In the third quarter, the Pistons scored consecutive points with Big Ben's fierce rebounds and Rashid's stable singles, and once narrowed the gap to 4 points. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 But Billups and Yao Ming stabilized the situation after their return, and Billups' calm command helped the Rockets open up the deficit again.

In the second half, under Billups' calm scheduling, the Rockets focused on the interior. Yao Ming continuously caused the Pistons to foul inside and hit free throws, relying on his excellent play, the Rockets maintained the lead. Although Big Ben grabbed 10 rebounds in a single quarter, he couldn't stop Yao Ming from wreaking havoc on the inside. Da Yao cut 12+4 in a single quarter. The Rockets ended the third quarter with a 74-64 lead.

"Before the game, I predicted that the young Rockets would face a desperate situation of falling behind 1-3 and could lose mentally unbalanced and suffer a heavy defeat. As it turns out I guessed wrong, the Rockets are a tough team. TNT's on-site commentator Rivers said, "Now the pressure is on the Pistons." ”

"Wisdom Star" Larry. Brown didn't let down behind, he adjusted his lineup and deployed accordingly. As soon as the final quarter came up, the Pistons were replaced by Hunter and Williams. Brown will Corlis. Williams moved to the power forward position, and he singled Bosh to score points.

Despite Williams' height of only 6'7 (about 201cm), he weighs 245 pounds (about 111 kg), which is heavier than both Wallaces. He fought hard, and Bosh really struggled to carry it.

"Williams deserves to be the best sixth man 2 years ago, and he does still have some strength." Tang Shuai couldn't help but praise his opponent.

"But he's only within 10 feet of the basket to be ranged, and according to statistics, he shoots less than 1/4 of his shots 10 feet from the basket, shoots about 36 percent from the field, and doesn't shoot three-pointers at all." Yuanfei immediately called up the data and fed back to the coach in time.

"You just have to resist and shoot against this kind of player. Gerald, you go guard against him! Tang Shuai immediately made corresponding arrangements.

Hunter made a beautiful steal and went straight to the basket to score points. The 76:70 margin has narrowed.

Yao Mingqiang made a foul on Big Ben, and made two free throws and two hits. Big Ben has already committed the fourth offense, which is somewhat dangerous.

Williams singled Gerrard and missed the shot on a strong start. But Big Ben grabbed the ball before Yao Ming and made up for 78:72!

"Ben. Wallace was in great form today, grabbing eight rebounds from the frontcourt. Caused a lot of trouble for the rocket. Barkley excitedly commented: "This short man is very strong inside rebounding, very much like I was back then. ”

"If he were any shorter, he would be the shortest rebounding champion in NBA history." Kenny. Smith also mocked his old partner mercilessly. Barkley is 198cm tall and was elected the rebounding king with an average of 14.6 rebounds per game in the 1987 season, which is indeed shorter than Big Ben.

While the two were talking and laughing, the ownership of the ball was changed again. Jefferson was fouled by Bodiloga on a pass, and he drove straight to the basket to give the Pistons a four-point deficit at 78:74.

The rocket immediately returned fire. This time, it was Maddy's signature skill, hitting 81-74 three-pointers.

Williams singled Gerrard, forced a few squeezes but was resisted by the latter lowering his center of gravity. Billups quietly appeared on the side of Williams' field of vision, and suddenly reached out to steal. Hunter couldn't remind him, Chauncey broke the ball and successfully played a quick offensive and defensive transition, and scored an easy layup 83:74.

Seeing that Williams' singles were also ineffective, and the score difference was going to double digits again, Old Brown hurriedly changed back to the main lineup. But this adjustment seems to have come a little late, there is only a little more than half a quarter left in the game, and the Pistons are not a strong offensive team, and it is quite difficult to chase points, and the players have begun to be impatient at this point. It's no wonder that the players are eager to celebrate the championship with a medal ceremony on their home turf. If you lose this game, even if you win, you have to go to Texas to present the award, and you will feel more awkward.

If you play impatiently, you will make low-level mistakes, and the tactical discipline that the Pistons have always strictly enforced is gone, but there are a lot of unnecessary packs and inexplicable defenses. They frantically pinched the ball carrier, hoping to force the Rockets to make turnovers. This has given the solid Maddy and Billups more opportunities to play, and the two of them are good passers, who have a good sense of the big picture and are quick to get caught in the ball, allowing the Pistons to take care of one or the other.

After a few rounds, the score has become 90:78. The Pistons still forced Maddy, who was holding the ball, and Maddy passed a big open space for Reed to shoot. Reed adjusted his three-point shot and missed. But Rashid, who defended Oku, mentioned the free throw line position to wrap up Maddie, and Oku, who was unmarked under the basket, easily made a basket, and the margin widened to 14 points.

Larry. Brown sighed and replaced the main force. With less than 2 minutes left in the game, there was no hope of a comeback. The Pistons' dream of receiving a championship award ceremony at the Palace of Auburn Hills was shattered.

The moment the final bell rang, Maddie viciously smashed the ball to the floor, and the ball bounced high. Yao Ming also roared loudly and rarely, venting his anger. Billups was calm, standing up from the bench and hugging his teammates. And the less calm, such as Gerald. Wallace, tears welling down his eyes.

From the favored side before the Finals to the loser in public opinion, the Rockets have pushed themselves to a dead end. In this game, the whole world is waiting for Detroit to usher in the third championship in team history, and the Rockets seem to have become the background of Detroiters. The players had a lot of off-pitch pressure on the ball, they were nervous, they were frizzy, they had other negative emotions. But under the calm scheduling of the team's brain Billups, everyone found a normal heart, played Houston basketball, and finally defeated the strong opponent away to make the score 2-3.

Yuan Fei looked at the bright scoreboard, looked at the score of 98:83, and breathed a sigh of relief as if he had just woken up from a dream.

In the previous life, the Los Angeles Lakers lost three games in a row on the road, and finally the Pistons won 4:1 to win the cup at home. And from this moment on, the fate of the F4 Lakers does not belong to the Rockets. The Rockets officially rewrote the history of the Finals and went down a different path from the F4 Lakers. Yuanfei can finally believe that his basketball concept is not wrong, as long as he insists on operating and managing according to the rules of basketball and arranging tactics, he will definitely win the championship. The celebration at the Auburn Hills Palace Arena, sorry to make you soaked. Toyota Center, we're back.

And at the moment in the dressing room of the visiting team, Tomjanovic is already making a post-match summary.

"I'm so proud of you, boys."

"The media should start to regret that they have once again underestimated the hearts of the Rockets championships."

"Toyota Center, we're back!"
