Chapter 158 Bringing Offenses to the Same Level
The Heat took the lead in attacking, which was still a familiar tactic. Brad Miller responded from a high position, and others looked for opportunities.
Both Chen Mo and Eddie Jones were running, looking for open shots, while Grant and Blake were helping with pick-and-rolls.
However, what was a little different was that Richard Hamilton was in charge of defending Chen Mo today.
According to the arrangement of the Pistons, Hamilton should be the main scorer, while Prince is the flank defender.
Unlike other teams, when other teams face Chen Mo, they always send their best defensive players.
Hamilton's defense is not bad. After all, he is someone who can face Kobe, but he has to be distracted on offense.
Unexpectedly, however, Hamilton's defense against Chen Mo was in unusual harmony.
Chen Mo is good at using his teammates to cover, and through very skillful running positions, he seeks opportunities for easy shots.
Unfortunately, Hamilton is also this type of player.
If there is a difference, it is that Hamilton's mid-range shot is more stable, while Chen Mo's range is longer.
Moreover, the more experienced Hamilton, when encountering a pick-and-roll screen, can always bypass it better, and even predict it in advance.
After changing the running route several times in a row, Chen Mo Leng didn't even have the slightest chance to run.
To be honest, this was the first time Chen Mo encountered such a situation, and it was a bit unbelievable.
"Restrained?"
Eddie Jones was not very good at running without the ball, so naturally he didn't have a good chance to run.
What's more, it was Prince who defended him, a wing player known for his defense.
Seeing that there was no good chance, Chen Mo took the initiative to pull away and signaled for Eddie Jones to handle the ball.
Eddie Jones naturally saw Chen Mo's predicament, but as a veteran player, he naturally knew what to do.
Eddie Jones took the initiative to catch the ball, and asked Brad Miller's pick-and-roll, and took the initiative to go inside.
However, he obviously underestimated Daben's defensive ability, and was defended by Daben in time.
Regardless of whether he is not tall enough, he is lacking in the ability to block shots and protect the basket, but correspondingly, he has advantages in pick-and-roll defense and moving speed.
Eddie Jones made a forcible shot against Daben, but he was obviously surrounded by Daben and missed the middle distance.
Okur grabbed the rebound. That's right, it was Okur who beat Yao Ming so badly in the Jazz.
I have to say that even O'Neill didn't restrain Yao Ming that much, but Okur restrained himself to death.
Yao Ming's strengths are mid-range jump shots and post-up shots, and these two aspects are precisely what Okur is not afraid of.
He has a three-point shooting range, his movement speed is not too slow, and he has a good height and weight, so he won't be crushed by Yao Ming.
And his three-point shooting range made Yao Ming extremely uncomfortable, because Yao Ming couldn't defend it.
It's not that Yao Ming can't go out, but the team's tactics don't allow him to do so.
Defense beyond the three-point line can limit Okur, but what about Mosaic's inside line?
As far as the lineup of Mosaic is concerned, without Yao Ming's basket protection and defense assistance, it will be blown up in minutes.
Billups was really stable enough, and he didn't have the idea of rushing to play a fast break after getting the ball.
Instead, wait for the Pistons' players to settle down and prepare to execute the team's tactics. The first is naturally Hamilton's off-ball offense.
The Pistons are good at defense, but their tactics are relatively simple on offense.
First of all, it is naturally Hamilton's off-ball offense. When Hamilton can't find a chance, Billups will play.
It's just that Billups is not the kind of player with explosive offensive ability.
As for the big Ben on the inside and Prince on the wing, they are all choices in offense.
This also caused the Pistons to rely on tough defense to win some strong teams.
However, it is also possible to lose some games that can be easily won, especially when Hamilton and Billups feel cold.
Hamilton has an advantage in defending Chen Mo, but in the same way, it is not so easy for Hamilton to run out of the open space easily.
No, although Hamilton is more experienced in running off the ball, Chen Mo has better physical talent.
Especially flexibility and agility, allowing him to easily avoid pick-and-rolls and catch up with Hamilton.
However, relying on his advantage in wingspan, Chen Mo was able to get around Hamilton easily.
No, Hamilton has already taken the opportunity to catch the ball near the bottom line on the right, and he is ready to shoot.
But in the face of Chen Mo's overwhelming block, Hamilton's shot was blocked abruptly, forcing Hamilton to twist his body and pass the ball.
When Okur received the ball, time was running out and he failed to pass the ball, so he had to throw a three-pointer against Grant.
The hasty shot was naturally a strike, and Brad Miller grabbed the rebound with the big book on his shoulders.
The Heat's quick conversion offense, but under the defense of the Pistons, it seems that the chances are not great.
This time, Chen Mo didn't move at all, but took the initiative to catch the ball, planning to hit Hamilton hard.
It's a pity that he thinks too much, even Kobe can be tough, how can Hamilton's defense be bad?
After breaking through once but failing to get in, Chen Mo simply chose to pull out his hand, but unfortunately, he still missed.
Hamilton's height is even higher than that of Chen Mo, and he also has an advantage in defending such a dry three-pointer.
"Bang!"
Another strike, since the start of the game, the two sides have not scored a point. I have to say, it is really ugly.
No, Stan Van Gundy frowned, as if he was thinking hard about a way to break the situation.
As for Larry Brown, he's happy because that's how the Pistons play.
Grind slowly, erase the opponent's touch little by little, bring the opponent's offensive ability to the same level as your own, and then use defense to kill the opponent.
Looking back, Billups relied on his physical advantage to carry Blake and hit hard, causing a foul.
I have to say that Billups is very experienced and can often find the most correct method.
Billups made two free throws and successfully rewritten the score to 0:2.
When the Heat were attacking, Chen Mo still didn't find a good opportunity. Brad Miller played by himself, but he missed the shot with the big money.
But looking back, Billups continued to play a rogue, and sat down to eat Blake hard.
Blake wanted to die, not because he wanted to die, but because he wanted to bite Billups to death.
"It's too bullying."
The reason why Blake won the competition with Best and Mo Williams to get the starting position.
The main reason is because his defense is better, so that he will not become a loophole in the defense.
Best is too old, and Mo Williams' defense can be ignored. This is the key to Blake's start.
However, if Blake can't defend well, and even becomes the opponent's main attack point, what's the point of his starting?
