Detroit is located in the northeastern part of the United States.

Detroit, the largest city in Michigan, is located along the Detroit River and is an important port city along the Detroit River.

It's May, and it's the most comfortable time in Detroit.

In January, the maximum temperature is only 26 or 27 degrees, and the minimum temperature does not fall below 15 degrees.

When the 76ers arrived, the weather was sunny and Detroit hadn't rained in days.

During the same period, the Western Conference Finals faced two sides, the Spurs and the Rockets.

Speaking of which, the Rockets have also been a season that has finally risen in recent years.

At the end of the season, Yao Ming returned to the court with a jaw-dropping recovery speed, and the state still maintained the same condition as before the injury, and the Rockets' strength increased greatly.

In the first round of the playoffs, the strong Jazz team did cause great trouble for the Rockets.

But in seven games, the Rockets narrowly defeated the Jazz at home.

Yao Ming took a break for half a season, and in the playoffs, the physical strength problem was solved.

The healthy Yao Ming is terrifying, and on the offensive end he has displayed a level of dominance similar to that of Shaquille O'Neal.

Therefore, the Warriors after Black Eight, when they meet the Rockets, they almost meet their nemesis.

The Warriors did not have the anti-natural feel of the Mavericks in the first round, and the strength of the second round was more than one step behind, and finally lost to the Rockets 1-4.

The Rockets finally reached the Western Conference Finals again after Olajuwon.

The Yao Mai combination is also destined to go down in history with its outstanding performance this year.

So even if the Western Conference final against the Spurs of the GDP combination, it makes Chinese fans full of confidence.

.......

Eastern Conference Finals, Auburn Hills Palace Arena.

Far from downtown Detroit, the Auburn Hills Palace Arena is a rarity among all 30 NBA teams.

The arena was completed and put into use in 1988, and it is now close to 20 years old, and a parking lot has been built for the arena because it is far from the city.

On this day, the Eastern Conference Finals.

Detroit fans surrounded the Auburn Hills Palace, and outside the stadium, there were passionate Detroit fans everywhere, and the sound of car horns was constantly buzzing.

Inside the arena, four flames erupted.

In the deafening cheers of the fans, the two sides entered the East Finals.

The 76ers fielded the starting lineup: Iverson, Kyle Korver, Iguodala, Al Harrington and Durham Porter.

On the Pistons' side: Billups, Hamilton, Prince, Rasheed Wallace and Chris Webb.

Chris Webber was silent a lot, at the beginning of the previous season, he was in the Hawks, and he was angry when he saw the "ungrateful" 76ers who sold him away, and even faced the media with a lot of dissatisfaction.

Later, he suffered a recurrence of his old injury, missed consecutive games in December, and returned to the court without being brave, and before February, the Hawks actually bought him outright.

Compared with the fair trade of the 76ers, the buyout is simply the biggest humiliation for him.

Chris Webber thinks he is still an All-Star in the league, but he is just plagued by some injuries, but the anxious Hawks actually bought him out directly, and the salary of nearly 20 million is paid in full over three years, and there is no need for Webb to reduce the price, and there is no room for negotiation.

At this time, the Pistons were the first to contact Webb, and after losing their big capital, the Pistons knew that the star was cherished inside, and now that there is such a good opportunity to pick up for nothing, of course they will not miss it.

The two sides hit it off, and Chris Webb joined the Pistons with a base salary.

This is the current starting lineup of the Pistons, which can be regarded as the new Pistons Five Tigers.

Speaking of which, Weber's career in this life is inseparable from the Five Tigers.

When he was in college before, he was the Michigan Five Tigers, and then he went to Sacramento, and he formed the Kings Five Tigers, and now he has the Pistons, and it is the Five Tigers.

It can be called the "Five Tigers" master.

When old acquaintances meet, if they are off-the-field, they will inevitably have a greeting for a while, but on the field, each is his master, and naturally no one can convince anyone.

Before the start of the game, when Webb and Iverson shook hands, the two sides were vaguely ready to fight.

......

Chris Webb jumped the ball and the Pistons got their first offensive opportunity.

Billups steadily advanced through the half, and the 31-year-old Billups is one year younger than Iverson.

Billups has solid ball control and is much better at protecting the ball than Larry Hughes of the Cavaliers.

The ball was in Billups' hands, as if it had a spirit, and Iverson looked at it, and he couldn't think of stealing on the spot.

On the other side, Chris Webb came out and received the ball in the free-throw line area.

"The offensive tactics have changed."

Wang Tomorrow shook his head, the previous Pistons team was also a traditional blocking, picking, passing, and cutting cooperation, but since Chris Webb came in the past half season, the Pistons' tactics have not been quite the same.

Between conductions, there seems to be a Princeton flavor.

Of course, it can't be purely Princeton, and even Chris Webb's catch is just a momentary response.

At the end of the day, it's about giving the ball to the Billups organization.

After covering off the ball, Billups passed to Rasheed Wallace, who took a step inside the free throw line, dribbled and used his body to fend off Al Harrington before half-turning a straight-arm jumper.

Harrington couldn't cover it at all, and Wallace hit a solid two-pointer.

"I'm in trouble."

In just one round, Wang Tomorrow saw the tactics specially arranged by the Pistons, and Rasheed Wallace, who finally received the ball, was the main point of attack for the Pistons.

Wallace is stronger than Harrington, has high strength, and is also stronger than Harrington in footsteps, and has a straight-arm jumper that Harrington basically can't cover.

It's good to be able to form a distraction.

On the other side, the 76ers also followed Wang's tactics, and Iverson received the ball in the elbow area and began to block and attack.

With the help of Durham Porter's cover, Iverson broke through with the ball, and Billups quickly joined Hamilton to trap Iverson.

"Pass!"

The king will stand up tomorrow.

Iverson had a good view of the big picture, and knowing that his team-mate must be open, he jumped up and moved the ball to the weak side.

Kyle Korver just received the ball and raised his hand.

Prince had fallen in front of him like a ghost.

"So fast!"

Korver was startled and lifted the ball to put it down.

The "little prince" gleamed in his eyes, and his gibbon-like arm was like lightning, and he stretched out blatantly, and then at an angle that Korver didn't expect, he fell a little heavier.

Korver's hand flicked, and the basketball was ruined off the baseline.

"Our balls!"

Korver was not slow to react and immediately pointed to the front.

The Auburn Hills Palace fans changed from the whistling of "defensive defense" to cheers, and then pointed to the backcourt.

The baseline referee hesitated for 0.5 seconds, raised his arm, and pointed to the backcourt.

Piston balls!
