Chapter 117: Powerful Rocket
After Liu Su and Yao Ming had dinner, they went to the stadium together, and they were going to play in the evening, and both of them needed to practice a little and move their bodies. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This year's Rockets have a strong lineup, starting lineup Yao Ming, Howard, Battier, Maddy, and Alston. This lineup is very strong, it has to attack and attack, it has to defend and defend, it can be fast and slow, and the tactics are very rich. Yao Ming and Maddie have super offensive power, Howard, Battier, and Alston all have strong scoring ability, Yao Ming, Howard, Battier, and Maddy's defense is not bad, play slow Yao Ming, play fast and Alstom.
The bench lineup is also good, and Uncle Mu is in unabated form. Hayes is still going strong. Novak and Bowen are also good, Rutherhead has a lot of potential, and Sura is also a good substitute.
Take a look at the current lineup of the Clippers, Carman, Webb, Ryan Gomez, Rose, Liu Su. Kaman is a lot worse than Yao Minglai, Webber is no longer as brave as he used to be, Ryan Gomez is good and bad, Rose's offensive ability is too poor, and the defense is not as good as Battier, only Liu Su is a strong point.
There was a weaker squad on the bench, with Breracia, Cresssmith, Ricky Davis, Rajon Rondo plus two newcomers just reported. David Lee got his hands on the palm during pre-game training and is currently being examined, the situation is not optimistic, at least out for a month or two, and in serious cases, it may be reimbursed for the season.
Liu Su also began to worry, he talked and laughed with Yao Ming before the game, and after he came back, he received this bad news, God is going to play him! Now that the Clippers' lineup is already weak, it is still downsized?
As a result, as soon as he got on the court, Yao Ming himself blew up the Clippers' interior line, and Carman could still jam Yao Ming before, but since Yao Ming gained weight, it has become more and more difficult. In addition, it is Yao Ming's outbreak period recently, and Yao Ming has shown demonic abilities at both offensive and defensive ends.
When attacking, he has a good hand, and he has teammates who can pull away others, so that he can unscrupulously single out Carman or Webb. On the defensive end, Carman couldn't score inside, and his shooting was heavily disrupted, shooting 1-of-5 in the first quarter.
Webb faced Howard, there was not much difference, although Juwan Howard was old, but he was also better than Webb, who was injured enough to retire. Webb can only buy and sell strength on the offensive end, and the defensive end is equivalent to air, and can only be used against veterans.
Ryan Gomez vs. Battier, Ryan Gomez can defend Battier, as long as he doesn't make up for it casually, it's basically nothing. But Battier doesn't defend Ryan Gomez, he defends Liu Su, and it is his role to prevent Liu Su from scoring easily.
Rose vs. Maddy, Rose defends Maddie, not very easy to defend. Maddie is a swingman at the front, and Rose is also a swingman at the guard, but Maddie is a lot taller than Rose, and Maddie is good at dry pulling, which is particularly difficult to defend and requires extremely fast reaction speed. Rose's reaction speed is not very fast, and he is too weak in the face of Maddy, but the Clippers have him who can defend Maddie, Ryan Gomez is not fast enough, and Liu Su is too short, with a difference of nearly 10 centimeters.
Maddie doesn't defend Rose, but Ryan Gomez, and it's Alston who defends Rose. Alston faced Liu Su's defense on the offensive end and was difficult to do, so he could only hand it to Maddie in the middle of the court or fall into the interior to Yao Ming, if it weren't for his solid ability to dribble and protect the ball, even dribbling through the half would be a problem.
In the first quarter, relying on Liu Su, the two teams played an evenly matched. Liu Su's aftermath is still good, and he shot 4 of 4 three-pointers, all of which were projected by blocking and dismantling Battier.
But in the second quarter, Liu Su's hand began to decline. No one can keep their hands hot every game, and no one can keep their hands hot for the whole game. Liu Su's best game was the last game, and he maintained his hand for more than three quarters, making him the league's first scorer.
Maybe it was because he overdrew his touch in the last game, and he only maintained his touch for one quarter in this game before sliding rapidly. There is no choice but to start attacking the inside.
Dodge Battier by blocking and dismantling, passing Juwan Howard, attracting Yao Ming to assist Carman. Or draw Howard and Battier to the pack and assist Webb.
None of the benches who came on the court in the second quarter were in great shape, only Crims-Smith was strong and used his height to score a lot of points on Hayes' head. Hayes is still too short, although he is super powerful, but facing the inside line that will shoot is equivalent to a colander and giving the opponent points.
After being tasted a few balls, Kressmith began to feel the touch. The three rookies selected by the Clippers this year are all okay, not as good as last year, but they are also much better than other teams. Kressmith is showing strong momentum, and Rajon Rondo is also doing well, and both are expected to make the All-Star rookie break.
In the second half, the Clippers' offense still did not improve much, and Liu Su rested for 4 minutes, and the rest of the time was on the court. Battier created too much trouble for him, not letting him get open seats easily, and Rajon Rondo was also a little weak in the face of Alstom, the speed was not as fast as Alstom, the strength was superior but could not be squeezed, and he could not score if he was stuck by Alston.
The first half of the Rockets was Yao Ming's performance stage, and the second half was Maddy's performance stage. After the beginning of this world, Maddie's desire to compete decreased, and she began to give Yao Ming a hand. At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming was fed the ball, and only after Yao Ming was short of physical strength did he start to play.
In fact, this has something to do with the playing style of the two, Yao Ming's physical strength can only play for 30 minutes. When he was in the national team, Liu Su also cooperated with Yao Ming in this way, and handed over to Yao Ming to attack in the early stage, Liu Su went down to attack quickly, and when Yao Ming ran out of physical strength, he was replaced by someone else, and Liu Su began to attack in the first place, so as to win the first place in the international competition.
The Rockets may have this style of play after watching the Chinese team's game, Maddie and Liu Su are not competitive characters, and Yao Ming is good, so they can use this style of play. If it had been someone else, he would have been fighting with Yao Ming for the ball a long time ago, and it would be impossible for Yao Ming to come first.
In this way of playing, Yao Ming can exert his greatest power, and Maddie can do insurance. In the second half, after the Rockets replaced Uncle Mu, the interior defense became stronger, Hayes grabbed rebounds very well, Maddy, Alstom, and Battier could all play fast offense, and the counterattack ability became stronger instantly, and it was not enough to rely on Liu Su and Ross or Rajon Rondo to defend more.
Liu Su also turned on the scoring mode, but the feeling was really bad, and with Battier's interference, Liu Su scored 48 points, but was still 5 points short of defeat. The rest of the Clippers only had Carman and Kressmith playing well, with Carman scoring 17 points thanks to Liu Su's impact on the inside, Kress Smith scoring 16 points, and the others did not play double-doubles.
Rockets Yao Ming 32 points, Maddy 33 points, Battier 13 points, Novak 11 points, and everyone else also scored. According to this situation, the Rockets will have a very good record this year, and as long as there are no injuries, they will definitely be the favorites to win the championship.
