You are the pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 712 Heaven, or Hell
heaven, or hell
Ricky Davis's progress is obvious to all. In the first season, he was only the assaulter and perimeter defensive gate of the second team; in the second season, he became the team's sixth man; It doesn't suit him any more.

During the 7 minutes, there were no Mo Mengchen and Hill on the field for 5 minutes, and Davis took advantage of this time to become the core of the field.

Hold the ball at the top of the arc in positional warfare, and also dominate the defensive counterattack, leading the Pistons' second team to play a devastating offensive.

Davis is like the leader of the second unit, trying to make everyone else happy, except that Houston gets fewer opportunities, and he basically revitalizes the second unit.

37 is better than 20
If it weren't for the facts, no one would believe that the all-main Magic was beaten like this by the Pistons' second team.

Davis had 8 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in the first quarter. His performance was both comprehensive and impressive.

"Do you have any ideas?"

Suddenly, Mo Mengchen asked.

Hearing this, Hill said: "Ricky has indeed made great progress, and he can start any team other than the Pistons."

In Mo Mengchen's opinion, he was actually a bit conservative when he said that.

As far as Davis's combat power is concerned, if he is traded to the Magic, it is estimated that he can become a core player. Judging from these 7 minutes, no player on the Magic can compare with him.

"Aren't you worried at all?"

Thanks to Hill being able to sit still, this competitor is no joke.

"What do I have to worry about?"

Devil Mountain believes that Davis is not yet a threat to him. Although he has shown All-Star combat power, compared with Hill, the gap is obvious.

The second period rests.

Westphal replaced Houston, Wallace and Ginobili with Mo Mengchen, Hill and Miller.

Davis, who performed bravely, remained on the court.

"Ricky Davis averaged 17 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game this season. His growth has shared the pressure of Dor.Mo and Grant Hill."

"Yes, the Pistons are also the third team besides the Trail Blazers and the Lakers to have three players with five assists per game."

Tonight, Davis played quite well, making sudden shots well and in excellent condition.

Hill's condition was not so good, and he didn't feel like shooting, which limited his performance. The game restarted, and the Magic won the first place with Van Horn firing from the outside.

23 is better than 37
Mo Mengchen patted the ball across the half court, and Hill and Davis stood at the left and right corners.

As long as Mo Mengchen and Hill are on the court, Davis is very safe. He wants to start. He feels that he deserves a higher position, but he also knows who is the boss.

The more so, the weirder Mo Mengchen became.

If he really wants to start, Hill is his enemy, his competitor, and he should find ways to play a better game than him.

"why is that?"

Mo Mengchen thought curiously. The Magic backup guard Corey Alexander in front of him was trembling. As a backup, he did not have bright moments. He was traded from the Spurs to the Nuggets in the 9798 season, and once played the best game of his career—— He averaged 14+8 assists per game—unfortunately, it was only a flash in the pan. After the lockout season came, he also became mediocre after the lockout and became a substitute again.

If no one told Mo Mengchen, he wouldn't even know that the guy standing in front of him entered the league in the same year as him.

Alexander's pick is 11 places lower than Mo Mengchen's. He was selected with the 29th pick in the first round, but his career has not been smooth, but he has heard of Dor.Mo's reputation early on.

"Your defense is full of holes."

Alexander heard the opponent's comments, and in the next second, Dor.Mo took a simple attack with the ball and passed Alexander like a wind.

The Pistons played a V-shaped attack. In order to delay Mo Mengchen, Turkoglu, who was originally facing Hill, gave up Devil Mountain and turned around to the paint to help defend.

Letting go of Hill is absolutely right, because he didn't feel good tonight.

Seeing such a wide open space, Mo Mengchen couldn't convince himself not to pass the ball, even if Hill's three-pointer tonight regressed to three years ago.

The basketball was split, Devil Mountain caught the ball, glanced at the basket, jumped up and shot.

Although his touch looks like going back to three years ago, the past time cannot be turned back. Hill has long been different from what it used to be, and he has a strong adjustment ability. He made this open three-pointer from the bottom corner .

40 is better than 23
Hill smiled and stepped back. He wanted to give Mo Mengchen a high-five, but he didn't expect that Dor.Mo said to him with a sullen face, "If my defender lets go of me and chooses to help defend others, I won't be able to laugh."

Devil Mountain was hit and said angrily: "Next time, continue to pass the ball to me!"

Davis applauded Hill from a distance. He didn't seem to regard Hill as a competitor.

This is strange, he wants to start, but he doesn't regard Hill as a competitor?

If it wasn't for Mo Mengchen and Davis being teammates for three years, he had a certain understanding of this guy's IQ - he couldn't be stupid enough to play inside - otherwise, he would really think that Davis would switch to play. Inside, after all, his rebounding ability can be considered top-notch in the 3rd position.

The confrontation ability is strong enough and the physical fitness is outstanding. Before his body declines, he does have the potential to play the 4th position in space.

With a strong confrontation and defense at all costs, the Pistons began to find their form. For the Magic, which is 17 points behind, there is no more sad news than this.

The terrifying defense appeared in an instant, and the Magic have been playing against the Pistons.They obviously forgot that the Pistons are not a traditional running and bombing team. They pushed them into a hurry, and they can also win by confrontation.

The confrontation that exceeded expectations overwhelmed the Magic. The Turkish agent made a low-level pass error. Hill's defense contributed a lot. He did not give the opponent a trace of space to control the ball from beginning to end, and finally forced the pass error.

Mo Mengchen seemed to have known in advance that such a thing would happen. Before the ball went out of bounds, he had already appeared on the border first, picked up the ball that was almost out of bounds, and swept his eyes and saw Ricky Davis who was making a fast break. The force sent the ball to the front in an instant.

"Beautiful [-]-meter long pass!"

"Davis gets the pass, here we go, show time!"

Davis grabbed the ball, stepped into the paint, jumped forward, and dunked with both hands, causing the fans in the center of the water house to boo wildly.

After all, this performance dunk occurs on a fast break and has the connotation of humiliating the opponent.

Davis has indeed grown, but we must believe that the country is easy to change, and his nature is hard to change. He is still a jerk in his bones. When he heard the audience booing him, he not only did not feel embarrassed, but became more excited. He beat his chest as hard as Garnett , for fear that the opponent would not know that he had just dunked a good shot.

Rasheed stood up to applaud him, and Miller patted him hard on the shoulder.

"The chemistry between the three is better than expected."

Seeing the cooperation between Mo Mengchen, Hill and Davis, Westphal glanced at Houston.

Pat Riley once predicted that the future of basketball will be dominated by five all-round fighters, but in the Pistons, the positioning of the first, second and third positions has long been blurred.

Throughout the team, there is no pure No. 1 position.

Although Mo Mengchen has always played point guard, he has a height of 197 cm. His frightening shooting skills allow him to play a role in the 2nd position, and his increasingly powerful offense allows him to sometimes play the 3rd position.

The same is true for Hill. Since he developed a long-range shot, he can swing in positions one, two, and three. No matter which position the team needs, he can play.

As Ricky Davis develops his shooting, he is like a weakened version of Hill. He is very similar in all aspects, can hold the ball, can shoot three-pointers, and can organize positions.He's well-rounded, selfish at times, but harmless.

When these three are on the court at the same time, the Pistons have three ball-holding points on the outside, each of which can launch an offense independently and activate tactics.

This is not running and bombing. There are too many ball-holding points, and the time for positional warfare increases accordingly. Contrary to the "faster and more accurate" concept of the running and bombing system, the Pistons are now playing more like the Bulls Dynasty version of the triangle offense.

Three ball-handling points on the outside, and a high-post axis-Rashid or Miller.Coupled with pure blue-collar players like Wallace or Williams, it is indeed a bit interesting.

The presence of Alan Houston can allow the Pistons to play the original running and bombing, and Davis is a key for the Pistons to create a new system.

The run-and-gun system has been played for five years. The Pistons failed first and then succeeded. Now the world knows it. The world is studying their style of play. Every team wants to embarrass them.

Westphal didn't want to admit it, but just a few minutes ago, when Mo Mengchen, Hill and Davis were on the court to control the ball at the same time, it was the smoothest few minutes for the Pistons since the start of the new season. There is no way to stop such an attack, maybe even they don't know, this is not running and bombing at all.

No, maybe someone already knows, this is not run and bomb.

Westphal glanced at Mo Mengchen. Although the Pistons were going smoothly, his performance was not conspicuous. He used his shooting threat to help Hill and Davis create breakthrough space.

He is also thinking that the opportunity for change is right in front of him, and one step forward may be heaven or hell.

If you stay where you are, the situation will become more and more difficult.

Thinking of this, Mo Mengchen stepped forward and cut off Alexander's ball one-on-one. With the exclamation of the scene, his advancing speed slowed down. Davis overtook him and pointed to the basket. His body was full of performance. desire.

Mo Mengchen collected the ball with both hands, and gently threw the ball into the air.

As soon as the ball is released, he turns around. There is nothing wrong with his passing. If there is a turnover, it must be Davis.

Davis was fully aware of the harsh words Mo Mengchen would lash out at if he messed up the performance.

Mo Mengchen's encouragement to him is the reason for his rapid progress. Now, he will also prove that he has the ability to become the right-hand man of Dor.Mo and Devil Mountain.

"Davis takes off again!"

"A perfect aerial operation, the point difference has reached 25 points!"
