Chapter 89: Blocking and Demolition

Both sides were attacking smoothly, but since Wu Di and Kirilenko came on the pitch, things have changed. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info these two began to strengthen the defense of the tall team, both of them have a certain ability to assist in defense, under the interference of each other, five minutes passed, and the two teams scored four goals each.

The Jazz called a timeout, and the Rockets were originally a defensive team and were used to playing games like this, so Adelman replaced Maddy with Battier to strengthen the defense.

But the Jazz can't, they're an offensive team, and if they don't score for a long time, the feeling will go down, and then the Jazz lose.

After the game started again, the Jazz changed their tactics and played pick-and-roll. Blocking and pick-and-roll is the main tactic of the Jazz, and the reason why they didn't play this tactic before is because the Rockets' defense is not very tight, and they can score goals alone, and second, they are on the road, so they don't need to be overly complicated as much as possible.

The Jazz's blocking and pick-and-roll tactics have been studied deeply, and the usual blocking tactics are nothing at all, and they can use them anytime and anywhere.

Now they have to use a second or even three pick-and-rolls, and without one more pick-and-roll, the complexity of the pick-and-roll tactics will be doubled.

Boozer blocks DeLong, who shakes off Hyde and goes inside. Landry switched to DeLong, Delon passed back, Boozer received the ball, and squeezed Hyde away with his strength. Hyde tried to interfere as much as possible, Boozer had a hard time dribbling, but Oku on the side immediately came to block people, and Boozer shook off Hyde and faced Da Yao. Boozer's acceleration rushed past Da Yao, directly facing the basket, and then another dunk from the basket. Da Yao just turned around, it was difficult to block, and he could only watch Boozer score.

This is the second pick-and-roll, a tactic that works very effectively but is very chaotic.

The Jazz used pick-and-roll, and the Rockets were no exception. Hyde tried to single-handedly DeLong, but failed, so he passed the ball to Wu Di, who switched to the second position. Wu Di gave Da Yao a look, and Da Yao immediately pulled forward and stood near the free throw line.

Wu Di carried Kirilenko and rushed into the three-point line, and Kirilenko hit Da Yao in the middle of retreating. Wu Di immediately took the opportunity to shake off Kirilenko, hit the inside, rushed to the basket with Oku, and then passed back to Da Yao.

Da Yao followed behind Wu Di, reached out to catch the ball, and then substituted the hook ball and scored the ball. Da Yao's hook hand is still very accurate, and the hook hand is a technique that every traditional center will use, only those new center forwards are not very good at it.

Both sides relied on blocking and dismantling for a few minutes, which made the offense smoother. In the eighth minute, the two sides made another substitution, and the players who had been on the field were replaced, Da Yao was replaced by Uncle Mu, and Hyde was replaced by Alstom. On the Jazz side, Boozer was replaced by Millsap, Oku was replaced by Collins, Deron was replaced by Price, plus Kirilenko and Covor on the court, this lineup is weak.

In fact, this is the gap between the Jazz and the Rockets, the Rockets can use a lot of people this year, even on the bench, there are several players who have no chance, such as Hayes, Novak and others, who can only play in garbage time after entering the playoffs.

The Jazz's current roster is going to need to survive the final four minutes of the second quarter. Except for Millsap and Kirilenko, who still have some strength, the others have no advantage over the Rockets.

So the Jazz have to continue to play the pick-and-roll to the end, and still play according to the complexity.

The Jazz continued to play his pick-and-roll, but the Rockets stopped playing. After Wu Di received the ball, he began to break through in the face of Kirilenko, and the Jazz lacked Oku inside, and Wu Di began to be unscrupulous.

Kirilenko tried very hard to block Wu Di, but unfortunately, his physical fitness was not as good as Wu Di. After squeezing twice, he was squeezed to the side, and watched Wu Di enter the inner line.

Millsap came over to make up for the defense, but Wu Di didn't even dodge, grabbed the ball directly in his hand, and directly started to take three steps. Millsap immediately stood still, if he moved again, Wu Di would hit him reasonably and collided.

Wu Di laughed, Millsap was fooled, and as soon as he ran out of a step, Wu Di kicked the floor, got up high, and threw the ball. Millsap was too late to pounce because he was standing, so he could only stretch out his hand meaninglessly and signal that he was on the defensive.

Millsap scratched his head a little remorsefully, but he didn't know that if he didn't stand still, Wu Di would definitely crash into it directly, just like he had ridden Bynum and buckled Millsap.

The Rockets fans cheered for Wu Di, and their feelings for Wu Di were mixed. They love to watch Wu Di play because Wu Di plays with a lot of passion and this is a player they like very much. But the Rockets didn't reuse Wu Di this season, much to the disappointment of fans, who are expected to become the Rockets' third giant, just as Rajon Rondo is hailed as the fourth giant in the Celtics.

It's a pity, I don't know why, Adelman just doesn't need Wu Di, and there are even rumors that the Rockets are looking for a home for Wu Di, and they want to trade Wu Di.

Fans expressed great regret about the news, they can't influence the operation of the management, even if the management trades out the Yao Mai combination, they can't stop it, let alone just a Wu Di.

Wu Di's goal did not affect the morale of the Jazz, who continued to attack as usual. But it's a pity that they spent a lot of effort to score, but they were easily erased by Wu Di, and even the whole team didn't score as much as Wu Di.

The rhythm of the Jazz's game is blocking, picking, picking, and picking, while the rhythm of the Rockets is Wu Di, Wu Di, and Wu Di.

In four minutes, the Jazz team only scored 8 points, and Wu Di himself scored 13 points, all of which were scored by Wu Di's shooting breakthrough.

With Wu Di's crazy score at the end of the second quarter, the Rockets led by 7 points into the second half.

In the second half, the Yao Mai combination returned to the court again, and the blocking and dismantling tactics started again. The Rockets' blocking and dismantling is basically based on the cooperation of Yao Mai and Yao Wu, which is simple and effective.

"Yes, just play at this pace and we can win this fight." Adelman gave Wu Di a rare smile.

Wu Di nodded silently, he was not a dog, so he leaned up and wagked his tail when he gave a smile. On the court, he will try his best to play, but if you have a good relationship with Adelman, forget it!

In the second half, the Jazz worked hard to chase points, but the Rockets played amazing defense, allowing the Jazz to have few good chances. Throughout the second half, the Jazz had 6 or 7 24-second offensive violations, which shows how tightly the Rockets defended.

The Rockets, who won the first game, were very happy, and the Jazz who lost were a little depressed, they felt that today's ball was a little inexplicable, and they didn't know what the real reason for the loss was.
