Kassel got the basketball, and Ji Guoqiu stopped at the top of the arc, waiting to cover the aliens.

The tactics that the Clippers play the most now are blocking and dismantling and interspersed running, and the axis of both tactics is Ji Guoqiu, especially the latter, who must have his ability to respond to be a threat.

The Pistons point guard is the well-known Billups, with strong strength, fast speed, good explosiveness, and a good point guard, so even if there is Ji Guoqiu to cover, the aging Cassel can't break through the opponent.

Ji Guoqiu received the ball at the free throw line, and the Clippers couldn't block and dismantle, and began to play the No. 2 tactic around Ji Guoqiu, Artest stood on both wings, and the other three began to run......

The Clippers' first attack option is for Ji to run out of the open spot, and Cassel and Posey can also have an open spot if they can do so. If the three can't get out of the open space, as they are now, when they encounter the Pistons, who have one of the best defensive systems in the league, then implement a backup plan, with Artest playing on the wings, relying on his strong body, and using the beast's individual ability to score points.

If even Artest can't play strongly, Ji Guoqiu's own mid-range shot is the last choice, and the elder Dunleavy has arranged enough offensive options for the team, and the priority in execution is also clearly divided.

Puslin, the youngest of the Pistons' five tigers, defends Artest, the Pistons little prince who defended Kobe Bryant during the 04 Pistons championship, is most afraid of a power player like Artest, which is exactly one thing and one thing.

When Artest received the basketball strong Prince, Ji Guozhi had not given up the run, and was still moving to find opportunities, at this time, except for him, the other three stopped.

Artest was going to come on his own for the first ball, and the Pistons fans hated him, so why didn't he hate them?

However, the Pistons' defensive system would not allow Artest to bully Prince like this, and Artest was quickly caught by McDyce and fell into a two-man blockade.

Ji Guoyi's persistent running position was rewarded, the rotation of the piston was run out of a gap by his running, Artest knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to please him, so he could only unwillingly pass the basketball to Ji Guoyi.

Rashid Wallace made up for the defense, but he let go of Ji Guoqiu under the basket, and at this time, Ji Guoqi had a better chance if he passed to the basket, and the latter would have a chance to dunk the ball.

However, the two have already discussed, and he wants to take a good number of jù during this time, as for the reason, of course, someone has a spring......

Ji Guoshame ignored Rasheed Wallace, who was making up for the defense, and still jumped and shot the basketball from the middle distance, roaring that Tianzun's defense was a step slower, he had a chance to shoot, and he was confident to shoot.

"Huh!"

Rasheed Wallace's slow block didn't help, and the basketball went into the net to give the Clippers two points first.

The Pistons turned to offense, and Billups broke through Kassel directly at the top of the arc, which was another bullying of aliens for old age and decrepitude, and Ji Guosha had to come up to make up for the defense.

Mike Days received the basketball, Ji Guoqiu rotated, the All-Star power forward ruined by injury, did not play with Ji Guoqiu, but used his flexible feet to shake up a shooting space, and then softly shot the basketball with his hook hand......

Ji Guoqiu stretched out his arm, but McDyce's shooting timing was very good, and he reasonably used his body as a block, which made it very difficult for Ji Guoqiu to block, and the basketball hit the board and drilled into the basket.

"This guy's skills are so good, it makes my defense feel awkward that I can't say." Ji Guoqiu caught the basketball under the basket and helplessly sent the ball in the backcourt.

"They've been fighting for so many years and have a lot of experience, but we can bully them physically." Ji Guoyan responded in his heart.

Kassel received the serve, dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and this time did not try to break through, and passed directly to the high position Ji Guoqiu, and came to the weak side to act as a fixed-point shooter.

Ji Guoqiu turned his back to the basket, Ji Guoqiu ran over and took the basketball hand by hand, after Ji Guoqiu handed over the basketball, he turned around and quickly inserted it into the basket.

At this time, telepathy came in handy for the two brothers, the basketball was passed into the restricted area from a very small gap, Ji Guoqiu caught the basketball without looking back, and then quickly jumped to dunk with one hand, easily scoring two points.

The Pistons fans of "Auburn Hills Palace" found it incredible, the cooperation between the two brothers just now was too fast, not only the players on the Pistons court could not react, but the fans also saw the cooperation of the two through the slow-motion replay.

"How is it possible, how can he see the basketball coming over without looking back?"

"Maybe it's been rehearsed beforehand, right?"

"But when the ball was passed, it was obvious that in order to avoid interception, it could be seen that the passing height was temporarily changed, and the Chinese who slammed the dunk did not look back how could he know where the basketball was going?"

Pistons fans discussed the Clippers' offense, but in the end they couldn't figure it out, so they could only be attributed to being twins, and cooperation was tacit understanding.

Old Dunleavy always had such doubts in private, the two brothers had such a cooperation more than once, and he had nothing to explain, and it was also regarded as a special cooperation skill of twins.

"These two little guys are really tough." Rashid Wallace shook his head and stood on the baseline to serve.

"This pass is a bit evil, these two little guys are not easy to deal with." Billups had just seen best from the outside, and the top-five point guard in the league was wondering how ghostly the pass had just been.

"Some of them still use me as a template." Rashid Wallace is sometimes not as short-tempered as the legend says, perhaps the really short-tempered people are like this, usually seem to be very talkative, and they don't know when they suddenly go berserk, which is terrifying.

At the end of the half, at 6:20 of the first quarter, the Pistons took the lead in calling a timeout, and the score was 12:8, and they trailed by four points.

During this period of time, the Pistons scored very little in positional battles, and the Clippers' starting lineup, after the position, looked no worse than the Pistons, who knew this best, especially in the mid-range and paint areas, the defense was ironclad, and the Pistons couldn't find a way to penetrate the Clippers' defense in half a quarter, and the scoring efficiency was extremely low, if it wasn't for Billups hitting a three-pointer, the Pistons would have scored less.

Charles Barkley admired the Clippers' defense, and during the pause, he excitedly said, "Kenny, do you know how long it has been since I've seen a team that excites me so much on defense alone?" Except for the Spurs and the Pistons in previous years, there is no team that makes me feel this way, but the current Clippers make me feel like my blood is boiling, they don't rely on a tactical system to defend, it can be seen that their defensive system is not mature enough, but their individual defense makes my adrenaline rush sharply, like eating Viagra. ”

Kenny Smith wisely didn't ask what Viagra was, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and he coughed and asked, "The Houston Rockets are also a strong defensive team, as well as the Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz, these teams don't make you feel happy...... Bah! I mean, they didn't turn you on? ”

Charles Barkley looked a little embarrassed after the other party finished speaking, and replied to himself: "The Rockets' defense gives people a rigid and dull feeling, without the Pistons and Spurs to retract and release freely, it looks like there is a urinary disease." Although the Clippers are not mature in the system, their individual defensive ability is above the average player, and their defensive awareness is clearly a bit of a talented guy. Look at their spontaneous fill-in, defense, and rotation on the court, especially the two little guys on the inside, they are the axis that constitutes the Clippers' defensive system, it's hard to imagine that this is a pair of rookie insiders, the Clippers are really shit lucky. ”

The Pistons' Philip Sanders is a good coach, and the Clippers' defense is beyond his expectations, but it is not without weaknesses in his eyes, such as defense beyond the three-point line and a 15-foot defense that the Clippers are not doing well, and there are many opportunities to exploit.

In the NBA, no team's defense is incomprehensible, the Clippers' defense tends to be inside and mid-range, and they can't do it on the outside, but to the Pistons' embarrassment, their outside offensive ability is not good, only let Billups try to break the lineup, Kassel is the biggest hole in the Clippers' defense.

But what Sanders didn't expect was that Dunleavy Sr. replaced Cassel with Black Parker after the timeout, and instead of using Blevin Knight, he sent Black Parker, who had a better defense.

Old Dunleavy is also a cunning guy, he knows that the other party will definitely make a fuss about their point guard weaknesses, and the short Brevin Knight may not be able to escape the fate of being Billups** after he plays, Mr. Key But as soon as he met Chris Paul, he beat Xiao Zhengtai, and even Queen Bee hurt when she met Billups, not to mention the shorter Blevin Knight?

Billups has a very high ball quotient, and when he saw that it was Black Parker who was defending him, he immediately changed the coach's original intention and was ready to use a breakthrough to deal with this guy.

In less than three minutes, Black Parker committed two fouls on the court, and Dunleavy Sr. turned black off the court.

Billups has a very high ball quotient, Mr. Key is best at reading defense, analyzing the shape on the court, when he encounters a small guard, he will hit hard on his back, and when he encounters a tall guard, he will break through and make fouls, especially his chasing three-pointer, just chased and shot a three-point shot behind Black Parker's butt who had already committed two crimes, poor Black Parker thought he was going to break through, he was completely defenseless, and he was completely broken by Billups......
