I remember the last call with Linda was 3 days ago.

The main reason for calling over means that Zhou Yang should not pass this time frequently. It's best not to come. The reason is that her company is now sending a lot of talent scouts to poach people in college! For example, Irving, Walker, Biyombo and Leonard, who are playing right now, are very attractive.

Zhou Yang was also shocked when he heard these names on the phone at that time! In his previous life, Irving and Big Brother of the Hornets, as well as Kawaii of the Spurs, were already very influential superstars!

But Zhou Yang is now powerless to take care of his sister's company. The team is now in the playoffs and the league standings are out.

In the East are the Celtics, Heat, Hawks, Magic, Bulls, Knicks, Pacers and 76ers! The Bulls are still going strong! Rose also said in the media this season that he wants to lead the Bulls further!

This team is now standing up in the East! The combination of Boozer and Rose makes them even more aggressive!

The Western rankings are Spurs, Mavericks, Lakers, Thunder, Rockets, Trail Blazers, Nuggets and Grizzlies! The New Orleans Hornets didn't finish in the top eight in the West! This season, the competition in the West is extremely fierce!

Zhou Yang has nothing to do these days. The team was on vacation, and he regretted firing Lulu early. I don't know what she's doing now. When it comes to the playoffs, Zhou Yang feels that he has to rely on himself for many things!

The season is now coming to an end. The competition will get even more intense! The first opponent the Rockets faced was the Oklahoma City Thunder! This team really looks invincible right now!

If it's a team in the 6-8th place in the West, the Rockets are still somewhat sure. But now facing the Thunder Rockets, which have a lot of impact, they are really a little uncertain. There are no assistants around me who can analyze them.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon, Zhou Yang watched 3 Thunder games at his residence, the time was very fast, and it was already dark before he knew it.

In the final games of the regular season, the Spurs played each other for the last time, and the opponent won 120-100 against the Rockets. In the fourth quarter, the game was played directly. Being able to enter the playoffs in the fifth place in the West is something that many Rockets players did not expect, and it is also something that Rockets management did not expect.

The Rockets management set them the goal of finishing eighth in the West and making the playoffs. Unexpectedly, in the end, they got the ticket to the playoffs in 5th place in the West.

The Spurs are so strong this year. If you really enter as the eighth, it's basically going to be cold...... The Spurs, the Mavericks, the Lakers, these teams are already very strong!

The Thunder have now reached new heights in terms of their overall roster. Although they feel that it is very difficult to win the Western Conference Finals, it is almost a luxury! But they still have to challenge it!

Unlike previous years, this season's Thunder team has been very good in all aspects. Angry Birds can score points quickly! The other players played remarkably! The media called Hassan, Durant and Westbrook the "Thunder Three"!

A new rising power in recent years!

At this time, Zhou Yang felt that the promotion to A-level was only a matter before and after the playoffs. In the final days of the regular season, although expectations were increasing, the A qualification rating was never met. The backstage looks very close.

......

"The Thunder are still young, so let's just relax and play this game," Adelman comforted his players. And the Rockets feel the same, and although they play at the Thunder's home court today, they have confidence. At least one of the two away games can be won, right?

Hassan, Hill, Dragic, they feel the atmosphere of the playoffs. And Lowry is already surprised by this. Hassan has several new pairs of sneakers for the playoffs! The two pairs of long wears, and the rest are prepared more because of Yao Ming's words.

The Thunder team should be careful not to be carried away by the rhythm of the other party! The other party's sudden and indiscriminate bombardment is very powerful! If the Rockets follow their pace, the game will be difficult to win.

There are two games in the West today, one between the Lakers and the Trail Blazers at Staples Arena, and the other is here. The Thunder's starters tonight are Kerr, Durant, White, Westbrook and Cook! On the Rockets' side are Yao Ming, Zhou Yang, Scola, Lowry and Battier!

Hassan and Hill were visibly uncomfortable at this point. The frantic shouts of the fans at the scene made them feel tight. Although some of the teammates around me are nothing, they are not very comfortable.

There are times when you have to focus on the game in the playoffs.

"No matter what opponent we face in the first round, we will beat them! We finished 4th in the regular season! Durant said to Zhou Yang with some pride at this time. The other party didn't react at all......

Zhou Yang didn't know how to answer Du Shao's words for a while. The momentum of the other side is very tough. Du Shao looked at Zhou Yang's appearance and immediately stopped talking, who knows what he was going to suddenly say and do next......

The Asian strikers on the opposite side are still very imposing. Du Shao felt that he was still a little inferior to the other party in this aspect. He knew that if he wanted to be the best in the league right now. Zhou Yang and James are two big obstacles in front of him!

As the game began, Yao Ming took the lead in getting the basketball! Zhou Yang then took Yao Ming's pass and turned around and passed Durant! When the opponent suddenly nervous and rushed over, Zhou Yang hit the ball and passed to Battier, who immediately hit a three-point jumper!

When the Thunder learned that the Rockets were playing the first round of the playoffs with them, everyone had mixed feelings. If you look at the rankings, the Rockets are not as tall as them right now. But if you look at the opponent's experience of the game, they are very sophisticated!

Now the whole alliance knows that Zhou Yang is a very difficult guy to prevent! And his form on the pitch and his ability to organise the team is also remarkable! Such an opponent, even if their Magneto Harden is not able to take Zhou Yang.

Cook held the ball to the front court and was directly blocked by Lowry! At this time, he felt that both guards of the Rockets were very strong defensive players. He read that right, it was.

Willis gets the basketball and passes the ball to Durant. The latter's jump shot was blocked by Zhou Yang!

Then White picked up the basketball and shot and was hit by Yao Ming! Scola got the ball next to him and immediately passed it to Lowry, and Battier received his pass in the front court and scored a layup!

Sean, who usually doesn't score much, scored 5 points in the first game of the playoffs today! Off the pitch, Carroll, Whiteside, Dragic and Hill watched the game quietly.

In fact, now let them say what is the difference between the playoffs and the regular season, they can't say for a while. But it just doesn't feel like it's the same as the regular season. The players were very excited. Because not players in the NBA will necessarily be able to experience the playoffs, they can come here to borrow the brilliance of Da Yao and Zhou Yang.

Adelman would normally be happier, or he would walk back to his seat and sit down for a while. But today he did nothing. Just standing there quietly and motionless watching the game.

At the end of the two rounds, the Thunder calmed down a lot. After Durant asked for the ball in person, he shook off Zhou Yang's defense for a distance, and then shot a long-distance 2-point shot!

"What's wrong with you?" Hill rubbed his temples at this time, and when he saw Hassan leaning his neck and didn't know what to do, he immediately asked.

"They are so passionate! I've seen the NBA playoffs on TV before, but it's still too loud......" Hassan looked at Hill with some helplessness.

"Playoffs, 16 teams. Everybody wants to fight for this championship. It's not that easy," Hill said with a reluctant smile at this time, and the big man of the team said. He's adjusting to the playoff atmosphere himself. Just as they were saying it was time for the jamming cards to appear!

Lowry vigilantly slowed down, and the basketball was almost snatched away by Wei Shao! Zhou Yang got his ball and passed it to Scola while attracting the opponent's defense. The latter threw a three-no-stick, and Cole immediately threw the ball to Du Shao after receiving Scola's "pass" directly in the air!

Harden began to take off his coat under the camera at this point. He started warming up after nodding his head a few times next to the manager! The cheers of the audience rang out again. Hassan and Hill started to cover their ears after speaking, but he found that although the sound outside his ears was quieter, it was still there!

Cook took Du Shao's ball in the front court and turned around and hit a three-point hollow into the net!

Battier passes the ball to Da Yao in front. The latter suddenly started Olajuwon's dream dance moves and shot directly past Kerr to score points!! Cole could only sigh at Yao Ming's good luck at this time! Needless to say, go to the Rockets to be the main force, but in Houston, you can also get the dream dance skills of Big Dream Olajuwon!

Originally, Yao Ming's height and his shooting were quite a headache! It's really uncomfortable to have wind under your feet now!

Wei Shao took the ball to the front court and everyone ran over, but there was a timeout on the spot!

"Basketball to Willis and Durant. Harden came to draw the Rockets' defense and create opportunities for the two of them to free up time. The current Rockets are too strong defensively......"

"......" Harden was just thinking about how to attack. Immediately the manager told him to just pass.

"I think the more we get to the end, the more often we foul us. Yao Ming, you have to watch out for Harden's offense! "In the regular season, not only is the Thunder's sometimes bombing offense a headache for opponents, but their ability to "touch porcelain" in the game is not ordinary!

Many times the opponent doesn't understand what is going on and then fouls...... It's what caught you off guard when you get a foul...... Before the game, the Thunder also went to study the opponent. The previous game against the Spurs made the head coach of the Thunder see it as a textbook case of defeating the Rockets to his players!

Although the Rockets don't have Maddie on guard right now, they have a lot of guards who can play too! Don't think too much about this, the most powerful ones here in Houston belong to Yao Ming and Zhou Yang!

In terms of movement speed, Zhou Yang is basically no play, so it is right to point the finger at Yao Ming. Both teams knew when they studied their opponents before the game that both the Thunder and the Rockets could play a lot of players!

It's just that the Thunder don't have any particularly strong players. The Thunder three are gone, and it won't affect much. But the Rockets are different, and the reason why they can rush to such a position this season is because of Yao Ming's return!

In the past, the Rockets in the league have summed up the rules. For the bottom team in the league or the average team, it is still impossible to beat the Houston Rockets, but it is easy for a strong team with okay strength to take the Rockets. At that time, the biggest weakness of the Rockets was that they were weak on the inside, and they were easy to be eaten by opponents.

Wei Shao passed the ball to Harden, and the opponent went to Yao Ming to touch porcelain after entering the inside line of the Rocket! Before Yao Ming could dodge, Zhou Yang directly struck a bloody cap, almost scaring Harden to sit on the ground. But he immediately reacted and fell to the ground, meaning referee, look at Zhou Yang, he hit me.

After lying on the ground for a few seconds, I saw that Team Rocket had rushed over before I reacted. The referee ignored him...... Lowry hit a three-point shot directly after receiving Zhou Yang's ball!

Durant patted Wei Shao, who was talking to Harden, and said something to Angry Birds for almost 10 seconds. Harden nodded as he dribbled the ball. It didn't take long for basketball to come to Durant, and in the face of Yao Ming and Zhou Yang's package, Durant's forced shot basketball directly hit the iron.

As soon as Battier got the basketball, he was cut off by Wei Shao! Before the Rockets went to defense, Westbrook got up directly and made a violent dunk to the basket! The Thunder fans at the scene cheered wildly again!

This dunk is like a microcosm of the Thunder's entire season! The SuperSonics disintegrated that year, and the team immediately ushered in a reorganization. In the process, they faced too many doubts, but no matter how they were pressed and beaten by their opponents in the regular season, or the score was stale, they won their opponents again and again in the crazy chasing points!

The image of the Thunder team has gradually become less ordinary and dispensable! This season, the team rushed to 4th place in the West! It seems that they are one step closer to the Western Conference championship!

With Westbrook's violent dunk, the momentum of the Thunder players on the scene gradually rose! Battier's layup is interfered with by Kerr! In the chaos, Willis grabbed the basketball and immediately passed the ball to Harden. The latter immediately rushed to the front court and hit a three-point shot with no one guarded!

The opponent's counterattack made the Rockets' bench a little less hot. At this time, Hassan, Dragic, they were a little better. It's also a bit of a fit for them to be in this environment all the time.

Lowry rushed out under the entanglement of the three of the Thunder team! Facing the dribble of the small steel cannon, it is really not easy to prevent him. It didn't take long for Yao Ming to get the basketball, he didn't dribble, he turned around and jumped and shot the basketball hollow hit!

Wei Shao quickly dribbles to the front court! It didn't take long for the pass to Durant, who drew the ball directly to the Rockets defense and passed it to Harden. The latter also hit a direct jump shot with 2 points!

It didn't take long for Scola's pass to be cut off by Durant! Westbrook took his pass and ran wildly! Rockets Zhou Yang and Battier are desperately catching up! But the basketball horse was uploaded to Harden! Then it was given to Wei Shao, and then the Rockets players focused their attention on them!

Durant had just run back at this time, received a pass from Westbrook, and immediately jumped up and crossed the net with a long-range three-pointer! 15：12！ The Thunder put the score in the lead, and Adelman directly asked for a timeout.
