40-40, DJ Augustine was really a little anxious at this time. When Li Feng was on the court, he could completely suppress Wil Bynum. When Wil Bynum came to his own place, he could break through at will. He was certain that he was not as good as Li Feng, but he could not accept it if he showed so obviously.

How could this work? When Wilbynum broke through again, he took a ruthless move and gave Wilbynum a crutch from behind, but DJ Augustin was also back, and was immediately seen by the referee and immediately gave DJ Augustin a foul. DJ Augustin lost the game and lost the game.

Seeing this situation, Van Gundy hurriedly called a timeout. Now Van Gundy's face was dark and seemed to be punched in front of him. However, the reason for his face dark was neither his team had been caught up with or the bad performance of DJ Augustine.

Instead, the team's lack of Li Feng is like a team. This certainly shows that Li Feng's strength also makes the team rely too much on Li Feng. He consciously controls Li Feng's time to remind the players of this, but now he finds it is still too difficult.

Seeing Van Gundy's face turned pale, Dj Augustine thought he was going to suffer, but he thought that his poor performance was something Van Gundy had expected long ago, and he had never had any expectations for Meiyou and Dj Augustine.

Van Gundy said with a pale face:

"Okay, it's time for us to play now. Brand, Millsap, Al Thornton, Arenas, Ross is the time for you to play. After getting on the court, Ross, Arenas, you can make a breakthrough appropriately."

The main players of the Pelicans appeared, Li Feng sat behind and looked at the Pistons. He immediately discovered something interesting, and all the main players of the Pistons also appeared.

Point guard Jennings, scoring defender Stucky, small forward Josh Smith, center Drummond, but the Pistons did not replace their power forward position Charlie Villanueva.

The taste of this lineup is somewhat similar to that of Van Gundy in the Magic. Send a kite power forward out. Drummond's inside space will be immediately expanded during the attack, and at that time it will be a basis for Drummond to run rampant in the inside.

The Pelicans control the ball. The three Pelicans have three styles to stop the game. Ross is unpredictable, Li Feng is generous and steady, and DJ Augustine is hasty.

Ross is now on the court and has completely left the frustration of dealing with Jennings in the previous quarter. He uses his own dribble to pull the ball continuously. Usually this is an effective way for Ross to destroy the opponent's defense, but today he encounters Jennings but can't squeeze in.

The physical confrontation is not as real as the personal experience outside the court, but it is also easy to see. Generally, when physical contact, if one party can change the direction of movement of the other party, then this party is the one party with the advantage of the body, while the weak party is reflected in the appearance of being softer. You cannot obtain your own position according to your own ideas.

Ross has this effect in front of Jennings' ground. As long as he has physical contact with Jennings, he will not get the position he wants and be suppressed everywhere.

Ross' harassment tactics came over were not successful. He passed the ball to Millsap in the last 8 seconds. Millsap didn't have much time, but fortunately he had to face Villanueva. He forced his hand and had no choice but to watch Millsap score the goal.

But when it was the Pistons' turn to attack, the Pistons' entire offensive system immediately changed drastically, because Villanueva stood outside the three-point line, and Drummond was too easy to get stuck in the main position in the inside.

Jennings has been cooperating with Yao Ming for a while, and he is not unfamiliar with the skills of passing the ball to the inside. As soon as Jennings saw Drummondka's main position, he immediately stuffed the ball in.

At this time, Brand was leaning behind him. Drummond, who took the basketball, quickly turned around, shook in front of Brand, then immediately cut in, and then made a layup. Brand jumped up to block the block. Drummond even swayed a little in the air and made it open, and simply got these two points.

When seeing Drummond alone in the inside, Brand was so easy, Kenny Smith in the commentary seat seemed to have recalled something, he said:

"Now Van Gundy is finally enlightened. We used this method back then. Without a meat shield power forward, we can give our center a limitless space. If you have a strong center, then this is a good deal."

Penny Hardaway, hearing Kenny introduce his experience, he hit the opponent a little: "But if the opponent's center is stronger than yours, don't you know how to self-destruct your weakness."

Penny Hardaway refers to how he and O'Neal defeated Olajuwon, which Kenny Smith certainly remembered, so he opened his mouth and didn't say much?

Van Gundy, who was on the side, saw the Pistons' change of formation, and in his mind he was also thinking about countermeasures quickly. The big fat man Van Gundy's move was to expose the Pelicans' already weak areas to a larger extent.

After half a quarter of resting down, Ross had just tried it himself. There was no way to deal with Jennings with his own tricks, so Ross just organized the attack.

The ball was passed to Mirsap. Mirsap is now against Villanueva. Although this white man has a very good long shot, Villanueva is definitely not bad in defense and is quite desperate. As soon as Mirsap received the basketball, Villanueva pressed tightly on it, waving his arms up and down, as if a city wall was erected in front of Mirsap.

When encountering such a defensive defense, Mirsap had to play the advantage of his own footsteps and cut it out in one step to try to pass Villanueva. This was a good idea, but after passing Villanueva, Mirsap immediately encountered another mountain.

Drummond was waiting for Millsap in the inside. The two of them fought. Millsap pulled the ball with one hand and shot. Two strong forwards fought. Unfortunately, Drummond was born pervert. Millsap had no chance to throw the ball that touched the ball. Josh Smith, who was rushed in, bullied Al Thornton and got it from behind.

Josh Smith received the basketball and was strangely not in a hurry to pass the ball to Jennings. At this time, Jennings did not yell at the opponent to ask for the ball. This only means one thing. When Josh Smith handles the ball, it must be the attention of the opponent's head coach Stan Van Gundy.

So in this way, the Pistons had two tactics at the beginning of the second quarter, one used Villanueva to open up the space and beat Drummond, and the second was to use Josh Smith to fight against the relatively weak Al Thornton.

Play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Use your strongest location to attack and rule to block the opponent's weaknesses. I have to say that Stan Van Gundy's level is not enough, and his vision is absolutely unique.

Now that Josh Smith is coming to dribble, Al Thornton still has no way to deal with Josh Smith. This can be followed in front of Josh Smith and barely become a decorative defender.

Josh Smith went outside the Pelicans' three-point line, completely different from Jennings' impatientness. Seeing Josh Smith play, he didn't feel very excited or passionate at all, but he just felt like he was like that. He was even a little lazy.

But Josh Smith felt lazy and lazily, but he had a cold and cruel heart in his heart. He reached outside the three-point line and immediately raised the ball to find Drummond. At this time, Drummond even ran to the outside of the three-second zone to receive the ball in two steps.

Drummond still had great offensive power when receiving the ball at this position, because the Pelicans' defense was already very wide, and Millsap directly chased Villanueva and chased to the side of the third line.

Brand made a mistake at this time. That was to give this space for pretending to be a god when defending Drummond. When he saw Drummond walking far away, he did not completely stick it up, giving Drummond a space for one step.

At this time, Brand had not realized how serious his mistake was. Drummond took the ball and turned around and turned to face the basket. There were no obstacles in front of him that could prevent his first step from starting.

This made Drummond increase the maximum speed in one step and penetrate towards the bottom line. When he saw Brand, who cut in with this speed and strength, he immediately regretted it, but he had no chance to make up for it. The defense he pounced on was like a moth to a flame, and it did not bring any confusion to Drummond at all.

I saw Drummond, who was walking in at the bottom line, flew in the air like a dragon entering the sea. He twisted his whole body behind the rebound, and then dodged Brand, and then dunked back, taking it as if it was like a dragon, turning the rivers and seas.

"Boom" a heavy button hit the Pelicans' basket. At that time, the fans of the Auburn Arena cheered. They were like people sitting in the modern Colosseum. At any time, blood and barbarity are the love of the dark hearts of human beings.

After Drummond happily tightened the ball, he roared very wildly. It was rare to see Drummond like this. Now Drummond is completely because he played too depressed in the first quarter.

Van Gundy began to take steps back and forth on the sideline again. He was thinking about how to change the formation to curb the bombardment of the gods in his inside line. However, countless plans and cases formed in Van Gundy's mind, but they became a bubble again.

Because I don’t have many chips available in my hands now, even the most skilled chef needs ingredients. Without sufficient ingredients, how can I complete the tactics?

Van Gundy, who had no choice but to bet now, turned around and suddenly shouted at Brand just now:

"Brand, go around, go around, defend, don't let Drummond catch the ball."

Li Feng was sitting in the rest seat. Hearing Van Gundy yelling like this, he really wanted to jump up and cover Van Gundy's mouth. What kind of trick is this? It's just a bad trick. It is definitely a very effective trick for Yao Ming's footsteps and center forwards that are not good at bounce. However, against a bouncing superman like Drummond, bounce will only provide him with countless opportunities for reversal.

The Pelicans stepped into the Pistons' half again. This time, the Pelicans finally did not return empty-handed. The long-lost Ross was suppressed by Jennings for a long time. This time he also played tricks on the opponent once, tricked him away from the defense and scored two points.

The Pistons immediately got the ball back and came back. In the halftime, Jennings immediately passed the ball to Josh Smith again. At this time, he used Josh Smith several times and Stan Van Gundy's thoughts were already known to everyone. He wanted to use Josh Smith to bully Al Thornton, and this is what he wanted to do.

Josh Smith took the ball and looked inside, and was defending the front. Brand was trying hard to block Drummond backwards. Seeing this situation, Josh Smith immediately laughed. He didn't hesitate at all. He took a big step and cut directly into the Pelicans' basket from the middle. Al Thornton followed Josh Smith, without oppressing the opponent or interfering with the opponent's ability. Drummond Brand had to hurry back at the basket to protect the team's famous goal, and the area under the three-second area.

But as soon as he saw Brand move, Josh Smith on this side once again showed his natural understanding of basketball. When he broke through, he threw the ball up with one hand.

The ball was gone, and Josh Smith was like a piston player performing live. She played with a small piston for everyone, and then she had a naughty battle eye and smiled jokingly. But Brand's face turned blue at that time.

No one knows better what is about to happen than him. After this entanglement, Brand has completely understood the essence of Drummond. As long as you leave him a little bit of space, he can make actions that make you regret, let alone that he is so far away from him now.

The blue bomber appeared in the Pelicans' airspace again. With a huge orange bomb, it crashed violently over the Pelicans' capital. It was a dunk and an air relay.

Van Gundy was not even alarmed when he was moving around the front defense. Van Gundy's brain and eyes turned, he cracked Van Gundy's incorrect defense method.

At this time, Van Gundy also knew his mistake clearly. He covered his face with regret and immediately called a timeout. Now he must find a way to curb Drummond, otherwise the team will face a greater crisis. Van Gundy is very clear about this.

Seeing his teammates coming back, Li Feng had a little sympathy on his face. There was only one source of his pretending to be powerful, that is space. If he gave him space, he could be brilliant.

Van Gundy looked at Li Feng at this time. He really wanted to put Li Feng on the court. He was sure that Li Feng would defend Villanueva's shot well, and Millsap could turn Drummond into a pinch.

This idea is very tempting, but Li Feng is still in "injury", Van Gundy could only sigh and said:

"Paul, you can relax properly on Villanueva, Arenas, Ross, you should also pay attention to attacking Drummond. We can't let Drummond fight too easily. Al, you can pass Josh Smith."

This question is a bit abrupt, but Al Thornton still nodded quickly. Instinctively, he felt that his opportunity had come, but since it was an opportunity, there would be risks, he did not expect this for the time being.

"Since that's the case, Al, you can break through without regard for the quicker, the better, the more fierce you are. It doesn't matter if you are blocked. I just ask you to be faster and more fierce."

Van Gundy said this and Al Thornton immediately smiled. This requirement was not difficult for him. Li Feng was shocked. There were many such players in the league. When they were young, they were human bombs in the coach's hands and directly stuffed them into the opponent's position and exploded. Such players usually receive great welcome in a certain amount of time, but such players are also prone to injuries, so after Van Gundy's timeout is over.

Li Feng took advantage of Al Thornton's appearance and shook his hand and said:

"Al, be careful of your health."

Li Feng's eyes were very sincere. Al Thornton suddenly felt a little moved. He hugged Li Feng gently and said:

"I will."

In the half, after halftime, Rose passed the ball to Elsanton, and the remaining four players in the Pelicans pulled all to the left side of the court, leaving all the right side to Elsanton and Josh Smith.

Al Thornton was not good at breaking through, but now in the Pelicans lineup, Ross is stared at by Jennings, and Arenas is not a breakthrough defender. Only Al Thornton has a speed advantage over Josh Smith.

Van Gundy could only play the only favorable card of Al Thornton. Al Thornton was bullied by Josh Smith just now. Now that the ball has reached Al Thornton's hands, and with Van Gundy's highest instructions, Al Thornton felt completely at ease.

After receiving the ball, his body swung quickly and directly inserted into the inside of the piston. Al Thornton inserted it very fiercely and suddenly. Josh Smith did not react for a while.

I could only watch Al Thornton rise up. Al Thornton's move cannot be said to be how fast and unstoppable it is, but it is definitely beyond the expectations of everyone in the Pistons.

Even Drummond, who was guarding the basket, did not react. He was cut in by Elsanton and easily reached two points.

"After Van Gundy was suspended, he strengthened his breakthrough? Doesn't he know how to write the word "death"?"

Penny Hardaway twitched the corners of his mouth, trying to sneer, and trying to mock him.

"He means to make Drummond's killing, which is a very common practice."
