Chapter 598 Did You See, We Are Killing the Pistons! We Are About to Win!
On the sidelines, in front of the Suns bench, Frank and the coaching staff are discussing the lineup for the second quarter.
"Do you want to chase after the victory and crush them at halftime?" Frank couldn't restrain the thought in his heart, he wanted to confirm the final victory faster.
"Hammer, what do you think?" He finally asked Li Ba.
"Frank, you decide." Li Ba expressed his respect for Frank.
"Okay, Chandler, you, Marion, Battier, Payton, you five go first." With Li Ba's support, Frank said excitedly.
In this way, at the beginning of the second quarter, Li Ba continued to play and maintained a lineup of three main starters, plus Chandler and Payton. The defensive ability of this lineup was even stronger than that of the starting lineup, without any weaknesses. and bugs.
"Gary, give it your all and get the ring you want in this quarter." Li Ba said to Payton before playing.
Peyton nodded heavily, and said excitedly: "Don't worry, Hammer, I will prevent that rookie Billups to death."
Li Ba raised his right fist, and after others put their hands on it, he hissed sharply: "Slaughter Piston!"
"Slaughter Pistons!"
At the American West Arena, the audience responded with a roar.
"It's coming again! It's coming again! The Suns didn't shut down in the second quarter, and they actually sent the strongest defensive lineup. They must be planning to completely defeat the Pistons in the second quarter..."
Yu Jia roared excitedly.
Outside the arena, Liu Xiaoli was very depressed, Li Erwan, you play as soon as you play, why are you hugging my Qianqian? How many times have you hugged?
"Sister Liu, your family, Yifei, is hopeful this time." Li Xue, Li Bing's younger sister, said enviously.
"How can it be? The girl doesn't have any works after Immortal Sword, what's the use of Xiaohua Xiaohua calling? The second line is a little unstable, I'm in a hurry."
Liu Xiaoli said modestly.
"Look at Gao Yuanyuan, I only hugged Tie Hammer once, and the media has hyped it up. Is this the fourth time for your Yifei?"
Li Xue glanced at Gao Yuanyuan's manager over there, and then whispered with a smile on her ear.
Liu Xiaoli's face turned dark, what did you say, girl? Does my family, Yifei, rely on hugging Li Erwan a few times to get to the front line? What did that become? She was too angry to speak.
Li Xue pouted, what are you pretending? Hug a few times and you'll be on the front line, just have fun!
Seeing that Li Ba continued to play, the Pistons did not replace the main players, and all five tigers played.
Today is likely to be the last match, and there is no need to save energy, so fight!
On the court, the Pistons advanced to the frontcourt.
Li Ba played the fourth position, and he was moved to the right wing by Rasheeda. At this time, his extremely fierce eyes were fixed on Billups.
Billups seemed to sense Li Ba's gaze and glanced at him.
This glance made him a little distracted at this moment.
With just this little distraction, the experienced Payton immediately began to press close.
Payton's sudden grab made Billups a little flustered. The ball stopped in his hands and could not be passed out in time.
As a result, the Suns' double-teaming began immediately.
Li Ba threw Rashid away immediately and rushed to the top of the arc.
"Steal! Hammer steal, Marion is going down...Prince is chasing...Hammer pass...he is following up..."
The Suns on-site commentator was yelling loudly.
Marion frantically advanced into the paint area, and Prince was too tightly wrapped around him. He didn't dare to get up, threw the ball directly over his head, and then flashed to the side.
Two steps behind, Li Ba burst into the basket facing the Pistons.
"boom!"
Clasping his hands heavily, Li Ba's body swung forward, and with a bang, he slammed into the back of Prince in front of him.
Prince flew up like a scarecrow and landed on top of a bunch of reporters with a bang.
"Oh! Ah!!!"
There was a sudden exclamation from the audience, and then it turned into a huge cheer.
"Brothers, follow me to slaughter the piston!"
At the basket, Li Ba glanced at Prince, turned his head and raised his fist at his teammate, hissing wildly.
"Slaughter Pistons!"
The generals of the Suns and all the Suns fans responded frantically.
Li Ba added a free throw and made a hit.
At 15:37, the Suns led by 22 points.
Pistons attack.
"Defense!"
Li Ba roared sharply.
"Defense!"
The audience responded.
Billups advanced to the top of the arc, and saw Li Ba mentioned below the free throw line again, and there was a large blank area in the rear paint area.
At this time, Big Ben was behind Li Ba, and Hamilton on the right quickly started to bypass Battier and cut into the paint.
Before Hamilton entered the paint, Billups chose to pass the ball.
Hamilton received the ball and drove into the paint with the ball.
Battier was always half a step slower, defending on the lower side.
At the moment of passing the ball, Li Ba immediately turned to the left, broke free from Da Ben's entanglement and rushed to the basket, forming a pincer attack on Hamilton with Battier.
The double-team was about to form, and Hamilton immediately jumped up leaning on Battier, pressing Battier with his right hand and picking the ball with his left hand.
Battier was held down and couldn't fully jump up.
At the moment the ball was released, Li Ba arrived. He also pressed the big book on the left with his left hand to prevent him from jumping up, while he himself rose violently, stretched out his right arm, and yanked vigorously towards the basketball.
"Snapped!"
The basketball was drawn on the backboard, and then rebounded rapidly with a bang.
"Yeah, another big cap! The ball... bounced to the frontcourt, Marbury made a quick move, and he got it! Billups chased and defended in place, but Marbury didn't make a shot!"
In the roar of the Suns commentator, players from the two teams quickly flocked to the frontcourt of the Suns.
Li Ba ran at full speed, dropped Da Ben, and rushed into the frontcourt.
"Stop him!"
Larry Brown yelled.
Rasheed Wallace quickly returned to the defense on the left wing, only one step ahead of Li Ba, turned around and looked, his face shook, and he changed direction and rushed over.
He was hit by Li Ba several times in the finals, and his old injuries had recurred. He really didn't want to do such a thing, but he had to listen to Larry Brown's orders. Besides, he also hated Li Ba very much, so in the end it was passed.
"Go away!"
Seeing Rasheed Wallace reaching out to pull him, Li Ba swung his left arm violently, throwing the latter away.
Under the influence of his impact, Rasheed Wallace staggered and fell directly on the top arc, landing on his face and falling firmly.
But Li Ba went straight into the paint and strode towards the basket.
Prince and Billups, who came back to defend, did not dare to come to block them anymore, watching Li Ba jump up.
"boom!"
Amidst the strong sound of exploding the basket, the huge basketball hoop sank violently, as if it was about to collapse.
"yeah!!!!!"
Suddenly there was a huge cheer in the audience.
The referee blew the whistle, and Rasheed Wallace suffered a bloody face injury and had to leave the game to deal with the injury.
Li Ba yelled at the auditorium: "Did you see that? Tonight, now, we are killing the Pistons! We are about to win the championship! We are unrivaled! We are the strongest! The strongest!"
"We are the strongest! The strongest! The strongest..." The audience followed him and shouted.
"Hooooooooooooooooooo..."
The momentum of the sun was too strong, and the pressure exerted on the Pistons players was really too great. They kept taking deep breaths, which still made them feel suffocated, which forced them to open their mouths wide to help them breathe more oxygen.
Liu Yifei felt her heart beating so fast.
Such a person gave her a great sense of excitement and conquest.
"This is the role of a leader! I'm glad I chose the hammer!" Seeing this scene, Colangelo proudly said loudly to Li Ning beside him.
"I'm also very glad that I signed the Hammer." Li Ning said with a smile.
