Rockets head coach Jeff. Van Gundy hates Alston more and more, and he has always insisted on standing on defense, and he attaches great importance to the team's defense, while Alston not only has no achievements in defense, but also indulges in all kinds of fancy dribbling on the offensive end, and is deaf to Van Gundy's request to hand over the ball to Yao Ming in time.

On the offensive end, Alstom has always wanted to show off his dribbling skills in front of Sun Yue, but Sun Yue stood in front of Alstom like a stupid fork and watched him dribble, but the street ball king dribbled for seventeen or eighteen seconds, and found that he couldn't pass Sun Yue at all, and finally had to helplessly pass to Yao Ming on the inside.

And the most critical thing in the inside singles is the card position before the singles, the card position is a matter of moments, Yao Ming began to get stuck in the position, Alstom did not pass to him, Yao Ming still wants to continue to get to the position There is no chance, after all, the center of the Eagles Pachulia is also a floor flow center who is proficient in low-post card technology.

In the end, Yao Ming, who did not get stuck in the position and did not adjust the time, could only turn around and shoot in a hurry, and Pachuria's defense against him made his shot very unnatural, which also caused his shot to miss and was missed by Josh. Smith grabbed that backcourt rebound.

Yibian fought again, Sun Yue used Pachuria's blocking to sneak into the three-point line, attracting Zhu Wan. Howard's defense made a stitch and passed the basketball to Joe, who was ambushed on the outside. Johnson, although Joe. Johnson's jump shot is not as good as Maddy's, but it surpasses Maddy by a lot in terms of shooting percentage. Johnson naturally hit a solid jumper.

Although Jeff. Although Van Gundy vowed before the game about how strong the Rockets' defensive system was, and said that it could even be comparable to the Knicks, the defensive powerhouse he coached back then, he actually hasn't pinched the Rockets' defense into a system so far.

After all, the Rockets' lineup has obvious flaws in defense, point guard Alston is dispensable defensively, and scoring guard David. West's defensive awareness is very good, but because of age and injuries, defensive speed guards suffer a lot. Howard is heavy on offense and light on defense.

The team's two core players, Maddie basically put his energy into the offensive end, naturally he will be lazy on the defensive end, and Yao Ming's power on the defensive end is underestimated, his help defense and single defense ability are excellent, but limited by physical strength and speed, he can't be like Dwight. Howard built a tight defensive system like that.

So after the two sides finished the first quarter, Sun Yue has been relying on his breakthroughs and passes to thread the needle for the team, and under his instigation, the Hawks actually led by 4 points. This is still based on the play of the Rockets' duo - Yao McQiqi tonight.

The Eagles' outstanding performance made everyone unbelievable, a team at the bottom of the East and a strong team in the West played like this, which has to be said to be the credit of Sun Yue, whose breakthrough points and tactical command injected fresh vitality into the young Eagles.

Trailing the Hawks Jean Jeff. Van Gundy couldn't stand it at all, in his original plan, he established the lead in the first quarter, completely crushed the Hawks in the second and third quarters, and turned the fourth quarter into garbage time, and now not only did he not lead in the first quarter, but also fell behind by four points, which made Van Gundy furious.

An angry Van Gundy made a rare move in the second quarter with two young guards, point guard John. Lucas III and Luther. Hyde, you know, Van Gundy is a very old-fashioned traditional coach who rarely brings on new players in regular time.

The Rockets' bench lineup shows how picky the Rockets' owner, Mr. Alexander, is reluctant to pull out a mid-level contract to sign two experienced and powerful guards, instead using these two rookie guards selected this year.

Van Gundy's willingness to use these two newcomers relied on the fact that he had Maddie on the floor, but Maddie did not live up to his expectations.

Lucas III quickly handed the basketball to Maddie after half court with the ball, Maddy raised his hand, afraid that he would pull three points again, Childis hurriedly wanted to block, Maddie took the opportunity to accelerate directly into the restricted area, and smashed the Hawks' basket with one hand.

Before the cheers of the home fans at the Toyota Center were over, Sun Yue controlled the ball and launched a fast attack, turned past Alston on the outside, and then covered by his teammates, plus his own speed and direction, and rhythm, and continued to go deep into the penalty area. It was all the way to the depth of the interior that he made a drifting jumper and hit a two-point shot.

After the Rockets served from the baseline, John. Lucas III was noticeably quicker, and he quickly held the ball through the half. Then he handed the ball to Maddy, Maddie faced Childis's defense, and made a slight feint, and the forgetful Childis couldn't help but run again, after all, Maddy's pull-up jumper was too difficult to figure out.

And Childis jumped together, Maddie started his first step known as "the fastest in the league" and directly stepped past Childres's defense, when he burst into the free throw line, Sun Yue hurriedly stepped forward to make up for the defense, Maddie unhurriedly passed the basketball to Swift.

Swift, as the 2000 pick, has long since lost the potential to be praised in unison in the draft, and only excellent physical fitness remains.

After grasping the basketball, Swift quickly took a step forward, and then bounced violently as if jumping on a spring bed...... The bullet is fast and impressively high.

Swift threw the basketball into the hoop, and the Toyota Center Arena was quickly set on fire by his earth-shattering dunk.

Just when Swift was still smug about his dunk, Sun Yue had already begun to launch a fast attack.

Luther. Hyde was still very jealous of Sun Yue's fast attack, he was ready to intercept Sun Yue in the middle line, but he was cleaned up in the middle line, Sun Yue used a quick stop to add and minus the block to freeze his defense, and then broke through in a flash.

When Sun Yue rushed to the three-point line of the opponent's half, Sun Yue threw the basketball into the restricted area seemingly casually, and Childis rose into the sky, volleyed and smashed the basketball into the basket.

Maddy, who defends him, is still slowly running back on his way, and as a superstar, he thinks of himself as high and does not put too much energy into the defensive end, which also gives Childis, who is opposite him, more offensive opportunities.

In the first half of the second quarter, the Rockets not only did not close the score gap, but were also stretched by the Hawks to make the advantage bigger and bigger.
