What made Xie Hou difficult for a moment was the sudden increase in the piston.

After playing several games during the regular season, Xie Hou thought he had a full understanding of the Pistons. After playing tonight, he got to know the team again.

They put pressure on the ball holder. After the peripheral defense line is lost, the linkage between others, strong enemies on the defensive end and confrontation, even players who are not good at defending can find their position under the Pistons system.

A player like Mike James who doesn't even watch it on other teams, Shehou, has caused quite a lot of trouble for his teammates tonight with his confrontation.

The excellence on the defensive end also shows the value of his offensive end and both internal and external cultivation.

Mike Zhan is outstanding, and Collis Williamson is also a surprise.

Xie Hou walked while thinking about countermeasures.

The intensity of confrontation in Europe is no less than that of the NBA. There are not many NBA teams there that can compare with the tactical discipline. Since joint defense is allowed under the fiba rules (NBA has just begun to allow teams to play joint defense), the Europeans' use of joint defense has become very mature, and they especially like to use joint defense against Xie Hou.

The core concept of the piston's defense is still the NBA's human-to-people implementation since ancient times, but its outstanding talent and machine-like interconnection make them so special.

Xie Hou just told reporters that what limits him to this point is physical fitness.

This is a heartless saying, he really thinks it is the physical strength that makes them beaten tonight.

He did not blame Artest, who had been playing emotional balls, nor did he ask O'Neal what he was thinking. He only cared about the next game.

Tonight's defeat made them temporarily lose their home advantage.

The second home game is a game that must be won.

Xie Hou entered the locker room. This group of people was more troubled than anyone else. As long as he won the game, he would definitely hear someone singing rap, and he didn't sing well.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the locker room can be completely pasted with a title similar to "The night is quiet here".

This is the dressing room atmosphere that a team with only 63 points in the game should have.

Xie Hou had no mood to speak, so he walked to his closet and smelled the body odor from Kirilenko and the curry smell from Papalucas.

Both of these damn white people inherited the racial genes of white guys with a good body odor.

Especially athletes like them, their sweat glands will be more developed than ordinary people, so when they play the game, the smell will definitely smell to a new level.

"You can't lose a game and even your sense of smell has failed, right?" Xie Hou muttered, "Who borrows these two bastards to use deodorant?"

Artest opened his cabinet and found no deodorant.

Miller said: "I would rather be smothered by them than lose so cowardly."

"Boss, do you know what is more unacceptable than losing so cowardly?" Xie Hou held his breath, "It was because we played such an ugly game and had to endure such a locker room air. I can't stand it anymore!"

The big Slovenian silly man took out the deodorant from his wardrobe.

Because he only sucked it for a few minutes at garbage time tonight, his body odor was covered up well, and Xie Hou remembered that he also had body odor.

If the body odor of European whites from three countries at the locker room was dissipated at the same time, it would probably turn this place into a biochemical battlefield.

O'Neal, little O'Neal, didn't expect Xie Hou to think about this. Now he just wants to take a shower alone and look at his walls and think about his mistakes.

He doesn't want to communicate with people, and doesn't want to explain why he beats so badly, he doesn't want anything.

Using Prezek's deodorant, the locker room was filled with the fragrance of lavender. Xie Hou finally returned to the world. Losing was already sad enough. He hoped that the air he smelled was not fatal.

The locker room returned to peace again.

Xie Hou slowly took off his jersey, was shirtless and sturdy.

"You are so strong, but your upper limbs are very strong." Miller suddenly said.

This is a common issue. He is patronizing weight gain in Moscow, but his strength training is not keeping up. This is a matter of philosophy.

"You are so thin and you must be very powerful. How many points will you get tonight?" Xie Hou was not in the mood to hear Miller now making his already negative emotions even more negative.

Miller tonight had no grains outside the three-point line, and he scored 0 points.

Papalucas did Miller's job, making 3 of 5 shots from the outside, and although not many 9 points, it was already the third highest score in the Pacers tonight.

Claire then walked into the locker room and found that the team members had almost adjusted their mood.

"Arthur, do you mind going to a press conference with me later?" Claire asked.

There are usually two to three people attending press conferences with the head coach, the captain, the core (fixed). If there are other outstanding surprises, you can also let him go together.

Miller was in this way when the game was played, and Xie Hou was not in the mood to deal with the reporter.

Xie Hou also doesn't want to accept interviews from reporters.

But he had no choice. When he walked out of the passage with Claire, he immediately felt that several reporters took a look at his expression that was no different from Luther.

"Arthur, how difficult did you encounter tonight?"

"The difficulty of being ten thousand meters high." Xie Hou thought that words such as very, huge could no longer describe their game tonight.

So he took a different approach and said a puzzling adjective.

"Your total score tonight is a few tens of minutes less than the regular season. How should you adjust the second half?"

“It’s the coach’s job.”

Xie Hou easily turned the blame.

Then Claire took over the press conference, and the Pistons' confidence soared. Per capita "Pacers are not as hard as they imagined", and they opened their mouths and said, "We are ready to make the final."

Even an old guy like Larry Brown said: "We are ready to revive the glory of the Pistons."

"Arthur, did this game tonight give you any inspiration?"

As soon as the press conference ended, Xie Hou and Claire walked into the passage. There was no one else here, so it was their private space.

Xie Hou said as he walked, "The biggest inspiration they gave me is that the progress of the game will never be as simple as we thought."

"Coach, we were too casual before."

Xie Hou was inspired and defeated the Cavaliers and Hornets. The Pacers were too smooth and lost only one game in the two rounds of the series. It was still because Xie Hou was emotional and Artest was unexpectedly absent.

The Eastern Conference Finals opponent Pistons didn't give them much challenges in the regular season.

Before this game started tonight, the whole team thought the ticket to the finals was their pocket.

Many stories have happened in history that are eternal.

Pacers have no capital for pride.

Claire didn't expect Xie Hou to be so touched, which was exactly the opposite of him.

His view is similar to Xie Hou, but he is more optimistic.

The Pacers' defeat is simple and difficult.

O'Neal Jr.'s offense failed when he encountered a defensive team like the Pistons. The one who made the mistake was his defense. Usually, he did not make an attack, but he was very reliable in the defensive end, especially in assisting defense.

If his defense can play normally tonight, Kirirenko would not have suffered a lot of fouls because he participated in too many defenses.

The little Austrian's offense and defense are unexpected things;

As Dpoy of the season, Artest's offense is only icing on the cake in most cases, but as the team's third offensive player, his ball-holding offense can play against most teams.

The Pistons happen to be one of the teams he can't play.

He was provoked by his opponent and started to play the emotional ball. This crazy man who was not very smart would have a lot of consequences if he went crazy, the consequences would be much worse than the emotional Xie Hou.

This is the second unexpected thing;

Then there is the Pistons' defense against Miller.

Miller couldn't get a point, his situation was different from Artesette and O'Neal Jr. Miller's offense was frozen, which was better for the Pistons to defend.

The Pistons' defense was effective, and Miller had no touch, which together created the embarrassment of 0 points in a single game.

This is the third accident;

There are unfortunate accidents and lucky accidents.

Papalucas, who was treated as a quarrel by Claire, has the few sober brains in the team and is becoming more and more adaptable to the NBA's three-point line.

Tonight's three-pointer with 3 of 5 shots was the fourth accident, lucky surprise.

Unfortunately, Papalucas is not a winner. The other three unfortunate accidents all happened to the starter who was entrusted with heavy responsibilities. It is difficult for the Pacers to not lose.

Xie Hou, the rookie who should have the most problems, is the clearest-minded person.

He only had 22 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the game, which made the fans less despair.

It was him who made the fans believe that this kind of defeat tonight would never be the norm.

"Don't worry, this will definitely not be the result next time."

The Pistons have already shown their moves, and Claire won't watch the team suffocate to death by the opponent's iron barrel formation.

The head coach's optimism made Xie Hou feel a little relieved. They returned to the locker room, and most of the people here had left.

There are many people who need to relax and they don't want to stay and listen to Claire's summary.

Claire didn't want to summarize either. There was nothing to summarize in a crushing defeat, but it wasn't a good match.

The best thing that brought about by the crushing defeat was to let Xie Hou re-recognize his opponent, and then, without listening to Claire's longing. He went to take a shower and came out of the shower, and there were not many people left in the locker room.

He hummed a song in the tune and prevented himself from being the last one to leave.
