Chapter 153 A game without suspense

Returning in the second quarter, the Pistons' offensive efficiency declined, but it was still in a state of half-heartedness with the Hawks.

However, the Hawks broke out first, and Raheem and Jason Terry, who were originally the strongest trio in the score, took over the Hawks' scoring in the first half of the second quarter.

The offense on the Pistons' side is a little tepid, especially the several wonderful passes passed by Osborne were converted into iron or mistakes by Osborne's teammates, which made Osborne very depressed, but Osborne still gave his teammates a lot of trust, after all, his teammates are not pig teammates, not only not vegetables but also a team lineup that can compete for the championship, Osborne must stimulate the potential of his teammates at this time, so that they believe that the united Pistons team is invincible.

Osborne's persistence finally paid off, and the Pistons began to regain their touch in the second half of the second quarter. First, Tysha Ann Prince received Osborn's breakthrough and hit a two-point shot, and then Chauncey Billups also cooperated with Osborne in the air, Billups went straight into the Hawks penalty area, Osborne cut the ball into the interior with a beautiful pass, and Billups also scored the ball cleanly.

In the second half of the second quarter, the Pistons all made a force, and even Memeteokhu, who had just come up, was able to score 4 points in a row, and Chauncey Billups kept using his rhythm to break through the Hawks' point guard Jason Terry, who was still very immature at this time and couldn't prevent Chauncey Billups' breakthrough at all. Osborne saw that his teammates had finally regained their shooting sensations, and he was more comfortable with bold passes.

Osborne's teammates are in great shape right now, and almost all of them give them the ball and the basketball can be scored. The Pistons suddenly came out of the way in the second half and brought the second quarter to a level with the Hawks. The Eagles' main scorers were Sharif, Abdullahhim, and Jason Terry. Others are basically in a state of soy sauce. And the Eagles experienced a slump in the first half and suddenly exploded in the second half. Both sides scored 25 points in the second quarter.

At halftime, the Pistons still led the Hawks by 11 points at 49:38. The two sides entered the half-time break.

Pistons head coach Larry Brown looked at the sweaty starters, and was quite satisfied with the performance of these starters, but this satisfied attitude could not be expressed. After all, the game is not over yet, he said: "You were not very happy in the first half of the second quarter, but luckily you made up for it in the second half, but if you can be more powerful, we will have a better chance of winning." ”

Everyone was very happy after listening to Larry Brown's lecture, after all, Larry Brown didn't open his mouth to scold is equivalent to praise, so they don't care about Larry Brown's remarks. In fact, they all know that Larry Brown is also very satisfied in his heart, but as a head coach, he can't praise the players before the game is over, so like an Internet troll, he finds a problem that is not a problem to spray.

Larry Brown saw that his disciples could also see his mood, so he didn't pick a bone in the egg, and began to lay out tactics: "In the second half, we have to kill the Hawks cleanly without hesitation, and we can't give them a chance, so in the next third quarter of the game, Osborne, Prince, and Wallace all came down to rest first." Let Chauncey Billups hold up for a while with the rotation lineup. In the fourth quarter, let you wreak havoc for the whole quarter, you play as long as you can win, I won't call a timeout. ”

Everyone was a little shocked by Larry Brown's later words, and they all thought in their hearts that this is still the domineering head coach? Even gave some benefits to the Pistons players, and it seems that the head coach has learned to guide the players through inducements. Unlike before, he only used coercive orders to force players to obey him. For Larry Brown's change, it all starts with Osborne, who is a thorn in the bucket after all. I don't like others to always tease his scales.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Pistons continued to attack. First, Chauncey Billups hit a two-pointer, and the Hawks were not to be outdone. Jason Terry also hit a three-pointer to go back to color. Then it was Billups who assisted Memetoku for a hook and scored two points, and then Hawks center Raheem also forced Memetoku to dunk violently.

The two sides are so fierce that the players in the rest area and the audience in the stadium are very happy to watch, Osborne has not seriously watched this intensity of scoring performance for a long time, after all, the regular season is just an exhibition game, although there are scores, but the confrontation is not strong, this section of the two sides not only showed the viewing of the score, but also the physical confrontation, really good-looking. In particular, the hand-to-hand combat of interior players seems to have returned to the feeling of punching to the flesh in the eighties and nineties, but the Pistons players are obviously not dominant on the inside, and the power center like Memetoku defense Raheem is obviously unable to bear, and it is also thanks to the Pistons' outside players who burst the Hawks out.

In this way, the two teams played a full quarter of violent basketball, and finally ended with the end of the third quarter of the game, and the Pistons were only eight points ahead of the Hawks, but Larry Brown did not let all the main players play from beginning to end of the third quarter, and Osborne rested for a whole quarter, feeling that his body was about to rust.

As soon as the fourth quarter came up, Osborne couldn't wait to take over possession, after all, Chauncey Billups was also tired for three quarters, so Osborne, as the Pistons' most passable player besides Chaunci Billups, took on the task of organizing the offense.

Osborne first hit a three-pointer with a pick-and-roll screen, and the game margin stretched to double digits. Then Osborne kept attacking the Eagles' interior, constantly killing the Eagles' interior, he sometimes passed the ball skillfully, and sometimes scored by himself, which made the Eagles who lacked an outside defensive gate very uncomfortable, and it was very difficult for a player like Osborne who could shoot and pass, after all, his teammates were not vegetarians.

Osborne is now like a fish in water, his various statistics are going up, and even one more steal and a block, which makes Osborne appear more versatile, the Hawks are gradually unable to keep up with the rhythm of the Pistons due to the team's main four quarters of the game, and the Pistons' defensive intensity has also come up, the head coach of the Hawks watched his team quickly be defeated by the Pistons, and there was nothing he could do, called two timeouts in a row, but the situation did not improve in the slightest, and it was getting worse and worse.

In the end, the head coach of the Eagles withdrew and announced his surrender when he saw that there was no hope of victory.

However, Larry Brown did not take this opportunity to replace the main team, after all, there is a word in the first place, as long as they can win the fourth quarter, they can play casually. In the end, the Hawks lost 93-109 at home to the Pistons.

Osborne cut the team's most luxurious all-around data of 36+8+9+2+1, which made Osborne's teammates very envious, but they also knew that they did not have the same unlimited firing rights as Osborne, so they had to accept their fate.

This unsuspenseful game ended with a big win for the Pistons. (To be continued.) )
