"After the success of our Black Seven last season, especially after that series of events, it can be said that the grudge between our Knicks and the Pistons has been raised to a new level, and the smell of gunpowder in this game must be very strong, before the game starts, I only have one thing to instruct, that is, to control my emotions!"

"Don't worry! Coach, now we have the home advantage. Besides, all we have to do is be ourselves and win! ”

"Well, after talking about the outside defense, let's talk about the main inside defense! Ma Long, Yao Ming, in this series, the two of you will be the focus! First of all, I want to ask, which of the two of you will defend Ben? ”

Yao Ming glanced at Ma Long, seeing that Ma Long didn't have anything to say, and after a little hesitation, he said first: "Coach, leave this guy to me, although his impact is really good, but I can protect the basket, after a season of adjustment, I feel great now!" ”

"Very well, then the most resolute responsibility is given to you, Rashid's personal defense is handed over to you, no one will help you to assist, can you do it?"

"Don't worry, when I played, this guy didn't know where he was!" Malone just replied lightly, after a series of fusions, especially after the competition with Kwame, Malone has adjusted his state to the best, but the saying that Rashid is a child is now qualified to say this in this league.

"Very well, then let's talk about the attack in the first game! We can't just go for a high-low level offense, and Larry's defensive system is definitely not to be underestimated, that being the case. Let's talk about it briefly. This first game. We're going to play the offense with individual ability, Hill, the first game win, it's up to you alone, remember who you were in the first game, you were a scorer, not a playmaker! ”

Hill was slightly stunned when he heard this, but only nodded. Indicate that you know what to do.

"Here...... These are the areas where Hill scores, we know, and the Pistons must know, but I want to say that this is just the area that we limit for Hill, not what Hill is best at, and Prince is very good at height, length, and range of movement, but he is not the best defensive breakaway player who is a little skinny. ”

"Hill, this round of the series, I'm allowing you unlimited access to your breakthrough abilities. Tell your ex-employer what is the real you! ”

"Understood!" Because Hill's injury has a serious impact. Although the repair is basically completed now, and Hill's absolute explosiveness is retained, if Hill still focuses on his knees and ankles as before, it means an increased risk of injury for Hill.

Before the start of the season, Hill thoroughly analyzed his offensive structure, changed a lot of places that needed explosive power, changed to use more of his own skills, used his body, and the ability of his left and right hands to change the explosive point and reduce the burden on his injured parts...... It took too much effort for Hill to turn this season into another peak of his own.

"Don't rely too much on our talent, but our offense should be relatively simple, strong, and resolute, and the Pistons with Ben Wallace and Prince are the most disruptive teams in the league, but our Knicks defense is the team with the biggest offensive range in the league."

"That's the biggest problem the Pistons face, Ben and Prince's one-man defensive ability can only be described as average, but with Larry's system, it's a team with strong defensive ability."

During this nearly ten-day break, the Knicks' main tactics are centered on singles, and how to turn a strong point into a strong point of the whole team is a topic that the Knicks have to study.

After the start of the game, the Knicks directly surprised the Pistons, and Hill, who had not yet fallen into a good position, had already broken through Prince and successfully singled directly, without using any high and low positions, what grade of echelon offense, it was a direct single.

After Larry saw this, he didn't say anything, this first goal was indeed very raiding, and his team was just a little slower, and whether Hill's goal was tactical or accidental, the attack in the first leg could not say anything.

On the other hand, Rashid directly faced Malone to defend as if he was under strong pressure, and after being interfered with and not scoring this goal, Yao Ming squeezed Ben's bounce space, Hill grabbed the rebound, and then slowly dribbled to the front court by himself.

When Prince was in place, Hill started to break through the attack directly on the right side of his best position, Rashid hurried over to help defend, and Hill began to pass the ball at the moment when Rashid assisted in defense, but this time the Knicks did not use the best pass in turn, but immediately passed to Ray Allen on the left foot after Malone received the ball, and got Allen, who shot three points in the vacant position, and did not let go of this opportunity.

Chauncy and Ben did a blocking and dismantling cooperation, Chauncy directly faced Yao Ming's change of defense, relying on his own one-man ability to score the first goal of the Pistons.

Then the Knicks or Hill went to break through Prince, and after Rashid came over, he immediately passed to Malone who followed up and made a successful layup.

It seems that in front of Hill, Larry's defensive system that dominates the league is not worth mentioning, and Hill can easily defeat him.

But if you look at it this way, you can't find that it corresponds to Hill on the right, Gong Feng stands at a 45-degree angle on the left, and Allen has already appeared on the bottom line, Yao Ming is in the high position, and Ma Long is on the left side of the three-second zone.

These players are in positions with shooting ability, and they are the best shooting positions, and once a Pistons player responds, maybe with just one pass, the Knicks' two big three-point shooters on the outside will have a few open opportunities.

Just two minutes passed, and Larry Brown called a timeout, and instead of shouting at the direct player, he made defensive adjustments, and Prince gave up on shooting defense against Hill and instead took a step to defend.

Hill smiled when he saw this, and tried a three-point shot on the outside, and although the ball still went in, Larry still clapped his hands and encouraged his players on the court.

Hill's three-pointer is a dead shot, which is something Larry firmly believes.

But if the Knicks' offensive routine is like that, is it possible to get 65 wins this season?

The next time Hill saw that Prince still put himself three points, he immediately passed the ball to Yao Ming in the high post, and he came to the low post on the right side to continue to ask for the ball, Ben Wallace stuck to Yao Ming tightly, and did not give Yao Ming space to shoot, but Yao Ming was too easy if he wanted to pass the ball.

Hill, who received the ball, quickly made physical contact with Prince and completed a backward shot, even with Prince's height, he couldn't interfere with such a Hill.

After seeing this, Larry made a gesture directly, and all the Pistons players were stunned when they saw it, but they couldn't help but start swaying their whole bodies, preparing for the next defense.

The Pistons have a lot of offensive methods now, and it's really a lot more than before, and it's becoming unlikely that the Knicks want to limit them all.

In terms of Rashid's ability, singles, strategies, assists, and all of them, the Pistons after adding Rashid not only have a strong one-on-one point in single defense, but more importantly, Chauncey's personal ability is also fully manifested at this time, becoming more difficult to defend.

Just like the Knicks, the Pistons also have two major organizational points, and the remaining players are the best cover and finishers, especially Hamilton's shooting ability is greatly stimulated, and Prince has three-point ability anyway, and he can open up enough offensive distance for his teammates.

The overall ability of the Pistons' starting five tigers is very strong together, but there is no outstanding point in terms of individual ability, and the Pistons have always been a civilian legion, and they are one of the strongest collectives in the league under the current defensive rules.
