Rockets are tough.

But Adelman, as the head coach of the Rockets, also felt the terrible strength of the Kings, this team, under Wang Mingming's hand, has a new look, the offensive and defensive level has skyrocketed, and it looks like a Sacramento Spurs.

The Rockets were able to gain an advantage inside in the low post, but the Kings also had the advantage through quick defensive counterattacks and running shots.

In other words, in this short period of confrontation, the two sides can only blow each other up.

The score was also very close until halftime, and the Rockets only led the Kings by two points at 54-52.

The Rockets defend the Kings in the third quarter.

"One of the characteristics of Wang tomorrow's coaching is that he usually likes to try a wave of changes in the third quarter, and even order the players to rise up in the third quarter, in the hope that the score will be opened in the third quarter and create better conditions for the fourth quarter."

Adelman told his players to stay in shape in the third quarter and guard against the Kings' sudden outburst.

Wang Tomorrow really likes to exert force in the third quarter, and the third quarter can catch the opponent off guard and establish an advantage for entering the decisive stage of the fourth quarter.

And Wang Mingming believes that in the third quarter of the game, the players have full physical strength at halftime, and after adapting to the first half of the game, their physical functions and consciousness rhythm have reached the best state, which is very suitable for going all out.

Chris Bosh is the third quarter gentleman of the Kings handpicked by Wang Tomorrow.

It almost established Bosh as the Kings' leading scorer, and no one could shake his status.

Bosh is really strong, and the ball quotient is high, Wang Mingming's tactics can be clearly understood, not only can be integrated into the formation, do the team's attack point, response point, but also can be pulled out alone, holding the ball to attack or misplaced single eat.

In the third quarter of the game with the Rockets, Bosh broke out.

First, he hit two mid-range shots in a row, and then broke through Millsap with the ball, and scored 2+1 under the basket to help the Kings extend their lead to double digits.

Adelman couldn't help but sigh.

"When Chris Bosh was in the Raptors, he was just an All-Star level player, and now under Wang Mingming, it seems that he has changed so bravely."

His emotion was quite a feeling of "this is not a crime of war", and it can only be said that Bosh's outburst was too abrupt.

When Millsap heard Adelman's compliment, he was annoyed and wondered why the coach kept raising the prestige of others.

He couldn't hold back, and after a timeout, he faced Chris Bosh, advanced strongly, and caused a one-on-one foul on Bosh to create a tough kill.

Millsap then turned and crushed Bosh and used his strength to squeeze him away, gain space to shoot, and throw his shot.

This time he didn't shoot, but he flew over by himself, and with a slight touch, he grabbed a frontcourt rebound and scored the ball.

The morale of the Rockets was greatly boosted, and in the midst of the strengths and weaknesses, the score was pulled back again.

In order to deal with the outburst of the Kings in the third quarter, Yao Ming also changed his half-rested state, strengthened the low-post offense in the third quarter, and with his powerful turnaround jumper and small hook hand, it was difficult for Tyson Chandler to completely limit.

The rocket made a strong effort inside, and finally tied the score.

This then proceeded to the fourth quarter.

When the two teams were almost the same, they were entangled until the last moment.

Wang Tomorrow felt that the Kings had not been advantaged by the home court, and in the final moments, Millsap made a strong attack under the basket and blew Tyson Chandler for his fifth foul.

"The whole game was a foul, huh?"

Wang Mingming shouted dissatisfiedly and shouted at the referee, "Keep your eyes open and take a good look, is this a foul?" This is a reasonable collision zone! This is a normal confrontation in the NBA! ”

The referee ignored it, and the audience booed.

Millsap glanced at Wang Mingming with a smile, and then scored two free throws steadily, and the Rockets were 101-99, not only breaking 100 first, but also overtaking the score.

"Chris has already scored 29 points, Chris is in good shape, it is better to let Chris play a dozen." Michael Curry suggested softly.

"How?" The king will ask tomorrow.

Michael Curry thought for a while, and then said: "Anyway, Tyson can't prevent Yao Ming, it's better to remove Tyson, let Chris serve as the fifth position, and then use Ron as the fourth position, the guard and Chris block and dismantle, Yao Ming's footwork ability is not good, he can't keep up with Chris, and the misplaced offense is more effective." ”

When the king heard this, his eyes lit up.

What Michael said makes sense, at this time Tyson has already committed 5 fouls, and he is tied, so it is better to let Bosh, who has committed 3 fouls, play the No. 5 position, one big and four small, and also strengthen his outside projection ability.

Wang followed Michael Curry's advice tomorrow, and in the ensuing timeout, replaced Tyson, who had not yet recovered to 100 percent, and replaced Francesco Garcia in the No. 3 position.

The outside world thought that the Kings were protecting Tyson from being sent off, but they didn't notice that the Kings quietly completed the entire formation change.

In Wang Mingming's arrangement, Bosh understood the meaning of Wang Mingming.

The suspension ends.

Kidd and Bosh block and Bosh take the ball to the basket.

Adelman didn't expect Wang to be so bold tomorrow, even the traditional center is gone, such an attack is equivalent to all the pressure on Bosh, if Bosh's attack is not effective, he will give up the game to win.

Yao Ming's light flashed, moved sideways, and desperately stared at Bosh.

Bosh came to a sudden halt and shot two points long in the high post.

"Huh!"

Hit.

Millsap met Artest and found that Artest had a tough defense and couldn't score for a while, and the high lob ball was passed to Yao Ming in the low post.

At this time, Yao Ming's physical strength was mostly consumed, and as soon as he got the ball, the Kings immediately became crazy bags.

Yao Ming was assigned to the outside players, and the outside players, under the instructions of Adelman, did not have absolute vacant opportunities and did not shoot, continued to drop the ball, and chose a safe inside attack.

Yao Ming took the ball, leaned his back against Bosh, turned around, held the double bag, and gently hooked the ball in.

"That's dominance!" The Houston media is boiling, and Yao Ming has also scored 30 points, playing the first place in the West, playing an extremely tough posture and performance.

At 1 minute and 22 seconds, Bosh hit again from mid-range, and the two sides tied at 103.

At this time, Yao Ming turned his back and shook Bosh and hit a pick-and-roll to break the deadlock again and give the Rockets a two-point lead.

The king asked for a timeout.

"We're doing a wave of high pick-and-rolls, and all the players have to be involved." Wang Tomorrow drew a tactic on the tactical board, and there were more specific running positions, and halfway through the drawing, he suddenly raised his head vigilantly and looked outside the crowd that surrounded him.

Millsap didn't eavesdrop, Wang Ming let out a sigh, the tactics at this time were too critical, if they were overheard, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The timeout ends and the Kings serve on the sideline.

"What tactics did Coach Wang Ming arrange? Can the unfavorable situation be reversed? Everyone stared at the field, and in the broadcast camera, Wang Mingming, who was contemplative and serious, was given a single shot many times.

It was Kidd who served the ball, and Kidd stood on the sidelines while directing the players.

"Francisco, I'm on the wrong side." Kidd reminded.

Garcia hurriedly turned his head, and then showed a look of surprise, and even the rookie DeMar DeRozan was much calmer than him at this time, and stood correctly in the elbow area according to Wang's arrangement tomorrow.

DeRozan framed the frame, and Chris Bosh waved his hands, as if he wanted DeRozan to block and dismantle.

"Toot ~"

With a whistle, Garcia started running first.

The Kings' setup was an elbow double screen, where the wall and the running players covered each other, and Garcia turned around and went from the baseline to the line, which was the first time to catch the ball after borrowing the wall cover.

But Garcia only feintmed, and Kidd finished the ball, rushed into the field, and took the ball from Garcia's hand.

At this point, the seemingly chaotic movement in the elbow area gradually became clear, and DeRozan used Chris Bosh and Ron Artest to double cover and cut to the basket.

Artest blocked DeRozan's defender and turned around to cover for Chris Bosh.

After Garcia passed to Kidd, he ran back to the baseline, and Chris Bosh formed a cross-run with Garcia when he came out.

Kidd dribbled to the top of the arc and saw the overall situation on the field at a glance with his gaze.

The key is still Yao Ming, Chris Bosh and Artest, no matter which one, Yao Ming's footsteps can't keep up, Bosh withdraws from the elbow area, taking away the attention of the rocket, and Artest suddenly goes down again.

The basketball suddenly flew to the basket.

Artest jumped high and took the basketball with both hands to complete the air catch.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by the players who were running, DeRozan, Garcia and Bosh touched the Rockets so many nerves that Artest, as a human wall, alertly cut to the basket again, and there was no one to defend it, giving up two points.

There was a deafening cheer from the fans at the scene, and the pitch was much louder than at the beginning.

Dunks are the hallmark of the NBA, and the players have completed such exquisite tactical coordination, which is much better to watch than last season, and the more fans watch it, the more they like it, and it is easy to become a die-hard fan in the region.

Artest let out a roar when he landed, and then high-fived Kidd in celebration.

Both of them are in their thirties, but this time they are really comfortable, Yao Ming can't catch up, and can only watch Artest complete the empty pick-up.

Artest felt like he had completed a key dunk on the head of the "league's No. 1 insider", and his self-confidence exploded at once.

105 flat.

The mountains roared and the tsunami cheered, and the momentum of the Rockets players was impacted.

Yao Ming singled Bosh in the low post, and the Kings did not hesitate to choose the bag, Yao Ming gave the ball to Millsap on the outside, Millsap clicked, and then held the ball and rushed inside.

Millsap strode over, and the force of a bull slammed Artest away.

Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly heard an exclamation.

"Be careful!"

Before the words fell, a vicious wind suddenly rose behind his head, and DeRozan shivered, and wanted to temporarily collect the ball, but where could the ball be so easily recovered.

"Smack!"

A big swarthy hand slapped abruptly on his exposed basketball, and with an unstoppable momentum, hit the rebound.

Pegboard hat!

The rebounding basketball Rockets also didn't catch it, and amid the exclamations and cheers of the fans in the court, the Kings once again took the initiative on the court.

In 35 seconds, Kidd controlled the ball and glanced at Wang Mingming, who shook his head and signaled them to attack the ball first.

At this time, the Kings only have one chance left to take a timeout, and the king, like Adelman, is ready to use this timeout in the most critical place.

In other words, whoever falls behind first will definitely call a timeout.

Kidd narrowed his eyes and leaned down.

Artest came out and received the ball in the elbow area, a very beautiful fake shot.

didn't really shake Millsap away, but just relied on his strong power to punch in, crushing Millsap, Millsap was amazing, and forced Artest to almost make a mistake.

Artest turned and passed the ball back to the middle distance Bosh.

"Change the guard!"

Millsap let out a loud shout, reminding Yao Ming that if he couldn't guard against Bosh, let him in.

The defense at the last moment is nothing more than a bit of gambling, and Millsap expects that at this time, Artest will definitely not choose a three-point shooting that is not particularly sure, so he boldly defended Bosh for Yao Ming.

At this time, the old demon Kidd ran under the basket.

After everyone pulled away, Kidd sneaked to the basket, Bosh's eyes lit up, and a straight plug was passed to Kidd under the basket.

At this time, the Rockets' inside and outside lines were pulled apart, the inside line was empty, and Brooks was behind Kidd, but the two had a significant height gap.

Brooks couldn't defend Kidd at all, and Kidd was like a center, grabbing the basketball was a turn, jumping and releasing the ball.

In the confrontation, the ball is scored.

Adelman's face changed for a moment, and finally he sighed and asked for a timeout.

In 21.7 seconds, the king's key ball almost forced the Rockets to Liangshan.

Wang will be deployed tomorrow, replaced Tyson Chandler at this time, replaced Garcia, and returned to the original starting lineup, which is also the best offensive and defensive lineup of the current Kings.

The suspension ends.

Adelman forwent Princeton in favor of a simpler high-post pick-and-roll.

After the blocking, the target is to stuff Yao Ming in the low post or in the penalty area.

At this time, Yao Ming is the most consistent scorer of the Rockets, even if Millsap, who was entrusted with important tasks by Adelman, cannot be compared with him.

Chandler rested for most of the game, full of energy, and under Wang's instructions tomorrow, chose to go around the front to defend.

At the critical moment, no one dared to hang the ball, and Yao Ming couldn't catch the basketball.

Brooks' mind was hot, and when he saw Kidd, who had withdrawn himself one step away, his brain turned around, and he simply came by himself!

As soon as his gaze changed, Kidd was already experienced, and Brooks wanted to shoot, but Kidd's long arms covered the sky and felt like all his shooting space was blocked.

He was almost forced to make a breakthrough.

In the breakthrough, Brooks only had the basket in his sights, and in the middle between him and the basket, the other players could not be seen.

Brooks caught in the crowd and made a hard shot, and the basketball jumped high to dodge everyone's blocks, but it was also outrageous, smashing and bounce off the basket.

He was knocked out of the line in the confrontation.

A group of people stood under the basket and fought hand-to-hand, and they didn't know who touched the ball in the end, and the basketball flew out of the bottom line.

It doesn't matter who says it, the referee wants to watch the replay.

Yao Ming's face was ugly, and although the honest man also pointed to the front, he seemed to know something.

The replay showed that the basketball had changed its line at Yao Ming's fingertips, which became the final conclusion of the referee after watching it many times, and the ball was awarded to the king with 5.7 seconds left.

The Rockets could only choose foul tactics, and Wang replaced them with a group of shooters who were over-accurate in their free throws.

Udri eventually walked to the free-throw line as a representative and hit both free throws.

The Rockets' last offense didn't make much sense, not to mention that Battier missed a three-pointer, and the Rockets finally lost to the Kings 105-109.

Wang Tomorrow smiled and shook hands with Adelman.

But Adelman was unconvinced, losing to Wang Mingming, how can he be convinced by people who are dozens of years younger than him?

Whether Adelman is convinced or not, defeating the Rockets, the Kings have further stabilized their record as the first in the West and even the first in the league.

Two weeks after the start of the game, the Kings, under the leadership of Wang Mingming, showed their fangs, dominated the Taiping Division, and threatened the Alliance.
