From today on is the king

Chapter 182 181. Hurry Up, Rookie

Enemies meet, Ratliff and Ben Wallace come to the middle of the court to jump the ball with red eyes.

Now let alone the last time the two received several punches from each other and their faces were disfigured, let’s say that Ben Wallace, Mutombo and Ratliff, who are the favorites for the best defensive player this season, will fight each other when two of them meet each other.

As early as 1998 and 1999, Ratliff was selected to the second team of the All-Defensive Team. Last season, Ratliff was the leader in blocks. This year, Ratliff will almost occupy this honor, and the second in the block list is Ben Wallace. The two teams are not only direct competitors, but also in terms of personal honors!
The Eagles still sent their regular starting five tigers.

The Pistons also continued to send Chucky Atkins, Michael Curry, Jerry Stockhouse, Clifford Robinson and Ben Wallace.

The Pistons lineup, except for the small forward Stackhouse, is all defensive champions with poor scoring ability. Coach Carlisle likes egalitarianism. Of course, if there is a top scorer like Dirk Nowitzki or O'Neal, he also likes it.

Nearly half a season has passed, and the Pistons' play style, lineup stability, etc. have been perfected this season, and the statistics are basically finalized. They averaged 93 points per game and conceded 90 points per game. On the basis of a decent offense, they maintain the top three defensive efficiency in the league. Only the Heat and the Lakers have higher defensive efficiency than the Pistons, and even the Spurs can only rank fourth.

As the whistle blew, Ben Wallace leaped high to win the jump ball over Ratliff, giving the Pistons the lead.

The field of Big Ben enveloped the field, and the tempo of both sides dropped crazily.

Pistons players slowly overwhelmed the audience, and that rhythm was called a slow one.

Stackhouse pushed forward. To be honest, he doesn't like this rhythm. His statistics and performance are far lower than last season, but if he can win, then let's play like this.

By the time Stackhouse got beyond the three-point line, the time had already taken about ten seconds.

If he followed Stackhouse's style of play last season and went straight in and let him shoot 21 42 directly, but not now, if he made a lot of shots, he would be pushed to the bench. Last season, he averaged 34 minutes per game. Last season, he averaged only 20 minutes per game.
Coach Carlisle's Pistons and Larry Brown's Pistons are both defensive teams, but there is still a little difference. Larry Brown likes to defend, but he is also happy to have a scorer like Iverson or Hamilton who just catches the ball.

Coach Carlisle prefers teamwork to play pick-and-rolls, which to a certain extent curbs the rhythm suppression of his own center.

The Pistons started with a high-post tactic. With 10 seconds left on the shot clock, the Pistons started running. Stackhouse passed the ball to Michael Curry. Michael Curry held the ball at the top of the arc.

Michael Curry made a counter-tune and threw the ball in. Chucky Atkins took the ball and raised his hand under the basket and made a fake move, which made Ratliff pounce on Chucky Atkins, a small guy. The killer is scary no matter what era he is. Chucky Atkins, who is only 180, can average only 5 points per game and still sit firmly in the starting position for many years, relying on his ability to tear apart defenses.

Clifford Robinson on the outside followed from behind, Chucky Atkins passed the ball to Clifford Robinson, and Clifford Robinson scored two points with an easy throw.

The Pistons retreated like a tide after scoring a goal, fast and balanced. Clifford Robinson, a 36-year-old veteran, and Ben Wallace, a short center, both ran extremely fast and had excellent defensive discipline. They laid a solid foundation for Larry Brown to take over in the future. If Larry Brown came to the Pistons, he would be able to win the championship.

The Eagles came over with the ball, Jason Terry just passed halftime, Michael Curry mentioned that Jason Terry was pressed outside, and at the same time Chucky Atkins on this side interfered with Raheem receiving the ball, Jason Terry couldn't pass the ball to Raheem as usual.

The Pistons are suppressing the rhythm of the field intentionally or unintentionally, using various methods to suppress the offensive rhythm of the Eagles by going around the front and switching defenses. As for their own offensive rhythm, it only takes time.

Neither the pick-and-roll nor the running positions could create an easy scoring for teammates or create space for Raheem to one-on-one.

All you need is to play fast!The rhythm the Hawks want is the exact opposite of what the Pistons are looking for.

The Pistons came over, Michael Curry passed the ball to Chucky Atkins, Chucky Atkins took the ball to attack, looked up, and Raheem was already standing in the defensive position, Chucky Atkins was short, but he was very strong and powerful, Raheem stuck up and made physical contact with Chucky Atkins, Chucky Atkins came over and bumped into Raheem, Chucky Atkins bumped into Raheem, but he staggered and lost his balance. Ratliff's meatball impact was enough to meet Raheem, and the time was almost exhausted. It was passed to Stackhouse. Stackhouse made a strong step back and missed a jumper. Ratliff took the backcourt rebound and immediately threw it to Jason Terry.

This time the Eagles broke through the slow-paced defensive system built by Ben Wallace's Big Ben field, but it was still a bit short. He rushed to the inside of the Pistons alone, but he had no teammates to respond.

The two teams are exhausted like this!
Most of the players on the two teams are defensive. The Pistons have a combination of the best defensive lineup inside. Ben Wallace is the number one favorite for the best defensive player. Clifford Robinson is 36. Among the forwards, his defensive efficiency and role are second only to Duncan, Garnett, and Doug Gristie. Above-average, very good in a defense built around Ben Wallace.

For the Hawks, Ratliff is the leader in blocks and the top three defensive center in the league. Muhammad has excellent defensive awareness and dares to fight hard. Raheem is also a tall player with excellent offensive and defensive skills at the small forward position and even excellent rebounds, blocks, and steals.

The inside lines of the two teams were made like iron barrels, and no one could penetrate them. Ratliff and Ben Wallace came in one by one, or both sides were slowly grinding.

The Pistons fans watched lively, and more than 1000 million fans in front of the TV began to doze off, but after spending money, most of them still watched patiently.

Didn't the Eagles still have a wave ratio? If you watch the game, Rahim can't play inside. The highlight of the Eagles is the double waves in the backcourt!

Finally, after playing for more than eight minutes, the two teams drew a score of 10 to 8, and the referee took advantage of a dead ball that finally came and called an official timeout.

In the scene where Coach Kruger was numbly watching Liu Mang take off his training uniform and try his hand without saying hello, the fans in front of the TV finally wept with joy. Except for the Atlanta fans, it was the first time that other people thought this rookie was so pleasing to the eye!
