Of course, the difficulty of this hidden mission is no lower than that of the previous "God of Basketball".

The Pistons' defense was on full display in the first quarter.

To average 30+ points per game in this kind of historic defense, if you really want to say it, I'm afraid only that man can do it.

The most authentic negative textbook is Kobe.

Last year's Kobe Bryant averaged 21 points per game against the Pistons team, shooting less than 36 percent from the field.

This shows the difficulty of this task.

But people always have dreams, and the more difficult it is, the more motivated Sun Hao is.

At this moment, the situation on the field changed a lot.

Jerry I, who was also Jordan's successor, Stackhouse, was on fire on the offensive end.

Under his leadership, the Pistons tied the score two minutes later in the first quarter and pulled the score away again at the beginning of the second quarter!

Compared to other awards, this year's Sixth Person of the Year is the most deserved!

None of those who can become "Jordan's successors" are poor, but they are lacking in some aspects.

What Stackhouse lacks isn't scoring ability, it's consistency.

So the sixth man is his best destination, and it is in history and still is.

It just so happened that his hands were hot tonight.

This is also the reason why Sun Hao thinks this Pistons team is stronger than in history.

For the Pistons, who are weak in defense and offense and obviously lack some scoring talent, the role of Stackhouse is no less than that of the starting five.

The main players of the two sides have rotated back one after another, and the only one who hasn't been replaced by Phil Jackson is Christie, who seems to have made arrangements.

The Lakers were already trailing the Pistons by 8 points at 25-33.

The mood of the fans at the scene has dropped significantly compared to the opening time.

The Pistons' defense and tenacity are on par with any Spurs they've faced before.

It reminds them of last year's experience.

The Lakers have gotten stronger, but so have the Pistons!

This matchup is not destined to end as easily as they thought at first.

Even now they are worried that the team will lose in the opening game, because after Sun Hao and O'Neal are restricted, the Lakers will have no other consistent scoring points!

This is similar to last year's finals, last year, Ma Long lacked physical fitness after a high-intensity confrontation, and shot iron in various vacant positions, so angry that fans scolded: You weren't like this when you were in Utah!

Bryant's inability to pass the ball is partly related to the inability of his teammates to provide fire support.

It's obviously not realistic to expect Horry to go on a big kill with the Western Conference semifinals, or can they expect Finley?

After all, in terms of salary, Finley's salary is the second highest salary in the team, which is higher than Sun Hao's.

The on-site photographer seems to think the same way, giving Finley a close-up shot after the main force returns.

Finley was a little stunned when he saw himself on the big LED screen, and the coach didn't seem to have arranged any special tactics for him?

"Herding cow baby" was stunned at this moment.

However, he didn't think much about it, he was the same as a soldier to obey orders as his duty, and it was all subject to the coach's arrangement.

The substitution came up with the first attack on the Lakers' possession.

At this time, the interesting scene on the field is that the photographer on the scene is still giving Finley a shot!

They were determined that Finley would behave!

This is also completely reasonable, not only in terms of salary, but also in ability, and Finley is also second only to Sun Hao and O'Neal on the Lakers.

Now that the two cores of the team are limited by the opponent's defensive focus and cannot play their full strength, then the fans can naturally look forward to Finley as the third master!

And compared to the other two giants of F4 last year, Finley is still young and still at the top.

Everything seems so reasonable.

Including the head coach of the Pistons, Brown, couldn't help but look up at the big screen at this time.

"Michael! Michael! ”

When he lowered his head again, he shouted from the sidelines.

It's not necessarily Jordan who is called Michael, but it could also be Finley.

At this time, Finley was the only one on the court called Michael, and Brown was obviously reminding his teammates of Finley's defense.

At this particular juncture, Finley encountered one of the most wonderful misunderstandings of his career.

At this time, no one noticed that Sun Hao began to run without the ball after giving the ball to Christie.

His mind was clear.

Prince is the kind of player who likes to take the initiative to force you to stop the ball by taking the initiative to play the body, and then use the point where he won't be easily shaken to prevent you from breaking through.

The best way to break through his defence is to reduce physical contact, or to switch from possession to off-ball.

Christie showed his playmaking talent and delivered the ball as soon as Sun Hao came out on cover.

And the quality of the blocking and dismantling given by Malone is also high, which jams Prince.

Sun Hao catches the ball with a mid-range shot.

Although he still uses more three-point shooting, his mid-range has also reached the gold level after two seasons of use.

After this shot, the silkiness of the ball was only slightly worse than the three-point line.

That little bit doesn't matter.

"Huh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

The first attack after the main force came back, Sun Hao's mid-range shot hit!

Well, after Finley unexpectedly pinned down the Pistons' defense, Sun Hao scored a goal with an off-ball run.

It was also probably the easiest goal the Lakers have scored since the opening game.

27 to 33!

The Lakers narrowed the deficit to six points.

Anthony also took a shot off the ball.

"Phew!"

Still not, O'Neal protected the defensive rebound.

Anthony was uncomfortable at the start of tonight by Ariza and still hasn't regained his form.

This is the only instability factor in the pre-game analysis of the Pistons, their offensive core is only in their second year, and their talent is overflowing, but the stability needs to be improved.

However, their defense is really good.

Johnson was proud of his defensive counter-attack, but the Pistons were all the basics, and the Lakers' fast break was delayed.

They can only push forward to the front court and continue to play positions.

At this point, it's not surprising to see the Pistons always score 70 or 80 points against their opponents.

They and the Suns are really two extremes.

D'Antoni studied the offense to the extreme, and the "7-second attack" and "V-shaped fast attack" were all products of the extreme research.

The Pistons, for their part, have done everything they can to the best of their defense.

To put it in one sentence: it's not impossible for you to score, but I'll have to peel you off first.

Sun Hao, the off-ball run was targeted by the Pistons' change of defense.

The Pistons' rotation isn't the Warriors' infinite rotation, but even Ben, who is the center, isn't slow to move.

In a sense, their misplaced defense is no worse than the Warriors' abilities, but Brown didn't put that into a tactical system.

And they're not just changing guards.

When Sun Hao received the ball and was about to play in a misplaced position, the weak side of the defense immediately came up.

Fans who have watched the finals of the 04~05 season will be very familiar with this scene:

Duncan hit Rashid with his back to the ball, turned and squeezed past Rashid, but when he took a shot, Rashid stepped back and Prince on the weak side had come to the rescue.

He wanted to make a move, but Wallace's long arm interfered in front of him; He wanted to pass the ball and Prince was ready for a steal at any time.

Then Duncan shot and was covered by Wallace.

That's the Pistons' defensive system, the team defensive system.

Because they have stronger individual defensive ability, they are better than the Spurs.

Sun Hao directly chose a low center of gravity to turn around and break through!

He didn't use it when he played Prince one-on-one before, but he used it in front of the Pistons' bag!

The fans at the scene were in a trance for a moment, as if they saw that the No. 95 jersey had become No. 23, and the man's shadow overlapped with Sun Hao's figure!

And Jordan's main opponent in the early part of his entire career is also the Pistons!

Sun Hao turned around beautifully, got past the bag, burst into the inside line, met the big Ben assistant defense, and then gave a through ball to O'Neal under the basket.

No matter how strong Ben's defense is, in the face of Sun Hao and O'Neal's 2-on-1 situation under the basket, he can only choose to defend one.

If he chooses to defend against Sun Hao, he will miss O'Neill.

And the Pistons' help defense couldn't be secondary, and when Wallace pounced inside, O'Neal had already jumped up with the ball.

"Bang!"

The big shark is out of the cage and wreaks havoc on the basket!

O'Neal slammed the ball into the basket with both hands!

After the dunk, O'Neal shook excitedly on the basket.

After playing with the Pistons for so long in the opening, he finally dunked comfortably!

After landing, he immediately asked Sun Hao for a high-five.

In history, the Lakers lost to the Pistons, and O'Neal's average data per game was not bad, and the shooting rate even exceeded 60%!

This looked like O'Neal completely dominated the game, but in fact, the Lakers had a very big problem at that time: how to give the ball to O'Neal!

Don't think that giving the ball to Yao Ming is just a problem for the Chinese men's basketball team in history, when Yao Ming was in Houston, including O'Neal in the Lakers, when he met a strong defensive team, it was a problem.

Because the traditional center's style of play is to stand under the basket.

The Pistons are a defensive powerhouse that knows you're going to have your back to the ball, and all they'll do is disrupt your catch, or even cut the ball around the front.

Otherwise, just look at the data and give the ball to O'Neal, and the Lakers would have crushed the Pistons.

So in comparison, Sun Hao fed the ball just now so comfortably, and O'Neill finally got a good time!

Anthony held back off the ball, Billups and Big Ben made a pick-and-roll, and then burst to Rasheed Wallace in the bottom corner.

This is one of the classic tactics of the Pistons Five Tigers.

However, the Lakers' help defense was also in place, Wallace's shot was interfered with, the basketball smashed out of the frame, and O'Neal stretched out his long arm to grab another defensive rebound.

Compared to defense, the Pistons' offense is obviously a notch behind.

Especially when Anthony's offense feels average, their offense is even a little spicy.

It's also right to think that if the Pistons have this kind of all-time defense and have an equally good offense, then they shouldn't just be championship favorites, but should be on par with the Bulls with 72 wins or the Warriors with 73 wins.

The Lakers played the position again in the frontcourt, Sun Hao continued to have no ball, this time his choice was very similar to the ball at the beginning, and he stepped back three points directly after receiving the ball.

Prince has a lot of experience in dealing with normal offense and defense, but Sun Hao's style of play, which is similar to "Dugu Nine Swords", is always uncertain.

And Sun Hao's ball is a no-ball catch, which is more difficult to predict.

Sun Hao had a beautiful follow-up action after the ball was shot, and the fans felt that the ball was stable after seeing it.

"Huh!"

Facts also proved that their feelings were right, Sun Hao hit his second three-point shot tonight!

That's right, it's the second.

Prince focused on defending Sun Hao's three-pointers, which made it difficult for him to get comfortable shots, and the two three-pointers were both of this kind of ball.

But that's not important!

After Sun Hao hit this three-point, the cheers of the audience at the scene have exploded!

Because after this three-point shot, the Lakers beat the Pistons a 7-0!

32 to 33!

The score difference was chased to only 1 point!

Sun Hao contributed 5 points and 1 assist in this wave of offensive climax!

When the fans at the scene, including the photographer, felt that Finley should stand up, the person who stood up was still Sun Hao!

"Did you notice that Sun's fight tonight was a little different from the past?"

At this moment, the commentator Xikenny Smith couldn't help but speak.

"Is there a difference? He's still undefendable like that! ”

Buckley's daily wave of "Sun Blowing" blows Smith shook his head.

"Yes, Sun played very smart tonight."

It was the guest "Magic" Johnson on the side who took over the conversation.

"Sun gives us the impression that he has excellent three-pointers, including when he played the Spurs and the Mavericks before, he used three points to solve problems, but he has only scored 2 three-pointers so far today, but he has scored 19 points, and more importantly, his performance in this wave of attack climax just now is perfect."

Smith is not Sun Chui, but this remark is very well blown.

"His style of play has become more mature."

Johnson, for his part, summed up Smith's words.

Smith nodded frantically after hearing this, and sure enough, he was worthy of being a magician with a double business.

But right away, he realized that he was a little too naïve.

'It's a way for a player to be great, to know when it's best to make choices on the pitch, like Michael, like me.

Johnson, it turned out to be foreshadowing!

After he finished speaking, he laughed and .jpg himself.

In fact, like Jordan, Johnson is also a braggart person, and of course he has enough bragging capital.

The only difference is that Jordan has a thicker face, and his face is not red and his heart does not beat after blowing.

But Johnson is a little thinner-skinned, and he can't help but laugh to cover himself up every time he blows himself.

"So you mean, Sun has become stronger than before? That's fine! It's a problem, it's that he's supposed to be even more undefensible than he was before! ”

Barkley, after listening carefully to the conversation between the two, also attached a summary.

Smith and Johnson looked at each other, then both smiled and nodded.

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that.

"I think Sun will average 30 points per game in the Finals because you said he is getting stronger again."

And Barkley seemed to feel uncomfortable when the two interrupted his previous words, so he directly turned on the big mouth mode and milked Sun Hao hard.

"Ahh

Sun Hao, who was retreating on the field, sneezed violently.

For a moment, he felt something evil fall on him.
