The location was mentioned!

The new lineup of Chucky Atkins, Joan Barry, Chris Williams, Clifford Robinson, and Ben Wallace.

Just one player was changed, but in this way, the Pistons' playing style has almost completely changed! This change of formation caught the Eagles a little off guard!

However, accidents were accidents, and the Eagles quickly calmed down. Coach Kruger took a deep breath. The other party obviously did this to disrupt their defensive arrangement. It may also be to enhance the strength of the substitute lineup and let Star

Khaus has a higher degree of freedom to show his personal abilities in the substitute lineup.

But no matter what the opponent's purpose is, our side has a strength advantage, so it cannot waver the Eagles.

Ratliff and Ben Wallace came to the center circle to wait for the jump ball.

As the saying goes, enemies are extremely jealous when they meet. Ratliff and Ben Wallace had little contact before. Ratliff became famous early, while Ben Wallace had no fame in his early years. He only had 4 points and 8 rebounds last season and only rose to prominence this year.

.

But the two had a big fight when they met for the first time this season. It was Ratliff who faced off directly with Ben Wallace. Not to mention, Ratliff pushed Ben Wallace several times.

, he seems to be honest and pretty good at fighting.

The two not only have conflicts on the court, but they are also their biggest competitors in terms of honors. The Hawks have a good record and Ratliff is the block leader, but Ben Wallace has strong defensive impact and is the rebound leader. The Pistons record

It’s not bad. It’s really hard to say who this year’s best defensive player and defensive team will be!

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As the referee's whistle sounds to start the game, the ball is thrown into the air, Ratliff and Ben Wallace jump the ball!

Ratliff worked hard, but Ben Wallace won the jump ball by a clear margin.

The Pistons attack first.

Atkins advanced, Dean Grove defended, Atkins waited with the ball in the top arc, Jon Barry came out from the baseline, Jason Terry was very excited in the playoffs and chased

It was very tight. Joan Barry accepted Clifford Robinson's pick-and-roll at a 45-degree angle on the right side. Muhammad, who was guarding Clifford Robinson, quickly changed defense and pounced towards the 45-degree angle outside the three-point line.

but!

After accepting the pick-and-roll, Jon Barry ran back and helped Clifford Robinson block Jason Terry, who was changing defense. Clifford Robinson helped Jon Barry pick-and-roll without the ball and then rushed directly to the right corner. Atkin

When Clifford Robinson initially set up a pick-and-roll for Jon Barry, he passed the ball to the right corner!

The ball reached the bottom corner almost at the same time, and Clifford Robinson made a three-pointer from the street!

Perfect and smooth cooperation, the timing of catching the ball was just right, Clifford Robinson hit a three-pointer!

Not only is he a strong defensive player, not only a good cutter, not only an active player who will be 36 years old at the end of the year and still has endless vitality, he is also a three-pointer with a career average of 36% three-point shooting rate.

!

So unexpected!

The Hawks thought that the Pistons' offense might use Jon Barry as a containment point, but they thought about Ben Wallace's alley-oop dunk, thought about Atkins taking the opportunity to break through, and thought about Chris Williams' mid-range shot.

But I didn’t expect it to be Clifford Robinson, who has greatly reduced his outside shooting as he ages!

Liu Mang looked at the cooperation of the Pistons on the field, and a team suddenly popped up in his head. It was still the Pistons, but it was just the Pistons Five!

This is clearly the pick-and-roll tactic used by the Pistons' top five points around Richard Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace, the team's first and second scoring points!

Liu Mang was so confused. Why did Coach Carlisle already have the tactics of the Larry Brown era?

Or? This is because Coach Carlisle has almost developed the offense that the Five Tigers can have. After Larry Brown goes, he can just focus on defense and directly take over the offensive system!

No wonder! When Larry Brown left, he didn’t even need to adjust the new tactics and won the championship directly.

Liu Mang looked at Jim Carrey, what a miserable coach.

Unlike the Pistons, who lack offensive talent and rely on team offense to play, the Eagles are straightforward and rough. Raheem sat in the low post on the left side of the basket to ask for the ball, and Jason Terry also passed the ball to the same side.

To Rahim, Muhammad, Ratliff, and Dean Grove are all on the other side. Rahim's single attracted a double-team from Atkins who was defending Jason Terry and passed out to

Jason Terry, Jason Terry made a three-pointer.

Simple and direct, Jason Terry was on fire in the playoffs. Although he only averaged 19 points per game in the first round, his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 49% in the three games, which continued perfectly into the second round.

.

The competition between team offense and individual ability is what the Pistons are good at, and there is no way around it.

Coach Carlisle has done the best he can, replacing Jon Barry, using a team offense to counter the opponent's two stars, and then... using Stackhouse to deal with the rookie over there!

Although he doesn't like Stackhouse's style of play, he recognizes Stackhouse's strength. He can't be worse than a rookie!

…

…

The first quarter lasted for more than four minutes, and the two teams were tied at 11. The opponent scored 11 points in 4 minutes. Coach Kruger couldn't help but call a timeout.

Although the Pistons' offensive firepower was far inferior to that of the Hawks, they relied on complex, changeable and well-executed offensive tactics to withstand the double attack of Raheem and Jason Terry.

Both teams have defensive problems. The Pistons' three defenses are too poor. Although the two interior defenses are no worse than the Hawks' defense, or even slightly better, the defense from the point guard to the small forward is really bad!

When the Pistons and the Hawks played against each other twice after the regular season, the three Eagles already had a perfect tacit understanding, but their three outsiders couldn't handle it, so the Hawks won two games in a row.

The Eagles, on the other hand, were overwhelmed by the opponent's cunning and changeable offensive tactics. How could there be a coach who could make the most of all the role players?

Coach Carlisle says he can!

Both sides seemed evenly matched, with no one gaining the upper hand.

But in this case, for the Eagles, it is a failure! They are more than a dozen games ahead in record, and this is their home court! If they continue to be anxious like this, the morale brought by the home field advantage will be wiped out!

"Ace..." Coach Kruger was about to wave his hand, but when he saw Liu Mang... really, the passion he had just raised because of the fierceness of his opponent almost disappeared.

Seeing Liu Mang actually playing with a dice, Coach Kruger came over and slapped the dice out of Liu Mang's hand: "Hurry up! You don't usually run so fast!"

Liu Mang was stunned. He hadn't decided whether to use it yet, coach! You...

Looking at Coach Kruger's angry eyes, Liu Mang didn't even look at the numbers on the dice in order to avoid being beaten. He picked up the dice and put them in the system space and ran to the court quickly. He was surprised and because of the opponent's playing style.

I feel...a little ashamed of how I dressed up today.

This feels so special.

At the same time, I'm thinking about whether to use this mission dice today. I didn't use it in the first round because I didn't know how the game would turn out. It's my first time participating in the playoffs, so don't accidentally get cheated.

But today, because he was quite confident with this "equipment", he wanted to use it, but he was still hesitant. He didn't expect that the coach had to change players in advance. Usually, it was an official timeout in the first quarter, so Liu Mang didn't think about it yet.

Whether you want to use it or not is directly decided by the coach...

…

Seeing Liu Mang coming on stage, the crowd started to boo.

"T-Ace..."

"T-Ace..."

"..."

"..."

When Liu Mang came on the stage, he received cheers from the audience, but with a T in front of his name, Liu Mang seemed to reply with a T, your sister!

But Liu Mang was a little curious. Does this T mean bad? Or does it mean talent? Or does it mean heavy taste? Or is it simply the beginning of Terry's last name?

In terms of English usage, if it were Terry's surname, it should be called Ace-Terry, not T-Ace...

It is said that fools have no worries, and shameless people may not have worries because they think too much and forget the depression at the beginning...

When Jason Terry came up after listening to the coach's tactics, the cheers of the fans at the scene changed.

"Brothers with hairbands...Brothers with hairbands..."

Liu Mang was so depressed that he almost cursed his mother. He would never wear a headband again in this life!

Just as the Eagles expected, when Liu Mang was applying powder on the technical table, he saw a guy with an extremely unhappy expression. Jerry Stackhouse, No. 42 of the Pistons, also came to apply powder!

Stackhouse glared at Liu Mang fiercely. He was very unhappy today. Before the game started, when he was about to go on the court, the coach temporarily told him to let him play as a substitute!

This severely damaged Stackhouse's self-esteem! At the same time, he hated Liu Mang deeply because the coach told him to deal with this rookie.

Newbie again!

Stackhouse hates rookies the most in his life! Thinking of Liu Mang's confident look during several battles, Stackhouse gets angry. That damn high school student also has this annoying confidence!

"Tch! You want to overwhelm me with a data brush? You can't even beat a high school student... It's hard to say normally, but today I'm a super jet!" Liu Mang shouted in his heart: "System, use

Jason Terry star card!”

"The host uses the Jason Terry star card, the special requirements are met, the time limit is increased to the whole game, and the ability value bonus is being calculated..."

Less than a second: "Ding... the host's current abilities are: ability value 85, three-pointer 91, mid-range shot 80, layup 82, speed 94, strength 77..."

Improvement of all-round capabilities!

Liu Mang took a look at Stackhouse's ability score and found that he was indeed a formidable opponent! A super scorer who averaged 29.8 points per game in a single season!

"Jerry Stackhouse, ability value 85, offense 88, defense 60, three-pointer 79, mid-range shot 83, layup 87, speed 90, strength 81..."

Except for the defense, which is really hard to watch. Except for Jordan, most of the North Carolina players seem to have explosive talents due to this virtue. They are strong in offense and weak in defense. Although they are not top-notch overall, they have very balanced internal and external scoring abilities, especially in the low post.

He has excellent physical ability and can almost steal Iverson's scoring title with his large number of shots. It is difficult to guard against him!
