Chapter 104: Trash Talk Fails for the First Time!

Grant Hill is still calm and calm, but he does not allow Zhang Yu to be presumptuous on his home court, "elegant" does not mean easy to bully, I don't know how many stars returned home in the "Auburn Hills Palace" last season, his All-Star ticket king did not rely on "elegance", his elegance hides a killing intention!

"I think it's the killing **** Zhang Zhu and Hill today, he knows that this guy is very similar to him in many places, such as the two of them like to start dribbling and attacking from the backcourt. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Pippen in the early days, as well as Hardaway and Mashburn in recent years, is also this style, last season some people thought that the young Hardaway, Hill and Mashburn will be an emerging genre in the league, and now the addition of Zhang Zhu has completely caused a quantitative change, many professional media people have begun to use the title of "point forward" or "organization forward" to describe these four rising stars, because these four people need to have the ball in their hands to play their power, and they have more assists than many point guards, so that's not "point forward".

ESPN even went so far as to call the "Big Four", believing that these four are likely to replace the aging Big Four in the future and become the new protagonists of the league.

Of course, Mashburn is a bit unpopular now, in addition to his assists being much lower than the other three, and more importantly, his appearance is too far from these three!

These three are more handsome than the other, and Marshburn's appearance affects the formation a little, so many people think that it is right to be three strikers now, but the number "three" is not good, so it depends on whether there will be a genius No. 3 position similar to the three in the league next year, or a dual-energy striker.

Hill was transported to the front court and was immediately forced by Zhang Qiu.

He had to try Hill's ability to break through the tight defense first, but Hill's ball handling skills were indeed much better than him, dribbling on the spot and dodging the gap, changing direction and hitting the inside.

Zhang Yu was not completely shaken off, his explosiveness was stronger, and he followed closely from behind.

Hill was halfway through the breakthrough, and he smelled a bad snack.

Bison came up to fight with the boss, and Alan Houston hit a two-point shot from the outside, which is the most common combination of the Pistons this season - Hill burst into points, and Houston hit an accurate shot from the outside.

"I know why you have so many assists." Zhang Qian was unhappy, he was just ready to wait for Hill to make a layup in the back, and suddenly burst out to complete the block, but he didn't expect this guy to pass the ball.

"You've got a lot of assists, too." I don't know if Hill was saying this ironically, or if he was complimenting him.

Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment, and then found that what people said was very clever, if someone with dark psychology heard it, he would naturally feel that he was sarcastic. But when people with good character hear it, they will feel that they are being polite to themselves. And a tsundere villain like Zhang Qi will feel like a villain, and he will be embarrassed to open his mouth if he wants to provoke with a word.

"Ma Dan, sure enough, being cultured is different, I'm completely embarrassed to provoke again, my skin is still not thick enough."

Zhang Wei finally knew why this guy's popularity was not as bad as him, and now he seemed to be uneducated.

The Lakers didn't focus on Zhang in the first quarter, and after he made that not-so-scientific negative angle shot, he began to make wedding dresses for his teammates.

Coincidentally, Hill also played the same way, but Zhang Mao's subsequent defensive method of "letting go of the shot and not letting go of the attack" made him very passive.

It can also be seen that both of them attach great importance to this game, but Zhang Mao has been emotionally reflected from the beginning, and the other has always maintained an elegant style.

But it can't be said who has a better style, Zhang Zhu's personality is more extroverted and aggressive. Hill has a more reserved personality and is less susceptible to negative influences.

Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and one of Zhang Fu's flaws is to discard his teammates, because his aggressiveness is not only reflected in his opponents, but also affects most of his teammates.

Van Exel's often can't go crazy when he is on the court with Zhang Zhu, Campbell has not been able to find the form to play center this season, only the big-hearted Bisen and the mentally stable Ceballos can play at a normal level next to Zhang Mao.

Hill's flaw is the lack of explosive scoring ability, but he does not waste his teammates, and the defensive pressure on Houston's side is not small, so Hill activated the third scoring point, and Lynch Hunter made three shots after the opening game to help the Pistons make the score 11-2.

Harris immediately called a timeout and told the team to play more inside.

The Pistons' shot was in the paint, and they couldn't threaten the Lakers' interior under the basket and in the low post.

At this time, it is much easier for them to have a Divac, who can hold the ball in the high and low positions, and can completely drag the Pistons' defense down the line like a nail, and the Lakers' outside offense will be better launched at that time.

Even with a Magic in the lineup, now that the Pistons are stretching their line very far out, it's time for them to launch an offensive in the low post and in the box to push their defensive formation back.

Pistons head coach Doug Collins is also embarrassed, if they can launch an offensive on the inside, it will not make Hill so uncomfortable to be entangled by Zhang Mao, as soon as he breaks through, he will be caught by two Lakers players, Hill has only had the opening assist performance so far.

Zhang Wei looked at his data of only 2 points, and his heart didn't hurt so much, because Hill on the other side was no better than him, and both of them were targeted by each other.

After the game restarted, Zhang Mao began to break through the ball brainlessly, anyway, if Van Exel can't pull up, it is not as good as the efficiency of his attack with the ball.

At this time, it was not clear who had the better personal ability of Zhang Qi and Hill, but the ability of the two leaders on both sides was quickly exposed.

The Lakers' second-in-command is Ceballos, and the Pistons' second-in-command is Alan Houston.

The two have completely different playing styles, one is a baseline mouse who specializes in cutting, and the other is a no-blind turret that specializes in projection, but after the defensive intensity is raised, Ceballos, who seems to be good at cutting, is more efficient.

Ceballos, for his side, received consecutive balls from Zhang and other teammates, and scored the ball closer to the basket.

The Pistons' defensive system, which has not been very solid in recent years, can't catch Ceballos's weird cut at all, and Alan Houston's defensive ability doesn't look good enough.

But on the other hand, Alan Houston's shooting was frequently ironed, and the lack of consistency in the shooter allowed the Pistons to quickly overtake the score.

Hill was a little embarrassed, in the past he and Houston were the main output points of the Pistons, but today it was point guard Lynch Hunter who carried the firepower in the first quarter.

Zhang Wei didn't feel embarrassed, the Lakers didn't play well at the beginning, and then they had the upper hand, and he had to admit that Ceballos helped him a lot.

After the first quarter, the Lakers led the Pistons by 5 points at 24:19, and Zhang Wei scored 4 assists, although he only scored 4 points, but such data has exceeded Hill's 4 points and 2 assists.

The Lakers' Ceballos scored 10 points in the first quarter and was the game's top scorer, while Bison also scored six points.

The Pistons' top scorer was Lynch Hunter, who made 3-of-3 three-pointers to keep his team from failing to score 15 points, but Houston over there made 1-of-4 shooting and contributed 2 turnovers.

"Well done, we just need to guard Hill and Houston, the rest of the Pistons players can't always step up, and then, continue to keep the two of them from scoring comfortably, and we're going to win the game."

Harris's defensive mission today has been clear, as long as he chokes Hill and Houston, the Lakers' chances of winning are more than 60%.

At the start of the second quarter, Zhang Qi sat on the sidelines to rest, and Michael Finley came on the court to face Hill.

"I could play the whole game." Zhang asked Harris to play more minutes before the game, and Hill, who has played more than 40 minutes this season, has only averaged 35 minutes per game, and he feels that if he can play five more minutes, he can at least go one step further in terms of personal data.

Harris originally agreed to let him play 40 minutes, but since he led the Pistons in the first quarter, he did not let Zhang continue to play in the second quarter.

Michael Finley, although not as outstanding as Zhang Mao's ability, is much better than the average rookie, and if he is given enough exercise, he should also be a good forward player.

But he should know that Finley is not experienced enough, and in the first fifteen games, Finley has been pressed on the bench by Malik, and in the last few games, he has slowly replaced Malik with his excellent performances in training, but the lack of experience has made it difficult for him to play at a real level against Hill.

Zhang Qi also had a headache for Hill's breakthrough, but he was more flexible in his footsteps, took the initiative to let go of a step and a half distance defense, and was sure that this guy would not shoot three-pointers and long-distance two-point shots, plus there were people on the inside to cooperate with him to wrap up, and he didn't let Hill play his state today.

But Finley's defense is a bit immature, and he is not suitable for defending a player like Hill with excellent skills and a high basketball IQ.

As soon as the Lakers made a substitution in the second quarter, Hill was immediately activated, and the latter broke through twice in a row, one caused the Lakers to foul inside, and the other caused Finley to fight, completing a 2+1.

"It's time for me to play, right?" Zhang Qian saw that Finley's defense was a little stiff, not because his defensive ability was too poor, but because he was too nervous + didn't know how to deal with a star player like Hill.

Harris regretted it too, but replacing Finley with Finley seemed to be too much of a blow to the rookie's self-confidence, so he motioned for Finley and Malik to switch defenses and let the more experienced Malik defend Hill.

Well, such a seemingly normal change of position immediately made the Lakers' performance worse on the defensive end!

Malik's small body can't resist Hill's impact at all, and his two-hundred-pound body is very suitable for defending Houston, who is nimble, but against the powerful Hill, he is eaten to death. Finley on the other end was also not suitable for Houston, who was nimble in defense, and even Houston, who was sluggish, scored a goal.

Zhang Qi looked at the scenery on the bench, looking east and west, but he just didn't look at Harris, so as not to embarrass his coach even more, he was very witty.

Harris was really embarrassed, and in the 9th minute and 49 seconds of the second quarter, he had to replace Zhang Qi in advance, because the score came to 24-25, and the Pistons only took two minutes to overtake the score, but the Lakers didn't even get a point.

"If you want to play well, you can't miss a baby koala!"

After Zhang Yu came on the field, he whispered to himself beside Hill, which immediately attracted a burst of surprised glances from the other party.

"What do you see, I'm looking for a meeting gift for you, how about sending you despair?"

Hill couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and reacted to Zhang Qi's words for the first time.

"You're talking very interestingly, and I want to make friends with you."

Zhang Fu: "......"
