"It seems..."

Iverson laughed and said, "Wei Guo is going to take over the game."

If there's one person in the league who could make Iverson jealous, it's Wei Guo.

Wei Guo's talent and skills are top-notch, and the key is that he is 2.16 meters tall. He is definitely a chosen one. If the Pistons cannot stop Wei Guo from scoring, they will be in danger!

The Pistons also have weaknesses... They play with great patience on every possession and have many players who are very good at scoring, but they are not a team that excels at offense. Their total score is not very high, and if the Nets can score more than 120 points, it will be difficult for the Pistons to beat the Nets.

Iverson seemed to have figured out Wei Guo's thoughts!

......

Mourning abandoned his defense on Ben Wallace and focused his attention on Anthony!

Young Anthony's playing style is pretty explosive!

If he gets past Jefferson and drives to the basket, Mourning needs to provide immediate help defense!

In general...

The Nets' defense wasn't too passive. Under Wei Guo's instructions, when the Pistons were on offense, Ben Wallace and Rasheed were left unguarded!

Anthony's dunk attempt was blocked by Mourning after a drive to the basket!

Kidds grabbed the basketball, passed it to Weiguo, and quickly ran towards the frontcourt!

In an instant!

Three Nets players had scoring opportunities.

Kiddell ran to the three-point corner, Jefferson cut to the basket, and even Stockton found an open shot!

This is the result of the Nets' relentless running...

Brown's mind raced, unable to predict Wei Guo's next move—whether he would pass the ball or attack himself. Wei Guo dribbled the ball, took a crossover step, and pulled up for a three-pointer!

"Whoosh!!!"

Rashid, who was defending the country, was shot in the face!

This feeling... is awful.

......

Barkley exclaimed excitedly, "He's here! He's here! He's coming with a three-pointer! Wei Guo will definitely lead the team to victory in this game!"

Johnson pursed his lips and didn't reply.

This is the Pistons' home court. Detroit is not a safe city. Barkley is really bold.

......

The fact that both Ben Wallace and Rasheed were left free brought the Pistons' offense to a standstill!

If these two players have the ball and are playing one-on-one...

Mourning will defend under the basket, and Wei Guo will also help defend. As long as these two don't receive the ball under the basket, they can shoot freely!

This 'suicidal' defense caused the Pistons a lot of trouble.

Carmelo Anthony, Richard Hamilton, and Chauncey Billups, three players with scoring ability, were given special attention by the Nets, but they lacked Wei Guo's scoring ability.

Nets on offense!

Wei Guo was double-teamed by Hamilton and Anthony outside the three-point line. He misled the two with a reverse crossover dribble, and then spun through them!

At this time...

A direct shot would only be interfered with by two players. Wei Guo dribbled to the basket, ignoring the double-team of four players in front and behind, and jumped!

All four defenders jumped!

Wei Guo didn't shoot; he had enough hang time in the air. He waited until the four defenders started to fall before he took the shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball swished through the net!

......

"They've gone berserk!"

"No one can stop Wei Guo from scoring."

"I want to apologize to the Nets. After losing Hill and Kenyon, I once thought the Nets wouldn't make it to the Finals."

"As long as Weiguo exists, nothing is impossible!"

"We're leading by 10 points!"

"The Nets will win! The Nets will be the champions!"

......

Those who can be this excited must be the fans watching on TV!

The audience at the venue didn't feel that way...

This is Detroit, the home of the Pistons. This team hasn't won a championship in many years. Older fans remember that when the Pistons won their first championship, their opponent in the Eastern Conference Finals was the Bulls.

That year...

The Detroit Pistons, led by the Bad Boys, defeated the Chicago Bulls, featuring Michael Jordan, 4-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals. They will face the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals.

History always repeats itself!

Their opponent this year is the Nets, whose star player is Wei Guo, arguably the best player in the league, and even... Wei Guo might surpass Jordan to become the greatest of all time. Meanwhile, in the West, the Lakers are dominating the Timberwolves and are very likely to make it to the Finals.

Pistons fans are blindly confident, believing that history will repeat itself.

......

The Pistons' offense stalled, but Brown didn't call a timeout!

This is a dead end...

Unless Ben Wallace and Rasheed can get their offense going, the Pistons' current problems won't be solved. If they're taken out, the Pistons' defense will start to falter.

57:43!!

At halftime, the Pistons trailed by 14 points!

Brown returned to the locker room with a grim face, constantly thinking of countermeasures. Wei Guo was on fire, and two or three people couldn't stop him. If the Pistons wanted to win, they had to open up their offense.

Should we limit the playing time of Ben Wallace and Rashid?

In the first half, one of them went 0-for-5 and the other went 1-for-4, and most of those were open shots. This gave them opportunities, but they couldn't capitalize on them. However, Ben Wallace and Rasheed are the Pistons' key players, and their contributions on the defensive end cannot be ignored.

The problem lies with Wei Guo...

Two or three players were no match for Wei Guo; if the Pistons wanted to win, they would have to compete with the Nets on offense.

If they do that, it seems like they're playing right into the Nets' hands... The Nets came out with the offensive intensity to compete with the Pistons, which shows they came prepared, while the Pistons weren't. If they rashly change their tactics, they might fall into disarray in the second half.

......

Brown wasn't the only one struggling with this.

Iverson and Francis are also in a dilemma, as they have a bet on how many points the Nets can win tonight.

Francis bet on a score of 10 or less.

Iverson was betting on 10-20 points.

At this rate, the Nets might win by more than 20 points, but Iverson and Francis can't change their bet. It's all because Iverson and Wei Guo said something, and Wei Guo said he would participate too. If neither of them guesses correctly, each of them will lose 100,000 US dollars to Wei Guo.

"It seems we've been tricked!"

Francis said, "How could this bet possibly involve Brother Wei?"

"That's right, you can bet against the bookmaker, but you can't bet against the players... that's match-fixing!"

"If the Nets win by more than 20 points!"

Francis said bitterly, "I'm never betting on football again."

"Exactly, if you gamble on football again, I'll be a dog!"

Iverson chimed in with a comment.

Wei Guo is controlling the game. Iverson and Francis are actually betting against Wei Guo. Judging from the situation on the court, it may be difficult for the Nets to win by 30 to 50 points, but how much they win by less than 30 points is up to Wei Guo.

really...

You can't gamble on football!

Francis asked, "Allen, do you know any rooftops in Detroit with good views?"

"Haha..."

Iverson laughed and said, "It's only $100,000, it's not that big of a deal! This isn't a bet on the World Cup finals... Even if we lose, we'll lose to Wei Ge."
