Chapter 291 Eastern Semifinals

On May 6, the Eastern Conference semi-finals between the Bucks and the Pistons started at the Bradley Center.

At the beginning of the game, Kwame Brown defeated Da Ben in the jumping game with his physical talent advantage.

However, the Pistons' overall reaction speed was very fast, and the five players rushed back to defense. Hamilton, the most capable of running, and Prince, the outside defense core, were already standing in the top arc to prevent He Li from coming up without saying a word.

This is the home court of the Bucks, He Li's territory. At the beginning of the game, He Li Xia Ji threw a three-pointer into eight shots, which is a very terrifying thing.

It can be seen that before the Pistons came, they did a lot of homework on the Bucks.

And the bucks naturally cannot have not studied the pistons.

As soon as He Li received the ball from Penny Hardaway, he immediately passed the ball to Joe Johnson and ran to the bottom corner on the left.

Prince immediately followed He Li when he saw the situation, and followed Da Ben, who was standing in the inside, also looked in the direction where He Li was.

Meanwhile, singles Joe walked forty-five degrees to the right, preparing to take Hamilton into his dessert area and try singles.

Hardaway immediately followed up and ran to the top arc.

If Joe plays the single and passes the ball back to Penny at this time, Penny can directly break through the middle.

Once Hamilton and Roaring Heavenly Lord reacted a little slower, Penny would drive straight in and break into the basket and dunk.

Even if Da Ben retreated his sight from He Li and helped defend Penny, Penny would have a chance to make a layup.

However, Penns and Joe did not communicate tactics in advance, and Joe did want to play Hamilton in singles, so this attack seemed a little sloppy.

Joe dribbled in a low hand, and tried to shake Hamilton away with his steps.

Hamilton has a relatively regular defense. Although he is good at dog skin plaster defense, his defensive effect is actually average.

Especially now, when Joe alone dribbles with a low hand, Hamilton presses up again, and Joe alone finds an opportunity, and directly dribs with one hand under his back, dribbling the ball behind his back to the right, and then shoots directly at the middle distance.

In fact, Hamilton reacted very quickly. After shaking it a little, he immediately jumped and rushed, but he was still singled Joe threw the ball out.

But Joe's singles has not yet entered his peak period, and he almost shot, so he still hit the ball.

Fortunately, He Li, Kwame Brown and Boozer both reacted. When Joe singled, the three of them immediately squeezed under the basket.

Although Da Ben and Roaring Tianzun also squeezed into the basket, there were many people on the Bucks after all.

He Li predicted the rebounding position, jumped in advance, the monkey took the moon, and then took advantage of the situation to make a big windmill, and dunked the ball into the basket.

Because there were many people under the basket, He Li was afraid of being cushioned, so he grabbed the basket with one hand and hung it for a while.

Fortunately, the Pistons are still clean now and greeted He Li before they came up.

The referee was reasonable and did not take this opportunity to slap in any way.

"He Li, He Li, He Li!"

"Scoring King, Scoring King, Scoring King!"

“mvp!mvp!mvp!mvp!”

The Bucks fans cheered at He Li.

“We will definitely win this game!

The pistons are not as strong as we thought in advance, and their defense is not airtight.

We can open up space by taking a long shot, and I will also create opportunities for you, just take action boldly.

Trust me, trust your teammates! They are not in the interior, so we can try our best to receive more rebounds!

But I still want to say, don’t take it lightly when you go!

The Pistons are also a championship team, they beat Pacers who are better than them in the regular season!

If we still want to win the championship, we still have to play seriously and strive to win this game as soon as possible and win this series!"

Although the Pistons have long-distance running athletes like Hamilton, they do not play fast attacks.

So, when He Li returned to defense, he took the opportunity to talk to other teammates.

The Pistons are good at defense, and strict defense is easier to hit the confidence and morale of offensive players.

What the Bucks need to do now is to defeat the Pistons in one go.

"Richard Hamilton took the ball and made a jump shot, and the ball went in!"

"Penny crossed the crowd and entered the three-second zone, as if he was finding space in the crack of the stone, and incredibly scored the ball!"

"Ben Wallace squeezed out Kwame Brown and jumped and received a dunk, it was so cruel!"

"He Li finally took a three-pointer, how to shoot, just like this shot!"

The first quarter took more than 6 minutes, and the two sides were busy.

The Bucks did not use offense to fancy the Pistons at the beginning, and the Pistons did not rely on defense to limit the Bucks' scoring.

Only half a quarter has passed, the Bucks still played the effect they should have. The score on the field was 12 to 19, and the Bucks led by a full 5 points.

After all, in comparison, the Bucks are better at attacking.

However, the Bucks have the advantage and the fight is not easy.

The Pistons have great defense pressure. The more attacks He Li and others have, the more physical strength they consume.

At this time, George Carl had to call for a timeout and switched the lineup.

As the first offensive point in the starting lineup, He Li was replaced first, and Penns were replaced at the same time.

The Bucks replaced Carl Malone and Payton.

The reason why Wade was not replaced at this time was because Wade was a rookie. George Carl was still a little worried about Wade when playing in a strong team like the Pistons in the playoffs.

At least, Joe is more experienced and mature than Wade.

Besides, Qiao is still young in singles. As the second scoring point of the starting lineup, he only took three shots in the first half of the first quarter, and now he has some physical strength.

I have to say that as the head coach of the Bucks, especially in the past two years, George Carl has joined forces with He Li and others to win two championships, and he really has a thorough understanding of the Bucks at the moment.

Although George Carl took down He Li, the overall firepower of the Bucks did not drop much.

Unlike the Pistons who fought the main force, the Bucks were still constantly expanding their advantages and score differences in the remaining five minutes in the first quarter.

When the game entered the second quarter, even Larry Brown had to let the Pistons' rookie Bosh, who was selected by the Pistons this year, try it out.

When the Pistons need someone to score, Big Ben will be able to defend a short blue-collar insider without having to stay on the court.

Bosh was a bit used by Larry Brown this season, but fortunately he was in a good shape and even if he couldn't attack, he would be easier to protect the rebounds.

In fact, Bosh's offensive talent is OK.

However, after less than 2 minutes of Bosh's play, Larry Brown regretted it and called a timeout, replaced Bosh and replaced it with a big book.
