Chapter 307: Four Consecutive Victories
If Paul gave Curry a good lesson in the first half about the experience gap between NBA veterans and rookies, then the unbearable Totoro gave Jackson an education lesson on a huge gap in talent, although the final result of the two is a lesson, but there are still subtle differences, the content of Paul's class is what Curry can learn, and it will be much better after paying the tuition for the first time and the second time, and the lesson Totoro gave to Jackson is something that the other party will never learn. Even if he pays the tuition and goes bankrupt, Jackson will still be ravaged by Totoro.
My Neighbor Totoro leaned on Jackson with his body and stood on the baseline, and Paul gave the ball to Totoro very well.
The Warriors don't dare to easily go forward to pack, especially when Totoro and Queen Bee are on the floor at the same time and Totoro doesn't make it to the three-second zone, they will only give the opponent a chance to shoot in the open space, and a point guard with historic vision and a small forward with long arms and passing ability have that kind of power together.
Jackson, who has been in the league for I don't know how many years, knows that Totoro will definitely singled himself out of this ball, he has seen too many young and vigorous new star players, and he knows the temper of these little guys, so Jackson is also concentrating this time, staring at Totoro behind his back, and is ready to embarrass this Asian with tough defense.
But Jackson is also overestimating his own abilities..........
Although he dared to swear to the sky that he had worked very hard to block Totoro with his body, Totoro still used his hard work to gain weight again in the summer to easily squeeze Jackson away, and the Warriors players wanted to rush up to help defend, but they were grabbed by the insightful Totoro to turn around and complete the turnaround jumper before they were in place, and in the face of Totoro with the identity of a power forward and the arm span of the center, Jackson had to symbolically stretch out his hand below and sigh.
"Huh!"
This back-to-back singles is the only result of his back-to-back skills this summer, after all, he spent all his efforts on shooting and dribbling and passing in the summer, but don't look at Totoro's only this back-to-back move now, his turn-over jumper near the bottom corner is a big killer that can kill the game one after another at critical moments.
He trained a strong body comparable to a humanoid tank in the summer, all of which were question mark attributes, so that Totoro himself didn't know what level his current body was, but he instinctively felt that even if he couldn't hit the gorilla now, it was not much worse in terms of strength, if he could improve his exercise this summer, then it is estimated that the little emperor will not be his opponent at all in this regard next year.
He also has enough height and arm span in the small forward position, and because he is in the baseline position, the opponent's people are not at all easy to pack, Totoro is confident that if the opponent is a small forward to engage him, he can push a few butts to a step away from the penalty area line like this offense, and in case the opponent sends a big forward to get him Totoro to say that he is not false, he can use his speed, footwork and explosiveness to turn around the opponent from the baseline and kill the penalty area, no matter who it is for him.
But because this is one of his killer features, he won't use it unless it's a critical moment, and this time it's just that he was beaten a few times to teach Jackson a lesson, and in normal times, Totoro also prefers to end the battle with a step-back shot when pulling and shaking, and he now understands the importance of playing healthy basketball, before there is no championship, he can be willing to cut the emperor off the horse, but now since he became the emperor once, he thinks he doesn't need to work so hard, Instead of playing a little more vigorously now, it is better to restrain yourself a little bit and make the peak period longer, maybe you can sign a sky-high pension contract at the age of 30 like James, thinking about it this way, there is a gap of hundreds of millions of dollars inside and out.
The Warriors lost their temper by Totoro's several back goals, Donnell felt a headache when he saw such a Totoro, you must know that Yao Ming, another master of the Rockets' back play, is still cheating on injury at the moment, and when the little giant returns with full blood after recovering in the water spring, who can beat the Rockets in this stalemate in the fourth quarter? Two back-to-back singles masters stood in the two bottom corners, one on the left and one on the right, if they wanted to defend their own side, they had to invest at least four people, and there were only five people in a game, so did he want the remaining one person to stare at the three three-point shooters who were ambushed in different positions outside?
Halfway through the fourth quarter, the two teams still have a point difference of more than 15+, and Donnell also sent a combination of Alice and Curry to let them score with Totoro of the Rockets, but Curry is still a rookie after all, and the intensity of the NBA is much higher than that of the NCAA, and the elementary school students who played in the fourth quarter are already out of breath, and he naturally does not have the magical three points in the first quarter when his physical strength is at the bottom, and although Monta Alice's scoring ability is very good, it is a drop in the bucket to break through to the restricted area for two points and two points, At most, the score can only be maintained and not reopened, but how to narrow the difference?
Donnell is also decisive, tomorrow their Warriors have to go back-to-back to play the Grizzlies, seeing that there is little hope of a comeback on their side, Donnell also replaced all the main forces of the Warriors with a big hand and announced his surrender, and the Rockets' three consecutive wins in the opening season are so handy.
It's just that these three consecutive wins have not caused much thought from the outside world, after all, the Rockets are the defending team this year, and the strength on the books has improved compared to last year, and except for the first game against the Celtics, the other two are not strong teams, and the three consecutive wins are also within the expectations of external experts, and in addition to the Rockets, other giants this year, the Lakers, Spurs, Magic, and Cavaliers have also achieved a winning record so far.
On November 3rd, the Rockets finally returned to their home court to meet the Utah Jazz who came to challenge, for last year's championship, the Jazz team has always felt very unconvinced, because they feel that they are the real sufferers of the Rockets, they killed the Rockets in the 06-07 and 07-08 seasons in two years, although they were in the 08-09 season by the new Chinchilla led by the Rockets in the regular season is full of packages that have exploded in the playoffs for two years, but the Jazz do not take this to heart, The playoffs and the regular season are obviously two modes of play, and some foul actions in the regular season will not be blown at all in the fierce playoffs, in other words, the playoffs are the stage for their team known for being tough, and they don't think that if the Rockets meet themselves in the playoffs, they can still pass as easily as they did in the regular season.
It's a pity that they were beaten by the Spurs before they hit the Rockets last year, and if they can be the winners and meet the Rockets in the second round, maybe they will be the champions last year? After all, people always need some dreams, don't they?
It's just that unlike other strong teams that have been making reinforcements this summer, not only did the Jazz not do anything this summer, but there were voices of discord in the team, and the contradiction between the star and the legendary coach of the Jazz Sloan intensified, DeLong believes that Sloan is the culprit of the Jazz team reaching the playoffs every year but not getting good results every year, while Sloan believes that DeLong does not have the temperament of the core of the team at all, although the two have not developed to the point where they are incompatible even in the outside world, But My Neighbor Totoro knows that the Jazz must be done this year, Sloan's dismissal has become inevitable, and Delon will end his peak here, and the little fat man who was packed and sent to Brooklyn by the Jazz will no longer be the majesty of the Utah Double Evil period, and his greatness will stop at this time next year.........
The untidy Jazz is naturally not a united Rockets opponent, although the three people in the Jazz team are very eager to avenge last year's one-arrow revenge, but as more than a year has passed, and after trying Totoro's old boxing, these three people are also a little unable to find Totoro's stubble, originally in the eyes of the outside world, Mars hit the earth in a game in a bland shooting exhibition game, the Jazz team felt a little worse, and they did not have last year's iron-blooded defense, The Rockets saw that the Jazz did not mean to play seriously, and they did not take it seriously, and in the end, the Rockets defeated their opponents by 102-90 by 12 points at home and won their fourth consecutive game of the season.
