The Nets' defensive strategy is still to guard the perimeter and shoot inside.Even if the Pistons grabbed the rebound in the frontcourt, they were not afraid, and immediately fouled and sent two Wallaces to free throws.Rashid is okay, shooting 76 free throws, and Big Ben is only 427 in this year's playoffs, which is worse than the "Big Shark" O'Neal.The Nets let the players go head-to-head on the offensive end, giving up the tie-up and focusing on Hamilton.Prince defended Wang Jun, Jefferson took over the task of the main attack, and the efficiency was higher than the last game, and he had the advantage of flexibility in the upper four position and the strength of Hamilton.One of the most important aspects of the Nets team is not to fight for rebounds in the frontcourt, and players who can't shoot immediately return to defense, limit the Pistons' fast break, and the joint defense is in position.TV5 commentators analyze the game.Yu Jia said: "The Pistons grabbed more rebounds than the Nets in every frontcourt game, made more free throws, and scored more in the restricted area, but they fell behind by a large margin this time."
The Nets' style of play this season has changed the way people think about the game of basketball. ”The mainstream perception is that being close to the basket is more efficient, and controlling the rebound can control the game.The Pistons have a lot of rebounds, the offense is close to the basket, but it is the Nets who control the game.The goal of the Nets is to force the Pistons into positional battles, not caring if they can grab a frontcourt rebound in a game.In fact, all season, they didn't see grabbing frontcourt rebounds as a necessary task.Counterattacking is the magic weapon of the Nets to win, and if you want to better launch a counterattack, it is more important to grab rebounds in the backcourt.In the eyes of the coaching staff led by Lawrence, it is not cost-effective to grab frontcourt rebounds, especially with the Pistons who have a big book to grab frontcourt rebounds.The Pistons were dumbfounded as soon as they fell into the positional battle, and among all the teams that made the playoffs, the Pistons, who averaged 901 points per game, were the second-to-last offense, just above the Rockets' 898 points.Of all 29 teams, the Pistons also rank sixth in the league in points per game.The other four are the 76ers, who are suspended by "Big Dog" Robinson and Iverson who is injured for 40 games.A bunch of wounded.There are no stars, and Hinrich is the Bulls with the core of the perimeter.Hurt Carter, a group of unnamed fringe people playing Raptors.Lacking attackers, the Jazz have been playing all day out on pick-and-roll and defense for ten years.In short, the Pistons win by defense.If you can't prevent it, you'll be in trouble.Not to mention a strong defensive team like the Nets, the joint defense of the weak team is not easy to break.At 51-31, the Nets led by 20 points to end the first half.Wang Jun took three more shots, all of which were missed, and he scored 17 points and 2 rebounds in the half.At halftime, Brown continued to emphasize defense, leaving Ben alone to grab the rebounds.Others quickly return to defense.On the offensive end, he still asked for more blocks.Nothing else.Added a singles option, if the opponent plays the No. 4 position on Rodney, or when Wang Jun and Jefferson defend the low post, Rashid can ask for a heads-up.In the second half, the Nets' inside line Collins, Scala Brien, and Aaron Williams took turns, and as long as the opponent entered the restricted area, regardless of the inside or outside, they immediately fouled.Shooting is OK.There is no way to make a layup or dunk.Soon the number of fouls in a single quarter reached four, and the Pistons were completely unable to play fast breaks.In the backcourt, someone can interrupt the offense by fouling Big Ben without the ball.Send Big Ben a free throw.Zhang Li said with a smile: "The Nets are really tight in this defense, blocking the restricted area, and the Pistons can't shoot outside." ”"Big Ben's free throws are the Pistons' biggest weakness, and so many good opportunities have been wasted for him."
Yu Jia sighed.Big Ben's fans may be angry when they hear it, and they will scold the two commentators for not understanding the ball, but this is the case, the Pistons' soul on the offensive end is completely a wastewood.At the end of the third quarter, Big Ben made 4 of 12 free throws, only one close-range goal, scored 6 points, and grabbed 16 rebounds.Wang Jun was heavily guarded by Prince, scoring only one three-pointer in three shots, scoring a total of 20 points, and was replaced to rest.In the final quarter, the Pistons sent in Mike James to add a three-point shot to chase the points.The Nets changed formations, Korver and Rodney guaranteed three-point firepower, Jefferson and Martin continued to play fast breaks, and Kidd was in charge of organizing.The Pistons bench is on par with the Nets, and Korver and Rodney can't shoot accurately, mainly relying on Jefferson.This series ran into a double Wallace combination, and Martin was also reduced in the efficiency of defense, and the air cut style of play was not good.Billups was aggressive today, didn't hit a lot of shots, and Rashid was out of the fire.Five minutes later, Wang Jun and Kittels returned to the court, and Kidd went down to rest, which was an unexpected adjustment.Lawrence saw that Kidd was in poor shape, and the bold substitution was not due to his lack of physical strength or injury.He only scored 5 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists on 2-of-13 shooting, and was the most iron-clad player in the game.Kidd took the towel and sat down, his face gloomy.The news rated him even lower than in the previous two seasons.He wants to prove his strength, but Billups is not a vegetarian defensively, and he has the same style, constantly fighting, close-to-the-eye, and interferes with shots very well, and it is difficult for him to score.Even if he wins, eighty percent of the media will spray him today, and if he continues like this, his core position will be questioned more.There's no way for Kidd, his scoring ability is really not good.The Nets attacked, and Wang Jun came on the court and reached for the ball on the Hamilton side."
I bet you can't."
Wang Jun said to Hamilton.When the ball passed, he leaned back, turned to the left, and held the ball with both hands at 50 degrees on his right side.It may not be much trash talk, but Hamilton was misled by him and immediately jumped up to block it.After jumping up, he found that Wang Jun was still on the ground, just shaking.Damn, this person is not real, Hamilton couldn't hide if he wanted to, Wang Jun bumped into him and pushed the ball to the basket.The ball didn't go in, the referee blew the whistle, and the penalty was clearly fouled.Wang Jun hit both free throws, 81-64, his 22nd personal point.Hamilton was very angry and asked for the ball on the periphery to single-handedly challenge Wang Jun.Wang Jun was one and a half steps away from him, and Hamilton dribbled a step and made a quick stop jump shot at the left three-point line, and the shot was fast, Wang Jun stepped forward and reached out to interfere slightly, and the ball went in.81 to 66.Kittels dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Wang Jun went to the left side to ask for the ball, and continued to play Hamilton.He didn't talk trash anymore, took a step to catch the ball, used his right foot as the axis, turned to the right, and made a quick shot at 45 degrees, and the ball wiped the board into the frame.This time, Hamilton was a little hesitant to jump, for fear of being fouled.83-66, 24th personal score.Zhang Li shouted: "It's another turn to shoot, Wang Jun scored a lot of moves today, Hamilton can't prevent it, and the Pistons must let Prince play." ”Yu Jia said with a smile: "Today Wang Jun is the key to winning, if Prince guards him, he will find cover, and he is too smart." ”"He's playing so well, not like a rookie at all."
Zhang reasonably agreed.What is reasonable to say in heads-up is nothing more than that he can't score or not, and Wang Jun obviously restrained Hamilton.The Pistons also knew this, and after Rashid missed the three-pointer, the defense gave up the joint defense and switched to mixed defense, leaving Prince to go with Wang Jun
