Chapter 145: Fatal Blow
Byron Davis seemed to sense that someone was spying on him, and he also looked at Osborne's position with a sharp heart, his gaze met with Osborne, full of fighting spirit, as if they could win the game with their eyes. In the end, the two of them just held on to each other for a while, and then they couldn't stand the blank eyes of their teammates, and turned away.
Osborne is very disdainful of Byron Davis's style of play that is out of the traditional point guard, after all, the NBA is getting more and more out of the original model of doing its own thing, turning the players of a team into the kind of selfish people who are eager for quick success, and it seems that they can play five positions by themselves, and such players are extremely easy to defend.
For example, players like LeBron James, Manuginobili of the Spurs once said: "As long as there is a team with James, it is a team at the level of the Finals, so we just need to study the style of play of a team with James." ”
Of course, you must not think that this is a compliment, so that it is equivalent to declaring that in the team with LeBron James, James is equivalent to the existence of weakness.
The reason for saying this is not because LeBron James is weak, but James has an Achilles heel, although LeBron James has its own team system, but the team with James is also very good to defend, you just need to block James from breaking through to the inside, his shooting is punctual and inaccurate, and then cut off his connection with other players, and finally only need to defend the shots of other pitchers.
So this is also the reason why LeBron James broke into the finals six times and won the fourth runner-up, so Manuginobili's words are really not praising James, but saying that as long as we defend James. Anyway, his style of play has been seen through by us, and he can't stand up to the team that plays team basketball alone.
So the team still needs some players with strong functions. There is no need for players who can play in any position, so that's why Osborne despises Byron Davis. He's thrown out the way to win in basketball.
Osborne began his personal three-point shooting show throughout the second half, and he wanted to give Byron Davis, a cocky guy, an unforgettable memory.
Byron Davis still relies on his physical advantage to eat Chauncey Billups, Chauncey Billups also does not show weakness, although there is a physical disadvantage, but he is very crazy to defend Byron Davis, desperately making physical contact, for which he also ate a defensive foul, but his fierce defense has also won him respect, Byron Davis really admires this physical is not strong, but the fighting spirit of the player.
Byron Davis didn't dare to crush Chaunci Billups with his body so blatantly. Instead, use only the back-to-back technique and then make a reflexive jumper, or use a teammate to block and cover the pull-up jumper.
Osborne is really curious to see that Byron Davis is still so active, his teammates can really tolerate his behavior, if he is a point guard, it is just that, but he is obviously a point guard, and if his behavior is not angry, it shows that his boss position is stable and unshakable.
In this case, as long as you defeat you, the boss of the team, it should be fine. Osborne thought to himself. Then Osborne didn't hesitate any longer, directly using Chauncey Billups' body to cover and run out of a shooting space, and then Osborne also made a quick shot from outside the three-point line. The basketball went through the net.
The Hornets then counter-attacked, with Byron Davis launching a counter-attack, who quickly dribbled the ball across the half. He didn't dominate the ball either, and this time he passed the basketball to the team's small forward Jamal Mashburn. Jamal Mashburn was also unceremoniously received the ball and launched a direct attack, dribbling through Tysha Ann Prince and going straight to the Pistons' inside. Hesitating Jamal Mashburn's breakthrough was very fast, and Pistons interior players Daco Milicic and Ben Wallace were a little unable to react, and then Jamal Mashburn threw the basketball into the basket with this small throw.
Osborne still admires this veteran, but he is just a little unlucky, and his strength is absolutely first-class. Jamal Mashburn's goal also cut the Hornets' lead by two points to five points off the Pistons.
Seeing this, Osborne knew that he had to stop the Hornets' offense, and as long as he could hold on to this wave of offense, the Pistons had a good chance of winning, otherwise the game would likely get out of control.
Osborne didn't hesitate to single out David Wesley first, he kept using feints, and then used a Kobe-style back-to-back turnaround jumper, David Wesley couldn't block Osborne, and could only watch Osborne score the basketball.
David Wesley is very helpless, although he knows that Osborne has a single way of playing, that is, three-point shooting, but even this move The players in the league can't reach the height of Osborne, Osborne can eat the whole league with just this move, Osborne's shooting doesn't seem to be able to defend yet, they just hope that Osborne's physical strength or feel will decline.
David Wesley couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, there are always a few players in this league who can't be defended, and Osborne is obviously about to reach that point.
Then the Hornets counterattacked, Byron Davis ignored Chauncey Billups defense, shot directly, but did not shoot, was robbed of the defensive rebound by Ben Wallace, and then he handed the ball to Chauncey Billups to deal with, Chauncey Billups was not soft at all, directly broke through Byron Davis, attracted the attention of the Hornets players, and then he passed the ball to Osborne who was in the vacant position, Osborne was a very accurate three-point shot, and the basketball was very obedient.
The Hornets have suffered from Osborne's three-point shot, they can't sit still any longer, and if they don't want to find a way, they won't be able to play the next game, they must limit Osborne's three-point shot, and then the Hornets reached a consensus on the court, and they used a two-man package tactic, and then Byron Davis organized the offense, Jamal Marshburn, Jamal Magloyle, and David Wesley all had to play their own strength, and strive to catch the Pistons off guard.
It's just that the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, the Hornets' offensive tactics are good, and the success rate is high, but there is still no way to defend Osborne.
I saw that Jamal Mashburn and David Wesley's double bag did not play any role at all, Osborne still continued the good feeling of the first half, how to shoot, how to have, it was simply unstoppable.
Then Byron Davis couldn't bear it anymore and joined the army defending Osborne.
Osborne saw that the Hornets were pestering him with so many people, and he didn't pass the ball immediately, he still wanted to play his role heartily. Osborne motioned to Chauncy Billups to pass the basketball to him, and then he ignored the three-man package, first used a feint to shake David Wesley, and then directly used the back play to strengthen the skill of turning and backing up the jumper, ignoring the combined defense of Jamal Mashburn and Byron Davis, and directly threw the basketball out, and then turned around and defended it without looking, and the basketball was still very obedient.
Osborne's three-pointer dealt a fatal blow to the Hornets, who were behind and were in an even more critical position in the fourth quarter if they couldn't get back into the situation. (To be continued.) )
