Yang Di stuck Ben Wallace with his back and held the ball high, and everyone opened up space. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Approaching the bottom corner, he thought of a back-to-back movement to finish, but he was worried that Big Ben's strong strength and physical aggression would cause him to be unable to turn around, and he was very likely to make a mistake.
Yang Difei's left-handed dribble outward.
Then he slammed sideways into Ben-Wallace's body with a "bang".
The strength of the mountains and seas was finally met by an equal opponent, and Ben Wallace stood on the ground with his feet spread out, like a rock, not moving.
However, the force of the rebound hit Yang Di's body, making Yang Di's steps a little confused.
Yang Di moved out, dribbling to open up space with Ben Wallace.
Big Ben followed and moved up, he knew that Yang Di now had the ability to shoot from a distance in his hand, and he didn't dare to let go.
Yang Di turned around and dribbled under his crotch, adjusted his rhythm, and changed the angle to break through to the left, with a larger area on the left.
Ben Wallace also moved over, and then Yang Di made a sudden stop and pulled up a jumper from mid-range.
Wallace jumped up and interfered, with a strong bounce, and his palm covered Yang Di's eyes.
Yang Di was interfered with and missed his shot.
The rebound was protected by Rasheed Wallace.
The Pistons unhurriedly pushed the ball across the halfcourt, and Billups pointed to the elbow area and motioned for Rasheed Wallace to move to the elbow area to cover off the ball.
There's no doubt that the Pistons' first offensive option would have been to cover guard Hamilton off the ball.
Like a slippery fish, Hamilton quickly began to run in the tall group, and from time to time he suddenly ran back, leaving Danny Granger and the center of the earth very tired.
When he was not paying attention, he was blocked again, and Hamilton went around the elbow area to catch the ball.
Yang Di could see clearly, when Hamilton made a shot, he went around and raised his hand to interfere, almost violating the shooting cylinder.
"Bell!"
also missed the shot, Chandler and Big Ben got stuck in the basket and were stuck out of the space by Big Bunsheng.
"Oh no!"
Chandler looked sideways, and Big Ben grabbed the basketball that bounced at him with both hands as if they were magnets.
Then the basket slammed into Chandler and jumped up to attack.
The moment he shot, Yang Di Huoran appeared above his head, aimed at the ball in his hand, and slapped it.
Yang Di in the air was stronger, and he put a lot of pressure on Daben from top to bottom, and even overturned people on the ground with the ball.
"This bastard!"
Big Ben was furious, and his face was dull.
The basketball was picked up by more Warriors players who rushed in, and rookie Danny Granger got his first positive stat of the game, a rebound in the backcourt.
The Warriors wanted to launch a fast break, but Danny Granger, who had just gotten the ball, was immediately caught by Rasheed Wallace and Prince, who didn't dare to pass the ball and held the ball in his arms.
Rasheed Wallace was overjoyed when he saw Granger holding the ball, and reached over and forced himself into Danny Granger's arms.
"What for!"
Granger felt Wallace's big hand and spun around angrily, trying to throw Wallace's hand out, but he couldn't shake him off, but the two of them were entangled, and it was even more difficult to tell whose hand the ball was.
"Toot ~"
The referee blew the whistle, and Yang Di and others ran over.
"Scrum!"
"Walk!"
"Foul!"
The referee hesitated, and then the referees discussed it and gave the two teams the ball.
"How can this be, he obviously fouled!" Granger was frustrated and fought for the ball with Rasheed Wallace, which was the Pistons' interior lineman, which was tantamount to giving the Pistons the ball for nothing and adding a turnover to him.
"Boy, you're too tender, even if you play for half a season, you're still just a rookie!"
Before the scrum, Rasheed Wallace had to provoke Danny Granger.
Danny Granger sneered: "Rookie at least has room for improvement, and you can only stop there." ā
"Oh? Then I'm going to see how far you can improve as a hairless guy. ā
Jumping ball, Rashid Wallace slapped the basketball away, a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth.
It turned into the Pistons' offense again, and the first quarter was almost ten minutes into the game.
The Pistons didn't finish their offensive play until the 20th second when Rasheed Wallace received Hamilton's shot from the baseline and made a straight-arm jumper.
Right in front of Granger, who switched defenses, he hit accurately.
"Bastard!"
Granger clapped his hands, he was not short, but Rashid's shooting posture was too difficult to guard, and it felt like his whole arm was straight over his head.
The Pistons led 4-0.
As soon as the game started, the Warriors had a little decline, and the tactical link was completely blown out by the Pistons.
It turns out that the Pistons during this period have a healthy team that is stronger than the Warriors, even if the Warriors have two S-level players.
Halfway through the first quarter, Yang Di received a pass from Byron Davis, broke through and caused a foul by Rasheed Wallace, and went to the free throw line to make one of two free throws, which broke his scoring drought.
The Warriors' best performer was Byron Davis.
Byron Davis was also able to ensure a certain amount of breakaway aggression under the Pistons' high-pressure defense, and sent some beautiful passes to try to string the team.
The Pistons lead the Warriors 13-9.
The score difference is not big at all, but the situation is bad.
The two sides began to change their bench players one after another, and Granger played poorly, playing 7 minutes, scoring 0 points on 0-of-2 shooting, 1 rebound and 0 assists, and committing 2 turnovers.
The Warriors were replaced by the likes of John Salmons, Monta Ellis, Ariza and Foyer, while the Pistons were replaced by the likes of Antonio McDyce, Carlos Arroyo, Carlos Delfino and others.
Among them, McDyce is a veteran, Arroyo is in his prime, and Delfino is a third-year shooter.
The Pistons' bench team has followed the steady style of the starters, and the key is on the defensive end, with Ben Wallace and Hamilton leading the team.
Monta Ellis was tasked with assaulting the Pistons' interior and found no particular advantage when he faced Arroyo.
Arroyo, who is 1.88m, is also a fast defender, thin but not afraid of confrontation, not very good at tackles, but also not very out of position.
Monta Ellis was caught by the Pistons after entering the interior and passing the ball out, and the route was spotted by Hamilton.
Hamilton steals the ball that passes to Salmons.
In the frontcourt, when Salmonds and Hamilton were facing off, they were secretly elbowed to the chest by the seemingly thin Hamilton, and he almost lost his breath, and when he came back to his senses, Hamilton had already completed the easiest three-step layup.
A group of young players were dizzy by the endless confrontations here, and their rhythm and morale were greatly damaged.
