Zhiba NBA

Chapter 175

Milicic made a gorgeous move at the basket, passed the ball around the waist from behind with his left hand to his right hand, and hit a layup with his right hand.This was his second goal of the game, and Wang Zhizhi failed to react to it at all.

In fact, veteran Pistons fans are secretly sighing a fluke.Milicic is left-handed and can't shoot with his right hand at all.After a season, he didn't score a few goals with his right hand.

As Parker missed a three-pointer at the buzzer, the first half ended. At 45:43, the Pistons were only 2 points behind.

"I really didn't expect that this black player who can hardly hit the ball really has two brushes." Yao Ming complained.

"Yeah, he obviously has poor offensive skills, but suddenly he hit a wonderful goal that can be ranked in the top ten goals of the week. People can't see how good he is." Wang Zhizhi defended Milicic and suffered.

"His talent is very high, it's obvious." Yuan Fei affirmed, "But he doesn't have much confidence in playing. Except for occasional flashes, most of the time he is very hesitant and dare not make moves."

"After all, this guy is only 20 years old, 2 years younger than Yao when he first joined the league." Curry said: "Although he is talented, Milicic is far behind mentally."

The corner of Tang Shuai's mouth twitched, as if he had an idea: "I heard that your analysis is good. I think you might as well use a scheming against this kind of player and destroy his self-confidence! That's it."

***
The Rockets want to destroy Milicic's self-confidence, and the Pistons naturally want to help him build self-confidence.When Bodi Loga came on the court, he kept encouraging this compatriot: "Dako, you played well just now, keep it up. I will still pass the ball to you, wait for the ball under the basket, and then dunk the ball in!"

"En!" Milicic blushed, he never thought that he would be praised by the big brother for playing well.This kind of situation usually happens in his dreams, not in the finals.

Bodi Loga did what he said, he rushed into the three-second zone to attract the double-teaming of the Rockets' three players, and cleverly stuffed the ball out of the gap.After Milicic got the ball and was unguarded, he jumped with all his strength, so that the height of his fingers was far beyond the basket.He dunks the ball so hard that the backboard vibrates.

The fans at the Palace of Auburn Hills cheered enthusiastically. Not only was it an exquisite pass and a gorgeous basket abuse, but also the home team finally tied the score!
Yao Ming singled Milicic, this time he did not choose to shake his footsteps but used his strength to force his opponent under the basket.Milicic's confrontation ability was much worse, and he was pushed by Yao Ming and made an easy shot.

"It's okay, come again!" Bodi Loga still encouraged him.

The Pistons' offense also adjusted its strategy, and Brown sent Rasheed, who is good at shooting.The tactic he designed is that no matter who Yao Ming defends against, he will let this player pull out and perform a pick-and-roll with Bodi Loga, pulling Yao Ming out of the penalty area, so that the Rockets' inside line is very empty.

But Milicic pulled out the pick-and-roll, and Yao Ming just took two steps forward, but he didn't completely defend against it.

"You didn't learn the lesson of the first half." Bodi Loga was secretly surprised, and still passed back to Milicic outside the three-point line after the pick-and-roll, and the latter made a three-pointer.

At this time, Yao Ming had rushed back to grab a rebound. He believed what Wang Yuanfei said at halftime: "Milicic only made about 20% of his mid-range shots this season, and he didn't even make a three-pointer in the entire regular season. So I believe the previous shot was blind. Let him shoot and we will defend the inside."

Milicic clearly saw that Yao Ming didn't care about his shot at the moment before the shot, his heart was shaken, and the action of the shot was slightly deviated.

The strike missed, and Yao Ming protected the rebound.

The Rockets also used tactical arrangements to hit the basket, but Bosh passed Wallace and took a big cap from Milicic.The ball hit a strong smash from the Serbian guy and flew directly to the audience, as if it was a volleyball match.

"Chris, don't worry!" Yao Ming hurriedly pulled Bosh over to warn him: "His reaction speed is very fast, don't rush to disturb him with fake moves. Leave it to me to beat him with your back."

Milicic held the ball at the free throw line, and Yao Ming simply stood under the basket and released a distance of 2 steps.

"You voted!" It was Billups who called out. He knew that a modest gentleman like Yao Ming would not provoke his opponent, so he did it for him.

Milicic's fragile heart was shaken again, and he missed the free throw line.

Yao Ming made a strong dunk with his back, 49:45.

Old Brown was forced to switch back to McDyess, and Milicic walked off to the applause of the audience.He sat down silently, carefully recalling the game just now.This is probably the first time he has been entrusted with such an important task on such an important occasion as the finals. If he was an ordinary bastard at the end of the bench last year, his performance just now has upgraded himself to an important rotation that has high expectations.

Bodi Loga is right in thinking, only games can make young players grow rapidly.No matter how talented a player is, he still needs to exercise.If you can't play, you can't realize your talent.

In the next game, the two sides can be said to meet each other, and they will meet good talents.Yao Ming showed his prowess and continued to attack the inside line, but the Rockets' outside line could not match Bodi Loga, and the Pistons also played with a degree of relaxation under his organization and scheduling.When the game entered the last 3 minutes, the Pistons temporarily took the lead at 89:91.

Bodi Loga's breakthrough caused a foul by Parker, who came to help defend, and he made two free throws.The Rockets requested a timeout and replaced Billups to prepare for the final battle.

Yao Ming turned around and shot again causing a foul by Rasheed Wallace. Tianzun finally graduated with 6 fouls and left the field.Brown intends to fight to the end with the combination of McDyess with 4 fouls and Campbell with 5 fouls.

Yao Ming made two free throws.

On the crucial shot, Hamilton circled around Campbell and threw off Chauncey Billups, caught the ball and made a jump shot, but Bosh extended his arm to block the shot.

Hamilton jumped high, his hands were sharp, and his hands were as stable as ever.

"Yes!" he shouted.

It's a pity that this time the shot went out of the frame and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.

"How is it possible?" Hamilton looked astonished, and blamed himself in disbelief: "It's all my fault!"

Bosh secretly wiped his fingertips, it really hurts!The ball landed right on the fingertips, but it was worth it.Sealed this crucial goal, the goddess of victory will favor the Rockets.

It was the Rockets' strong inside play, and Campbell could not seal Yao Ming, but Yao Ming was already very tired, and he had played for a full 45 minutes.Suddenly he staggered, as if his body had reached its limit.Campbell was overjoyed to see this, and started to steal the ball.

Yao Ming passed the ball to the rear just before he fell down. Although he didn't have time to turn his head to confirm the position of his teammates, he believed that Bosh would definitely appear at the free throw line!
Sure enough, Bosh did not live up to Yao's expectations. He adjusted slightly after receiving the ball and shot.McDyess and Hamilton came from both sides at the same time, both trying to reach out to stop Bosh's shot.But Bosh didn't hesitate at all, and threw the ball with confidence.

Milicic, a fellow student, seemed to have given Bosh some inspiration, and he played more resolutely and confidently.He learned a lesson from Milicic's failure - believe in yourself!

The goal was scored, and the referee also called Hamilton for a thug foul.It's a pity that Bosh missed the penalty, and the two sides battled to a 93 tie!The game entered the final minute and a half.
