With the Rockets comfortably knocking out their opponents 4-0, they were able to get a few days off. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The day after the end of the Western Conference Finals, Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals also kicked off, and the Pistons beat the Heat at home to tie the score at 2-2.

In Game 5 of Miami, Heat big man Wade scored only 15 points and left the game with an injury. But starting power forward 2nd year Udoni. Haslem unexpectedly broke out, cutting 14+13 to overwhelm the Pistons' interior three towers to help the team win the opponent by 12 points.

In Game 6 on June 4, many experts predicted that the Heat were likely to win the opponent in one go, but they did not expect the ball to turn into a one-sided slaughter. In Wade's absence, the Heat didn't put up much resistance, and everyone except O'Neal had limited attacking power. As a result, in the face of the Pistons' steel defense, the Heat scored only 45 points in the first three quarters, and finally lost by 25 points.

On June 6, Wade forced a comeback in the seven-tie battle at the American Airlines Center Arena, but unfortunately he was not in good condition with an injury, and his shooting was repeatedly ironed. At halftime, the two sides were tied at 45-40, and the Pistons temporarily took the lead.

At this time, all the members of the Rockets gathered at Yao Ming's house to watch the game. Yao's mother, Fang Fengdi, also personally cooked, stir-fried, served tea and poured water, and was very embarrassed to fly away.

(Small allusion: Since American buildings are all open kitchens, cooking Chinese food stir-fry is too smoky, and Yao Ming is not used to eating Western food.) Fang Fengdi deliberately pressed the stove in the laundry room, connected the gas pipe, and used it for frying. The strong maternal love can be seen. Great basketball superstars can't do without the support of their loved ones, salute Yao's mother)

"Auntie, you're welcome, just let me come by myself." Yuan Fei and Dazhi took the kettle and poured hot water for the players. This group of American young men is very arrogant and does not pay much attention to generational etiquette, but they have to pay attention to these as Chinese.

"Wade is still playing with an injury today, not in shape." Billups was engrossed in the game: "If you continue to play like this, you will probably have to meet the Pistons in the Finals." ”

"I still hope the Heat win, otherwise it's a pity." Yao Ming said: "Let's see how the second half goes." "He's really hungry to fight O'Neal, especially in the finals.

What followed was a sudden change, with Wade making only 2 of 8 shots in the first half, scoring 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting in the first quarter. The Heat were able to take a two-point lead into the final quarter.

"I also think it's still a little bit stronger than the Heat." Jefferson said: "If it weren't for Wade's injury, there shouldn't be much suspense in this game. ”

"There's an old saying in sports – luck is part of strength. So we don't have to make excuses when we hurt Tracy, and the Heat don't have any excuses. "Far Flying: "No matter what, we're going to go all out to fight for the championship. ”

In the final 1 minute and 40 seconds of the game, the Heat still led by 1 point, but unfortunately Wade hit a series of irons in the last minute and buried the game at a critical moment. And the Pistons blossomed in more points, Bodi Loga, Rashid, Hamilton and Prince each played key plays, and finally succeeded in a difficult comeback.

The unwilling Wade finally couldn't help but shed tears after the game, he insisted on playing with injuries and fought until the last moment, but unfortunately failed to become a hero to save the team. The Pistons, on the other hand, are celebrating the victory, winning the Eastern Conference for the second year in a row and are on track to reclaim the championship they missed last year from the Rockets. They are well aware that the Rockets without McGrady have dropped a notch.

"We're in trouble now, the Pistons are our old enemies, last year's 3-1 lead was reversed by us, and this year we are determined to find us in trouble." Reed grimaced.

"It's really a headache." Jefferson also frowned: "Bodiloga's height advantage makes it difficult for us to deal with it, and now that Gerrard is gone, Tracy is injured again, and I may need to keep an eye on him." ”

"There's also a lot of trouble on the inside." Purzbilla, who is not very talkative, also spoke: "Oku was a great contributor to last year's finals, especially against Rashid. Wallace's defense was outstanding. I'm probably going to be the main substitute on the inside this year, and I'm not confident that I can do what he does. ”

Others also talked about it.

"Let me sum it up." As soon as Yuan Fei spoke, everyone else quieted down, "The advantages of the Pistons: first, a tall point guard like Bodi Loga makes us have to be misplaced to defend; The second is that the Pistons inside three towers that make up for McDyce are very strong, so Yao's inside advantage may not be as big as last year. ”

"yes, that's worrying." Billups said with a bitter face.

"But we also have a lot of strengths: the first point is the age advantage, our five starters, Chauncey 28, Yao 24, Richard 24, Michael 25, Chris 20, almost all of them are players in the growth period, everyone is constantly improving, better than last season. The Pistons only have Hamilton 26, Prince 24 is considered to be in the growth period, two Wallaces are 30, and Bodi Loga is 32, and it has reached a decline period. Whether he can maintain the same high level as last season is hard to say. We don't necessarily lose to them. ”

"That's right, you see I'm much stronger than last year." Bosh rolled down his sleeves, revealing his strong biceps.

"The second point is that the Pistons' bench is weaker. Although the introduction of McDyce is indeed good, Milicic has not grown at all and has not received much playing time. And Campbell is 36 years old, and his strength is declining day by day. Compared to last season, Colis. Williams is gone, and they are short on the flanks. Mike. James is also gone, and they are left with only Lynch in the backcourt. Hunter is an available substitute. Yuanfei continued.

"So, the Pistons are two and a half benches right now?" Bosh said: "One and a half inside, McDyce plus Campbell Sr., one outside, Hunter." ”

"That's right, this team is playing in an eight-man rotation right now, with a strong starting five, but very limited depth. Even if we are a little weaker in the starters, we can beat them with a lot of substitutes! However, Yuan Fei immediately tightened the strings for everyone again: "Of course, these are all on paper, and the actual effect depends on the game." ”

"And what about the third advantage?" Fang Fengdi suddenly interjected.

"Auntie? What do you think? The crowd wondered.

"You've all been off for a couple of days, and they've just played in the Eastern Conference Finals. Isn't that just a matter of leisure? Even my old aunt can see it. Fang Fengdi said with a smile.

"That's right, it seems that our rockets will win!" The crowd laughed too. (To be continued.) )
