After the timeout, the Hawks had the ball and switched to a lineup of four big and four.

Sixth-man Jason Terry replaced Boozer, the other four remained the same, and Liu Mang moved from point guard to shooting guard.

There were no substitutions on the Pistons' side, and they fought with their backs against the water, and they still cared about what physical strength they had, and the five starters decided to fight!

Coach Carlisle's control of the Pistons has gotten out of control, and he will be really powerful in the future, but now he is only a sophomore coach, and the rookie best coach has not yet been obtained, and the control of the Pistons has collapsed faster than the original, and it was originally a 1-3 turnaround to the East when the master-apprentice combination of Kidd and Byron Scott was beaten without a fight, so that the players and management lost confidence in him, this time it was even worse, the best coach was robbed, and now their opponent grabbed it, and then it has been swept once last year, This year, it was beaten 3-0 again...... Coach Carlisle had already guessed what the season would end up with.

However, it was good to get together and disperse, the players did not directly express their dissatisfaction, and Coach Carlisle also understood that his time in the Pistons was short, and everyone played happily in the regular season, so there was no need to tear their faces, and the players could play how they wanted.

If you lose, there will be no next game, what's the point of being physically fit or not?

The Eagles served in the middle line, Liu Mang ran at the top of the three-point line, Billups blocked Liu Mang's receiving route, ran with Liu Mang, and tried to prevent Liu Mang from receiving the serve, to Billups's surprise, Liu Mang suddenly turned around and ran into the three-point line!

Billups followed, and Jason Terry came up from the bottom corner to catch the ball and stop at the top arc.

Liu Mang took Billups to swing inside the three-point line, drilled a gap here, inserted it there, and confused Billups.

He has studied the Eagles' style of play for a long time, and Billups has been studying the Eagles' style of play since he basically established that his team is the first in the East and the Hawks are eighth in the East.

And Liu Mang's style of play this time is completely different from the style of play of the Eagles in Billups's impression!

When Liu Mang entered the basket from the right side, Jason Terry began to act on Hamilton's defense, Hamilton defended well, and his thin figure made him very flexible, Raheem came to the top arc for Jason Terry to block Hamilton, Jason Terry broke through from the right side, and rushed into the interior with Clifford Robinson, who switched the defense.

At this time, Liu Mang followed Ratliff from the inside line and ran out of Billups.

The Pistons' change of defense was too good, Hamilton saw that he couldn't catch up with Jason Terry, and he simply trusted Clifford Robinson's change of defense, seeing that Billups was blocked by Ratliffe and couldn't catch up with Liu Mang, Ben Wallace didn't dare to change out to defend Liu Mang because of the height threat of Ratliff's interior line, and Hamilton turned around to chase Liu Mang.

At this time, Liu Mang spared Rahim and Hamilton, and Rahim blocked Hamilton once and then blocked Hamilton again.

"What kind of breakdown is this! Block twice in one position? Hamilton let out a wail inwardly.

Hamilton was blocked twice by Raheem in the same position!

Liu Mang Liu Mang has a gap!

Jason Terry, who just burst to the bottom line, passed back to Liu Mang, and Liu Mang received a three-point shot at a 45-degree angle!

Liu Mang's ability to shoot has decreased, but this kind of catch-and-shoot is no different from before, excellent running, beautiful blocking, perfect catch-and-shoot feeling, Liu Mang catches the ball and hits a three-point hollow shot!

11-13, the margin returned to no score.

"Oh......" Billups looked at the Eagles' completely different style of play from before, and felt a critical blow in his heart!

The so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and the fans on the sidelines can see it at once, and the Pistons players were caught off guard and are still at a loss for the Hawks' tactics.

They didn't expect the Eagles to have offensive tactics to hide, and it was useless!

This is already the fourth game! The Eagles haven't done their best!

This gave the Pistons, who played quite perfectly in the first half of the time, a critical blow! They felt tons of damage!

Fortunately, because the Pistons as a whole were still in a rage, they suppressed this feeling of frustration and hinted that they were still ahead, and Billups did not show any uneasiness, receiving the serve and slowly advancing.

After Billups advanced to the frontcourt, he saw that it was still not Liu Mang who was defending him, but Jason Terry, but he didn't shoot blindly, because Jason Terry posted directly towards him.

Anti-throwing is not anti-outburst! Three points for the main defense Billups!

This is the Hawks' defensive strategy against Billups, and it is also the way the Nets use Richard Jefferson to defend Billups from Liu Mang's impression.

A point guard with a three-point shooting rate of 38 percent, a mid-range shooting rate of 36 percent, and an overall shooting rate of only 40 percent, just prevent him from three points.

Mike Woodson's defensive strategy was still problematic before, because Billups was very prodigal and iron, but the scoring means were very comprehensive, although iron, whether it was three-pointers, mid-range shots or layups, he had such a hand, especially his key shots were very accurate, and he made three whistle-blowing shots in the regular season this year, tied with Mike Bibby of the Kings for the most whistle-blowing players this season.

Liu Mang's strategy is simple and crude.

On the other side, Liu Mang was practicing long-distance running with Hamilton, and Liu Mang felt that if he played a few more games with Hamilton, his endurance would definitely improve a lot.

Billups saw Jason Terry's defensive style, although he didn't know why he suddenly changed his defensive style, but he didn't hesitate, pressing Jason Terry to easily break through from the left side, Jason Terry just stuck to Billups to enter the interior line, and he didn't want to grab the position back.

In the breakthrough, Billups looked at the six-way, at this time Hamilton ran out from under the basket, Ben Wallace blocked Liu Mang, and Clifford Robinson had to block Liu Mang once, because Liu Mang was too fast, and it was difficult to get rid of Liu Mang's pursuit at one block.

But to the surprise of the Pistons, Ratliff ran out with Hamilton! Wave your arms to block the connection between Billups and Hamilton!

At this time, Raheem let go of Clifford Robinson, retracted to the basket, and pinched Ben Wallace with Liu Mang!

Billups immediately passed the ball to Clifford Robinson, who hesitated when he received the ball, he shot 39 percent in the regular season and 33 percent in the playoffs this year, this kind of mid-range shooting is a bit afraid to shoot!

But seeing that no one guards, it is really unreasonable not to shoot, although Ben Wallace under the basket has an advantage in strength, Raheem is as tall as Ben Wallace, plus Liu Mang and the two go around the front together, Clifford Robinson can't pass in! After a moment's hesitation, Clifford Robinson jumps to mid-range shot!

Just as he hesitated, Clifford Robinson lifted the ball up when a large hand reached out from the back of his head and slapped the ball inside to pick up the rebound behind the block just in front of Ben Wallace!

Clifford Robinson completely forgot that there was a Ratliffe behind him!

Ratliff's ability to move, at most in the right half of the middle and close defense, Hamilton ran to the long two-point position, Ratliff very simply took it back, if Hamilton received the ball and threw it in, there is no way, the Hawks' current strategy is to rather let Hamilton shoot alone, not because Hamilton let the Pistons have a chance to shoot, of course, the defense must work hard to defend, consume Hamilton's physical energy, although I don't know when it can be consumed.

And it is necessary to deliberately create gaps on the opponent's two interior lines, one Clifford Robinson, who has a three-point shooting rate of 33 percent this year, but an overall shooting rate of only 39 percent, and Ben Wallace, who basically has no scoring ability, and the Hawks' change and contraction is just to let the Pistons send the ball to the two of them.

Even if Ratliff didn't block Clifford Robinson just now, as long as Clifford Robinson made a mid-range shot that he was not good at, the defense would be considered successful!

The most important point of this defensive method is that the Pistons shoot decisively, and as long as the Pistons have a gap, they will shoot decisively, and this defense will be effective.

Sometimes if you are too resolute, your opponent will take advantage of the opportunity.

The Pistons were in an excited and resolute state today, and they happened to be targeted by Liu Mang.

Of course, if Clifford Robinson can really shoot, it can't be helped, but the defense does its best and the offensive end just keeps the firepower up! Don't worry, just slowly give the pressure from your own body to the other party!

The first goal of Liu Mang's defensive strategy is to let the Pistons pass the ball to Ben Wallace, but it is too difficult, Ben Wallace is really difficult to defend if he gets the ball under the basket, he is standing too deep, and he avoids his weakness, so he squats under the basket.

It's not that there is no team that hasn't considered letting Ben Wallace leave the basket when he is offensive, but Ben Wallace is not stupid, there is no need to be absolutely out of the three-second zone, otherwise he will be targeted by the opponent and explode on the spot.

It was time for the Hawks to attack again, and Jason Terry advanced to the front court after receiving a pass from Raheem.

Billups saw Liu Mang start running around again, although he still didn't understand how the Eagles' tactics were going to play, and he didn't have too many impressions of the Eagles' tactical database in his head running without the ball like Liu Mang, but he knew that he obviously couldn't keep up, so he switched defenses with Hamilton and let Hamilton defend against Liu Mang.

Liu Mang was overjoyed!

Chasing Hamilton from the defensive end alone consumes Hamilton's physical energy, which is not so reliable, so the Hawks who play without the ball are from the original selection of Jason Terry or Prince, Liu Mang decided to play without the ball by himself, just to rely on his performance as Hamilton to run without getting tired, forcing the Pistons to change defenses and let Hamilton defend himself, I thought I would play a few more rounds, but I didn't expect that in the second round, the opponent took the bait!

Liu Mang ran more happily, with all kinds of emergency stops and speed changes, and ran wildly with Hamilton.

For the first time, Hamilton met someone who could run like himself, and he was a little skeptical about life as he ran......

Billups made a decisive and correct decision, but he couldn't stand the other side with a little rascal! Billups' calmness and excellent judgment of defense are also in Liu Mang's calculations!

Jason Terry, on his side, saw that he had been replaced by Billups to Hamilton to defend Liu Mang, and knew that the game plan had entered the second phase, and he did not break through or shoot, so he protected the ball outside the three-point line.

Liu Mang took Hamilton to run raw, and borrowed to block and dismantle, compared to Hamilton around the block and dismantling in order to shoot in the open position, Liu Mang purely ran raw, and when there were 4 seconds left in the offensive time, Liu Mang ran to the top arc and blocked and dismantled Jason Terry!

Hamilton chased Liu Mang and chased after him, and saw Liu Mang go to block Jason Terry! Why did you come here all of a sudden? Isn't it about running to catch the ball and shoot? Hamilton quickly switched to Jason Terry, who burst into the middle range and made a stop-and-go jumper......

It was really sudden, the Pistons didn't react defensively, and just watched Liu Mang and Hamilton race.

But Jason Terry also shot too suddenly, and missed the pull-up jump shot!

At this time, Prince had already retracted the basket, Ratliff carried Ben Wallace, Ratliff couldn't grab the rebound himself, and he didn't give Ben Wallace a rebound, Raheem also went in to pinch Ben Wallace, the Pistons can average more than 5 rebounds per game, everyone else is very good at rebounding, Prince blocked Michael Curry.

Clifford Robinson saw that no one was blocking him, judged where the ball would bounce off the basket, and moved over to jump up to grab the rebound!

Just as Clifford Robinson was trying his best to show off his barely lost bounce to get the rebound, one hand grabbed the ball like a mini basketball, and grabbed the ball the moment he was about to touch the basketball with one hand! And Clifford Robinson saw very clearly that the big hand was about the same size as him, a big hand that only an interior player should have! And the Hawks' three frontcourt players are all under the basket!

Clifford Robinson had just landed and was about to turn to see who it was, when he saw a figure rushing into the basket from behind his right and throwing the ball into the basket with a low hand!

It's that damn guy again!

Clifford Robinson watched Liu Mang hit an easy layup and felt humiliated! A point guard took the rebound on his head!

But, at the same time, Clifford Robinson felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

The way the Hawks grabbed rebounds was too clear, Raheem and Ratliff blocked rebounding king Ben Wallace, Prince blocked Michael Curry who rushed to grab rebounds, and handed over the task of grabbing rebounds with Clifford Robinson to Liu Mang.

This made Clifford Robinson aggrieved and helpless!

Clifford Robinson is not only poor in rebounding now, but also in his entire career, having played 14 seasons so far, and only averaged more than five rebounds per game on four occasions when he was at his peak between the ages of 25 and 28.

What is this concept? Chris Paul, the future NBA's No. 1 point guard, a small man of 1.83 meters, averaged more than 5 rebounds per game in 6 times in the first 14 seasons, and Chris Paul in the 14th season is 34 years old, and his rebounding ability is almost the same as that of Clifford Robinson at the peak.

Clifford Robinson's rebounding ability is not as good as that of a better guard.

Go to the army and strategize, attack the heart first!

Liu Mang's intentions are very clear, strength, his own family is stronger, the other party started so well, it depends on a heart, and this kind of spirit will fight more and more, the tragic experience of the magic team in the original history made Liu Mang very jealous, so it doesn't matter if you don't score first, it doesn't matter if you can prevent it or not, the important thing is to beat the other party's heart! The Pistons are already 0-3 behind, Liu Mang doesn't believe how strong their fighting spirit is, as long as they suppress it and don't give them the opportunity to continue to improve their fighting spirit and morale!

Clifford Robinson watched Liu Mang laugh and return to the defense with his teammates, silently picking up the ball and sending it to Billups.

Billups, for his part, didn't notice Clifford Robinson's grievances and helplessness, because his own rebounding difference was not a day or two, and he was fourth from the bottom in the league in the regular season, and he was used to it.

The Eagles' attack just now, Billups still noticed something, but after this second attack, Billups's head was at a loss, what kind of play is this?

Billups advanced to the frontcourt, and the Hawks still switched defenses as long as Hamilton blocked and pickled, anyway, to ensure that there was someone in front of Hamilton, but did not give Billups and Michael Curry a chance to shoot in the open position, and deliberately gave Ben Wallace and Clifford Robinson a mid-range position.

The ball went to Clifford-Robinson again, and was capped just now, Clifford-Robinson was very jealous, and Hamilton also cut into the inside line from the right side in order to give Clifford Robinson a better chance to shoot, and Ratliff couldn't keep up with Hamilton's footsteps.

Clifford Robinson saw that Liu Mang was the only one under the basket to defend Ben Wallace, and was pushed away by Ben Wallace, and immediately passed to Ben Wallace, this is a good opportunity!

Ben Wallace received the ball and smashed it to the basket with a roar......

"Smack"

Liu Mang couldn't stop Ben Wallace, the first defensive goal was not achieved, and there was a backup - shark slashing tactics!

Liu Mang directly hammered Ben-Wallace's hand to grab the ball and knock the ball away!

The referee's whistle blows, the thug fouls!

Two free throws!

"Oh......"

Ben Wallace roared angrily, looked at Liu Mang viciously, and felt very unhappy, it doesn't matter if it hurts, the key is that the other party actually cut him!

However, Ben Wallace couldn't get out of his breath, Liu Mang didn't even look at him after the foul, went over to talk to Rahim, and said loudly: "Sharif, next time you foul you, that corn-whisker-headed guy is too hard, and it hurts!" ”

Rahim knew what Liu Mang really meant, which was to come once by one person to avoid a foul crisis.

For Ben Wallace, if he receives the ball so deep under the basket, the backup tactic is to cut the shark, and the number of fouls must be even, so as not to let the main player on his side carry the foul crisis, and if necessary, he can replace Chris Crawford or Newbell, or even Boozer.

To prevent Ben Wallace from scoring under the basket, Liu Mang and Raheem, the two of them are okay together, but if there is only one person left, they can't be stopped, but it's not impossible, just cut the shark! Just let the Pistons know that the Hawks will foul Ben Wallace when he receives the ball, and if Ben Wallace doesn't make a free throw today, they won't dare pass in.

And Ben Wallace made a free throw...... It's never been possible!

Although it is a little shameless, the Eagles are used to the statement shamelessness, and winning is king!

Ben Wallace is angry! He was quite confident in his hairstyle, but he didn't expect the nickname he got to be corn whiskers!

Not to mention, Ben Wallace thinks it's really a bit like, which makes it even more infuriating!

Walking to the free throw line, Ben Wallace was very unhappy in his heart, his hand was still a little painful, and he made two free throws!

Missing two free throws can be considered a turnover!

After the official timeout came back, the Pistons still didn't score a point!

Liu Mang's tactical strategy went well!

……

On the army to attack the plan, the heart is the first, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the next is to attack the city.

It's the same with basketball.

Discuss with the Pistons and let them stop struggling, this obviously won't work, they are so irritable and angry today, it was Liu Mang who provoked them.

It's a good idea to fight normally and play your own characteristics, but the start has been tried, and it doesn't seem to work, it's good that the other side is serious about defending, and Billups and Ben Wallace have calmed down and suppressed the rhythm, which is very bad for the Eagles.

There is also a hard fight, with a stronger fighting spirit than the other party, hard fighting.

This is a bit stupid, the other party is obviously very well prepared in the past two days, and the Hawks are also well prepared, but after all, the Hawks are leading by a big score, and the NBA has a saying that the winner will not take the initiative to respond, and the Hawks don't know what kind of changes the Pistons will have, and they will suffer if they fight hard.

In that case, use stratagem!

Erode the Pistons' lead step by step, hit the Pistons' self-confidence step by step from all aspects, and suppress their spirit of striving for dignity!

Blocking Billups and Michael Curry's three-pointers, trying to prevent Hamilton's mid-range shots, giving Ben Wallace and Clifford Robinson plenty of mid-range shots, Ben Wallace slashing the Sharks under the basket.

The average coach's defense is to prevent all scoring opportunities of the opponent as the goal, which is the idea of most mediocre defensive assistant coaches.

A great defensive assistant coach, such as Mike Woodson, will selectively give the opponent's worst scoring ability to shoot, such as thinking about giving Ben Wallace a shot at the beginning of the game, but Ben Wallace can't come out at all.

And Liu Mang's strategy is to give the other party some opportunities, and one is still two! This makes it impossible for the Pistons' offense to see anything wrong, as there are always people who have scoring opportunities, but they can't shoot......

After the first quarter, the Hawks managed to overtake the score 20-19!

In the second quarter, the Hawks continued to maintain this style of play, replaced Mentola, mainly to maintain the tonnage of the interior, just play slowly like that, and are not in a hurry to play counterattacks or anything, just suppressing the morale of the Pistons.

Liu Mang also took Hamilton to consume Hamilton all the time.

At halftime, the offense of both teams was almost bad, and the Hawks led the Pistons by three points at 41-38 at halftime.

Slowly, the morale of the Pistons began to fall, and they could still hold on in the first half, and in the third quarter, when Hamilton was running slower and slower, and even Muhammad, who was in the center position in the third quarter, could barely keep up with Hamilton's footsteps, the Pistons understood that they were completely successful!

Hamilton has to make every effort to get rid of Liu Mang's pursuit on the offensive end, and Liu Mang has to defend against Liu Mang on the defensive end, and the consumption of physical energy is not just as simple as 1+1, but after reaching a certain point, Hamilton's physical fitness has avalanche-likely declined!

By the middle of the third quarter, Hamilton couldn't keep up with Liu Mang!

In the second half of the third quarter, Liu Mang received the ball and shot continuously, scoring 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting in the first quarter!

On the Pistons' side, Hamilton couldn't run, and the offensive end collapsed directly! In the second half of the third quarter, the Hawks only scored two points! The difference was suddenly stretched from 5 points at the halfway point of the third quarter to 16 points!

At this time, the fighting spirit of the Pistons was completely crushed by the Hawks!

From vowing to fight hard before the game, to a few minutes before the start of the game, the Pistons played a 14-8 into the highest point of ecstasy, and then flourished and declined, and were overwhelmed by the score closely followed by the Hawks, and were overtaken after the first quarter, and then fell behind, and after the point difference was suddenly stretched to more than 10 points, the Pistons' fighting spirit basically collapsed!

When the third quarter was finished and the score difference became 16 points, Liu Mang heard a hint and knew that the game was stable!

"Ding...... Detroit's Fury effect ends with the Detroit Pistons. ”
