Chapter 197 10 consecutive victories, 99 points start

The Pistons attacked, and the others opened up the space, allowing Billups to single Paul.

Last season, the Pistons crushed the Eagles. In addition to the defensive system that defeated the Eagles' offense, Billups' suppression of Paul was also the top priority.

Billups has an overall advantage in height, weight, confrontation, and a "big butt" bonus. Paul couldn't carry him and was pressed to the free throw line. Billups made a mid-range shot.

Milicic quickly served the baseline ball, Paul accelerated the push, and was still followed by Billups.During the planning, Paul did not choose to be strong, but slowed down to fight positional warfare.

Facing Billups, Paul's way of attacking is pick-and-roll, one step speeding up and past Billups' defense.Faced with McDyess's change of position, Paul did not choose to pass the ball immediately, but made a sudden stop and then accelerated in an instant. It seemed that he wanted to fight McDyess one-on-one.

McDyess's body was tightly attached to Paul, and while his feet were moving laterally to the right, he also covered his front with his hands to avoid being wiped clean by Paul's sudden turn.

Paul turned sharply to the left, opened the position between himself and McDyess, and then quickly threw the shot. (4:7)

Playing for the Pistons, Milicic has developed a good defensive awareness, not to mention McDyess.But his movement speed is not as fast as Ben Wallace, and his big defense and small defense can't keep up with the rhythm.

Billups broke through to the inside with the ball and was blocked by Garnett. He chose to distribute the ball to Hamilton on the outside. The jump shot was successful.

McDyess entered the starting lineup, and the Pistons' offense has indeed improved, but they are really not at the top on the defensive end.Using the pick-and-roll, Garnett pretended to continue cutting inside, but when McDyess shifted his center of gravity back, he immediately took a side step and returned to the mid-range position, making a shooting action before the defense came up.

The first time Rasheed rushed up, Garnett seized the moment when the opponent's center of gravity leaned forward, and immediately changed from shooting to breakthrough.

Grabbing Rasheed's body and going straight to the basket, Garnett hit the basket hard and was about to dunk against McDyess!

McDyess was also a little anxious when he was hit by Garnett at the beginning of the game. He directly put his elbow against Garnett's lower body, destroying Garnett's center of gravity. Under this dangerous action, Garnett said that he dunked the dunk and was not seriously injured. They are all experienced and know how to protect themselves!

Getting up from the ground, Garnett then "aggressively" threw his fist and ran towards McDyess, spouting trash talk, and was then held up by Anthony Parker and the referee; McDyess was irritated by Garnett's trash talk He rushed towards Garnett and was soon stopped.

When someone pulls a fight, Garnett is even more "excited", moving around flexibly, punching, showing his "anger", while ensuring that his teammates and staff can hold him back. . . . . .

On the surface, Garnett is "pseudo-tough" and pretending. In fact, with the help of this wave of "making troubles", the referee must watch the video just now and severely punish McDyess for his lethal actions.

After a farce, Garnett was whistled for a technical foul, and McDyess was directly asked out of the court.

Billups made a free throw for a technical foul, and then Garnett and Joe Johnson made two free throws respectively. (7:11)

Muhammad replaced McDyess, and the Pistons had some trouble on the offensive end.The Eagles changed their defensive layout, using Joe Johnson to mark Billups, Paul and Hamilton for a long-distance running game; Garnett spared more energy to help fill the position and help defend, Billups and Hamilton's offense were respectively affected. limit.

Billups and Hamilton's offense was limited, and Sanders immediately made deployments to give Prince more possessions and singled out Anthony Parker on the weak side.This adjustment has achieved good results. Facing Anthony Parker, Prince frequently used his footsteps to sway his opponent away and scored mid-range jumpers, helping the Pistons hold on to the score in an unfavorable situation.

Prince, as the Pistons' outside iron gate and second organization point, has above-hand shooting, but his offensive ability with the ball is very average. Usually, he can only rely on his height to single out small guards or seize opportunities in the offensive and defensive transition phase.Anthony Parker was eaten raw by him continuously, and Ke Yan's face became unsightly.

Although there were only 12 games in the season, Anthony Parker was blown up a lot.Whenever the Eagles are in a fierce battle with their opponents, Stevens will always bring changes to the team, and it will also make some voices support Stevens' upper starting lineup.

But the appearance of Stevens means that Joe Johnson has to be in the third position, and the rotation stage is occasionally paid for. Letting Joe Johnson be in the third position for a long time is a bit of a small loss.

In the final analysis, if the Eagles want to further strengthen the team's lineup, what needs to be adjusted is the team's small forward position.

After the first quarter, the Pistons trailed by 23 points at 29:6.

Although the strength of the Pistons has declined seriously this season, and McDyess was sent off for a malicious foul, Ke Yan's mentality of crushing the Eagles in one season is still somewhat shadowed.Ke Yan arranged for Joe Johnson to continue playing as a ball-holding point for the substitute lineup to help sort out the offense.

In addition to Ben Wallace leaving the team, the Pistons also lost Cato, Arroyo, Mihm and others this summer, and the bench lineup has also declined significantly. Among the subsequent reinforcements, only Ronald Murray can barely Come in handy.Coupled with the obvious degradation of Hunter this season, the strong backing behind the Pistons has also become mediocre this season. The combat effectiveness of the Pistons has also slowly sank along with the city of Detroit. The Eagles quickly widened the gap to double digits.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Pistons replaced Rasheed Wallace and Hamilton in advance to help revitalize the team's offense.

Hamilton, who is known for his off-ball running and mid-range, is not without the ability to score with the ball. Now he bites the bullet and launches an offense through the pick-and-roll, barely able to hold the scene, and the appearance of Rasheed Wallace Stabilized the Pistons' defense, and the two teamed up to help the team narrow the point difference to single digits.

A centipede is dead but not stiff.This Pistons team can still break into the Eastern Conference Finals twice after losing their big book. The resilience is really strong!As an opponent, Ke Yan also has to admire this team formed by "blue-collar workers".

Today, due to the butterfly effect brought by Ke Yan, Iverson went to the Bobcats. In the future, his deal with Billups may not be possible. Maybe the remaining four members of this Jagged Legion will be together for a longer period of time in the future.

Diaw's injury has a great impact on the rotation of the Eagles. Millsap performed well when he was partnered with the main force, but he was not able to cover it with Mbenga; and the team's back line is indeed old. Older, younger, Bobby Jackson and Daniel Gibson each had their own problems.

Fortunately, these problems together are big problems, but if Garnett comes on stage, they can all be covered up.Ke Yan replaced Mbenga with Garnett and Joe Johnson with Anthony Parker, and the team immediately had a backbone. Garnett improved the team's defense and made more changes to the team's offense.

At the same time, Anthony Parker, who got more ball rights, can also show his offensive ability in front of the steel defense of the Pistons. He has played a lot in Europe, and he is not just a spot-up shooter.

The Eagles opened the point difference to double digits again, and then, the remaining main lineups of both sides returned.

The end of McDyess is a very serious loss for the Pistons. Mohamed has no way to fill the vacancy. Billups, Hamilton and others are working very hard, but it is still a bit unsustainable. , The point difference was pulled to 15 points.

Seeing that the Eagles, which were eaten to death last season, have been able to suppress the Pistons this season, Philip Sanders felt very helpless.

And as the head coach, Sanders is a coach who is very good at designing tactics on the tactical board, but his ability to adapt on the spot is not top-notch. He can't digest and deal with the changes brought about by McDyess' departure. So much so that in the second half, the Pistons were still passive and couldn't make any waves!

Seeing the "tough but incomprehensible" attitude of the Pistons in front of him, Ke Yan remembered his previous life, an important signing of the Pistons' mid-to-late record improvement, Chris Webber!

Over the years, the impact of successive injuries has made Webber's knees almost impossible to bend.He lost the speed and explosiveness he relied on to survive, and he could no longer attack the basket.He carefully completed the back attack with a slow speed on the court, and he refused to make large lateral moves when defending.The straight-arm jumper is pretty much Webber's only remaining weapon.

After joining the Pistons, Webber's slow movement speed is no longer an unbearable problem in the team's league's last offensive and defensive rhythm.On the defensive end, he only needs to do a good job of low post defense and rebound protection. The Pistons have a strong defensive system to help him cover up the rest of the problems.And his coping ability and shooting ability brought by his position at the free throw line have obviously lubricated the Pistons' offense!

This group of "matches made in heaven" also allowed fans to see the most gorgeous offensive Pistons team in years.

"Electing a charge d'affaires will injure the enemy invisible~" Ke Yan smiled, he already had the idea of ​​"eliminating the threat of the Pistons in the embryonic stage".

The Pistons were tough enough and played a high-intensity defense to suppress the Eagles' offense. However, due to the lack of a scoring point inside, the team's offense has not been able to open up, and finally lost 92:104 at home.

The Pistons, who were the Eastern Conference champions last season, have lost 5 games in the new season. This is their most difficult start in recent years!

After the game, the conflict that broke out between Garnett and McDyess became the focus of media attention.However, Sanders is Garnett's mentor, and the two have a deep relationship. Therefore, Ke Yan showed mercy at the press conference and did not deliberately target the Pistons.

Ke Yan did not speak out, but the league does not intend to let the Pistons go.Superstars like Garnett are the league's box office guarantee, and the Eagles are a "traffic team" that the league has high hopes for. McDyess's black hand against Garnett obviously touched the interests of the league.

A day later, the league gave McDyess an additional one-game suspension, which was a warning to the Pistons!

However, Ke Yan had no time to take into account the penalty of the Pistons.After returning from Detroit, he immediately met with Larry Sander and urged him to contact some target teams to strengthen the team's small forward position.

However, whether it is the Magic or the Jazz, the Eagles' offer of "Hassell + 07 first-round pick" is unacceptable!

哈塞尔的合同可是4年1700万！老鹰队战绩斐然，他们的07年首轮签大概率是28到30顺位，哪怕07年被誉为选秀大年，也跟这个位置的选秀权关系不大！

Wanting to use such a draft pick to get rid of Hassell's rubbish contract is a bit of a dream!

What's more, the Magic are now ranked third in the Eastern Conference, which is considered a direct competitor of the Eagles; the Jazz are temporarily ranked second in the Western Conference, and they hope to return to the playoffs after a two-year reconstruction period.The current situation of the two teams does not require a trade to destroy the team's good locker room atmosphere and chemistry.

"Unless you ask Hassel to generate some data, otherwise, it will definitely be very difficult." Larry Sand gave his own reminder. When Ke Yan made the request, he felt unreliable.

Not every team has a Billie King!

"Hey, I miscalculated! If we had known about Garnett's trade, we would have given away two draft picks and kept Posey." Ke Yan regretted.

This is a common problem of time travelers. They are infinitely confident in their draft vision and firmly believe that they can select the best players. Subconsciously, they will overestimate the value of the draft pick among the top players, and equate the draft pick with the rookie with the best pick. .

As everyone knows, the one that suits you is the best, and some immediate players are equally important!

Seeing Ke Yan sighing here and there, Larry Sander had a playful expression on his face.

Brother, you are now a Big Three team! 12 wins and 1 loss!League number one!You are already like this, can other teams still play?

That is to say, Larry Sander did not say this, otherwise Ke Yan would have replied to him, "The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan!"

"Kimi, don't worry too much. The season has just started, and there is still a lot of room for us to adjust the lineup! If Daniel Gibson and Paul Millsap can be trained, they may be sent out as trading chips to bring us supplements." Opportunities for strong small forwards. This is how trading is actually done. You can’t expect to use players you don’t use to trade valuable players for others. We have to improve the value of the players in the team before we can talk about it.” Larry Sand persuaded.

Do you still need to say this?Without me improving the trade value of Josh Smith and David Lee, the Eagles would not be able to trade for Garnett if they packaged together, believe it or not?

However, what Larry Sander said has some truth. If you want to clean up a "junk contract" like Hassel, unless it is matched with a high-quality contract, it is best to be a potential first-year rookie.

"That's the only way to go." Ke Yan crossed Ariza's name out of his trade list. Judging from the attitude shown by the Magic, they regard the Eagles as their direct competitors. There is basically no need to discuss this matter. .

On the Jazz side, CJ Myers is not completely out of chance, but it will not be considered until the Jazz reach their stable position.

From the perspective of strength improvement, the most reliable candidate is actually Sean Battier of the Grizzlies, and this has to wait for the right time.Because his salary is as high as 800 million, the Hawks can't match Hassel alone, and must add one of Milicic or Anthony Parker.

Ke Yan has no idea of ​​​​trading them, and the Grizzlies may not be interested in the three walnuts and two dates of the Eagles. Let's wait and see.

It may be the right time to wait until the Grizzlies completely put down their stature and sell their assets for draft picks.

. . . . . .

With an away win over the Pistons, the Hawks won a record-breaking eight straight games, two games away from their first 8-game winning streak in years.Under the eager expectations of the fans, the Eagles did not disappoint everyone. They defeated the Grizzlies and Nets 10:117 and 98:109 respectively, achieving 101 consecutive victories!Throughout the game in November, the Eagles scored 10 wins and 11 loss, ranking first in the league!

This is a start that can score 99 points.

To say that the point deducted in Ke Yan's heart was not the loss to the Magic, but Snyder's departure.

However, seeing that the Bobcats achieved a record of 2 wins and 1 loss under the leadership of Snyder, and Iverson was also "reborn" under his hands, apart from accidents, Ke Yan also felt a sense of pride.

Such an NBA that breaks away from the established routine is more interesting!
