Chapter 350: It's even more difficult
There were only a few fans in attendance in Houston, and TNT also conducted interviews with fans before the game.
The first to be interviewed was a sexy beauty with big wavy blue eyes, Buckley, a fat man who conducted an interview himself.
After a few steps, the fat man grabbed the hand of the big wavy girl and asked enthusiastically.
- Beautiful lady, thank you very much for this interview with TNT, you have a very nice name, right?
- Haha, yes, my name is Natasha.
- Natasha, are you a local? Well, I mean you're a fan of the Rockets?
- Of course, my whole family is a Rockets fan!
INTERVIEWER There are a lot of vacant seats at the Toyota Center today, what do you think is the reason?
- Probably because the Rockets are going to lose today, no one can beat Hu's Bobcats, they haven't lost in the playoffs.
- Give you a few quick choice questions, you can't think, you can only say the answer the first time. Coach Hu Qingniu is also coach Van Gundy.
——Hu Qingniu~.
- Wade or Hardaway.
- Hardaway!
......
The game is ongoing.
"Whew-" The sneaker slammed against the floor with a screeching sound, and Wade suddenly changed hands in front of him on the left side of the three-point line and took a sharp step along the left side, instantly pulling Hardaway half a seat. Dazhi, who had finished covering, didn't stop for a second, and immediately turned around and walked down towards the paint area. Dazhi's running took away Yao Ming, and only Hardaway was left.
"Shot, or breakaway?" With a calm face, Hardaway's mind quickly judged that every tiny movement of Wade on the other side was his target.
The shoulders are not moving, and the feet are turning bare! This is a breakthrough!
Hardaway used his years of experience to finally get Wade right at the moment when he was about to start, and one step ahead of him allowed him to keep up with Wade's tiger-like figure. Battier takes a step forward and is about to form a double blockade!
The line was blocked, Wade knew that something was wrong, flicked his left hand, and passed the basketball to the ground from the gap between the two that could not be filled in time, and went straight to the hands of Josh, who was on standby. The small forward who took over the basketball did not hesitate to hold the ball and strode towards the penalty area, and once again the physical advantage was brought into full play, and the momentum was so fierce that Battier did not have time to complete the defense. Dazhi, who went down to the penalty area, struggled to entangle Da Yao, so that Da Yao failed to adjust his feet in time to protect the basket, and Josh jumped up and drew a half-arc with his arm to pick the basketball into the net basket.
"Concise and efficient overall attack! Look at Wade's handling of the pass and Josh's impact on the basket, all in one go without any pause! At the same time, Dazhi's downward card position and Ariza and Tony Allen's outside pull also played a role that cannot be ignored, and all the members of the Bobcat team have eaten this kind of blocking and dismantling attack very thoroughly! Kenny Smith exclaimed enthusiastically, not minding being criticized for his subjective bias, "Wade has just the right amount of space and skill to pass the ball, and such accurate and timely ground passes are not something that any point guard can pass." He didn't look at the high post on the right side at all when he broke through, but he was able to clearly understand Josh's movements, which definitely played a role in the tacit understanding and excellent overall view that he had cultivated over a long period of time. This was unthinkable last season, when Wade was regarded as a super rookie and a Blade warrior, but this season when it comes to the point guard position, he has gradually developed good playmaking skills. ”
"Let me take a look at the stats for tonight's game, is Wade already getting a pretty big double-double?" Barkley motioned to the live broadcaster to show the Charlotte point guard's stats tonight, and then looked at it intently, "Sure enough, with that assist just now, Wade has 8 points, 10 assists, 6 rebounds and 2 steals in the half...... Guys, it looks like he's going to have a chance to challenge for 20+20 or a triple-double tonight! This is quite a rare achievement in the Grand Finals! ”
Hardaway couldn't get anything in his ears, he just stared at the score of the two teams on the big screen overhead, 55:40, the Bobcats already led by 15 points, and the half was about to end. Although Hardaway and Battier have suppressed Wade's offensive firepower to a minimum in this game, Wade's passing was beyond his expectations, and his cool head and imaginative passing made Wade have written 10 assists on the statistical table in the half, and the Bobcats' offense not only did not stagnate, but blossomed everywhere. With the exception of Tony Allen, all of them scored in the open game.
Wade, who was standing in front of the baseline, took a long breath, he didn't rest much throughout the first half, and he had been leading the team to fight, speaking of which, Wade, the Bobcats' most offensive and organizational person was Wade, which also made him dare not rest easily. In addition, the Rockets' tactical execution of restricting him today is very impressive, Hardaway's full-court entanglement, Battier's focus on co-defense, and Yao Ming's netting on the inside, even with Wade's strength, he must be afraid of three points. Fortunately, the teammates' really strong form tonight has kept the Bobcats suppressing the situation, and if it weren't for the Rockets' good offensive efficiency, I am afraid that they would have been completely destroyed in the first half.
Hardaway, who received the serve, slowly dribbled the ball through the half, Yao Ming did not ask for the ball to attack, and he himself knew that he could not defeat the Bobcats by himself, so he gave up the offensive power to Hardaway to deal with, and he just ran with the defenders to open up the space.
Hardaway motioned for Battier to come over and cover, and he dribbled from the right to get into the paint. Because the Bobcats have the league's best outside defense this season, he will always subconsciously choose to score in the paint, or at least hope to get foul shots. However, it is not easy to escape the joint strangulation of Tony Allen, Ariza, Wade, and Josh, these four physically talented macho men have their own set on the defensive end, which is also the capital of the Bobcats' outside defense.
Ariza immediately let go of Battier's defense, and at the same time, Wade quickly squeezed through the cover and pounced, they have become accustomed to the offensive characteristics of the Rockets, anyway, as long as they contain Hardaway. Hardaway was really tired of the Charlotte's defensive strategy, two young men with strong bodies and nimble feet followed him like evil spirits, and there was also a big man in the box who was very good at making up blocks, and the Bobcats' defense was like a three-dimensional steel concrete fortification, impermeable.
James, who is in his heart, doesn't care about physical consumption, he uses his foot to pull the speed to the limit instantly, which is a very dangerous action for him who has been seriously injured, before Ariza comes over, he suddenly turns around along the outside of a dashing pull ball, and pretends to break through the layup with a lost step at his feet, after deceiving Wade and Ariza, he pauses suddenly, withdraws with a big jump, pulls up his body, leans back, and shoots extremely standardly!
The ball went in, and the man fell to the ground!
It's hard, it's so hard!
