Chapter 409: The gap is too big
The game came to this point, and Yang felt that there was nothing to keep last week. He knows what the coach means, and Adelman still wants to make the playoffs like this.
Battier slowly moved up to the front and passed the ball to Zhou Yang from Mime, who gave him a foul directly from Garnett. Since the opponent is so strong now, let's just make a foul!
"I thought you were going to attack. It turned out that he deliberately made a foul, the referee him, deliberately he was okay" Garnett said to the referee a little unwillingly, but obviously the other party didn't want to dwell too much on this issue.
Zhou Yang came to the free throw line and hit all 2 free throws! Rondo gets the basketball! Pierce takes the basketball and is blocked by Battier! Not long after Garnett got the basketball, he collided directly with Zhou Yang!
Immediately Zhou Yang flew out, and Garnett was whistled for an offensive foul. Doug stretched out his hands at this time, revealing a puzzled expression, and reasoned with the referee. But when the theory was fruitless, he directly asked for a pause.
Kostic was called over by Doug. Adelman looked at Zhou Yang at this time, and it seemed that he had his own ideas in the game. Let the opponent's stay prematurely foul and leave the game. Looks like it works!
On the home court of the Rockets, Yang felt that the other party was a little too much next week. According to the way they played just now, they went for 50 points in a single game!! Naturally, this is not allowed!
At this time, the "actor skills" learned in the Cavaliers and Vallejo played a role! The other party did foul, and Zhou Yang's acting skills even praised Valejo in his heart
Just now, Garnett was very happy that he felt that he would be able to humiliate the Rockets quickly! But before he could be happy, he was replaced by the coach. Premature fouls and too many times still make Doug wary!
The game is back again, Whiteside is already a little unsure of how to play, compared to the last game, Hassan completely found that he can't do a lot of things now! In the last game with the Lakers, one of them was excited to come back from an NBA game without playing for a while, and the other was that the team still took good care of him, and feeding him a lot of cakes made him feel a lot more confident. But that's not the case at all!
What makes him feel a little embarrassed is that he doesn't know how to cooperate with his teammates and how to find the rhythm of the other party, but he is always covered. He was already panicking. But you have to pretend to be calm on the field.
There are so many pairs of eyes staring at him in the Toyota Center Arena! The hope given by everyone became a burden on Hassan's shoulders at this time. It made him feel unusually heavy. Seeing Yao Ming getting stronger and stronger, he felt that he could too. But when he came to his position by accident, he found that the gap was too big compared to Da Yao!
"Hey!!" Zhou Yang suddenly shouted at this time, startling Hassan. But the basketball flew out of his right hand anyway! A wave of surprise and a few boos ensued.
"Relax man, this game is basically not going to be won. Why not enjoy it? Zhou Yang looked at the big man for a few seconds, and then ran over to him when he was far away from the greenshirts, and whispered to him.
"The game has just begun!" Hassan looked at Zhou Yang in disbelief and said.
"It's almost over, and maybe what we can do is not make it too ugly. The strength of our two teams is obviously not equal. Boy, look at me! Zhou Yang patted his arm several times and said.
"What"
"Don't think it's useless, understand? Just concentrate on the game, if you have any doubts about the half-time or the end of the game, come to me, OK? ”
"OK," Whiteside said to Zhou Yang a little sneeringly.
"Go to the basket!" Zhou Yang suddenly pushed Hassan and rushed over to meet Rondo's jump shot, which was a bloody cap!!
"Just take the lead, play carefully!" Doug couldn't help but shout at his players on the sidelines at this time! Obviously, the 12-2 start made the Green Shirts a little underwhelmed. They couldn't do this anymore, Kevin was replaced, and Batman on the Rockets' side came on the court to defend!
"You can now dribble up to two times after receiving a pass, and then either pass or score!" Zhou Yang said to Hassan after dribbling to him.
Rondo watched the two of them talk like that all the time on the field, and it was very hot. Ignore us?! So he immediately rushed over to cut off the ball in Zhou Yang's hand. And Zhou Yang suddenly looked up, saw the latter one turn around, passed Rondo, and immediately rushed over!
When Meme thought Zhou Yang was going to dunk and retreat, Zhou Yang hit a three-point jumper! 12:7! The camera was shown to Doug at this time, and his face was dazed, puzzled, and angry.
"It's not what we want! Everyone, get serious! Pierce saw that his teammates were a little slack, so he immediately told them.
Hassan has a lot of problems at this time. There's also a huge sense of confusion. How long can he stay with Team Rocket? Are you going to be back in the development alliance soon? Thinking of what Zhou Yang had just said to him, he immediately ran over. But it's still slow.
Kostic received a pass from Rondo and changed direction from Hassan, passed him directly and threw in to score points! There are as many expectations as there are disappointments, and now Rockets fans are already a little disappointed in Hassan.
In the last game they only saw where Whiteside shined, but not his flaws. And today's game, Hassan's shortcomings seem to be magnified by all kinds of infinitely!
This made Hassan look embarrassed, but he couldn't dodge it, so he could only run back and forth with the team on the field. Adelman was patient at first, and the young first-grader always had to give him some chance to make mistakes. But after a while, Adelman began to shake his head, this big man had a lot to strengthen, and he didn't know how to hide his flaws.
Scola was caught by three players and passed the ball to Hassan, and Mime didn't even think about running directly to meet Hassan, which was a big hat! Pierce nodded and picked up the basketball and passed it straight to Rondo, who quickly went to the front court and looked back at Zhou Yang and hit a three-point jumper!
In the last match, he felt like he was about to become Yao Ming's second, but in this match, Hassan felt like he had fallen heavily from a very high place. Before I had time to run back, Pierce went straight down and dunked to score points!! 19:7!
Adelman is about to take a timeout. It seems that Hassan is still not well adapted to the rhythm of the regular season. Especially when he encountered such a team, he seemed at a loss. There were boos again, loud but harsh here at Whiteside.
"Hayes, you replace Whiteside, we don't rush every round. There are also two passes now, one is Scola and the other is Zhou Yang"
Adelman was also a little anxious at this time. The game has only been played for a few minutes, and the opponent has already scored 19 points! Scola and Zhou Yang are still very good in terms of scoring! The game came back again, and they saw Ray Allen on the Boston side!
The other party has no leeway at all today and does not plan to leave it for the Rockets.
"Martin, you're always ready to catch the ball. If the other party has more than one person to defend me, it will also be an opportunity for us to come to the office" Zhou Yang and Martin said quickly, and the other party immediately nodded knowingly.
Although there are certain shortcomings, Martin is still a lot better than some defenders. Zhou Yang went to the frontcourt, and after Scola took over the basketball, he immediately started the European step and scored points after passing Mime!
Hassan was sitting alone on the bench at this time, feeling a slight tremor all over his body. The Rockets started scoring right after he got off the court, which was more of a blow and left him a little weak there watching the game.
Ray Allen took over the basketball after arriving in the front court and hit a three-point shot under Martin's defense! Martin thought that Ray Allen took two steps back to pass the ball, but he didn't expect Junzi Lei to shoot a long-distance three-pointer directly! The sturdy calves make Ray Allen look powerful!
39:21! Before the end of the first quarter, there were fans at the scene who began to leave the stadium one after another. The Rockets played a slumpy season today, and the Celtics seemed to start the playoff game with the playoffs on the way
Zhou Yang expected such a situation, but he didn't expect such a situation to come so quickly! The Rockets team actually has a lot of potential in his current opinion. But they may have to lose the battle for a while.
Hassan's recent contract has also been evident to management. He won't necessarily be able to get out of Hassan, and if Whiteside leaves the NBA, there's a good chance he'll play in the CBA. I heard the news that there are still two or three teams fighting to get Hassan recently!
Naturally, the salary is much higher than that of the Development Alliance.
Back in the second quarter, Brooks replaced Battier on the Rockets' side. The opposing side did not change the lineup. The Rockets really don't have any power forward and center right now.
The game opened up an 18-point gap in the first quarter. On the Rockets' side, there's actually a lot of pressure. It's at his home field again, and he actually opened up such a big score difference!
Hassan understands very well that it is not that he can improve his abilities if he is suddenly serious now. The Celtics and Lakers are completely two teams that play in two styles. In the last game, it seemed that the Lakers relied a little too heavily on Kobe
This made it easier for the Rockets in the game, because on the Lakers' side, except for Gasol who scored some points occasionally, basically the Lakers players passed the ball to Kobe. Kobe Bryant also had very few passes, and it was basically good to defend Kobe Bryant in that game.
That's not the case with the Celtics! Every one of their players seems to be very capable of playing! But they work together! It's scary!
"Zhou Yang, how is our Celtics this season?" Ray Allen said to him with a smile at this time.
In their opinion, no matter how powerful you Zhou Yang is, what can you do. What can you do against a team that is not strong overall. Maybe the playoffs won't make it. But the Green Shirts are different, after getting Meme, the team is like a tiger, they are completely different from the Rockets!
"I have to say it's a lot stronger! I hope the Heat will eliminate you in the Eastern Conference finals~" Zhou Yang said thoughtfully.
Lei Alun, who still felt good at first, suddenly heard what Zhou Yang said later, and immediately ran over and ignored Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang, this guy is really excessive! As soon as it came up, it talked about the sore spots of the Celtics this season.
Team Rocket has also figured it out now. What did the team have any hopes for yesterday, painting cakes, and not existing. Hassan has maintained such a form for a few games, and he is basically a three-line bench player. It's not in the rocket to say both.
The game came back immediately, Brooks received a pass from Scola and suddenly rushed in, and then was fanned by Pierce with a big hat, and Zhou Yang jumped directly after picking up the basketball and hit a three-point shot!
The game has been played to this extent, in fact, Zhou Yang is already thinking about how to make the Rocket team what to do in the future. The current Rockets seem to be the same day in the media, like the last two consecutive defeats saying that their season is bad, and two days ago they said that the Rockets have new hope, and a man who can replace Yao Ming has appeared!
As a result, Hassan was substituted for various mistakes today. The team's state is estimated to last for dozens of games before it can stop. But Zhou Yang thinks it's best to control it within 40 games, otherwise they will really hang in the air this season.
Since he was in college, since Zhou Yang got a big contract of $15 million a year from the Rockets this season, he would not choose to play "health basketball". He really wants the team to do well!
"We've stretched the margin to more than 30 points in this quarter!" Pierce said with a smile after shooting three points at this time! Today he feels good, and the whole team seems to be very hot!
"Stretching the difference to 30 points? It's a bit of a joke," Zhou Yang said to Pierce lightly at this time, a little unhappily.
"Young man, don't be too crazy. Winning the championship and thinking you're amazing? You didn't get a championship without O'Neal last season, believe it or not? Pierce was not very happy to return.
"Your team doesn't have Ray Allen and Kevin, it is estimated that you are going to other teams now," Zhou Yang finished speaking and ran away. This is the third player to be disgusted by him today. Garnett was put off the pitch by him. Ray Allen said a few words to him and left. And Pierce also felt that Zhou Yang, this guy was not so easy to bully.
Some veterans like to pick those stupid players and use psychological tactics to stimulate the other party, obviously Zhou Yang is not such a player. Scola took Zhou Yang's pass and played directly into 2+1! Kostic was fouled for the third time. Doug's disappointed expression on the sidelines was captured on camera.
Zhou Yang watched this scene, if the Celtics didn't play very well on the inside today, they might be able to close the point difference. Pierce was entangled by Zhou Yang immediately after he got the basketball!
There was a rare cheer at the scene!
"Ray Allen, you don't have to come here! I'm going to fight this kid! What about people? Pierce turned around and found that Zhou Yang was gone, and then turned his hand to Zhou Yang on the other side and grabbed the basketball and ran
Pierce chased after him in a bit of annoyance! Laughter from the fans was heard. It's not loud, but the rocket bench seat is very useful to listen to~
"Come and chase me~~" Zhou Yang turned around and stimulated Pierce when he was about to reach the basket. Then came a 360-degree dunk to score points!!
"Defend against Zhou Yang!!" Pierce shouted at his teammates with some anger.
