Chapter 700: Finals vs. Rockets (4/5)

"The Bobcats won the race! At 95:78, they won the Pistons by 17 points! ”

At the end of the game, Charles Barkley in the commentary box shouted loudly.

"In the first five games of the series, the Bobcats and the Pistons had dealings and played very anxiously, in the sixth game, the Bobcats suddenly made a force and directly ended this round of the series!"

"The total score is 4:2, the series did not enter the tie-break, and the Bobcats won the sixth game and directly advanced to the finals!"

McBrin took over the topic and shouted at the top of his lungs as well.

The reason is that at the end of the game, Auburn Hills Palace Stadium suddenly booed, and Detroit fans booed wildly, but in the face of a 17-point loss, the whole stadium was only booed.

Qiao Hai silently glanced at the arena, all kinds of cursing before the game had disappeared, and those fans who really had no quality had already withdrawn from the stadium when the game ended in suspense.

The Pistons fans stayed in the stadium, but they also booed from the team, dissatisfied with the team's performance in this game, and unhappy with the Bobcats' crazy celebration at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

"The Bobcats are now Eastern Conference champions! They are now champions! ”

After the game, the Bobcats lifted the trophy of the Eastern Championship, and Qiao Hai's Bobcats, in the second year of the team, made another breakthrough, and they entered the finals!

"Reaching the finals in the second year of team history, Qiao Hai has created a myth again!" McBlin couldn't help but sigh: "His team-building ability is too strong, it's completely inhuman!" ”

"Now we can say that Qiao Hai can build any team into a championship-caliber superpowerhouse, including the Portland Trail Blazers, who are the bottom of the regular season this season!"

The East Final is over, and the opponent of the Bobcats finals has already been released.

"The Eastern Conference Finals are over, and the Finals have been staged, and the Bobcats will face the Houston Rockets who defeated the Mavericks 4-1 in the Western Conference Finals on the Finals!"

"Qiao Hai against the old master, this will be a showdown between Mars and the Earth!"

……

The finals will begin on June 6, and before that, the Bobcats have a three-day break.

The Bobcats flew directly from Detroit to Houston.

On the first day in Houston, Qiao Hai only scheduled recovery training and planned for the next two days.

"On the second day of tactical training, on the third day of adaptive training, we have to get into the rhythm of the finals as soon as possible."

In the finals against the rocket, Qiao Hai's confidence is insufficient, this rocket is too strong, although Stan Lefu is not as good as him in command, but the tactical aspect is getting more and more perfect.

The current Rockets are already a multi-core lineup, point guard Raff Alston, scoring guard Wade, small forward Ron Artest, big forward Boris Dio, center Yao Ming, and offensively, Stan Lefu directly used Boris Dior to connect Wade and Yao Ming.

This Rocket's offense no longer has any shortcomings, there are breakthroughs and long-range shots, and there are also a lot of single scoring points on the offensive end.

In terms of the Bobcats' defensive ability, maybe they can limit the individual offense of two or three Rockets players, but apart from these two or three, the outbursts of other players Bobcats can't be stopped.

Specifically, the Bobcats had a chance to limit Dwyane Wade and Ron Artest's individual offense, but they couldn't defend against the offensive system surrounding Yao.

Qiao Hai is well aware of this, so he knows that the Bobcats have a good chance of losing this Finals.

The odds of losing are high, but whether there is a chance or not depends on the end of the game.

So before the first game, Qiao Hai was already ready.

"The regular lineup is definitely not playing, only five small, we have a chance." In the coaching staff meeting before the finals, Elvin Gentry made the point.

Qiao Hai also nodded: "That's right, against the rocket, we can only go to five small, and we have a chance to kill the master with random punches!" ”

……

On June 6, at the Toyota Center in Houston, the first game of the finals began.

At the beginning, Qiao Hai first put out a regular lineup, controlled the rhythm, and played for three minutes, the Bobcats were by the Rockets 14:8, and the Rockets suddenly established a 6-point lead.

"Let's pause the substitutions." Qiao Hai shook his head helplessly.

Bobcats' regular lineup on the court is equivalent to delivering food, the Rockets rely on Yao Ming's range to reach the three-point line, and Boris Dio's distribution of the ball, crazy to create misplaced single opportunities, Wade and Yao Ming at the same time, Bobcats' defense is completely unable to resist.

Joe immediately called a timeout and replaced him with Gerard Wallace to strengthen the defense.

But the rocket has already played an unstoppable offense, especially Yao Ming, once his hand is hot, he directly enters the god-killing mode and scores in the middle and long-range jumpers continuously.

The Bobcats had to keep one man on their side, following Yao Ming closely, and the Bobcats' defense was stretched thin.

The game was played to the end with a score of 95:109.

The Bobcats lost by six points at the beginning of the game and lost by 14 points until the end of the game, and the Bobcats were always behind, not even getting the slightest chance to overtake the score.

……

After losing the first game of the finals, Qiao Hai felt more and more that they had no chance, but before the second game, he still used props.

Qiao Hai had five status cards in his hand, and before the second game, he threw one directly and gave it to Michael Reed.

Then, the second battle began.

At the beginning, Qiao Hai was on a five-small lineup, forcibly raising the tempo, and with Michael Reed exploding, the Bobcats even got a 5-point advantage in the first quarter of the game.

But in the second quarter, Yao Ming suddenly broke out, hitting five consecutive mid-range jumpers, hitting all five shots, and directly cut 10 points in just over 2 minutes.

The Rockets thus overtook the score in one wave.

And in the second half, the two teams began to bite on the score, the Bobcats scored a goal, the Rockets played a ball in turn, and the third quarter ended, the two teams were tied, and it looked like the Bobcats still had a chance to win.

But in the fourth quarter, the Rockets opened directly with the Bobcats to improve the rhythm, Yao Ming received the ball and shot far away as soon as he arrived in the front court, and the shots were very casual, but he could score.

After playing for more than four minutes, the Rockets directly hit a wave of 21:11, and the score was opened.

In the end, the Rockets defeated the Bobcats 111-102 and won the second victory in the finals!

In the case of using up a status card, he still failed to win, Qiao Hai was also quite helpless, Michael Reed, who got the status card bonus, performed very well, in this game, Reed shot 17 of 32, and scored 46 points directly alone, if it wasn't for the failure to win, Reed's personal performance in this game should be a god.

But even so, Reid still got a lot of praise after the game.
