The game is about to begin.

In this game, TNT TV sent Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith to commentate, and at the same time, this playoffs, the domestic side is also very important.

CCTV is ready to broadcast the entire playoff game this year, especially the first-round playoffs between the Rockets and the Grizzlies.

And the broadcast team they sent is also the strongest, Xu Jicheng and Zhang Weiping commented the game, Su Qun as the on-site reporter, and a very professional broadcast team, a total of 16 people, occupying an important broadcast position in the General Motors Arena.

……

"The battle between the Grizzlies and the Rockets, this round of the series has received a lot of attention, but most of the reasons are related to Qiao Hai, in terms of strength, the Grizzlies and the Rockets have a grade gap, the Grizzlies are stronger, and they almost have an All-Star level starting lineup."

"So, in my opinion, there's nothing wrong with the end result of this series, the only problem is that the Rockets will be able to hold on to the Grizzlies for a few games......"

Charles Barkley is very unfavorable about the Rockets, and Kenny Smith agrees.

"In terms of strength, the gap between the Rockets and the Grizzlies is indeed not small, if the Rockets do not have a player to explode, or tactically completely suppressed, the Rockets in this series really have little chance."

"So, let's start with this game first and see if Qiao Hai has any good ideas."

……

"The starters on both sides are on the court, the starters on the Rockets' side are their regular starters, Da Yao is in the list, and he is partnered with Chris Anderson on the inside, and the outside three are Artest, Posey and Francis."

In CCTV's live broadcast room, Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng began to introduce the starters of the two teams.

"There have been some changes to the Grizzlies' starters, Lorencent Wright has started, and it seems that the old coach Hubie Brown is going to strengthen their defense, and they are still basically the starters, and the outside are Sean Marion, Maddie and Billups."

Lorenzen Wright started, and Qiao Hai didn't expect this change at all.

Stan Lefu also frowned: "Lorenzen Wright started, and the Grizzlies strengthened their defense in the restricted area, did they anticipate our tactical play in advance?" ”

Qiao Hai shook his head: "It's not a big problem, Lorenzen Lite's frame is not that strong, I guess Hubi's purpose is not to strengthen the defense in the penalty area, he wants to use Lorenzen Lite to consume Yao Ming." ”

Qiao Hai's analysis seems to have some truth, if you want to talk about the strength of the frame protection ability, Lorenzen Wright is really not much richer than Pau Gasol, the only advantage is that his movement speed is much faster, and his mobility is stronger.

……

The game started quickly, Yao Ming won with a jump ball, and the Rockets attacked first.

In the opening, the Rockets began to execute their set tactics.

Ron Artest got the ball, pushed it through the half, and handed it directly to Yao Ming.

The Grizzlies made a mistake in the opening game, Lorenzen Wright didn't fully defend it, he hesitated, and Yao Ming got a half-step vacant opportunity.

He chose to shoot directly.

"At the beginning, Yao Ming received the ball, Wright's defense was a little far behind, and Da Yao threw it directly!"

Swish!

"In! Da Yao's hand feels good, it's hot! ”

Zhang Weiping was a little excited and sighed, and Xu Jicheng also nodded constantly: "That's right, this ball is very crisp, and it is very simple!" Da Yao's mid-to-long-distance shooting, the grasp is getting bigger and bigger! ”

Yao Ming scored the opening goal, and the Rockets scored 2 points first.

The Grizzlies' offense, after the backcourt kickoff, Billups took the ball across the half court, and then began to run.

The Grizzlies' tactics are not as simple and crude as the Rockets, and they still have quite a lot of rotation on the outside, and after Billups controls the ball from the outside, he first passes a screen, and then hands the ball to Maddie, who passes another screen.

After the two sides rotated and ran, Maddie rushed inside, penetrated into the depths, and the rocket directly flanked.

After the pinching attack, Maddie forced her hand and snapped!

Yao Ming gave Maddie a big hat!

The General Motors arena was in shock, the bench seats of the rockets were boiling, and in the live broadcast room of CCTV, Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng were also shouting loudly.

After the hat, Yao Ming also grabbed the basketball, and then passed the ball to Steve Francis, and the Rockets directly counterattacked, looking unstoppable.

But the counterattack was quickly blocked by the Grizzly Bear's quick retreat, and Qiao Hai stood on the sidelines and shouted two sentences: "Control the rhythm!" Positional warfare! ”

So, the counterattack failed, and Steve Francis immediately pressed the rhythm down.

Then, Yao Ming slowly moved to the front court, still in a high position, this ball, Yao Ming sideways gave Francis a single block, Francis burst in.

The Grizzlies immediately flanked the attack, and in comparison, the Grizzlies' defense rotated fast enough, and they had a Sean Marion, who was extremely high-quality in helping to defend the defense.

In the face of the pinch attack, Steve Francis also knew that his chances of playing hard were not very good, and he passed the ball back directly.

Yao Ming, who blocked the dismantling on the other side, received the ball, and Lorencent Wright, who was defending him, immediately took a step forward, looking very afraid of Yao Ming's shot.

But Da Yao's choice is also very simple, take a side step and sway, then quickly go inside, and turn around to the basket, Lorenzen Wright has been completely out of position.

Facing Yao Ming, who attacked the basket, the Grizzlies hit again.

But this time, Yao Ming roared and chose to be strong! Against Lorenzen Wright and the general defense, he threw the basketball directly.

Beep beep!

The referee blows the whistle directly! Lorenzen Wright hitter foul!

At the same time, the basketball bounced off the box and bounced in!

"The ball is scored, and there are penalties!"

"Da Yao is so hard, this ball! In the face of two people, they can still fight strongly, and they play too well! ”

After two balls, the CCTV live broadcast room immediately turned into a Yao Blowing Conference.

In the GM Arena, Yao Ming's performance of scoring 4 points in a row also surprised everyone in the GM Arena.

Hubi Brown was very anxious, and he kept yelling and reprimanding Lorencent Wright who was defending Yao Ming.

Yao Ming hit a free throw, hit a three-point shot, and scored five points in a row in the opening game.

Then, the Grizzlies strengthened their defense against Yao Ming.

After strengthening the defense, Yao Ming immediately hit a tie, and the Grizzlies quickly chased the score.

On the Rockets' side, Steve Francis also made a foul, hitting one of two free throws, and soon, with 9 minutes and 32 seconds left in the first quarter, Sean Marion scored a three-pointer, and the Grizzlies overtook the score 7-6.

After the Grizzlies overtook the score, the game turned into a close matchup.

The Rockets didn't make a fuss on the defensive end, and under various individual defenses, the Grizzlies didn't have much difficulty scoring.

On the Rocket's side, Yao Ming was strictly guarded and quickly dumbed fire, but Yao Ming's dumb fire brought about the outbreak of the Rocket's entire team's attack.

The game came to the first official timeout and the two teams were tied.
