Chapter 72 Detroit Legion

What is the strength at the championship level? What's the average score per game and rebound per game? These are all floating clouds.

Generally, if you squat in front of a pile of data with a calculator and carefully study how many digits of data flow experts are behind the decimal points, you will never understand what champion-level defensive efficiency is.

They will only list a lot of values and then pour them into your mind. When you start to feel confused, they will win. You ask them to explain that it's really difficult.

Because they don't even know what they are going to do with a pile of data every day. Maybe this will make them look very professional? The ghost knows that some people just like to flaunt themselves like this.

Anyone who likes to use data to measure the game, if it's good, it's called academicism. If it's not good, it's talk on paper, basketball confrontation, and some things can never fall on paper.

Courage, roaring, collision, interference, there are always some subtle things that will extend a lot of changes.

Just like the momentum of the championship team, if you don't really fight with them, you will never know what it means. When you understand, you may find that you have been killed by them.

If data can be used to measure the strength of a team, then there is no such thing as defeating the strong with the weak.

To compare strength and fame, the Lakers' F4 was the best at the beginning, but what was the final result? It's not that the Pistons' group of blue-collar muscle men were killed.

Data can be used to fool the people, but don't fool the head coaches of those teams.

Because people with good eyes can see what kind of team is the most threatening, not playing well, but those seemingly unpretentious guys will cause you fatal damage.

Detroit Pistons, a blue-collar team recognized by the NBA, there are no superstars here, only a group of blue-collar workers.

Even Billups and Hamilton are not first-class stars, not only about their appearance, but more importantly, they can't perform so well.

These guys rarely appear in the best shots of the day. They only speak with defense and score.

The average is less than 20 points per game, six or seven assists, four or five rebounds. Just looking at the things on paper, you may think that this is just a quasi-first-class star, a little well-known, but not a big shot.

If this data can get a big contract, it is estimated that many people will be unconvinced, but if it is in the Pistons, no one will say anything, because this team can produce such players.

Rivers knows what kind of opponent he is facing, although they are not as strong as they were when they defeated the Lakers F4.

But who dares to underestimate the Pistons, it is estimated that the final outcome is to be carried out of Auburn Hill Palace.

In fact, in the first four games of this season, the Pistons have won all of them, but they have not scored more than 100 points in one game, but they have actually won four victories.

This is the efficiency, the efficiency at the championship level. If you don't want to look good, it depends on whether the actual effect is good or not.

The Celtics are not qualified to underestimate any opponent, let alone such a champion-level opponent. Rivers can feel the oppression from the opponent.

Although the hard-line Larry Brown who is coaching the Pistons now, Sanders, the successor, is not an idiot.

Without dismantling the structure of the championship team, the Pistons are still the fierce team that can kill all the challengers with both hands. They are still the strong team in the Eastern Conference for tickets to the finals.

Now the Celtics are on the road to revival. To put it bad, they have just begun to rebuild, and they can't wrestle with the champion team.

Even Rivers himself said that if we are now at the level of plotting the top of the Atlantic Division, the Pistons are the level of plotting the NBA championship. This gap is not a little bit.

This is not self-deprecting, but just a portrayal of the real situation. You can only admit the gap between the two.

Without Pierce, without Latlief, without God's possession, Rivers looked at the five animals that the Pistons were ready to play, and he could only try.

"The worst result is two consecutive defeats, but in that case, we still maintain a 50% winning rate, which is actually not bad." Rivers said to Thiberdeau when arranging the starting line-up.

"You can never get around some games, and you can only bravely fight. Unfortunately, our lineup is not the same, and it's a little difficult to take away a victory from here."

Siberdu was never used to being timid before fighting, so when he said this, he still glanced at the strong lineup of the Pistons and compared with himself. The Celtics were indeed at a disadvantage.

"Let's see, the only thing I'm glad is that we met the Pistons, not the Suns, which often play the game. Even if we lose, we will lose too miserably."

Rivers can only comfort himself now. At this time, it is indeed much luckier to meet a defensive team than to meet a group of offensive lunatics.

Even if it is a disadvantage, no one will think about how to give up the game from the beginning, especially the Celtics' tough style, knowing that they are not as good as their opponents, they have to try their best to fight.

Pierce, the number one scorer in the team, is not here. Even if Szebiak's defense is not good, he has to throw it on the field, but if he meets a crazy man like Prince, who is stronger than attacking, he will definitely feel uncomfortable.

West's fingers have been healed, and Rivers put him on the starting list after thinking about it again and again.

Although Rondo has performed well in recent games, perhaps West's experience can still be a little useful in competing with old deep-fried dough sticks like Billups. Rdo's experience must not be able to compete with the opponent.

Tony Allen also entered the starting line-up. His role is to pester Hamilton. The pure pitcher who is used to solving the opponent with running position and midfielder. As for whether he can be entangled or not, it's up to fate.

Jefferson may be the most stable scoring point for the Celtics now, but if he meets a tough guy like Rashid Wallace, he will definitely have a tough confrontation.

As for Perkins, it may be the easiest to deal with. Mohammed's scoring ability is not very strong among the big man. As long as Perkins can withstand him, everything will be fine.

5V5 confrontation, whether in terms of personal ability or overall matching, it is a disadvantage of the Celtics, not to mention playing in the Pistons' territory.

The noisy environment around it alone is annoying enough. If it hadn't been for Chen Feng's jokes, maybe the Celtics would have been dull before the start of the game.

However, whoever comes to the away game at Auburn Hill Palace is probably sad. After all, the fighting atmosphere here is suffocating, and the abuse and provocation around will fill the whole game.

Just like when Rivers entered the field, he saw several bold guys rushing themselves at the exit, and the doughy Rivers could only choose to ignore it.

Because if you want to fight back, there must be a brush of the middle finger waiting for you, at least more than 10,000. It is estimated that the scene will definitely be included in the news report that night.

Rivers doesn't want to try this feeling. In Auburn Mountain, you have to endure all the noise.

After sitting on a cold bench, Chen Feng was a little eager to try, but Rivers still didn't put the boy on the starting list after thinking about it.

In addition to Jefferson's position that can't be easily shaken, what Rivers is most afraid of is that this boy doesn't do anything in Auburn Hill.

This is not New York. If this boy continues to provoke the audience, maybe a few ** will rush down to fight with him, which can't be solved by a ban and a fine.

At that time, the suspension for a season may be light. In order not to have such an accident, Rivers still temporarily plans to put the boy on the bench and continue to watch the factory girls.

Even if Chen Feng has a depressed expression at this moment, Rivers doesn't see it. For the safety of the team and himself, this boy should take a break for a while.

Otherwise, in case of an accident, and then facing the group attack of more than 10,000 people, Rivers obviously feels that he can't stand it. He really has to consider whether he is killed or leaves Mount Auburn.

Blue-collar workers often don't reason with you. Their reason is the big fists of sandbags.

And Chen Feng's wild boy also seems to believe in this truth, so it's not a bad thing to let him rest for the time being.

Although Rivers has racked his brains to arrange his starting lineup, he can basically still play. He has sent it up, but the gap is a gap, which is not something you can fight if you want to fight.

This is not about courage. It's just a disadvantage in strength, which will definitely be shown in the game.

There is nothing to do against a team like the Pistons. It's not impossible for you to win by chance, but the chance is very small.

The Pistons also told Rivers the truth with the most practical difference. Less than five minutes after the start of the game, the score was already a little one-sided.

The cheers that broke out in the Auburn Hills Palace Court have drowned out the music played by the live DJ. Even when the pause was, the blue-collar workers were not idle. They had been pounding their chests and roaring.

Even those factory girls were very tough. The small bucket physique also shook the little fat on his body vigorously, and the upper circumference trembled violently, which made Chen Feng a little nausea.

This is really too greasy. Chen Feng really admires those who can still whistle at these girls**.

However, this has an advantage, that is, Chen Feng finally doesn't have to concentrate on the girl. He sits on the bench on the sidelines, and is still next to the ten-thousand-year water dispenser caret Scara Brian. After the game began, Chen Feng's eyes have always been paying attention to the situation on the field, which seems to be so careless.

If the attacks of New York and the Hornets are focused, and Marbury or Paul are their main attack points, then the Pistons basically have no main attacker in the first five minutes.

18:8, even if Rivers shouted a timeout, the difference was still in double digits, but in the Pistons' starting five-man group, only Hamilton scored six points.

But everyone shot, and even Mohammed scored on a scaffold. Wallace took four points, Billups threw a three-pointer, and Prince also scored a three-pointer.

On the side of the Celtics, only Jefferson made a mid-range shot, plus four free throws, and the other goal was a mid-shoot suddenly thrown by Szebiak stepping on the three-point line.

"The gap, this is the gap." Rivers slid back and forth several laps on the sidelines. It's not that he didn't tell the players how to play tactically, but this kind of warning didn't help much.

With the scattered offensive point, you can't catch who the Pistons will take action. Even if West desperately pestles Billups to dribble the ball comfortably, the rest of the Pistons can still take over the organization.

What's more, these guys' running position, blocking and disassembly are not only frequent, but also extremely skilled, as if they have had graphics in their minds for a long time, and almost everyone will not stop after receiving the ball.

Just like the two three-pointers of Billups and Prince, the inside line was suddenly pulled out, and then one blocked the person, and the other seized the opportunity and shot like lightning.

Not to mention Hamilton's animal, he rarely took the initiative to hold the ball, just ran all the way.

Then when Tony Allen was like a dog, he took the cold to catch the ball and threw it.

"I'll go! This shameless shooting method, Nima, is this walking the dog? This guy is from long-distance running!" Chen Feng was also shocked when he saw Hamilton's animal-like running position.

According to this way of running, this guy plays a game, which is almost like running a marathon.

But Hamilton is accurate, and you can't do anything about it. Unless you foul, you really can't stop him.

And the Pistons have long been familiar with how to cover Hamilton. It's not so easy to catch him. Even if you want to foul, you may not be able to get him.

"Has this group of guys read Grandpa Mao's quotations? This guerrilla war is also too smooth. Coupled with so many crazy fans, Auburn Mountain is completely like a vast sea of people's war!" Looking at the continuous widening of the score on the field, Chen Feng also frowned.

Now the Pistons are like a well-organized army, cutting the courage of the Celtics with the most stable way of play. It is not the purpose to open the score. They just want to promote their strength in this way.

Rivers also understands this. If it goes on like this, maybe they don't have to make it to the fourth quarter. This game may enter the garbage time early. It's almost impossible for them to see the opportunity to turn over.

Unless someone can break the balance of the other side or find a fierce enough offensive firepower for the team.

Otherwise, there is only one way to wait for death. Rivers is also hesitating at this moment about how to activate the team's firepower.

Even if your ability is not as good as the other party, you can't bow your head and admit defeat. Even if you lose, you have to leave here with your head held high like a man, instead of getting out of here in a boo!

Changed, Rivers looked at the bench, and maybe there would be a key he was looking for.
