Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 498: [A big miracle, sweeping to win the championship]

The two sides dedicated an alternative game to the fans. Only the first quarter was normal. Both sides played back and forth, and most of the time was the offensive performance of the Suns.

The Pistons defended against the next attack, and sometimes the defender hadn't received the ball yet, Ben Wallace was sent to the free throw line, and then showed people their incomparably poor free throw technique, giving the ball to the Suns to continue defending.

Ben Wallace made 34 free throws in a single game, hitting 10 and shooting 29.4%. In the late stage of the cut, when Daben was on the free throw line, his hands were a little trembling. Looking at the bloated expression, he seemed to want to explode in situ.

In the face of the "iron barrel formation", the Sun coaching team arranged extreme tactics. Guo Xu and Joe Johnson were responsible for singles shots in the periphery. The other three rushed to the frontcourt for rebounds and grabbed a second attack. Big Ben is a hug.

Big Ben's free throws were rotten like shit, and the offense performed better than pigs. Larry Brown still gave him 40 minutes of playing time. He made 2 of 4 shots, 10 of 34 free throws, 14 points, 9 rebounds, 1 steals and 1 block.

Everyone can see that the mentality of Big Ben's free throws collapsed, but Brown firmly believes that he can't do without him. Oku played 8 minutes and made him feel very panicked.

After a while, he didn't have a big book. He was uncomfortable, and he had a miracle.

The Pistons' offense was not very strong and the offense was intermittent. Outside players also missed the shot.

The Suns had a 103-71 victory over the Pistons by 32 points and made a good start.

After the game, Larry Brown expressed strong dissatisfaction at the press conference, thinking that the Sun's style of play made the game ugly.

D'Antoni just praised the Sun players and ignored Brown.

Guo Xu commented on his opponent. Brown said nothing. "Are we only scoring 90 points per game compared to the playoffs, and the team that defends opponents only have 85 points?"

Guo Xu smiled and said: "It's rare to see a person with a shooting percentage of less than 40%. Why don't we send him a free throw? Since we know he can't make a penalty, why don't the Pistons replace him? Mr. Brown stays so obvious 'S weakness is on the field and the opponent is not allowed to catch it? Why should the opponent listen to you? "

The overall defense of the Pistons is indeed strong. Double Wallace can prevent both the restricted area and the pick-and-roll. The efficiency of Nene and Stoudemire has dropped greatly. However, Guo Xu singled out Billups as an opportunity. There is no good way for the Pistons. They can only arrange for others to defend and assist.

Guo Xu scored 27 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 steals, leading the team to score in double figures.

In the second game, the Sun continued to use "Shark Tactics" against Big Ben, and strengthened the fight for rebounds in the frontcourt.

There are many people in the rotation inside the Sun, and they are not afraid of foul trouble at all, and everyone including Diop is good at grabbing rebounds and giving full play to his physical advantage.

This big game performed slightly better, with 8 free throws and 18% shooting, which exceeded the average of the individual playoffs, but for the Pistons, he is still very offensive.

Brown trusts Big Ben this time, allowing him to play 43 minutes, scoring 12 points, 14 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

The Sun's 122 joint defense system has an obvious effect against the Pistons. Four players shrunk the defensive penalty area, allowing the Pistons players to shoot from a position far away from the basket. Guo Xu alone entangled Billups with the most accurate three-pointers.

Brown has no good way of attacking. Except that the basic pick-and-roll is Hamilton's ball-less run, the "scalpel" is still a two-pointer. The Suns interfere with his shooting percentage in their respective areas.

The Pistons' long shot is not bad, 6 of 12 shots, shooting up to 50%, but Brown will not allow more shots. After leaving the 76ers, his habits have not changed. Who dares to make more three-pointers, who is his father ’s killer and his enemies. The shot closer to the basket has a higher shooting rate. That is the correct way to play and win. The way of the ball!

In the end, the Pistons shot 39.5% from the "right way to play" and 50% from the three-point range, and played a magical number.

The previous life Billups became a grassroots FMVP, and he has a direct relationship with Peyton and Fisher. His advantage is obvious. He is very sharp in the face of the Lakers guard breakthrough. Not only can he score and he can also make free throws very efficiently.

In the face of Guo Xu, Billups is not good, he can't get rid of his face, and after being entangled in the body, he can only turn back and shoot like Kassel. His hit rate is not as good as that of Kassel. If he doesn't play, he can't. The Pistons mainly rely on three points.

In position 1, Guo Xu made 11 of 20 shots, 3 of 7 3-pointers, 6 of 7 free throws, 31 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists; Billups made 6 of 15 shots, 2 of 3 3-pointers and free throws 3 of 4 with 17 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists.

The Suns went to the next city 94-76, with a total score of 2-0.

The Pistons did rely on the iron barrel array to reduce the Suns' scoring efficiency, but in the absence of a super scorer, the Pistons have a slow offensive rhythm and a low field goal percentage. If they can win the Suns, they will die.

Back in Detroit, Brown arranged Ben Wallace's free-throw training mission.

As a result, the Suns did not use the shark-cutting tactics in the third game. With a serious defense, the big free throws were practiced.

Brown: "Why don't your team play according to the routine?"

In fact, most teams deal with the Pistons in this way, and they can resist the big money if they just play personally. Unless he enters the basket to take the foul, his discus throwing hook and fateful shot can be completely ignored. .

The Suns' good inside line was Haslem, who made 6 of 8 shots, 2 of 2 free throws and scored 14 points and 10 rebounds.

The same non-draft player who entered the NBA is also a short inside player. Haslem proved himself that playing only 30 minutes is more beautiful than Big Ben.

Big Ben played 38 minutes, 3 of 9 shots, 1 of 4 free throws, 7 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. Since the Sun's offense was mainly due to players shooting from the outside and pulling inside to cover, he didn't even get a block.

95 to 88, the Suns lead 3 to 0.

The play of the two teams is in stark contrast. The Pistons made 5 of 15 3-pointers and shot 33.3%. The Suns made 16 of 39 3-pointers and shot 41%.

Guo Xu made 10 of 22 shots, 7 of 15 three-pointers, no free throws, 27 points, 3 rebounds, 13 assists and 3 steals.

The league does not want the finals to sweep, this time gave the Pistons some preferential treatment on the defensive end, Guo Xu, as the player with the most free throws in the regular season, did not even have a free throw.

It is a pity that the Pistons' offense is worse, trapped in the United defense shooting rate is too low, the players continue to share the ball every round according to the coaching arrangements, playing a very team, the overall shooting rate is only Stoudemire and Marion are flying, Haslem and Diop started off on defense. The Pistons relied on Double Wallace and Okur, who can't play 10 minutes per game. How could blue-collar veteran Elden Campbell be inside Take advantage?

The tactics of the Pistons in the fourth game have not changed, and continue to hit the restricted area. Brown's adjustment method is to let Oku not play for a minute, and firmly use the blue collar and the sun to fight.

The Suns started to cut Ben Wallace again. He played 35 minutes in the game. He made 2 of 5 shots and 4 of 14 free throws. He scored 8 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steals and 1 block.

The Pistons couldn't pull it off, and Rashid Wallace and Billups, who played well, also became blacksmiths. The team made 2 of 13 3-pointers.

After tinkering with the iron, the Suns won 101 to 72, and without any effort, they swept the championship in Detroit.

Brown: "On success or failure, life is magnificent, big ... big deal ... I will start again ... come again ..." (https :)
