Legendary basketball manager

At this time, the starters of both sides have already stepped onto the court one after another.

The Rockets still have a regular starting lineup: Curry, Tracy McGrady, George, Griffin, Yao Ming;

The Mavericks sent: Kidd, Terry, Marion, Nowitzki, Tyson Chandler.

It is worth mentioning that in this game, both teams played with all members, and the injury list was empty.

With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially begins!

Yao Ming lightly stretched his arms and won the scrum.

The rocket strikes first!

Curry passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize the offense.

In the first round, the Rockets handed the ball to Yao Ming inside as usual.

Dayao slapped his back twice in the low position, then turned his back and shot...

"Shu~"

Basketball hollow into the net!

2:0, the Rockets took the lead!

Chandler actually defended this ball very well. When Dayao made a shot, he had already blocked it to his face.

It can be said that this goal is a pure manifestation of Yao Ming's personal ability.

Offensive and defensive conversion.

With the help of a screen, Terry pocketed from the bottom line.

Kidd looked at the six directions, led the ball with the ball, and guided Terry to the most suitable position.

The moment the "Jet" received the ball, there were no Rockets defenders around, and he completed the shot very comfortably...

bingo!

2:3, the Mavericks overtook the score.

"Both sides played very fast at the beginning, and showed strong tactical execution ability. This is a typical Western game!"

Yang Yi commented in a timely manner.

Easy side to fight again, the Rockets once again handed the ball to Yao Ming inside.

Dayao faced Chandler's defense and wanted to do the same trick again, but this time, the latter slapped the ball away when he turned around.

Curry and Kidd reacted immediately and rushed towards the falling basketball together.

At this time, the advantages of young people's speed and explosive power are revealed.

Curry took the first step, controlled the ball near the baseline, and stepped out with his right foot, and he was about to break through with a crotch dribble.

Kidd was caught off guard and quickly backed away, trying to block Curry's way.

But the next moment, Mengshen dribbled the ball behind his back and pulled it back, returning to the original point.

The change of the center of gravity between going back and forth made it difficult for old Kidd to resist.

When he wanted to "brake" and pounce on Curry again...

"Crack..."

There was a slight bone rubbing sound.

It turned out that Kidd accidentally twisted his ankle when he stopped and started suddenly.

Old Kidd has rich experience. The moment he found out that he was sprained, he gave up exerting his strength and sat down on the ground to minimize the pressure on his ankle.

However, the fans couldn't help but exclaim after he fell to the ground.

"woo..."

Without any physical contact, Curry actually ended Kidd's ankle.

ankle.breaker (ankle terminator)!

This time, there was no one in front of Curry.

He paused for a moment, adjusted his rhythm before taking the shot calmly...

"Shu~"

4:3, the Rockets overtook the score!

Kidd, who has always been seasoned, was knocked to the ground by a second-year rookie.

This made him somewhat embarrassed...

After being pulled up by his teammates, Kidd shook his head and smiled bitterly, and raised his hand to indicate that he didn't defend the ball well.

Although Kidd is old, it doesn't mean he isn't competitive.

After this almost "humiliating" goal, he also plans to get back to the field!

The Kidd in people's impression is probably passing the ball coquettishly, with good defensive ability, and he even practiced a three-pointer in the latter part of his career.

But his ability is actually far more than that.

When Kidd was young, his physical fitness was very strong, and his explosive power was extremely strong, and he was often able to perform wonderful performances.

He gradually lost his athletic ability as he got older, but used his body better than he did in his youth.

In this round, Kidd held the ball at 45° on the right and signaled his teammates to pull away.

Then, he used a small but realistic crossover to shake Curry half a step away.

In this half-step space, Kidd immediately started with all his strength, seized his position with his shoulders, and firmly stuck Curry at his side.

In this way, he carried Curry all the way into the elbow zone, and he was about to take a three-step layup.

Dayao, who was guarding the penalty area, saw his teammates out of position, so he had to move laterally to defend.

But at the moment when his center of gravity just shifted, Kidd flicked his wrist and threw the ball into the sky...

The next moment, Tyson Chandler was born!

He jumped high, caught a pass from Kidd in the air, and slammed it into the hoop...

"bang!"

A powerful two-handed slam dunk, the Mavericks on the scene went crazy.

4:5, the Mavericks went ahead again.

After scoring the goal, Kidd glanced at Curry with a smile, his little expression was quite sullen.

However, before he was happy for too long, Curry received Yao Ming's fast serve baseline ball and began to advance at high speed.

Kidd has done a very in-depth research before the game, knows the Rockets' outside lines, and likes to make cold shots when the offense and defense switch.

He immediately realized that Curry probably wanted to hit the ball in response, so he hurried to the latter.

Then, the experienced Kidd did not rush to try to steal, but left a half-step space.

At this distance, when Curry shoots, he can interfere immediately; when Curry breaks through, he also has time to react.

[Perfect position selection, this is the role of pre-match analysis! ]

Kidd thought to himself, very satisfied with his defensive choice.

Then...

Curry glanced up at the rim, Kidd flew out...

Mengshen took a step forward, received the ball, turned his head and smiled at Kidd who was completely out of position, and then turned around and shot easily.

After the basketball left his fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

answer. ball!

The American Airlines Center, which was cheering and cheering a moment ago, fell silent in an instant.

At 7:5, Curry scored five points in a row to help the team overtake the score again.

"Hey, I didn't expect today to be an old man and a young man. The two point guards will compete first~"

Yang Yi laughed.

"Interesting and interesting! The two have very different styles. It can be said that it is a contest between the old and new generations of point guards!"

Yu Jia added.

After the goal, Curry passed by Kidd, unable to hide his smile.

Kidd could afford to lose, and patted Curry's butt with a smile: "Respect the elderly."

"I think you are still hard to beat."

Curry responded with a smile.

............

The first quarter of the game came to an end in the confrontation between the two teams.

Whether it is the Rockets or the Mavericks, there is nothing they can do about each other's offense.

And the main generals of the two teams - Tracy McGrady and Nowitzki, invariably chose to connect teammates in the first quarter, and did not have much personal offense.

To put it simply, the first quarter is the stage where the two top teams test each other.

The score of 32:32 is not surprising.

After a short break, the game resumed.

At the beginning of the second quarter, it was the regular rotation time, and the two teams sent substitute players.

For the Mavericks, Nowitzki played again after a short break at the end of the first quarter.

Along with Butler and JJ Barea, he leads the Mavericks' transition lineup.

As for the Rockets, Mark Jackson made large-scale adjustments as always——

Danny Green replaced Curry, Tucker replaced Griffin, and Ben replaced Yao Ming.

At this time, the Rockets' lineup is: McGrady, George, Green, Tucker, and Ben.

As soon as these five people appeared on the court, they shocked the CCTV commentators.

"Eh? What kind of tactics is this rocket?"

"Good guy! These five people standing together are almost the same height!"

"Is this what Pat Riley calls 'ultimate basketball'?"

Yang Yi said in surprise.

After being a commentator for so many years, it was the first time he saw five people with such similar heights appearing at the same time!

"em... If you line up like this, McGrady should play the point guard, and Ben will play the center..."

"I'm really not sure about the others, which position to play."

"I feel that with the Rockets' lineup, the positions of the five players on the court are all vague, which is completely different from traditional basketball where each performs their duties."

Yu Jia analyzed.

"This unrestrained lineup can be seen as Shen Fei's handwriting..."

"Friends in the audience, maybe today we will witness the real 'Ultimate Basketball', everyone can wait and see."

Yang Yi was both excited and confused.

As a host, he doesn't want the game to exceed his expectations too much.

The Rockets game has always been a headache for Yang Yi.

Because you never know when, it will give you the whole job, and it is an unprecedented "live"!

The Mavericks were also stunned when they saw the five Rockets.

Substitute center Haywood walked up to Ben Wallace and asked in confusion, "Brother, are you playing against me?"

Big Ben glanced at him and ignored him.

Although Heywood played the ball well, he was not easy to mess with being fat.

Heywood hadn't met someone like Big Ben who directly ignored him for a long, long time.

He originally wanted to express his dissatisfaction with a few words of trash talk, but when he saw Da Ben's steel-like muscles, he swallowed his saliva and swallowed all the words.

............

The Mavericks serve.

Barea advanced with the ball and met McGrady's defense.

Looking at his opponent who was much taller than him, Barea, known as "a mountain in Puerto Rico", subconsciously wanted to break through.

But as soon as he started, he was surprised to find that McGrady's pace was no slower than his.

Accelerate, pull back under the crotch, stop and start suddenly...

Barea's operation was as fierce as a tiger, and he took a closer look...McGrady was still in front of him.

Yishan sighed and raised his hand to signal his teammates to come over for the pick-and-roll.

Nowitzki has no superstar airs at all, and puts up the cover in a fart.

After going around the pick-and-roll, Barea manages to break away from Tracy McGrady and replace him with...Tucker.

As soon as the shoe king came up, he gave a mountain a greeting gift with his chest.

Barea was bumped and took two steps back staggeringly.

Before he could complain to the referee, Tucker took advantage of the situation and once again bullied him.

Barea retreated again and again, turning sideways to protect the ball.

Soon, he was forced close to the touchline.

At this moment, George, who was not far away, suddenly gave up the matchup player and came to double-team Barea with Tucker.

For a moment, Barea saw only four big hands.

He couldn't see any teammates at all, he could only hold the ball tightly to prevent being intercepted.

[The second quarter has just started, would it be inappropriate to call a timeout? ]

Barea thought to himself.

Just when he was hesitating, George suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed the basketball in his arms.

Then, Pickled Pepper's center of gravity sank, his waist and horse became one, and he threw all his strength to the side...

The "petite" Barea rose into the air with a surprised expression.

"Beep!"

The referee blows the whistle, and the ball is scrambled!
