On Nov. 4, the Rockets played back-to-back games against the Nets.

As a disciple of Qiao Hai, Byron Scott's Nets are already one of the strongest teams in the East.

The star of the house, Jason Kidd, the second is Richard Jefferson, who was selected by the Nets with the Rockets' draft pick, and the third is Kenyon Martin, the top pick in 2000.

Add to that Krykitels, who is in the same class as Kobe, and Jason Collins, who was the first to come out publicly, and this is the starting point of this Nets.

Speaking of Richard Jefferson, who has a lot of connections with the Rockets, this has to mention the most NC trade made by Carol Dawson before Qiao Hai took over the Rockets.

In the 2001 draft, Carol Dawson traded the 13th pick in the first round, the 18th pick in the first round and the 23rd pick in the first round from the Nets for the seventh pick in the first round.

Then, the Rockets used the seventh pick in the first round to draft Eddie Griffin, a power forward who had been sent away by Qiao Hai a long time ago, and the power forward who had great problems both mentally and off-court and strength.

The Nets used the 13th pick in the first round to select Richard Jefferson, a small forward who averaged 15+6 per game last season, Jason Collins with the 18th pick in the first round, a pseudo-starting center who started 66 games last season, and Brandon Armstrong with the 23rd pick in the first round.

But just by summarizing this, Carol Dawson's deal is already a loss to Grandma's family.

Compared with Qiao Haiyi, the gap was immediately highlighted.

……

In the master-apprentice battle with Byron Scott, the Rockets also had no pressure.

In the last game against the Bulls, because it was easy to win, the main team of the Rockets almost didn't play much, and Yao Ming only played 21 minutes.

So, in this game, everyone including Yao Ming was full of fitness.

The Rockets are all in the game, and Qiao Hai is a coach who is extremely good at dealing with Jason Kidd.

When Jason Kidd played for the Phoenix Suns, Qiao Hai found a way to deal with Kidd, and the Grizzlies in those two years, as long as they faced the Suns led by Jason Kidd, they could directly guarantee victory.

Even now, Qiao Hai's approach to Jason Kidd remains the same.

"One-on-one strangled Jason Kidd, didn't let go, focused on his passing route, and didn't let him successfully organize the offensive ......"

Qiao Hai used this trick against Kidd, who made the current Kidd shoot very badly.

In this game, Gary Payton's task was to target Jason Kidd, and the responsibility of the outside offense was also handed over to Wade by Qiao Hai.

……

In the first quarter of the game, Wade, who was the team's main offensive point on the outside, performed quite well, hitting 2 shots and 2 times, one of which was a three-pointer.

It does seem that Wade is gradually adapting to this league.

But the performance of the other players of the Rockets was very bad, Gary Payton shot 0 of 4 and scored 2 points on free throws, and Yao Ming was also annoyed by Jason Collins' defense around the front, only shooting once in a single quarter, hitting once and scoring 2 points.

So much so that at the end of the first quarter, the Rockets were 22:21, only leading the Nets by 1 point.

In the second quarter of the game, Qiao Hai continued to let the main force play, trying to help the main force get back into shape.

But in the second quarter, Yao Ming shot 1 of 5, and Gary Payton made another 4 shot of 0, and in this quarter, the Rockets' offense was completely dumb, scoring only 15 points in a single quarter.

At halftime, the Rockets trailed the Nets by seven points, 37-44.

On the opposite side of the Rockets coach's bench, Byron Scott raised his chin proudly and squeezed his eyes at Qiao Hai, who won half a game in the matchup.

Qiao Hai was not angry, he smiled and shook his head.

In fact, the rocket's counterattack was in the second half, and in the first half, Qiao Hai left time for the main force to find the state, and seeing that the state of the main force could not be found, Qiao Hai was going to be a real gun!

……

At halftime, Qiao Hai first studied the technical statistics at the end of the half.

Gary Payton was 0 in 8 and Yao Ming was 2 in 6, it seems that Glove Payton can no longer be used, but Yao Ming can try to play again.

After thinking about it for a while, Qiao Hai decided to give the ball to Yao Ming and Wade in the second half, and play the young man's two-person turn, as long as he can open the offense, the rocket still has a chance to turn the tables.

……

In the second half, the game began.

The Nets attacked first, Jason Kidd led the offense with the ball, and after a few steps inside, gave the ball to Bryan Scala Brian on the wing.

White Mambas Calabrien, who was the mascot for most of his career, hit a long-range two-pointer that missed Chris Anderson's interference.

Immediately, Yao Ming grabbed the rebound and stuffed the ball to Wade.

Wade held the ball to the front court, stopped the ball at the top of the arc, and waited until Yao Ming fell high and after a single block, Wade went straight in.

In this game, the Nets' defense of the Rockets was in place, and for Wade, the Nets' defensive strategy was to let Wade shoot and strangle Wade's breakthrough.

Therefore, as soon as Wade broke through, Krykitels, who singled him out, couldn't stop him, and the Nets immediately caught it.

In this ball, Wade was caught in the middle, quickly hit the ground, passed a advance amount, and gave it to the basket.

Chris Anderson received the basketball, and pulling it up was a violent dunk!

With a bang, the rocket's bench was boiling!

"Chris Anderson dunked and the Rockets recovered 2 points!"

The Nets' offensive round, still Jason Kidd's ball, he still took a step inside like the last offensive round, and then was stopped by Gary Payton.

The Rockets only put Kidd's pass on the left side, so Kidd continued to split the ball on the left.

It was still Brian Scala Brian who caught the ball, and he took the shot when he received the ball, and with a bang, it was still iron.

Chris Anderson grabbed the rebound and gave it to Gary Payton.

Payton advanced through the half court with the ball, and gave the ball directly to Wade at the top of the arc, and it was still Wade who took the ball at the top of the arc, and it was still Yao Ming's single block.

After a single block, Wade hit big with a small and went straight inside.

The Nets' defense suddenly surrounded them, and there were multiple open spaces on the outside, and Wade jumped up and flicked the ball out.

It was Gary Payton who was 0-of-8 from the field in the first half.

Payton Sr. played very reasonably, he knew that he didn't feel good in this game, so, after receiving the ball, Payton rushed straight up.

Starting from the sideline, a diagonal sprint, combined with a backdribble, shook off Kidd who turned back to defend in one step.

Rushing to the basket, Gary Payton raised his hand for a close-range layup, and the goal was finally scored!

After shooting 0-of-8, Gary Payton finally scored his ninth goal! Would this be a good start? ”

After this goal, the difference quickly narrowed to 3 points!

The Nets' offense, Kidd was completely restricted, and Byron Scott signaled off the court, so the ball was given to Richard Jefferson.

Jefferson singled out a shot, and his mid-range jumper hit the iron first.

But Jason Collins grabbed the offensive rebound and passed the ball to the outside again, and Richard Jefferson took the ball and shot again, this time finally hit!

The Rockets' offense, Wade broke through with the ball and was stealed, getting a turnover.

The Nets played a wave of fast breaks, and Kidd finally scored 2 points, 41:48, and the difference suddenly became 7 points.

But in the next wave of offense, Wade learned a lesson, after passing Yao Ming's single block on the outside, as soon as there was an opportunity, he immediately made a quick stop and jumped directly!

With a bang, in the third quarter, Wade scored a mid-range shot.

But turning around, Kidd broke through, found an opportunity on the right side, and the ball split Krykitels, who hit a three-pointer, and the difference actually widened again.

The point difference continues to expand, but Qiao Hai is not in a hurry, because change is not an overnight thing, the rocket is moving towards the good side, and now what Qiao Hai needs to do is to turn this good momentum into an advantage in the score.

The Rockets' offense, Yao Ming once again gave Wade a single block.

The Nets directly surrounded Wade, Yao Ming went down, received Wade's pass, made a mid-range jumper, and hit it with a bang!

The Nets' offense, Bryan Scala Bryan shot again.

After the Rockets grabbed the rebound, they played a wave of counterattacks, and in the counterattack, Chris Anderson, who was extremely fast, received the ball and dunked and scored 2 points.

The Rockets are finally starting to close the score......
