It was another away game to lose, Hu Qingniu had already expected in his heart, the Bobcats did not have the strength to crush, and his goal was to steal a victory away from home and reverse the home advantage.

In fact, analyzing the Bobcats' lineup, it is obvious that there is a lack of a top three-point player, Dazhi, Wade, and Alstom all have three points, but they are not actually top-notch, especially in the intensity of the playoffs.

On the pitch, the centre-forward and the goalscorer are natural allies. Once the center is caught in the low post, he quickly splits the ball to the outside line to smash the enemy's strategy with projection. In traditional basketball, times have changed, and with the change in technique and tactics, shooters and centers have worked more closely together.

Hu Qingniu wants a professional three-pointer, but the good three-pointers in the league are not easy for the Bobcats to get. In this stalemate, a highly talented three-pointer is often a good choice to open the game.

A lot of the data in the first game was moved to the front of the stage, such as the Pistons who made 24 Bobcats in a game, and the Bobcats also gave the Pistons 26 blocks.

As for the Bobcats who only scored 60 points, it doesn't seem to be something difficult to accept, because a few days ago, the Pistons only scored 56 points against the Wizards, setting a new playoff scoring record in 86 years.

The Pistons won, and people began to clear Larry Brown's name, as most media fans sided with Iverson after Brown's breakup before the season began.

At that time, accusations against Larry Brown were in the press. And not only the Philadelphia newspapers, but also in the mouths of a crowd of fans and the media, Larry Brown did not get enough respect. Superstars tend to be more loved by fans and the media, so when a star and a coach clash, it's often the coach's side that is the weakest, which is obviously unfair to the coach.

Look at how the 76ers have played this season, leaving Larry Brown and they haven't even made the playoffs. And for the Pistons, Larry Brown carried through his proposition of "playing the right way".

Under the command of his aptitude, every player has a clear self-positioning, and Ben, Campbell, Prince and others who should do hard labor will never be in the limelight and shoot indiscriminately; Anthony, Billups, Hamilton, and Rashid Wallace, who were in charge of attacking the position, were not relentless when they had opportunities at critical moments. And Larry Brown can give second- and third-rate players a second and third chance in his own hands.

Even the Zen master's opponent commented, "Brown deserves all the accolades, and his coaching ability and influence have earned him the respect of everyone in the basketball circle." ”

But Brown also has its flaws.

Larry Brown has often been at odds with management or players in his previous coaching experience, whether it is the Nuggets, Nets, Spurs or Clippers, the result is often to turn around and walk away, and most of them are unhappy, so when leaving the Clippers to join the Pacers, managers of other teams even say, "I don't know where this old man will go to coach tomorrow." But he still lasted four seasons in Indiana, at one point leading the team to the Eastern Conference Finals.

Why is he like this? If you ask the people who know him best, like Carl Scher, the general manager of the Denver Nuggets back then, "He's never satisfied, he's a perfectionist, and he never seems to be able to find his own standard of perfection, like fighting his own inner demon, Brown is a fan." Later he came to Philadelphia and met Aaron Iverson, who undoubtedly wanted to change what he thought was an ignorant teenager.

Iverson still dresses like this to go to training, and he and Larry Brown are two extremes, one is hip-hop and laid-back, the other is meticulous, the other is a street basketball icon, the other is an academic spokesman, one sees playing as war and the other sees basketball as politics. In Larry Brown's world, everyone is supposed to make changes for his tactics, but this time he suddenly hesitated, and he saw someone as stubborn as he was, from the first sight of him.

In fact, Brown changed for Iverson, and in his previous system blueprint, Iverson was clearly out of place. For Iverson, Larry Brown decided to modify all the experience he had accumulated over the decades and the way he played to become a "Brown system" around Iverson, and he didn't know why he became an old Nelson-style crazy experimenter, perhaps because he was impressed by his basketball talent at the first sight of Iverson.

But it all grew as the gap between Brown and Iverson grew wider, and it was destroyed in the end. Whether it's Brown or Iverson, if you calm down and think about it at this time, you may feel guilty about each other.

Brown was too stubborn, and Iverson was too headstrong. Larry Brown, sitting on the couch at home, and Iverson, sitting cross-legged on the street court, saw such reports at the same time. You may all remember that in the 76ers, in their last war, they were all lonely people who turned around and fled.

But with the newspaper closed, it's time for Brown and Iverson to get back on the road.

For Brown, the road is in front of you, just under your feet.

Time flies, and the second matchup between the Bobcats and Pistons will soon be back at Auburn Hills Palace.

Just a few hours before the start of the game, Jordan approached Hu Qingniu and said.

"Stern called me and asked us to try to make the call look good, you understand?"

Hu Qingniu looked puzzled.

"Isn't my job leading the team to victory? Anything else is out of my mind. ”

Jordan spread his hands helplessly.

"There's no room for anything, I think we started with a good system, everybody has a chance to score, you don't have to be like Larry Brown. You know, this style of play, I'm afraid that going to the home stadium will affect our tickets. As an investor in the team, I have to pay attention to that. ”

Hu Qingniu categorically refused.

"I don't know what you're talking about and Stern, I just know that I'm the head coach of the Bobcats, and this is the Eastern Conference Finals, so I have no reason to change the team's style of play."

......

In the end, seeing Hu Qingniu's tough attitude, Jordan didn't continue. Hu Qingniu is one of the few people in this world who can make Jordan soft, of course, this is also outside the basketball court. After all, Hu Qingniu's work attitude Jordan also sees it in his eyes, and now Hu Qingniu of the Bobcat team is a pillar, if he doesn't do it, this team will basically not be able to turn.

What's more, speaking of which, Hu Qingniu has a great kindness to him Jordan, and he can't forget his roots.

On the other hand, Larry Brown certainly got the same message, unlike Hu Qingniu. Old man Brown was even more grumpy, no matter who called, he hung up the phone as soon as he scolded back. If you want to influence his tactical command, such a person has not yet been born.
