Chapter 296

The Rockets' substitute five, no, the Rockets committed suicide and started a "fierce" battle against the Thunder's substitute led by Durant. In just one and a half quarters, they were suspended three times, and even reached the final 1 At the minute, Adelman even replaced Chandler and others. Naturally, it wasn't because the players played too badly during this period.

It's because Ye Hao's defense is really bad. Maybe he was too focused on his offensive talent at the beginning, so he completely forgot to train Ye Hao on defense. Humiliated all over.

Secondly, because of the inside line, because Ye Hao was transferred to the small forward position, Ariza defending Ibaka inside was completely crushed. Ariza may have no problem defending most of the shooters, but he is as heavy as Ibaka. Ariza, who is a top player in jumping, is really at a disadvantage, he can't stand it at all!
What else can you do if others sit inside, but even so Adelman gave Wu Xiao a chance. He wanted to see if Lowry would get the ball back and start organizing the team to fight back under this situation.

But what is very disappointing is that Lowry may have spent too much time on the court with Harden in the summer. Under this lineup, Lowry did not stand up. Failed, this kind of lineup really can't play without a real team brain.

Adelman gave them 5 minutes, but after 5 minutes passed, the five substitutes completely became the Suicide Squad. The two timeouts did not allow them to get their rhythm back, and the score even dragged on. The bigger it was, the Thunder made a wave of 16:5 attacks.

There was no way around it. In the last minute, when the Thunder called a timeout for substitutions, Adelman had no choice but to change the lineup. In the new lineup, Chandler played as the backbone of the inside line, followed by Scola, Tracy McGrady, It was also put on the court to match Lowry and Ariza.

Relying on the new lineup, the Rockets finally set off a counterattack when Durant was away. The first to show off was McGrady. To be honest, McGrady is also very affectionate to the Rockets now. I couldn't sit still anymore, and scored 6 points in a row.

Successfully reduced the score to less than ten points, and then took the lead in defense to drive the team's defensive system, so that the lineup without Durant and Ibaka couldn't find the rhythm for a while.

Until the end of the first quarter, the Thunder did not expand the score to double digits again.

31:23
This is the effect of McGrady's efforts. If it weren't for physical reasons, maybe McGrady's effect would be greater, but it's okay. After all, it's only the second quarter, and the time is still long, and the Rockets are not too far behind.

In the second quarter, Harden and Xia Tian reappeared. McGrady, who played 1 minute in the first quarter, was also sent up. Although McGrady came to the Rockets for retirement, Adelman still let him play at the request of McGrady. , and then this lineup with Scola and Chandler Rockets can be described as an offensive ability.

For the Thunder's possession, Westbrook and Martin started to lead the team after Durant and Ibaka rested. Disputes broke out.

Westbrook controls the ball, and Harden is the one who defends him. Harden's defensive characteristics have been thoroughly studied by the coaches of each team after playing for a year. Although Harden is in good health and fast, his lateral movement But the speed is very slow.

Facing Harden's defense, all the coaches gave the same answer. Harden can defend from position [-] to position [-] by relying on his physical advantages, but his lateral movement speed is relatively slow, and the probability of successful breakthrough is very high. .

Remembering the coach's instruction, Westbrook also waved to his teammates. This is what Westbrook meant to play singles. After seeing Westbrook's gesture, all the players quickly made room for Westbrook in a 1V1.

However, because the Thunder's backup center, Cole Aldridge, has no mid-range shooting ability, Chandler didn't follow him completely after watching him open up the space. He left a short space to ensure that he could protect in time. basket.

After watching his teammates pull away, Westbrook nodded in satisfaction, and then used his three-axes, no need for a fake breakthrough at all!Because of Westbrook's explosive speed in the first step, he basically doesn't need to change direction when he breaks through.

He flicked the ball slightly, and when Westbrook felt that the ball was completely under his fingertips, he immediately took his first step, like the first step of thunder, Westbrook directly passed Harden to kill Into the internal line.

Harden quickly returned to defense, but Harden's start was too slow and he couldn't catch up with Westbrook at all. In this way, Chandler's eyes lit up. At this time, he should play by himself!
Fortunately, after walking the dog, he was able to protect the basket, and without hesitation, Chandler let go of his defender and rushed to the basket to jump high. Just now, the kid Chandler caught Westbrook, but it was no less Bragging in front of him, so Chandler's idea is also very simple, since I can't catch your hat, then I will give you a big hot pot head office!

But after Chandler took off, he found an extremely embarrassing point, his hand seemed to be missed!Westbrook moved the direction of the dunk slightly when he was dunking, which also made Chandler, who had predicted the position of the block early in the morning, miss it directly.

"Oh!"

33:23
Although Westbrook didn't dunk Hassan, he eventually dunked the inside player of the Rockets. Poor Chandler, he was often dunked by Xia Tian during the intra-team games, but he was still dunked on the court. Alas~ it's horrible.

And Hassan on the bench smiled, this Chandler was actually dunked!Anyway, I grabbed Russell's cap just now, but he was directly dunked!I see how he will have the face to pretend to be the boss in front of me in the future!
However, Hassan's smile was obviously a bit harsh. After all, everyone in his team was silent when they were detained, except for Hassan, who was so weird that he actually laughed out loud!
This Adelman can't stand it anymore, it's okay for you to joke about it, but you are gloating here when your teammate was dunked in this game, isn't it too much!

It was indeed too much. At least Adelman felt that Hassan could not be spared lightly when he went back this time. Anyway, Harden has complained every day in training recently. It should be good to arrest someone to accompany him.

Adelman's eyes slowly flashed a cold light, which made Hassan, who was laughing vigorously, suddenly fell silent. Seeing his trembling, it seemed that he also knew his end.

On the field, Westbrook patted his chest excitedly, as if he was very satisfied with today's dunk, and the fans at the scene also gave him long-lost applause.

The Rockets attacked, and Harden handed the ball to Xia Tian. Xia Tian held the ball and looked at the defensive player. Lazar Hayward couldn't help but prepare for singles. But much worse.

And if it's not a single game, it might not be easy to play when the gibbon comes back. As for why Xia Tian is called Durant the gibbon, it's actually because Xia Xia read a basketball novel in which the protagonist described Durant in this way .

Moreover, the protagonist has a good relationship with Durant, which can be regarded as the protagonist's pet name for Durant, so Xia Tian also learned and sold it here and used it here, but to be honest, it is actually correct to describe Durant like this Yes, after all, Durant has a wingspan of 228cm!So Durant being placed at the small forward position is not a bully.

Xia Tian dribbled the ball and started to get close to Lazar, Lazar didn't retreat, but stood still and waited for Xia Tian's invasion. Seeing this, Xia Tian of course didn't continue to get closer, but instead made a change of direction in front of his body to observe. Lazar's reaction.

Lazar was moved a step by this change of direction. Xia Tian saw that it was effective, and then he dribbled the ball with his crotch to get close to Lazar again. he.

Entering the restricted area, Thunder's center was still under the basket, because Chandler didn't know that Xia Tian was going to play singles, so he didn't open his position, but even if there was a center, so what, Xia Tian expressed no fear.

One step from the free throw line, Xia Tian confronted Cole directly in the air, and Xia Tian didn't want to dunk the moment his body touched. Coming up, Xia Tian couldn't rely on his wingspan to put the ball into the basket, so he finally had to throw it against Cole in the direction of the basket.

"Swish"
