Chapter 501 [Can be singled out, what tactics can you play? 】
The Pistons couldn't defend themselves at the beginning, which was not a good sign, reminding head coach Sanders of the loss when he played against the Bucks. The Bulls' offensive method was similar to the Bucks, and the players were stronger.
Sanders did not substitution, arranged a joint defense, gave up grabbing frontcourt rebounds, and ensured the defensive formation.
The only thing that has not changed is Prince and Wang Jun. The two defenders will have something to do with Wang Jun on the side of the side.
After the timeout, the Pistons immediately defended two attacks, but their attack could not be opened and they always shot under interference.
Once the shot is missed, there will be misplacement immediately on the court. Wang Jun beat Billups alone, Hamilton made two mid-range shots, and broke through in the counterattack to create a foul by Ben Wallace, making both free throws.
The Bulls led 25 in the first quarter, with Wang Jun scored 2 rebounds and 3 assists.
In the second quarter, Wang Jun did not rest and came on the court to bring substitutes. His teammates were Du Hong, Nosioni, Sangela, and Chandler.
The Pistons sent Lynch Hunter, Tony Delk, Morris Evans, Ben Wallace, and McDyce.
When playing against the Bulls, James used the entire game to make up for the team's lack of attack power. Wang Jun's physical strength was comparable to James, and the coaching staff did not let him rest. It would not be too late to substitute people when there were too many fouls.
Sanders didn't expect Wang Jun to continue playing, and sent veterans Delk and Hunter to form double defenders, with obvious loopholes in defense.
Wang Jun attracted Evans to defend, double screenings from the inside opened up space, and Nosioni beat Hunter in the middle.
This is another surprise fight. Nosioni has a strong impact and outstanding jumping power. How can Hunter defend a C-capable defender?
Nosioni hit the basket with the ball and scored continuously. Chandler cut behind the pick-and-roll, and scored twice in misaligned the basket.
The Pistons did not arrange for the double-teaming of other people, and was fooled, and the score difference quickly widened to double digits. Ben Wallace could only be responsible for one person, and he was unable to do anything.
Sanders replaced Prince to strengthen defense, while the Bulls strengthened their confrontation.
Du Hong misplaced the match against Daben and ignored anything else, and directly grabbed it and prevented the opponent from going to the basket.
Da Ben began to abuse the nerves of the home team and the home team fans, referred to as "the abuser" for short, and only made 4 free throws.
Wang Jun didn't keep making so-called, and he waited until he staggered the counterattack Prince before taking action.
In the second half, he received the ball with a fast break. He faced Hamilton and jumped back and made a jump shot. Facing Da Ben, he took him to the frontcourt to stop and scored a three-pointer. He scored 4 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the half.
Wang Jun only made 7 shots, hit 5 goals, and made three free throws. One point was Rashid's three-second violation of defense. He executed a technical foul free throw.
The Bulls led by 56 to 4 by 5 points.
All those who support the Bulls are excited. As long as you win a away game, the advantage will be on the Bulls' side.
Zhang Heli smiled and said, "The Bulls are not the main attacker of Wang Jun today, and the Pistons are caught off guard. Nosioni is so fierce when he rushed forward. He and Luo Er Deng both played very well."
Yu Jia sighed: "Hayes and Chandler shared their playing time and completed the defensive task well. These four people ensured their physical strength and could all play efficiently. Wang Jun played more of a deterrent role on the court. If he didn't run all the time, he wouldn't have any problems with his physical strength throughout the game."
Zhang Heli smiled and said, "I think he may score a triple-double today. As long as his teammates can keep playing so well."
In the locker room, Skeles praised the players and prepared to use his tricks in the second half.
The Bulls can use the "shark-cutting tactic". Although they do not have superstars in the interior, they have six players.
Skeles did not intend to let Marik Allen, Bryan Grant sit on the bench and watch the fun all over the game, and the two appeared together in the third quarter.
They didn't even play in the first half and were very physically strong. Hayes and David Lee didn't play much in the second quarter. After a while of rest, their physical strength would almost recover.
It seems that this is a good time for the Pistons to chase points, but the result is not the case. The two of them fouled the ball. When they encountered a pick-and-roll guard, they could not defend themselves and immediately pulled people. They also fouled the defender in a misplaced position during the counterattack. Within 2 minutes, they committed two fouls.
The Bulls began to compete for the frontcourt rebound. Once the shot missed and the rebound was not grabbed, the Pistons could not counterattack, and the inside immediately grabbed Ben Wallace and sent him to the free throw.
Daben made 2 of 4 free throws, with a total of 4 free throws. Sanders couldn't stand it anymore. He replaced Daben after only four minutes in the third quarter and replaced Mike Des.
After a big book, the Pistons' defense is not that tight. Wang Jun singled out Mike Des after pick-and-roll, and scored a layup.
Soon Wang Jun caught the ball when he counterattacked, turned around and broke through and caused Hamilton to foul, and made both free throws.
The Pistons' offense is a little better, but compared with Big Ben's presence, the Bulls are determined to keep people in check, and let the opponent take action away from the basket when there is interference.
The Bulls no longer grab the frontcourt rebounds. The players immediately return to defense after taking action to ensure the integrity of the defensive system.
If the piston returns to defense quickly, the bull will also fight slowly, looking for opportunities on the periphery and trying to use up 24 seconds.
Usually, the opponent will be very happy to play the Pistons like this, which is equivalent to falling into their rhythm. However, if the score is behind and the offensive efficiency is not as high as the Bulls, it is too tormenting to play like this.
In the last round of the series, Prince played against Bobby Simmons, averaging 20 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game. In this game, he was unable to find a phone call by Lol Deng's defense. He only scored 5 points after the third quarter.
Rashid also scored only 7 points, made 3 of 0 shots, and made 4 of three-pointers. Hayes was able to resist him outside the penalty area and caught the ball after covering the outside. He never took a easy move. Wang Jun, Sinrich and others were able to interfere closely.
Zhang Heli was happy and commented: "A Rashid Wallace who didn't get into the basket has no difference from Wang Zhizhi. The Bulls' defense was too successful today."
In the last quarter, the Pistons' attack still did not open.
Their tactics are too simple, they rely on pick-and-roll. Prince and Lolden are very similar in style. They are good at swaying people who are good at misaligning to low positions to bully their opponents. They are difficult to block due to their height and wingspan.
But like him, Louldon was stronger in 206c, and Prince's offense was silent.
Prince went to defend Wang Jun during the position attack, but Lol Deng could rely on his height advantage to play Hamilton at a low post. This became the key to winning, and the Pistons have always been unable to defend well.
After replacing Hamilton, Nosioni started to play again, attacking the basket with the ball, and Rashid was a little unable to keep up with the speed.
As long as you play small ball tactics, the Bulls don't play tactics at all, but rely on singles to score points.
Nosioni, Lol Deng played singles directly, David Li and Wang Jun played singles in a misplaced manner, and the four people guaranteed offensive firepower, and then the whole team fought hard to defend and restricted the opponent.
With 3 minutes left in the game, the Bulls led by 95 to 76 and entered garbage time.
Wang Jun was substituted, and the five players on the field were Chandler, Hayes, Lorden, Jonbarry, and Du Hong.
The Bulls players did not relax at all and kept defending until the end, not giving the Pistons any chance to turn the table. They were very active in changing the pick-and-roll, and they would foul the opponent to free throws after breaking through, so they would not want to shoot three-pointers.
Billups took action from outside the three-point line and hit the three-bar, declaring that the Pistons lost their home advantage.
0-3, the Bulls won a big win.
Wang Jun played for 45 minutes, made 0 of 6 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, and scored 2 points, 9 rebounds and assists. He was still the best performer on the court.
