I am Really an Insider

In the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the two sides played really fiercely.

This intensity is not only reflected in the score, but also in the physical confrontation and trash talk confrontation.

If you want to know what it means to take a ball while fighting, then watch this game.

"Way passed the ball to Jermaine, and he was going to attack under the basket. Oh! Ben Wallace just knocked Jermaine down. This is the style of Detroit, they don't hesitate to foul and don't allow the opponent to get easy A chance to score!”

When Steve Kerr saw Ou being knocked off the baseline by Big Ben, he felt a bit of pain.

This damn thing is so cruel!

I have to say that the series between the Pacers and the Pistons was so exciting.

Moreover, the referees were very cooperative in making this series a very big one.

Although Stern has now begun to advocate offensive basketball, he has not completely abandoned confrontation. It is still very different from the future style of fouling at the touch of a ball, causing everyone to not defend.

If we go by the standards of the regular season, the Pacers and Pistons would have already graduated with six offenses.

"What do you want to do? Do you think you are hard?" As soon as O'Neal got up from the ground, he rushed to Ben.

The two beasts looked at each other, as if their noses were touching.

This is not the first time that O'Brien has been violated by Big Ben today. His shooting percentage today is very bad, less than 45%.

This is all thanks to the rough defense of the best defensive player.

And the referee will not blow the whistle every time for those rough defenses.

"What's wrong, sissy? If you think you can't fight, get out of here. No one is asking you to fight. This is a real man's game. Madam, please stay away." Ben raised his hands, pretending to be innocent, and then His mouth didn't stop.

The referee intervened in time and separated the two sides.

Conflicts like this have happened many times today.

"Another conflict has been resolved. The smell of gunpowder between the Pacers and the Pistons is indeed very strong." Cole looked up and saw that Wayne had not intervened in the matter.

Well, then we definitely can’t fight.

Even though all the players on the field look fierce now, if you want to say who really dares to take action, it's only Wayne!

As long as Wayne doesn't intervene, there will definitely be no fight.

Wayne shook his head from the outside. You guys are so unhygienic. Aren't you afraid of saliva splashing from such a close distance?

Actually, Wayne didn't dare to do anything openly today. Otherwise, Ben would have been beaten long ago!

He's been pulling Xiao Ao so many times today, and he's just pushing the envelope.

But there is no way, the championship is more important!

Stern has a firm grasp on everyone's psychology.

During the regular season, each of you was more arrogant than the other, and each of you played harder than the other.

O'Brien and Artena were both suspended twice in one season.

Although Wayne was only suspended once, he was famous for his actions.

But now, Stern is not afraid anymore!

If you dare to fight, I will ban you. I dare to suspend you, but do you dare to lose the championship?

You don’t dare!

Therefore, Stern did not let the referee interfere too much in the game today.

Let them make a noise, they won't dare to do anything anyway!

Using some gimmicks can also stimulate the ratings.

Otherwise, the game between the Pacers and the Pistons, in which the opponent has fewer irons, is worth watching.

In this way, the two sides were noisy today, but there was no major conflict.

At this time, the game has reached the last three minutes of the fourth quarter. O'Neal Jr. stood on the free throw line and made only one of two free throws.

The too intense physical confrontation affected Xiao Ao's touch.

After making one of two free throws, the Pacers led the Pistons by 3 points.

Today, everyone did not score many points, and their shooting percentages were generally low.

It's because the defense is so intense.

Wayne has only scored 15 points so far, making 5 of 8 shots and 3 of 4 free throws.

Wayne is one of the few players with a fairly high shooting percentage today, and he is very confident as long as he takes a shot.

But the key is that Wayne doesn't have many chances to take action today!

The Pistons' defensive strategy today is dynamic double-teaming.

What is called dynamic double-teaming is that once Wayne holds the ball, depending on the situation, one of the little prince and Big Ben will definitely double-team Wayne.

Well, it's really outrageous for the defending champion to double-team a first-year rookie.

Although Wayne had the experience of scoring goals under the defense of Webber and Dalembert in the last round of the series, he is not Kobe after all.

Under normal circumstances, Wayne would not choose to take action under double teams.

Therefore, Wayne passed most of the balls with poor chances.

Therefore, Wayne's scoring was indeed limited to a low level today, much lower than when he played the 76ers.

Compared with the Pistons, the 76ers can basically be called undefended.

However, passing the ball did not help the Pacers open the situation.

If it is passed to Artest, not to mention whether his three-pointer is stable, the little prince can always make up for it as soon as possible.

Coupled with the interference of his long arms, it is difficult for Artest to effectively take advantage of the double-team opportunity to hit the shot.

And if Xiao Ao was leaked, the scene just now would be the result.

Ben was very active in running today and was always able to rush back and interfere with Ou's shots.

Xiao Ou's shooting percentage today was less than 45%, and he was knocked down again and again. This is how he came about.

Overall, the Pistons' defense was successful, but they also struggled offensively.

Tianzun has made 3 of 12 shots so far. Under Artest's defense, the little prince is basically a transparent man on the offensive end.

The Pacers and Pistons, as always, used brutal physical defense, torturing each other and enjoying themselves.

Trailing by 3 points in 3 minutes, the Pistons definitely had a chance to make a comeback, and they did not give up.

On the next goal, Rasheed set up an off-ball screen for the masked man Hamilton.

Facing the Pistons' attack, Carlisle's strategy was to switch defenses indefinitely and not give the Pistons the first chance.

Therefore, Wayne immediately switched defense in front of Hamilton, giving him no room to shoot.

As a result, Billups went straight to Rasheed.

Just like that, Wallace hit a three-pointer under Payton's weak defense and tied the score!

"Come on, kid, score 36 points and show me!" After Rasheed scored, he naturally yelled at Wayne.

"You just scored four goals today, are you so happy? I scored five, do you think I'm happy? Or have you forgotten that your shots are almost twice as many as mine, and you still score goals?" One less than me?"

"Fuck!" Rasheed was hit hard again, and Wayne's rebound was simply powerful.

The score is still tight, and this game finally gave Pacers fans a bit of a playoff feel.

This time Jackson holds the ball and Wayne steps up to cover.

But Hamilton's ability to get around screens is also very strong. He quickly got back in front of Jackson and the confrontation was quite rough.

Jackson passed the ball to Xiao'ao again, and Xiao'ao made a big play in the low post!

Although Ben is not tall, he is strong.

It's okay for O'Neill to bully Dalembert, but it's really hard to do anything when he backs up his boss.

Although the two sides had a heated exchange of words before the game, it was just a fluke to ridicule Ben.

But let's face it, Ben, the best defensive player, actually has something to offer.

Seeing that he couldn't reach the basket, Xiao O decided to turn over and shoot a jump shot!

Then, at this anxious moment when the score was tied, at this moment when the star player urgently needed to step up, O'Brien's turnaround jumper failed again.

That's right, again.

In the Eastern Conference finals last season, O'Brien experienced such embarrassment countless times.

When he needs to attack at a critical moment, he can easily be blocked and completely misfired.

O'Neal lacks the kind of killer move that can finalize the game. His low post skills are very comprehensive and he can do everything.

But when faced with a strong defense, Xiao Ao does not have that kind of very stable offensive weapon.

This is where Artest dissatisfied him the most.

In this case, what's the difference between him and my Yincheng Santaizi?

Then why is he the captain and the leader?

Just when all the Pistons players thought the defense was successful again, Wayne suddenly jumped out and collected the rebound before Ben!

"Wayne, he got the rebound! What is Rasheed doing? He actually let Wayne rush in so easily."

Tianzun feels miserable. It’s not that I’m stuck, but I’m pulled outside the three-point line. How do you want me to get stuck?

Before he could react, Wayne rushed in!

As soon as Wayne grabbed the rebound and landed on the ground, Double Wallace hurriedly raised his hands and stuck to it, but didn't even give him a chance to pass the ball.

Wayne, who was standing on the edge of the baseline, lost his center of gravity under the deliberate squeeze of Double Wallace and fell backwards.

But before he completely lost his center of gravity, Wayne smashed the ball into Tianzun's legs.

This time he hit it accurately and it didn't turn into a wonderful pass again.

"Dudududu, the Pacers have the ball!" The referee made a prompt decision and gave the penalty result.

Wayne relied on his enthusiasm to grab an offensive opportunity for the Pacers!

Tianzun:? ? ?

The ball went out of bounds before I even touched it?

Although it is frustrating, this is the rule of basketball. Whoever touches the ball at the end will be out of bounds.

Even if you are forced to touch the ball.

"Focus on Rashid, I grabbed two offensive rebounds today." After Wayne finished speaking, he deliberately shrugged at Tianzun.

Tianzun was so angry that he almost couldn't hold back and wanted to explode!

From the regular season to now, Tianzun doesn’t know how many times he has been humiliated by Wayne!

But in the end, the angry Tianzun loosened his fist and walked away from Wayne.

Is it love? Is it for the responsibility of winning the championship?

It was purely overthinking, Tianzun was just afraid that he would not be able to defeat him.

It's very embarrassing to be banned if you can't beat it!

Taking advantage of Wayne's abrupt attack, Jackson hit a half-volume basket and continued to help the team maintain the lead.

"Damn, it's really annoying!" On the sidelines, Larry Brown looked at Wayne as if he was a thorn in his side.

To be honest, if the Pacers didn't have Wayne, they would have been defeated long ago.

Although Wayne's statistics today are not as gorgeous as when he played against the 76ers, he actually caused a lot of trouble for the Pistons.

Not to mention the distance, just the ball just now. Without Wayne, would the Pacers have another chance to attack?

If Rasheed hadn't been entangled by Wayne, would he have been so anxious in today's game if he could have been so accurate?

How abominable!

On both offense and defense, Wayne made it difficult for the Pistons.

The Pacers overtook again, and everyone continued to engage in hand-to-hand fighting.

Until the last 38 seconds, the Pistons were still 3 points behind. During this period, there were naturally more strikes than goals. Both sides collided with each other, but no goal was scored.

This time defense is crucial to the Pistons. As long as they can prevent this time, the Pistons will still have a chance to counterattack.

If it was last season, if the game reached this moment, the Pistons would have at least a 50% chance of winning.

Because the Pacers' key ball is famous for its eight lines.

It was this 518 that allowed the Pistons to reach the finals with difficulty last season.

But this season

"Payton is controlling the time, and we don't know what kind of offensive tactics coach Carlisle has arranged. But the Pistons must be very nervous now, because the Pacers played the key ball this season very well!

Whenever the game reaches a critical round, the Pacers almost win! "

Cole's words were actually not very rigorous.

It's not that the Pacers' key shots have become better, it's just that Wayne's key shots have become better.

At the critical moment for O'Brien and Artest, to be honest, they should do whatever they want.

Director Zhang saw this more clearly. Therefore, his commentary pointed out the key point directly: "Give the ball to Xiao Wei!"

With 8 seconds left in the attack time, Payton lobbed the ball to O'Sullivan who was trying to stay in position.

Of course, Carlisle did not let O'Brien finish the game, but simply hoped that O'Brien could attract Double Wallace's double-team.

but

Tianzun, he doesn’t care about Xiao Ao at all!

I’m not afraid of the threat of your key ball!

Xiao Ao was embarrassed. After all, I am the captain of the Yincheng brigade. You don't want to give me this face?

Fortunately, Wayne came out in time and got half a step away from Tianzun before receiving Xiao Ao's pass.

Carlisle was scared to death. From now on, Ma Dan should just give the ball to Wayne directly. All these bells and whistles are of no use!

In the playoffs, giving the ball to the strongest person is really the best tactic.

When Wayne received the basketball, there were only 4 seconds left in the attack time.

At this time, Tianzun had already pressed forward, and the little prince also raised his long arms and ran in the direction of Wayne, preparing to double-team.

Wayne could have shot directly after receiving the ball. He had a fleeting opportunity to jump on the spot, but

You can no longer trigger "Offensive Kaleidoscope" by shooting directly!

Wayne calmly made a fake shot, then passed by Rashid, took a step and made a pull-up jumper against the little prince.

Although Rashid was shaken for a while, he quickly returned to his position and also caused some interference to Wayne from the side.

"Ah, this." Cole was confused. If you didn't take a shot when you just had the opportunity, you would be making it more difficult for yourself!

That's right, even if Wayne has no difficulties, he still has to create difficulties.

Because only by triggering "Offensive Kaleidoscope" and "Big Heart Killer" at the same time can the shooting percentage be increased to the highest level!

Wei. If it’s not difficult, I won’t vote. Well.

What's the point of simply scoring?

Just like that, Wayne made an emergency jumper against the little prince.

As soon as he pushed the ball out, the red light on the backboard came on.

At the same time, the Nets made a "swipe" sound.

Wayne hit the key ball, and his last-minute shot helped the Pacers lead by 5 points!

Almost sealed the victory for the Pacers!

"Thank you very much for the great goal. It actually went in! It's indeed Wei! Although this is only his 19th point of the game, it is indeed a goal worth thousands of dollars!"

Kerr originally wanted to say, "Wei still lacks experience and this shot was unreasonable."

As a result, it smells really good now.

As long as you can score, you just stand on the midfield line where the LOGO is and shoot, and nothing is said about you.

"Where are you Rashid, where are you? Why didn't I see you just now? What? Were you defending me just now?" After scoring, Wayne spread his hands, shook his head and began to stimulate Tianzun's nerves.

Tianzun is also 30 years old. Being told this by a kid in his twenties, not to mention how aggrieved he felt.

Larry Brown quickly called a timeout and arranged the attack in the last 14 seconds.

However, Brown's sideline ball tactics were completely guessed by Carlisle.

On the Pistons side, Rasheed sent a sideline ball, Billups and Prince feinted, and the one who really caught the ball was Hamilton, who scored the most points today.

As a result, Artest followed the masked man closely, without giving him any room to shoot.

Originally Artest was defending the little prince, but this attack was temporarily transferred to defend Hamilton.

Facts have proved that Carlisle's prediction was correct.

Although Carlisle is a defensive-minded coach, his offensive routines are not that sophisticated.

But Carlisle has great experience in attacking sidelines.

It is not difficult for Carlisle to guess Larry Brown's arrangement.

In this way, Hamilton, who originally wanted to score a goal, was blocked by Artest.

In the end, the only option was to pass the ball.

However, his pass to Billups was intercepted midway by the wily Payton.

After Payton stole the ball, he took advantage of the fast break and scored an easy layup, widening the point difference to 7 points.

The Pistons were completely sentenced to death!

"Maybe you should take off your mask, otherwise you won't be able to see the target of the pass." Payton tilted his mouth and squirted at Hamilton.

Now, the Pistons only have one option: foul tactics.

But unless a miracle happens, the Pistons won't have any chance of winning.

In the end, the 7-point difference remained until the end of the game.

95 to 88, the Pacers won the first game of the series at home!

Although the process was very tortuous and difficult, the main reason was that it hurt all over my body from the fall.

But at least we won!

"This season, the Indiana Pacers will no longer be complacent. They are ready to compete for the championship!"

Miller once again kicked the basketball off the ground. This kick was worth $5,000 because he would definitely receive a ticket from the league after the game.

But so what?

The last time I kicked a basketball was to vent, this time it was to celebrate!

Old Miller is so happy now. Finally, at the critical moment, he no longer has to do it himself.

Finally, they were no longer weak-limbed at critical moments.

Larry Brown left with a serious look on his face.

In fact, he was very satisfied with the team's performance today.

If it weren't for Wayne

Larry Brown frowned and walked into the tunnel.

Wayne must be dealt with before the Pacers can be dealt with!

So, what to do about Wayne? Are you going to do something like the Spurs?

No, you can't defeat that guy with this simple and crude method.

Because no one is rougher than Wayne

When the time comes, the gains outweigh the losses, and it will be a loss to Dafa.

Larry Brown still believes that Wayne has the ability to "unintentionally" hurt people.

Therefore, to deal with Wayne, we must rely on outsmarting him!

Well, the Hall of Fame coach already has a plan in mind.

All he needs to do is let his players force a relationship with Wayne.

It's called Qiang. Well, it doesn't matter what you are strong about.

What matters is the plan.
