U1S1...

The adjective "slutty" (note) is really suitable for Su Feng to describe the current Raptor.

Because after my voice went down, the spirit of these people immediately became different...

On: The importance of doing a good job in ideological work to maintain combat effectiveness for a team.

In the third quarter, the Raptors, who were awakened by the Pistons, gradually began to take the initiative in this G1 battle.

Of course, there are factors that have begun to have problems with the physical fitness of the piston.

After all, after the day before yesterday, we had a life-and-death battle with the Heat, today we ran the Raptors for a whole half. Even if everyone in this Pistons team is like a god tonight, it is normal for people to have poor waist strength.

On the court, in the third quarter, under the leadership of Su Feng, the Raptors, who started from defense, pulled the difference between the two teams to double digits through defensive counterattacks.

At this time, TNT TV station, Smith also sighed: "Although the Pistons played a pretty good first half tonight, even if you make a mistake once, that mistake is likely to be fatal."

As we all know, when a weak team plays a strong team, if a weak team cannot reduce the mistakes, the strong team will continue to snowball through their higher lower limit.

And tonight, when the physical fitness is obviously inferior to the Raptors, facing the Raptors' defense that is not diminished, it is not just as difficult as climbing the sky to make zero mistakes?

However, just as the Raptors fans on the scene and in front of the TV sighed, "We are really too strong", the scene that happened in the second half of the third quarter of this game made Su Feng alert again.

Because of the Route Center Arena, after noticing that the team's situation was out of reach tonight, Carlisle made a decision that Su Feng thought was extremely wise.

That's:

"Tactical Retreat".

With 2 minutes left in the third quarter of this G1 game, Carlisle took the initiative to replace main players such as Hill and Hughes, leaving only Starkhouse on the court.

As a result, when Starkhouse failed to replicate his magical touch in the second quarter, after the third quarter, the Raptors' leading advantage quickly expanded to 19 points.

In the final quarter, the Pistons, who started with a full-to-player lineup, were even hit by the Raptors at the beginning of the fourth quarter with a 9-0 climax.

"It seems that the Pistons no longer intend to place more bets in this G1 battle.

After removing all the team's main players, Coach Rick Carlisle chose to hand over this G1 battle." TNT TV, Smith said.

“Although we often say that in a seven-game four-win series, losing one or two games is no big deal.

But isn't it a pity to give up this G1 round like this?" Derek echoed.

I have to say that under the premise that the Pistons players are in good condition tonight, we can see that the Pistons players' physical fitness is not enough to compete with the Raptors who have entered the serious mode...

In Su Feng's opinion, Rick Carlisle is not an ordinary person.

In Su Feng's previous life, many fans often only saw Nowitzki's willpower and his reverse growth state when they reviewed the year when Nowitzki's "single-core championship".

But I forgot that Carlisle, who had set up a net for James and Wadeb, was behind Nowitzki.

If you know the Mavericks' history well enough, you will know what kind of stall General Johnson left for Carlisle.

In the NBA, a bastard league, although there are many bastard coaches, there will also be excellent coaches like Carlisle.

And if Smith's explanation just now, in Su Feng's eyes, this piston did not give up on betting on this G1 battle.

They just bet on the chips in the subsequent series.

And in the fourth quarter, when the camera showed the Pistons players the appearance of all living things, Su Feng discovered the clues.

Because unlike the average team will be more or less disappointed after losing...

In the fourth quarter, when Carlisle took off Starkhouse, the only main player, the Pistons' players, led by Hill, and even their water dispenser tool, did not show any obvious loss in their expressions.

On the contrary, from the micro-expression of the Pistons player at that time, Su Feng read a sentiment called "We can really play against this Raptors."

"It will be a difficult series indeed."

In the final quarter, Su Feng, who had returned to the bench to rest, looked at the scoreboard tonight and sighed silently.

...

In the end, relying on their outstanding performance in the second half, the Raptors successfully achieved their good start in the Eastern Conference semi-finals.

The final score of this game was 99 to 118.

In the whole game, Su Feng made 11 of 21 shots, including 3 of 6 three-pointers and 7 of 8 free throws, scoring the Raptors' highest 32 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.

Carter scored 17 points in the second half, contributing the team's second highest 24 points and 5 rebounds.

Da Ben grabbed 18 rebounds, including 9 frontcourt rebounds.

On the Pistons, Hill contributed 24 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

Starkhouse made 6 of 13 three-pointers, plus free throws and two points, and scored the highest 27 points on the Pistons.

After the game, in an interview, Su Feng asked the most questions about the ownership of the major NBA awards that will be announced in a few days.

In this regard, although he was still thinking about how to win the Eastern Conference semi-finals steadily, Su Feng did not forget to stimulate the shark swimming in the Los Angeles sewer.

"I've said it many times before, and I don't care who the MVP will give.

Because for me and my team, the championship is our only pursuit.

In my opinion, it is very stupid to spend time asking people to vote for me at such times." Su Feng said in an interview.

In the Raptors' locker room, listening to Su Feng's answer, if the reporters remember correctly, a day ago, last night, in Los Angeles, it seemed that there was a man named O'Neal howling and asked the experts to give him the votes...

hiss----!

Gang Zhen, it’s not that the reporters want to lead the rhythm, but after interviewing Su Feng, they found that Su Feng can lead the rhythm more than them!

Because just what Su Feng said just now, do you think he is not fighting O'Neal?

Who believes this if you say it?

"Su...Isn't it necessary for us to pass more balls to you in the game?"

In the locker room, after the interview in the locker room, looking at Su Feng who was calm and was about to rub his back with Da Ben, Carter asked curiously.

In Carter's opinion, it is the critical moment to decide the ownership of the regular season MVP, so he originally thought that Su Feng would take everyone to sew with him like the regular season...

However......

As he got along with Su Feng for a longer time, Carter discovered that he was really unable to understand the rabbit in front of him.

"Vins, how many times have you told me that I am a team player." Su Feng said seriously while patting Carter's shoulder.

Carter: "..."

In fact, in Su Feng's opinion, Carter's concerns about him were completely redundant.

Because when the Raptors have scored 74 wins and 8 losses, Su Feng is very clear that Stern will never let others fall behind in the regular season MVP.

Moreover, it’s been 2000, so why don’t anyone really think that their performance in the first round of the playoffs this year is a bad one?

What an international joke? Just the intensity of the Knicks' game that only takes a few minutes to surrender each game. Even if you replace Su Feng with Westbrook, that's...

Emmmmm...

Let’s change the topic!

According to the schedule, the G2 series between the Raptors and the Pistons will start on the 8th.

Compared to the G1 battle where the Raptors are waiting for their leisure to win, Su Feng believes that by then this prepared piston will definitely cause greater trouble for the Raptors...

...

On the 8th, after the G1 battle, the Raptors fell into a tough battle as soon as the G2 battle came.

Judging from the lineup of the two teams, the Raptors are definitely the more dominant side, but as we all know, a basketball game is not a sport that can determine the outcome of the game just by comparing the strength of the lineup.

Otherwise, how many times will the Knicks win the All-Star starter?

Since the Pistons can match the Raptors in every position, and Carlisle's targeted tactics, many of the Raptors' advantages cannot be fully utilized when facing the Pistons.

For example, the Raptors' speed and rotation attack.

With small against small Pistons, after adapting to the G1 battle, they successfully restricted the Raptors' defensive counterattack by quickly retreating and staring at people in the first quarter.

Although the Raptors' two wings have strong singles ability, Carlisle successfully resolved the pressure on the Pistons when dealing with the Raptors' singles through a simple math problem.

That is, no matter how efficient Su Feng and Carter are, no matter how high they are, the Raptors can only score points in each round.

In other words, as long as the Pistons can play their own offense well and ensure that they can keep up with the Raptors' scoring rhythm when Su Feng and Carter feel in a rampage, they can fight back and forth with the Raptors.

In Su Feng's previous life, many fans believed that when they saw the four-star Warriors' lineup, they believed that the Warriors should win 20 or 30 points in each game, and then not lose in one game until they win the championship.

But in fact, if Cole insists on letting Durant play singles in the future round of hot wars, and has not found a way to return the ball to Curry, and Paul is not injured, it is still unknown whether the Warriors can surpass the mosaic.

To put it bluntly, just looking at the lineup, the Warriors can simply hammer mosaics in all aspects.

But because there is only one basketball, if the Warriors cannot play the linkage between stars, then all they can rely on is Durant's singles ceiling.

Once Durant's singles have a time point that cannot be stabilized, they will easily be pushed back by the mosaic.

The same is true in this first quarter game between the Pistons and the Raptors.

In the playoffs, in order to avoid mistakes, it was common sense to hand over the ball to the star as much as possible.

So, rather than saying that the Raptors are taking the initiative to find singles tactics, they are better said that from the beginning of the G1 battle, they fell into the one-V and one-man battle trap prepared by Carlisle for them.

Fortunately, it doesn’t matter that Davis gets stuck at the critical moment.
