"It's okay, it's okay, just beat our rhythm!"

Stan Van Gundy motions for Alston to take control of the ball.

Woody continued to pull to the perimeter, giving Shaq O'Neal room to catch the ball under the basket.

Ben Wallace fought hard, but he couldn't fight Shaq O'Neal. Or let him hold the ball in a very comfortable position.

Rasheed Wallace quickly returned from the high post.

Shaq O'Neal took advantage of the situation to give the ball to Woody.

Woody, who came to the high position, did not hesitate to raise his hand to the ball.

The ball hits the basket.

Second hit hit!

“wow！” Drexler sighed.

In the domestic studio, Director Zhang also said "ho".

It was a simple mid-range, but it was the second mid-range Woody hit in the fourth quarter.

Combined with the fact that he didn't score a mid-range in the first three quarters.

You can probably see why these commentators are so excited!

Whether Woody can open up his mid-range touch is too important for the Heat to win this game.

And Woody successfully lit up his "mid-range shooting" at the most critical moment.

In the NBA, 48 minutes are long, and sometimes it's the last 5 minutes.

The Pistons counterattacked.

Billups' handovers began to become decisive.

In terms of Billups' style of play, he's not a traditional No. 1 position.

At least he can't carry all of a team's offense by himself like Steve Nash and Jason Kidd.

This is the reason why he became a "parallel import" in the first place.

But if you put him with a power forward who has some playmaking skills and allows him to play to his shooting strengths in the individual offense, he's going to be very tricky.

That's why he made a name for himself with the Timberwolves.

The arrival of Rasheed Wallace allows him to continue the style of play he played during his time with the Timberwolves.

That is, the "offensive mode" of receiving the ball after handing over the ball.

When Alston received the ball again, he chose to step forward and press, Billups simply held the ball and burst forward, and when he stepped into the free throw line one step inside, he suddenly made a sharp stop and made a jumper.

This is his usual scoring method, once he enters the rhythm, even if the defender in front of him is not out of position, the ball he throws, whether it goes into the basket or not, is completely up to his own feeling.

Just like this ball, there is no problem with the curvature of the basket that flies away.

This shows that Alstom, who was defending in front of him, did not form any interference at all.

Unfortunately, the ball bounced off the basket and quickly fell out again.

Thankfully, Ben Wallace grabbed the rebound. - Ben Wallace, who is 202cm tall and has an explosive head, is so magical.

Even though he is surrounded by a lot of people, he can just rely on his hard work to grab rebounds.

It's a pity that there is no offensive ability, and this ball can only be handed over and reorganized to attack.

The good news is that the Pistons are good at that.

Billups slowly directed his teammates to land, and Rasheed Wallace suddenly mentioned the three-point line to catch the ball, attracting the attention of the Heat defenders, and it was at this point that Hamilton went around the baseline to the other side and successfully took the ball.

"Huh!"

Jones didn't play a long game, but Hamilton, who defended without the ball and was already in the rhythm of the attack, really lacked a bit of flavor.

Not as good as Wade.

After all, the age is also here.

But this is just to tie the score, anyway, the initiative is still on the side of the Heat.

And the Pistons are becoming more and more passive.

Because Woody is very accurate in the middle distance right now.

So much so that Rashid Wallace's feet in high positions became more and more difficult to move.

Alston and Shaq O'Neill exchanged passes twice, and seeing that he still had no intention of going inside to make up for the defense, after this pass, Shaq O'Neill was very decisive to hold the ball and play with his back.

With just a push against Ben Wallace behind him, he turned around very confidently.

"Phew!"

"Shark into the sea"!

Ben Wallace tried to the limit, but he still lost to talent!

This is also a reality that most ordinary people have to accept.

Ben Wallace was not frustrated and served aggressively.

He'd been in it so many times that he felt a little numb.

He knows a truth very well, as long as he can respond, then no matter how much humiliation there is, it doesn't count.

Otherwise, how could there be a "fighter" name?

His positivity also made Billups, who was holding the ball on the outside, very relieved to play Alston alone.

The defensive ability of the "Street Ball King" was put to the test at this moment, and then the test was not qualified......

"Huh!"

Or a pull-up jumper, and this time Billups made it.

Keep it to the draw!

The game time fell below the last 2 minutes at this time.

Tomjanovic gestured to Rashid Wallace from the sidelines.

Rasheed Wallace, who noticed his gesture, was decisive when Alston dropped the ball to Shaq again.

Obviously, he meant to let Woody throw it, and if he could throw it, he would admit it!

Woody doesn't care what kind of formation he is on his side, anyway, he will shoot when there is a vacancy, and what stands out is a self-confidence.

"Bang dang!"

Unfortunately, this time, the ball didn't go in.

The moment the ball falls out of the basket, the basket immediately grabs up.

The one who ended up stealing the ball was ......

Woody!

With his excellent bounce, he snatched back the basketball he had lost.

"It's not easy!" Drexler looked at the slow-motion defense, and this time the rebound went through the hands of at least five people, and finally Woody took the offensive rebound with a more explosive body.

This man who can get the "rebounding king" when he enters the league does have his own uniqueness.

Well, well, what's so unique!

It's just that the physical fitness is too explosive!

And in the chaotic battle for the basket under the basket, the unwitting defender of Woody became Ben Wallace, and Rasheed Wallace stood next to Shaq.

Standing with his back to his back, Woody noticed that the other side had tacitly let Ben Wallace deal with him.

In fact, there is no way to form a bag, as far as Woody averages 7 assists per game this season, these guys dare to come up to pack, but they are afraid that they will be punished by Woody's passing immediately.

And......

What is the relationship between Woody and Ben Wallace, they all know it!

Just let it happen!

Try to go up against Ben Wallace.

The latter's outstanding strength was displayed at this moment, but Woody was not alarmed, because he was only testing to make sure that he could make sure that he could complete the turn. Again, he stepped up his strength.

Ben Wallace was already surprised by Woody's summer changes, but now that they are facing each other together, he is more realistic about Woody's progress, and he is full of caution.

But Woody's ball-handling singles were more crisp than he thought, and the second was a big fight, and he was only slightly pushed away, and the guy immediately turned around and played high, Ben Wallace could only symbolically reach out and interfere, and then watch him score a basket over his head.

The whole offense was at a smooth pace.

No one would have imagined that this guy could only rely on running without the ball to "eat cake" last year.

This rate of progress is even more exaggerated for Ben Wallace, who knows Woody well.

Back then, he thought Woody was a genius, and now he thinks Woody is a "genius among geniuses"!

Woody used a "back-to-back single" to give the team the lead again.

These crucial two points made Bill Wharton on the ESPN commentary bench can't help but say: "Starting today, this league has another representative player in back-to-back singles!" ”

At least after watching this round of offense, no team would dare to easily let Woody hold the ball and play alone at a critical moment.

He's really capable of singles!

In terms of defensive ability, how many can pat their chests and say that they must be better than Ben Wallace?

No, Ben Wallace watched the ball fall into the basket, and patted Woody who was still standing next to him with half relief and half emotion: "Boy, you are really getting stronger!" ”

That's when I went to catch the ball and serve.

There are feelings, but Ben Wallace clearly doesn't intend to throw in the towel.

Although there is less than 1 minute left, the difference is only 2 points.

But he didn't want to admit defeat, but he could only leave the offense to his teammates.

Billups faced Alston with the ball, and when he came up with confidence, he still played alone.

Well, there's no better option.

Hamilton is in good form, but he doesn't always get rid of Jones, who is playing against him.

Alstom's choice this time is to take the initiative to defend closely.

He was stuck at a point in time, with 14 seconds left in the game time, which was an awkward time and a point in time when it was likely too late to rearrange the tactics.

This made Billups, after a little thought, still choose to take his own shot.

Forced breakthroughs.

Billups is still very stable in singles against Alston.

In the confrontation, he managed to leave Alston behind.

It's just that this time when he shot, I don't know when the Heat's No. 95 appeared in front of him.

A large hand shrouded the ball that had just flown out of his hand and slapped it against the back of his head.

Gerald Wallace was clearly confident in Woody's defense, going down early and as fast as one of Woody's former teammates.

This allowed him to hold the ball smoothly while completing the fast break very smoothly.

The difference is 4 points.

The balance of victory tilted in favor of the Heat, and the Pistons even used foul tactics in the next step, but still failed to chase the score again.

With Woody's key offense and defense, the Heat finally defeated the defending champions by a margin of 98-91, 7 points on the road, and took away this very difficult victory.

The game is over.

On the Heat's side, Woody scored a total of 14 points in the first three and a half quarters, and in the last five minutes, he scored 6 points on two consecutive shots plus the "back single" layup that sealed the victory, and scored 20 points in the game, in addition to 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.

The shooting percentage is not very high, only 50%!

In this game, his outside projection is still too poor, if you don't count the fourth quarter, it is even more 0%!

But in this game, his key ability was proven.

The Heat, who used to settle games in the last minute by Shaq O'Neal, have one more option from tonight.

Shaq O'Neal finished up scoring 18 points in the game, not many shots, hitting 7 of 11 shots, plus 4-of-8 free throws, which is very efficient with Shaq O'Neal.

In this game, his main focus is a containment.

Tonight's show was all about Dwyane Wade, and even though he wasn't on the floor in the final moments, he took the most shots of the Heat tonight, hitting nine of them on 21 attempts, including a 3-pointer and 4-of-5 free throws, for a team-high 23 points, five rebounds and four assists.

His excellent flank breakout impressed everyone tonight.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that "Double Ben" was restricted by Woody and O'Neal, I am afraid that it would be difficult for him to complete such a performance.

On the Pistons' side:

Billups finished with 18 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists; Rasheed Wallace had 15 points, eight rebounds and four assists; Hamilton was in excellent shooting form tonight, scoring a two-pair high 24 points, but as a shooter, his ability to attack with the ball on his own was really poor.

There is no way to receive the ball and complete the attack at critical moments, which is a common problem for all shooters.

It is also the reason why the team with the absolute core of the shooter cannot win the championship.

Ben Wallace finished with eight points, 13 rebounds and three blocks, and made 1 of 5 free throws.

Very Ben-Wallace data......

At the end of the game, he ran to Woody and hugged him: "Boy, you've surpassed me!" ”

He readily admitted it.

After all, he can only influence the game on the defensive end.

And Woody did make a key contribution on both ends of the floor tonight.

It's a height he will never reach.

To be honest, he was a little envious, but thinking that Woody was the talent he had discovered, he suddenly felt a kind of relief like an old father.

All kinds of emotions are intertwined, and he forgets that he is a loser tonight.

It doesn't matter anymore.

After beating the Pistons, the Heat returned to their home court, and Woody and Shaq suffered minor injuries in the following period, which affected the overall momentum of the Heat.

In the next seven games, they managed just 4 wins and 3 losses.

However, for a team that only lost one game in the first month of the new season, losing three games is not terrible, and they have the confidence to lose, especially in the East.

During this time, Wade continued to bring surprises, he averaged 23.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 6 assists per game in 7 games, and his shooting rate exceeded 45%!

Playing against the Pistons, he seems to have completely completed his evolution and has become the representative player of the new generation at the current No. 2 position.

So far, Pat Riley has become the biggest winner of the '03 draft!

Woody and Wade, two signings with two players of this quality, is enough to make all the insiders worship.

Pat Riley, "Gacha Dripper"!

After these 7 games, Christmas is known, and along with Christmas comes the NBA's special show "Christmas War".

Woody also has a Christmas war to fight this year, and it's a big concern across the country......

Heat vs Lakers! (End of chapter)
