In the second quarter, the Hornets took the lead, Byron Davis ignored Chauncey Billups' defense and hit a three-pointer, and then Richard Hamilton also hit a three-pointer in the corner. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When Osborne originally thought that the Pistons would play a big offensive battle with the Hornets, he found that he was outrageously wrong, and then the Pistons began to wrap Byron Davis, Byron Davis immediately became dumb, not only he Jamal Magloyer was also dumb, the main scoring points of the Hornets inside and outside were limited by the Pistons, and the Pistons themselves were not accurate.

The Hornets saw that both sides were in a scoring drought, so they had no worries and went all out to break the Pistons' blockade, ready to break the deadlock with their individual ability.

However, the Pistons have long been prepared, and they are determined to pinch Byron Davis and Jamal Magloyer in this game, and they don't care about any other points.

Byron Davis tried again and again to break through the Pistons' blockade, but unfortunately all failed.

Jamal Magloyer didn't have a pass from Byron Davis and couldn't play with the ball individually, at this time a young player stepped up and shot a super difficult three-pointer directly at Richard Hamilton, and then broke through the Pistons player defense and broke into the interior to send a cannonball to Jamal Magloyle, and Jamal Magloyle was activated again.

This young player is JR Smith, this person is not very familiar with the Pistons players, but Osborne is very clear, such a player feels that no one can stop it, and it is possible not to score without a basket, a typical nerve knife player.

His sudden outburst made the Pistons players a little unable to react, and the Pistons desperately tried to defend J.R. Smith and prevent him from continuing to shoot three-pointers, but what puzzled the Pistons was that the more you defend him like this, the more J.R. Smith came along, and without the time when you felt that the block was about to be successful, he cleverly avoided it, and finally Larry Brown couldn't stand it, so he called a timeout in time to cool down J.R. Smith's touch, and adjust the defensive focus by the way.

At this time, Osborne walked directly over and said to Larry Brown: "Coach Larry, we don't need to pay attention to that JR Smith now, the focus of our defense is still on Byron Davis and Jamal Magloyer, that JR Smith is just a nerve knife, no one can stop the feel when it comes, and the feel will not go into the basket without it, so the defense is ineffective for him." ”

After listening to Osborne's words, Larry Brown said: "Osborne, how do you know that defense is not effective against J.R. Smith, and even if it is not effective, then you can't let it go, that would be too underestimating our defense." ”

Osborne also knew that such words alone would not convince Larry Brown, "Coach, you just listen to me, this guy doesn't need to defend too much, because he also has a characteristic, that is, instability, he can't be so accurate in every game, I believe his touch will drop after a while." ”

Larry Brown also knows that Osborne won't talk nonsense, but he hasn't been convinced yet, but he will give it a try, if it really works, the Pistons can focus more on Byron Davis and Jamal Magloyer, and everyone else will no longer be distracted by defending the nerve knife.

After the timeout, everyone else ignored Jr Smith, or concentrated on Byron Davis and Jamal Magloyle, J.R. Smith was also supported by his teammates, Dandy Cow passed the basketball to him several times, the first ball lived up to expectations, the second ball J.R. Smith hit the iron, and the basketball fell directly into the hands of Rasheed Wallace of the Pistons, and Rasheed Wallace threw the basketball directly into the hands of Chauncey Billups.

Chauncey Billups immediately organized a fast break, Richard Hamilton got rid of Jr Smith and took the lead in standing at the three-point line, J.R. Smith hurried over to defend closely, but Chauncey Billups had already passed the basketball to Richard Hamilton at this time, and Richard Hamilton did not choose to shoot directly after receiving the ball, nor did he choose to break through.

He first pretended to shoot, and then prepared to break through, but what Richard Hamilton didn't expect happened, J.R. Smith jumped up directly to block Richard Hamilton, Richard Hamilton saw J.R. Smith jump up so easily, he also jumped up and shot three-pointers directly, even if he didn't score, there were three free throws?

And J.R. Smith was very annoyed why he jumped up, but now he can't save anything, he can only watch his arm hit Richard Hamilton's hand, and Richard Hamilton's three-point shot also went around the basket a few times before entering, Richard Hamilton scored a 3+1 that immediately boosted the morale of the Pistons.

Then Jr Smith didn't know what was going on, and suddenly became dumb, and he couldn't score several empty shots in a row, and then Larry Brown knew that this Jr Smith was really a nerve knife player, no one could stop him when he was on time, and he couldn't shoot when he wasn't allowed, and he was so easy to be fouled, and his defensive awareness needed to be strengthened.

If there were no accidents in this game, the Pistons would have taken it down, and Osborne saw that J.R. Smith was really unstable, and he had wasted many offensive attempts by the Hornets, and the Pistons seized the opportunity to shoot a lot of key shots.

J.R. Smith's dumb fire suddenly plunged the Hornets into a serious scoring drought.

At the end of the third quarter, the Pistons had led the Hornets by 17 points at 66:49, and the Hornets had no way to continue to resist.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter of the game, the Hornets withdrew their main force and replaced the bench players, and the Pistons were not careless, replacing Richard Hamilton, Rasheed Wallace, Ben Wallace, and Elden Campbell, Daco Milicic, and Enfield to play a good game.

Because the main players of the Pistons have not all come down, the Pistons' offense is still playing very fluently, while the Hornets are full of holes, and they are beaten into a sieve by the Pistons, Daco Milicic and Elden Campbell have scored two points in a row from Chauncey Billups, and the Hornets players do not have much individual offensive ability, even if they occasionally break through into the restricted area, they are capped by the Pistons interior players, this scene is really miserable.

Seeing that the big picture was settled, Osborne didn't want to look any further, so he went straight to the locker room and prepared to rush with the team to the Dallas Mavericks, this time the Pistons were in Texas again.

In the end, the Pistons won 89-73 over the Hornets, and there were few surprises in this game, except for a small wave for J.R. Smith. (To be continued.) )
