Between Game 3 and Game 4, the Pistons were deaf to what was going on outside the window, soaking in the gym almost all day long, tirelessly doing the same moves they had done countless times in previous training sessions. It was a punishment for Brown because they played really badly in Game 3 and they might have made that mistake again if they hadn't been punished a little.

Chang Wei didn't think it was a big deal, but it wasn't a bad thing to let these guys practice more, and they were still a little slow to get into the game. This was the case in the last game, when the Pistons players got into the groove more than a beat slower than the Lakers, which made them passive in the first quarter and ultimately unable to salvage the loss.

However, the players had no complaints about such a training arrangement, and the 78 points and 18 points in the game were undoubtedly a wake-up call for them, and they were even more ashamed of their previous hopes of a 4-0 sweep. Now they don't think about anything else, they just want to beat their opponents in the next games and get match points, which is the first priority.

Out of prudence, Brown still sent the regular starting lineup in the fourth game, but before the game, he repeatedly told in the locker room: "I think you should all remember the experience of the last game, facing an experienced team like the Lakers, you can't get into the state quickly is looking for death, I ask you to tense your nerves and muscles from the first second of the game, show all the content of the usual training sessions, and I see who plays soy sauce, then come down and rest!" ”

Brown's voice was not very loud, and his tone was not very heavy, but the Pistons players all shivered excitedly, and it was better to let them sit on the bench in such an important game. Even if the team can successfully get the match point by then, it has nothing to do with their own half a dime, who can let go of this face?

On the day of the game, the Pistons were the first to warm up at the Staples Center, when the stands were empty and it was clear that staff had not yet begun to let fans in. There is nothing to say about the warm-up, and Chang Wei doesn't need to deliberately stare at it, now his status in the team is quite high, and this little thing can be followed by other assistant coaches, and he can stand aside and play soy sauce.

After the Pistons warmed up, they met the Lakers who had just entered the court. Chang Wei felt a little strange about this, before the last game, the two sides basically warmed up together, and occasionally the Lakers would come a little earlier, why was it suddenly so late today? And when passing by them, Chang Wei vaguely noticed that the atmosphere in the Lakers team was a little delicate.

When they fell behind 0-2 before, the Lakers players could still laugh and play before warming up, and the Zen master didn't care much about them, but now that the score has become 1-2, why is the atmosphere of the Lakers team more dignified? And the Zen master's face is not very good at first glance, and those who don't know think that this old man who has always collapsed in front of Mount Tai and has not changed his color is sick!

Soon Chang Wei found the guy who was suspected of being a negative energy source, and Ma Long, who was alone and gloomy at the end of the team. In Chang Wei's opinion, this guy should still be haunted by the fact that he was stuffed into the bench in the last game, even if the team still won in the end. Looking at his face, it should be the Zen master who told him that he would continue to be a substitute in this game, and with Ma Long's character, it is normal to blow up, but this is not good news for the Lakers, and it may weaken the team's combat power.

Originally, Chang Wei thought that there would be some conflict between the OK combinations, and this season more than one media has revealed that Kobe and O'Neal are not used to each other, but in the last game, O'Neal was very positive on the inside, which should temporarily suppress Kobe's dissatisfaction with him. But Malone's state is also beneficial to the Pistons, and the weakening of the enemy is his own enhancement!

Scoring 18 points and 12 rebounds in the third game showed Chang Wei the professionalism of Ma Long, but it is worth noting that his scoring is basically obtained when he leads the bench to play, in other words, it is difficult to get a shot when he is on the court with several other stars, which may be the reason why he is unhappy with his status.

After returning to the locker room, Chang Wei told Brown about his observation and analysis, and the old man looked at him with a smile, nodded and did not speak. He has always felt that he has not fully seen this assistant, every time he thinks he recognizes Chang Wei's full ability, but he can always inadvertently receive another surprise, it seems that bringing Chang Wei to Detroit is indeed the right thing to do. What Brown doesn't understand the most is that it was Chang Wei who Popovich recommended to him at the beginning, and the Spurs are also a team with both strength and potential, why didn't Chang Wei choose to go to San Antonio? But this is Chang Wei's privacy, he doesn't say Brown and doesn't ask.

This time, Chang Wei observed the strange atmosphere in the Lakers team, and Brown had to admit that he had a little feeling, but he couldn't analyze it as carefully as Chang Wei, and more importantly, his analysis seemed to be correct. This undoubtedly gave Brown an idea for Game 4, and when the Lakers put on an all-out lineup, it was enough to catch Malone and fight to the death.

The Zen master didn't know that someone on the Pistons team saw that his team was not normal, and in fact he was also very upset. After the last game, Malone made it clear that he didn't want to play as a substitute anymore, but the Zen master has obviously tasted the sweetness, and he is still ready to let Malone come on the court with a bench lineup in this game, and wait until the second half of the fourth quarter to appear with the other main players.

Ma Long was very resistant to the Zen master's arrangement, and in his opinion, there was no problem for him to continue to stay in the starting lineup. But the Zen master is used to saying everything in the team, not to mention that Malone is only a veteran who joined the team last year, and even Kobe and O'Neal don't dare to blow up with him in person. However, for the sake of the stability of the locker room, the Zen master still tried his best to convince Ma Long, but the latter was still unhappy with this, and he put all his feelings on his face.

Any head coach will scratch his head in the face of such a thing, after all, Malone is not a rookie who has just entered the league, although he is almost 40 years old, and he has not even won a championship, but he is still one of the top power forwards in NBA history, and no one dares to underestimate him. However, in the eyes of the Zen master, such talents are the most difficult to deal with......
