Legendary basketball manager

The little giant took off the towel draped over his shoulders, handed it to the assistant behind him, and then walked steadily towards the technical table.

Ben Wallace seemed dissatisfied with his performance today. When he walked off the field, he lowered his head slightly, his expression not very good.

But when he saw Yao Ming, Da Ben took the initiative to extend his hand, instead of clapping his hands, he said, "I'll leave it to you, Yao."

Yao Ming smiled slightly: "Don't worry."

Soon, the referee passed the ball to Wade at the free throw line.

The Flash hits the ball firmly.

43:40, the point difference is only 3 point.

Rocket attack.

Curry passes the ball to Yao Ming in the low post.

The Heat still didn't intend to flank Dayao, so Howard continued to defend alone.

Such an arrangement, one is trust in Howard's defensive ability, and the other is a gamble that it will be difficult for Yao Ming to maintain his fiery state in the first quarter.

After all, once Yao Ming is double-teamed, the Rockets' outside shooters will get more opportunities.

This is what the Heat don't want to see.

But...they still underestimated the angry little giant.

After Yao Ming received the ball in the low post, he half-turned and turned into a face-up attack.

Howard strode forward, not giving Yao Ming an easy shot.

Dayao acted accordingly, immediately dropped the ball, and crossed to the right to break through.

His speed is not as good as Howard, but he has a clear advantage in tonnage.

After carrying the monster into the restricted area, Yao Ming took off with one foot, protected the ball with his left hand, and completed a skyhook with his right hand...

This ball fully embodies Yao Ming's solid basic skills and soft touch.

Although Howard took off with all his strength to block the block, he was blocked by Dayao's left hand and failed to form a block. In the end, he could only watch the latter complete the skyhook.

"Shu~"

Basketball hit the net.

45: 40!

In the transition between offense and defense, Wade once again played a pick-and-roll tactic at the top of the arc.

But this time, after he broke into the penalty area, he encountered Yao Ming's overwhelming defense.

Dayao didn't care about Wade's fake moves at all.

He kept his arms high all the time, and only waited for The Flash to make a move before jumping up to interfere.

Although it failed to deliver the hot pot, it actually interfered with Wade's shot.

Wade's layup bounced out of the frame, Yi Jianlian quickly received the rebound, and passed the ball to Curry immediately.

Rocket No. 30 advanced quickly with the ball.

Wade returned to the defense at full speed, and while running, he signaled to Ray Allen to switch defenses.

Soon, the Flash caught up with Curry and began to stick his defense like a dog's skin plaster.

Curry was still relatively young at this time, and he didn't make the best response when he was forced by Wade.

He was careless, and Wade set the ball out of the baseline.

The rocket's fast break was thus stifled in the cradle.

In the dead ball stage, Mark Jackson waved his hand and made another substitution adjustment.

Shuhao, McGrady, and George are all on the stage, plus the Huaxia Twin Towers inside, the Rockets' lineup actually has 3 Chinese people!

This scene is the first time in the history of the finals!

In a corner of the stands, a group of fans suddenly shouted in unison and began to celebrate wildly.

They are wearing red clothes, but this red is not "Rocket Red", but "Huaxia Red"!

These people came all the way from China to cheer for Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, and Jeremy Lin!

"Yao Ming!"

"come on!!!"

"Yi Jianlian!"

"come on!!!"

"Jeremy Lin!"

"come on!!!"

......

Although there are not many of them, their voices are extremely loud, and the cheers are full of pride.

Shen Fei in the box also noticed them.

He smiled slightly, obviously very happy with the scene in front of him.

Ajiali showed an envious look: "When will my country produce so many NBA players..."

"Someday."

Shen Fei said lightly.

Of course, as a traveler, he naturally knows that India will not have such basketball talents in the next ten years.

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

Look back to the field.

The Rockets serve from the sideline.

George passed the ball to Jeremy Lin.

Yi Jianlian quickly stepped up and set up a pick-and-roll for Shu Hao.

With the help of cover, Brother Hao easily got rid of the Heat's first line of defense.

He dribbles to the free throw line and meets Howard, who is helping.

Shuhao didn't panic, he stopped, his knees were slightly bent, and his eyes were looking at the basket.

Howard immediately thought he was going to make an emergency stop for a jumper, and subconsciously took off to interfere.

Unexpectedly, this is just a "Buddha worship" made by Shuhao on the go.

After flying Howard, Brother Hao lowered his head, accelerated to the basket, and made an easy layup.

47: 40!

"Beautiful! This fake move is so realistic! The two point guards of the Rockets, one Curry and the other Jeremy, are very good at making fake shots on the move."

Su Qun commented in a timely manner.

"McGrady also made similar fake moves...but...in my impression, this technical move was not common in the past few years."

"It stands to reason that such an easy-to-use action should be widely used."

Yang Yi said doubtfully.

While the two were talking, Spoelstra on the sidelines had asked James and Haslem to go to the technical stage to wait to play.

But before they hit the court, the Rockets played another successful defense.

James broke through to score the ball, and Jones in the corner opened his bow and took an arrow to make a three-pointer.

But after he took the shot, Yi Jianlian took off with one foot, jumped high, and successfully touched the basketball with his fingertips.

The ball falls quickly in the air.

Yao Ming and Howard took off at the same time.

Howard relied on his faster bullet speed to take the first step and win the ball.

However, before he had time to make the next move, George, who had just entered the field, took out his ghostly hand and cut the ball directly.

The Rockets took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack!

George happened to pass by James as he dribbled through half court.

Lao Zhan looked at Paojiao galloping away, and wished he could go on the court to chase and defend immediately.

George took the lead and killed the Heat's hinterland.

Seeing that he was about to rush to the restricted area, Wade accelerated decisively and rushed back to the restricted area.

But George was fully charged at this time!

He took three strides forward and rose into the air against Wade's defense...

"Snapped!"

Wade's ruthless hand pushed down George's dunk.

The ball bounced high after hitting the ground.

Wade and George bent their knees at the same time, ready to take off for the second rebound.

But the next moment, a yellow-skinned figure took the lead and appeared in the air...

It's Yi Jianlian!

He caught the ball with both hands in the air and pushed it into the basket!

At 49:40, the point difference was approaching double digits.

On the sidelines, Heat coach Spoelstra stood up from the coach's bench and signaled a timeout to the referee.

After the timeout ended, the Rockets and Heat replaced all starters at the same time.

The game continues.

In the next few minutes, the two teams that had been sent to the starting lineup basically became evenly balanced.

At the end of the half, the score was fixed at 61:53, and the Rockets returned to the locker room with an 8-point lead.

It is worth mentioning that Yao Ming made 8 of 8 shots in the first half and scored 20 points!

This is his highest halftime score in this year's playoffs, and it is also the highest score so far among all players of the two teams today.

Therefore, during the halftime break, Heat coach Spoelstra unkindly mentioned Janeway's provocative behavior before the game.

"I know you are both angry and want to respond to the Rockets' previous remarks."

"But I still think the best response is to play better on the court. And the Rockets are so high-toned up and down that we just need to win one game and we can slap them in the face. "

James and Wade nodded silently after hearing this.

At least judging from the first half of the game, their provocation only had the effect of irritating Yao Ming.

But Yao Ming did not take the lead and made irrational decisions on the court. On the contrary, he was inspired to attack far better than before and have a fiery touch.

"In the second half, we'll work it out."

Wade glanced at James, then said solemnly.

James also nodded: "Only 8 points away, we have every chance to turn defeat into victory."

Seeing this, Sipo didn't say anything more, turned around and started to arrange the tactics for the second half.

Soon, the halftime break is over, and the third quarter is about to begin!
