Chapter 718 A Bug-like Group of Two
Chapter 718 A BUG-Like Duo
Everyone in the Spurs bowed their heads and walked towards the player tunnel with heavy expressions. All of them looked not good.
In the 4 minutes that seemed to be a decisive battle, they had a complete taste of what it means to fail!
Under the oppression of Tony Allen and insider Ben Wallace, the Warriors, even though Carter and Bosh have super strength on the offensive end, under the oppression of these two leading defensive players, they completely lost their the crosshairs!
Just like Barkley commented after the game.
"It's an exciting and unstoppable presence for a team with the lowest depth in this league!"
"Even if they have some various problems, but when they are like awakened people and quickly get back on track, they will be a group of daunting teams that put pressure on their opponents before the game!"
Bruce sat comfortably in the back of the car, thinking about the previous battle between the Warriors and the Spurs!
In his impression, even if a team has a strong and deep lineup, he never thought that a team could burst out with such amazing energy!
Thinking of the current star-studded lineup of the Warriors, Bruce couldn't help but smile!
"Who would have thought that I was a "normal person" from the future?"
There was a gleam of light in Bruce's eyes, watching the night scene passing by quickly outside the window, he couldn't help but said playfully in his heart.
The next day, after the Warriors defeated the Spurs in the first game, the duel between the Eastern duo also began!
This year's Heat team really surprised everyone, regardless of whether they had caused a great impact by bringing O'Neal into the team before!
However, after they entered the final Eastern Conference finals step by step this year, no one could have imagined that just a big guy who seemed to have slipped a little from his peak could bring a team to such a situation!
Judging from the Heat's lineup, when they chose to trade O'Neal, the team's lineup seemed a bit fragmented!
However, I don't know if Stan Van Gundy's ability is really amazing, or there is Pat Riley behind him on the defensive end. Under the leadership of Wade and O'Neal, the Heat directly entered the top ranks of the league!
As some media people and experts said, this is an amazing scene where one person changes the entire team!
However, under the circumstances that many media and experts have selectively forgotten Wade, Bruce believes that the Heat have made this step, and most of them are due to Wade!
The home of the Heat, the duel between them and the Pistons attracted a large number of fans who love them from all over the United States to watch the game!
I don't know if it's because the Heat have been out of power for too long, but there are a large number of gray-haired old people in the stands to help out!
"This is a game that makes all the Heat excited!"
As Pat Riley said before this game, they haven't brought such excitement to the fans for too long!
However, when the two sides started, the Pistons' strong defense gradually suppressed the Heat!
In the first quarter of the game, I don’t know if O’Neal was absent due to injury in the regular season. In this quarter of the game, Rasheed Wallace used amazing defense and toughness to directly surpass the inside killer on the rebound O'Neal!
If it weren't for O'Neal's still strong offensive performance, I'm afraid he would be directly locked by Rasheed Wallace!
In the first quarter of the game, because the players on both sides invested a lot of energy in defense, which made them score less, the point difference between the two teams was only three points!
Of course, the defensive energy displayed by the Pistons is even more intimidating, which also temporarily proves that Larry Brown's defensive system and philosophy are not inferior to Pat Riley.
And when the two sides entered the second quarter, it seemed that the two teams were completely on the defensive end. During the entire quarter of the game, the two sides continued to have fierce confrontations. As the confrontation gradually escalated, at the end of the game After that, the point difference between the two teams also had to explain their toughness on the defensive end!
20:18, this is the point difference between the two sides. If the Pistons hadn’t exploded with strong attacking power from Antonio McDyess, I’m afraid that under the dominance of O’Neal, the Heat would at least be able to close the point difference. Get it back!
However, when the double reverse entered the second half, I don't know if it was due to over-investment in defense, the Heat gradually entered a downturn!
Under the strong defense of the Pistons, Wade's breakthrough gradually appeared in a bad situation of hitting the iron again and again!
As the Optimus Prime inside the Heat, O'Neal also lost his room to play in the double-teaming of Rasheed Wallace and McDyess!
For a while, with the frequent hits of Hamilton and Prince, the Heat directly fell behind the Pistons by 6 points in this game.
In the end, even though the Heat desperately wanted to get back the score in the last quarter, they lost their first game at home amidst the regretful sighs of the home fans amidst the still tough defense of the Pistons. games!
"This is a bad game. We didn't show our advantages on the offensive end, but we completely lost ourselves in the tough defense of the Pistons!"
After the game, O'Neal told all the media with an extremely serious expression on his face, obviously he was not satisfied with his game!
As the second leader of the team, Wade seemed a little unhappy. After all, he was only a second-year rookie. It could be seen from his face that he was obviously disappointed and frustrated!
With the Pistons defeating the Heat, some companies in Las Vegas quickly changed the winning odds of the two teams. These companies also set their sights on stronger defense and proved themselves last season. On the Pistons!
When the game between the Heat and the Pistons ended, the next day ushered in the second game between the Spurs and the Warriors!
According to the league's schedule, the Eastern and Western finals will all end at the end of May, which makes their schedule a bit tight!
And in this game, because of the exciting game between the Warriors and the Spurs, not only did more fans come here, but also the media from other countries who were planning to broadcast the finals also came here one after another!
"We will still get this game, even if the Spurs play a tough game, this will not stop us from moving forward!"
Before the game, when Bruce was interviewed by the media, he seemed extra confident. Even though some media raised some sharp questions, he was still full of confidence in the Warriors!
Afterwards, when the match between the two teams started, Bruce was still very confident. Under the super high shooting rate of the Spurs players, he subconsciously restrained himself a lot!
In the first quarter of the game, the Spurs were directly behind the Spurs by [-] points under the state of Carter and Bosh.
In this quarter of the game, even though Nowitzki had sealed his palm tightly on Bosh's face, he was still able to throw the basketball into the basket with a difficult posture!
Carter, on the other hand, was even more against the sky. He not only caused Korver's fouls repeatedly when he already had a sturdy breakthrough, but also played an astonishing three times with an astonishing 2+1!
"Damn it, they're like a BUG possessed, no matter how we defend, they can always throw the ball in, it's so frustrating!"
That's right, just like the depressed look on Payton's face now, the performance of Carter and Bosh not only brought the Spurs a [-]-point lead, but also sprinkled frustration and loss in the hearts of the Warriors players. !
When you think about it, even though you've tried your best and done your best, it's so frustrating when you fail.
Among them, competitive sports are the most frustrating, and the psychological blow is also very obvious!
Noticing the frustrated looks of the players, Wilkens didn't say anything, he just sat quietly in his seat!
"Guys, as much as they seem to be able to do anything, they're still a player!"
Duncan stood up suddenly, and he said seriously to his teammates, now is the time when he is needed!
"Even if they have an astonishing touch, but this unreal shooting rate, I think they will definitely decline, or quickly enter a low ebb, so as long as we can tenaciously execute Lenny's defense Tactics and positive responses, I think we are still the ones who win in the end!!"
After hearing Duncan's words, the players wondered if it was because of the team's core and pillars. These guys, who were still a little depressed, gradually improved, but Tony Allen and Ben Wallace, who are famous for their tough defense, A hint of ferocity appeared on the person's face!
In the second quarter, Carter and Bosh continued their incredible performance. After covering their faces, they lost their center of gravity and hit a jumper. After breaking through, their bodies were extremely twisted, and the basketball still stumbled into a 2+1.
When the whistle sounded for the end of the halftime game, the entire arena seemed to lose its voice, and all the fans frowned and watched the stadium!
65:55, still a very poor score, but the current situation is the proud time of the Spurs!
Through the BUG-like crazy performance in the first half, Carter and Bosh teamed up and scored 65 of the 45 points.
However, this situation is not entirely a problem with the Warriors' defensive players, all of which can only be attributed to the amazing state of Carter and Bosh!
