But Adelman meets Kevin. Love scored, widening the gap between the two teams to six points, but was also indifferent. His original intention was to restrict Ding Mo'an, and after he didn't see Ding Mo'an block Artest playing defensive counterattack goals, he had nothing to gain, and he could only do so in Sean. Battier and Artest are in the lineup running around the half court without the ball like headless flies?

Restricting Ding Mo'an is to win the game!

Adelman knows in his heart, after all, so far in this game, the only person who has brought the biggest threat to the Rockets is Ding Moan, who has scored 18 points, 1 rebound, 1, steal, 1 block, and contributed on both offensive and defensive ends.

Others, in the Rockets' strong lineup are not to be feared. Even in Hayes, the chopping is like a chopping vegetable. Love, in Adelman's eyes, as long as the main squad gets enough rest time to get back on the court, Kevin . Lefu couldn't jump up.

After all, in terms of interior strength and roster depth, few teams in the league can wrestle with the Rockets, let alone the Grizzlies of the Youth Army.

However, Adelman didn't know that Ding Mo'an's true intention was actually to compete for frontcourt rebounds. Although it was behind Sean. Battier and Artest chased and blocked on the offensive end every time, but Ding Moan also had scoring opportunities, but they both let them out.

Because there is no need to shoot some individual ability balls, Kevin who consumed his energy prematurely in the second quarter and had a better scoring opportunity on the team. Lefou, Ding Mo'an doesn't need to be strong by himself to cut points for the team.

I don't see, Kevin. Did Love have fun brushing points on Hayes?

And when the game continued in the second quarter, the Rockets had another offensive opportunity, and Artest attacked with the ball. However, Artest saw that although he had been waiting for opportunities to grab rebounds on the offensive end, Ding Mo'an, who had not let go of the defense, had a tendency to move towards him, so he was so frightened that he quickly handed the ball to the point guard and ran away.

Artest has also learned to be obedient since he suffered continuous losses in Ding Mo'an, and he is respectful of Ding Mo'an, who is not easy to mess with. is also fresh in his memory of Ding Mo'an's blocking and more deterrent death entanglement.

Therefore, Artest, who didn't dare to be as tough as before and went to fight Ding Mo'an, soon ran to bully honest people. After a while, Artest quickly found a soft persimmon, Batum, who was a rookie from the Grizzlies like Ding Moan. Although he is a rookie in the same class and joined the team together, in terms of Ding Moan's dazzling performance and the team's attention, Batum naturally cannot be compared with Ding Mo'an, so he has suffered Artest's loss in the preseason, and he is a little timid in the face of Artest.

And Artest, who likes to bully honest people the most, immediately seemed to have found a vent point, and bullied Batum, who looked like he had two or two flesh on his arm, in a rough way. Artest, who has suffered losses for many people, the power generated by the flesh of his body must be something that Batum cannot withstand.

Boom!

Batum desperately tried to block Artest's impact, but he was stumbled under his feet, and the defense immediately showed holes. Artest rushed to the free throw line, didn't dare to go deeper, and shot directly!

Syllable!

The basketball in Artest's hand sounded crisp again, but it was not the sound of the basket entering the net, but the sound of a sturdy hat, which immediately knocked the ball in Artest's hand from the slap, leaving Artest's surprised facial expression.

What's going on!

At the same time that Artest was confused, Batum, who was passed by him, was no better, and he didn't know why Artest, who was shot after breaking through himself, why the ball was flying backwards.

But the sound of gasping cold air sounded again from the Rocket fans in his ears, which made him understand that Artest was capped! Batum's reaction was not bad, and he immediately wanted to grab the basketball that was shot down and soared in the air.

But suddenly, two figures rushed from both sides of him, rushing quickly, aiming directly at the rebound. When the two approached, a thin and a fat figure appeared. Lefou! At this time, the faces of the two were full of hideousness, and they vowed not to give up if they didn't win the rebound, which also made Batum so frightened that he quickly stopped his steps.

It's not a rebounding battle he can get into!

After predicting that Batum would definitely not be able to prevent Artest, who was more than twice as wide as him, Ding Mo'an was always ready to help defend, so when Artest broke through the defense and shot, Ding Mo'an was able to rush out like a cheetah accurately, and in the middle of Artest's slow shot, he killed with one blow and ended the attack.

However, Ding Mo'an only has rebounds in his eyes at the moment, and Kevin, who also regards rebounds as his life. At this time, Lefu had already reached out to grab the rebound, but Ding Mo'an had the advantage of speed and figure. Leffu can't reach it, so when it comes to rebounding, Kevin, who has always been invincible. Lefou's rare defeat this time.

Boom!

Than Kevin. Ding Mo'an, who was faster, jumped up quickly to grab the basketball and successfully won a rebound. However, compared to this backcourt rebound, many people have noticed what Ding Mo'an showed when he blocked just now.

"Ding Mo'an's ability to assist in defense is very good, whether it is his speed or a pair of long arms, he has performed brilliantly in this auxiliary defense. And even through the replay, it can be seen that Ding Mo'an made a defensive prediction when Artest had not yet broken through his teammate's defense, and then there was this wonderful defense. As the commentator invited by CCTV5 this time, Su Qun explained to the fans the technical characteristics of Ding Mo'an's blocking in the defense just now.

And ESPN commentary Ding Blow in the Heavenly Group, Kenny. Smith shook his arms excitedly and almost danced a tango in celebration after Ding Mo'an blocked Artest.

Simply restraining his emotions, this Ding Blow, then smiled and said: "Ding is a talented player who has both strong physical talent and can play with his own brain. I think he's on the defensive end, like a combination of Sean. Battier and Artest's strong point of the future terror defender. ”

"I think Artest, who is known as the league's top one-on-one defense specialist, is now desperate to find a crack to get into. After all, this is the first time in his life, in the game, he ate two hats of his opponent in a row and this hat his opponent is still a rookie. ”

For Kenny. Smith praised Ding Moan, Charles. Barkley was powerless and unable to refute it. Similarly, the reporters at the scene were also disappointed, Ding Mo'an's debut was only halfway through, and his performance was the most perfect debut in history, so that people who wanted to belittle themselves couldn't find a trace of smoke.

And on the field, just now let Ding Mo'an cooperate with the defensive hat, and Artest, who was embarrassed again, was annoyed and angry and wanted to use his own defense to divert others from the embarrassing scene of being hatted again just now, and entangled Ding Mo'an first.

And then Sean. Battier also surrounded and suppressed, because Ding Mo'an's speed and technical characteristics made them dare not take it lightly, and it was easy for Ding Mo'an to play a fast attack that could make them unable to react.

And after the two joined forces, Ding Mo'an's fast attack opportunity disappeared in an instant, 1vs2, which is difficult for Ding Mo'an now, so he handed the ball to Mike. Conley, by Mike. Conley organizes the team's attack.

Seeing that he stopped Ding Moan's fast-break goal, Sean. Battier and Artest looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. Adelman sent them to join forces for the purpose of limiting Ding Moan's scoring momentum and locking up the Grizzlies, a strong scoring point.

However, Artest has already burst into tears in his heart at this moment, although the offense restricts Ding Mo'an, but it also allows Ding Mo'an to focus more on defense, which is not a good thing for him!

The successive caps are the best proof of this.

And Mike. After holding the ball, Conley passed the ball to the team's second scorer, Kevin. Love, most of the ball in this quarter was almost in the hands of Ding Moan and Kevin. Lefou.

In particular, when Ding Mo'an took the initiative to concede the ball, Kevin. Lefu has become a source of firepower for the Tigers. As for Batum, Mark. Gasol, not Mike. Conley was reluctant to give, but rather their offensive stability was no Kevin. Lefou's coming is safe.

And both, one from France and the other from Spain, need time to get used to the style of American basketball, life and language in the United States, and the higher-level opponents and leagues. They are different from Ding Mo'an, because Ding Mo'an, the core of the Grizzlies today, although he is a foreigner, has played in the NCAA for a season before playing in the NBA, and he does not need to adapt at all, and he is directly connected to the NBA.

Therefore, compared to the scoring inconsistency, the assist data is not necessarily Mark. Gasol with Batum, Mike. Conley definitely chose Kevin. Lefou, this is a good all-round scorer on the inside.

However, when Kevin. Love picks up Mike again. Conley passed the ball, trying to use his height advantage to play big and small like the previous three balls, and continued to score like a defender jumper.

by Kevin. Love, a young rookie, and Hayes, who scored three goals in a row, also found a way to deal with Kevin. Lefou's approach. With the strength of the lower body no less than that of other interior players, in Kevin. Lefu habitually turned around and resisted him, and suddenly this effect appeared in Kevin. Lefou's shot on the crosshairs.

As we all know, when shooting, it is divided into the joint force of the upper body and the lower body, and the palms, arms and feet work together to throw the ball at the moment of force. It's just that the lower half of the body is suddenly stuck, Kevin. Lefu is like having two wings and flying into the air, and suddenly one of them is broken, and the ball thrown out is naturally crooked.

Bang!

After the basketball slammed into the neck of the basket and made a noise, the Rockets players caught the trail of the rebound at the same moment. But what they didn't find was that Mark. Gasol and Kevin. Love and Batum suddenly stood in front of their respective opposing players.

And at this moment, in the eyes of others, Ding Mo'an, who was running around in the eyes of others, smiled, he didn't expect the opportunity to rebound in the front court to come so quickly. So the feet flashed quickly, the sneakers rubbed against the floor, and the whistling wind suddenly came out of the crowd!

Thanks to Kevin. Love has taken the ball and shot it out of the defense of Sean. Battier also relaxed his vigilance against Ding Mo'an, and even Artest left Ding Mo'an, who was chasing after him before, at this moment, and went straight to grab the rebound in the front court.

In their view, Ding Mo'an's threat is a terrifying death entanglement on the offensive end as well as on the defensive end. As for rebounding, are you kidding? Nowadays, the league guards are good at grabbing frontcourt rebounds, and only Kidd, Wade, and Rondo are the real C's who average 1.1 or 1.3 frontcourt rebounds per game per game.

The more important reason is that they don't think that Ding Mo'an, who is already very terrifying and demonic, can be so comprehensive. After all, there are very few players who can be called all-round warriors in the NBA, not to mention Ding Mo'an, who has a strong firepower output on the offensive end and can make indispensable contributions on the defensive end.

And at this moment, the inside line is also crowded, and Kevin who threw the ball. Lefou, Mark. Gasol and the two fought hand-to-hand with the Rockets on the inside, but the immature Kevin. Lefu and they couldn't play Mutombo, Hayes and Artest who ran to reinforce Artest, and they were easily squeezed out of a favorable position.

It's just that when everyone thought that this rebound would belong to the rocket, Ding Mo'an, who rushed into the interior quickly, was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, grabbing everyone before him, and a yellow finch came behind them, and then he didn't stagnate, and jumped directly to take the ball and smash it to the basket!

Boom!

There was a loud bang, which shook everyone's hearts! The Rockets players who were still aiming for success before, the shocked expression on their faces at this time is enough to make countless memes! And the sudden clasp behind Ding Mo'an suddenly made the group of people standing on the inside line of the rocket scatter like scattered sand.

Hayes, the shortest of them all, was knocked to the floor by the impact and the unconsciously backward footsteps of his teammates. At the same time that Hayes fell to the ground, it also made the Rockets inside, and the scene was chaotic for a while.

And the fans in the Toyota Center Arena were all silent at this moment, watching the dazzling Ding Mo'an on the basket fall from the basket. Clapping his hands, Ding Mo'an and his teammates returned to the backcourt together.

At this time, with Ding Moan's strong frontcourt rebounds and explosive second-attack dunks, the Grizzlies bench simply became a sea of towels. The Grizzlies players on the bench almost rushed to the court in excitement, it was too domineering!

And this is Ding Mo'an's first frontcourt rebound, and it is also the first frontcourt rebound score. However, the most unhappy thing about Ding Mo'an's ball is undoubtedly the Rocket players and fans, compared to the excitement on the Grizzlies' side, the Rockets bench can't help but be quiet.

At the same time, the Rockets on the court began to stare wide-eyed, after all, the backcourt rebounds were lost too inexplicably, especially the Rockets' interior line was almost in place, but in the end, Ding Mo'an was destroyed, grabbed the rebound, completed the second offense, and finally fell short, which was a big blow to morale.

It's just that at this time, Sean, who had previously posted Ding Mo'an. Battier could only smile wryly and raise his hand to show that it was his fault and carry the pot. If you don't carry it, you can't do it, after all, even he didn't expect that Ding Mo'an would be able to grab the frontcourt rebound, and grab it so well that everyone didn't notice it.

Sean. Battier took the initiative to take the blame, no one would not give face, so after Mutombo, the oldest member of the Rockets lineup, said that it was nothing, the Rockets continued their offensive, but in the face of Ding Moan, who was more and more preoccupied on defense, the Rockets' offense could be described as a mess, and they failed to score one after another.

Although the Rockets' score had been pulled to 10 points until the end of the second quarter, Adelman did not change the lineup and went into halftime. Although the score was pulled apart, there were still many who thought that the Rockets would win the game.

Not because of him, the Rockets lineup, in addition to the two defensive gates, the main internal and external cores, Yao Ming and Maddie rarely get a full quarter of rest, which also means that Yao Ming will not have the problem of physical exhaustion in the fourth quarter, which is not good news for the Grizzlies who are weaker than the Rockets on the inside.
