It was also at this time that the Pistons head coach finally reacted, immediately chose to take a timeout, and then made a substitution adjustment, replacing the inactive Mills with Jerome Williams.

Although Williams has 206 cm, he is only 93 kg, and his speed and agility may be able to keep up with Ji Liang, but there is a clear gap in power and tonnage.

The head coach of the Pistons is also helpless, he can only hope that Williams can entangle Ji Liang and try to reduce his shooting percentage.

After the timeout, the Pistons' possession of the ball, Hunter broke through with the ball, but didn't shake off Billups.

Billups didn't lose his position and harassed Hunter so much that he had to pass the ball to Stackhouse.

Without hesitation, in the face of Kidders' defense, Stackhouse chose to turn over and shoot a jumper.

Swish~

At the critical moment, Stackhouse scored two valuable points for the Pistons.

Seeing that there was no chance to break quickly, after re-serving, Ji Liang slowly ran to the front court, and Billups dribbled across the front court.

After his teammates settled into position, Chi Liang received the basketball again, and just as he was about to hit Williams with his back, Leitner immediately rushed up and wrapped Chi Liang with Williams.

However, Ji Liang was still calm, he held the basketball while moving his feet, and immediately found an opportunity to pass the ball.

Boom~

The basketball bounced off the ground and appeared outside the three-point line in the bottom corner, and Billups immediately threw a three-pointer at Hunter after receiving the basket.

Boom~

It's a pity that the three-point shot was missed, but Ji Liang seized the opportunity, and with the help of O'Neal Jr., he tapped the basketball hard, and finally put the ball into the basket.

The head coach of the Pistons saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but he couldn't think of a way to contain Chi Liang for the time being, so he could only hope that the players would be a little more powerful.

This process didn't last long, and in the eighth minute of the second quarter, the Nets began to rotate and once again selected a semi-main lineup.

On the Pistons' side, Stackhouse was rested, and Hill continued to stay on the court and organize the team's offense.

Because Ji Liang and O'Neal Jr. were not on the court, the Pistons' offense was obviously much smoother, coupled with their hot hands, they repeatedly hit the basket and quickly narrowed the difference.

Of course, this is also related to the Nets' defense, which is difficult to limit the Pistons' offense because the run-in is not as good as the Pistons.

In addition, Cage is finally getting old, which also causes Leitner to start to explode, start to give in the penalty area, and the score rises rapidly.

On the other hand, the Nets are obviously in trouble, and under the tight defense of the Pistons, the Nets began to fall into a scoring drought, especially not to mention, they missed three consecutive shots.

Except for Armstrong, the other players also had a bad hand, and they kept hitting iron for a while, giving people the feeling that they were playing more iron than anyone else, and thus fell into a scoring drought.

Honk~

Seeing that the situation was not good, Coach Rivers hurriedly applied for a timeout and began to give advice to the players.

After returning to the court, the Nets finally improved, but they were still not as efficient as the Pistons, and the original lead began to be gradually eroded by the Pistons.

However, the Nets did not stop scoring after all, and with just over three minutes to go, by the end of the first half, they were still in the lead, but the advantage was eaten away by most of the time.

61:58

This is the score of the first half, in the second quarter, it only took the first half to score a quasi-triple-double of 16 points, 11 assists and 8 rebounds.

Not long after, the halftime was over, and the third quarter of the game officially began, under the arrangement of Coach Rivers, Ji Liang continued to play, and he was partnered with O'Neal Jr., Margetty, Kiders and Billups.

Margeti may be less experienced than Newman, but he is more physical, and Coach Rivers is hopeful that Magetti will be able to limit Hill.

Unfortunately, Hill didn't continue to play, and the Pistons were led by Stackhouse.

The Pistons' possession of the ball, Hunter carried the ball forward, and after coming to the three-point line, he passed the ball to Starkerhouse, and then he and his teammates scattered to give Starhouse enough space to play alone.

The next moment, Stackhouse changed direction and broke through, shook off Kiders in two or three steps, and quickly approached the basket.

Chirping~

A piercing sound of friction sounded, and before Ji Liang could help defend, Starkerhouse made a quick stop jump shot and threw the ball hard to the basket.

Swish~

This goal, scored!

After the switch between offense and defense, due to the great advantage of the interior line, the Nets naturally focus on the interior line.

After a pass, Ji Liang knocked away Williams, turned over and jumped, almost unaffected, and easily threw the ball into the basket.

In the next round, Starhouse hit a three-point cold shot, and before Kidders could react, he made another three-pointer to show a hot touch.

On the other hand, the Nets once again focused on the interior, and this time Ji Liang passed the ball to O'Neal Jr. after attracting the bag, and the latter scored a layup.

What will happen next will be a real battle, but the Nets' offense is still stable and continues to focus on the interior.

Facing the Nets twin towers of Ji Liang and O'Neal Jr., the Pistons were powerless to limit and could always be easily scored by them.

It's a pity that Stackhouse is like crazy, his hand is quite hot, showing the temperament of a nerve knife, and under his maintenance, the Nets have always struggled to open up the point difference.

Honk~

In order to interrupt Stackhouse's touch and limit him, Coach Rivers chose to take a timeout and replace Kidders with Newman instead.

After the timeout, the Pistons also made changes, and Hill returned to the court to organize the team's offense.

The Nets' offense, taking advantage of Hunter's lack of concentration, Billups broke through with the ball, and before the opponent could put pressure on him, he suddenly accelerated, temporarily shook off the opponent, and quickly attacked the restricted area.

At this point, Williams of the Pistons pounced on him.

It was also at this time that Billups jumped up against Williams, and instead of opting to shoot, he passed the ball towards the bottom left corner.

The basketball passed through the gap and appeared in Ji Liang's hand. It turned out that in the process just now, Ji Liang did not follow Williams closely, but moved towards the bottom corner.

Before Hill helped defend, Ji Liang jumped high, stretched his body as far as he could, and threw the basketball softly.

Swish~

The basketball is hollow into the net, and the white-red net swings a beautiful net flower.

After hitting a three-pointer, Ji Liang slowly retreated and began to organize the team's defense.

Soon, Hunter took advantage of Williams' cover and easily got rid of Billups' entanglement and ran towards the three-point line.

Hill immediately passed the ball, and before Billups pounced, Hunter even had time to adjust, staring at the basket in front of him and soothing the three-pointer.

Swish~

Rushing~

After seeing the three-point shot, the Pistons fans let out an overwhelming cheer to cheer for their players.
