Chapter 372 Veterans... will eventually wither!

Chapter 372 Veterans will eventually wither!

Billups seldom has such a tiring moment. In 04, he was able to fight the Lakers for five games and win the final fmvp. He no longer exists. Now he is just an old man whose running and jumping ability has declined after an Achilles tendon injury Now, even if he wants to help the team change the current bad situation, he still feels his body is exhausted.

Lao Ji Fuping, ambition of thousands of miles.

It's just that he is old!

Billups reluctantly dribbled the ball and used Wallace's cover to throw off Jann's defense. In the chaotic crowd, he found Hamilton who had just ran out of the open space. , This is the most familiar way for the old teammates, and it is also the most stable way for the Pistons to score.

"How many points did those two old guys score?"

"It's already 48 minutes."

After hearing this answer, Stotts rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. These two old guys who seemed to be unable to run caused huge troubles for the Bobcats. If they were struggling to support the Pistons with their own scoring, the Bobcats would have already widened the gap.

But now they are just struggling!

The mantis' arm is like a cart, and the final outcome will be doomed.

Gao Tian's opening three-pointer made the Pistons a little worried. At the same time, Gao Tian took advantage of the Pistons' lack of timely communication with his defense to make breakthroughs and scored consecutively, causing the Pistons players to mess up their defensive formation. Taking this opportunity, the Bobcats were of course To beat the dog in the water, Yi Jianlian and Zhann fired consecutively and stopped the Pistons at 12:0, forcing the Pistons to return to the field to communicate their tactical arrangements. Even Stotts did not expect the effect to be so good. Head start for the Bobcats to win the initiative on the field.

And this is only at the beginning of the Bobcats. The Bobcats' young players have released all the vitality in their bodies. Although the Pistons players want to prevent the Bobcats from scoring, they feel that they have more than enough energy. At least until now. Physical strength is still good, but their hearts are a little tired. Hamilton, Billups, and Rasheed Wallace, the three of them have been in the league for more than ten years, but today they really feel the years power.

In the past, they dared to fight no matter how much they fell behind, and never gave up. At that time, they had Billups, the best playmaker in the league, the best perimeter defender, Hamilton, an expert in running positions, and a double copy of the inside In guarding, at that time they were the most solid shield in the league. No team's offense could tear them apart, but now, maybe it really can't do it. They can't beat this youth army. Founded by Lynx.

This is the sadness of a hero's twilight. The Pistons fans in the Palace of Auburn Hills gradually felt the struggle and unwillingness of the players on the field. Their voices gradually weakened. Even if they didn't want to admit it, maybe it was the truth. Detroit was once invincible Pistons, maybe this is really the last glory.

"Beautiful breakthrough! The Pistons' defense is too slack, and Jann drove straight to help the Bobcats extend their lead to as much as [-] points!"

"Sanders called a timeout. The Pistons players are not in their state at all. They need time to rest and think about facing the Bobcats' surging offensive. What is the average age of these old guys? How to deal with it!"

"Grant, what's the matter with you?"

Sun Yue looked curiously at Grant Hill at the Pistons, who seemed a little sad. Obviously, the Bobcats are now in the lead. Why did Hill look like this? He couldn't help asking.

"It's ok, I just... saw some people in them"

Hill hesitated to speak, he smiled and shook his head and stood up and patted the confused Sun Yue on the head. He knew that the rookie in front of him had a hard time understanding why the Pistons players were filled with confusion before the end of the first quarter. Young people like Sun Yue must not understand the atmosphere of disappointment and sadness, because it is a kind of despair that only veterans can understand.

The ball that could be easily scored in the past can't be put in the basket no matter what, with sore and heavy legs, aching arms, and eyes that are gradually blurred by sweat. Veterans don't die, but they will only gradually wither.

"Grant, I'll be off later, you take John and Sun Yue with you,"

Gao Tian knew that if there were no major changes in this game, the Pistons would probably stop there. The strongest fortress would always be broken from the inside. At the inflection point, they will not only become witnesses to history, but also participants in history.

The difference is that the former Pistons should have been sent to the finish line by James himself, but now it is Gao Tian who personally sent the iron-blooded Pistons into history. In fact, the end of the Pistons was already doomed after Ben Wallace chose to leave. Some people who are tired of watching the Pistons lineup will think that it is a good thing for the Pistons to change to a younger, more talented and future lineup. Maybe the Pistons will return to the championship team's lineup in less than two years.

But only Gao Tian knows that after the Pistons disbanded the lineup that brought them glory and glory for ten years, they have been struggling on the edge of the playoffs for more than ten years. Every year is a strong contender for the lottery team.

"Grant Hill's breakthrough layup is really unbelievable. It seems that age is not a hindrance to this former superstar. On the contrary, with the disappearance of this year's injury, we have seen it in him who is already 34 years old. The figure of the All-Star ticket king who can overwhelm Jordan, "

"And his teammate, Chris Webber's personal status has also begun to recover gradually. No one will think that he is 33 years old when he can hang Rasheed Wallace. After Rasheed Wallace has come to this point At that time, Webber was even better."

"Hill tried his hand, 35 points, 35 rebounds and 7 assists in 7 minutes. At this time, he became the Bobcats' head star and led the Bobcats to win this crucial battle of Tianwangshan!"

"The three only scored 40 points, the overlord of the Eastern Conference fell, and the fate of the Pistons has long been doomed!"

"The performance of the Pistons in the battle of Tianwangshan disappointed everyone. They have lost the spirit of the former kings. 110:96, can the Pistons, who lost 14 points, continue their lives in the sixth game?"

The Bobcats defeated the Pistons successfully became the first team in the league to get a series match point!
