Chapter 173: True Core (2nd Update)

Qin Yang didn't lie about the evaluation of the Pistons and Ben Wallace, but only told half the truth.

The other half is ...... Ben Wallace doesn't mean much except for defense and rebounding, and he doesn't have anything to say about free throws and shooting scum, and he's not as good as Howard.

The Pistons and Detroit are even less of a good city.

Detroit was once a working-class city, and the boom of the automobile industry forged the city, and countless blacks came here to pan for gold, breeding a lot of problems.

It's hard to describe the experience here, and hundreds of people here have left.

Detroit is also slowly falling into decay.

Qinyang doesn't like such a city, and he doesn't like to come here to play away.

The Pistons' lineup is also interesting.

The starters were Starkey, Ben Wallace, Ben Gordon, Villanueva and Jerebuko. With such a lineup, Qin Yang was also speechless. Since the original Pistons Five Tigers were dismantled by the Pistons' uniform group, Starkey has become the boss of the Pistons.

Even later, when Iverson came, the ball and tactics had to give way to Starkey.

A lot of fans don't know why?

But Starkey played really well that year, and he had the style of a big general in the playoffs, and the Celtics were terrified, and the limelight completely overshadowed Billups.

But the world is unpredictable, and then Starkey is out of the picture.

There are many such examples.

For example, this season, Qin Yang felt a little uncomfortable.

Because the defensive strength of all the opposing teams is based on Qin Yang as the core, the same is true for the Pistons in this game.

After Howard's jump ball victory, Starkey followed Qin Yang closely, and did not give Qin Yang a chance to shoot at all.

Under the basket, Ben Wallace is ready to help defend.

Players like Villanueva are also not discouraged in the slightest although they are helping to defend.

If the Knicks and the Suns don't have good defensive habits, and the Raptors don't have good defensive tactics and outside defensive players, Qin Yang plays so casually and easily.

The Pistons have everything. ,

The first ball, Qin Yang's mid-range stop-and-go jump shot, hit the board,

Starki defended well, but couldn't stop Qin Yang from scoring.

But after scoring, Qin Yang was a little depressed.

Because after Qinyang, other positions did not get a good position, Ryan Anderson was one-on-one with Villanueva in the high post and couldn't find a chance to shoot.

Under the basket, Ben Wallace and Dwight Howard were in position, and Qin Yang trembled when he saw the collision force.

Jerebko and Ben Gordon also defended well and didn't give the Magic a good chance at all.

Defense, mainly depends on the mentality of the players and the team's defensive tactics, which is evident in the Pistons, which themselves are a team that values defense.

Even if many of these players are not good at defense, the overall feeling of the Pistons is still that they are resilient defensively.

The Pistons attacked, and after halftime, Villanueva made a block, Qin Yang chased Stucky, who passed directly to Ben Gordon, who accelerated to break through.

When it came to the basket, Ben Gordon made a successful foul.

On the first ball, Howard was fouled, which made Qin Yang have a bad feeling.

The Magic team attacked, Qin Yang broke through with the help of Ryan Anderson's cover, and after getting to the basket, he attracted the defense, and Howard easily dunked and scored.

The Pistons attacked, and after covering, Qin Yang misplaced to defend Villanueva.

The height disadvantage is not large, and it is difficult for Villanueva to play singles and shoot iron.

Howard and Ben Wallace had strong rebounds, but they were stuck in a good position by Big Ben and lost the rebound, but fortunately, when Ben Wallace passed to Ben Gordon, Ben Gordon also hit the iron, and Howard got the rebound.

The Magic team attacked, and Qin Yang passed to Dwight Howard, who was in the important position.

Howard singled Ben Wallace and turned to hook hands......

Like throwing a discus, the basketball slid out of the basket, Big Ben turned around and got the rebound, and Qin Yang, who saw this scene, turned dark.

Howard laughed, like a fool.

It's very tiring to meet such a teammate.

The Pistons attacked, Starkey passed to Ben Gordon, Ben Gordon hit the iron, and Qin Yang got the rebound. After dribbling past half court, Qin Yang and Vince Carter blocked and dismantled, Qin Yang broke through and passed to Vince Carter, Carter went straight to the basket, the basketball was off, and Ben Wallace got the rebound.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides kept hitting the iron.

Very characteristic of the Pistons game.

Striking iron, striking iron, striking iron.

At the home of the Pistons, the scale of fouls is very large, some physical collision referees will not give penalties at all, and there is not even a warning, Qin Yang was knocked to the ground by Ben Wallace, and he didn't even blow a foul.

Obviously, the scale of the referee in this game is very large.

The projection-based team is difficult to play when it encounters a referee with a relatively large scale, and the Magic team hits iron one after another, and the game is very unsmooth.

The two sides were fouled one foul after another.

In ten minutes, Howard was fouled three times.

There was still a long time left in the game, and Howard was on the roof of the game, so he couldn't play the rest of the game.

As soon as Howard got off the court, the deterrence on the inside became weaker, and Gortat was also strong, but the defense and secondary offense on the inside were obviously not as strong as when Howard was there.

The Pistons played slowly, and the point difference was slowly expanding.

The Magic were 21-18 in the first quarter and had a two-point lead.

Both teams shot less than 40% from the field, which shows how fierce this game was, and the Pistons' tough defensive style was on full display in this game.

At the end of the first quarter, Qin Yang felt that something was wrong.

"Next, Bruce, increase your shots, especially from beyond the three-point line, and if necessary, make fouls and don't be polite to the opposing side."

Coach Van Gundy told him this during the break.

The team's tactics have changed again.

In the second quarter, Gortat and Blandonbas played, and Qin Yang played on the outside and Matt Barnes and Redick.

This lineup is the most suitable partner Qin Yang.

The first ball, after Redick covered, Qin Yang directly stepped back and hit a three-point shot, Redick is also good at three-point shots, attracting attention when covering, Qin Yang had a little space, and he didn't hesitate to shoot at all.

The Pistons attacked, and Starkey was entangled by Qin Yang again and didn't get a chance to attack.

Qin Yang's speed and reach came into play at this time, the interference was successful, and Starkey hit a three-point shot. Blandonbass got the rebound, and the Magic went on half-court offense.

Since it was a half-court attack, Qin Yang lowered the rhythm and played with a success rate.

Brandonbass blocked, Qin Yang broke through directly, and gave the ball to Bass on the right side, and Brandonbass squeezed away Villanueva and scored directly from mid-distance.

Blandonbas' mid-range shooting is extremely accurate, and if there is a good opportunity, Qin Yang will pass the ball.
