Chapter 1150
After Mourning received the basketball, he forced Rasheed Wallace to squeeze into the inside line and shoot out!
"Bang!"
The basketball bounced on the inside of the basket and went into the net!
The offense and defense switched again, and after Daniels brought the basketball to the frontcourt, he didn't choose to hand it to Kenyon Martin, but handed the basketball to the roaring Tianzun on the inside.
Rasheed Wallace didn't fight Mourning after receiving the ball, but pulled to the free throw line and hit a jumper.
"Alonzo, this is not going to work! follow him! follow him!" Lamar shouted out a little unhappy with Mourning's defense.
Mo Ning also knew that he was a little careless when defending this ball, and nodded quickly after hearing Lamar's words.
Although Lamar was dissatisfied with Mourning's defense, he was quite satisfied with the old guy's attack just now, so he controlled the ball and made a few gestures to his teammates.
Everyone in the Knicks nodded.
The Pistons, for their part, made the same decision at this time, allowing Rasheed Wallace, who has better offensive skills, to lead the game.
The rest of the year was a complete offensive duel between the two centers. Neither of them could defend anyone, and the other players on both sides did not go over to make up for the defense, but just let the main center forwards of the two sides explode each other.
In the mutual explosion between the two, the score at the end of the first quarter was quite harmonious, 22:22!
Sitting on the bench for a while, the managers of both teams shouted loudly about the next tactics. The game restarted after shouting hoarsely.
After the game restarted, the Pistons head coach obviously didn't want to let Roar Tianzun continue to play alone, and they didn't have as many personnel on the interior as the Knicks.
Under the arrangement of the head coach, Rashid took the initiative to pull outside the three-point line to block and respond to his teammates.
That's when Hamilton stepped up and took over the game.
After Hamilton got rid of Wade with Kenyon Martin's pick-and-roll, he smoothly received a pass from Rasheed Wallace. Then Masked Man wanted to end the fight with a concise mid-range shot.
It's a pity that the corner of his eye swept away, and he found that Wade was not far from him.
Hamilton was surprised, he didn't expect Wade to be so fast and be able to catch up with him after being blocked by Martin.
As if they were a mutual restraint, Wade's speed in the NBA was definitely a bag in the NBA, and he seemed to exist to defend these skillful and dexterous players. And because of Coach K's advice, Wade has long had a deep study of Hamilton.
Hamilton's running skills are outstanding, but his other abilities are relatively average. And he obviously used the wrong way today, and actually wanted to get rid of Wade by speed.
Hamilton's physical talent is average, and he is obviously much worse than a talented genius like Wade. Obviously, it will be difficult for him to get rid of Wade in the same way as before, and this is exactly what Wade wants.
Hamilton couldn't find any chance to make a move after a few attempted thrusts. In the end, he had to pass the basketball to Radmanovic on the outside.
Radmanovic took the ball and threw it, looking very confident, but "bang!" sounded, the basketball hit the iron!
"Huh!"
Mo Ning shouted angrily, and pressed the roaring Tianzun to win the rebound. Then the old guy handed the ball to Billups for the first time to organize the next attack.
After half-time, Billups still got the ball into Lamar's hands.
In the face of Kenyon Martin's defense, Lamar suddenly shouted: "We're going to have a 10-point lead before halftime!"
"Okay!" the Knicks and other players responded, completely ignoring the anger thrown by the Pistons players. It's as if the Pistons players on the scene weren't on the court at all.
In the face of Kenyon Martin's defense, Lamar raised his left hand and swung it lightly, then slammed the ball and moved laterally to the left.
Moning, who understood it, pulled out as soon as possible and made a solid block for Lamar.
When Martin bumped into Mourning, he was stabbed by the old guy with his elbow covertly, and Kenyon Martin only felt a burst of anger.
In terms of physical strength, Mo Ning is no worse than the big-mouthed champion.
After getting rid of Martin's defense, Lamar quickly cut inside and dunked the ball into the basket while also causing a foul on Wallace, two plus one!
Roaring Tianzun stood up and walked directly to the referee, but the referee completely ignored Wallace, who kept screaming, and did not believe Rashid Wallace's words. After all, there are too many criminal records of Roaring Tianzun.
Through this offense, it can be seen that the strength of the New York Knicks is indeed more than a step higher than that of the Detroit Pistons.
In fact, not many people are optimistic that the Detroit Pistons can beat the New York Knicks.
To be honest, the reason why the Detroit Pistons were able to go all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals was because of their interior play.
And this is precisely the Knicks' strong point, it can be said that the Knicks' reserve of internal talents is absolutely the best in the league! Moreover, the Knicks still have Lamar in this regard.
Looking at the Knicks' staffing, there are seven of them on the inside. Although Dampot and Hilario are not available for use at the moment, Mourning, Anderson, Dacomilisic, plus Ewing the Gorilla, are enough to play against any strong team even without Lamar.
Strength, height, offense, defense, experience, it can be said that the current Knicks lack nothing inside.
So the Pistons want to beat the Knicks on the inside, which is obviously wishful thinking and a dream!
Even if the Pistons' interior line can really match the Knicks, they don't have a chance to win. Because their outside line is just too weak.
The Knicks have three outside All-Star caliber players. Billups and Wade are two, and the remaining one is Battier and Prince, who have not yet participated in the All-Star Game.
In addition, the Knicks are also equipped with pitcher Salmons and veteran Cassel.
If you want the New York Knicks to lose to the Detroit Pistons, there is only one possibility, and that is Lamar suddenly injured!
But that possibility is now almost impossible, as Lamar averaged just 20 minutes per game in the final dozen games of the regular season in preparation for the playoffs.
"Huh!"
Lamarga hit a free throw to score his ninth point of the game.
When it was the Detroit Pistons' turn to attack, Rasheed Wallace suddenly made an outside shot and hit a difficult three-pointer on the head of Lamar, who was caught off guard, to tie the score again. (Due to rotation, Chris Anderson replaced Mourning, and the defense also replaced Al Jefferson who came on Kenyon Martin)
Seeing Rasheed Wallace win against Lamar, the fans all started to glue to the stadium because whenever it was like this, Lamar would definitely fight back in the toughest way.
But when it was the Knicks' turn to attack, Lamar surprisingly didn't have the slightest idea of getting back on the court, but passed the basketball to Prince.
Prince received the pass in the most comfortable position, and the result was self-evident, hitting a three-point shot from the outside!
"Well done!" Willis Reed on the commentary bench, as a famous team player for the Knicks, swung his fist hard.
Although Willis Reed is a basketball celebrity born in the New York Knicks, he always maintains a trace of sanity when making commentary, unlike Bill Wharton, who always has an obvious sense when commenting.
Therefore, Willis Reid has to see some things on the court more thoroughly than Bill Wharton: "This is the reason why Lamar has beaten many superstars to become the first person in the league! Every time a game can't be opened, a guy like Kobe Bryant thinks of himself first, and Lamar will still believe in his teammates and do his best to help his teammates create opportunities." ”
Bill Wharton didn't seem very convinced by Willis Reed's words. The old guy pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, "I'm not looking for a team player!" I'd rather see Lamar score than Prince. ”
In the next game, the New York Knicks showed off their terrifying scoring prowess.
First, Wade and Prince broke through the basket in a row to cause inside kills, then Anderson rushed to grab the rebound in the front court and then scored a second offensive dunk, and then Cassel, who came off the bench, made a sudden cold arrow on the outside from time to time.
With the Knicks, a group of bench bandits, the game changed dramatically in the second quarter.
At halftime, the New York Knicks were 17 points ahead of the Detroit Pistons.
Although the Pistons twin towers of Kenyon Martin and Rasheed Wallace scored 29 points in the first half, they still couldn't organize the Pistons to the abyss.
In fact, from the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks' strategy of defending Kenyon Martin and Roaring Tianzun took a 180-degree turn under the instructions of Coach K.
The Knicks' defenders can make the Pistons' interior players shoot and break through, but they just can't connect them to the perimeter.
Coach K's defensive tactics were very effective, cutting off the Pistons' inside and outside connections, making the game a matchup between the Pistons and the Knicks in the end.
In this way, the physical strength of the three major interior lines of the piston is a bit large. So when the players on both sides came off the pitch at half-time, the fans could clearly see that Kenyon Martin and Rasheed Wallace were as tired as dogs.
After the Knicks returned to the locker room, all the players cheered again. They were all cheering for this low-hanging victory.
Coach K didn't make a big deal of the scenery, but sat quietly next to him and watched everyone's tricks.
After a while of jumbling, Coach K finally couldn't stand it anymore and dragged the players to talk about the tactics of the second half.
It didn't take long for the staff to come and greet the players.
After the game restarted, the Knicks were still facing off against the main lineup at the beginning of the game.
And the Pistons also put on a somewhat alternative lineup.
Center Al Jefferson, power forward Rademanovic, small forward Richard Hamilton, shooting guard Brandon Walker, point guard Daniels. 2k reading web
