Losing game 3, the Celtics lost the home advantage that they finally snatched from the Pacers.

Larry Brown just said: "It's my negligence to let Arthur perform like this."

Ben Wallace said little harshly: "He will not perform like this again, never again!"

The collision of emotions put both teams in the desire to win the fourth game.

In the fourth game, the Pistons played everything a strong defensive team should show.

Amazing oppressiveness, continuous frontcourt confrontation, no room for defense, suffocating home atmosphere, and the help of the referees and the support of the fans.

The first four items are their characteristics all along, while the last two items are particularly prominent unexpected factors tonight.

The referee relaxed the scale, allowing the Pistons to force the Pacers to score only 69 points in the game with their favorite (the league hates the most).

We just need to know that David Stern, a hypocritical sissy, does not even allow players to wear No. 69 jerseys, so how can he accept a game representing the highest level of the NBA division and play a single game of 69 points?

What an ugly game that would be?

Ben Wallace did what he said, and he said Xie Hou would not perform like that again.

"That kind of performance" refers to Xie Hou's performance averaged 3097 in the first three games.

That night, Xie Hou's breakthrough was not as active as in the third game. He killed the Pistons with a mid-range shot in the third game, which made him feel that his shot really reached Bird's level.

He increased the output of the emergency stop jump shot, but achieved little effect.

Because the pressure given by the piston is strong enough, the body is frequently and barbaric, the defensive end forces him to take a difficult shot every round.

The Pistons are the kind of team that can completely prevent the star swinger who uses jump shots as a conventional method.

Xie Hou did not realize this until the third quarter. Unfortunately, he had no rhythm at that time. He wanted to break through in the fourth quarter, but his physical strength was unsustainable.

The Pacers' team scored 69 points, and Xie Hou only scored 14 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists.

This is the worst game he has ever played in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Xie Hou was prevented from being killed by the Pistons, which was the main reason for the Pacers' loss, and there were several secondary factors.

One of them is that Artest had a conflict with the front-row fan on the spot and was expelled by the referee on the spot; O'Neal Jr. was constipated in offense (he became used to it when he was too constipated), and was in a foul crisis and was replaced too early, causing the team to lose its barrier.

The crushing defeat of a strong team is always caused by several reasons.

"I said, he won't play like that again." Wallace's words were a little tougher. "I can't wait to go away. I really hope to start playing the fifth game tonight!"

Xie Hou, who performed poorly tonight, was still present at the press conference.

Claire said a bad game would not affect how people think of him.

A bad game won't be, a failed series will be.

Few rookies can have a starting point for their career like Xie Hou. He should be proud of himself. At this moment, he does not intend to say a few words modestly to win sympathy for himself, and he does not want to say anything to compliment his opponent to strengthen the reputation of the Pistons.

When the Pistons media arrogantly told Wallace's original words and asked him to make comments, he smiled.

Xie Hou's smile is like a magician, which is iconic. If he stops smiling one day, it means he is really unhappy.

His smile is always warm and innocent, except tonight. Tonight's smile is not only not warm, but also cold and a little arrogant: "Of course I hope the fifth game will start tonight, because he knows that if I let me rest for two days, my condition will not be as bad as tonight, and he is afraid of me."

One word stirs up a thousand waves.

Xie Hou was immediately ridiculed by the Pistons media, but these people would not say it out on the spot.

Their mockery will appear in the newspaper the next day.

It doesn’t matter what they say. The influence of the Detroit media is just like that of Indianapolis, and they are media that can only entertain themselves.

The public opinion they can influence is the public opinion in Detroit.

Xie Hou doesn't care how much he influences the public opinion in Detroit. He can't expect the rude Pistons fans to turn against him, right?

The confrontation in front of the media is just a pleasure in words. If you really feel at ease, you have to win the game.

Although the game between the Pacers and Pistons is not good, the confrontation on the media is too sharp and has completely surpassed the scope of sports, creating a kind of atmosphere of opposition in the 1980s.

This is what the league is happy to see.

Stern probably forgives the Pistons for guarding the Pacers to only score 69 points tonight.

The league will not only not intervene in this matter, but will also indirectly use all media power to expand the grudges between the two teams, and some are not.

There are actually not so many feuds between the Pistons and the Pacers.

The last time the two teams entered their peak period, they happened to be staggering each other and had no chance to make enemies.

Then we can only choose ready-made things.

To the Pacers fans, it is said that the Pistons fans are vulgar (facts), and the away entertainment is not good (absolute fact), and they will only rely on the referee (partial facts), and are rude to King Arthur (iron facts).

It's easier to deal with the Pistons fans. It's only been a few hours since Artest and the front-row fans had a conflict. Xie Hou said Wallace was afraid that he would have all kinds of videos and audios to prove it, so he didn't make any arguments.

The league made efforts behind the scenes, and immediately exaggerated two oppositional emotions, and brought in some passers-by who were indifferent to the game.

This is what they want to see. Even if the fans are verbal battles are broken through, there is no outsider concerned about them. Only by attracting these people to join in the fun will the attention rise sharply.

With the efforts of multiple parties, two days later, at the Banker Life Stadium, Bobby Leonard said: "According to real-time data, there are now about 8 million American families paying attention to this game. This is the most popular Eastern Conference playoffs since Michael Jordan retired."

What McGuinness thought was that so many people watched it, it would be better to have enough viewing tonight's game.

Before the game, Xie Hou and others were squirting trash talks with their opponents.

He doesn't like to swear, this time the other party opened his mouth first and he fought back later.

Usually he is the only one who criticizes others, but this time someone criticizes him first. He fights back with confidence, making both sides' emotions reach a boiling point.

Before the game started, they had already accumulated anger value to kill the other party.

Tonight, Anthony entered the Pistons' starting list, replacing Hamilton.

"The risk of letting rookies replace the All-Stars as the starter is quite high."

"It seems that Coach Brown also realized that blind defense can't win. The Pistons' defense is unmatched, but their offense can never keep up with the intensity of the defense."

Only Brown himself knows what he is thinking.

He didn't want to pay attention to the on-site commentary and directed the competition wholeheartedly. That was his job.

Xie Hou nodded gently to Anthony. Although the two teams were so scarlet that their eyes were red and they didn't like each other, his friendship with Anthony had no effect.

Jumping the ball at the opening game, O'Neal Jr. has been disappointing since the opening tonight.

He violated the rules when he jumped the ball, and the ball rights were directly awarded to the Pistons.

"Jermaine O'Neal, who averaged 20 points and 9 rebounds per game in the regular season, averaged 11 points and 7 rebounds per game in the first four games of the Eastern Conference Finals. He never disappointed everyone in the playoffs." Leonard said regretfully, "Every time!"

Billups was about to stop a round of attack, but Xie Hou suddenly pressed and asked him to protect the ball with his back to ensure the ball was safe.

"It seems that two days of rest won't make you angry that night!"

Billups wanted to interfere with trash words, but Xie Hou tried his best to defend, which was to force him to make a mistake.

Bilups is not an inexperienced rash man. He has enough core strength to withstand Xie Hou's pressure (related to Xie Hou's lack of strength).

Anthony stepped forward to receive the ball, and Artest's defense also put him in a difficult dilemma.

Home teams always work harder on the defensive end, which is the same as any sport with physical confrontation.

As long as the public relations are normal, the league does not make things difficult, and does not provoke anyone who should not be provoked, the referee will not inexplicably watch the home team unhappy every night, and the teams sitting at home will receive preferential treatment. The most direct reflection of this preferential treatment is that the hardness of the defensive end has increased significantly.

There is a clear gap in the hardness of the home team and the away team in defense, because if the away team defends freely, the referee will never allow it.

It is not ruled out that a few teams in the home court, such as away games, and away games are cheating on the crematorium. These teams should ask themselves why it is you who is wrong, not the world?

The Pistons were so defensive that Wallace had to single O'Neal Jr.

Xiao Ao's defensive skill trees have been clicked on assisted defense, but this cannot prove that his single defense is a waste. His single defense is just a failure, and Wallace's singles skills are difficult to find even worse than him in the league several times.

The strange Wallace Five (the word is right) appeared. Before Xiao O's block, the bottom line referee first blew away the step and violated the rules.

Even if the rules are not violated, the ball will be blocked.

The Pacers played like the Pistons of the previous game tonight.

They are all typical examples of being bold and willing to defend themselves at home. Only in this way can they maximize their home advantage.

“Admirable.”

Larry Brown looked at the Pacers' defense in a daze.

"Merlo!"

He shouted.

Anthony looked over with fear, and Brown's orders were always difficult.

The head coach pointed at Xie Hou and said, "I don't expect you to defend him, use your figure, and do your best. Within a minute, I will see Arthur sweating!"

Xie Hou thought the Pacers would also let Prince defend him.

Because Anthony played in the second position, he did this to avoid the two of them playing against each other. Anthony's defense is too bad compared to the starting lineup and cannot bear the burden of defending him.

Anthony came to Xie Hou and took the initiative to defend, and he also defended with super violent close-fitting defense.

Direct contact occurs in 85% of their bodies.

Such contact lasted for five seconds, the sideline referee whistled and Anthony made a defensive foul.

He raised his hand without changing his face, not caring about the foul number at all.

Xie Hou held the ball and looked at the Pistons' head coach in confusion.

Brown's face was solemn.

What is this routine? When competing with the Pistons, their methods of dealing with Xie Hou will change every night.

Anthony, a powerful player who should be used to score, is now used as a foul to consume him? Should he be so luxurious?
