Chapter 485 Match Point
The Pistons are already defending their honor at home, and their shooting rate has also reached the highest point in the playoffs, completely surpassing the state they had when they fought with other teams.
It can be said that these old guys in Detroit are really working hard, and everyone is fighting fiercely.
But they are facing the Celtics, who are a group of guys who are really crazy and even want to retreat from God.
When the Pistons' attack ignited the ferocious nature of these guys, a fierce offensive battle was completely detonated. In this kind of confrontation that completely competed with offensive ability, the Pistons could not take advantage of it at all.
Even the fans sitting in the stands can understand this, but the Pistons have been forced to do this. They really have no good way except to fight hard. Even if they are passive, they have to fight!
The Pistons' 57% shooting percentage is a rare crazy. Their average of the season is only about 45%. It can be said that the Pistons, which can't be regarded as an offensive team, are really desperate this time.
Three-point, medium distance, cut into the three-second zone, as long as it can be used, they have tried.
But the Celtics' counterattack is as efficient as 66%, which is almost as accurate as the sky. They scored a total of 109 points in the whole game, and the confidence of the Detroiters was blown down by them.
Detroiters' home courts are rarely trampled on by their opponents so recklessly, but on this crazy night, many things can't be estimated by common sense, just like they didn't expect the Pistons' attack to be so sharp.
Billups scored a total of 25 points in the whole game, and Hamilton also contributed 19 points. Prince, who has rarely shot, can score 11 points, while Rashid Wallace, who has been in a sluggish state before, also scored three three three-pointers. Similarly, McDais has made five shots in his middle shot. Efficiency in the middle.
Such an efficient attack can be said to be a rare crazy scene for the Pistons after the start of the playoffs.
But these data are useless in the face of a failure. No one will deny that the Pistons' performance has been amazing enough. They played the most accurate game in the playoffs. Even Michael Curry himself did not expect that this game could be such a situation. The Pistons' firepower exceeded him. The imagination also exceeded the imagination of many fans. On the edge of the cliff, they burst out terrible offensive firepower.
If it is left in peacetime, this offensive efficiency is enough for the Pistons to win the game. It is rare for the Detroiters to be so crazy. It can be seen that their attack really exceeds the usual level.
But the most unfortunate problem is that they met the Celtics, who were originally a group of crazy people, and Rivers was completely crazy this time. He really needed this kind of offensive battle to defeat his opponent with attack!
That's the result he wants! It's very simple, straightforward and crazy. Rivers even gave up defense.
Of course, it's not the kind of play that is completely defenseless. It's just that in terms of focus, he asked the team to devote more energy to the attack, rather than entangling in defense. If you can attack, you have to be more ruthless!
It has made the Pistons feel desperate against defense, so now defeat them again from the offensive!
Especially when the Celtics get the match point, will those Detroiters continue to be so crazy?
People all have a limit of endurance. The Pistons used to be the winners of the championship. They will not easily admit defeat. At least they will not be as soft as the Cavaliers. There is no doubt about this.
But what if they are three-to-zero behind? Can they still have the ability to turn the table? Rivers believes that he will not continue to overturn the boat in the gutter, but there is nothing safer than to grab the match point first.
And killing them at the opponent's home can make the opponent lose the confidence to continue to fight with you, especially when they are already playing for their lives. If you win, these guys will have no capital to work hard.
If the Pistons win back a city, they may have the confidence to continue to fight with you, but if you hold three match points, the collapse of Detroit may not be far away.
So only before the game starts, Rivers will ask his players to attack! Crazy attack!
It doesn't matter if there are any problems in defense. As long as you can bombard the opponent with attack, the task will be completed! And the more fierce the attack, the more you can drag your opponent into the quagmire of firepower.
Fight to attack? Sorry, if it's really better than this, Rivers dares to say that he is really not afraid of anyone in the whole league.
Even if he meets the old madman old Nelson head-on, now he dares to wrestle with the old man.
When playing in the North Bank Garden, it was not that the Jinzhou gang was beaten badly without attack.
The Celtics can do this. They not only attack sharply, but also use the crazy offensive rhythm to suppress the Pistons' counterattack. The Detroiters have been lagging behind since the end of the first quarter. Although their pursuit is crazy, they are chasing after all, not being a leader. .
The Green Shirts were also led by their opponents in the first quarter. In the next three quarters, they left the Pistons behind in a state of suppression, giving Detroiters no chance to catch up with their scores.
This is the ferocity of the Celtics. When the Pistons fans are shouting crazily, they obviously forget one thing. In terms of offensive scoring ability this season, the Celtics are the number one in the league!
Even the Suns, Mavericks and Warriors, such a team with extremely crazy offensive momentum, has been left behind by the Bostonians in terms of efficiency and scoring ability. Do you really think these Bostonians are muddy? Can you chase points so pleasantly? Do you Pistons really regard themselves as the number one in the league's offensive efficiency?
Pierce scored a total of 21 points in the whole game, Ray Allen also contributed five three-pointers, Garnett scored 23 points on the inside, and Ron made a total of 17 accurate assists, but the craziest thing was Chen Feng. The fierce boy was caught in the attack in the three-second zone. Exactly 25 points!
What kind of crazy man is he!? Those depressed Detroit fans really want to ask.
Why is there such a number one animal in this league? He won the one-on-one against Rashid Wallace. Even such a tough guy as "Roaring Tianzun" is depressed after the game.
Yes, it's depressed, not melancholy, because the old guy has tried his best, but he really can't stop it.
Rashid Wallace himself recognized such a result, and the onlookers were really hopeless.
The overall starting lineup of the Celtics was nearly 42 minutes, which was a dead fight from beginning to end, and their substitute lineup also saved more than 20 points after playing. In the face of such a high efficiency, the Pistons' counterattack is like a group of people struggling with their lives, trying to escape from the brink of death, but in the end Failed.
The counterattack planned by Michael Curry still failed. When the game reached the last minute of the fourth quarter, the 8-point gap made all the Pistons' resistance useless. They persisted for 48 minutes, but at the end, they still got a failure. Michael Curry stood on the sidelines and also felt very Helpless.
And Sanders has quietly walked into the player channel at this time. In fact, after the first quarter, he already knew that the result was like this, because those Bostonians would not miss the opportunity to win.
When the Pistons gave up what they were good at and began to fight, they had already lost!
This is a backwater battle. The Pistons have no way out. When you are in a desperate situation, you have to play this game according to your opponent's idea. What other advantages do you have? It must have been doomed.
However, such a result still silenced the Auburn Hills Palace. Those Detroit fans who have been roaring for a long time, whether they are willing to bear such a result or not, the score can't be changed.
They lost, the Pistons lost at home, and the total score has been rewritten to 3-0. The opportunity left for Detroit to turn over is completely gone. No one can complete the final big reversal under such a backward situation.
No one has done this before, and Detroiters are not naive enough to think that God will be on their side.
It can make the Pistons create such a miracle, not to mention the group of Boston lunatics they met, can they allow such things to happen? Maybe it's more realistic for you to pray that these guys will encounter a car accident when they go out.
Those devil-like guys are fighting so desperately against the Pistons in order to get the match point! They have done it. Now these guys will leave the possibility of a counterattack for Detroit?
Forget it, even if you believe that God is a black man, you should not leave such expectations. Those crazy people in Boston will reach the finals like this!
Maybe the Pistons can still fight, but when the opponent holds three match points, you can be out at any time. Can you guarantee that there will be no problem in every game? I'm afraid even the supporters of these Pistons don't believe it.
Their team has played crazy tonight, but what's the final result? It's not that I lost!
If losing the last game was to let the Pistons stand on the edge of the cliff, then now they have fallen halfway up the mountain, and they will fall all the time. The chance to let them continue their lives is almost gone.
Maybe you can expect them to win the next game in the next game, or at least save a little face for Detroit, but you really don't expect too much that they can complete some amazing reversal.
Boston will not give them this opportunity. Similarly, they don't have this confidence. The current Pistons are no longer the kind of tough team that can fight to the end with their opponents last season.
Maybe, after this season, it can really be said that we, Detroit, are going to start rebuilding...
