In the third quarter of the game, the Pistons took the lead.
After Billups dribbled the ball past half court, Prince and Wallace pulled to a 45-degree angle on the left and the left corner respectively.
Tonight, the Pistons took full advantage of their range advantage and formed three-on-three situations on several occasions.
With this ball, after the Pistons set up their attack formation, Ray Allen took the lead in moving up to the high post on the right side to serve as a wall for Billups.
Billups, who was responsible for holding the ball, advanced along the right side at a 45-degree angle. Ben quickly moved toward the center and successfully crossed between Marion and Bell.
Upon seeing this, Billups immediately passed the ball back to Ray Allen, who had already run to the left side of the top arc.
On the Suns side, Diaw moved laterally in time and successfully blocked Ray Allen's gun.
But at the same time, Diaw also had to miss the defense against Prince.
The "Little Prince" cut to the basket, received an assist from Ray Allen and scored a layup.
Similar to the Pistons' first attack tonight, this is also a tactic initiated by players in positions 1, 2, and 5.
However, this strategy is slightly different in details.
And in the future, it will also have a louder name that, like the Spanish pick-and-roll, will make Chinese fans "shudder":
- Pistol tactics.
There are many variations of the pistol tactic on the basketball court, but generally speaking, it is still a tactic that relies on the pick-and-roll quality of the 5th position and requires players at the 1st and 2nd positions to have certain shooting abilities in order to be launched.
On the basketball court, no matter how good the tactics are, they need to be executed by the players on the court.
On the Suns bench, at this moment, Wang Shuo had to sigh with emotion. Carlisle and Stotts had indeed led the Pistons to a whole new level.
In the NBA, even Wang Shuo, who stands on the shoulders of giants, has his weaknesses.
Because if it weren't for Mike Brown and Spoelstra, the quality of the Suns' defense would definitely drop significantly.
As a coach whose abilities will be stronger the more cards he can play, Rick Carlisle also has his flaws and shortcomings.
For example, the future Dallas "Mavericks" were criticized by Doncic fans for their low tactical efficiency and poor tactical execution.
In fact, throughout Carlisle's coaching career, it is not difficult to find that rather than leading a team built around a certain superstar, he has always been better at coaching a "multi-core lineup" like the Pistons tonight.
In the NBA, the so-called "multi-core lineup" does not necessarily refer to how many superstars you have in your team.
Rather, your team has a large number of players with strong tactical execution capabilities and personal styles that meet the coach's tactical needs.
Historically, before the "Auburn Hills Palace Incident", the Pacers who were once led by Carlisle were like this. In the future, the same will be true for the Dallas Mavericks who will use their tactical show to make the scalp of the young James numb.
However, once you let Carlisle coach a team where a single star needs to eat up a lot of team resources, he will not be able to play.
Because when a single star eats up too many team resources, Carlisle can't use his tactical skills.
Stotts complements him well in that regard.
Because contrary to Carlisle, Stotts is a coach who knows how to use superstars.
On the court, come back, the Suns attack.
After Diaw and Marion sank into the bottom corners on the left and right sides respectively, Bell moved up to a high position to create a wall for Iverson.
Iverson lowered his center of gravity and started to rush inside the Pistons along Bell's pick-and-roll.
Seeing this, Ben wanted to move laterally to delay Iverson, but was blocked by Stoudemire who was ambushing near the free throw line.
In the right corner, Wallace must make up for it at this time.
But the moment he made up for it, Iverson immediately passed the ball to Marion in the right corner.
After getting the ball, Marion fired quickly.
Uh-huh!
55 to 55!
To most ordinary basketball fans, the Suns' goal seemed to be just a simple breakout.
But in fact, this ball is also an advanced variant of the Spanish pick-and-roll.
Iverson's assault ability determines that when he launches an assault, he will inevitably attract the attention of two opposing players at a certain moment.
Therefore, the moment Bell was raised to a high position to form a wall and prepare to bounce out, Stoudemire also had the opportunity to fall to the free throw line and set up a jam in advance.
In tonight's game, the Suns and Pistons took off-ball coverage to the extreme.
The only difference is that the Pistons take advantage of their range.
The Suns, on the other hand, took advantage of Iverson's assault ability and Stoudemire's mobility advantage.
TNT TV station, Van Gundy praised: "Although as an academic coach, Rick Carlisle fully demonstrated his coaching talent to people tonight, at this moment, I still want to praise the Suns.
Because Wang used Allen Iverson's personal ability to create, in my mind, the best NBA team this season! "
On the sidelines, Rivers rarely agreed: "Allen Iverson is indeed the number one player in the NBA."
Van Gundy ignored Rivers and continued: "But in terms of lineup thickness, in this series, in my eyes, the Pistons have the advantage."
Rivers scoffed: "I don't think the Suns, who have Allen Iverson, are inferior to the Pistons in terms of lineup thickness. In my opinion, the only star players for this Pistons are Ben Wallace and Ray Allen. "
On the sidelines, Smith, who had put up with Rivers for a long time tonight, finally waited for the opportunity to use his strengths and smiled: "According to coach Doc Rivers...
Then presumably, the Washington Wizards, who have Pau Gasol and Gilbert Arenas, as well as many championship players, are stronger than the Pistons and Suns tonight in terms of lineup thickness, right? "
After a pause, Smith deliberately asked Van Gundy: "Hey, Jeff, why didn't we see the Washington Wizards appear in this year's Finals?"
Van Gundy, who had also tolerated Rivers for a long time, replied: "I heard that when they led 2-0 in the first round of the playoffs, the 76ers who lost Allen Iverson lost four games in a row and were reversed. eliminated."
Rivers: "..."
At this moment, the red-faced Rivers wanted to argue for himself.
But who told him to dig a hole for himself just now?
Well, you can't even beat the 76ers without Iverson...
How do you have the nerve to sit with a tactician of Van Gundy's level?
On the court, the Pistons attack.
This time, Marion prevented the Pistons from launching tactics by predicting in advance.
The pinnacle "hacker" truly deserves his reputation.
On both ends of the court, you can see him everywhere tonight.
Facing the Suns' "one-to-four combination", now it's time to test the Pistons' ability to solve the problem.
On the left, under Billups's eyes, Wallace hurriedly pulled out to catch the ball.
when!
Unfortunately, the ball was directed towards Stoudemire and Wallace failed to make the shot.
On the sidelines, Wang Shuo, on the Suns' bench, saw this and said meaningfully: "10 points, we must establish a 10-point lead in this quarter!"
Hearing this, the three of Buckley all looked at Wang Shuo in unison.
Because if they remember well, when formulating the battle plan for this series, Wang Shuo personally told them that since there are many people in this Pistons who can shoot three-pointers, this also means that the Pistons are in the game. His ability to chase points is very strong.
During the regular season, this Pistons had accomplished the feat of coming back from nearly 20 points behind against the Spurs and Nets.
Therefore, at this moment, all three Barkleys know that 10 points...
This is by no means a score that guarantees the Suns will win tonight.
However, the three Barkleys also know very well that if the Suns cannot establish a 10-point lead in this quarter, then the Suns will be completely passive when entering the final quarter of the game.
Because tonight, after using extreme resource exchange to gain valuable physical time for Iverson, the third quarter of the game was the one in which the Suns invested the most resources in this G1 game!
Although a basketball game is never a simple math problem.
Although the situation of the next game is likely to change with the outbreak of a certain player on the two teams.
Although anything can happen on the court before the game clock reaches zero.
But as the team's head coach, this is the final calculation Wang Shuo can make for this game.
On the basketball court, what is the so-called 100%?
No matter how good a head coach is, he can only increase his team's winning rate through tactical arrangements and personnel rotation.
After all, the outcome of a game depends on the players on the field.
On the court, the Suns' offensive round.
From the high post on the left, after noticing that the Pistons had successfully blocked the free throw line, Iverson immediately signaled Stoudemire to pull him in front of him.
Billups didn't dare to neglect, and rushed to meet Stoudemire's pick-and-roll in advance.
But just as Billups stepped forward to meet him, Iverson also switched the basketball to his left hand in an instant and headed towards the Pistons' hinterland at a 45-degree angle on the left side.
Accelerate while decelerating, and accelerate again while accelerating.
With a kick of the accelerator, Iverson went straight to the Pistons basket!
On the side, Wallace once again made up for Iverson.
The timing he chose to fill in this time was very subtle. Once Iverson chooses to jump and pass the ball, a mistake is likely to be waiting for the Suns.
But how could Iverson pass the ball at this time?
Take off, lean down, hug the basketball tightly, avoid Wallace, pull the lever and shoot!
Bang, swish!
On CCTV, Coach Zhang said with emotion: "Iverson is great here. No matter if there is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire in front of you, he dares to hold the ball and rush in!"
On the court, after finishing this offense for the Suns, Iverson immediately turned his head and looked at the Suns' bench.
Because there is the source of his endless confidence.
At this time, on the sidelines, Barkley discovered that compared to those inspiring words, Wang Shuo's calm expression was the best bowl of chicken soup for the soul of the Suns players on the court at this moment.
Because at this moment, every Suns player firmly believes that no matter what kind of difficulties they face, no matter what kind of quagmire is ahead, this man can lead them out!
"Mike, let Tyson and Robert get ready to warm up. I will replace them at any time."
"Eric, remind Boris when the ball is dead later. He is defending too far outside now. We have to pay attention to the Pistons' three-pointers, but we cannot directly expose the core of our defense to them!"
At the Palace of Auburn Hills, looking at Wang Shuo who had not rested for a moment tonight, Buckley took the initiative and asked: "Is there anything you need my help with?"
Wang Shuo nodded and said: "Charles, prepare towels and sports drinks. I will request a timeout in the next round. We need to let Allen take a break!"
On the court, with 6 minutes and 42 seconds left in the third quarter, the scoreboard read 67 to 63.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Although the Suns had the advantage in the first half of the quarter, the members of the Suns coaching staff knew that the situation at this moment was still not optimistic.
"Tyson, look here, this is where the piston Double-Drag starts.
When Ben Wallace is on the court, their No. 4 Rasheed Wallace will first set a pick-and-roll here for their No. 1 position.
So I need you to help Aaron with a delay here first.
Then you need to turn around right away and go with Shaun to guard their second pick-and-roll on this side of the ball from Ben Wallace to Rasheed Wallace. "Wang Shuo said to Chandler on the sidelines before preparing to replace Chandler.
After hearing this, Chandler nodded and said, "Don't worry, boss, I promise to complete the mission."
Wang Shuo patted Chandler on the shoulder and said: "Remember, Tyson, if the Pistons replace Memet Okur, then after you complete the first delay, you must remind Sean loudly and Tell him clearly that when you guard the Pistons' second pick-and-roll together, who will guard their pass and who will guard their outside shot.
Because in the entire defensive formation, only your position can observe the entire process of the Pistons' tactics. "
Chandler nodded and said: "Boss, I promise that I will remind Sean at the loudest voice."
On the court, after the dead ball, the Suns made substitutions, Diaw came off and Chandler came on.
"Our substitution this time is to defend for offense, right?" Barkley laughed on the sidelines.
Wang Shuo nodded and said: "Yes, Charles. Because the Pistons' defensive strength is always online tonight, so if we cannot rely on offense to quickly open the score, we must first improve our defense."
On the court, the Pistons have the ball.
On the Suns bench, watching Chandler quickly build a second line of defense with Marion after completing Billups' delay, Barkley was extremely looking forward to the Pistons' attack.
Don't come in! No entry allowed! Pop it out for me!
However, contrary to expectations, Rasheed Wallace hit a valuable pull-up three-pointer for the Pistons against Stoudemire's defense.
"Can this guy get in?" Buckley thought angrily.
Come back, the sun has the ball.
At the beginning of this quarter, Stoudemire, who changed to a feint attack, went up to a high position to catch the ball, preparing to cooperate with Iverson's thugs.
Since the beginning of the third quarter, Stoudemire's offensive proportion has been greatly reduced, so this time, Ben habitually moved a step ahead in the direction where Iverson was preparing to attack.
Seeing this, the clever Stoudemire immediately turned around with the ball and broke into the hinterland of the Pistons.
Fortunately, Wallace assisted in defense and blocked Stoudemire's advance route in advance.
Can......
Just when Wallace was about to cause Stoudemire to foul someone with the ball, who would have thought that Stoudemire had already slowed down in advance!
Sitting on the sidelines, Garnett felt like he was watching a horror movie tonight!
Because do you dare to believe that Stoudemire, who was educated as a rag doll by him last year...
Has it evolved to this extent in just one year?
At this moment, in Garnett's eyes, he has regarded Stoudemire as an opponent of the same level as him.
Perhaps, his super power forward realm is not perfect enough...
But considering that Stoudemire is only 21 years old at this moment, Garnett does not dare to underestimate him at all.
On the court, Stoudemire, who slowed down early, passed the ball to Marion, who was ambushing in the left corner.
when!
Unfortunately, Marion failed to hit the three-pointer.
On the sidelines, after sighing with regret, Garnett looked back at Pierce and Tracy McGrady and said, "I think I already like this kid."
Although he was tortured by Stoudemire's old-school style of play in the regular season, in Garnett's view, the "iron-blooded" and "cruel" in this kid...
It’s just like my younger self!
At the same time, on the Suns bench, Barkley also began to become anxious because the Suns had not scored in this quarter.
"Charles, calm down. If the players see you like this, your emotions will interfere with their game on the court." Wang Shuo turned to Barkley and said.
Upon hearing this, Barkley immediately showed a funny expression that seemed to be crying but not crying, and seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Wang, how do you maintain a normal mind at a time like this?" Buckley asked curiously.
After thinking for a while, Wang Shuo said: "No one can really maintain a normal mind. But when I am impatient, I will tell myself, if you are impatient now, then you will not be able to do anything well. "
In fact, Wang Shuo did not tell Buckley the truth.
Because his normal heart was clearly revealed by watching games in his previous life.
After all, as long as you experience your favorite team or player and lose enough times at critical moments, then even if you want to have ups and downs of emotions, your heart that has been tempered as hard as steel will hardly be able to. fluctuation.
On the court, after a whole quarter of back and forth, the scoreboard read, 78 to 74.
The Suns were unable to build the lead they wanted in the third quarter, which they invested the most resources into tonight.
In Barkley's view, the Suns have created enough opportunities in this quarter.
However, while the Suns missed some opportunities, the Pistons also scored some unreasonable goals.
"In the fourth quarter, do we let Allen continue to play?" Brown asked when entering the intermission.
Wang Shuo shook his head, "Allen has been trying hard to break the Pistons' defense this quarter. Even if he is an iron man, we need to let him rest for at least 4 to 5 minutes in the last quarter."
Although in Wang Shuo's eyes, "Zen Master" has problems here or there.
But there is one thing, in Wang Shuo's view, Phil Jackson is right.
That is, whenever you play in the fourth quarter, you have to let your star rest for a while before letting him return to the court to harvest.
After taking a deep breath, Wang Shuo turned his eyes to Hardaway on the bench and said: "Anfernee, I need you to get enough rest time for Allen in the fourth quarter. Can you do it?"
Looking at Wang Shuo, Hardaway, who was not good at words, took off the towel on his shoulders and did not answer whether Wang Shuo could or could not.
But when he met Wang Shuo's eyes, Hardaway told Wang Shuo with his eyes:
Let Allen Iverson rest well!
During the period before he comes on the court, I will definitely keep the lead for the Suns!
In the final quarter of the game, the Suns' lineup was Chandler, Marion, Diaw, Bell, and Hardaway.
The Pistons' lineup is Okur, Robinson, Prince, Ray Allen, and Billups.
Judging from the personnel rotation of the two teams tonight, the Pistons will have an even greater advantage entering the final quarter of the game.
Because in the third quarter, Mike James replaced Billups for four minutes, and Ray Allen and Prince also had the opportunity to rest in the third quarter.
As for the two Wallaces who were temporarily taken off by the Pistons, Carlisle planned to wait until there were about 9 minutes left in the fourth quarter before putting them back on the court.
Looking back at the Suns, Marion didn't get any rest time throughout the third quarter tonight.
As for Iverson and Stoudemire, Wang Shuo wanted to put them back on the field with about 7 minutes left in the final quarter.
Therefore, this is why Wang Shuo previously believed that the Suns must build a lead of about 10 points in the third quarter tonight to ensure that the Suns will not suffer losses in the final quarter.
Wang Shuo, who has far fewer cards to play than Carlisle, knows very well...
After a wave of extreme resource exchange tonight, if the Suns are the dominant side in the third quarter, then in the final quarter of the game, the Pistons will become the dominant side in terms of physical fitness.
Before the start of the game, Wang Shuo had not thought about investing more resources in the final quarter.
But unfortunately, Wang Shuo couldn't do it.
In other words, he can't do it just relying on the current staff rotation of the Suns.
Because in this round of the series, the cards that both sides can play are determined, and Wang Shuo must make a choice during the game.
On the court, after the interval, the game started, and the Suns had the ball.
CCTV, watching Wang Shuo put the "Ba Da" group on the bench together, Director Zhang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said: "Wang Shuo's courage tonight is really extraordinary...
Even though the situation on the court was so stalemate at the moment, he still chose to let Iverson and Stoudemire rest for a while. "
In the first attack of the final quarter, as the Suns successfully dismantled two consecutive off-ball screens by the Pistons, Hardaway could only take the initiative to step forward and complete a pull-up when there was little attack time left.
when--!
Hardaway shot this ball very handsomely.
But the basketball missed the frame.
Coming back, the Pistons attacked. After Prince and Robinson stood in the right corner and a 45-degree angle on the right, Billups launched a "pistol tactic" from the high post on the left.
Chandler, Bell, and Hardaway successfully prevented the Pistons from launching their tactics, but Billups, who was responsible for taking over the blame, hit a key three-pointer for the Pistons when the Pistons' attack time entered the countdown!
78 to 77.
On CCTV, Director Zhang said anxiously: "The Suns are really unlucky tonight. They obviously guarded the ball..."
Luck certainly wasn't on the Sun's side tonight.
But in Wang Shuo's view, the main players of the Pistons have received sufficient rest time, which is the reason why this Pistons can frequently hit key goals on the court.
After all, how can you shoot these key shots when the technical movements are deformed?
On the court, the Suns have the ball.
Marion cleverly followed the pick-and-roll and received Hardaway's assist for a layup.
With this ball, Wang Shuo, who noticed that Marion's movements were slightly deformed during the layup, immediately turned around and called out Horry.
Wang Shuo knew that he had to let this "hacker" take a break.
Seeing this, on the bench, Stoudemire, who felt he could still play, immediately volunteered.
Then......
He was pushed back by Wang Shuo.
"Believe in your teammates, Amare!" Wang Shuo said while looking at Stoudemire.
On the court, after two rounds, due to a dead ball on the court, the Suns made substitutions. Marion came off and Horry came on.
At this time, in the on-site commentary box, Rivers said with a look of dissatisfaction: "If you don't replace core players at critical moments, do the Suns want to surrender?"
After a pause, Rivers continued: "Tonight the Suns are likely to lose to Wang Na's stubborn formation. At this time, the role of core players on the court is far beyond that of role players!"
On the sidelines, Smith, who assisted Olajuwon in winning the championship as a role player, wanted to refute Rivers...
But as the Pistons took the lead with 9 minutes and 45 seconds left in the quarter, Smith felt as if his chest was blocked.
In the commentary box, Rivers continued to criticize Wang Shuo: "Wang is too stubborn! At this time, even if he refuses to replace core players, he should call a timeout!"
In front of the TV, at this moment, there are definitely not a few fans who have the same idea as Rivers.
Especially after Hardaway once again took over the blame and missed a shot, and Ray Allen rewritten the score to 84 to 88 on the Pistons side...
no!
Can you please stop letting Hardaway shoot again!
How many shots has he missed in this quarter?
Also, can you quickly bring in the main force, or call a timeout?
Do you also want to imitate Phil Jackson?
Wang Shuo is certainly not imitating "Zen Master".
The reason he didn't call a timeout was simple.
Because the Suns' next timeout tonight is reserved for Iverson to recover his physical fitness.
In fact, by this point in the game, Wang Shuo knew better than anyone else that this game was no longer about tactics.
In addition, it is not that Wang Shuo has not thought about subbing Iverson and Stoudemire in advance.
But he is also very clear that in that case, the probability of the Suns winning this game will be greatly reduced.
Because if he wants to forcefully break the Pistons' defense, Wang Shuo must ensure that Iverson has sufficient physical fitness.
On the court, the Sun has the ball.
Fans who have always been honest were extremely angry at this moment when they noticed that Hardaway and Horry were once again launching pick-and-rolls on the wings.
But the next second, as Old Horry hit a three-pointer from Hardaway's pass after a pick-and-roll, the resentment in their hearts immediately turned into praise for Old Horry!
This was Robert Horry's third shot tonight.
Three shots were taken and three three-pointers were hit.
Seeing this on the Suns bench, Brown smiled and said: "Luck is finally back on our side!"
After hearing this, Wang Shuo retorted to Brown: "Mike, this is not luck, but the reward of Robert's hard training."
The Palace of Auburn Hills, Pistons offense.
Billups, who has always been known for his big heart, almost made a mistake this time due to Hardaway's crazy rush.
Facing Hardaway, Billups, who couldn't take advantage of the model, readjusted his dribbling focus. This time he became smarter and planned to use Hardaway's desperate defense to get a chance to get to the free throw line.
However, at the moment Billups was about to stick to Hardaway, Hardaway grabbed a knife before he could raise his hand and dropped the basketball that was exposed in front of Hardaway because he wanted to draw a foul!
After stealing the ball, Hardaway immediately dribbled the ball to start a fast break!
Bang, swish!
89 to 88!
Seeing this in front of the technical stage, Carlisle decisively applied for a timeout.
In the commentary box, Smith, who finally released the bad breath in his chest, also said at the same time: "Who said that in the NBA, small people can't have a big effect?"
Rivers was obviously a little unconvinced and said: "But in terms of the score in a single quarter, the Suns are still losing to the Pistons by 3 points."
But on the side, Van Gundy retorted: "But now...the Suns' substitutes have helped Allen Iverson get about 4 minutes of rest time!"
Hearing this, Rivers was speechless for a moment.
On the court, after the timeout, the Pistons replaced their five-tiger lineup.
The greedy Wang Shuo hoped that the substitutes could hold on for one more minute.
The Pistons had the ball, and Rasheed Wallace, who had just replaced him, pulled Horry to the right in singles.
Old Horry had no choice but to watch the roaring Tianzun take the ball in front of him.
Swish——!
89 to 90.
Back, the Suns attacked, and Hardaway, who had been looking up to observe the time, called Horry to come up and pick and roll him with about 8 seconds left in the attack.
But because Horry's pass threat was too low, the moment Hardaway opened up space through a change of rhythm, he was immediately double-teamed by Wallace and Billups.
In desperation, Hardaway, who knew that he was likely to make a mistake by passing the blame, immediately completed a three-pointer from outside the three-point line after blasting the ball. Even if Kobe came, he would have called an expert a turn-over three-pointer!
when!
The ball missed!
But under the basket, Chandler took advantage of his height advantage to overpower Ben and performed a behind-the-head pick at the Palace of Auburn Hills!
After taking off the rebound, Chandler noticed that Bell was open in the corner and immediately sent the ball towards Bell.
Uh-huh!
92 to 90!
Seeing this scene on the sidelines, Barkley said with emotion: "Although Anfernee failed to score the ball just now, if he failed to complete the shot, then we would not have been able to score the next goal."
On the side, Brown nodded and said: "That's right, Charles."
At this time, looking at Barkley and Brown who were also looking at Wang Shuo, Spoelstra felt...
Tonight, the Suns' substitutes played so well probably because each of them felt the trust Wang Shuo gave them.
Even though this man kept saying that these had nothing to do with him, they were just the result of the players' hard training.
But in the eyes of the three Barkleys...
Wang Shuo is obviously the key to the Suns' fierce battle with the Pistons in this game.
At the Palace of Auburn Hills, after taking a deep breath, he looked at the three Barkleys. Wang Shuo, who always felt that the three people looked at him wrongly at the moment, smiled and said: "Now, it's time to fight with this Pistons." Fighting with bayonet!"
On the Suns bench, Stoudemire, who was already thirsty, and Marion, who had regained a lot of blood, ran to the technical table first.
And what follows...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Of course it was the one who was arranging her hairband, with a fierce look and murderous look on her face...
"The Answer", Allen Iverson.
On the court, seeing this, Hardaway deliberately applied for a foul while defending Billups.
The ball was dead on the court and the Suns made substitutions.
Old Horry, Hardaway, Diaw, next.
Stoudemire, Marion, Iverson, enter.
On CCTV, Director Zhang said excitedly: "Here we come! The Suns have replaced their Big Three!"
On the court, the Pistons served a sideline ball.
The Pistons once again tried to create an outside shooting opportunity for Wallace through Double-Drag, but were successfully dissuaded by Marion who slipped directly to avoid the big screen.
At the top of the arc, after giving a signal to his teammates, Billups immediately divided the battlefield with the ball, creating an opportunity for Wallace to beat Marion in isolation.
But compared to the exhausted Marion a few minutes ago, how could the "hacker" at this moment give Wallace an easy chance to take action?
Under the interference of Marion, Wallace missed the shot.
In the penalty area, Chandler got stuck, and Stoudemire flew to grab the rebound.
And at this moment, Stoudemire, who noticed that the Pistons players were all attacking Iverson, had an idea again!
I saw him dribbling all the way to the Pistons half!
Since the Pistons players didn't expect Stoudemire to dribble the ball all by himself, when the two Wallaces wanted to turn around and pursue the defense, Stoudemire had already left them far behind!
Under the basket, looking at Billups who was the fastest to retreat, Stoudemire didn't hesitate at all!
After leaping forward, Stoudemire hit a tomahawk dunk across Billups, sounding the charge horn for the Suns in this final bayonet melee!
On the sidelines, Barkley, who saw this scene, was surprised by Stoudemire's terrible learning ability. At the same time, he was also sighing. If Wang Shuo hadn't given Stoudemire enough space to play freely on the court, then Stoudemire would have never been able to do it again. How spiritual, but it is difficult to convert it into this dunk at this moment!
In front of the technical stage, seeing that the Suns' morale was completely boosted by Stoudemire's dunk, Carlisle immediately took a timeout.
"Good man!" Wang Shuo said with emotion as he looked at Carlisle on the Suns bench.
During this timeout, Wang Shuo did not explain much to the players.
But all the Suns players remembered what Wang Shuo said, "Believe in each other and leave no regrets."
After the timeout, the Pistons had the ball.
Seeing that the team's tactics were blocked again, Billups looked up at the timer and suddenly raised his hand for a sneak attack.
Iverson was very focused on this shot, but due to his limited height, he still couldn't stop Billups from completing the shot.
Uh-huh!
94 to 93.
On CCTV, Director Zhang said with regret: "This player Billups... really has an unusually big heart!"
Come back and the Suns attack.
Stoudemire moved up to a high position to hold the ball and cooperate with Iverson's thugs.
Big Ben's goal increased his concentration. He had already been sneak-attacked twice by Stoudemire tonight. He secretly swore in his heart that if he was sneak-attacked by Stoudemire again in this game, he would immediately attack when the game was over. Go shave your head.
Stoudemire, who was holding the ball from the top of the arc, was not prepared to make a sneak attack this time.
However, tonight he had a flash of inspiration. Before passing the ball to Iverson, he used a shake of his right shoulder to successfully create a chance for Iverson to beat Billups in singles!
Although, in the first half of the final quarter, Billups bullied Hardaway for a long time.
But at this moment, facing this Iverson, whose physical fitness has been greatly relieved after resting...
The moment Iverson changed his left hand to his right, he immediately felt what "tit for tat" means.
Boom, boom!
From the high post, after quickly opening up the space, Iverson decisively took a shot from outside the three-point line!
Uh-huh!
97 to 93!
Seeing this on the Suns' bench, Barkley said excitedly: "Allen Iverson will tell you the 'answer'!"
On the court, after scoring the three-pointer, while hitting his chest with his left hand, Iverson also winked at Wang Shuo.
Tonight, Iverson, who is known as the "answer", knows very well how much effort Wang Shuo has put into this game.
therefore......
From the moment he stepped onto the court, he made up his mind.
He wants to use a victory to prove to the world how amazing this team led by this man is!
On the sidelines, Barkley asked curiously: "Do you think in the future people will say that Allen Iverson made the king, or that the king made Allen Iverson?"
After thinking for a while, Brown replied: "In my opinion, they should achieve each other."
Barkley asked: "What about Michael during the Wizards period?"
