Chapter 91 (Ninety) Calm Chauncey

"Bordi Loga was intercepted twice in a row, which is really surprising." Kenny Smith sighed: "The Serbia and Montenegro star played very well in the previous four games, and he is the player with the highest voice in the finals MVP award."

"The Rockets have finally learned to play a tough defense. These Rockets players are very talented, but they are too motherly and not tough enough." Barkley said that the Rockets players began to be demanding again.

"Charles, you are so demanding of the Rockets. I think it's because you didn't make it to the finals when you were in the Rockets. This is naked jealousy." Smith joked.He won a championship when he was in the Rockets.

While they were chatting and laughing, the situation on the court changed again.Bodi Loga stopped playing hard this time. He patiently organized and found Rashid, who made a two-pointer with a fadeaway jumper.

"You've defended well, he's scored!" Billups dribbled the ball halfway and still encouraged Okur, and then he suddenly sped up and went straight to the basket.The Pistons players lost their tacit understanding for this unexpected ball, and many people surrounded and double-teamed, which hit Billups in his arms.It was another chance to pass to the outside line, and Okur hit a three-pointer 11:6.

"Chauncey is the most sober-minded person on the field, and he is indeed our chief wise general." Yuan Fei praised.

If Billups is the most sober person, then Bodi Loga must be the second sober.He still calmly observed the running position of his teammates, and suddenly distributed the ball to Hamilton on the outside.

Hamilton caught the ball and pulled up for a jumper, but out of the corner of his eye he caught Billups' disdainful eyes.Chauncey didn't jump to defend his shot. Instead, he gave him the middle finger. Although the gesture was fleeting, Hamilton caught it.

Missed three points!Yao Ming grabs the rebound.

"Too smart! Chauncey!" Yuan Fei couldn't help applauding, "Hamilton only made 26.5% of his three-pointers this season, and only made 0.9 shots per game. This shows that he is not very confident in his long-range shots. This is how he uses psychological warfare to destroy opponents' shots!"

After Billups and Okur picked and rolled, Okur ran outside to catch the ball and made a three-pointer, but unfortunately missed.

"The opportunity has come out, it doesn't matter if you don't make it, you will make it next time!" Billups still comforted his teammates loudly.

Tang Shuai looked at Changxi on the field and felt very relieved. This disciple who was usually a little silent finally woke up.He began to consciously command his teammates, comfort them, and assume the responsibility of the core of the leader.The powerful Pistons, the magical Bodhi Loga, and unprecedented challenges forced out the strongest leader Chauncey Billups.

Bodi Loga had difficulty getting the ball under Gerrard's defense around the front. Hamilton had the ball past half-court, and Billups let him go three steps away.All the way to the three-point line.A rogue face of "you can vote if you have the ability".

Hamilton was so angry that his face was livid, but fortunately he couldn't see it under the cover of the mask.He is also a well-known CIC master, how can he bear this bad breath.This time he raised the ball and aimed again and again, but Billups suddenly stretched out his hand to interfere, scaring him into a hasty shot, and he made a three-point shot.

This time the Rockets cooperated from the inside out. Yao Ming attracted the defense and passed to the air-cut Gerrard for a layup, 13:6.

Hamilton tried hard to adjust his mentality. This time he still used the familiar off-ball running to catch the ball and make a mid-range shot. Unfortunately, he missed a hit by a slight margin.

"I can't even make a mid-range shot." Billups just made up the knife and made Hamilton very angry.

Larry Brown called a timeout.He saw Hamilton's problem and corrected the player's mentality imbalance in time.

Hamilton immediately adjusted his style of play. Although his touch was still poor, he continued to break through the basket and cause fouls, which still achieved certain results.

上半场结束时，比分是48:37。比卢普斯得到了8+3+5，对于这个低比分的系列赛而言他已经发挥相当不错。而他防的汉密尔顿11投仅2中，靠着罚球得到了10分。

"Don't forget, defense is the foundation of our team!" Larry Brown yelled at the players in the locker room: "Don't lead the series and get carried away. Bodi Loga played too rashly, Hamilton was obsessed with singles, and the inside couldn't defend Yao. If we continue to play like this, we will lose the championship. Don't think about tying the score. From now on, we only need to defend every ball solidly and defend every offense of the Rockets. The score will naturally come back slowly."

"Please believe me, the offense only needs to be sorted out by me alone. The defensive end requires us to work together to fight." Even Bodi Loga showed anger.

"We believe in you!" The other four tigers echoed.

***
The Pistons took on a new look in the second half, and Rasheed made a three-pointer as soon as they came up, narrowing the point difference to 8 points.

Every Rockets player has felt the huge defensive pressure of the opponent. Even if the ball can be thrown in, it will inevitably consume a lot of energy.

Bosh missed a shot, Hamilton received a pass from Bodi Loga, and the CIC continued to hit the iron.Big Ben's tip-up still missed.

Jefferson missed a three-pointer, Prince continued to hit the iron with two points, but Ben grabbed the offensive rebound again and assisted Hamilton for a layup 48:42.

McGrady made an emergency stop and made a 2-pointer, and Rashid missed Bosh, but Daben grabbed the third offensive rebound in a row and made it up!In the first half, the somewhat dull Palace of Auburn Hills cheered again, and many fans wearing explosive hoods stood up and swayed.

"Brown really didn't spare his physical strength. He used the starting five tigers to death. Our bench lineup seems to be unable to support their starting lineup." Yuan Fei still admires the old Brown.

Tang Shuai shook his head to indicate that he would not call a timeout, and said, "Let's play another round and see."

This time McGrady broke through Prince for a layup and was blocked by Big Ben.The Pistons made a fast break, and Bodi Loga shook Jefferson and made an easy layup 50:46.

Seeing that the point difference was about to be evened out, Lao Tang finally called a timeout.After the timeout, Yao Ming and Billups returned to the court, and the Rockets resumed their offense with CTM as the core organization.

Billups faked a three-point shot, made two strong moves and passed it to McGrady on the right, who then passed to Yao Ming.The position of the ball was very deep, and Yao Ming easily dunked against Da Ben.

For the Pistons, Rashid singled Bosh and scored 2 points, 52:48.

Billups dribbles to the three-point line and faces Bodi Loga with his back.When Bosh came to the pick-and-roll, he accelerated without hesitation, opened the distance between himself and the defender, calmly shot the basket, and scored a three-pointer!

"Stable ball control, just the right time to break through, and precise shooting!" Rivers at the game scene couldn't help but praise: "This ball has the style of my youth."

Rasheed missed the singles this time, and Gerrard protected the rebound.

Billups repeated the same trick, turned his back to the defender again, called Gerrard to pick and roll, and then accelerated the breakthrough.This time the Pistons players became nervous and rushed over.Billups unhurriedly assigned to the right corner, Bosh empty.

Rashid quickly jumped up to block the shot, but Bosh made a fake move, shaking him to the ground before making a three-pointer, and the goal scored 58:48!

"This rookie can also shoot three-pointers? Still so stable?" Prince was puzzled.

The Pistons once again handed the ball to the stable Rasheed. This time he made a sudden stop for a jumper after breaking through with the ball in a high position and missed the shot.

Once again, Billups controlled the tempo, dribbling the ball slowly and loudly directing his teammates to move.Suddenly a straight pass was made to McGrady, and Prince happened to be blocked by Bosh who was running at this point in time.

McGrady made a jumper and scored, and the point difference widened to 60 points at 48:12.

The momentum of the Pistons' counterattack was extinguished again.
