185. The Death of Indiana
Billups has the tempo, the inside line is involved, and the outside line has a big gap between him and Hamilton, and Tinsley can't prevent him, so he has a chance to turn the river and the sea.
Miller used experience to suppress Hamilton, but the latter was just a pawn in this game, and the old coach used him to involve Miller, so that the old monster had no time to command the team. From the opening to the second quarter, the Pistons were in the lead, and the Pacers played hard although the score did not fall much.
At 31:27, the Pistons entered the second quarter with a two-point lead.
Originally, the game had come to the time of substitution, but the Pistons finally had a rhythm, and Brown couldn't make substitutions; The five players on the Pacers' side who could control the rhythm were all on the floor, and Carlisle didn't want to make a substitution, so the two sides entered the second quarter as starters.
In the opening game, Tinsley hit the basket and passed the ball to Artest, who pushed Waeben with his back and turned and jumped to score two points.
Hua Ben is still a little depressed, Artest, this guy is not bad at technology now, and if he is faster, he is a poor man's version of the little emperor.
Rashid hoisted up to the top for the ball, got the ball and squeezed into the inside with the opening opened by Wasben, he put away the ball for a jumper, and the tricked Harrington and Foster came to pinch him, and when he had the opportunity, he passed the ball to Mirisic.
However, Rashid and Mirisic were close to each other, the latter got the ball, Foster and Harrington arrived, and directly sandwiched the rookie into a sandwich. Milicic smiled wickedly, almost hand-to-hand pass, and sent it to Rashid, who scored on a jumper from the basket with no one in front of him.
Tinsley directed his teammates to rotate positions and passed the ball to Artest, but Billups, who had not moved, jumped up and cut off the ball and made a fast-break layup, making Artest and Tinsley's pursuit useless.
Carlisle was in a hurry, and jumped below to ask Miller to come up and answer, "Reggie, you are optimistic about the position, go up and help Jamal!" Ron, Al, get moving, get moving! Don't stand still all the time, they're taller and stronger than you, and there are too few gaps in the inner line! ”
Brown and Carlisle went toe-for-tat, and the old handsome man waved his fist angrily and shouted: "Darko, go around, go around!" Are you crouching behind ready to eat? Rashid, watch out for his breakthrough, yes, yes, jam him! Richard, run faster, that old guy can't catch up with you! Ben, oh, you're doing a great job, but be subtle! ”
Artest was about to go out to catch the ball, but Wabeto's big ass tugged and resisted his position.
Miller passes the ball to Foster, allowing the strong floor-flow center to attract interior fire.
This arrangement is very correct, Mirisic is only nineteen years old after all, how strong can he be? Foster slammed into it twice, and he reluctantly backed away. As soon as the other party retreated, Foster also retreated, and a stiff hook came when he pulled away.
The ball was shot, and a blue shadow rushed up from behind him like a rocket, slapping the ball and shooting it out under the basket.
Mirisic turned around and grabbed the ball that flew overhead, passed it to Billups and complained to Warburn: "Captain, do you want me to break the picture?" I'm still a virgin, and I haven't found a daughter-in-law yet! Damn, I have less strength, if I hadn't reacted quickly, my face would have turned into a white cake! ”
"Hurry up, you fuck!" Billups' legs seemed to be spinning fast, and he turned his head and cursed as he ran, and this time the fast break had to be made into a three-on-two to be useful, and Miller and Tinsley were faster than him, waiting for him in the front court.
Hamilton quietly appeared on the right wing of Billups, got the ball and made a quick stop jump shot, and shouted at the moment of the shot: "No! ”
Front-line Miller, Tinsley, and Billups listened to it as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the people who were more than 1.9 meters stuck in the basket, and the ball fell into the hoop accurately.
Seeing this scene, Miller scolded: "Shit! ”
Hamilton smiled on his expressionless face, "Do you really believe it?" Can you not! ”
The next time the offense and defense switched, Hamilton got the ball from Mirisic from the inside and stopped again, but Miller didn't interfere and was thrown away by him.
"Nope!" Hamilton yelled again.
Mirisic pushed Foster away with his head up, and Harrington, Artest and Rashid also squeezed under the basket, all eyes drawn to the flying ball.
Wajben took two steps from the flank into the box, stomped his feet on the floor, and soared into the air like a bison. The ball doesn't glide quickly in the air, which is Hamilton's shooting characteristic, with fast shots, high arcs and slow ball speed, which can make the shooting percentage look better.
Regardless of whether you have it or not, when Huaben jumped, the ball was about to fall to the hoop, he raised his right arm high and grabbed the ball with one hand, and rode a group of fierce men under the basket to smash his arm into the hoop.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and Hua Ben fell to the ground and hissed in the air.
Artest, Mirisic, Rashid and Harrington, who were piled up in the card slots, all became the background and were ridden by him together!
Rashid scratched his head in frustration, turned around and scolded: "It's all your own people? Why are you still doing this?! ”
"Am I being detained?" Mirisic was also disgruntled, but having said that, they had already rushed up together and sandwiched Huaben in the middle, patting the head and screwing the ass, and Huaben screamed in horror: "Who stretched out his hand under Lao Tzu's crotch?!" ”
Pacers fans watched helplessly as their opponents celebrated arrogantly in front of them, and they wanted to boo, but the team didn't do anything to make them shush.
Artest was not willing to be humiliated, scolded and turned his head to attack, and pushed forward to catch the ball. Waben held out his hands to stop him, blocking him in front of him and pushing him in. Artest subconsciously pushed Hua Ben away, picked up his arm and crossed his elbow, and came back for a moment, directly putting Hua Ben down.
This was a hornet's nest, and Prince and Patin jumped up on the bench and cursed. Mirisic rushed up from the bottom line and pushed Artest and shouted, "What are you doing, do you want to fight?" ”
Harrington and Rashid both had their hearts forward, but neither could go up, the former was pulled by Miller, and the latter was blocked by Billups, "It's okay, Rashid, I don't want to make trouble in this game, you see, he got up on his own!" ”
Warben stood up and blocked the relationship between Artest and Mirisic, who were about to be entangled, pushed the two away and said to the latter: "Go back, go back, Darko, we're going to the finals, it's okay this time!" ”
Crawford knew what was going to happen as soon as he saw Hua Ben, and hurriedly ran over, but when he heard Hua Ben being good-natured, his eyebrows in the style of the white-eyed Eagle King wrinkled, yo, this kid has changed his temper?
Wabemoto's surname won the care of the three referees, who gave Artest a malicious foul, and was going to blow Mirisic, but Wabeen played in time to add impression points to him, and finally let him go, just gave a verbal warning, "I won't be so lucky next time, rookie, don't think of yourself as Carter or Maddie." Crawford said, pointing at Mirisic.
After the first game, the Pacers fans began to cry and moan, and in front of 20,000 fans in Indianapolis, the Pistons defeated them by a narrow score of 105-101. Root. Wallace chipped in 20 points, 17 rebounds and five blocks, while Rashid put in a brilliant performance to score a game-high 25 points. Billups continued his steady play, scoring 12 points and 12 assists, while Hamilton and Mirisic had the same 15 points, meaning that the Pistons' five main players all scored in double figures in this game.
Artest, the Pacers' top scorer, scored 24 points. The peak Atai is indeed a hob-knife meat hand, he can twist his ass to occupy a place outside the basket, his physical fitness is good and his consciousness is not bad, and he can always find the gap of misalignment. Hua Ben couldn't stare at him, according to the deployment of the old marshal, he had more important tasks, assisting in defense and supplementing defense.
Except for Huaben, Artest is not afraid of anyone, and Rashid, a character who is so fierce, has lost his temper by his big ass.
At the end of the first game of the Eastern Conference finals, various media experts who had been watching for a long time came out and began to chirp crookedly, but Hua Ben liked to listen to these words.
Continuing the principle that the winner is king, the loser is the loser, and the hapless walker has become the target of criticism:
"In the history of the Eastern Conference Finals, there has never been a team that has been able to come back and win the first game after losing the first game, and this time the Pacers may miss the Finals again, which is a real shame. Miller is said to be retiring at the end of the season, and the top scorer may not be able to win a championship ring for the rest of his life, and the most favored this season is the Polis. It's not because they got the best record in the league, it's that this team is the most reasonably equipped and has the best chemistry, but at the moment, they lack the most important thing to win the championship, and that is luck, yes, they are unlucky, the core of the team, Jermaine. O'Neill's injury couldn't have come at a better time. ”
"We're not lacking in good luck, we've got a lot of talented players, what we're missing is fighting spirit and determination to die, and that's the strength of the Detroiters. It's just the first game and it doesn't mean anything, gentlemen, keep your glasses open and wait for the rest of the game, our counter-attack has just begun. Miller spoke to reporters before the second game.
Just one day apart, the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals continued at the same location.
The Pistons players entered the court in high spirits, one by one like ducks with chicken blood, shaking their heads and tails and pretending to be forced everywhere. But two minutes into the game, the group was honest, and at this time the Pacers began to enter the court, and the first to enter the game was-"Indiana's first tough guy, the only man who inherited the spirit of Indiana's barbarians, humanoid Transformers, devil musclemen, Ron. Artest Te Tete! "He's a man who can do anything, he's always scared of confrontation, and you know, oh God, we've got the best tough guy in the world." ”
Mirisic smirked and said, "Captain, does this fool not know you?" Aren't you the No. 1 tough guy in the NBA? ”
When no one answered him, the old birds of Billups stared over there, and Patin hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Rashid, who had a much better temper, said with a gloomy expression: "You rookies, you can't even see this?" Who was the first and last to play in the last game? ”
Mirisic was still at a loss, and Pattin's face had changed greatly: "It seems that the first person to play in the last game was Reggie. Miller, Artest was the last to appear! ”
The boss of the team is always the last to play, and the first to play is the second brother of the team.
