Chapter 243: The Road of Rage
After starting the Pistons' all-win frenzy, the Pistons' winning streak unconsciously came to 18 games.
This shocked the entire sports media even more, and the Pistons, who have always been taken seriously, have unknowingly won so many consecutive wins.
Larry Brown always thought that the team was inconsistent, but it seems that the Pistons haven't lost many games. The reason for this is simply because the Pistons have a key gentleman: Osborne Michael Jean, who has repeatedly turned the tide when the Pistons are in a desperate situation, and single-handedly dragged the Pistons back from the edge of the cliff.
That's why the Pistons have such a long winning streak, which has broken the Pistons' longest winning streak of 17 consecutive wins, and the winning streak continues.
Larry Brown was about to faint with excitement when he heard the news, but he calmed down, for a head coach of his level, only the championship is the only criterion to test his success, after all, he has basically won all the honors that the head coach can get, but only the championship is an eternal pain in his heart.
For him, everything but the championship is a floating cloud, and he has now reached the point where he has to use the championship to prove himself.
Thinking of this, Larry Brown came to his senses again and continued his career of creating a system, only the system was created, not to mention other benefits, as long as he could exert the power of this system, it would be enough to make him famous in history, if he could win the championship, with this system, the Pistons would not say that they would build a dynasty team, but at least they could maintain super competitiveness for more than five years.
However, the Pistons still lack a stable interior defensive gate, and he believes that the Pistons' Finals opponents are either the Lakers' Shaquille O'Neal, Karl Malone, or the Spurs' Tim Duncan.
Larry Brown's idea is very good, but the Pistons don't have a lot of chips, and unless the Pistons owner is willing to give generously and is willing to pay the luxury tax, he will sell all the Pistons' interior lines, and he can't get a suitable interior lineman.
Larry Brown felt a little painful when he thought about it, obviously his dream was in front of him, but because he had no money, he was delayed, which made him very unwilling.
However, the reality made him helpless, but thanks to the Pistons' offense playing extremely fluently, basically no team can defend Osborne alone, although Osborne's back play is not very strong, but Osborne's shooting is accurate, especially the three-point shot, once it is accurate, it will be like rain, Larry Brown as the head coach is also very afraid.
Osborne, as a three-point shooter, can make his head coach scared enough, of course, Larry Brown is just afraid that others will deliberately target him, which increases the chance of injury, so from this point of view, Larry Brown does not want Osborne to always play desperate basketball, which is easy to make the opponent have some unnecessary thoughts, and then produce some out-of-control behavior.
Osborne checked the schedule, which showed that the opponents in January were not easy to mess with, most of them were teams in the west, although Osborne did not admit the general pattern of the league that the West was strong and the East was weak, but this was a fact, and he could not admit it.
He didn't admit it because of his own position, not because of anything else, and if he was in the western team, he would definitely strongly agree that the west is strong and the east is weak.
They will face the Portland Trail Blazers in the Tear City on the first day of January, which is nothing to pay attention to, but one person mentioned his interest, and that is his future teammate Rasheed Wallace, which is embarrassing for him.
This made Osborne very worried, but a sentence from the system changed his mind, "Hey, big idiot, your worries are purely unnecessary, in real history, this game was also very anxious, and it was from this game that Larry Brown saw Rashid Wallace's amazing interior defense, so you don't have to worry about them being beaten by you at all, and they also have a guy you hate the most, and that's Zach Randolph, he's a small forward killer, especially a guy like you." ”
As soon as Osborne heard it, he felt that this game was not easy to play, especially his good days were numbered, that Zach Randolph was also a tough forward killer, and he liked to bully a thin guy like him the most, and his basic skills were solid, although his back hitting skills were not good-looking, but practical, so Osborne felt that he couldn't stop that guy at all.
But Osborne was worried for a while, and then calmed down, after all, Osborne has never been worried about things that have not happened yet, and he is now not what it used to be, no longer the ** silk on the field, and now he is also a figure with a head and a face, how can he be cowardly before fighting, and he has just laughed at it, the chosen son of the same class, so for his honor, he must play a wonderful game, even if he loses, he must lose with dignity.
So what is the dignity of losing, that is, you must score the highest score in the game, so that even if you lose, you can walk out of the basketball court with your head held high.
And Osborne doesn't think that the current Pistons can't beat this Trail Blazers team with low offensive ability, so Osborne is more calm.
Early the next morning, everyone gathered at the meeting place on time, and Larry Brown saw that everyone was on time, and he also felt that the execution of this team was getting more and more beautiful, and it would not be long before he could sweep the army.
Larry Brown also said passionately: "Last month, we made history and broke the Pistons' longest winning streak, and we won a lot of accolades for it, are you happy?" ”
The players also shouted cooperatively: "Happy, but we will continue to work hard and create more brilliance." ”
Hearing that the whole team is so ambitious and ambitious, Larry Brown is also very satisfied, but he still said: "Yes, we have only one goal, that is, the championship, only the championship can be worthy of us, of course, we also have to show our absolute strength in the regular season, so as to show that we have the absolute strength to win the championship, so in the next time, I need you to start a journey of domination, the road of rage, see who cuts whom." ”
The five starters were the first to respond: "See who kills whom, we are the strongest." When the others heard this, they shouted along.
Larry Brown listened to it and waved his hand, so everyone flew straight to Portland. (To be continued.) )
