The head coaches of the two teams did not adjust their playing styles. Although the players were under great pressure, they played very well.
Both Zhang Hao and Grant Hill have entered the state.
Zhang Hao is used to the rhythm of this game. He gets an assist as soon as he passes the ball, which is very satisfying. He occasionally supports the team's offense based on his excellent judgment of the movement of his teammates and the movement of his opponents. It is even better when his teammates make a basket.
Grant Hill's playing style is completely different from Zhang Hao's. He mainly focuses on instigating the team's offense. He doesn't care whether direct passes are assisted or not. He also needs to make strong shots when necessary or seize the fleeting opportunity. , throw the ball in.
The two are good friends in private, but on the court, both Zhang Hao and Grant Hill regard each other as their biggest competitors, because they were players who entered the NBA at the same time, only one year apart.
In contrast, Zhang Hao still has a more obvious advantage in terms of teammates. He has two All-star teammates in Kenny Anderson and Barkley. The other teammates are a bit weaker, and most of them are functional teammates, and Grant- Hill's role player teammates are better but they don't have All-Star teammates. Joe Dumars is barely close to the All-Star level. Zhang Hao definitely has the advantage.
But it doesn¡¯t matter whether it¡¯s fair or unfair. Jordan also has Pippen and Rodman beside him. Zhang Hao has never denied that he has played so well since entering the NBA largely because of his teammates.
Both of them devoted themselves to the duel with each other. Zhang Hao had to face Jerome Williams' mad-dog single defense and Grant Hill's assist defense. Grant Hill had to face Zhang Hao's outside shooting. Interference and mid- and short-range flanking defense, both of them need to connect the team's offense well in this kind of defense.
When organizing an offense, Grant Hill has a better ability to find his teammates, but Zhang Hao has Barkley and Kenny Anderson and has a higher success rate.
The situation remained tense until the end of the third quarter. At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers led the Pistons by 1 point, 81-80, and beat the Pistons 28-25 in a single quarter.
However, at critical moments, personal ability is more important, and at critical moments, the personal abilities of outside stars are often more effective than the personal abilities of inside stars.
From the beginning of the second quarter, Grant Hill focused on guarding Zhang Hao. In terms of physical distribution, he was more experienced than before. He attacked with all his strength at the beginning of the fourth quarter and led the team to a 13-5 victory. Three minutes into the fourth quarter helped the Pistons overtake the Lakers 93-86 and lead the Lakers by 5 points!
Kenny Anderson missed Joe Dumars' pull-up jump shot again in isolation. The Pistons advanced steadily and played a three-pointer. Joe Dumars, who had just made a contribution on the defensive end, caught the ball and shot a three-pointer. ¡
It looked like they could hit a climax to widen the point difference as soon as the fourth quarter started, but unfortunately, Joe Dumars didn't make the shot.
Just when Del Harris was ready to protect his team's rebound and immediately call a timeout to replace Barkley in advance, a figure rushed forward like lightning, Grant Hill, Jerome Williams, Joe Dumas and the three of them chased hardthe distance was getting wider and wider!
Magic grabbed the defensive rebound and passed a long pass to Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao "rided alone" and triggered at full power. He chewed his collar at the beginning of the fourth quarter and then returned to the physical strength he had just returned from the halftime break. At this time, it finally worked. Come on, The counterattack smash after receiving the ball scored two points!
Grant Hill tried his best to widen the point difference at the beginning of the fourth quarter before Barkley was replaced. He finally created a 7-point lead. Zhang Hao narrowed the point difference to 10 points with a counterattack dunk. 5 points.
The key is that Grant Hill needs to slow down at this time. In the first three minutes of the game, the Lakers only scored 6 points, no free throws and three-pointers, and 3 of 7 shots. In fact, it is not very bad, mainly because Grant Hill showed off his power. The Pistons scored in six consecutive offensive rounds at the beginning of the fourth quarter. They scored 13 points and went 13-7. And this was Grant Hill who worked hard to lead the team. After coming out, 8 of the 13 points were scored by him alone.
But when Grant Hill's physical strength declined due to the fierce attack, Zhang Hao was still full of energy, and he felt even faster than at the end of the previous quarter!
This situation has happened again! This is not the first time Grant Hill has encountered this situation!
In fact, the Pistons have been on guard from the beginning. They cannot be beaten by the Lakers, otherwise they will be dragged down by the Lakers and overwhelmed by Zhang Hao in the end. They have made a lot of preparations and want to gain an advantage in regular time.
But tonight Zhang Hao has 8 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, Barkley has 27 points and 9 rebounds, and Kenny Anderson has 22 points. With the role players suffering a loss, the Lakers managed to hold on to the score. Now, it's Zhang Hao's time again!
Immediately afterwards, Grant Hill again?You asked me why I didn¡¯t pass the ball when I had a chance to get an assist at the last moment? I just felt like it was time for me to shoot. "
Someone next to him tried to push away the Detroit reporter, but the Detroit reporter resisted and continued to ask: "You wagged your finger at Hill at the last moment of the game, which obviously affected the opponent's calmness, but The referee didn't call you a technical foul, do you think you took advantage of playing at home?"
Zhang Hao looked down at the reporter and rarely smiled during the interview.
This made the surrounding reporters confused. However, other reporters did not complain about the Detroit reporter's unruly behavior at this time. Even the media that favored the Lakers wanted to hear how Zhang Hao answered this question.
Zhang Hao stretched out his hand, pointed at the floor and said, "Of course, this is my horse!"
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
