The New Orleans Hornets, a league newcomer who only joined the NBA in 1987, have always been an ATM for the rest of the league. Then the Hornets worked hard and have maintained a good competitiveness, since 2002 so far, the Hornets have a good record, the reason for the good record is not one-sided, but the New Orleans Hornets as a new team in the league lack of heritage has always been the shortcomings of the new army in the league.

The performance of the Hornets this season has been very eye-catching, since the relocation of the Hornets home court from Charlotte to New Orleans, the Hornets have become extremely ferocious, especially the duo of star Byron Davis and Magloyer, who seem to be the rhythm of the most tacit duo in the league.

The New Orleans Hornets had a good game last week, with Wednesday's 88-85 home win over the Eastern Conference giants New Jersey Nets, Thursday's back-to-back home win over the hard-blooded Boston Celtics, and Saturday's away win over the Indiana Pacers, another Eastern Conference hegemon, to the Pacers by just one point.

Byron Davis was selected by the Hornets in the 1999 draft, and his performance in his rookie season was not outstanding, but his assist ability was eye-catching, and the following year Byron Davis gained the trust of the head coach, and his statistics in all aspects were comprehensively improved, and he gradually established himself as the starting point guard. In the following years, Byron Davis maintained a very high standard, and in the 2002~2003 season, Byron Davis sat firmly in the position of the team's boss and performed well, averaging 17.3 points and 6.7 assists per game.

This year has been crazy so far. Byron Davis chipped in insane numbers of 22.9 points, 7.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds, and it's clear if nothing else. This year's All-Star Weekend is bound to have a place for him.

Not only that, but Byron Davis' assistants are also very good this year. As a well-rounded small forward, Jamal Marshburn's offensive output has been very stable, averaging 20.5 points and 6.7 rebounds per game so far. and Hornets center Jamal Magloyer is also making rapid progress, the most important thing is to complement Byron Davis, the leading point guard, and is also a center player with an average of 10+10 per game.

So this year's Hornets have a lot of offensive firepower, and Larry Brown learned that the Hornets only scored a low 65 points in the last game against the Indiana Pacers. It's all about that super perverted defense to lock up the Hornets' offense, although he only scored 66 points himself, but he can still win this game I have to say how miserable the game was.

The fierce game of the Hornets also means that the Hornets players will feel tired, but Larry Brown, as a famous head coach, will definitely not just rely on the opponent's player condition to win the game, and the Pistons will only rely on Osborne's anti-heaven strike to defeat the Pacers to win, while the Hornets can play so hard with the Pacers, there must be two brushes.

However, Larry Brown is confident that he will limit the Hornets' offense and win, as he will demand that the team do better than the Pacers' losing team.

Larry Brown gathered the players who were doing tactical training around him for a pre-war mobilization. "Everyone knows that the New Orleans Hornets are very tough this year, and they played quite well last week, even losing by just one point to the Pacers and beating the New Jersey Nets. They are menacing. But as the leader of the Eastern team, we can't let this team with no background ride on our head, we must crush the Hornets with absolute momentum. Do you have confidence! ”

Larry Brown, as the boss of the Pistons, will definitely get the most enthusiastic response from the younger brother below. Even Osborne was not surprised, shouting in unison with his teammates: "Victory is ours." Beat the Hornets. "Such a neat and enthusiastic atmosphere, what if other uninformed people know about it, and still think that this is a pyramid scheme?

Larry Brown was also full of confidence when he heard the enthusiastic response of his players, and he continued: "Victory is played, not shouted, so I will tell you about the Hornets players in a moment, which can be regarded as a psychological preparation for you." ”

"I expect the Hornets to start the lineup should be center Jamal Magloyer, power forward George Lynch, small forward Jamal Mashburn, scoring guard David Wesley, point guard is Byron Davis, a lineup has strong offensive firepower, and the corresponding defense is a little weaker, but their defense has also improved a lot recently, judging from the victory over the New Jersey Nets and only allowing the Pacers to score 66 points, their defense is not weak. The five starters of the Hornets, except for George Lynch, were all able to cut the last double-double, especially Byron Davis and Jamal Marshburn, who are all All-Star level players in 20+ clubs. ”

"You also have to pay attention to the air-receiving cooperation of Byron Davis and Jamal Makloyer, the center and point guard, as well as the pick-and-roll and cover cooperation, so you have to pay more attention to this aspect, and the tacit understanding between the two is getting better and better. The key to today's victory will depend on whether we can limit the point of Byron Davis, as well as the point of Jamal Mashburn, and the cooperation between Byron Davis and Mark Loyle. ”

"So today's burden is on Chauncey Billups and Oss himself, you two must limit the play of opposing players, otherwise the Pistons will hang in today's game."

Osborne and Chauncey Billups knew that Larry Brown had given the order and that they had to lead by example as players, so they replied: "Please rest assured, coach, that today's game will be up to us." ”

Larry Brown knew that the two positions of the Pistons had been very stable, so he didn't ask anything more, and he said to the other players: "The Hornets are not only the starting lineup, but the bench lineup is also very powerful, especially that PJ Brown, who can also cut 10+ data, is very efficient, so today our bench will also come on, if I see the bench players digging a big hole for the main players, then I guarantee that the bench will change a lot." Okay, that's it, the game will start in four hours, so let's get some rest. ”

After saying that, Larry Brown turned around and walked out of the training hall, after all, the smell of a lot of stinky men together is not good, after Larry Brown left, the Pistons players immediately talked about it, especially the bench players who were pressured by Larry Brown exploded.

One of the bench players shouted, "What does the head coach mean, is he going to purge the Pistons bench?" But what's wrong with us? ”

Osborne sneered in his heart when he heard the words of this substitute, you are not wrong, but in the vanity fair of the NBA, weakness is the original sin, and being strong can control everything. Osborne didn't stay here anymore, and went back to his room to rest, if today's task was not completed, he would inevitably have to eat Larry Brown and hang down, in order to eat less hanging, Osborne had to store his physical strength to recuperate, and blow up that David Wesley.
