After the pre-season, McMillan generously gave the players a few days off, only to ask them to report to the team on October 25, because the first regular season game of the new season was on the 27th. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 I don't know if the Trail Blazers are lucky or unlucky, they are once again one of eight teams to play in the opening game of the entire league, and the opponent is also interesting, the Houston Rockets, who were opponents in the first round of the playoffs last season.

In the offseason, the Rockets' roster has changed a lot, due to Yao Ming's unexpected injury during the holiday and the season is reimbursed, the Rockets' strength on the interior has been greatly lost, and the team's other core Maddy has also been unhappy with the management, and there have been rumors that Maddy is going to be traded. The biggest move of the Rockets in the summer was to trade Atai for a younger Ariza, and the young forward who made Ye Feng miserable probably hoped to give Ye Feng a disgrace in the opening game. If Ye Feng knew what he was thinking, he might scoff: After an offseason, my brother is no longer the player who is helpless against you......

The embarrassment of Yao Wumai is a headache for Rockets coach Adelman, who can only put a pocket combination on the inside. Yes, no kidding, it's just very small, Scola is good to say, as a starting power forward, he is at least 2.06 meters tall, but in the center position Rockets is Yao Ming's substitute, Hayes, who is only 1.98 meters tall. Adelman's idea is simple, and while Hayes is at a disadvantage in terms of height, he is a rare full-time defender in the low post, with a high ball quotient, a strong body, no slow movement, and a good sense of position. The reason why Hayes can play center is mainly based on his strong lower body strength, and there are many people who are taller than him in the league, but there are really not many players who score with their backs in front of him.

However, Adelman seems to have forgotten that although the Trail Blazers can also use Oden as the main point of attack, it is based on opening up the situation on the outside, and he also has Aldridge next to him who is getting better and better at shooting, and it doesn't matter if Oden can attack if he can or not. So after feeling Hayes's toughness, Oden directly told his teammates that he didn't need to give the ball to the low post, and if he couldn't open it from the outside, he would just hand it over to Ade to compete with Scola in the middle distance, and he could rely on the second attack to score. I have to say that Oden grasped Hayes's weakness, his physical confrontation is strong, but the bounce height affects his finishing ability, from another point of view, that is, the ability to grab rebounds is not strong, Oden proposed that he should fight for offensive rebounds under the basket to complete the second offense.

At Oden's insistence, Roy did not stubbornly send the ball to the low post, but just took turns with Ye Feng to control the ball and look for opportunities. His actions made Blake on the side a little bleak, which should have been his job, but Roy is both a two-way guard and captain of the team, and likes to hold the ball in his own hands, just treating him as an outside three-point shooter. Blake also knows where his flaws are, slow speed, not strong breakthrough ability, although steady, but now the last thing the Trail Blazers need is steady, so it is difficult to be marginalized in the tactical system. However, he is not yet 30 years old this year and does not want to spend time on this team, but now the management has not found a suitable opportunity to trade him for the time being, so he has to play one game at a time.

Ye Feng has some understanding of Blake's mind, but he has no pity, because he himself has a vested interest, and Blake's technical characteristics are indeed not very suitable for the team's tactical style. He is most fortunate that he can switch between with and without the ball at will, whether it is a breakthrough or a distraction when he has the ball, he is a threat when he has the ball, and when he runs empty-handed, he is a super gun on the outside of the Trail Blazers, and for the sake of the team, it is logical that Roy is willing to share the ball with him. In this game, the two of them are the two big defensive giants in the Rockets, Battier and Ariza, who should have been Ariza's main defense against Roy, but in order to compete with Ye Feng, he took the initiative to ask for a change of defense, and Battier is a good gentleman, so he went.

Originally, Ariza thought that this time he could be as good as the previous Western Conference semifinals, but Ye Feng's performance hit his self-confidence hard. Ariza still used the playoff defensive strategy, but Ye Feng did not use the playoff way to deal with it. Instead of going one-on-one with Ariza, he used his tactical understanding to summon his teammates to cooperate, easily getting rid of Ariza's defense and having an aerial relay with Oden. After a few rounds, Ariza walked up to him and said hatefully, "Are you still a man?" Do you dare to have a face-to-face battle? ”

Ye Feng smiled slightly, but his eyes were as cold as ice, and he replied in a low voice: "As you wish." ”

In the next round, Ye Feng asked Roy for the ball again, this time in the right elbow area, and deliberately waited for Ariza to come over to mark. If Maddie was there, they would know that Ye Feng was about to start using his new skills. Ariza didn't know this, he only knew that he had to defend against Ye Feng's attack, so he immediately stood behind Ye Feng, not wanting him to turn around. But after a summer of "devastation", Ye Feng no longer wanted to get an offensive opportunity by simply turning around, so he directly played a feint with his back!

Ariza is still very young after all, and if he were to be replaced by Battier, he would only care about the opponent's final shot, because all the previous feints were prepared for the shot, whether it was a heavy shoulder, a change of center of gravity, or a crotch dribble, there was no way to deceive him. But Ariza was different, so he was deceived by Ye Feng, when his center of gravity shifted, Ye Feng felt it very keenly, so he quickly turned to the other side of his center of gravity, and also stuck Ariza behind him.

Battier was shocked and came directly to help defend, but regretted it halfway through the run, because Ye Feng passed the ball to Roy from the top of his head. There wasn't much gap, and Battier was turning to catch up, but Roy had already made a shot, crisp mid-range jumper. Although it was not Ye Feng who scored by himself, he had already won a game in the one-on-one battle with Ariza, and it seemed that Ariza had no power to fight back at all.

Looking at the soulless Rocket No. 1, Ye Feng shook his finger lightly, didn't say anything, and ran back to his half. But Ariza obviously read what Ye Feng wanted to say from his movements: "Want to win me? You're much worse! ”
