George Carl was worried that the Celtics' high-confrontational style would hurt Garlinari, and the decision he used at the last moment was proven to be correct.

Garlinari's touch was not good in this game, and Farid was obviously more suitable for the other party's rhythm.

He helped Xiang Chu dominate the rebounds at the last moment of the game, making the Celtics have no temper.

The Nuggets won back-to-back, which also made those teams with the idea understand that it really depends on luck to win the Nuggets.

Now at most, the Warriors can beat the game, but other teams really dare not say much.

The Nuggets are not easy now, so they have to play away games after a day of rest.

On February 5, they came to Detroit.

The Pistons are still in a half-dead state this season. As a young team, they have always wanted to give the team a good defender.

Drummond and Monroe both look full of talent. Although Monroe had a contract renewal problem in the summer, their team shouldn't have been so bad.

Trading to Ty Lawson now doesn't seem to be a worthy choice.

Tai Lawson's strength has declined again this season, and the Pistons' patience with him is almost over.

Now this guy doesn't feel anything when he meets the Nuggets. This Nuggets are completely different from the team he has been with.

The Pistons have quite a lot of inside lines. In addition to the two starting players, there are two meat shields on the bench and one that can be pulled out to shoot. However, the two meat shields are a bit short, so it is definitely not easy to hit Xiang Chu.

The Pistons played very well in the first quarter, and Monroe had a better advantage in the number four position.

Now it is not as easy to play on the Nuggets' outside line as the number four position. The Nuggets' overall defense is still good, unless the outside line is someone who can hold the ball and shoot particularly.

Monroe played well and the Nuggets were not panicked, they just kept consuming it.

If necessary, they can go to the double towers, but the first half is just a test stage.

In the regular season, players of the Nuggets level have no need to fight desperately.

So sometimes when teams that have played in the regular season will find that their opponents are completely different when they meet in the playoffs, it is because some teams still have the purpose of training in the regular season, unlike the playoffs, which is entirely for winning.

Only teams with capital can do this, and only a few strong teams in the league have this qualification.

In addition, the Nuggets did not score much outside the three-point line, so the Nuggets were not so worried.

Both teams are both strong and the others are relatively mediocre.

The Nuggets must be Xiang Chu, both inside players score points, and the scores of both sides are not rising quickly.

In this case, to grasp the situation, you must seize an opportunity and the Nuggets wait silently.

During the rotation period, the two teams also played hard to distinguish. The Nuggets stood up with Meeks and Augustine, but the main ones on both sides were China Investment Corporation, and the overall pace was relatively slow.

The Nuggets can also play fast, but the fast-slow switching is not as skilled as the Spurs. The slow pace is their relatively stable rhythm. If the Pistons play like this, the Nuggets will definitely be with them.

In the first half, Xiang Chu completely suppressed Drummond. Drummond was in the third grade, but his offensive methods did not change much. When he met Xiang Chu, he couldn't eat his body and knelt down.

However, because of Meeks' explosion during the rotation period, the Pistons still took a little lead.

During the halftime break, the Nuggets fine-tuned the defense.

It's mainly Monrona. If his efficiency continues to be maintained, the Nuggets will also go to the double towers.

With Xiang Chu here, sacrificing a little outside attack is not a problem for them at all.

Although the Pistons are leading by the outside line, the Nuggets think their defense is still good. They mainly care about three-pointers. If the opponent continues to shoot in the middle, they will not make much adjustments.

But the defensive attention will still be tilted for a moment, and the role players will be suppressed when they emerge. There are no tough enough methods and no role players can always score. This aspect has always been the field of stars.

Monroe is not the kind of extra tough inside line. After the Nuggets continued to strengthen the confrontation, Monroe was a little unable to hold on. He also caused two kills, but both made two free throws.

The Nuggets quickly overtook the score, and the Pistons did not react slowly, so they immediately focused their offense on the outside.

Sophomore Pope played well, but the Pistons still couldn't keep up with the Nuggets' pace until Augustine on the bench showed his power.

The Nuggets stared at Meeks this time, but they didn't expect that another substitute defender of the opponent would show their strength.

Augustine made two consecutive three-pointers to help the Pistons stabilize the situation, making them feel that they still have a chance to win the Nuggets.

Any team is interested in winning the championship team. Even if it is a bad team, it will fight with the Nuggets seriously in order to train rookies. Not to mention that the Pistons are not a bad team.

However, the Pistons' explosion was also temporary. After the Nuggets' defensive attention was over, the situation returned to normal.

So at the beginning of the final quarter, the Nuggets once again took the initiative on the field.

At this time, the Pistons' head coach Stan Van Gundy was very confused. What kind of decisive lineup should be used in the last moment?

Drummond's defense is better, but he was completely suppressed by Xiang Chu. Not only was he unable to score, but he couldn't even grab a few rebounds. He could no longer see any effect on the court.

But if he doesn't need to defend Xiang Chu, can the Pistons' defense support it?

In the end, it was the Nuggets who helped them make their choice.

After Xiang Chu came on the court, he and Garlinari scored 10 points. As the score was about to be completely opened, Van Gundy chose a big and four small attack lineup, with Monroe taking the inside.

But this lineup did not help them chase points. Mix and Caron Butler's shots outside the three-point line all missed, but the Nuggets hit a three-pointer again.

As time entered the last minute, the Nuggets' lead reached double digits, and the Pistons also felt that the trend was hopeless.

They still chose to struggle and performed two foul tactics. After Knight sent all the balls into it, the Nuggets calmly won the game.

The Pistons won all three away games, but the Warriors lost to the Hawks during the Eastern Expedition. The difference between the two sides' victory was only half. Xiang Chu could not wait to meet the Warriors again.

In this form, they and the Warriors may be in the top two in the Western Conference. If the Warriors have this combat power in the playoffs, they will eventually encounter it.

The next game is treated as a playoff preview.

When she returned to Denver, Xiang Chu was about to stare at Olivia again.

Olivia is already planning to travel to New York, and the All-Star Weekend is getting closer and closer.

This guy's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and Xiang Chu's plan is to let her stay at home honestly.

So he saw the wonders.

"No, no, I don't want it..." Are you afraid of big belly rolling on the sofa?
