In the finals G1, the Pistons narrowly won, but this did not make the outside world more optimistic about the Pistons winning the championship......

At the moment, the Trail Blazers are still the team with a better chance of winning the championship.

The reason is very simple, this game is the home court of the Pistons, although the referee did not give any home whistle, but the fans on the scene will definitely have a certain impact on the Trail Blazers players.

The second was Zhang Weiping's operation error in those minutes......

In the eyes of the outside world, if these influences are removed, the Trail Blazers may be slightly better than the Pistons.

……

On June 6, the finals G2 started.

Both sides are missing one starter, so there is no one who is damaged, and they are basically on the same running line.

On the Trail Blazers' side, Zhang Weiping suffered the loss of the last game, but this time he didn't dare to use Starhouse, and it is estimated that in the future finals schedule, Starhouse will be completely abandoned.

He used Kirilenko to take the starting small forward position......

Richard's side continues to use Prince as the starter, since Prince has been released before, there is no need to hide Prince now, it is better to let Prince play on the court.

may also be the first victory, so that the Pistons will play with confidence, tonight the Pistons' shooting rate is quite good.

Prince, in particular, tonight's three-point shooting percentage is simply staggering.

He is a whopping 206 centimeters tall, but he is currently playing in the quarterback position......

With good running ability, high shooting points, and accurate three-point shooting, Mike Reed, who is opposite him, is completely helpless.

Zhang Weiping did not say that he did not seek a solution, and used Kirilenko on the field to replace Prince.

But as soon as he changed the defense, Gerrard's side relied on his physical advantage to play Reid in various singles.

By the end of G2 of the finals, the Pistons had won again, but it was still a narrow victory, and they only won by three points in the end.

If it weren't for Prince's important role in this game, I'm afraid the Pistons could have lost on their home court.

Richard also didn't expect that after Prince appeared on the stage, he would be even better than Ragabel.

Probably also because Artest was not present......

On the night, Prince scored 17 points, including four three-pointers.

You must know that the scores of both sides are not very high, and the score of 17 points is quite a lot.

Even Yao Ming only scored 22 points tonight.

Richard sighed, it seemed that gold would glow no matter what, and this was not true at all.

Prince must not be able to hide the snow......

It is estimated that when the time comes to expand the draft, the Pistons are likely to put them on the protected list.

After all, Prince is only a rookie this year, and in terms of development value, it is quite ......

Even in Richard's view, if Pistons management is not stupid, if not Ragabel is put on the protection list, Prince will have to be put on the protection list......

Because Prince looks like he has a lot of potential through these two games.

……

Narrowly won two games in a row, and the Pistons also got a considerable advantage, leading the Trail Blazers with a score of 2:0, and then as long as they can win one more sentence, they can get the match point.

With a 3:0 score in hand, it is obvious that the victory is basically in hand.

……

But in the next G3, the Trail Blazers showed amazing resilience, and when they were two sentences behind, they pulled back a city on their home court.

Reed, who was outside the game, beat the Pistons in the last 1.7 seconds, and the Pistons lost by a narrow margin of 93:94.

It's a pity, but Richard also knows that this is the cruelty of the NBA Finals.

After the Trailblazers won a game, they could be regarded as stabilizing the morale of the army, and G4 made persistent efforts.

In this G4, the Pistons' outside players played extremely badly, mainly because they felt too cold, and even Nash, who had a super stable shooting rate, was also out of order, and his three-point shot was 0 of 5.

It's not that there is no suitable opportunity to shoot, but if you find the right opportunity, you just can't hit it, and no one can make sense.

If it weren't for Prince's continued excellent outside firepower, I'm afraid the Pistons would face a big defeat tonight!

In the end, in the finals G4, the Trail Blazers won the Pistons at home by 7 points.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides were tied again, the big score was a 2:2 draw, and the two sides returned to the same running line again.

The banned Artest and Ragabel also made a comeback.

The next finals G5, that is definitely the top priority, winning this is basically equivalent to saying that there is a seventy percent chance of winning the championship!

……

At this much-anticipated point in time, the Trail Blazers were quite unfortunate to have an injury.

If it's just the injury of the bench players, then in the current finals, it doesn't hurt.

The point is that Xiao Ao is injured......

And the injury is quite serious, and it is difficult to play in the next fixtures, depending on the situation.

The injury occurred in the third quarter of the G5 game of the finals, when Xiao Ao and Clark competed for rebounds, but when they fell, they stepped on Clark's foot and sprained their ankle.

Richard could only sigh secretly, if he wanted to say that he was happy, he would definitely not be very happy......

The opponent is the Trail Blazers, not other teams, and the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and Richard definitely doesn't want the Trail Blazers to lose to the Pistons because of injuries.

However, he also knows very well that the Trailblazers are over.

Richard, a trailblazer in the past two years, can't figure out why, his luck has been terrible.

Since he left the Trail Blazers, the Trail Blazers have always had injuries in the playoffs in the past two years, and the injuries are still the two cores of Auburn.

Last season, the Trail Blazers were eliminated by the Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals due to Big Ben's injury......

This season, they have already reached the finals, but Xiao Ao was injured again.

The Twin Towers Auburn combination on the inside line can definitely be said to be the signature of the Trailblazers, and any of their tactics revolve around the Twin Towers.

Once one of the Twin Towers is injured, the strength of the Pioneer will be lost by at least one-third, not to mention half.

Originally, in this G5, the Trailblazers had already played some advantages, and as long as they continued to maintain it, they could win the battle of Tianwang Mountain.

But with Xiao Ao's injury, their situation took a sharp turn for the worse and became precarious.

Zhang Weiping replaced Kirilenko on his side, letting Big Ben top the center and Kirilenko top the big forward, but the effect is definitely far less than the partner of the Oben combination.

……

In this way, the Pistons easily killed the Trailblazers in the battle of Tianwang Mountain and took the lead with a score of 3:2.

Until the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Richard was still in a daze.

He feels that this championship will probably come more easily than he thought......

Xiao Ao's injury is definitely not ten days and half a month to heal, I'm afraid it will take at least a month or two to recuperate.

By the time he came back, the daylily was cold, and the Pistons had already lifted the championship trophy.

I don't know if the Trail Blazers are too unlucky, or Richard's luck is too good, anyway, Xiao Ao is injured, which almost crushes the Trail Blazers' hopes of winning the championship.

Richard frowned, and even had the idea of helping a group of Xiao Ao in his heart......

However, this thought was only fleeting, and if Richard really did this, it would definitely be a brain-dead home.

If Xiao Ao's exclusive mid-level injury scroll was not used before, then the current situation is a matter of two words......

However, Xiao Ao's exclusive injury scroll had already been used up a long time ago, and it was impossible for Richard to use the remaining intermediate injury scroll to treat Xiao Ao......

It's not fair to yourself, to the Pistons, to the Pistons players, to the fans, and to everybody anyway.

Players are injured and that's their fate......

……

Early the next morning, the Trail Blazers officially announced Xiao Ao's injury, and he needed to recuperate for a month.

This is undoubtedly bad news for Trail Blazers fans.

Originally, if you look at the situation, although the Trail Blazers do not have a 100% probability of winning the championship, at least it seems that the probability is greater than that of the Pistons, and there is a 55% chance of winning the championship.

But now with Xiao Ao's injury, everything is over......

……

In Zhang Weiping's office, Big Ben, Artest, bearded Davis and others all sat with serious faces, holding a meeting to discuss what to do next.

As soon as Xiao Ao was injured, they must have known that the chances of winning the championship were reduced to a very small level.

Without Xiao Ao's containment, relying only on a big book, it is difficult to be the opponent of Yao Ke's combination.

"Zhang, if this is not the case, let's go and beg the coach to help Jemaine treat his injury!"

"You should all know very well that the coach definitely has such ability, and if we ask him, he will definitely agree!" Artest was dull for a long time, thinking of an idea that everyone was thinking about, but no one was saying.

Zhang Weiping is the head coach of the Trail Blazers at the moment, but Artest did not call him coach, but called him Zhang, but called Richard as coach.

For this, Zhang Weiping is almost used to it and doesn't care.

Faced with Artest's bad idea, everyone shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

"Ron, your bad idea couldn't be worse." The big urn said angrily.

"I know that the coach has the ability to do that, and I know that if we open our mouths, he will help us!"

"But don't we have any face? This will definitely make it very difficult for the coach! ”

"Besides, how many times have you been fighting with people on the court before, there is no need to go too far with the Pistons."

Big Ben is the captain of the team, he is the backbone of this team, and at this moment he began to count Artest.

Artest was silent, if others counted him, he would probably burst into flames, but this was Big Ben, the big brother of their West Lafayette group.
