Chapter 994
Regarding the grievances between Kobe and Garnett, Lamar didn't have the time to pay attention to it. Now Lamar will have to face the Detroit Pistons first.
In New York, the two teams fought to a 1-1 draw, and the Knicks gave up their hard-won home court.
Now that they have moved to the Detroit Auburn Hills Palace Arena, the Detroit Pistons are at home, and after occupying the advantage of geography and people, people naturally voted for the Pistons.
This season, the Detroit Pistons' home court is the graveyard of the league's most famous visiting team, and no team has been able to get out of it all except for the Chicago New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers, who have won all of them.
Although the Knicks have a good record in the regular season, looking at the state of the first two games, even if their combat effectiveness has increased since the second game, the Knicks are still unlucky in the face of the Detroit Pistons playing at home.
On the day of the game, the Auburn Hills Palace was overcrowded early, and more than 20,000 Detroit fans once again dressed it up as the Devil's home stadium, and countless slogans filled the entire stands.
"Every time I come here, I feel uncomfortable, this place is just terrible! It's hard to imagine that the workers in the Motor City will be like this. The Knicks players waiting in the tunnel were gathering to observe the fortress they had to storm tonight.
"I don't think it's anything, every city, every stadium has its own culture. Because of the Detroit fans, the people here believe in iron and blood, no wonder they call this the grave of the away team!" Antonio Davis seems very calm, his temperament has been honed in more than ten years of career, and he can calmly deal with any external factors.
"Fight! Knicks!" remembered as DJ's voice recalled, and the Knicks' side also sounded a long-lost slogan.
"Fight!
"They can think, but it can only be delusional. I'm not going to give up a win or a championship!" Rasheed Wallace said viciously as he heard the Knicks' declaration of battle.
Losing the last game made Roaring Tianzun feel breathless until now. In particular, Lamar's remarks at the post-match press conference made him even more unable to let go. Even now that I think about it, Rashid Wallace gritted his teeth, he had never been insulted like that in his more than ten years of career.
When the time for the game came, the scene became quiet, and then people heard the classic voice of the DJ on the spot.
"These bastards!" Lamar's face turned eggplant color when he heard DJ's introduction, "It's despicable, do Detroiters think this can make us scared?"
But at this time, Lamar couldn't help but go out, originally he planned to go out with his teammates in a slightly low-key manner, but when the storm of wild shouts mixed with laughter blew over from all directions, Lamar couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed out with his comrades unusually arrogantly, and kept waving his hands to provoke the Detroit fans.
After all the Knicks players gathered in front of the bench, Lamar looked at him, then turned back to the Detroit fans behind him and raised his arms and shouted, "Fight!
The Knicks and the others immediately responded to the boss's call: "Fight!
The Detroit fans who were still laughing and scolding just now suddenly became quiet, and everyone's faces became awe-inspiring and solemn, obviously the fighting spirit of the Knicks generals caused them a serious crisis.
With the introduction of the DJ on the scene, the palace of Auburn Hills, which was originally a little silent under Lamar's provocation, became noisy again.
Rasheed Wallace slowly walked onto the court to the sound of live music and high-fived his Pistons teammates who came out first. In the end, he roared and ran to the technical statistics desk, jumped up uncharacteristically, looked at the Knicks' bench and raised his arms and shouted: "Down with the Knicks!"
"Down with the Knicks!" The fans at the scene also came back to their senses after a moment of silence, and immediately responded: "Down with the Knicks!"
"It's like a clown!" Dampott pouted disdainfully as he watched Rashid's monkey-like provocation. This has both his prejudices against the Roaring Heavenly Venerable these days, and naturally jealousy is also indispensable.
After the appearance ceremony, Lamar took the initiative to walk up to Rashid Wallace and stretched out his hand with a smile: "Tonight, we will bloody Auburn Hills!"
Lamar's tone was very provocative, and Rasheed Wallace, as the master, was not to be outdone: "This place is not as simple as you think! This will be the Knicks' grave tonight!"
"Oh, yes? I'm glad it makes me feel uncomfortable here!"
Rasheed Wallace was stunned for a moment, and smiled hideously: "The game still has to be on the court to see the real kung fu." Now no matter how poisonous your words are, it is useless to shout slogans no matter how much you think about them. It's like the old man's face that likes to sprinkle white before the game, it's all the behavior of a clown. ”
"Oh, yes?
"As you wish!"
The two separated, and the game officially began.
The referee walked to the halfway line and beckoned Ben Wallace and Darmsport to come over and scramble for the ball.
The basketball was tossed into the air, and Dampoter and Ben Wallace jumped up at the same time, stretching out their arms to fight for the right to strike first.
In the end, it was Ben Wallace who was the better at it, and his finger touched the basketball. But Lamar reacted noticeably quicker, grabbed the ball in his hands again before Axel, and then accelerated towards the Detroit Pistons' half.
"Here we go again!" Rashid Wallace felt a pang of distress in his heart, the last game was a sneak attack by Lamar, which made them very passive throughout the game, so that the Pistons were always in the role of chaser.
Now Lamar has come again in a new bottle of old wine, but the Detroit Pistons still have nothing to do. The point is that Lamar's speed is so fast that they don't have time to react.
"Defend!" shouted Rasheed Wallace and chased after him, but it was in vain for him to speed up his pace, and the distance between him and Lamar could only get farther and farther.
However, Prince reacted quickly enough to quickly overtake Lamar and stand in his way.
Prince was supposed to be rested for this game, and the injury he sustained in the last game is not completely healed so far. But for the sake of the championship, Prince finally persuaded Larry Brown to stick to the court after the injection. It's a pity that his state is difficult to guarantee.
Lamar also saw that Prince's right shoulder injury was obviously not good, and he had some difficulty moving. Seeing that there was an opportunity, Lamar immediately attacked Prince's injured side, he was not a decent man, all he wanted was to defeat his opponent.
was caught by Lamar for his weakness, and Prince was also depressed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Now that he is injured, he doesn't dare to fight hard at all, so he can only keep retreating and compressing his defense.
Lamar was getting faster and faster, and as he crossed the free-throw line, he suddenly turned the ball around, jumped up with his back to Prince, held the ball in both hands, and made a pull motion on his chest before dunking the ball back into the net.
"Boom!"
"Ahh
After landing on the ground, Lamar didn't look at Prince, but walked straight to Rashid Wallace, sneered and said, "It looks like this game is going to be ours again!"
Rashid Wallace snorted unconvinced: "Now the game has just begun, if you are proud now, it is a little too early, right?"
"I've always had confidence in myself!"
Lamar left after saying that, ignoring the angry Rashid Wallace.
Once back in his own half, Lamar began directing his team-mates to set up the defence. Although Lamar didn't take the Detroit Pistons' five tigers seriously in words just now, the strength of the other party is really there, even if you want to ignore it.
Besides, now that the Knicks are in the tiger's den, they should be more cautious to avoid accidentally falling into the other party's way.
The Detroit Pistons' offense, Axel passed the ball to Rasheed Wallace after halftime. Roaring Tianzun is still the old routine, and after leaning on Dampoter, he suddenly turned around and shot, and the basketball hollowed into the net.
Seeing that the ball had scored, Rasheed Wallace raised his eyebrows and waved his fist at Lamar, looking quite arrogant.
"That's amazing!" Lamar secretly exclaimed in his heart.
Roaring Tianzun's counterattack only aroused Lamar's desire to fight. If it weren't, the match wouldn't be interesting, and the stronger the opponent, the stronger Lamar's desire to win the game became.
The Knicks attacked, and Lamar received a pass from Billups from outside the three-point line, bobbed twice, and then suddenly jumped up to shoot. Ben Wallace was limited by his height and weight, and although he was quick enough to react, he was a little slower to act, and by the time he pounced to block, Lamar had already thrown the ball.
"Huh!"
The ball was scored, and the score on the court became 5:3, and the Knicks led by three points.
The Detroit Pistons attacked again, and the basketball still passed to Rasheed Wallace.
Rasheed Wallace probed for a moment, and saw that Dampoter's defense had significantly improved, and he didn't plan to force it. After all, the game has just begun, and if he works hard so early, his physical strength will not be able to support it at all, and he will have to stop trying to be dragged down by the Knicks when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Rashid Wallace passed the ball to Hamilton, who received the ball and quickly moved sideways, Wade followed, but crashed into the arms of Ben Wallace, who pulled out to block the pick-and-roll.
