The space city of Houston and the Motor City of Detroit are similar, the former is the fourth largest city in the United States, and the latter is the largest city near the long border between the United States and Canada. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Compared with New York, the largest city in the United States, and Los Angeles, which is home to Hollywood, the level of the entertainment media industry lags behind due to the difference in industrial structure.

Although the market is not a first-line and the attraction to superstars is not a first-line line, both teams have created their own glory. In 1989 and 1990, the Pistons won back-to-back championships, and five years later, the Rockets also completed two consecutive championships. That is to say, the finals have not yet begun, and one team is destined to lift the championship trophy for the third time.

There is no feud between the two teams, they have only played each other briefly in the regular season, and it can even be said that the level of understanding of each other is not very high. From the perspective of style, the Rockets are on the fast-paced side, with strong steals and fast offensive capabilities driven by the two star guards, and positional battles mainly rely on blocking and Yao Mai's singles. The Pistons, on the other hand, are an out-and-out defensive team, relying on solid hand-to-hand combat to crush opponents, and offense with lots of screens, air cuts, and mid-range jumpers.

"We won the first game in the regular season, largely because of Yao's outburst." Assistant Coach Smith analyzed: "But at that time, the Pistons had not brought in Rashid. Wallace, now they have a solid interior defender, and the interior is much better than it was then. ”

"And in the second game, we took a break from Maddie and lost by 18 points, which doesn't have much reference value." Tang Shuai said.

"So there's a problem," Yuan Fei said, "We don't know the Pistons at all, and we haven't played against their full lineup." Last season's Pistons were completely different from what they are now. ”

"As I said earlier, one thing Yao needs to pay attention to is probably that the pistons' interior line is stronger." Olajuwon is not in the squad, his presence has not weakened, and he is now basically playing the role of Yao Ming's mentor. "Despite the fact that the two Wallaces are not of great stature, they have a strong confrontation of strength. And they also have two 210cm and more long men on the bench, Campbell and Milicic, and the Pistons' interior line should not be underestimated. Of course, Wallace can only defend against your lower game, and use the footsteps I teach you to hit them. ”

"For height, we still have an advantage on the inside, and the headache is the opponent's outside players. Defending Hamilton and Bodi Loga is a tough task for Chauncey and Toney. Tang Shuai said: "The Pistons' starting five tigers are all between 2 meters and 2.1 meters, taking into account height, speed and flexibility. Even their center Ben is a very fast and defensive type, so our big man pitcher may not be able to use O'Neal's set again, and Big Ben pulls out the defense and retracts very quickly, which can still cause serious interference to our ball carriers. ”

"So am I going to start again? How about having Tracy play point guard? "Billups was so windy that he wanted to give up his position right away.

"No, no, you're our All-Star point guard, let's take a look and figure out how your opponent can go." Lao Tang hurriedly refused: "The starters are still Yao, Memet, Heaton, Tracy and Chauncey. Of course, the alignment still needs to be adjusted......"

The Rockets players found their opponents according to Tang Shuai's arrangement on the court, of course, it looks like a mismatch in terms of height. Tang Shuai and Yuanfei began to comment.

Yao Ming, who is 226cm, is facing Ben, which is less than 205cm. Wallace. "It's good that Big Ben doesn't like Rashid. Wallace is as good as he is at long-range shooting, and his range is limited to the basket. Yao only needs to sit in the restricted area. ”

The 211cm Oku faced the 208cm Rashid. Wallace. "Rashid has a very comprehensive technique, he can shoot inside and outside, and he is quite difficult to deal with. He has a short temper and often receives technical fouls to the point where he is nicknamed 'Roaring Tianzun' in the media. However, he has been very honest since he arrived at the Pistons, and I don't know if he can take advantage of his character weaknesses. ”

The 208cm Turkoglu faced the 206cm Prince. This young man has very long arms, with an arm span of 218cm (225cm on the Internet, which should be an exaggeration). However, he is more average on the offensive end, but the three-point is more threatening. Letting Turkoglu defend himself is not a big problem to simply run without the ball and catch the ball. ”

The 203cm Maddie faced the 205cm Bodi Loga. "This mysterious European is really difficult to deal with, I have watched a lot of footage of his Barcelona games, and I can say that he has not played 80% in the NBA! He may be the real trump card of the Pistons. ”

The 191cm Billups faced the 201cm Hamilton. "The really scary alignment, Chauncey probably won't be able to interfere with Hamilton's dry-pull mid-range jumper. And Hamilton just killed the Pacers like this a few days ago. If there are real difficulties, we may need to change formations. ”

The referee stands in the middle of the field, ready to throw the ball. It's game on!

Yao Ming jumped the ball comfortably over Big Ben and hit the ball in the direction of Billups, but Bodiloga jumped high to stop the ball. Pistons get the ball!

"Is the first ball a height crush?" Billups didn't laugh angrily, he was not discouraged and ran after Hamilton, who was a threat without the ball.

Dejan. Bodi Loga's dribbling is very distinctive, one high and one low, the rhythm is abnormally poor, and only a big tall guard like him can control such a high and low rhythm that makes the opponent elusive (Sun Jun, a famous small forward in China and a former CBA scoring champion, also has similar characteristics, he moves slowly but is good at playing with poor time and rhythm). He slowly dribbled the ball to the right side of the court, while Hamilton and Prince had pulled away to the left and the top of the arc respectively to catch the ball and shoot.

Maddie was preoccupied with his opponent, and he trusted Billups and Turkoglou to keep an eye on the two pitchers on the weak side, and he didn't need to be distracted by that.

Bodi Loga activated, he changed hands under his crotch and took two big strides to break through, but Maddie clung to it tightly and didn't lose his position. "This guy is 31 years old after all, although the steps are big, but not very fast, I can keep up!"

Bodiloga suddenly jumped up and down with a big stride and pushed left with the ball in his right hand. Maddie reached out to break it, but because her opponent's action was too unconventional, she was completely unprepared mentally so she took a step slowly.

"This European is so bold that he should make such a dangerous move that can easily be broken. But the ball must have been given to Prince at the top of the arc, and Turkoglu will definitely be able to prevent this ball! Maddie thought and turned her head to look. Prince and Turkoglou were standing near the top of the arc, neither of them having the ball in their hands. What about balls? Could it be that it was spread so big that it was lost to the audience?

Maddie, who was confused for a moment, turned his head to look, and the ball went in, and the scoreboard showed that the Pistons had scored 3:0 first.
