199. The crucial battle!_3

Watching Zhang Yang pull in for a defensive rebound off the baseline with the help of a screen from Millsap, Hamilton shook his hand slightly and retreated on defense.

His touch wasn't great tonight; his shots were terribly off.

But that wasn't the worst of it... sure enough!

As Hamilton fell back inside the three-point line, he turned his head to see Zhang Yang advancing towards him.

Felton continued to the left corner, Millsap was ready for a wing screen, Okafor in position down low, and Gerald Wallace prepared for a backdoor cut...

The Pistons' defense was pressed low, with only Hamilton above the free-throw line.

Zhang Yang continued his isolation play, the same old tactic, driving to the foul line and actively seeking contact.

This time Hamilton chose to step up, leaving the back to his teammates.

As Zhang Yang confronted Hamilton, he turned, pulled the ball with his left hand, and wound around Hamilton, continuing his drive!
