Chapter 271: Yao Next Year (3/4!) )
"Watch the catch!" Jackson stopped chewing gum and stood on the sidelines shouting at his teammates.
Although tactical command is not his strong point, as a top coach, the Rockets can still feel the momentum.
Rockets frontcourt ball.
Artest sent the ball to the sideline, and Billups received the ball and motioned for the player to pull away.
Yao Ming received the ball in the low post on the right side with his back against Bynum.
On the defensive end, they are as fearless as the Honey Badger, and when it comes to the offensive end, they must also be like the Honey Badger and know how to use their strengths.
Yao Ming scored 16 points in the first half, which is obviously the most advantageous place for the Rockets.
Bynum sank his weight and pressed against Yao Ming.
Although he suffers from height and weight, his strength is not bad.
Yao Ming turned his head and saw that the Lakers were not covered, so he turned directly to the bottom line, and then directly made a long-distance hook.
"Bang!"
The ball rubs the board diagonally into the frame.
Yao Ming came back in the second half and scored 4 points in a row.
The emotions of the fans at the scene were getting higher and higher.
Yao Ming's performance this season is too stable, more stable than in the past six years.
The Lakers attacked, Kobe Bryant fell to the low post, and Artest fought him hand-to-hand.
Kobe moved, Artest moved, Kobe stopped, Artest still moved, it felt like the cells of the whole body were in a state of infinite excitement.
Tang Tian's choice is correct, Artest is not the best person to defend Kobe, but he is the most suitable person to defend Kobe.
Like a real honey badger, he stumbles to the end with the black mamba.
Kobe Bryant ran back, turned and shook off Artest and ran to the basket.
Fisher with a high lob ball.
However, Artest made a leap in advance.
"Smack!"
The pass was successfully interfered with by him and shot straight out.
Maddie was quick to catch the ball, and then held it firmly.
Phil Jackson reached out to hold his forehead at this time, and kept shaking his head.
The Lakers made two mistakes in a row.
The cheers at the scene were shocking, and although Kobe Bryant was still in hot form, the Rockets had already limited his catch for three consecutive rounds.
This is an absolutely positive sign.
The Rockets attacked, Billups carried the ball to the frontcourt, and handed the ball to Yao Ming, which was the right point.
Da Gasol came over to help defend, Yao Ming reached out and forced him back with a pass, and then turned and hooked his hand under the basket.
Bynum leaped to his feet.
Yao Ming suddenly collected the ball and turned back, shook Bynum away, and then scored on an easy board.
Hit you, just like playing!
Yao Ming has scored 6 points in a row after coming back in the second half!
58 to 67!
His wave of personal attacks also narrowed the difference between the two sides to 9 points in an instant!
Kobe Bryant glanced up at the point difference at this time, and then ran directly to the bottom line to catch the ball.
Since the Rockets wouldn't let him receive the ball in the frontcourt, he would dribble it himself through the backcourt.
Ariza gave the ball to Kobe, who directly connected Billups and Artest and dribbled the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt.
The rest of the Lakers team opened up the space directly.
When the game reaches such a critical moment, there is no triangle tactic, as long as you can score.
Kobe Bryant and Artest are one-on-one at the top of the arc.
Dribble, cross-step, accelerate, stop, change direction.
Kobe Bryant's whole body was moving, and it felt like he wasn't playing but dancing!
Artest tried his best, but he still shook out a gap.
Yi Jianlian quickly pounced to help defend at this time.
But Kobe Bryant was faster, he didn't have any intention of choosing to pass, and he pulled up and shot after there was a gap.
"Huh!"
The ball went over Yi Jianlian's head and fell steadily into the net bag.
Bryant finally scored, and the Lakers successfully broke the scoring drought.
The score difference is in double digits again!
There was a commotion at the scene, and Tang Tian got up from the bench and stood on the sidelines.
Billups dribbled the ball to the front court and handed the ball to Yao Ming.
Da Gasol didn't care about Yi Jianlian at this time, and pounced on the defense as soon as possible.
Yao Ming didn't pass the ball when he saw this, turned directly to the bottom line, and then shot directly backwards.
Big Gasol's bag was useless, and Bynum struggled to block it.
"Smack!"
This slap hit Yao Ming's arm directly, and it was crisp and audible.
"Huh!"
The ball followed into the net.
It's a 2+1!
The cheers at the scene exploded directly.
Bynum reached out and cupped his head.
Phil Jackson shook his head and turned to the bench to call Odom.
Yao Ming hit Bynum too easily.
"Yao Ming ~ Yao Ming ~ Yao Ming is terrible~"
Yao Ming scored 8 points in a row, and the home fans naturally did not miss such an opportunity, seized this gap, and began to sing Yao's song.
"It's Yao next year, man." Barkley laughed in the commentary booth.
Originally, he and Smith felt that the Rockets were powerless, but Yao Ming's operation on the offensive end pulled the Rockets back from the edge of the cliff.
Yao Mingjia hit a steady shot and chased the difference to only 8 points.
Ariza sent the ball out of the backcourt, and Bryant made it all the way to the front court against Artest's defense.
The rest of the Lakers players are still pulling away, and the top of the arc is still Kobe Bryant and Artest's one-on-one.
Change direction, cross step, stop, turn, turn again, sway, dumble again, jump up and lean.
Bryant's movements are still incredibly coherent.
Artest's defense of the ball is also quite exciting, and he does not leave an inch, forcing Kobe to choose to use the difficult action of jumping up and back, and almost at the same time, he jumped and pressed his hand in front of Kobe's eyes.
Bryant shot almost flat down.
"Huh!"
The ball still goes in.
The black mamba's fangs still glowed coldly.
"Stay faithful and fearless!" Tang Tian stood on the sidelines at this time and shouted a reminder.
Artest nodded, slapping his chest hard.
Honey Badgers do not give up after one or two failed attacks.
Billups dribbled to the front court and continued to hand the ball to Yao Ming.
This isn't the Rockets' only offensive option, but it's the most effective.
Big Gasol reacted quickly enough, and the ball was directly clamped up, without hesitation at all.
The route to Yi Jianlian was blocked, and Yao Ming held the ball high.
"Easy! Easy! Billups gave full play to Mr. Big Heart at this time and greeted Yi Jianlian as soon as possible.
Yi Jianlian heard the shout, and then looked at Billups's gesture, and directly mentioned that he made a block in the high position, and Billups cut in and then ran out.
By the time he reached the three-point line, Fisher had been blocked by Yi Jianlian.
Yao Ming's excellent vision soon spotted and threw the ball directly.
Billups catches the ball from beyond the three-point line.
The ball crosses a high parabola. Straight down towards the basket.
"Huh!"
The ball goes into the net.
"Chauncey~Billups!!"
The live DJ shouted Billups' name.
The cheers resounded in the stadium.
This three-pointer helped the Rockets narrow the gap to 7 points!
And the second half of the second half has only passed.
Team Rocket, this is the rhythm to be flipped over!
