Point guard Marcus Banks, shooting guard Eddie Jones, small forward Paul Pierce, power forward Al Jefferson, center Darko Milicic
The Detroit Pistons lineup is:
Point guard Chauncey Billups, shooting guard Richard Hamilton, small forward Prince, power forward Rasheed Wallace, center Ben Wallace.
After the opening, this time it was Rasheed Wallace and Milicic fighting for the ball. Although Rasheed Wallace's height and wingspan are not much inferior to Milicic, and he is also an inside player with excellent jumping.
, but it is undeniable that he now feels that his physical function has declined somewhat. The proportion of his outside shots is gradually increasing. His physical strength is not particularly good, and he has even reduced his attacks on the inside. This time the jump ball is
Showing a decrease in his spring speed and bounce, Milicic moved the ball to his own side.
Marcus Banks got the ball. After the ball was dribbled to the frontcourt, Milicic still pulled it to the free throw line as before. Banks handed the ball to Milicic and started to cut and run.
Using this method to consume Billups' energy, Milicic received the ball and Ben Wallace came out to defend, but when Milicic saw Ben Wallace following out, he suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball.
, Eddie Jones cut in, shook off Hamilton's defense, and hit a layup before Rasheed Wallace could block the shot.
Milicic looked at Ben Wallace with a smile and said: "How about it, you have no chance to give me hot pot? It seems that you are likely to lose ten thousand dollars to me today. Remember to keep your word."
Ben Wallace didn't expect Milicic to play this trick. He was really not used to it on the court. He was good at defending other people's offenses. He was very good at following the steps and assisting in blocking shots.
He is good at it. But guarding the passes of big men is a test that he has never experienced before. He has never seen any big men make a living by passing the ball.
Off the court, Larry Brown's pupils dilated after Milicic sent two consecutive assists and two successful passes. He pushed up his glasses, shook his head and said: "Is this guy planning to use him as a
Playmaking center?" When he said this, Larry Brown looked at Rivers on the other side, and you could see the relief on Rivers' face. Obviously, he knew that his strange move today had had an effect.
Lee Brown couldn't find a way to crack this trick in a short time.
Several players in this game have deep meanings. Banks has a strong defense and can defend Billups very well, and he will not be bullied by Billups in terms of physical strength. Although
On the offensive end, Banks' shooting is not accurate. But he has a strong impact like a small steel cannon and can constantly cut and pull to create opportunities. Especially after Milicic was pulled out, the Pistons' inside line was relatively empty.
De Wallace himself could not completely fill this gap.
And the most important thing is that Al Jefferson's fixed-point half-volley shot is still good. If Rasheed Wallace goes in, Al Jefferson can hit the mid-range shot, and Prince has no chance.
, Pierce also did not serve as the main offensive point in this game. He was also organizing the offense and pulling the Pistons' defense. The Pistons' defense continued to expand. He also assisted once just now.
Eddie Jones, an old guy, used his various superb offensive skills to challenge Hamilton. Although Hamilton's mid-range shooting is unique in the world, he is really not particularly good in other aspects. Especially in terms of defense, the third
First, his physical strength is average, and second, his defensive attitude is not very active. Larry Brown has always criticized him for this. So when facing the former All-Star Eddie Jones, Hamilton was actually beaten consecutively.
Eddie Jones scored several.
What is unexpected is that the Boston Celtics played a smooth offensive game when visiting the Palace of Auburn Hills, and at the end of the first quarter, the Boston Celtics led the Detroit Pistons 23-17.
6 points, which made Larry Brown scratch his head. At this time, the home fans were also booing, and some people were shouting to return Darko to us. Larry Brown began to feel that the Pistons were really a poor place.
city, after helping them win a championship, they still have to say this and that. These unqualified blue-collar workers are really intolerable.
In the second half of the game, the Boston Celtics replaced Milicic with Kostic. Although Kostic's assist ability is not as good as Milicic, he also has certain support capabilities as a European center. Tony Allen's reaction
Running and three-pointers from Derek Fisher and Darrell Wright also posed a great threat to the Pistons.
In the second quarter of the game, Larry Brown changed his tactics and replaced Ben Wallace with McDyess. If Ben Wallace did not have to restrain Milicic on the defensive end, then his appearance
It is completely meaningless, and there is one less firepower point on the offensive end.
At this time, Larry Brown felt a little regretful. Last year's Pistons still had a lot of outstanding players in the interior, such as Okur, who has now switched to the Jazz. If Okur is here, he can also be pulled out on the offensive end to provide impact.
Opportunities were created inside, but now Okur and Milicic are not here, and McDyess obviously did not meet Larry Brown's expectations. As a member of the former Dream Team, Larry Brown did not expect that McDyess would become injured due to injuries.
The competitive status has dropped so drastically.
Larry Brown hoped that after McDyess came on the court, Milicic would feel that McDyess was easier to attack, so he would get inside and fight with the Pistons inside. But what he didn't expect was that Milicic would still pull him in.
The position at the free throw line didn't mean to go inside at all. It just looked like I'm going to kill you with this move. Rivers obviously had the same plan over there.
The only change for the Celtics is that the point guard who plays with the lineup is not Marcus Banks, but replaced by Derek Fisher. This is also the first time that Fisher has played with the starter in the rotation.
Send lineup partners.
Fisher also has grudges against Billups. After all, the two of them played against each other last year and even gave Billups a Finals MVP.
Here Milicic threw the ball to Fisher who ran out of the open space. After catching the ball, Fisher opened his hand and made a three-pointer. The ball hit directly. From this moment on, the Celtics will officially announce the start of their counterattack against the Pistons.
.
And Milicic did not take a shot for more than one quarter. He had no points and only had 3 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block. Even the commentators on the scene said that Milicic was thinking about getting the weirdest one.
