"The Great Wall of China!" After watching these rounds, Smith couldn't help but exclaim.

In the past period of time, the Rockets have completely relied on Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian to play an advantage at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

This is no longer a joke, but a real compliment!

It was also with the excellent play of the two on the inside that the Rockets led the Bucks by 8 points 27-19 with 2 minutes left at the end of the first quarter.

The two sides began to enter the substitution period.

The fans at the scene breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

The problem of the Rockets' No. 4 position is the problem of the starters, and as long as they survive the opening, it will no longer be a problem.

On the Rockets' side, Gasol Jr., Scola, Petrus, and Sun Yue's luxury bench lineup appeared.

In contrast, the Bucks' side looked a little shabby, because the bench lineup was not strong, and at this time Millsap and Reed were still on the court, and the remaining three people were Villanueva, Francisco Elson and Tyronn Lue.

On the Rockets' offense, Gasol Jr. responded at the free-throw line and sent a second pass to Petrus, who made a three-pointer.

With the turmoil at the start of the season behind him, Petrus is back to his last season's level.

The Bucks attacked, and Lue advanced to the front court with the ball and handed the ball to Reed.

Reed was caught in the bag as soon as he received the ball, and there was no chance to shoot or break through.

As a last resort, he had no choice but to pass the ball to Millsap, the inside line.

Millsap took the ball, and in a similar situation as Reed, Gasol Jr. stretched out his long arm to wrap up in advance, not giving him the opportunity to play with his back easily, and also blocking his vision of passing the ball inside.

The Rockets are focusing on Millsap and Reed.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene, the Bucks have changed their coach in the new season, but it is unrealistic to suppress Tang Tian tactically.

Seeing that the offensive time was approaching, Millsap tried to give the ball to the inside several times, but his height limited his passing vision, and in the end, he had to give the ball to the outside Villanueva.

Villanueva received the ball and hit the three-pointer at the buzzer, and Petrus flew to interfere.

"Huh!"

With a crisp sound, the goal went in!

Millsap turned around and slapped Villanueva on the back, this fairy ball was quite morale-boosting.

The Rockets' offense, teammates opened up space, and Gasol Jr. held the ball and hit Elson with his back, a big hook hand after turning.

"Bang!"

The ball hit the rebound, bounced off and crashed into the net.

As his status in the team increases, Gasol Jr.'s performance is becoming more and more courageous.

The Bucks' offense, Reid commanded from the outside, Millsap received the ball and attracted the pack, and on the weak side Elson blocked one for Villanueva, who ran out and ran to the high post, and Millsap's pass followed.

"Huh!"

It's another hollow shot.

Villanueva scored 5 points in a row!

"Perfect performance, Charlie has the strength to squeeze Yi to the bench in the second half of last season, you must know that Yi Ke is the No. 6 show!" Smith exclaimed.

The Rockets' offense didn't work, and the Bucks' offensive end Verranyuwa sent a pass, and Reed received the ball and scored another three-pointer.

The Bucks went on a 6-2 run to push the score to 25-29.

There was a stirring of fans at the scene.

Villanueva's outburst came very suddenly, he has always been the main No. 4 position, and he was also a starter last season, this season with the entry of Millsap, he was squeezed to the bench, but he didn't expect to play better and better, breaking a bit of a "mini" Odom.

With Villanueva's excellent play, the Bucks played well in the bench period, and when the main team returned, the two sides fought fiercely, and at halftime, the Rockets only led by a narrow 52-46 advantage.

"Yi played a surprise start, but his former substitute Charlie also got better, and the game was really interesting." At half-time, Barkley said with a smile.

The more intense the game, the more energetic his commentary became.

I don't know if I heard his explanation, but when I came back in the second half, the Bucks coach directly changed the starter, and Villanueva, who played well in the first half, directly replaced Alexander as the starting small forward.

This also means that Yi Jianlian and his former rival Villanueva are directly on top!

It's really getting more and more interesting.

At the beginning of the second half, the Bucks attacked first, Reid and Bogut played a block and dismantle, Millsap made a basket to contain the defense, and Reed took advantage of the situation to distribute the ball to the outside Villanueva, who shot again with three points.

"Huh!"

Villanueva returned the three points and he carried the excellent first half into the second half!

The Rockets attacked, Yao Ming responded to the free throw line, directly distributed the ball outside Maddie, and Maddy made a three-point shot.

"Bang!"

Maddie's hand tonight was very average, and the ball was still iron.

However, Yao Ming was still in hot form, pressing Bogut to grab the offensive rebound, and seeing Villanueva shrink back, he turned his head and shot the ball at the same time.

The ball was like a cannonball, and it was thrown to Yi Jianlian in the bottom corner for the first time.

Yi Jianlian catches the ball and shoots.

The ball crosses a high parabola in the air.

"Huh!"

anser.ball！

Yi Jianlian's three-point shot also scored!

The cheers at the scene shook the sky.

Yi Jianlian's performance was really surprising to them, where is this still the space Yi they knew last season, this is a veritable No. 6 show!

The Bucks' offense, they obviously wanted to create opportunities for Villanueva, but the Rockets' rotation was in place, and Battier clung to it and didn't give it a chance.

Millsap adjusted his offensive strategy at this time and scored a layup directly after receiving the ball.

Last season, he was able to make a big kill in the finals, and it was not just because of his back play.

The Rockets attacked, Yao Ming caught the ball under the basket to attract the double bag, and his vision was completely disturbed, but he directly hit the ball and passed to the right.

"Bang!"

After the ball was passed, Yi Jianlian appeared directly in the receiving position and took the ball to score with an easy wipe of the board.

"Tacit understanding, we forgot that they are teammates in the Chinese national team!" Smith was amazed by Yao Ming's passing ability and was also impressed by the tacit understanding between him and Yi Jianlian.

"Yes, it does require a lot of tacit understanding." Barkley also had to admit this at this time.

Back on the defensive end, Millsap repeated his old tricks, shook off Battier on a beautiful counterrun, and accelerated to the basket after receiving the ball.

However, for this old teammate and old partner, Yao Ming's judgment this time was very accurate, and he blocked the basket in time.

Millsap bumped into his arms, but he reacted quickly enough to make a high throw before stopping the ball.

The soft touch makes the ball draw a high parabola upwards.

There was a stir at the scene, and the ball looked like it was going to go in!

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped up from behind Yao Ming.

Yi!

He quickly retreated to the inside line, and then used the bounce against the sky to jump directly over Yao Ming's head like a cloud.

"Smack!"

Before the ball reaches its highest point, it directly slaps the ball fan back!

Clean! Pretty! The visuals explode!

The scene exploded directly.

"The Great Wall of China!" Barkley finally couldn't help it at this time, and shouted inertly.
