Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The first quarter was one-sided, and the second quarter quickly entered a tug-of-war. For any strong team, how to fight the tug-of-war well is a necessary lesson, just like the middle period of a long-distance running at a constant speed, which is a test for the team.  During the period of toughness, tactical literacy and players' personal abilities, a team with insufficient toughness, insufficient tactical literacy or lack of talent will often be slowly left behind during the see-saw period of even-speed running, resulting in a sprint that is too far behind in the final period.  No strength.  At the same time, if you use too much force during the constant speed period and run with all your strength in order to catch up with your opponent, the result will be that you will be overtaken by your opponent in the later stage because you have more than enough energy but not enough energy.  Therefore, playing a tug-of-war is very important for the team, and it is also a great test for the players' willpower, because during this period of time, the offense of both sides is often not very smooth, and the intensity and physical load of the game will increase with the game.  In-depth and gradually strengthened, therefore, there are two key points in the tug-of-war, one is the depth of the bench, and the other is the tactical execution.  In the middle of the second quarter, the actions on both sides began to get bigger and bigger. When Laimbeer gave Gan Guoyang an elbow while grabbing a backboard, Gan Guoyang did not ask the referee to argue, nor did he hit Laimbeer in retaliation. Gan Guoyang knew that  , this insidious guy is waiting for him to come out.  In response, Gan Guoyang received Drexler's pass on the offensive end and gave Laimbeer a dunk.  Subsequently, Adelman and Daley did not let the two of them continue to face each other on the court, and both of them were replaced. Adelman was afraid that Gan Guoyang could not help but hit Laimbeer, while Daley needed Laimbeer.  Get enough rest and continue to consume Gan Guoyang in the second half.  So, Buck Williams came on as a substitute, and the Pistons replaced veteran James Edwards.  One of the manifestations of the strength of the Pistons is that they have too many people who can play, and they have a group of capable players inside and outside. If the Pistons choose five up and five down now, they can still compete with the Trail Blazers.  Vinnie Johnson, the leading scorer on the bench, has scored 6 points in a row since coming on in the second quarter, which is the main factor that allows the Pistons to close the score. Edwards is a very good rim protector in the paint, Laimbeer.  Although off the field, with Edwards around, it's not easy for the Blazers to score points in the paint.  In comparison, the Blazers mainly rely on Buck Williams and Jim Paxson on the bench. Buck Williams can perfectly complement the fourth and fifth positions.  Jim Paxson's several outside outbursts in the playoffs, especially his magical performance at the last moment against the Lakers in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals, were an important attack for the Blazers to advance to the finals.  It's just that compared with the Pistons' deep bench, the two-person substitute is too thin. Of course, Duckworth is also a good backup, but the single and overlapping functions mean that he has few opportunities to come on as a substitute, and the effect is not average.  , but the initial effect is pretty good.  After Buck Williams came on the court, his departure began to take effect. He had begun to have the attributes of a microwave oven.  Almost caused a foul on Edwards.  Subsequently, on the defensive end, Johnson passed the ball to Edwards for an inside single. As a result, Buck Williams suddenly stepped forward to cover the defense. Edwards had a high center of gravity and slow hands. The ball was intercepted by Williams, and the Blazers immediately launched  Fast break.  From the end of the first quarter to the middle of the second quarter, the Blazers had not had the opportunity to launch a hearty fast break for a long time.  "Porter quickly advanced with the ball and passed the ball to Sabonis who was following. Sabonis passed it to Kesi on the left. Kesi made a layup! But there was interference and the ball did not go in. Sabonis made a tip-in, but still  If it doesn't go in, Williams will make another pass The ball goes in! Williams' tip-in! "This goal fully reflects the nature of the Blazers, even if a heavy center like Sabonis has played for a whole season.  To fly, the ball he passed to Kesi was also very beautiful, but Dennis Rodman under the basket played a dirty trick and deliberately pushed Kesi under the basket. The referee did not notice it, but Kesi  His center of gravity was unstable, he missed a layup and almost fell.  In the end, Buck Williams, who was in great form, made up the ball, but Cosey got into a fight with Rodman under the basket.  "Beep beep beep beep beep!" The referee immediately blew the whistle and separated the two men. Rodman looked indifferent. In this regard, he and Laimbeer were exactly the same. They imitated each other. No matter how fierce the court was, they would always look calm.  Qingyun looked calm, vowing to make his opponent angry to death.  "A somewhat dangerous move, but the referee did not call a foul The Pistons passed the ball to Edwards again, and Edwards caught the ball, which was not very smooth But Sabonis committed a foul, a pushing foul. The referee tonight seemed  It¡¯s not that fair.¡± Shaunley also began to complain about the referee¡¯s standards.?The referee did not call the Pistons several dangerous fouls tonight. Perhaps the Pistons players were so skilled at doing these little tricks that they easily escaped the referee's eyes.  At this time, the Pistons seemed determined to let Edwards attack. They served from the outside and the ball was passed to Edwards, but Sabonis was too tall. Although Edwards was 7 feet tall, his weight was worse than Sabonis.  Quite a few, Sabonis stood in front of him like a door panel and a goalpost, making it difficult for Edwards to turn around and attack.  "Edwards passed the ball to Dumars. When the time was up, Dumars' jump shot was blocked by Buck Williams! However, the ball went out of bounds and the Pistons still had the ball." After Buck Williams came on the court  It can be said that he can do anything. After all, this is his first time participating in the finals and his first time playing. The veteran seemed extremely excited.  Then the Pistons served from the outside, and Edwards still got the ball, but this time, he received a pass from his teammate in the corner on the right. Sabonis did not guard him. Edwards shot directly from the mid-range and hit a two-pointer. The veteran looked like  He breathed a sigh of relief as if he had completed the task, and hurried back to defend.  The final result of the Pistons' difficult attack was two points. It was not as dazzling as the Blazers' goal, but their tactics were executed very well. In the three attacks, the final finisher was Edwards, and every attack failed.  Later, the tactics will change.  From the low post on the right baseline, to the left rib, and then to the right corner, Edwards switches in these three positions. The Pistons' tactics will switch with the change of Edwards' position. Edwards is just a Piston.  Just a backup center.  This is enough to show how strong the Pistons' tactical execution is. After all, they are the defending champions. After all, their core lineup has been honed for nearly five years.  In comparison, the Blazers' offense is more of an open attack. They have tactics, but they are by no means the rigid and traceable tactical movements like during Ramsey's period. In order to give full play to the players' abilities, Adelman  Personal ability gives players a lot of freedom on the court. Porter, a point guard with the 30th overall pick, can switch offense and defense and make various pull-up jump shots in a team headed by Gan Guoyang. With Adelman¡¯s encouragement,  Inseparable.  This tactical system makes the Blazers' offense feel like a storm. For example, in the first quarter, everyone played like an All-Star, but in the stalemate stage, it is easy to fall apart, especially when Gan Guoyang is not around.  If Gan Guoyang is present, this loophole can be plugged. If Gan Guoyang is not present, the loophole will appear, and Gan Guoyang cannot stay on the court forever.  "Drexler broke through and pulled up for a layup! This shot was too difficult and missed, but Buck Williams grabbed the offensive rebound! Williams turned around and made a jump shot, but still missed! Edwards got the rebound  "This time, Buck Williams couldn't continue to score. He was so excited that he forgot that the person in front of him was the 7-foot Edwards, and he was only 6-8.  Vinnie Johnson controlled the ball unhurriedly. At this time, the score between the two sides was 45:43, and the Trail Blazers still led the Pistons by two points.  A major feature of the Pistons' offensive end is the three guards in the backcourt. Thomas, Johnson and Dumars take turns controlling the situation. Now it's microwave time.  "Vinnie Johnson broke through to the inside with the help of Edwards' pick-and-roll, was double-teamed, and passed the ball to Edwards. Edwards moved the ball to the baseline. Sally caught the ball from the baseline and made a jumper! Hit! 45-level, 45-level, the two sides returned to the game.  Same starting line. "The forward player's corner jump shot is a common tactic for the Pistons, and they tied the score quietly.
