166: Waygo is really durable (Part 1(2/2)
Big books have become meow books.
Masked man Hamilton appeared on the bench in a suit and tie, feeling miserable.
Come on, brothers, let's win a round at least, otherwise it will be too shameful.
Moreover, the Pistons really have to win a game.
Right now, the Pistons and Pacers are eight or nine games apart, making it almost impossible to overtake.
The Celtics, who are behind the Pistons, are eight or nine games behind the Pistons...
The piston cannot go up even if it rises, and it cannot fall down even if it falls.
In other words, they have a high probability of entering the playoffs as third in the Eastern Conference this season.
If this is the case...then the Pistons and Pacers will most likely meet in the Eastern Conference semifinals!
The Pistons have not defeated the Pacers so far this season. Therefore, this is Larry Brown's last chance to try before the playoffs begin.
He must find a way to defeat the Pacers in this game, otherwise, the defending champion will be in great danger in the playoffs.
Amid the excited shouts of the fans, both teams took their starting positions.
For the Pacers, Warriors Jackson replaced Artest at the third position.
As for the Pistons, four of the top five are still on the field, but Hamilton was replaced by Lindsay Hunter.
A player who was praised by Dumars: "If the league were to select a five-man lineup that poses the greatest threat to players holding the ball, Hunter would undoubtedly be the first choice for point guard."
Well, he averaged 3.8 points per game and shot only 35.8% from the field.
The most important thing is that Hunter is less than 1.9 meters tall. The back line formed by him and Billups has to be said to be a bit too short.
Billups and Hunter are indeed outstanding defensive players at the No. 1 position.
But defending the second position may be a bit stretched.
After the game started, the Pacers looked for Miller.
Since we are enemies meeting each other, we will of course step on them and hit them as much as it hurts.
If your back line is short, I will hit your back line!
Wayne provided a screen for Miller and Billups was deflected.
At this time, Prince changed defense and prepared to use his long arms to interfere with Miller's shooting.
However, Miller calmly moved the ball again and found Wu Sheng who was left open.
Billups rushed towards Wu Sheng, but to no avail.
With his height, the defensive range is a bit too small to defend the third position.
Jackson killed him with one shot and then hit a three-pointer.
"Easy money, the defense of the defending champion is nothing more than this!"
At this time, Wayne's voice appeared!
Everyone on the Pistons turned to look at him, as if they wanted to eat Wayne alive.
You can insult Detroit's offense, but you can't insult Detroit's defense!
Wayne looked at the angry expressions of the Pistons players and was very proud.
Come on, come on, be angry, let's fight hand to hand. Let me be healthy. It is your gold that lasts, or mine that lasts.
It’s time to check the effect of the badge.
On the Pistons' first attack, Billups found Tianzun.
As soon as Tianzun caught the ball, he was stuck by Wayne.
This was not intended to make Tianzun feel better from the very beginning.
At this time, if there is a Hamilton, Tianzun will be able to provide him with immediate support.
But...Lindsay Hunter is basically useless on the offensive end!
This is not a problem that his scoring ability is slightly weaker than Hamilton's, but a problem that he is basically unable to score!
It is no exaggeration to say that the Pistons are basically 4 on 5 on the offensive end.
No, no, no, 3 versus 5, it seems like Benduo can attack.
There was no other way, so Rashid had no choice but to fight on his own.
He pushed back and immediately turned over to prepare for a jump shot.
As a result, before the ball was lifted, it was cut off by Wayne's palm.
"Is it interesting to keep using the same trick?"
After Wayne cut off the basketball, he immediately dribbled forward himself. Prince, the little prince, chased after Wayne wildly, but...
Wayne is not Miller. When Wayne jumped up for a layup, the little prince couldn't touch the ball at all.
Don't tell me you have a long wingspan, it's of no use to Wayne!
Just like that, Wayne made a one-stop layup after a steal, and the Pacers started 5-0.
The sound in the Palace of Auburn Hills Stadium was much quieter. This was a punch from the beginning.
After scoring the goal, Wayne spread his arms towards Tianzun: "Kang Mang, don't you want me to see the strength of a championship?"
"Too cheap!"
Tianzun's fists were clenched. If he hadn't remembered the scene of Bowen struggling on the ground, he would have had a season finale boxing match with Wayne!
But soon, Tianzun calmed down.
Wait until the second half, when that guy is exhausted, that’s when I counterattack!
Chapter completed!
