Rasheed Wallace was blocked by Lore Deng and scored just seven points at the end of the third quarter.He belongs to the shooting big man, a weakened version of Nowitzki.This type of inside line is not afraid of people who are as tall as themselves, because flexibility prevails, and opportunities can be created by relying on speed and soft touch.Rashid is depressed when he meets a player with a height of about 205, and he can't break through, and he will be disturbed all the time when he moves and bounces faster against his opponent when he shoots at someone.In the fourth quarter, Skeles continued this style of play, letting Hayes and Chandler take turns partnering Lore Deng, and David Lee sat on the bench as a spectator.The coaching staff agreed that David Lee could not be allowed to play for too long, otherwise there would be no defensive intensity.It's okay to relax a little in the regular season, but defense in the playoffs is something you can't afford to lose.The periphery is also fixed with three people, Du Hong is no longer playing, he is 185 tall, and it is easy for opponents to jump in front of him.The Pistons needed three points, and Sanders arranged for Rashid to shoot in a misplaced position, but he didn't feel good and missed two shots under Wang Jun's interference.In the counterattack, Wang Jun received the ball in the front court and threw it, scoring two three-pointers, which were a certain distance from the three-point line, and Hamilton couldn't cover it.Rashid misplaced to defend Wang Jun counterattacked, got a little closer, and was turned around by him with a big stride, and scored a layup.Driven by Wang Jun, the bulls always took the initiative, and the score difference could not be narrowed.Except for Billups, no one from the field has shot 40 percent.Prince was the worst, scoring just five points on 2-of-10 shooting.In the last three minutes, the Pistons, who trailed by 15 points, had to bet on three-pointers, and Hamilton, Rashid, and Billups missed shots one after another under interference.Wang Jun made a foul in the counterattack and hit both free throws to seal the win.100-85, the Bulls won away and won the match point.Wang Jun shot 15-of-26 from the field and 8-of-13 from three-point range.He was 9-of-9 from the free-throw line and finished with 47 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.Lore Deng had 15 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, Nocioni had 18 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists, and Hinrich also had 11 points and 7 assists.The Pistons had only three players in double figures, with Billups shooting 12-of-18.5-of-8 three-pointers.He made 5-of-6 free throws and finished with 34 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.Hamilton finished with 22 points, two rebounds and two assists on 7-of-17 shooting, 0-of-2 three-pointers and 8-of-8 free throws.Rashid shot 4-of-12, 1-of-5 from three-point range and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line.He had 11 points and 10 rebounds.Big Ben had 4 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals.Prince had 5 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, and the two of them had a terrible performance.After the game, Rashid was stubborn, saying that the Pistons would not collapse.Billups also said: "The series is not over and we are not going to give up hope. ”The Bulls coaches and players kept a low profile and didn't say anything like winning, and it was not a good habit to stand up indiscriminately.But they all had the same idea in their hearts, which was to end the battle in the sixth battle.Back in Chicago, the Bulls players were training hard.Hold it up.The uniform team also did some work to arrange interesting little sessions to arouse the enthusiasm of the fans.They set up a session called "teeforthree".Relieve.It's easy to stir up emotions among the fans.As soon as the Bulls made a three-point shot, the fans in the audience stood up and cheered, and if the three-point was not scored, the fans collectively let out a sigh of regret.There is a certain tradition in this link, and the bull is not the first of its kind.In addition, the home stadium also set up a pizza delivery link, which is to give free pizza to fans during the pause.As a Chicago specialty, deep-dish pizza is something that people never get tired of eating.Game 6 started on time, and the Bulls changed their starters, allowing Lore Deng to play the No. 4 position and partner Chandler on the inside, with David Lee on the bench.For the Bulls' lineup, the Pistons did not come up with a good response, it was difficult to break through one-on-one on the perimeter, and after blocking and dismantling, they had to interfere with the spring man Chandler under the basket.Chandler doesn't block much, averaging just 17 per game, but his interference shooting ability is among the top among centers and his defensive efficiency is high.As the season progressed, the Bulls' outside rotation got better and better, and the Pistons' three-point shot was dumb.In the first quarter, the Bulls players did not have a high shooting percentage, and Wang Jun was tightly guarded by the bag, only taking 5 shots and scoring 4 points.The Bulls lead 19-17.In the second quarter, Wang Jun and David Li took the bench, and the other three were Hayes, Joan Barry, and Du Hong.The three outside players can shoot three-pointers, and the two interior lines are also good at grabbing rebounds, and the Bulls open up the situation on the offensive end.Joan Barry hit two three-pointers in the bottom corner when Wang Jun was trapped, breaking the opponent's joint defense and becoming the X-factor of the game, and the fans cheered for him together.Although Joan Barry is old, moves slower and has never been a star, he is the one who has to defend as long as he is on the field.The Pistons underestimated him and paid a terrible price for it.Six minutes later, David Lee, who had a good touch, was replaced, and in order to ensure the defence, Rashid was immediately on the sidelines as soon as Rashid came on.If it was Rashid during the Trail Blazers, he might consider single-handing Lore Deng, but in the Pistons, he is no longer the boss of the team, and he must listen to the coach and pull out to cover his teammates.After the pick-and-roll, Lore Deng continued to play to his strengths, relying on excellent lateral movement and reach, and the defenders had a hard time getting past him.Not to mention Billups, James was also uncomfortable being defended by Lore Deng.Counterattacks from Wang Jun and Nocioni ensured offensive firepower, and the Bulls led by 15 points into the fourth quarter.The Bulls didn't use foul tactics in this game, because it was unnecessary, and the Pistons didn't dare to let Ben Wallace receive the ball inside, just covering and defending on the perimeter.Others tried their best on the offensive end, and they didn't even have time to catch their breath, but Big Ben could think about life to his heart's content after taking cover.In the second half of the final quarter, in order to strengthen the offense, Sanders put Big Ben on the bench and used a two-guard strategy, Prince was on top of the No. 4 position, Rashid was in the center, the formation was stretched, but the defense became worse.Big Ben began to think off the court: If the Pistons don't give me a high salary, where will I go in the summer?
The competition in the East is smaller, and he can be selected as an All-Star, but the taxes in Texas in the West will be a little less, and the Pistons will make more money, and the Pistons still can't completely break through the Bulls' defense, and the small-ball tactics have restrained their style of play.The Pistons lack an interior offensive point and rely on defense to win the game, even if Rashid goes to the low post to attack, it is inefficient to play Chandler.Barkley applauded Chandler's defense, commenting: "When Chandler first renewed his contract, many people said that 6 years and 75 million was a bad contract, and a blue-collar worker was not worth such a high salary, but judging from this series, Chandler proved his worth."
He's got a lot of strength on the defensive end. ”Zhang also praised the Bulls' defense."
I think the Bulls have the strength to compete with any team, even if the main players are young, and they are the strongest."
Wang Jun made Hamilton foul on the counterattack, hit both free throws, and scored a three-point shot in the face of Hunter to seal the victory.In the final two minutes, the Pistons still trailed by 17 points, and Sanders replaced the main force and surrendered early.At 103-86 in the final game, the Bulls eliminated the Pistons 4-2 and took the lead in the Eastern Conference Finals.s:
