Chapter 162 Nemesis

The power of the midnight snack is huge, and the power of the French dinner is even more terrifying. Although the Hornets quickly adjusted their tactics, the Wizards really fought for a luxurious French dinner. Although the Wizards scored again in silence under the Hornets' close defense, the Wizards achieved the ultimate defense, making every point so difficult. The game ended with frequent blowouts, because the Wizards exploded slightly in the second quarter, and the score kept hovering around 5 points.

The Wizards won because the Wizards' head coach Doug Collins came up with such a French feast.

On the way back to Washington, everyone on the team ran to Doug Collins to report what they wanted to eat and taste. Everyone was frightened, afraid that what they ordered would not be approved, but everyone returned to their seats happily and praised Doug Collins for his wise and powerful skills!

But when we arrived in Washington and returned to the club and saw the notification posted at the door of the locker room, everyone's eyes turned green.

The notification reads like this:

To celebrate the team's successful entry into the playoffs, the club decided to hold a small celebration at the Charming Paris Hotel at 18:00 on Saturday night. All players are invited to participate on time and bring their families!

"I'm fooled!"

"I've been cheated!"

No matter how coveted the French feast, we must face the Dallas Mavericks' last regular season opponent before the French feast.

To be honest, the West has been a bit outrageous in recent years. The Sacramento Kings are ahead of the pack this season. With one game left in the regular season, they have achieved 61 wins, followed by the Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs, and Dallas Mavericks. All three teams have won 57 games. The Minnesota Timberwolves, ranked fifth in the West, have all won 50 games, which is the second place in the Eastern Conference, and is exactly the same as the Pistons' record.

The Wizards never thought of winning this game at home from top to bottom. This irrelevant game has become a stage for substitutes. The head coach does not dare to send main players to the court to fight, because everyone is afraid that their generals will be injured in such an irrelevant game. Of course, those substitutes do not dare to defend hard in such a game, fighting for opponents. Whether they are substitutes or not, as long as they are not injured, they will go to the playoffs. If they are injured at this last moment, they will have to try it.

Dirk Nowitzki only played for 8 minutes and scored 6 points, but was replaced by Wang Zhizhi. Michael Finley and Steve Nash only emerged in the first half and no one was found in the second half. Danny Manning and Van Exel played a little longer, but they only played in the first three quarters. The rest were all a group of substitutes looking for form on the court.

The Wizards are the same, with Chris Whitney and Tyrone and Rue taking turns to play, Chauncey Billups staying on the bench directly, Richard Hamilton played in two quarters, Christian Letterner played in two quarters, Courtney Alexander played in three quarters, I was a little better, as the core of the tactics, I actually stayed in the third minute of the fourth quarter.

There was no defense at all, the team played passionately, the score reached 63:71 in the second quarter, and it turned into 86:98 at the end of the third quarter. When a group of pure substitutes in the fourth quarter, the score actually reached 113:129.

The fans on the sidelines watched this game were so satisfying. I dare say that this game was definitely the most smooth game of the Wizards' offense this year. Of course, defense may also be the worst game. This game almost tied the team's score record by the opponent.

After this game, the playoffs list of the East and West League League was finally released.

Although the Pacers chased after the second half of the league, unfortunately they owe too much money in the first half of the season. Although they finally won four consecutive games and won 42 games, unfortunately, the Toronto Raptors also fiercely won the Sacramento Kings in the last game, so they also won 42 games. However, the Toronto Raptors had an advantage in the calculation of small points and used their disadvantage in small points to eliminate the Pacers out of the playoffs. In Jordan's words: This is God's punishment for the Pacers, God's punishment for Reggie Miller, and his big mouth.

In the last two games, the Celtics lost two consecutive games with no face, but was overtaken by the Pistons at the last moment. In this way, the Pistons became the second in the East and the Wizards ranked seventh in the East. In this way, the Wizards met the Detroit Autobots whom they were most reluctant to meet.

The Wizards coaches scratched their heads and when they met the Detroit Pistons, the head coach of any team would have to worry about brain cells. The Detroit Pistons players were like Detroit auto workers, everyone was blue-collar, they fought for rebounds, they fought for floors, and they could throw their bodies into the air for a ball that was about to fly out of bounds.

NBA history has never had a second team that incorporated the characteristics of the city into the team like the Pistons. The Detroit Pistons players are like the bottom

Detroit was brilliant, and its ancestors were also very generous. They entered the finals many times in the 1970s. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, they dominated the entire world with the image of the Bad Boy Legion. Smiling Assassin Thomas, villain Bill Ranbill, Dennis Rodman, and their current general manager, Mr. Joe Dumas, were all so fierce on the court, and they all performed defense to the extreme. Although time has passed for a long time, although Michael Jordan has already crushed the Bad Boy Legion to pieces, you have to admit one thing. When Michael Jordan's peak arrived, Thomas, Dumas, and Ranbill had reached the end of their careers.

Although the glorious years of the Bad Boys Legion have passed on the iron-blooded defense of the Bad Boys Legion. N years after Dennis Rodman left Detroit, they have a top defensive player again and again - Ben Wallace.

Last season, Ben Wallace has won the best defensive player in the league. This season, Ben Wallace's defensive skills have improved to the next level, averaging 13.0 rebounds and 3.48 blocks per game, which makes him far ahead in these two statistics. I am very sad because I ranked second in both statistics, including 12 rebounds and 3.43 blocks.

I am currently ranked second in the best defensive team, but the Pistons who are selected for the best defensive team with me are still players of the Pistons - Clifford Robinson - the power forward of the Pistons. Clifford Robinson, who is 208 tall, can play center and power forward. His characteristics are a bit similar to mine. He can score three-pointers outside the three-point line and has a very high shooting percentage. He has made a total of 1,253 three-pointers in his career. Before being surpassed by Dirk Nowitzki, who is 212 cm tall, he was the player with the highest height of more than 1,000 three-pointers in NBA history. So far, he has ranked 21st in NBA history in the history of the NBA. This is an extremely terrible number.

Of course, if the Pistons' inside line is just like this, the Wizards are not afraid. After all, Christian Letterner and I are not vegetarians. In addition, these stunning guys like Itan Thomas, Brandon Heywood, Janhdi White are enough to compete with the Pistons. Unfortunately, the two inside lines starting at the Pistons are the shortest in all their inside lineups. There are 216 cm Serbian Lacot Vadda, 213 cm Mickey Moore, and 213 cm Zelco Rebraca. Their strength in the inside is really shocking.

Putting aside the inside, let’s take a look at the outside.

The Pistons' shooting guard position is the team's boss - Jerry Starkhouse. Although his toilet-style free throw is not very elegant, it is undeniable that he is really awesome now. As Michael Jordan's junior brother, Jerry Starkhouse, who is from North Carolina, can carry a basket and squeeze defenders close to the basket with his tonnage and height. With a simple back-sitting jump shot, he can eat most of the league's shooting guards. Moreover, Starkhouse's three-point shooting percentage should not be underestimated. With his strong breakthrough ability, he can completely defeat Richard Hamilton. Obviously, Richard Hamilton, who has an average defensive ability, cannot defend him.

In the small forward position, the old Sam Mitchell and Courtney Alexander face the current chairman of the Players' Union Michael Curry, the sixth man this year, Collins Williams and legendary superstar Rick Barry's son Joan Barry, obviously has no advantage. Although Michael Curry is already useless, although he is the starting lineup, Collins Williams has always occupied most of the playing time. Whether it is Courtney Alexander, Sam Mitchell, or Troni Nesby, none of them can handle Collins Williams, and with 206 cm Rodney White, the Wizards can't handle it.

Perhaps the only advantage of the Wizards is the point guard. Although Damon Jones has a great reputation in later generations and Chucky Atkins' three-pointers are very accurate, it is undeniable that they cannot limit the flounder's Chauncey Billups and Pistons' organizational guard level at most is similar to Tyrone and Ru.

The only variable that the Wizards cannot win this series is the position of the organizational guard. There are basically no advantages in other positions, at most it is useless to redeem the Wizards. The Wizards met their biggest nemesis this season.
