Chapter 821 3 Strong Fighting for Hegemony

() Yao Ming’s comeback premiere would not have been a success without the perfect 5 minutes in the second half, but now Yao Ming’s comeback is considered very successful. The 5 minutes in the first half just didn’t feel like the game, Yao Ming adapted to the game very quickly, and quickly found the feeling, which brought him success in the second half.

The Seattle SuperSonics made a good deal, the Houston Rockets made a bad deal, and for nearly a month, Chris Wilcox has been playing more minutes and taking on more important plays. After the status, the data did not increase significantly, because the degradation of the inside strength caused a decline in the efficiency of the outside attack. The Houston Rockets have played so far, with a winning percentage of less than 50.00%, ranking No.7 in the West.

Although on the surface, Houston's ranking has not dropped much, but in essence, if it were not for taking advantage of the schedule and opponents, the Rockets would not be in this position at all, and they can win games more often by relying on players After losing Yao Ming, Adelman still can't change the team into Princeton's style of play, because Princeton has two points for players, one is to run, and the other is to pass the ball.

When Yao Ming was still in the Rockets, many people attributed the reason why the Rockets could not beat Princeton to Yao Ming. They believed that Yao Ming's speed was too slow and his passing ability was insufficient. As a result, now that Yao Ming has left, the Rockets still can't play Princeton.

Because McGrady, who is in charge of the Rockets now, seldom runs. After getting the ball, he either attacks or passes the ball directly to others. The same is true for Ster, the ball basically stops in his hands, and he doesn't like to run when he doesn't have the ball in his hands.

Princeton's style of play is not a successful style of play. Except for the success in college, there is only the gorgeous Sacramento Kings in the league. It's just a strong team in the regular season, similar to the current Phoenix Suns, and because they always use evasive play, Shaquille O'Neal calls it the queen team.

In this aspect, it is really incomparable with other triangle offensive tactics. The triangle offense needs a point forward, and what Princeton needs is a point forward. The formation, just like the San Antonio Spurs, seems to play some simple tactics, but in fact, the tactical literacy league has been unmatched.

The Supersonics inherited the San Antonio Spurs' style of play, starting with simple tactics, and then gradually increasing the complexity of tactics. Like the Spurs, every offense needs to play a dozen plays.

In the past, no one in the team had that ability, so when the team scored at the basket, it was usually the outside players who broke through and scored. The real inside ball was rarely used to attack the basket, but now that there is an extra Yao Ming, it cannot be ignored. This part, Carlesimo was observing Yao Ming's ability in training, while thinking about how to increase this part of tactics.

However, before Yao Ming's playing time limit is lifted, the team's offense cannot be counted on him, but the homework must be done ahead of time. Fortunately, Stephen and Yao Ming have cooperated before, and they know Yao Ming very well. Opponents are two different things. The research you did when you were an opponent cannot be used when you are a teammate, so Carlesimo asked people to carefully collect the video of Yao Ming from the beginning of this game to prepare for the formulation of tactics.

After defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Sonics set off overnight to Memphis, ready to play the second game of this back-to-back. The Memphis Grizzlies have great potential, but right now, there is no threat to the Sonics.

Talking about the young guards in the league, there are the Chicago Bulls in the east and the Memphis Grizzlies in the west. Look at the lineup put out by the Grizzlies in this game, center Marc Gasol, power forward Darrell Arthur, Jr. Forward Rudy Gay, shooting guard OJ Mayo, point guard Mike Conley.

OJ Mayo is the No. 27 pick this year, while Michael Conley was the No. 48 pick last year, Rudy Gay was the No. [-] pick the year before, only Darrell Arthur is the No. [-] pick this year and Marc Gasol is the [-] pick last year. No. Xiu, the two of them are a little lower.

This is the youngest lineup in the league. All five players hold rookie contracts. The score clearly encountered great difficulties.

But at this time, Marc Gasol began to show his ability slowly. Although he could not pass the ball like his brother Pau Gasol, he was much better at protecting the basket than his brother Pau Gasol. , and the offensive effect at the basket is obviously more threatening than Pau Gasol. In several confrontations, Coupard couldn't take advantage of him.

At this time, Carlesimo replaced Yao Ming. Although the two have played against each other many times in the international arena, it is the first time they have played against each other in the league. Relying on his understanding and adaptation to the rules, Yao Ming quickly caused a foul on Marc Gasol without falling behind.

However, Marc Gasol also appeared to be very mature, unmoved at all, and continued to fight against Yao Ming steadily. Yao Ming had no choice but to take him for a while, and the Sonics had to shift the focus of offense to the outside.

Although Mike Conley's offensive options are not very good, his defense is extremely good. Even after Watson was off the field and Russell Westbrook was replaced, Mike Conley has been right for Westbrook in so many games. He restricted the best one, of course, it may also be that others did not pay attention to Westbrook.

The second back-to-back game once again affected the state of the Sonics. The two sides played until the first half of the fourth quarter before a clear victory was drawn, especially the 5 minutes when Yao Ming appeared on the court again. Provided great help.

There is no problem with such a weak team, because even if there is no cooperation, the team can be won by the individual ability of the players. After defeating the Memphis Grizzlies, the Sonics ended the first month of the game. In the middle of the month, the Sonics played a total of [-] games and only lost five of them. However, in the record list, they slipped to the third place in the West, surpassed by the Los Angeles Lakers, and the San Antonio Spurs still ranked Fourth in the Western Conference, but their record is a bit worse than the first three teams.
