Chapter Seventy-Two: The Monkey Dominates (Two More Votes!) )

By the time Raillin replaced Uncle Mu in the second quarter, the Rockets were already trailing by 17 points.

At this time, O'Neal was still on the court, from the beginning to the present, only after a two-minute break in the first quarter, O'Neal, who played ten minutes, scored 11 points and 5 rebounds in the first quarter, and his performance was eye-catching.

After Leylin came on the court, he went straight to the basket and stood by O'Neal's side.

"Hi, rookie. You are very brave, but there is a big gap between you and Yao! ”

Leylin didn't expect O'Neill to compare himself to Yao Ming.

The current Lei Lin is not Yao Ming's opponent back then.

Back then, when Yao Shark faced off for the first time, although Yao Ming couldn't prevent O'Neal, three consecutive blocks were enough to humiliate O'Neal.

But what about yourself?

So far, all that's been more than a two-pointer in O'Neal's head and a rebound.

Those two points were scored by luck.

His offensive means are single, and he can't threaten O'Neal under the basket at all, even if he pulls to the top of the basket, he doesn't have a stable jump shot to support it.

Think of Yao Ming's jump shot, hook hand.

He is simply an inside blue-collar worker, which is really not wrong in what Limbery said.

No, you must master your jump shot as soon as possible.

Feeling that his offensive means are single, Leylin desperately hopes that he can improve his jump shooting percentage.

Clang.

The basketball smashed into the hoop and bounced high.

Leylin jumped up quickly and reached for the basketball with both hands.

But before Leylin could catch the basketball, O'Neal wriggled his fat body and jumped.

After being hit by O'Neill's strong body, he directly deflected Leylin off track.

Watch as O'Neal snatches the basketball from his head.

"Uncle's!"

After scolding secretly, Lei Lin quickly returned to the defense.

I was already very satisfied with my weight of 118 kilograms, but when I met O'Neill, it was a weak explosion.

The Suns broke fast, and Nash hit a three-pointer directly from the outside, and the difference was suddenly widened to 20 points.

Adelman called a timeout directly.

Directly replaced Maddy, Scola, replaced by Landry, Jackson.

This substitution directly announced the abandonment of the game.

After the Rockets replaced their main players, the Suns then replaced O'Neal and replaced Dio. However, Nash, Small, Hill and Barbossa are still on the court. It seems that D'Antoni will be hoping to secure the victory.

After the Suns lost O'Neal on the inside, Leylin suddenly had a feeling that there were no tigers and monkeys in the mountains to dominate.

In the face of Xiao Si's defense, Lei Lin successfully hit two consecutive strong shots, and also made Xiao Si a foul.

scored six points with free throws, giving Leylin an illusion.

Is this Xiao Si?

According to Lei Lin's understanding, people with strong physical fitness will have strong defensive ability.

But on the contrary, Smalls is very physical, relying on jumpers and dunks on the offensive end, coupled with Nash's passing, which has allowed him to average 20+ per game over the past few seasons, making him one of the top stars.

Defensively, though. Xiao Si is really not very good.

When I used to watch the forum, many people were there to spray Xiaosi's defense, and Lei Lin didn't believe it, but now he can't help but believe it.

After popping Smalls three times in a row, the Suns immediately changed their defensive players. When Leylin came to the inside, Dio appeared directly beside Leylin.

Looking at the French, Leylin was even more daring.

Although the Frenchman is a little more defensive than Smalls, he is considered a player with excellent defensive ability within the Suns. But the difference in height and weight made it a little difficult for Dio to defend the No. 5 position.

After Raelin caught the ball a few times, he turned around and made a layup to score two points with ease.

And so it went on until the end of the second quarter, when the Rockets were 60-74 and trailed by 14 points.

Leylin scored 11 points on 5-of-7 shooting in the second half of the second quarter while grabbing four rebounds.

However, this score made Adelman entangled, the gap of 14 points, not big or small, if it is good, it can be recovered in one quarter. If it's not good, you won't be able to catch it back overnight.

After hesitating for a while, Adelman decided to give it a go, after all, if he lost this game, he would fall directly to fifth in the rankings. It is highly likely that they will play the Jazz in the playoffs, which is definitely bad news for the Rockets.

So at the beginning of the second half of the game, Adelman sent a full main lineup, while Reeling sat on the bench, and Adelman's arrangement was to allow Reelin to come on the field to steal points after O'Neal was off.

With Maddy's crazy shooting, the Rockets trailed by nine points at 78-87 with more than six minutes into the third quarter.

"Ray, get ready to play!"

As D'Antoni replaced O'Neill, Reeling heard Adelman's shouts.

Immediately took off his training clothes.

Honk!

After replacing Uncle Mu, Lei Lin rushed into the field excitedly.

After receiving a pass from a teammate, Reelin carried Dio and hit it there, and then turned around and put it to the basket.

Compared with the Rockets, who let Leylin play hard, the Suns still relied on jump shots to end the battle.

The closer you get to the basket, the easier it will naturally be to score.

Although the Suns have mid-to-long-range jumpers from Small, Nash, Hill and even Dio, there is no guarantee of 100% shooting after all.

With the Rockets tied the score at 86-89 in four minutes, D'Antoni called a timeout.

"Well done! Guys, this is an unexpected game, Ray, you did a good job, next they will definitely go to O'Neal, I don't care what method you use, I will never be able to make O'Neal score! Do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

Although he couldn't score points on O'Neal, he cut nearly 15 points on the heads of Dio and Xiaosi, allowing Reelin to regain his confidence.

"There are less than two minutes left in this quarter, there is no adequate preparation, absolutely do not shoot, be steady, every time the offensive time runs out, and then let's decide the winner in the fourth quarter!"

"Good!"

Honk......

After the timeout, D'Antoni was replaced by O'Neill.

However, at this time, the psychology of the players on both sides has changed subtly, from leading by 20 points to only leading by 3 points now, and the Suns players have shown impatience.

Substitute Gordon Girisek made a mistake when he passed the ball, and Maddie made a direct steal.

The Rockets players went down quickly, and between offensive and defensive transitions, the Suns showed their strong team style.

Dio followed Scola to death, while Maddie's side was constantly distracting.

Seeing that the opportunity to break fast was lost, the Rockets fell into a positional battle. Maddie hands the ball to Scola.

Clang!

Scola, with the interference of Dior, misses the shot.

Maddie lunged to the basket and grabbed the rebound with one hand.

BOOM!

Beep!

Jump straight on the spot for a dunk.

At the same time, a foul on Christian Dior was also created.

Swish!

He hit a free throw and hit a three-pointer, and Maddie helped the team tie the score.

"Beautiful. Well done! ”

"Victory!"

The Rockets' bench was jubilant after Madiga's free throw, and for the first time they saw hope of winning in this game.

Clang!

The Suns missed the attack, and Dio's shot smashed on the basket.

Such a crisp sound is simply a blessing for Team Rocket.

"Ho ......"

Leylin and O'Neal jumped almost at the same time, and Leylin, who was not sure to grab the rebound, slapped the basketball directly outside the three-point line.

Alston picks up the ball and breaks fast.

Coming to the basket for Nash's interference, a return pass, Maddie hit a mid-range jumper.

91-89。

At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets took the lead, and for more than a minute, neither side was able to score.

With Dio's three-point hit, the third quarter ended.

The Rockets went into the fourth quarter with a two-point advantage.
