Chapter 122: It's time to compete for FMVP
Cullen is Bill Davidson's wife, Bill Davidson, the most successful owner of the Pistons in 09, died, and then Cullen took over, but Cullen is not Jeanie Buss, she didn't have the heart to take care of the NBA team, so a year after Beal's death, the Pistons were sold.
"What the hell does this guy Sun want to do? Did he come to Detroit to do something? Why is it that he hasn't played in two games in Los Angeles and is so crazy when he comes to our home stadium? As the owner of the team, Cullen was a little unhappy to see Sun Zhuo so arrogant.
Even more displeased than her was Bill, who couldn't even speak for his worries.
Seeing Bill's appearance, Karen hurriedly said softly: "Bill, don't worry too much, there are those guys on the field, they will deal with it, we still have a chance." ”
Bill Davidson bought the Pistons in 1974, and under his management, the Pistons won two championships in 1989 and 1990, and this year will most likely be the third.
Bill is now 81 years old, his body is not as good as a year, Bill knows very well that he may not be able to last a few years, this year's Pistons team can finally reach the Finals, if you miss the championship this year, Bill doesn't know if the next time the Pistons win the championship, can you wait.
Sun Zhuo didn't know that Bill Davis existed, and he didn't take care of the feelings of the elderly, so he hit the free throw accurately and completed the feat of 17 points in a single quarter!
Even Kobe couldn't help but say to Sun Zhuo: "Dude, you're crazy today." ”
Sun Zhuo smiled, "It's all about winning, don't care." ”
Kobe Bryant smiled: "How come, I wish you could play so well in every game." ”
Before, the Lakers only scored 16 points in the first quarter, and after the restart, Sun Zhuo scored 17 points alone before the first quarter was played.
Changing the feeling of the past made Sun Zhuo feel a sense of accomplishment.
Next, the Pistons took out the tightest defense against Sun Zhuo, and Sun Zhuo did not continue to use the BUG, and with his current ability, 17 points in a single quarter is enough, and he did not score again in the following time, but Kobe Bryant took over the task of scoring, Kobe was very iron before, but I didn't expect that under the stimulation of Sun Zhuo's 17 points in a single quarter, Kobe's shooting rate became improved.
The Lakers led the Pistons by 15 points in a single quarter.
Before the start of the second quarter, Phil Jackson said to everyone: "We had a really good start, Sun helped us make this game easy, and then if any of you guys drag their feet and get reversed by the opponent, I'm going to punish him for training until the next morning." ”
On the Pistons' side, Sun Zhuo has made the whole team lose morale.
Rasheed Wallace was already jealous of Sun Zhuo's cooperation with Mike Shinda, and now Sun Zhuo is so beautiful on the field, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.
Larry Brown remembered what Popovich had reminded him to be careful of Sun Zhuo, who had beaten the Spurs by surprise, and now the plot seemed to be repeated.
Billups said: "Sun can successfully single Hamilton, although we didn't expect it before, but it's nothing, I think the key is his defense, he is more and more aware of our style of play, often anticipating our passes or shots in advance, and can predict it accurately, which is terrible. ”
"Chauncey, I don't think Sun can single me, he was just lucky in the first quarter, and the shooting percentage will be so high." Hamilton was not convinced by the fact that he was blown up by Sun Zhuo.
"But his first step, you really can't keep up." Ben Wallace also interjected.
"You can try to switch me to defend him, I think I can interfere with his shots very well." Prince said.
Larry Brown didn't say a word, it's not that he didn't know how to deal with Sun Zhuo, after Sun Zhuo had already shown a strong breakthrough ability, Larry Brown already knew how to defend Sun Zhuo.
What he worries about is that everyone is talking about how to defend Sun Zhuo now, but the Lakers are the team of O'Neal and Kobe, both of whom are super stars at the historical level, and as opponents, if they focus on Sun Zhuo, it already means that they can't beat the Lakers.
Although Sun Zhuo set off a storm, it was O'Neal and Kobe Bryant who worried Larry Brown all the time.
In the second quarter, the Pistons played more cautiously and defensively more focused, and the mistakes they had made before did not appear this time, but the Lakers also played better than the previous second quarter.
Kobe Bryant was unwilling to be robbed of the limelight by Sun Zhuo, and he was even more ferocious when attacking, missing an attack, desperately grabbing the rebound, and attacking twice.
O'Neal is also more excited, he thinks that Sun Zhuo is his best partner in the competition for FMVP, and now Sun Zhuo has helped O'Neal consume Kobe's contribution, and then as long as O'Neal throws the ball he should score inside, it will naturally surpass Kobe.
Although Sun Zhuo scored less points in this quarter than in the first quarter, he also scored 6 points, scoring 23 points in the half, and the Lakers continued to lead the Pistons by more than ten points.
"In the previous game, the Pistons scored the most points Hamilton, he scored 31 points alone, but this time, he only scored 11 points in the half, and it is estimated that he will be powerful in the second half, as long as I defend him well, it will not be difficult to win this game."
Sun Zhuo knows that the key to the Pistons' win lies in Hamilton, and understands that his task is arduous, the previous time Sun Zhuo appeared in the leaky defense, this time did not appear again, basically, as long as Hamilton received the ball scored by his teammates, Sun Zhuo did not let Hamilton win again, however, Hamilton's single Sun Zhuo's score increased.
After three quarters, Hamilton was still the Pistons' top scorer, and the margin was reduced to single digits.
Sun Zhuo started to worry a little, he couldn't do it all over again, he lost again, right?
Now that Sun Zhuo has scored 30 points, he still scores from time to time, but because the rhythm of the game is completely different from the previous one, the scoring frequency is far less than when he first started.
Sun Zhuo has been looking forward to the plot that happened in the previous game on the court, and in the fourth quarter, it did appear.
Kobe missed the shot, the ball bounced out of the frame, the Pistons got the rebound, Billups broke fast for the first time, Sun Zhuo also ran over to catch up, and in front of him, there were already people following Billups.
At this time, Sun Zhuo noticed Prince behind Billups, and suddenly thought of the previous game, when Billups did not make a layup by himself when he was fast-breaking, but a pass from the back of his head to Prince.
Nowadays, it's the same situation again, a person's passing style will not change, Billups's choice must still be passing!
"Prince!" Sun Zhuo realized that the focus of the defense this time was on Prince, not Billups.
Sure enough, after Billups jumped, he didn't go straight to the basket, but played a very handsome behind-the-head pass.
Syllable!
As soon as the ball arrived in Prince's hand, it was slapped by Sun Zhuo!
"What?" Billups and Prince were both shocked.
Sun Zhuo picked up the ball and attacked quickly, O'Neal was very slow to return to defense, he was still in the front court, Sun Zhuo quickly passed to O'Neal, but Ben Wallace reacted quickly, appeared in front of O'Neal at the first time, and did not give O'Neal a chance to score directly under the basket.
However, it doesn't matter, Sun Zhuo has quickly run to the three-point line.
O'Neill then passed it back to Sun Zhuo.
Three-point hit.
33 points.
The assistant coach joked: "Sun has 33 points, he may score 40 points today!" With such data, you can compete for FMVP, hehe. ”
Phil Jackson originally laughed as well, but Phil suddenly frowned again......
