Chapter 788 Rocket Buster III

After half a quarter of the game, Yang Di came on the stage.

The Rockets are strong, especially after having Artest. The defensive combination of Artest and Battier on the bench can almost lock up more than half of the forwards and guards who claim to have outstanding scoring ability in the league.

Fortunately, the Warriors' scoring ability on the wing has not been very strong. The Monta Ellis they rely on is actually a combo guard and even spends more time playing point guard.

Yang Di's appearance means that both sides must have replaced the main force. Yang Di's playing time this season is only 35 minutes, which is the same as the Rockets' Tracy McGrady and far lower than the Iron Man's Artest.

After Artest came to the Rockets, his playing time was "significantly" reduced, from an average of 38 minutes and 39 minutes per game to an average of about 36 minutes per game.

Van Gundy still relies on and loves this player very much. He can defend and attack, is not afraid of confrontation, and brings the toughness that the Rockets need most.

"Increase passing, increase the speed of rotation, and increase some outside shots appropriately."

Montgomery gave some advice and told the main point guard Baron Davis.

At this time, the Warriors are mainly playing double guards, Grant Hill is at the small forward position, and Yang Di and Biedrins are still inside.

The lineup of the Warriors is very fast. Baron Davis and Monta Ellis take turns to attack the Rockets' inside line and are very aggressive.

At halftime, the Warriors led the Rockets by 57 points 50 to 7.

At halftime, the Rockets held an emergency meeting.

When Van Gundy was not on the court, he had a clear mind and his brain was running quickly. He said to the Rockets players: "I still hope that everyone will play our own characteristics. The Warriors are constantly speeding up. This problem we had in the Western Conference last year I have encountered it in the finals. When the Warriors speed up to a very high level, if we follow their rhythm, the game will not be far away. No matter how fast the speed is, he still needs a The offense in the round is just to get 2 points and 3 points, but if the rhythm is messed up, two waves of people may widen the gap."

"The purpose of our slowing down is to play the positional warfare we need. The Warriors are good players in offensive and defensive transitions. I have to admit that they have better talent and combat power than us in transitioning offenses."

Yang Di scored only 9 points in the halftime, and the highest scorer was Baron Davis. He scored 17 points in the halftime, and he was in a hot state.

After a 15-minute break, the second half began.

Yang Di felt that Byron was in a good state today, so he naturally reduced his role in attacking with the ball. It was obviously a Chinese derby, but he was more willing to see his teammates perform.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Byron suddenly scored to Yang Di, and Yang Di hit a goal from mid-range and scored in double figures.

At this time, the Warriors were 59 to 50, and the point difference of the whole game was widened to the maximum.

Yao Ming changed hands and missed the hook. Yang Di dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to Baron Davis to break through. Baron Davis swung away Alstom with a change of direction. Ray Allen, Ray Allen missed a three-pointer and the rebound was protected by Yao Ming.

The Rockets attacked and McGrady missed a jumper.

Yang Di rebounded, then Ariza missed a layup and Yao Ming rebounded.

As Van Gundy said, the Rockets played steadily and advanced slowly. When they reached the frontcourt, Yao Ming picked and rolled, and Yao Ming, who was running down, received the ball from McGrady.

Yang Di came over to double-team, and Yao Ming shot a mid-range jumper directly in front of Yang Di.

After making a decisive shot, the hit rate seems to have increased, a direct hit!

"It actually entered?"

Yang Di turned his head and looked. His shot was a completely judged defense. It should have interfered a lot with Yao Ming's shooting. As a result, Yao Ming still hit the shot steadily. Being tall does have many obvious advantages.

52:59.

After two rounds, Yang Di attacked Scola in a low position. The Rockets double-teamed a little slower, and Yang Di directly scored the ball with a half-throwing posture under the basket.

61 to 52, the scoring rate of each round of the two sides is not very high, but the score is slowly rising.

McGrady's mid-range jumper, Artest's mid-range jumper, and the Rockets' retro scoring methods are still desirable in this era.

The Warriors are a bit different, but after all, they have already won two championships, which also proves the value of small balls, and their style of play is more sought after by fans.

After Ray Allen's three-pointer, the Warriors took the lead to reach 70 points.

In the second half of the third quarter, Baron Davis continued his unsolvable performance. Not only did he hit a three-pointer from the outside, assist his teammates to score, but also frequently hit the Rockets' inside line, causing Scola, Artest , Yao Ming and others fouled respectively, and Alstom received his fourth foul just after halfway through the third quarter and was forced to end the game.

Hyde, who was replaced, was even worse, not as good as Artest.

The Rockets' No. 1 position was weak, and Byron made 10 free throws in this quarter, all of which were hit. He scored 31 points in three quarters, showing a very hot performance.

"This "bearded" Baron Davis is simply the Rockets' nemesis!"

Cai Nan exclaimed, using an extremely exaggerated tone: "Byron Davis has scored 31 points, my God, the Rockets' No. 1 defense is useless. In front of the attack, Baron Davis was weak and not decent. Baron Davis also sent 11 assists and completed a 3+30 data in only 10 quarters. This year, Baron Davis was selected into the All-Star Game , there is a reason."

"The record of the Warriors is also a key factor. After these three people get together, the record is much better than expected. Now they are 3 wins higher than the Celtics. If there is no accident, this season's record ranking is No. 1 is the Warriors, and during the All-Star selection, the coaches also pay more attention to this point."

Among the highlights of the stadium at the end of the third quarter, most of the clips were shot by Baron Davis.

Byron has indeed become the most eye-catching player on the field today, directly stealing the limelight in the Chinese Derby, which is unexpected but understandable.

"Rocket buster."

Yang Di smiled and chatted with Ray Allen on the bench. The two of them took a rest, and Byron, who was in excellent form, led the team on the field, and Monta Ellis had a lot less possession of the ball.

"Byron's strongest point lies in his breakthrough, which is simply a historic breakthrough, and now he has less breakthroughs and more confrontations. Compared with before, the loss is less, but the effect is greater." Ray Allen said analytically , He was also a good breakthrough player when he was young, but now he is not as good as before. It is just that he has degenerated too much in the past two years in the Warriors. Only the catch jump shot and various jump shot skills are still there, and they can be used frequently.

"Breakthrough is not for surpassing others, but for killing the opponent better. If the breakthrough can cause the opponent to foul, that is the most ideal state."
