I just want to lie down and win

Chapter 155 The best player of the month, a deal caught off guard (4000, please subscribe)

"Congratulations to the Indiana Pacers for their 93-88 win over the Detroit Pistons.

As a result, the Pistons' seven-game winning streak was also ended.

However, the Pistons are still the No. [-] team in the Eastern Conference, and the Pacers are the second in the Eastern Conference. "

"I have to say that Huo Song's condition today is worse than before.

全场四节比赛时间都有场上，最终27投13中，三分5投2中，罚球8投5中，只拿下33分11篮板4助攻2盖帽的数据。

If it is other inside players, this data is already quite good.

But on Huo Song, his performance was indeed a bit poor. "

"That's right, although this week Huo Song's scoring average is still around 40 points per game.

But because of poor form today and lost the game, I am afraid that this week's player of the week is out of the question.

But then again, the competition in November is coming to an end, even if Huo Song maintains his current state.

There is no doubt that Huo Song is still the only candidate for the Eastern Conference Player of the Month. "

Led by Huo Song who averaged 40+10 per game, the Pistons won seven consecutive victories.

Unexpectedly, they met the Pacers who were second in the Eastern Conference and good at defense. In the end, Huo Song's performance was also mediocre, and the team suffered its first defeat of the new season.

Before this defeat, Huo Song had won two consecutive Eastern Conference Player of the Week awards.

Because of today's home defeat, Huo Song missed the opportunity to be the best player of the week for three consecutive weeks.

However, the league generally does not award player of the week honors to the same player three times in a row.

Even if the player's personal data and team record are very good, they are basically given one every other week.

Huo Song won the player of the week consecutively because of his consecutive 40+10 and the Pistons' winning streak at the start.

It's nothing to lose a regular season game today. In fact, it can be said to be a wake-up call to the management.

If the other core members of the team don't recover, it will definitely not work to rely on Huo Song alone to contribute on the offensive end.

It is impossible for Huo Song to be in such a good state all the time. Just like today, Huo Song did not continue to be superb, and the team's overall score was limited by the strong defensive team.

what's the result?The result is a loss!

With Rasheed Wallace, Billups, Hamilton and others unable to provide much help to Huo Song on the offensive end, Huo Song was defended to death by the inside line, and the effect of playing was not as good as before. outstanding.

So, no matter how strong Huo Song is, he is still somewhat strong.

Sometimes a helper is needed, and an outside line can help open up the space.

Can play simple ball, who would not want to play like this?
Huo Song also hopes to have suitable teammates to help him and help him share the pressure.

In this way, he can compete for the scoring champion and MVP while taking into account his record.

In fact, it’s okay. As the regular season progressed, Billups and Hamilton were still training hard in order to hit the All-Star again, and slowly regained their status.

For the rest of November, the Pistons performed well overall.

New Army Bobcats home and away, the Pistons are easy to handle.

After playing the Cavaliers, Rasheed Wallace also suddenly came to the point. The Cavaliers who bullied the big Z and got injured, and no one was on the inside, hit 20+10 data for the first time this season.

Immediately afterwards, Huo Song met his good brother Wade again.

Although the Heat have O'Neal, the start of the season is quite good, second only to the Pistons and Pacers, ranking third in the Eastern Conference.

But facing the Pistons' inside configuration, O'Neal really couldn't bear to walk around.

The Pistons restricted O'Neal, and Wade was not as comfortable as breaking through. The team was limited to 80 points. In the end, Huo Song led the team to victory with 38 points and 8 rebounds.

Immediately after back-to-back, the Pistons defeated the Bucks, which had a bad start, by 4 points.

Wait until November 11 to play against Mosaic again.

As a guest in the Western Conference, the Pistons defeated Mosaic 92 to 70.

Because Yao Ming recovered from his injury, he performed well this time and scored 19 points.

McGrady is playing harder and harder, and there is no sign of scoring champion last season.

At this time, many Mosaic fans have already called out that they have been fooled, and the Magic traded a data brush to them.

It is worth mentioning that Tyronn Lue, Mosaic's starting point guard in this game, was also an undercover agent. He took 5 shots in the game, but only had 1 rebound and 1 assist.

The stars traded by Mosaic are parallel imports, and the rotation players traded are also garbage.

But to be honest, if the boss is unwilling to spend money, it is naturally unlikely to produce results.

Without further ado, the Pistons finished November with a 13-1 record.

Huo Song also won the Eastern Conference Player of the Month in November for averaging 40.7 points, 10.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game.

Not only that, Huo Song's outstanding data, and the team's first record in the Eastern Conference, Huo Song leads the new season's regular season MVP list.

There is no doubt that Huo Song, who is only in his second year as a rookie, has already entered the honor harvesting period.

However, Huo Song had just become the best player of the month in the East, and the team's lack of record was blocked by the Spurs.

In the Western Conference trip, after the Pistons defeated Mosaic, they faced the Spurs immediately.

In order to solve the Lakers and O'Neal, the Spurs' inside configuration is also quite good.

Not to mention Duncan, the cornerstone of the team, there are also many well-equipped blue-collar players.

The Spurs also play defensive basketball these years. The Pistons lack Larry Brown's discipline, and the overall defensive quality has declined, but the Spurs' defense is getting tighter and tighter.

In the end, Huo Song was somewhat restricted, and his other scoring points were not very good, so he could only suffer the second defeat of the season.

Fortunately, after the Hornets and Mavericks, the Pistons can still handle it.

The Hornets were played back-to-back, but they still relied on Huo Song's insiders to overwhelm the river and gain a huge advantage to open up the situation and determine the victory.

Playing against the Mavericks was even more effective for the three armies. The team scored 108 points and returned with a big victory.

At the end of the four-game streak in the Western Conference, Huo Song lost a game because of the team's record and failed to win the honor of the best player of the week again.

But after returning to the East, this honor was quickly continued.

The Raptors, Eagles, and Grizzlies, even with back-to-back games, the Pistons still have a winning streak.

Because of the recovery of Hamilton and Billups, and the need to strive to become an All-Star, Huo Song's possession of the ball has slightly declined, and the data has also declined.

The previous 40+10 has become 35+10.

But I still have to say that such data is scary enough.

As long as the team's record is okay, Huo Song is undoubtedly the best candidate for the Eastern Conference Player of the Week.

For the next two weeks, the Pistons will play relatively few games.

The Knicks, Cavaliers, and Trail Blazers in the first week all won without breaking a sweat.

Huo Song also dropped to 30+8 because he often clocked in three quarters.

But in the second week against the Bulls and Pacers, Huo Song played all four quarters.

Against the Twin Towers of the Bulls, Huo Song played very vigorously, beating Eddie Curry and Tyson Chandler at a loss.

Huo Song scored 47 points and 12 rebounds, and his state was fierce.

Playing the Pacers is somewhat restricted, but the entire Pistons team has the idea of ​​​​revenge the Pacers.

In the end, Huo Song led the team to victory with 32 points and 11 rebounds.

Before you know it, there's only one week left in December.

The Pistons won 12 consecutive victories after defeating the Nets and Wizards one after another, but at the critical moment, they encountered a head-on blow from the Heat.

The Heat were a little unconvinced when they lost to the Pistons before. The third team in the East can more or less meet the No. [-] team in the East.

O'Neal held his breath and played Huo Song. This time Huo Song's performance was suppressed, and he only scored 27 points and 9 rebounds in the game.

O'Neal scored 35 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks, suppressing Huo Song and Double Wallace.

It can only be said that ginger is still old and spicy.

Huo Song just thought that the league had entered his era. Who would have thought that O'Neill would suddenly stop talking about football ethics and suddenly attack him in a wave.

In this way, the Pistons' record in December failed to end perfectly. Instead, they were beaten violently by the two strong teams of the Spurs and the Heat.

The time has officially entered 2005, and voting for the All-Stars has entered a fever pitch.

The state of Billups and Hamilton has obvious ups and downs, and the need for the ball is also different from usual.

Rasheed Wallace suddenly became salty after being beaten by O'Neal, and he didn't know that he wanted to cooperate.

Recently, he didn't talk much in the locker room, and he seemed to be well-behaved, but indifferent.

In the first week of January, the Pistons had just beaten the Celtics and Bulls before losing to the rising Grizzlies.

It was a bit of a surprise to lose to the Grizzlies, but looking carefully at the configuration of the Grizzlies, it can only be said that they were just restrained.

These days the Grizzlies dominate the front line, Michael Miller, Sean Battier, Stromile Swift, James Posey, a group of front line players who average 10+ points per game and defend.

Today's Grizzlies can use a mobile, continuous striker group to strangle the inside.

Huo Song is also restricted because of this. Even if he actively supports the high position and picks and rolls on the sideline, sometimes he will be switched and double-teamed and unable to rush into the inside.

Once he can only be forced to shoot from the mid-range or directly outside the three-point line, Huo Song's overall shooting rate will naturally decline.

In addition, the Grizzlies are not weak inside.

Pau Gasol is growing up day by day, gradually being able to stand on his own.

At the same time, Lorenzen White, the No. 96 pick in the first round of the [-] Golden Generation, played center.

Lorenzen White's physical condition is good, but his offensive skills are relatively rough, and he can only develop into a blue-collar center in the end, but his defense is indeed good.

When I was with Pau Gasol, I did a lot of dirty work in the paint.

Although the reputation of other high-ranking players in the 96 golden generation is not obvious, but it is not bad to be able to play until now.

It is worth mentioning that Lorenzen White is similar to Big Ben, usually taciturn and strict with his wife at home.

If Huo Song remembers correctly, he is the first player in NBA history to be tricked and shot by his ex-wife.

Closer to home, after losing to the Grizzlies, the Pistons also summed up some lessons.

But after all, it is divided into east and west divisions. In a few years, the Grizzlies will not be able to threaten the Pistons, so don't worry too much.

After playing the Grizzlies, the Pistons quickly found their way back to the Celtics, Nets, Hornets, and Magic.

I never expected that the next 75 players would meet Iverson, who suddenly exploded.

Although there is no NO-Handcheck rule yet, Iverson is definitely a point that the Pistons need to guard against.

That is to say, the 75ers have been in decline for the past two years, and the head player Iverson is always injured.

Otherwise, the Pistons will have a headache or two before reaching the finals.

But in the regular season, they will meet anyway.

Although Iverson is short, he is really strong.

Facing the Pistons' championship-level defense, Iverson said that he can ignore it if he ignores it.

Billups was blown away by Iverson, and Iverson himself was in excellent form, constantly challenging Big Ben and Huo Song inside.

Huo Song thinks that many balls are well defended, but Iverson can pull the bar at the basket and lay up with a backhand.

A lot of balls bounced more than once on the rim, but they just bounced in.

In addition, Iverson also has a lot of whistles.

The referee basically gave all the balls that were two plus one.

After one game, Iverson got more free throws than Huo Song, an inside player.

Although this is a product of Iverson's style of play, it still has a lot of influence on Huo Song.

For the first time this season, Huo Song encountered the crisis of facing 6 fouls, and he didn't dare to defend in the fourth quarter.

However, the 75 people won the Pistons under the leadership of Iverson, but the Pistons don't need to take this seriously.

The 75ers have a poor record. Even after defeating the Pistons, the record still failed to achieve more than half of the winning percentage.

As long as it continues like this, the 75ers will not be able to enter the playoffs, and Iverson will not be a big threat to the Pistons due to the characteristics of the Pistons' ability to hit critical strikes.

After passing the 75 people, the Pistons started the winning streak again.

Until the back-to-back games against the Bulls on January 1, the team was inaccurate on the perimeter. Huo Song's fatigue value almost reached the critical value due to two and a half consecutive months of fighting, back-to-back and poor physical strength, and failed to give the team more help.

In the end, Huo Song scored 22 points. Only Billups scored in double figures in the team. There were not more people who could stand up, so it was a pity to lose to a tank team like the Bulls.

After losing a game that should not have been lost, the Pistons realized their shame and acted bravely. Before the All-Star Weekend, they gradually adjusted to an excellent competitive state.

Against a strong Western Conference team like the Timberwolves, the Pistons still easily won.

He was also merciless against the Nuggets.

Immediately after the Pacers played back-to-back on January 1, the Pistons also won by 27 points, a thrilling victory.

In the end, it was the Knicks, 105 to 61, who beat the Knicks to shame.

The four-game winning streak at the end of January allowed the Pistons to regroup and continue to lead the Eastern Conference, becoming one of the best teams in the league.

It is also because the Pistons have a stable record and Huo Song's statistics in all aspects are also quite good. Huo Song won the honor of the Eastern Conference Player of the Month for the second time this season.

However, at this time of celebration, the Pistons and the Knicks suddenly completed a deal.

Knowing that Joe Dumars traded Billups and Rasheed Wallace for Stephon Marbury from the Knicks, the Huosong people were stupid.

"Marbury is good at playing hometown basketball. Why did you ask him to come here? Westbrook also likes playing hometown basketball. How did it turn out?"

Joe Dumas talked to Huo Song before, and asked Huo Song what work the team needs to do in terms of reinforcement.

Huo Song wanted to play more comfortably for himself, so he proposed to trade a guard with strong breakthrough ability, who could rush to the inside with the ball to feed him cakes and hit some easy balls.

But Huo Song didn't ask Joe Dumars to trade Billups!
Trading Rasheed Wallace, Huo Song said no problem, his offense and defense, Huo Song can make up for it.

In fact, judging from the data, in the last two seasons, Rasheed Wallace's star status has begun to decline.

The Pistons can only provide Rasheed Wallace with a position as a backup insider, and it is too extravagant to spend a maximum salary to support a backup insider.

Huo Song is definitely in favor of trading Rasheed Wallace.

But Billups is still very important. In the playoffs last year, Billups obviously evolved.

If you study carefully, you can find that after the All-Star break last season, Billups is more pragmatic and knows how to play the game.

It is true that Marbury has better physical fitness than Billups, is a two-time All-Star, and has better scoring and assist statistics, but Billups is obviously more suitable for the current Pistons.

From Huo Song's point of view, the Pistons would suffer a loss if Billups traded for Marbury alone, let alone half-selling and half-giving a Rasheed Wallace.

But why did Joe Dumars trade with the Knicks?
Just because the Knicks general manager is Isiah Thomas now?

You can't just send warmth just because you are a good friend, right?The defending champion of the Pistons is gone?

Huo Song is in a depressed mood now, just like Adu wanted Curry, but the general manager of the Nets traded Seth Curry.

There are so many outside players in the league who can break through, Kobe is also very good at passing the ball under the basket!Why didn't Joe Dumars get Kobe over for him?
As a result, a lone wolf came over.
