Chapter 252 Bad Boy Legion
The Pistons, the most famous in the world, is naturally the Bad Boys.
In the 80s, this team blocked Jordan from the finals again and again.
Of course, this is also a notorious, notorious team.
In the history of the NBA, there are many outstanding teams that are remembered, such as the Celtics era, the Lakers Show Time era, the Bulls team in the Jordan era...
Only the Bad Boys of the Pistons, what people remember is not his honor, but his filth!
It can be said that until now, the Pistons are still one of the least popular teams in the league.
Because even now, the Pistons are continuing the playing style of the Bad Boys.
Although the movements were restrained a lot, as the saying goes, dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and the son of a mouse can make holes.
As long as there is such a little shadow on the Pistons, it will always make people think of the Bad Boys Legion. Who can have a good impression?
You can imagine that when Lambiel decided to retire and the Bad Boys Corps decided to disband, the league couldn't wait to hold a celebration meeting.
As you can imagine, only one of the bad boys who won two championships and countless honors was inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Thomas the Smiling Assassin, a slightly more civilized player in the Bad Boys.
That's right, he is only a little more civilized, after all, he is already a good person compared to other people who do all kinds of evil.
Coupled with his honor, he was selected into the Hall of Fame and is also the top 50 players in NBA history.
As for the others, not so lucky.
Even Rodman, if he hadn't assisted Jordan to win three consecutive championships, he probably wouldn't have been selected.
From the NBA's official point of view, the Pistons Bad Boys are both history and a disgrace.
For a long time, the Bad Boys brought only bad influence to the NBA.
Even after learning about the Bad Boys Legion, many later fans felt only shock and disbelief.
It can be said that the NBA is like a big pot of rice, and everyone is trying to enjoy the best part of it.
However, the bad boy army not only grabbed the food with their hands and feet, but also smashed the pot, so that other people had no food.
This must be unacceptable to David Stern, who has been committed to the development and promotion of the NBA.
If it weren't for the great influence of Thomas and Rodman, he probably wouldn't let them be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Because every time the Bad Boys appear in the newspaper, it is a blow to the NBA.
The reason why I say so much is of course not to criticize the bad boy army, it is unnecessary.
It's to remind the Heat players to be careful when playing, especially Chen Mo.
In the regular season, because the referee whistled more strictly, the player's movements were smaller.
But in the playoffs, as the confrontation escalated, the referee whistled less, and the players' movements would only get bigger and bigger.
And as the movement gets bigger, it becomes difficult for you to judge whether this movement is aimed at people or at the ball?
On May 5, the Miami Heat traveled to Detroit.
That's right, the Heat set off early in the morning instead of choosing to go to Detroit early.
Because everyone understands that even if they go to Detroit ahead of schedule, they will not be able to rest in peace.
Anyway, the boss is rich and powerful, and directly arranged a charter flight to send the Heat to Detroit to ensure that the players have enough rest.
Sure enough, after coming to Detroit, especially when going to the arena, all kinds of troubles came into contact.
For a while there was a power outage, for a while there was no water, and for a while the key to the training hall was not found!
Nothing major, anyway, all kinds of small troubles continue.
To put it bluntly, such small troubles cannot affect the players, and the players don't even know about these things.
It's just for mentality. All of this is handled by the professional staff of the Heat.
Well, when the Pistons go to Miami, they will naturally have the same treatment.
It's normal for the staff to make small moves. Is it all for the sake of winning?
Even, some NBA stars do not hesitate to go off the field in person, just to engage the opponent's mentality.
For example, in the 19th season, the Warriors fought against Mosaic. Before the game, Curry prepared to adapt to the training on the field.
This kind of training is normal, as long as you make an appointment with the other party and don't cause conflicts, because there are many people training.
But at that time, Curry was about to go to the Toyota Center at the appointed time, but was kicked out by Paul who was training.
It is estimated that Paul is unwilling to let Curry adapt to the venue, or he may want to engage in mentality.
I have to say that Paul actually succeeded, because of that game, Curry really didn't score a point in the first half.
Of course, the explosion in the second half directly killed Mosaic, so there is no way.
Later, there was also news that this matter was false and a rumor, but the person involved has never said it.
To be honest, this is always the case in the NBA. If a piece of news is passed on in a clear and orderly manner, after a period of time, the so-called "participant" will come forward and say that it is false.
Well, when the news first started to spread, why didn't anyone come out to deny it?
Moreover, this so-called party is actually an insignificant person.
A small episode does not affect the progress of the game.
At ten o'clock in the evening, at 18:[-], with the whistle of the referee, the third game of the series officially started.
I don't know if there is a bonus at home, but Ben actually flew high and grabbed the ball.
The Pistons attacked first, and the basketball still came to Rasheed Wallace first.
No way, the Pistons don't want to purely attack from the outside. If they want to play a three-dimensional inside and outside, they have to let Rashid catch the ball.
Because Big Ben really doesn't have the ability to hold the ball.
Rasheed Wallace didn't mess around either, but did a pick-and-roll with Hamilton.
Blake was also very confused. Facing Hamilton's singles with the ball, he had no ability to resist.
Hamilton did not rely on speed to make a sudden breakthrough, but just rolled Blake into the inside line a little bit.
The Heat thought that the Pistons would adjust their offense, but they didn't expect that it would be an adjustment in this regard.
It is really that Hamilton is too impressive, the little prince of CIC who is good at running without asking.
It can be said that the way Hamilton plays has restricted him to a small space.
No need to run, good at middle distance, not only he plays like this, but also most people think.
Now he is uncharacteristically holding the ball in singles, which really catches people off guard.
Moreover, this is obviously the key offensive direction of the Pistons at the beginning of the game.
It is naturally impossible for the Heat to allow Hamilton to score so easily, and Grant assisted in the defense immediately.
Hamilton was obviously prepared and chose to pass the ball at the first time, while Rasheed Wallace had already set up the fort.
Eddie Jones hurriedly made up the defense, but unfortunately, facing Rasheed's wonderful shooting defense, the interference effect was not great.
