end, and the Celtics also did well on the defensive end. When the Pistons handed the ball to Perkins for transfer, Milicic dropped McDyess, who he was marking, and beat Perkins.
With the ball in his hand, he successfully stole the ball. While stealing, Milicic immediately threw the ball to Eddie Jones who was about to leave. Jones ended the game with a dunk when Lindsay Hunter was following him.
This attack.
Just now in the third quarter, the Pistons worked hard to score a few points, but at the beginning of the fourth quarter, they were beaten 4-0 by the Celtics. This was somewhat unacceptable. Larry Brown roared on the sidelines.
Asked: "Are you beasts? Can't your hands even hold a basketball?"
Milicic looked at Larry Brown's roar and said lightly to him on the sidelines: "Maybe you should replace the players who are sitting on the bench. The longer the players sit on your bench, the stronger they seem.
