Forward to the basket

A rout, this is the final definition of the Detroit media for the third game of the second round, and this almost indirectly determines the future fate of Sanders. It is estimated that it will be difficult for this guy to stay next season.

Although the management of the Pistons did not express such meaning to the public, anyone with eyes can see how depressed Sanders was after that game, even a little depressed.

During the interview, this guy didn't say a few words, and most of the time he answered irrelevant questions.

In fact, most of the people who can interview Sanders after the game may want to know what excuses this guy has after losing the game. This is a complete defeat, and there is no reason at all.

From the confrontation on the field to the final score, they were completely suppressed by the Celtics. Could there be any excuse for such a game?Look at Sanders' deadpan response, and you'll have your answer.

Even Murphy said, "That guy is really pitiful. He lost the game by a big score, and then he had to be besieged by reporters." But now, no one will provide Sanders with any help. If he loses, he loses up.

Moreover, Xie Miaomiao didn't have a good impression of this guy who was always thinking about how to plot against Chen Feng, so during the interview, she also gave Sanders a few words with a stick, and it was right to vent her anger.

You know, at the end of the last match, Xie Miaomiao, who was sitting in the press box, heard a group of people shaking their heads at Chen Feng's performance, as if this kid was only so capable, she was already upset Now, it's so easy to catch the opportunity to fight back, how could I miss it, are women so easy to mess with?

Murphy could only mourn in silence for Sanders. It was not good to offend anyone, such a woman who even scared Chen Feng.

But even if Xie Miaomiao didn't bother Sanders, I'm afraid the media from Detroit would not let that unlucky guy go, not to mention that there were many reporters from Boston among them, who were preparing to launch a Jedi counterattack.

After the last game, many people said that the end of the Celtics has arrived, and they are waiting for the holidays. Even if you are the dark horse of the playoffs, it is time to fade away .

Regardless of what others think, at least those Detroit reporters think the Celtics' mission is over.

Those Detroit reporters made such predictions completely from the position of the leader of the Eastern Conference, but now the slap slapped by the Celtics really made these guys lose face.

And when facing the eyes of those reporters in Boston, the media in Detroit really felt very humiliated. Such a fiasco, just looking at the score, is simply not a contest at the same level.

In the past few seasons, I have been used to being the leader of the Eastern Conference. The feeling of being able to look down on the opponent has become a habit of the Detroit media.

And looking at the rapid rise of the Celtics, not only Detroit, but the traditional powerhouses in the East can feel a lot of pressure. This is obviously a dynasty that is rapidly recovering energy.

Someone even said alarmistly, "Is Boston going to have another eight consecutive championships?"

Of course, it is estimated that the current league will not be able to breed a team that has won eight consecutive championships. It takes enough luck to win three consecutive championships, but the Celtics have come out like this, which has indeed brought a very big impact.

The Nets, Heat, Cavaliers, Pistons, these teams bear the brunt of the threat, a potential opponent who has the ability to compete with you for the position of the leader in the Eastern Conference, no matter who it is, you must be careful to guard against them.

It's just that no one thought that the Celtics' rise was so fast. They just recovered and ended up in the second round of the playoffs. Let them run in for another season or two. How far can these guys go?

Maybe even the greatest prophet can't give an answer, things on the basketball court are really uncertain.

But there is no doubt that the current Celtics are a challenger. They are provoking all opponents who are pressing on their heads in their own tough way, and they have the ability to overthrow those people.

It's like someone doubted whether the Celtics could make it to the playoffs, and then these guys fought to the fourth place in the Eastern Conference. They all said that they might not be able to pass the Raptors. field bloodbath.

Now some people say that they are destined to be swept out by the Pistons, the result?Now they are leading with a total score of 2:1. Although it is not the final outcome, these beasts just like this kind of face-slapping sport.

Therefore, in order to avoid being ridiculed by those guys with practical actions, the best way is to keep your mouth shut.

Unprecedented failure, this is the most painful lesson for the Pistons in recent years, and Sanders, as the team's head coach, cannot shirk his responsibility, and he did make mistakes.

Being completely calculated by Rivers, this is the biggest problem with Sanders' on-the-spot command. His reaction has never escaped the opponent's consideration, which directly caused the Pistons to be completely passive and eventually collapsed.

The strength of the Pistons' players is not a problem at all. At least from the perspective of Detroit fans, they have the ability to reach the Eastern Conference Finals, or even the Finals, but no one would have thought that they would run into big trouble in the second round.

Although the first game of the Celtics gave many people a shocking feeling, the playoffs are not a decisive game. The Pistons have enough patience and experience to slowly recover from the start. disadvantage.

The Game [-] win just happened to prove this point, the Pistons can't be the kind of team that can be easily picked up by others, but Sanders ruined everyone's efforts in the third game. .

Although it was more like an accident, no one will say anything good for Sanders. After all, this guy messed up a lot of things, especially when the score was behind, his substitutions and tactical adjustments seemed terrible.

Not only was there no way to control the Celtics' scoring frenzy, but also because of continuous substitutions and adjustments, the team's offense could not find a rhythm. Even Billups fell into a vortex of singles later.

The Pistons have always been known for their ability to execute. The coach designs tactics, and the players solve the problems on the field. As a result, the coach has a problem first, and then the players can only passively obey the orders. Is there still a way to not lose?

Anyway, no matter who is watching the game now, they will point the finger at the unlucky Sanders, thinking that this guy messed up the rhythm of the Pistons, and he can only be a scapegoat in the last fiasco.

Don't look at the media in Detroit being defensive, but that's only for the players. Even the old Brown was criticized at the beginning, let alone Sanders, who is an unqualified successor, and criticism is inevitable.

In the past, it was just criticism or small-scale fault-finding, but this time, Sanders was greeted with overwhelming curses. Although this was not a game played in Detroit, some people still shouted slogans to get this guy out, especially Detroit The media fueled the flames, and many newspapers were full of various accusations.

Even the media in New York was very unkind to join in the fun, "We have always thought that Thomas is the worst head coach, but now it seems that at least Sanders is with him, and their level is about the same!"

It is probably also because the New York media heard the news that Thomas was going to leave get out of class, and they were really afraid that Dolan would bring this guy back to New York to harm the fans after Sanders was fired, so they hurriedly wrote such an evaluation.

New York fans still want to live in peace for two days, so they don't want Sanders to come and do harm again.

It is estimated that no head coach will have such a great pressure, especially in the already brutal matchup of the playoffs. Sanders has not collapsed now, and he is already quite strong.

But even he himself may be aware of the situation he will face in the future. Even if he can barely pass through this round, then after the end of the season, what awaits him is definitely a dismissal letter from the management.

Regarding this point, Sanders himself has no doubts at all. If the Pistons want to restore the declining trend of the past few years, then a head coach with a tough personality is indispensable, and Sanders is obviously not competent.

"If it was possible to do it all over again, I might really pass up the opportunity to come to Detroit. Here I am just an appendage of someone else. Even in Minnesota, I never really controlled the team."

Although this passage was spread intentionally, no one can prove that Sanders himself said it, but it is not surprising that Sanders can think so. He really has no sense of belonging in Detroit.

The fans here are talking about the honor brought to them by the old Brown. Even after Sanders led the team to achieve the best regular season record, this kind of argument has not subsided. Someone will stand up and say, the old Brown made it to the finals twice and won a championship. What did that guy do?

Maybe now Sanders is really envious of Rivers' treatment from the bottom of his heart. In addition to being able to hold an annual salary of more than 100 million higher than himself, that fat guy also has the most relaxed coaching environment.

From the fans to the management, Boston did not put pressure on Rivers. Even before the start of the third game, Rivers could have time to adjust his tactics according to his own ideas. It was not just a risk.

If the team needs stable results, then Rivers will take into account many things, just like Sanders' situation, but with Auerbach sitting behind, the Celtics' goal is naturally the championship.

This season they also know that they still have shortcomings that need to be made up for, but if they can kill the Pistons one game, it is just one game. Anyway, Rivers is sharpening his knife with the Pistons.

Rivers doesn't have as much pressure as Sanders, so this guy can cause trouble for the Pistons without hesitation. Even if he has a non-mainstream starting lineup, no one will say that he has a convulsion, and this guy really won. , this should be the most buggy point, and this is an irrefutable victory with a big score.

But both Rivers and Thibodeau understand that this is just a confrontation with their opponents at home.

The Celtics still need to win at least two games to finish off the Pistons, but the adjustments they can make are almost exhausted. The sudden killing moves of Novak and Chen Feng cannot always work.

Even if Sanders was an idiot, he wouldn't fall into the same trap over and over again. What's more, Chen Feng's little trick wasn't a killer move at all, it was just a surprise attack that caught his opponent off guard.

It's just that those guys' head-on blow really knocked the Pistons a little dizzy, but Rivers knows very well that it is not so difficult to overthrow the Eastern Conference leader now with just the few people at hand.

However, the sense of team that Chen Feng showed on the field gave Rivers a surprise. He thought that this kid would attack singles, but he forgot his slick personality from the street.

And that kid's learning talent is the same as his offense, there is a feeling of making the blade sharper and sharper.

With 9 assists, even Rivers said that when the animal committed crimes, he would never show mercy.

If there is no way to retreat, Chen Feng might really be willing to fight you with the bayonet, just like what this guy did in the second match, he rushed forward with his head covered, until both the opponent and himself were soft-hearted.

But once there is a retreat or he can yin the opponent, this kid will definitely be more active than anyone else. During these three days of adjustments, everyone else is resting, only Chen Feng is immersed in training with Takanian.

The suffocating feeling of the last game made this kid wait for a counterattack against the Pistons, and now he has indeed done it, and Rivers can guarantee that the current Detroit fans will definitely not forget this kid.

This kind of confrontation actually consumes a lot of physical energy, but Chen Feng was able to hold on, and in the next game with Rashid and the others in the battle for the basket, he firmly blocked the opponent's goal .

The Pistons' rebound was completely snatched by this kid alone. The opponent wanted to suppress and maintain the offensive efficiency, but Chen Feng interfered in the interior, and he desperately grabbed rebounds, which disrupted the opponent's deployment.

Under the pincer attack of two big men, rushing for rebounds, using his strong body to withstand the opponent's cuts, and occasionally pulling to the outside for pick-and-rolls, Chen Feng behaved more like a blue-collar player in this game.

But that wild boy had no complaints, and he even played the most time in the team. He was not seen in the crazy scoring offensive chao, but in hand-to-hand combat, he was able to take the lead.

At least Rivers never thought that the stunned little guy could make such an adjustment and execute it so perfectly. This big victory was all because of the room for movement that this kid created on both ends of the offense and defense.

Pierce and Rondo's entry routes were mostly due to Chen Feng's blocking. If there were people who said before the game that other rookies were qualified to compete with Chen Feng, then now, this kind of saying has disappeared.

He can attack and defend, and this kid needs to do something to get you to a perfect extreme. Isn't this kind of rookie worthy of the title of the best?Can those other guys be better than him?

At least Rivers will say in a firm tone, "Chen Feng, definitely deserves the best rookie!"

And it's not just Rivers himself saying that, but all Celtics fans will say that. Listen to the chaotic applause around the kid when he is off the court, and you will know his appeal. .

This is not the commercial value that Falk calls, but the courtesy that a city can give a player.

Celtics fans have always sided with the players, and it was the same this time. When someone cast suspicious eyes on Chen Feng, then this guy would become Boston's enemy and be ostracized by the entire city.

"Maybe only Larry Bird and Russell have this kind of treatment, but that kid has only been here for a few months. My God, even Paul is jealous. He is really a favorite."

When Murphy saw Chen Feng started to be worshiped by those die-hard fans of the Celtics, he could only half-jokingly sigh, this kid's luck is simply too bad.

The head coach is willing to use such a wild boy, and the team's famous players are even more willing to give advice, and Auerbach hand-picked it. This kind of luck is probably the only one in the history of the Celtics.

But that kid didn't waste his luck. His progress over the past season is simply amazing. Even Murphy, who went out with the team when he had nothing to do, had to say, "Chen Feng's talent is the same as his hard work." The decisive factor for the boy to enter the starting lineup, if Rivers does not use him, he will definitely be punished by God."

But as Auerbach said, "If you want those fans to cheer for you, then you should do what you should do first. If you want to conquer the fans, you'd better conquer your opponents!"

Now that Chen Feng has done it, he shocked the Detroit fans and gave Sanders a headache. But he is just a rookie who has been on the streets for a few years and has just entered the professional league.

Others commented on him like this, "Alston, the emperor of the street, spent a few years in order to survive in the league, but now Chen Feng, who is also from the street, only spent a few months."

Needless to say, from the day Chen Feng entered the NBA, this guy was destined to become a phenomenal existence. Can anyone stop him?You have to ask God about this.

At least Sanders can't answer this question now, because this unlucky guy doesn't know how to deal with that wild boy until now.

Being cheated for two games, the trouble left to the Pistons now makes everyone in Detroit feel a headache.

Sanders really didn't know that he was going to be fired. Is it because of the existence of this kid, that rookie who is like an animal, damn it, who can be so enchanting as soon as he comes out?This still makes people alive!

If the Pistons are capable of reaching the Eastern Conference Finals, then the existence of such an x-factor like Chen Feng makes all this seem less clear...

(This time the playoffs are almost over, mainly to prepare for the next season, so, looking forward to the transfer, guess who will come, guess right and there will be a prize...)
