I am super giant

Chapter 231 Received the Big Z of the Prophet
This is Big Ben, no matter how silent he is off the court, once he is on the court, he is a passionate player.

And Ilgauskas here is slightly worse, both on and off the court is too gentle, which is also the temperament of most white players.

Snapped!
It's a pity that the height gap is there, and Big Ben still hasn't won Ilgauskas with the jump ball.

Big Z's big palm swung back, and the ball entered the formation of the Cavaliers.

Ye Feng caught the ball, stabilized it, and started to advance.

While advancing, Ye Feng observed the Pistons lineup, thinking about the difference between the five Pistons and the previous four.

Why in the end, just one more Rasheed Wallace, this team will undergo a qualitative change?

Needless to say, Rasheed Wallace's ability, before coming to the Pistons, he was selected as an All-Star and known as an all-around power forward.

Offensively, he can hit from the basket to the three-point line.Can hit the basket, organize, break through, and shoot from long distances...

On the defensive end, he can defend from the inside to the outside.Big defense against small, strong defense against center forward, pick and roll defense, complementary defense, assist defense...

Rasheed is even more versatile than Garnett. After all, Garnett can't handle a big center, and his three-pointers are not so accurate.

As for the shortcomings, it may be that Rashid is so versatile that he can do everything, but none of them has reached the peak level, and it is always one level lower than the highest level.

Of course, even if it is one level lower, it is higher than the league average.

With the addition of Rasheed, the Pistons have more options on the offensive end and fewer loopholes on the defensive end.

But Ye Feng still didn't feel that this was all the changes he brought.

There must be some changes that Ye Feng couldn't see, maybe it was the legendary chemical reaction.

Before Rasheed came, Ben's position was still unclear, and he was swinging between the two positions of center and power forward.

But now, the Pistons have determined the lineup, with Rashid playing power forward and Ben playing center.

The 206cm big book seems a little inappropriate as a center forward, but it works very well.

When really defending, Ben was placed at the power forward, defending Boozer.Rasheed is positioned as a big center, defending Ilgauskas.

As soon as the big Z was in position, he immediately started asking for the ball.

As a gentle and restrained person, Big Z is rarely like this.

But as soon as he met the Pistons, he was a little excited and excited, perhaps because of the collisions and frictions that happened here before.

Ilgauskas played Rashid in singles, and the two weighed about the same. Rashid weighed 104 kilograms, and Big Z weighed 108 kilograms.In terms of height, Ilgauskas is 211 centimeters taller than Rashid, who is 10 centimeters.

Seriously, Ilgauskas should have an advantage.

But he pushed a few times, but he didn't push Rashid.

Rashid is very light, but looks very strong, in fact, his strength is also very good, and his foot plate is very stable.

This is a bit like Duncan, maybe it is the legendary bone weight.

But precisely, the weakest part of Ilgauskas is the lower body. His excessive height makes his lower body very unstable and his strength is very insufficient.

Therefore, relying on strength, Ilgauskas has no advantage.

Big Z also seemed to have expected it, and the two pushes just now were just a test.

As soon as you find that you can't move, you immediately change your mind and look for opportunities by footsteps.

As a European center forward, Big Z's basic skills are still in place, not to mention the level of Dameng, but it is also quite satisfactory.

But after walking around continuously, he found that he couldn't get rid of Rashid at all.

Rashid is very flexible, coupled with extremely rich defensive experience and accurate judgment, Big Z's footsteps can't find opportunities.

After failing common sense twice in a row, Big Z became a little anxious. Seeing the passage of time, the rest of the Pistons shrank back and could only rely on their height to force their shots.

However, interfered by Rashid, the ball bounced out of the frame and missed.

boom!
Big Ben scored a rebound, switched offense and defense, and Billups quickly attacked with the ball.

The Pistons' strong defense does not mean that their offense is weak. Although there are fewer offensive rounds in each game, the defense turns to offense very quickly.

In the past, there were veteran big center Campbell and European insider Okur slowing down the rhythm.

Now, the five Pistons pushed to the Cavaliers' halfcourt in an instant, catching the Cavaliers by surprise.

Billups passed to Rasheed, and Rasheed passed it to Prince. Prince went straight to the basket and scored an easy layup.

2: 0.

The Cavaliers, who grabbed the first offensive ball, lost two points first.

The entire Cavaliers team was a little confused.

"Seriously, Ilgauskas was responsible for the ball. He was holding the ball for too long, and he wasn't actually as attacking as he was supposed to be."

Kenny Smith explained.

"That's right. In the past, Big Z had an advantage. He had an absolute height to play against Ben, and he had an advantage in footwork against Campbell. But for Rashid, the advantage of Big Z was very small."

Unusually, Barkley agrees with Smith.

Of course, Ye Feng also realized this, and Rasheed made up for the biggest loophole of the Pistons, which was the weakness of not being able to guard against big centers.

In fact, without Rashid, the Pistons were blasted by O'Neal, Yao Ming, and Big Z on the inside.

But after Rashid came, O'Neill, Yao Ming, and Big Z were never so comfortable again, at least they were greatly restricted.

If you eat Rashid alone, your big instinct can help you defend.

If you only eat the big money, Rashid can also help defend.

After all, Double Wallace's supplementary defense and supplementary defense capabilities are extremely good.

After that, the Cavaliers also tried to let Ilgauskas play the big book again, but when Rashid leaned here, Ilgauskas' offensive point was immediately strangled.

Seeing this, Ye Feng no longer accepted the reason and went to the inside, but tried to break through from the outside.

This ball, Ye Feng handed it to James, and then organized the others to pull away, giving James space for singles.

As soon as James held the ball, Prince immediately rushed up like a big octopus.

It has to be said that the Pistons have a tradition of training defense.

The former "Little Prince" Prince is also very strong on the offensive end.

He has only been in the Pistons for less than two seasons, and the offensive end basically only has fixed-point shooting, and other offensive abilities have fully degraded.

But on the defensive end, Prince has grown up.

With a height of 206 centimeters, a super long wingspan, fast moving speed, and a positive defensive attitude, he has become a defensive pioneer on the outside of the Pistons, and his defensive ability greatly exceeds that of Hamilton and Billups.

This season, apart from being afraid of Artest, the super small forwards in the league are most afraid of Prince.

Seeing these two people, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

But James is James, and the difference between him and other small forwards in the league is his incomprehensible body.

He is not afraid of Artest's brutal aggressive defense, nor is he afraid of Prince's octopus-style sticky defense.

Prince alone really can't stand James.

However, the Pistons' defense does not rely on one person, but a system composed of five people.

There are harassment from Billups and Hamilton on the outside, and Big Ben and Rasheed on the inside who are good at big defense and small defense.

James rushed to the basket, but was forced by the Pistons team to completely deform his movements, so he could only rely on his physical fitness to force the shot.

boom!
It's a pity that James didn't have such good luck tonight and failed to score this goal.

Immediately, the Pistons turned from defense to offense.

This time, the Cavaliers were prepared and did not let the Pistons break into a fast break.

Seeing this, the seasoned Billups stopped immediately and stabilized the rhythm.
