The game progresses minute by minute.

The Knicks relied on Dayao's mid-range shooting ability from the high post to score frequently.

It only took a few rounds to catch up with the score.

Of course, this is also because the game has just started and the point difference has not been widened much.

Larry Brown stood on the bench on the sidelines, looking at the situation on the court and feeling particularly anxious.

We absolutely cannot continue like this!

If Dayao cannot be restrained, then the Pistons will have no chance of winning this game!

Until the eighth minute of the first quarter, Larry Brown could not think of any good way to limit Yao's performance.

This is also normal.

Dayao's Golden Rooster independence would be so easy to restrict.

Let alone whether the Rockets could win the championship last season.

In the original history, Nowitzki would not have been able to complete the feat of leading the team to win the championship with a single core.

This season, Dazhi is still with the Rockets, but with this golden rooster independence, he has become a superstar player of the Rockets!

Average points per game are 20+!

There were even several consecutive games where he averaged over 30 points per game!

It can be said that he has truly transformed from a player who was about to be kicked out of the NBA to a well-known star in the NBA!

And because the Rockets straightened Dazhi up, he became the team's starting power forward.

For such a long time, so many talented head coaches in the league have not been able to figure out a way to limit such shooting movements.

No matter how awesome you are Larry Brown.

It’s impossible to come up with a plan in less than ten minutes, right?!

However, Larry Brown is also a famous coach after all.

The ability is still very strong.

Although I couldn't think of a way to restrict Dayao, I also thought of other ways to replace it.

Since Dayao can't be restrained, let's fight for points!

The Pistons' top five civilians are not weak in scoring ability!

Especially now that Yao has withdrawn to a high position.

Mutombo was the only one left in the Knicks' penalty area.

This is when the inside line is empty.

Wouldn’t it be over if I compete with you to score?!

Thinking of this, Larry Brown went straight to work!

At this time, the Pistons' bench players on the court were being beaten by the Knicks' bench.

Originally, the Knicks' bench lineup was quite strong inside.

Now that Kurt Thomas has entered the bench, the firepower of the Knicks' bench has gone up to a higher level!

Since then, even if the Pistons' bench is not weak, they can only try not to be opened up too much by the Knicks' bench.

At this time, the game had already progressed to more than five minutes of the second quarter.

The score between the two teams has reached 32 to 25 points, with the Knicks leading by 7 points.

If the Knicks hadn't replaced their main lineup at the beginning, the Pistons didn't replace their main lineup at the same time.

As a result, the score was evenly matched.

I'm afraid the score difference between the two teams will be even greater at this time!

Larry Brown reached out and called a timeout.

Han Ning didn't think much about it.

After all, at this time, it's almost time to replace the team's main lineup.

The score difference between the two teams itself is slowly widening.

Larry Brown couldn't help but call a timeout at this time. It is very normal for him to replace the team's main lineup.

"beep!"

The timeout ended and the players from both teams returned to the court.

Han Ning couldn't help but glance at the Pistons' bench.

During the timeout just now, he could vaguely hear that on the Pistons side, Larry Brown seemed to have been cheering for the Pistons players.

In other words, it is to inspire fighting spirit.

In other words, it is the practice of deception.

And the Pistons' morale has indeed improved a bit.

Han Ning had a vague feeling in his heart that the Pistons seemed to be coming up with some new tactics.

The game continues.

Knicks offense.

After Allen Iverson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he once again passed the basketball to Dayao who was standing in the high post.

Dayao turned around after receiving the basketball.

Just when he was about to use his customary independent action to shoot, he saw Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace coming in front of him to defend in a double-team style.

Dayao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

But then there was a hint of disdain in the corner of his eyes.

Double-team me in a high position?!

What are you thinking?!

Indeed, the double-teaming of two people will put a certain amount of defensive pressure on Dayao.

At least it's impossible to shoot the ball like before, treating the game like a training session.

but!

Dayao is not the only post player on the Knicks!

Although Mutombo does not have strong firepower on the offensive end.

But I can still eat a piece of cake!

Besides, Dayao is not without passing ability!

This was confirmed last season.

Thinking of this, Dayao directly threw the basketball in his hand towards the lower side of the basket.

The basketball flew high and then fell quickly.

Standing unguarded under the basket, Mutombo easily caught the basketball.

Then, when the Pistons players had no time to defend, they jumped and threw the basketball in.

Two points!

The point difference was once again widened to 9 points.

One more point and the Knicks would have a double-digit point difference advantage.

On the Knicks bench, every Knicks player couldn't help but shake his head.

Double team?!

It might work better on the inside.

In a high position?!

Do you really think that the high-level support skills that Han Ning trained Dayao on weekdays were all in vain?!

Larry Brown saw this scene but his emotions did not change.

From the moment he decided to play against the Knicks, he didn't care whether the Knicks scored or not.

In Larry Brown's heart, as long as the score can be maintained.

In the second half of the game, the physical strength of the players on both sides began to decline.

The Pistons will have the opportunity to rely on the excellent defensive abilities of individual players to reduce the Knicks' scoring efficiency and gradually catch up with the score bit by bit.

Pistons offense.

After Chauncey Billups dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, facing Allen Iverson's defense, he directly chose to play from behind without hesitation.
