Legendary basketball manager

As we all know, Yao Ming's first famous scene in the NBA was in the game against the Suns during his rookie period, when he was thrown to the ground by a change of direction by Marbury.

That scene was repeatedly disseminated by major media, so Dayao became the background board for many years.

In those years, as long as there were highlights of ankle terminators or extraordinary people, this ball was indispensable.

Now that times have changed, the situation Yao Ming is facing now is exactly the same as that at that time.

The same big defense against the small, also facing the small guard who is good at extraordinary.

The difference is that Yao Ming now has a lot more experience than then, and he also has some defensive methods when facing small guards.

More importantly, he lost weight this year and was treated by Shen Fei for all his injuries, which made his speed and agility not inferior to those of his rookie days!

With the improvement of experience and skills, and the speed of movement under his feet has not weakened, Yao Ming's ability to defend small guards has naturally improved a lot.

This time, facing Baron Davis' Crossover, Yao Ming had a clear mind and was very calm.

He didn't move sideways in a hurry, but took half a step back to distance himself from Davis.

In this way, the opponent's change of direction dribble loses its meaning, because there is no one to pass!

Moreover, if Davis wants to speed up his breakthrough, Yao Ming will have more time to react, so that he will not be wiped out.

The bearded man shakes his loneliness.

At this time, his best choice is to shoot directly.

After all, although Yao Ming is tall and has long arms, the distance from him is too far, and it is impossible to block shots.

But Davis is not good at shooting. So far this season, his three-point shooting percentage is only 29.6%, which is definitely not a qualified shooter.

But now the attack time is about to run out, and he has no time to re-attack.

In desperation, Davis simply stepped back and bounced outside the three-point line, making a three-pointer.

"Duang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced out of the frame.

Griffin jumped high, and with a "snap!", he grabbed the ball firmly in his hands.

Today's him is full of murderous aura from inside to outside, and every movement is done with all his strength.

Anyone can see that Griffin played with air today.

On the bench, the Rockets' assistant coach also reminded Mark Jackson of this.

But Jackson smiled slightly and said, "If you're not arrogant, can that be called a young man?"

"Although Blake played with anger, he didn't do anything out of line, and that's a good thing!"

The game continues.

After Griffin grabbed the rebound, he immediately looked for point guard Lowry.

But the experienced Davis, in order to prevent the Rockets from launching a counterattack in the first place, has rushed to Lowry at this time to prevent the latter from receiving the ball smoothly.

Griffin had no choice but to turn the line of defense and look for McGrady. As a result, T-MAC was also blocked by Gordon in front of him.

In this way, there are only two options in front of Griffin, pass the ball to George with a long pass across the half court, or hold the ball and advance.

After hesitating for less than a second, Griffin made a decision-to push back and fight back!

Why was Griffin able to overwhelm talented players like Curry and Harden in 09 and become the No. [-] pick in an undisputed way?

If you say relying on historical-level dynamic talent, it would be too one-sided.

In the history of the NBA, there has never been a shortage of people with outstanding physical talents.

The Rockets used to have a brutalist power forward named Taylor Swift, oh no, Tromile Swift.

This man is able to complete a stand-by jumping windmill dunk in actual combat!

In terms of dynamic talent alone, he may not lose to Griffin.

But such a monster has a very bleak career, and he went to China to pan for gold last year.

So how is Griffin different than Swift?

An obvious difference is that Griffin has an extremely rare sense of the ball among inside players!

He can dribble very smoothly and complete various actions with guard-like speed.

And now, Griffin acted as a point guard and began to lead the team to launch a counterattack.

As soon as he lowered his head, he began to accelerate.

In the beginning, Griffin relied on speed to get past the opposing Aminu.

After halftime, Eric Gordon saw him advance with the ball in an inside line, so he moved to steal.

Gordon popped out, slamming his right foot into the ground, and at the same time stretched out his right hand, directly into Griffin's dribbler.

At this time, Griffin's center of gravity is high, and he doesn't seem to be much defensive.

"woo..."

The Rockets fans at the scene exclaimed, as if they had foreseen the scene of Griffin being robbed.

But the next moment, everyone was stunned!

When Gordon's hand was about to touch the basketball, Griffin suddenly dribbled behind his back and switched the ball to his left hand.

And Gordon is like a passerby, briefly appearing in front of Griffin, and then disappearing quickly.

Griffin smiled and continued to speed up towards the Clippers restricted area.

At this time, Baron Davis returned to the defense and stood still one step outside the reasonable collision zone.

Davis's position selection is very precise, just stuck in the only way for Griffin to hit the basket.

If Griffin chooses to play hard, then he may be called an offensive foul!

At the critical moment, Griffin once again showed his dribbling skills.

Leaning on Davis with his left hand, he turned around swiftly and passed the latter cleanly.

The next moment, the white monster came out of the cage!

"BANG!"

A powerful tomahawk slashing the button directly caused the scene to boil.

"Ahhhh!!!"

"This dribbling, this handling, I feel that many defenders can't do it!"

"What kind of monster is this? No wonder he became the No. [-] pick last year. The Clippers gave us such a treasured player. I don't even know how to thank them!"

Rockets fans were ecstatic.

In the past games, although Griffin performed very well, he has never been so aggressive and resolute as he is today!

Today, he is like a wounded tiger. After licking his wounds, he finally returns as king!

"Roar!!!"

Griffin himself was very excited, roaring in response to the cheers of the fans.

He was suffocating today, wanting to prove that the Clippers were wrong to give up his behavior.

And the two dunks in less than 3 minutes of the opening are Griffin's meeting ceremony!

At 7:0, the Rockets continued to expand their lead.

At this time, the head coach of the Clippers, De Nagro, couldn't sit still and began to consider whether to call a timeout.

Just as he was hesitating, his players blundered again.

This time, it was McGrady who judged the passing route of Baron Davis, started ahead of schedule, and directly intercepted his pass.

The moment T-MAC completed the steal, all the fans in the stands stood up and began to cheer.

Amidst the bursts of sound, McGrady rushed towards the Clippers halftime step by step!
