As soon as the first quarter of the game ended, Larry Brown called the starters to his side and said: "Guys, this season has begun, this is not a preseason, not a summer league, this is a regular season, you have to cheer up, show the momentum of a macho man, and directly defeat the opponent, I know you are still looking for form, but if the second quarter still can't open the score, then I will have to change."

Larry Brown's words obviously revealed that he was a little dissatisfied with the Pistons' performance in the first quarter, and Osborne also knew that he had to play a hearty rout battle, after all, today was different, and the Pistons' ambition to defend the title must be shown, and they must also show their strong strength, so that those challengers who are eyeing the tiger can see what a championship team is.

Osborne, as the main force just now, heard Larry Brown's words, and felt that he had to say two words, "Head coach, guys, in a while, we will come up with the tactics we used in training, and use defense to lock the outside and interior lines on the opposite side, Richard and I are responsible for defending Maddie, Rashid and Ben are responsible for defending Yao Da, and Chauncy Billups is responsible for sorting out the whole team's offense." ”

Larry Brown didn't expect Osborne to directly complete the Pistons' tactical arrangement, and said in surprise: "Osborne, if you become the head coach, I will lose my job, just do as you say, everyone else has to cooperate with Osborne." ”

Everyone agreed very much after listening to it, and Osborne also knew that this was Larry Brown complimenting himself, but it also reflected from the side that Larry Brown and Osborne, the master and apprentice, were in the honeymoon period, and Osborne also gladly accepted Larry Brown's initiative to show favor. Everyone was very happy to go on the field and get ready to go.

In the second quarter of the game, the Rockets also attached great importance to it, if they couldn't open the situation quickly, because they knew that the Pistons would also play in the second quarter of the game, so the Rockets also pinched Osborne, after all, the league has now formed a consensus, that is, as long as Osborne is abolished, it is equivalent to abolishing 80% of the Pistons' combat effectiveness.

The second quarter of the game came as scheduled, the Pistons possessed the ball, Chauncy Billups was responsible for controlling the ball, Osborne was responsible for running without the ball, Maddy also quickly followed, Chauncy Billups saw that Richard Hamilton was vacant, and also had the intention to let Richard Hamilton play, so Chauncy Billups began to run with the ball, and Richard Hamilton and Osborne also quickly crossed the run, but the Rockets were only responsible for defending Osborne, so the defenders around him did not leave an inch.

Osborne's containment also gave other Pistons players a chance to shoot, Chauncey Billups made a wide range of transfer balls, and passed the basketball to Richard Hamilton, Richard Hamilton received the ball and scored a three-point shot, Richard Hamilton's three-point shot was also the first shot of the Pistons to open the three-point rain mode, and then Osborne and Richard Hamilton wrapped Maddy, but Maddie is not so easy to be defended, basically every defensive player is very distressed about him, Because Maddie is talented and creative on offense, especially his pull-up jumper has even become his signature move, which is unguardable.

Maddie kept crossing the dribble with his left and right hands, and then accelerated the crotch dribble twice in a row and passed Osborne directly, thanks to Richard Hamilton's fast follow-up defense delayed Maddie's breakthrough speed, and then Rashid Wallace directly blocked Maddie's eyes, Maddie knew that Rashid Wallace was not a person to mess with, so he simply stopped breaking into the Pistons penalty area, and directly crossed Rashid Wallace's armpit and made a difficult pick into the basket.

Seeing Maddie still score the basketball in the case of three people chasing and intercepting, I admired it very much, even if there was only a little chance, he also seized the opportunity to score the basketball, Maddie is really the best candidate to charge into the battle to overcome difficulties.

Osborne also felt that if he couldn't restrain Maddie, then maybe the game would evolve into a super duel between two people, and only by turning on the three-point shooting mode could he quickly establish a lead, so Osborne was still in a normal running position, and motioned to Chaunsibilupes to pass the basketball to him for a while, Chaunsibio Billups saw Osborne's eyes and knew that Osborne wanted to attack by himself, and no longer hesitated to dribble directly to his side and hand him the basketball hand in hand.

After Osborne received the ball, he didn't wait for the Rockets players to come over to wrap up, so he directly ended the offense with a clean step-back three-point jumper, and then Maddie also wanted to pull out the three-point shot, but unfortunately Richard Hamilton would not give him the opportunity to shoot three points, forcing him to play inside, even if Maddy threw two points into it, it couldn't compare to the Pistons who shot three-pointers, so that after one or the other, the Pistons could win safely.

Then there was a situation where the Pistons pinched the Rockets players to shoot three-pointers, that is, they didn't let the Rockets shoot three-pointers comfortably, and the Rockets pinched Osborne, although Osborne's scoring became more difficult, but his assist statistics came up, anyway, the Rockets limited Osborne's play but couldn't stop his teammates' play.

First Richard Hamilton hit a shot, and then received a pass from Chauncey Billups, he also made a three-pointer from the outside, scoring five points in a row, Chauncy Billups broke through and assisted Osborne to hit two three-pointers, and he also scored three-pointers himself, although he is not a player who shoots three-pointers, but he can also shoot three-pointers when the team needs them.

Rasheed Wallace also followed the touch, scored 6 points under the defense of Juwan Howard, and then Osborne also took advantage of this momentum, threw three three-pointers directly through the Rockets' defense, at the end of the second quarter, Osborne shot 5 three-pointers in the half of the game and directly cut 29 points, the Pistons made 10 three-pointers as a team, and most of the Rockets' goals were two-pointers, so after halftime, the Pistons led the Rockets by 63:52 by 11 points, although Maddie also scored 20 points at halftime, Da Yao got 11 points and 8 rebounds, but the other players did not give it a boost, while the Pistons were in full bloom, which can be said to be an all-round explosion and directly broke the Rockets.

Da Yao also felt that his performance was a little bad, after all, he did not help the Rockets lead the Pistons, but lost so many points, which made him very unconvinced, he felt that no one on the Pistons should be able to stop him from scoring, so he must stand up and blow up the Pistons' interior line and regain the lead, otherwise the Rockets will be in danger, after all, the Rockets don't want to suffer defeat in the opening game.
