"Oh? Beses wants me to be their spokesperson?"
Phoenix, on this day, just as Wang Shuo was thinking hard about how to defeat the Lakers "F4", he, who led the Suns to great success on the court, also received good news off the court.
As the oldest ice cream manufacturer in the United States, Bess hopes that Wang Shuo can represent them and jointly launch an ice cream called "Victory".
The amount of endorsement is not high, only 1.5 million US dollars in 3 years.
But as a spokesperson, Wang Shuo will no longer have to worry about eating ice cream in the next three years.
Interestingly, the reason why Beses found Wang Shuo this time was not only because his picture of him sitting on the sidelines having a cold drink during the game against the Cavaliers was widely praised by fans after the game, but there was also another very important reason. The reason is that, as a major ice cream manufacturer that originated in Philadelphia, many of the senior executives of this major ice cream manufacturer are Iverson fans.
In this regard, Wang Shuo was curious as to why the other party didn't directly ask Iverson for endorsement.
And the other party's answer was also very straightforward...
Compared with Iverson's endorsement fee, Wang Shuo's endorsement fee is obviously more cost-effective.
Hearing this, Wang Shuo let out a long sigh.
However, seeing that the other party was so upright, Wang Shuo did not embarrass them.
Anyway, Wang Shuo is not short of money. He has free ice cream, so why not eat it?
In fact, in the past two years, after Wang Shuo quickly became famous, he privately received many cooperation invitations from well-known international brands, but Wang Shuo rejected many of them without even bothering to talk.
As for the reason, it is also very simple.
In the past two years, Wang Shuo has made a lot of money from off-market investments alone. Why should he make trouble for himself in the future just for these endorsement fees?
Others can forget some things, but Wang Shuo really can't forget them.
In this life, Wang Shuo has many ways to make money. (Note ①)
Right now, leading this sun to complete Nirvana is the real big deal in Wang Shuo's eyes!
On November 1st, the Suns, sitting in America West Arena, faced the challenge of the Lakers' "F4".
How to describe this Lakers?
Overall, judging from their performance in the regular season opener, there is not much wrong with this Lakers "F4".
In the regular season opener, with Kobe Bryant absent for some reason, O'Neal and his new partners took down the Mavericks led by Nelson with little effort.
Right now, the Lakers' real trouble comes off the court.
This summer, when Kobe was flying to Eagle County, Colorado, to prepare for knee surgery, a 19-year-old female waiter accompanied Kobe to check in and showed him around the hotel. After that, she claimed that she was assaulted by Kobe. of sexual assault.
On July 1, Kobe, who had just undergone knee surgery, was interviewed by the local sheriff late that night.
And at a press conference held at the Staples Center on July 18, accompanied by his wife Vanessa, he admitted that he had indeed had sexual relations with the waitress.
But Kobe insisted that this was just a consensual accident.
In the NBA, it is no longer news for stars to pursue their beauty off the court.
For example, when Danzi hugged Wang Shuo's thigh in Washington, he often took Wang Shuo to spend time and wine together.
But I don’t know if it’s because Kobe didn’t give him enough money afterwards, or because he just wanted to have sex for free…
In short, at the moment, he has to constantly travel between the sidelines and the court, which has indeed been greatly affected in his game state.
As someone who has come before, the experienced "good big brother" O'Neal immediately gave Kobe some advice: "If it doesn't work, just give her a little more hush money!"
O'Neal didn't want Kobe's negative news off the court to affect his performance on the court.
Because O'Neal, who will turn 32 on March 6 next year, is extremely eager to win a championship to increase his bargaining chips when negotiating a contract extension with the Lakers in the future.
But what O'Neal never expected was that his "all-powerful little brother" would give him a severe blow during an interview with reporters.
Although the original English meaning of Kobe at the time was probably that Shaq had made the same mistake, in any case, this phrase "Shaq did it too" that was widely praised by later generations did affect the relationship between Kobe and O'Neal to a great extent. .
According to the recollections of many Lakers players afterwards, O'Neal was so angry that he almost wanted to challenge Kobe to a duel and wanted to punch Kobe to death.
In New York, Stern has been really worried about these off-court trivial matters recently.
Because here, Phoenix finally helped Iverson get back on track, but over there, Kobe gave Stern a hard job at the slightest disagreement.
The impact of the "Eagle County Incident" is destined to be far-reaching.
Because Vanessa couldn't bear the torture of public opinion during Kobe's legal battle, this incident also indirectly caused Vanessa, who was pregnant at the time, to miscarry.
One black and the other, Kobe is really sorry for Vanessa in this matter.
But if you insist on saying that the "victim" of the "Eagle County Incident" was an innocent, simple little girl, and use this to attack Kobe, then you really underestimate this "victim".
Because according to subsequent DNA test results, the "victim" also had relationships with multiple men shortly after having sex with Kobe.
As for why she singled out Kobe Bryant among so many men she had sex with to sue?
In fact, to put it bluntly, as O'Neill said, everything is caused by money.
On the court, Kobe, who played for the Lakers tonight despite huge public pressure, was booed by the fans as soon as he appeared on the court.
In addition, compared to the chatting and laughing with O'Neal last season, Kobe is obviously a little bit lonely and lonely this season.
Before the game started, except for Devin George who took the initiative to communicate with Kobe and covered his mouth for a few minutes, the other Lakers players kept a certain distance from Kobe.
At the scene, after the warm-up, the game officially started.
Tonight’s starting lineups for the two teams are as follows:
Lakers: O'Neal, Malone, George, Kobe, Payton.
Suns: Chandler, Stoudemire, Marion, Bell, Iverson.
In the 1996/1997 season, "Glove", who was at his peak at the time, bullied Iverson so badly on the court.
Later, as he grew older, Iverson would only retaliate against him on the court.
In the original historical line, in the 2003/04 season, Iverson even had a 39-0 defeat against Payton.
In the center of the field, after a jump ball, the Sun has the ball.
At this moment, looking at old Payton, Iverson's big and smart eyes seemed to be asking Payton:
Yes, can you still eat?
Boom, boom!
On the court, after just one face-to-face encounter, Payton Sr. felt like his knees were going off!
Fortunately, Kobe Bryant slid over in time and successfully delayed Iverson's advance.
But Iverson, with his sharp eyes and quick hands, immediately gave the ball to Bell.
Uh-huh!
From the wing, Bell made a three-pointer, 0-3.
On CCTV, Director Zhang complained: "Payton once said to Hill when he was young, crossing you is like crossing the road in the early morning. But tonight, Iverson passed him, even easier than crossing the road in the early morning!"
Payton, who has always liked to talk trash, was really powerless in front of Iverson tonight.
On the one hand, in addition to the friendship he forged with Iverson through no fight or acquaintance, his little black brother was basically capable of attacking him every time he faced him. Just make a heavy move.
The NBA in the first decade of the 21st century is both beautiful and interesting to watch.
That is, stars with better relationships off the court often want to beat their opponents to death when they compete on the court.
So, is it possible to say that Chris Paul is likable?
Look, will I not dirty him because of his relationship with James?
joke!
When it comes to dirty things, I have always treated them equally!
On the court, come back, the Lakers attack.
Tonight, the Lakers did not start a triangle from the start.
Instead, Malone was promoted to a high position to act as a wall for Payton.
Although it is true that this Lakers can do without the triangle offense, in Wang Shuo's eyes, this is somewhat putting the cart before the horse.
Because no matter how much gas Payton and Malone still have in the tank, they will not be able to put enough pressure on the Suns like O'Neal and Kobe on the court.
In the high post, after the ball bounced out, Malone took a pass from Payton and made a bold move.
This is Malone's specialty. Under the appearance of a muscular man, fighting and retreating is his true face.
In Wang Shuo's previous life, everyone thought that Garnett only knew how to fight with iron and blood, but little did they know that in his career, Garnett's mid-range shooting percentage and long-range mid-range shooting percentage combined were only about 54%. The two statistics add up to 59.7% of the time. In front of Malone, he is a younger brother!
However, no matter how good you are at your unique skills, you will eventually fail.
On the court, Chandler swiped the board angrily.
Come back and the Suns attack.
When retreating, O'Neill finally discovered that Wang Shuo was definitely sent by God to deal with him.
Because compared to the Wizards' transition offense, which is still a bit lazy, the Suns' fast break is outrageous!
In desperation, Devin George, who saw that only Kobe among the four big brothers was retreating in place, hurriedly pulled Iverson and took the initiative to apply for a foul.
At this time, O'Neal, who had just ran back to his own half, looked at Wang Shuo, who was eating donuts with Barkley on the Suns bench, with a puzzled look.
It was different from the time when I wanted to beat Wang Shuo to death.
At this moment, O'Neal doesn't understand...
Why did these opponents he had beaten before become so powerful after being combined by Wang Shuo.
In the new season, Tyson Chandler, who made the Chicago Bulls extremely annoyed in just two games, had never even looked at him seriously when O'Neal met him before.
Because in O'Neal's eyes, hitting Chandler was like playing. As long as he exerted a little force, Chandler would lie down on his own and let him control him.
Not to mention Marion and Stoudemire, a pair of stupid young men. Last season, when O'Neal beat these two brothers, it can only be described as a fistfight.
And Iverson.
Although in the Finals that year, Iverson won a victory for the 76ers at Staples.
But then, didn't O'Neal prove it?
No matter how strong Iverson is, you can only sit back and watch Shaq destroy your insider.
As for Laga Bale...
To be honest, until the start of this game, O'Neal didn't even know that there was such a number one figure in the NBA.
But it is such a sun.
After being combined by Wang Shuo, it only took the first two rounds to make O'Neal break out in a cold sweat.
On the court, after the Suns took a side kick, Iverson held the ball.
Stoudemire moved up to a high position to create a wall for Iverson.
Payton, who has extensive defensive experience, successfully predicted Iverson's breakthrough route.
Then......
He was given over by Iverson.
On the wing, Kobe, who was once again covering up Payton, was also a little angry at this time, and roared at Payton: "Go and cover my man!"
Hearing this, Payton hurriedly slid in front of Bell and successfully closed the loophole on this side.
But at this moment, before Malone could teach Stoudemire with his iron elbow, on the other side, Marion, who used Chandler's cover to rush towards the Lakers penalty area, completed his lift-off performance:
After receiving a pass from Iverson, Marion made an alley-oop and hit a one-handed dunk!
I dare not say that this ball was caused by big brother O'Neal's failure to handle the ball well. Devin George quickly raised his hands and took the blame, fully demonstrating what emotional intelligence is!
Come back and the Lakers attack.
Still didn't play the triangle offense.
But just when Payton was about to start another pick-and-roll with Malone, Kobe suddenly emerged from the wing and glared at Payton.
But Payton ignored Kobe and passed Malone to the ball to O'Neal, who was sitting in the penalty area.
On the sidelines, Wang Shuo felt that if the Lakers continued to play like this, the team would explode within a few games.
Although "Zen Master" is very good at managing the locker room...
But compared with the previous Lakers who only had to deal with "OK" relationships, tonight's Lakers situation is obviously much more complicated.
Payton, who wants to win a championship while getting the last big contract of his career, used his actions on the court to prove how much he doesn't want to play the triangle offense.
Malone, who only wanted to win the championship, didn't care that much, but he and Payton, who had a better relationship with O'Neal, somewhat ignored Kobe's feelings on the court.
And what about O'Neal?
As the initiator of this "Old Brothers Basketball", with Kobe's words "Shaq did it too", he has broken with Kobe, and he obviously does not have enough ability to deal with the internal problems of this Lakers.
So now comes the problem.
How did this "Lakers F4" reach the finals in Wang Shuo's memory when it had so many internal problems?
The answer is: all based on hard power, without any moisture!
No matter how much you complain about this Lakers.
Neither can change their absolute advantage in a single position.
In the three-second zone, O'Neal pushed away Chandler's defense with a simple touch.
This nimble fat man successfully scored the first two points of the night for the Lakers.
After scoring this goal, O'Neal did not dare to neglect and quickly retreated to the Lakers half.
Then when he arrived, he found...
Malone is already preparing to serve the baseline ball.
O'Neill: "..."
No, why are you taking it easy to make fun of me?
Lakers generals: What can we do? We are also desperate, okay?
On the sidelines, looking at the old arms and legs of the Lakers on the court, "Zen Master" also experienced a subtle change in his mentality at this moment.
Because he always feels...
Wang Shuo seems to have a grudge against the Lakers.
No, in terms of your team building ideas, is it necessary to target the Lakers like this?
You can forget about adding a bunch of hopeless swingmen to the Wizards.
Why do you want to create such a fast offensive team in Phoenix?
Wang Shuo certainly has no grudge against the Lakers.
It's just that the Suns' quick transition offense really beats the Lakers.
In the first quarter of the game, in order to prevent the Suns from fast break, the "Zen Master" copied the previous foul methods of the Spurs and Cavaliers without any new ideas.
Seeing this, Wang Shuo was not in a hurry.
It wasn't until the Lakers were full of fouls that Wang Shuo called Iverson to the sidelines during a dead ball.
After a few simple whispers, the US-West Arena immediately entered Iverson's "one-point shot" performance time.
On the sidelines, on the Lakers bench, watching Iverson walking to the free throw line again and again, "Zen Master" hurriedly asked his think tank: "How should we adjust to stop the Suns' fast break and Allen Iverson’s unbridled impact?”
The think tank suggested: "It's better to replace Gary. Although Derek can't guard Allen Iverson, at least he has enough physical strength to not be unable to retreat."
"Zen Master" nodded and said, "That's what I meant."
Then, the think tank continued to offer advice: "We will definitely not be able to defeat this Suns by relying on defense alone, we have to attack like we did when we played the Mavericks.
After Derrick comes on the court, he can first use Shaq's advantage in the low post to get us some points, and then wait until the second quarter before we let Kobe lead the team. "
Jackson smiled calmly and said: "That's what I'm planning to do."
On the court, in the middle of the first quarter, with Fisher's appearance, the Lakers immediately stopped their decline on the court.
To be honest, even in that round of the Finals with the Wizards, Fisher was a waste in the eyes of Lakers fans.
However, compared to Payton who is not willing to play the triangle offense, when he plays, the Lakers can find the offensive rhythm they are familiar with.
Of course, Fisher couldn't completely restrict Iverson.
But now that he is full of energy, he can at least keep up with Iverson and make it more difficult for Iverson to score on the court.
In addition, no matter how fast the Suns' fast break is, it is impossible to succeed every time.
After Fisher came on the court, as the Lakers were able to return Kobe, Fisher, and George as soon as possible, Malone and O'Neal had ample time to return to defense.
In the last game, Chandler had just found confidence in front of James. In this game, he was completely abused by O'Neal.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
When do you think solar energy will beat the Cavaliers again...
Chandler will have a contract year next year, and he also wants a big contract, okay?
Woohoo, the first day I miss LeBron James!
In the first quarter of the game, the two teams each played well for half a quarter, and the score in the single quarter was 30 to 35.
In the second quarter of the game, "Zen Master" withdrew Malone and O'Neal, leaving George, who usually had a better relationship with Kobe on the team, and Fisher, who had a good relationship with "OK", on the court to assist Kobe.
Compared with the starting lineup, the only one in the Suns' second lineup who can match up with Kobe is Diaw.
Wang Shuo did not let Bell stay on the court, because in order to fill Iverson's position, Bell's physical energy consumption was also very high tonight.
As a result, Kobe, who had been holding back for a whole quarter tonight, finally found an opportunity to vent.
Thanks to Kobe's desperate play, the Lakers even took the lead early in this quarter.
But Wang Shuo was not anxious at all.
Because no matter how good Kobe's touch is tonight, Wang Shuo believes that someone will guard him next.
In the second half of the second quarter, as the two sides gradually returned to their main players, the Lakers' offense immediately became constipated again.
On the court, Payton, who noticed Kobe's good touch, didn't want to pass the ball to him because of the grudge between Kobe and O'Neal.
Just because, when Payton doesn't want to play the triangle offense, it is difficult for Kobe to get singles opportunities under the triangle offense system.
In fact, Phil Jackson also saw it.
If they want to deal with this Suns, the Lakers have to let Fisher play more.
But here comes the problem...
Do you dare to put Payton on the bench, who is not as willing to be a tool for his teammates on the court as he will be in the future?
Wake up, the regular season has just begun. You can't blow up the team's locker room just after the regular season begins, right?
Moreover, due to the great physical exertion of defending Iverson, it is impossible for Fisher to play on the court all the time.
In the second quarter of the game, the two teams still played well for half a quarter each.
At halftime, the score between the two teams was 59 to 65.
After the intermission, the Suns' real killer move came tonight.
On the court, as Iverson entered the "let go" mode, under the escort of Stoudemire and Marion, the Suns passed a wave of flow in this quarter and directly opened the score with the Lakers!
Amid the constant internal friction of the Lakers, O'Neal began to gradually lose strength after playing the first half of the third quarter tonight.
Kobe, who had a fierce attack in the second quarter, was in better condition, but he kept having to fill in for Payton, which affected his shooting touch to a certain extent.
If "OK" fails to open up the situation, this Lakers will not be able to compete with the Suns.
Huh?
Don’t the Lakers still have Malone and Payton?
when--!
Malone, who failed to hit a single shot in four hard-fought matches tonight, if Payton dared to pass the ball to him despite Kobe's death glare, he would probably have to have a fight with Kobe after the game.
when--!
Payton, who also had a bad touch tonight, dared to waste scoring opportunities without Kobe's permission like he did in that round, then Kobe would have to punch him in the waist before the game was over.
At the critical moment, Fisher, who has been unable to breathe properly in the past two years, can help this Lakers find a rhythm of the game.
However, how should the Lakers, who have dug a huge hole for themselves in the third quarter, fill the hole in the fourth quarter?
On the court, after three quarters, it was 79 to 99.
In front of the TV, no one dares to say that the Suns were lucky to defeat the Spurs and the Cavaliers.
Because who would have thought that before the start of the new season, the Lakers, who were considered the only favorites to win the championship, would be so embarrassed by the Suns in this game?
In the early stages of the final quarter, Jackson left O'Neal, Malone, George, Kobe and Fisher on the court.
The "Zen Master" who knew that the Lakers had to quickly recover the score in the early stages of the final quarter could not care about Payton's face at this time.
But after feeling cold for a whole quarter, Kobe failed to use his wild swings to regain the situation for the Lakers like he did in the second quarter.
Because in addition to his own touch problems, Wang Shuo also changed the personnel positioning in the final quarter of the game and switched to Marion to guard him.
In the low post, facing the "hacker" who is tall and long-armed, if Kobe wants to complete the shot, he must make it more difficult for him to lean back.
As a result, after Kobe Bryant's wave of "four ups and three irons", the Lakers completely lost hope of winning this night.
Seeing O'Neal gasping for air and wasting away his energy on the court, "Zen Master" withdrew all the team's main players with 7 minutes and 45 seconds left in this quarter.
In the end, the score of this game was 99 to 124.
Iverson made 8 of 18 shots from the field, including 1 of 4 three-pointers and 17 of 21 free throws. In total, he scored 34 points, 3 rebounds, and 8 assists for the team.
Stoudemire and Marion scored 18 and 20 points respectively.
For the Lakers, Kobe, who was accurate first and then shot 11 of 25, including free throws and three-pointers, scored a team-high 29 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 assist for the Lakers.
The "Shark" who performed brilliantly in the first quarter, but was later drained of water in the swimming pool due to the internal friction of the Lakers, made 8 of 11 shots and 4 of 6 free throws. He scored 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 free throws for the Lakers. Blocked shots (all blocked by Iverson).
Malone played 37 minutes in this game, but his statistics were quite eye-catching. He made 0 of 4 shots and 5 of 6 free throws. He only scored 5 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists.
Old Payton is also unbearable to watch, because even Iverson failed to beat him. He made 3 of 9 shots in this game, including free throws and three-pointers, and only got 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 4 assists.
But you may not believe it.
When the blame was passed after the game, many Lakers fans who only looked at the post-game data actually passed the blame to Fisher, who was the only one who could leave the game with his head held high.
The reason is that Fisher's "waste" image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In addition, from the data point of view, he only scored 5 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in this game.
After the game, all the Lakers generals who were in a bad mood after losing had no intention of being interviewed.
At the press conference, when asked about the negative news about Kobe Bryant off the court and the conflict between him and O'Neal, "Zen Master" also chose to remain silent.
On the Suns side, when asked why the Suns could perform so well in the new season, Wang Shuo said with a surprised look on his face: "Don't you know that I am the head coach of this team?"
Reporters: "..."
The next day, the Lakers, who were troubled by the negative news about Kobe Bryant, began to be questioned by many people after losing to the Suns.
Some people think that judging from the game between the Lakers and the Suns, the Lakers cannot be called a championship-level team at all.
Some people also believe that exposing the team's current problems early is a good thing for the Lakers, because it means they will have enough time to solve these problems.
Looking back at the Suns, compared with when Iverson was just traded to Phoenix...
After only three games, Suns fans have fallen deeply in love with "183" who can always attack the team in the game.
But in the new season, the surprises the Suns bring to people are more than just that.
On the 5th, 7th, 10th, and 12th, after successively defeating the Jazz, Grizzlies, Hawks, and Warriors, compared to the Suns' seven-game winning streak at the beginning of the new season, what shocked the world even more was that in In these seven games, the Suns scored more than 110 points in each game!
On the 5th, in Utah Plateau, facing the rebuilding Jazz, the Suns scored 114 points in a single game.
Returning to America West Arena on the 7th to face the Grizzlies, who were also rebuilding, the Suns scored 137 points in a single game.
On the 10th, they continued to sit at home. Facing the Hawks, who were looking confused and waiting for their savior, the Suns scored another 128 points in a single game.
On the 12th, they went to Golden State to challenge the currently terrible Warriors. The Suns scored 135 points in a single game.
Although, the Suns' four recent opponents all lack gold content.
But compared with the declining defensive strength of the NBA in the future, being able to play such beautiful offensive basketball in the NBA of this era, the offensive storm set off by the Suns in the new season has already attracted a vote of neutral fans in the market.
On November 14, the Suns went to Houston and had another beautiful victory on the road.
In this game that attracted much attention from the Chinese audience, the Suns lost the suspense in just three quarters.
Xiao Yao, who has evolved again in the summer, once again made Chandler nostalgic for his "Brother LeBron" in this game.
In the whole game, Xiao Yao made 11 of 19 shots, including free throws, and scored a total of 27 points and 11 rebounds for Aerospace City.
Francis also had 26 points and 7 assists.
But just relying on Boss Fu and Xiao Yao, Aerospace City couldn't control the Suns' tough guys who wantonly ravaged every inch of their position during the game.
The score at the end of this game was 121 to 100.
After the game, Jeff Van Gundy, who replaced Tomjanovich, who retired due to physical reasons, as the head coach of Houston XX this season, couldn't figure it out...
Why did the iron-blooded defense line he carefully built for Space City this summer look like paper in front of the sun.
But that's okay.
Because when Van Gundy becomes a commentator in the future and watches the player battle data a few more times, he will understand.
Trivia.
Although he lost more than he won in the duel with Mr. Fu.
But Alfredo is definitely Iverson's lucky star.
Because in Wang Shuo's memory, Iverson's two highest-scoring games in his career were both played against Alfred.
One game was 60 points and one game was 58 points.
On November 15, after returning to Phoenix overnight, the Suns faced what Wang Shuo saw as the first real test they faced this season.
In the first game against the Spurs, because the Spurs obviously didn't know enough about the new Suns at the time, in Wang Shuo's view, winning that game did not mean that the Suns were stronger than the Spurs.
Then, after easily defeating the Cavaliers, the game against the Lakers also had no reference value in Wang Shuo's eyes.
Because as an "Old Lake Honey", Wang Shuo knows very well how much energy "OK" can burst out in desperate moments.
Therefore, in Wang Shuo's view, the team's home game against the Detroit Pistons on the evening of the 15th was the key game to test the quality of this Suns team.
At America West Arena, after the warm-up, the big screen immediately showed the rosters of both teams for tonight's game.
Pistons: Ben, Rasheed Wallace, Prince, Ray Allen, Billups.
Suns: Chandler, Stoudemire, Marion, Bell, Iverson.
Huh?
Wait a minute!
Where did this roaring Pistons come from?
What about Raheem, whom they previously traded Milicic and the Grizzlies for?
Where did it go?
Answer: This Roaring God was acquired by the Pistons in exchange for Raheem shortly after the start of the regular season.
Although the trajectory of history has shifted...
But this thing of fate is really wonderful!
Shortly after the start of the new season, after using Raheem for two games, Carlisle quickly discovered a big problem with this Pistons:
That is, at the critical moment, it seems that the only thing the team can rely on is Billups' sudden attack.
Often, as long as the Pistons' opponents block Ray Allen, the Pistons will easily attack.
This is not to say that Raheem, the star power forward's personal ability is not good, but after feeling that he is not the right choice for the Pistons' fourth position, Carlisle immediately set his sights on Portland's forward. Just roared Tianzun.
Although in terms of success rate, Wallace's straight-arm pull-up is not as outrageous as people say.
But at the critical moment, this guy's hard-hitting ability is what the Pistons urgently need.
From Carlisle's point of view, it doesn't matter if Wallace's success rate of hard tackles is lower. As long as he can make hard tackles and cooperate with the Pistons' defense, the Pistons will not be as passive as before.
Even though Carlisle's defensive accomplishments are not as good as those of Larry Brown, as a head coach with a more balanced offense and defense, in a sense, this is only the Pistons' Five Tigers who have joined Ray Allen, but under his leadership Become stronger.
On the outside, except for Ben, the other four Pistons can throw.
And the throw is more efficient and simpler than in the Larry Brown era.
Inside, with Ben in charge and Roaring Heavenly Lord assisting from the side, except for O'Neal and Yao Ming, who really can't be solved by Ben, it will be difficult for any team to get what they want inside when facing this Pistons.
In addition, after supplementing the team's hard-hit ability at critical moments, the Pistons, who had a balanced offense and defense during the stalemate stage, were not only able to defend, but they were also able to attack!
And on the pitch...
With Chandler jumping down to open the scoring for the Suns.
This night, the Pistons quickly gave Wang Shuo a little shock of the "Five Pistons"...
…
