After Fisher arrived in the frontcourt, he saw that there were no obvious gaps in the Pistons' defense, so he handed the ball to Pierce. Usually it is best to give the ball to star players when the team does not know how to create opportunities.
After holding the ball, Pierce looked at Prince, with his left foot as a supporting foot, and his right foot kept tapping, using his eyes and movements to try to get Prince to make the first move, Prince's defensive prediction
He is very capable, and he is not like a third-year player at all. He does not try to steal easily. As time goes by, it is extremely detrimental to the attacker. What makes him most comfortable is that he does not have to worry about gaps behind him.
To avoid this phenomenon, just keep an eye on Pierce.
After Pierce swayed four times, the fifth time started the same as before, and Prince also slacked off a little. At this time, Pierce suddenly lowered his center of gravity and leaned against Prince with his body. This made Prince unable to do anything at all.
Taking advantage of his height and arm length, he was completely defeated by Pierce in the strength confrontation. Pierce finally pushed Prince, and then used the force to flash back and shoot a fadeaway jumper.
However, Prince's reaction was not bad. He stretched out his long arm to block the shot. Pierce did not expect that Prince's defensive toughness could be so good. He panicked when he took the shot. He adjusted the height of the shot and the arc of the ball became more sharp.
It was too high and was not blocked by Prince, but Pierce also realized that there would be some problems with the sight of this shot. He shouted: "Long rebound!"
At this time, Milicic was stuck in position with Ben. When he heard this, his first reaction was to give up his position in the paint. He suddenly withdrew, and Ben went directly to the basket, while Milicic was behind him.
Holding him against him and not letting him come out, staying at the basket like this is actually not good for controlling the rebound.
The ball was indeed short as Pierce said, hitting the front line directly. Milicic jumped up and knocked away Billups who was grabbing a long rebound from him. He saw Fisher who was open outside in the air and didn't wait.
After landing, he threw the ball to Fisher. Fisher made a slight adjustment after catching the ball and threw the ball without anyone guarding him.
This shot did not disappoint, Fisher's three-pointer went hollow into the basket.
After Fisher scored the goal, he saw Billups coming in front of him and said: "This goal is given back to you. You will always pay the price for despising others."
Billups didn't care, and smiled and said to Fisher: "Give it back to me? If you want to give it back to me for the three-pointer in last year's finals, I'm afraid no one else on your team will have to take a shot in this game.
"
Fisher also smiled and said: "Are you counting on this or that series for your whole life? Who hasn't played a few good games?"
"But I am the MVP of the Finals, and you will never get it in your lifetime. You are just a role player!" Billups continued to scold Fisher.
The Pistons switched to serve a baseline ball. When Prince served, he found that Fisher had been following Billups before he got the ball. This is still rare at the beginning of the game. After all, it was so time-consuming to start the game.
Physical strength is not worth it, but Fisher has long known what to do under Rivers's instructions. The Pistons' defensive gates are Ben and Prince. The offensive points inside and outside are Rashid and Hamilton.
, Billups’ organizational ability and scoring ability are both excellent. The most important thing is that if Billups is not present, the other four people will not be afraid at all. Rashid’s personal leadership ability is not very good.
, the Trail Blazers, who had a hard battle with the Lakers before, actually had Pippen as their spiritual leader, but Pippen was unlucky. In the final battle of life and death, they encountered Kobe's explosion. In fact, if they could overcome the Lakers' hurdle,
, 80% of the championship belongs to them, and Pippen's historical status will rise crazily. It is a pity that in the end he only became the most successful second child. Hamilton actually proved that he could not play very well as a core player.
His performance with the Wizards proves this. He does not have the absolute ability to lead a team personally, and often relies on his teammates' pick-and-rolls and ball feeding.
Therefore, Rivers determined that Billups was irreplaceable. Therefore, he tried his best to use up his energy to prevent him from breaking out in the fourth quarter. The Celtics had three point guards, Derek Fisher.
Marcus Banks and Delonte West, none of these three can be regarded as stars, but they are all at or above the league average, and they all have the ability to average 10 points and 4 assists per game, and
Banks and West are also in good physical condition, and they were able to continue to maintain their intensity after Fisher fought hard. Opposite Billups' substitute was Lindsay Hunter, who is much older than him. Hunter is
A good role player, but he is too old to be able to withstand such intensity.
Fisher spared no effort to interfere with Billups when he was dribbling in the backcourt. This allowed Billups to take 6 seconds to dribble the ball to the frontcourt. The Pistons' offense relied on defense.
The main methods are counterattacks, fixed-point shooting, Hamilton's opportunities and Rashid's singles in the offense.
Therefore, not allowing the Pistons to counterattack can, to a certain extent, curb 20% of the Pistons' counterattack fast break scores.
The pressure was handed over to the Pistons. Billups dribbled the ball slowly. When Hamilton ran past him, Billups made a passing motion. Hamilton took two steps and everyone realized that Billups
Puss didn't really pass the ball. Just when others were stunned, Billups took a step forward, then used his big butt to squeeze Fisher behind him and rushed inside. Al Jefferson passed by
In the defense, Billups passed the ball to Rasheed Wallace with a small movement. Wallace did not rush in after taking the ball, but made a straight-arm half-basket and threw the ball in.
.
After the goal, Rasheed high-fived Billups and said, "Chauncy, I think we need to let these young boys know what a championship is!"
The Celtics' two offensive tactics had elements of coordination and luck, which looked lively, but the Pistons were able to respond with a ball in an understatement, which the Celtics were not willing to see.
Arrived.
Larry Brown looked at Rivers and thought: "Do you want to use up Billups's physical strength? You know, there are no big names in this grassroots army who don't train. I can't guarantee anything else, but their toughness and physical strength are certain."
It’s the best in the league.” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please read it.)
