Chapter 231: Change of Plan
As the saying goes, if you are willing to cut your body, you dare to pull the emperor off the horse. Willie unexpectedly resisted Drummond, in fact, because of his increased confidence, and at the same time he fought hard, the dantian pile had a certain effect, but it would definitely not be the main factor, otherwise he would not be so prostration, he would not dare to play the inside line again.
Playing against the Celtics, most of the Kings' players have improved their self-confidence. Players are also human beings, they are just like ordinary people, they can't do anything well when they lack confidence, and once they have confidence, they burst out with amazing energy.
Now that Skar, Willy, and Bogdan have all stepped forward, the king's strength will become stronger and stronger in the future. Thinking of this, Zhang Feng took the ball through the half court in his heart, and since Willy didn't want to play inside, he called Bogdan to cover without the ball. However, Bradley has a keen sense of smell, Zhang Feng just made a gesture, and Bradley also beckoned Reggie to change the defense at the same time.
Of course, a player's defensive ability is not only reflected in speed and strength, like Bradley's awareness, Zhang Feng is very helpless, and in the face of Reggie's delay, he can only continue to dribble to the left to find opportunities. Fortunately, Scalar reacted quickly, stepping out of the interior and pretending to stop Reggie's pursuit, which forced Stanley to follow to the outside.
Four people appeared on the 45-degree three-point line on the left side in an instant, and just when there was chaos, Zhang Feng raised his head slightly, and Skar's mind would run back directly. In this way, Zhang Feng has Stanley and Reggie by his side, while Skar himself is unguarded.
Scal used a backward way to go inside, he easily received a pass from Zhang Feng, turned around and was about to go to the basket, but was blocked by Drummond who was raised high, he had to easily push and give the ball to Willy.
Oops! The moment he saw Scal's pass, Zhang Feng rushed to the inside line to prepare to respond, he didn't know how weak Willy was, in case Willy's soft layup was covered, it would be worth the loss.
Seeing that Drummond couldn't recover, even though he was weak, Willie took a deep breath and jumped on the spot, intending to put the ball into the basket.
But like the previous round, the amazing scene happened again, Willie actually made a layup three times without sticking. Note that he wasn't blocked by the basket, but a three-no-stick that the Nets didn't touch.
Drummond was about to turn around and jump to block, but the basketball smashed on his head, and he didn't know why, he didn't have time to turn around and grab the ball, but he couldn't be blamed, because Scalr didn't know why the basketball was in his hands.
Drummond was stunned for half a second before looking back for the ball, but Skar finally reacted, jumped on the spot and dunked with both hands, and the basketball smashed on Drummond's head again impartially.
The first hit had no strength, Drummond didn't feel anything, and the second time because it was a strong dunk, Drummond was smashed and squatted on the ground.
This kind of ball hurts the Pistons' morale the most, first, their outside defense is very good, and even a little bit of a destruction of the king's strategy, even the second block, Stanley also did it in time to follow the defense, even if Drummond did not succeed in the block, that is, he lost 2 points, how should there be a situation of being humiliated one after another.
The Pistons attacked, Della ignored the fact that his teammates were already in the open position, shouted loudly for a strong play, and Reggie had no choice but to pass. Willie knew he couldn't guard against it, and beckoned to Scar's bag. Supposedly, Drummond should have passed to Stanley, who was in the open space, but he had already fallen into a frenzy, forced to turn and jump, and was finally cut off by Scalar.
Confusion, dissatisfaction, and irritability all came over the Pistons, so much so that they didn't pay attention to the King's fast break in the first place. Zhang Feng, who was unguarded, quickly retreated and received a long pass from Scal to score an easy layup.
"Pause", Big Van Gundy can't stand it, if Drummond is allowed to be so willful, this game can be regarded as an explanation.
"Andre, calm down, anger will destroy you, if you want to be a legend, you must learn to control your emotions", timeout, Big Van Gundy did not say any tactics, because the Pistons' tactics are fine, he only intends to make Drummond stop the irascible way of playing.
To be reasonable, this kind of well-intentioned dissuasion Drummond should have nodded in gratitude, but he didn't hear what Dafan was talking about at all, he just took it as the same old thing that he often said when he paused, stay passionate, and focus on defense.
At the end of the timeout, the Pistons attacked, and Drummond mentioned the three-point line to block Bradley. Considering that it was too late to change defenses, Zhang Feng stepped up his horsepower to bypass the block and keep up with Bradley in time.
Seeing that there was no hope for the shot, Bradley turned his hand and passed the ball to Drummond, who he hoped would make a high post and run to the inside, while Reggie ran to Drummond to prepare for the catch.
The big center high position strategy should be a very popular style of play in the current league, the Pistons this offense, either to cut Bradley inside, or to Reggie to reorganize, Zhang Feng weighed again and again and chose to continue to follow Bradley, but he found that Bradley suddenly stopped and looked at the basket.
Is it to be empty-connected? Not to mention a little distance, his identity as a cap master has been ignored like this? Zhang Feng felt that the Pistons' offensive handling was too simple.
Zhang Feng, who was ready to go, didn't wait for the empty pass, and this crisp sound of hitting the iron made him react instantly-the Pistons shot, or three points! , he turned his head and saw that it was Drummond who shot.
In the small-ball era, it was normal for a center to shoot a three-pointer, and it was nothing if he didn't miss, but Drummond is playing iron now, and the situation is very different, his teammates, coaches, and even the home fans are disappointed, they think Drummond is playing tricks, and the Caesars Arena Jr. suddenly resounded with boos.
Drummond saw that Stanley didn't grab the rebound, he turned around and ran back, and the boos from the audience made him blush instantly, but he didn't think he had any problems, but he missed a three-point shot, and the defense was tied in the next round.
The king attacked, Zhang Feng controlled the ball and advanced, and he suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, to change the plan to blow up Bradley and attack Drummond instead, because by several coincidences, Drummond was about to lose his mind.
As soon as he thought of it, Zhang Feng accelerated directly from the three-point line, relying on the dual advantages of speed and strength to squeeze through Bradley's defense, and stopped after rushing to the inside.
It is taboo for a point guard to stop the ball inside, and Zhang Feng's behavior directly attracted Drummond and Bradley to wrap up, but he took advantage of the formation of the encirclement and handed the ball to Willy, who stood up to respond.
Willy didn't shoot after taking the ball, but passed it to Scal, who was flying in the air. Scal catches the ball under the basket and dunks with a backhand in the air.
"This dunk is too easy, I can't feel the defense", Zhang Feng began to trash talk.
