"Zhou, do you think you can win this away game?" A golden wavy curly girl handed it to Zhou Yi with a microphone in her hand.
"As long as we do what we should do, I think there should be no problem." Zhou Yi replied simply.
"What about your own performance? Do you have anything to say?"
"I think it's pretty good, but I think I can perform better."
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation!"
After the interview, Zhou Yi slowly walked towards the locker room.
…………
Soon, the second half of the game was about to begin, and players from both sides walked towards the court one after another.
"In the second half, we have to play more bloody. I know this game is not easy, but I really hope our efforts are not in vain. I don't want to say more nonsense. In the second half, we have to play inside and outside, and Lamarcus Aldridge is not easy to defend, so Ben Wallace joins Samuel Durhamport to form a double tower, and must limit Lamarcus Aldridge. As for the outside, James Posey defends Brandon Roy, while others perform their duties. Do you understand?" John Custer said seriously.
"I understand." Everyone replied in unison.
At the beginning of the game, the Pistons really sent a double tower lineup: Big Ben, Durham Porter, Prince, James Posey and Will Bynum. Home team Trail Blazers: Lamarcus Aldridge, Marcus Cambi, Nicholas Batum, Brandon Roy and Andre Miller.
After the game started, Brandon Roy continued his good touch in the first half and scored two goals in a row. However, James Posey immediately increased his defense, so Brandon Roy did not score in the next few attacks.
Durham Porter from the Pistons inside helped the outside share the pressure of offense. Lamarcus Aldridge was a bit difficult to defend Durham Porter, so he also scored two goals by Durham Porter.
Then Andre Miller received a pass from Brandon Roy and made a three-pointer against Bynum's defensive jump shot.
Bynum broke through with the ball, and almost lost the ball with a staggering stagger. Fortunately, he transferred the ball to Durham Porter inside. Although the ball was not passed well, he still received it. Then Durham Porter leaned against Lamarcus Aldridge, turned around and hit the ball with his size and skills, and scored another 2 points.
Although Bynum likes to joke, he is also very smart in the game. He used his speed advantage several times to break through Andre Miller. Although Miller is experienced, he quickly consumed a lot of physical strength. Therefore, Bynum made a few breakthroughs. Moreover, these goals were all achieved by attacking by himself or handing them to the opponent.
In a blink of an eye, the third quarter had been played for nearly 7 minutes, and at this time, the head coach of the Trail Blazers Nate McMillan shouted a timeout. The timeout was not only for substitutions, but another reason was that the Pistons played very well during this period and wanted to interrupt the Pistons' offensive rhythm.
After the game started again, Zhou Yi came on the court.
Zhou Yi held the ball and hesitated on the outside for a while, and prepared to do the ball by himself! Because the touch was good in the first half, he wanted to try how it felt now. He slowly lowered his center of gravity, suddenly stepped up and drove the ball towards Andre Miller's left side. Andre Miller saw Zhou Yi rushing over and knew that Zhou Yi's breakthrough was very sharp, but with his years of experience, he should be able to stop him, which is what Andre Miller thinks.
So he took a step back and was ready to stick to Zhou Yi at any time. Although he was hard to defend, he would definitely not be able to defend Zhou Yi's breakthrough, because Zhou Yi's speed was only faster and slower than Bynum. But if he wanted to stick to Zhou Yi, it would be much easier. However, his move was already within Zhou Yi's prediction. Seeing Andre Miller retreating, Zhou Yi did not break through. Instead, he stopped urgently and took a simple retreat. Zhou Yi jumped out of the three-point line and gently sent the basketball out.
Seeing the shooting of the memorial, Andre Miller could only lift his head helplessly and look at the trajectory of the aerial basketball. But he didn't believe that Zhou Yi could still make a three-pointer, and he didn't believe that his touch was so good. So he shouted at Marcus Camby, who was inside, and said: "Marcus, pay attention to the rebound."
The basketball gently turned into the basket and turned three or four times on the basket, but it was obvious that Zhou Yi had no sense of hot touch in the first half. After turning three or four times, the basketball fell out. Fortunately, Samuel Durhamport, who was inside, pressed Marcus Cambi's waist and stood up at a critical moment. With his height advantage, he had a pair of long arms. He grabbed the basketball into his arms in one step, and then jumped high, wanting to fill the basketball into the basket.
But when Marcus Camby saw that he had not grabbed the defensive rebound, Durham Porter wanted to score in front of him, so he stretched out his hand and fouled! But Durham Porter obviously had rich experience, so he gently put the basketball into the basket and watched the basketball hit, and the referee's whistle also sounded. The entire Pistons lineup was in full swing. The ball was indeed very beautiful.
"Beautiful job!" Da Ben patted Durham Porter's shoulder and smiled. It was hard to see Da Ben smile, but he also laughed at this moment, which was enough to show how beautiful the ball of Durham Porter was.
All the fans of the court saw the visiting team score again, and the score difference gradually moved closer to the double digits, and they couldn't help but feel anxious. Therefore, when Durham Porter made a free throw, a burst of booing sounded like gongs and drums.
But this did not disturb Durham Porter's mind. Durham Porter had been in this league for 10 years, and his mood was so easily shaken.
With extra fees, the Pistons have widened the score gap to 10 points. Not only are the home fans starting to be anxious, but even the home players are anxious at this moment.
Nicholas Batum missed a three-pointer from the outside, Durham Porter grabbed the rebound and handed it to Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi made a quick break and assigned to James Percy, who ran outside the Trail Blazers' three-point line. James Percy took the knife and took 3 points again. In this game, the Pistons obviously wanted to have a three-point rain.
Seeing that the score difference was getting bigger and bigger, Trail Blazers head coach Nate McMillan quickly called for a timeout.
"Although we are 13 points ahead, we must not be careless. The opponent has the top three shooting guards in the league, so we have to work harder and strive to win them." Kuster said to his disciples.
After the game started, the Pistons Ben Wallace was replaced by Greg Monroe, while the Trail Blazers Andre Miller was replaced by Amon Johnson.
After being scolded by head coach Nate McMillan, the Trail Blazers players were fighting with the Pistons players as if they were desperate.
Especially Brandon Roy, after the game restarted, he scored 5 points in a row with free throws, but although the other Trail Blazers played desperately, they had no touch. Only Brandon Roy fought alone. The Pistons, under the organization and support of Zhou Yi, flourished in full swing. At the end of the third quarter, the score difference widened to 16 points in one fell swoop.
Although Zhou Yi only scored 2 points in the third quarter, he gave 6 assists. He was the biggest contributor to the Pistons' score. Both players and fans were surprised by Zhou Yi's crazy performance, especially Kenny Smith sitting in the commentary seat.
