Chapter 997
At this time, Lamar's touch began to decline, and he missed two consecutive shots.
The Detroit Pistons, on their part, closed the gap with Rasheed Wallace's assists and scoring.
Seeing the team's advantage disappearing little by little, Van Gundy was also a little anxious and quickly called a timeout, at which time the Knicks' advantage was only 6 points.
"It doesn't look like the Detroit Pistons are at the point of despair. Guys, we're going to work hard!" Although dissatisfied with the team's performance just now, but after all, the team is still in the lead, Van Gundy did not express his emotions too much: "The Detroit Pistons are now using Rasheed Wallace as the core of the organization. Samuel, Lamar, your next task is to cut off his passing lanes, you 。。。。。。 ”
"Jeff, I don't think there's any need to change tactics at all!" Lamar suddenly interrupted Van Gundy: "It's not as bad as it seems! The Detroit Pistons now have all hope in Rasheed Wallace, as long as they control him." As for cutting off the passing lane?Jeff, you're asking too much, it's completely impossible. ”
Van Gundy was stunned for a moment and realized that his request was a bit unrealistic, after all, there were so many passing lines, but there were only five players on the field, and it was impossible to completely cut off Rasheed Wallace's passing lines.
"So what should we do next?"
Lamar smiled slightly: "Samuel, let's change the guard, you go and defend that explosive head." Sean, you just have to defend Prince's mid-range shot when you deal with him, he has a shoulder injury, and if he keeps breaking through the attack, he won't be able to last long. ”
"Lamar, do you want to do it yourself, can you keep up with your stamina?" Van Gundy said as soon as he said that he had made a rather stupid decision.
"Don't worry! I know my own fitness!" Lamar said, standing up and walking to the court, "I'll leave that guy to me!"
The game started again, and the Knicks attacked.
Lamar made a clever pass inside, and Darmsport received the ball and turned around and passed it to Battier.
Prince, who was defending Battier, was blocked by Dampoter, and Battier scored an easy basketball.
On the Detroit Pistons' side of the offense, Rasheed Wallace still stayed in his half court as he had just done, wanting to assist Xcel with the dribble.
But at this time, the situation on the Knicks' side changed. Lamar suddenly pounced, startling Rashid Wallace.
A long pass from Roaring Tianzun subconsciously gave the ball to Hamilton, and then quickly rushed to the free throw line.
Hamilton tried several times but couldn't find a shot, and saw that Rasheed Wallace was already in position, and passed the ball back.
"Lamar has changed Rasheed Wallace!" Wharton in the commentary box exclaimed, such a scene has already happened, but it is still surprising that it happened at this time.
Rasheed Wallace couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw that it was Lamar who was defending him. After a little bit of stabilization, Rasheed Wallace decided that the ball was going to be singled. But after he dribbled twice, he realized that Lamar seemed to have anticipated his choice and was already waiting there. So no matter how much the roaring Tianzun exerted, he couldn't move forward in the slightest.
Seeing that the game was about to get back on track, Rasheed Wallace hurriedly passed the ball and handed it to Prince to deal with.
Seeing Prince get the ball, Battier immediately posted it and didn't give Prince a chance to turn around at all.
While Prince has a good back-to-back offense, that's when he's not injured. At this time, affected by the shoulder injury, let alone turning around and attacking, even if he was hit by Battier once or twice, he would pull the injury and grin his teeth.
Rasheed Wallace saw that Prince's situation was not optimistic, and hurriedly pulled to the outside to respond.
Prince was a little overwhelmed, and when he saw Rasheed Wallace asking for the ball, he quickly passed it.
Rasheed Wallace's eyes were red after receiving the ball, and he didn't even think about it and went straight to the basket with the ball.
I have to say that Rashid Wallace is really a very well-rounded interior player, not only attacking as far as the three-point line, but also playing well with the ball and breaking through the offense.
Lamar tried to step forward to defend, but was stopped by Ben Wallace's pick-and-roll.
Dampot, who switched to defense, couldn't keep up with the pace and speed of Rashid Wallace at all, and was left behind.
Seeing this, Lamar hurried back to the basket and hid behind Ben Wallace like a ghost.
Rasheed Wallace had no obstacles before he met, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, and he roared angrily and sped up, rushing forward to get a slam dunk.
But at this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of the roaring Tianzun.
At this time, Lamar was standing outside the three-second zone with a wicked smile on his face, and Rasheed Wallace thought that it was too late to brake, so he could only crash into it.
Lamar was also cooperative, falling to the ground as the referee's whistle blew.
Offensive foul!
Although Rasheed Wallace was depressed, he had to admit that Lamar's defense was really beautiful with the ball just now. It's just that what makes him most angry is Ben Wallace, who is hidden behind him and doesn't know anything about it.
"Smack!"
Rasheed Wallace received a pass from Axel and advanced with the ball, but was cut off by an easy slap from Lamar, who caught up.
Although Rasheed Wallace's ball control ability is good among big men, his tricks are obviously not enough in the face of a steal master like Lamar.
The basketball had just reached Rasheed Wallace's hand, and before it could be slapped twice, it was cut off by Lamar's unceremonious slap. Then Lamar went straight to the heart of the Detroit Pistons, facing an unguarded basket and easily dunked.
The Detroit Pistons kicked off again, but Billups still pressed for Xcel.
After a few mistakes in a row, Axel's confidence also dropped to freezing point, and seeing Rasheed Wallace assisting next to him, he passed the ball without even thinking about it.
This time Rasheed Wallace was much more careful. In the face of Lamar's pressing, after he dribbled the ball twice, he saw that there was no chance, and he was afraid that Lamar would cut off the ball, so he hurriedly threw the ball forward.
But as soon as the ball was shot, Lamar, who had been prepared, jumped up and grabbed it in his hand.
"Damn!" Rashid Wallace scolded, and hurriedly stepped back.
How could the speed of the Roaring Celestial Venerable keep up with Lamar's speed? Although Rashid Wallace's mobility is very strong, there is still a big gap between him and Lamar.
Lamar's dazzling dribbling movements shook Rasheed Wallace, who stepped forward to defend, unsteadily. A distracted kung fu, the roaring Tianzun was wiped away by Lamar.
Lamar went straight to the basket and it was another slam dunk.
The Detroit Pistons, for their part, are not giving up. I don't know if it's because the effect of seeing Rasheed Wallace as a playmaker on the inside just now is not bad, or because Larry Brown can't find a way to restrain the Knicks, the Pistons' tactics on the court still haven't changed.
But this time, Axel's pass was intercepted by Lamar before it could reach Rashid Wallace's hands. After the break, Lamar was followed by another dragon fast, turning in the air and smashing the ball with a 360° one-arm split.
"Is that all you have to do?" Lamar didn't forget to hit Rashid Wallace when he returned to defense, and his cold tone pierced Rashid Wallace's heart like an ice pick.
For the first time since the series began, Rasheed Wallace felt disappointed, even hopeless! The Detroit Pistons are strong, but Lamar is even stronger. Lamar was like a mountain in the path of the Detroit Pistons, keeping them from making inch.
Looking at Lamar's distant back, Rashid Wallace's heart was gloomy.
To be honest, if it weren't for Lamar, if there wasn't this person, I don't think anyone would have the ability to stop the Pistons from achieving their championship dreams this season.
But that's just an imagination, Lamar really exists, and he's keeping the Pistons out of the Finals right now. The Pistons were not reconciled, they tried to storm, but in vain.
You must know that the Pistons are at home in this game, and in Auburn Hills, they can take advantage of the momentum of the home court to occupy the time, place, and people. But they were restrained by Lamar alone, and it was only difficult to win this game.
Indeed, as Rasheed Wallace imagined, without Lamar's existence, this season's championship would indeed be theirs.
In the case of the Los Angeles Five Lucky Stars and the Spurs' GDP is still immature, the Pistons Five Tigers can be called the best in the league in terms of experience and strength. But fate played a big joke on them, Lamar showed up, and he was going to take everything from them, including the championship that they had been dreaming about.
Larry Brown's Princeton tactics had failed, and although the boss later replaced Rasheed Wallace with Hamilton to dribble with Axel, it had little effect.
With the big general Gilbert Arenas on the pitch and turning into an attacking machine, even the experienced Hamilton couldn't help but panic.
"Steady, steady! We still have time, take your time! Don't rush!"
Although Larry Brown kept shouting from the sidelines, trying to calm down his players and play steadily. But the growing gap in scores is really hard for the Detroit Pistons players to keep a calm heart.
As a result, the Pistons seem to have entered a dead loop, and the situation on the court seems to be more and more chaotic.
This happened to fall into the hands of the Knicks, and winning in chaos has always been their best way of fighting. With the Detroit Pistons messing up first, they played like a fish in water.
The gap in the score was widened, and by the last five minutes of the fourth quarter, the margin had widened to 21 points. It can be said that in the face of a strong opponent like the Knicks, the Detroit Pistons have basically no power to recover. 2k reading web
