Chapter 637 Counterattack II

Yao Ming wiped the sweat off his face, feeling slightly tired, but it was much better than last season.

Since this season, he feels that his physical function has reached the peak of his career, and because of the change in his style of play, his personal score has increased a lot. There are not too many foul troubles, and he has enough physical strength in the fourth quarter.

"Warrior is really strong, Yang Di can't defend at all."

Hayes sighed, feeling a lot of pressure on his body.

Hayes is a player from the University of Kentucky. After graduation, he failed in the draft. No team selected a short insider who was 22 years old in the draft.After that, he found a job in the Rockets. Assistant coach Tom Thibodeau's insight helped him grow gradually, and he formed a gorgeous transformation this year, becoming the Rockets' starter in one fell swoop.

Hayes has become a representative of inspirational figures, and his defensive skills are increasing day by day, which greatly reduces Yao Ming's defensive tasks. Yao Ming began to switch to easier defense-based defense tasks.

But Hayes feels that he still can't guard Yang Di. Yang Di is about 10 cm taller than him, and with the difference in wingspan, as long as Yang Di wants to shoot, he basically can't cover it. Putting psychological pressure on Yang Di, the effect is very general.

"What I'm more afraid of is his shooting. If he just breaks through, I'm not too worried." Hayes said.

Yao Ming nodded. He knew that Yang Di was difficult to defend. Just kidding, he averaged more points per game than him. He was also a player known for his defense. He was skilled and proficient in various offensive methods around the basket.

Yao Ming said unswervingly: "As long as the Warriors' outside firepower does not open, we can still win in today's situation, and we will definitely win."

It seems to encourage teammates, it seems to cheer yourself up.

Yang Di rested for 3 minutes in the last quarter, and then Montgomery replaced him.

Correspondingly, the Rockets also made personnel adjustments. Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady played earlier. The most critical game can only be to allow the main players to play for a few more minutes.

On the court, the Rockets lead the Warriors by 84 points 82 to 2, and the lead is already very small.

Fortunately, there is still the advantage of the ball. After Yao Ming came on the court, Spanoulis, who performed well, controlled the ball from the outside, and then handed it to Yao Ming who wanted the ball in the low post.

Biedrinsi's hands were about to go limp. Yao Ming's huge body was bumping towards him like a mountain. He only felt a numbness in his arms, and he was forced to adjust his steps backwards, like a weak reed.

"boom!"

The second time Yao Ming hit him, Biedrins couldn't bear it anymore and took a big step back. Yao Ming immediately turned around under the basket, stepped to the front, and made a fake shot.

The reaction speed was too fast, and Yang Di, who came to the side to help defend, was deceived and flew over Yao Ming's head.

Yao Ming got up again, and after pushing Biedrins away, the basket grabbed the basket and dunked successfully.

Fans at the Toyota Center cheered, Yao Ming's dunk is really domineering.

Biedrins spat out his braces, quickly ran to the bottom line to serve, and after dialing to Lou Williams, Lou Williams rushed forward.

In the frontcourt, Yang Di came out and went to the upper line to catch the ball.

Hayes was forced to also move to the upper line, Yang Di received the ball in his hand, dribbled the ball to the middle, Lou Williams took the ball from Yang Di again, and Yang Di helped him to block the Sis who defended him tightly. Pan.

Lou Williams took the ball comfortably, dribbled the ball with his right hand, and broke to the right.

After Yang Di blocked Span, his body turned around, Hayes could only follow Louis Williams first, Yang Di cut in, and Span firmly blocked him.

Williams returned the ball to Yang Di, and Yang Di caught the ball and leaned back against Span, dribbled the ball and turned around, and rushed in.

Yao Ming assisted in the defense, and Yang Di raised his arms high. After a slight confrontation in the air, he threw the ball for a layup with a low hand.

Yang Di took off for the second time after landing, and almost didn't interfere with the ball attack by himself.

86 to 84, the Rockets lead by 2 points.

In the game against the Warriors, basically other teams scored very high, mainly because the Warriors seldom had an offensive fault. When the shooting percentage is very low, there are only two or three games with abnormal shooting percentage in a season.

McGrady advanced with the ball and called Yao Ming to come out for a pick-and-roll.

Ariza's defense is particularly active, taking a step back to bypass the defense, and double-teaming McGrady with Biedrins, which is also one of the most common tactics for breaking the pick-and-roll.

Biedrins was very happy in his heart, this kind of work was much easier than fighting Yao Ming just now.

McGrady was double-teamed and wanted to pass directly to Yao Ming, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Yang Di who was quietly moving over. He immediately vigilantly did not pass the ball. Then McGrady leaned down and took a step to the right. overtake.

Ariza is very tight with the ground, McGrady has no good offensive opportunities.

The ball was given to Spann who was catching up from the wing. Spann touched the ground with his toes, caught the ball and made a reverse breakthrough, even passing the defender Louis Williams.

"Lu Wei's defense is really poor!" Ron Adams said bluntly.

Montgomery also covered his face and rubbed his chin, with a trace of helplessness on his face, "Louis Williams is such a two-faced player. He can play his heat almost as soon as he plays on the offensive end. He is an excellent sixth man on the team. But the defensive end is a colander, anyone can easily beat him, and Monta is slightly better than him in this regard."

Spann passed Lu Wei and hit a jumper with an emergency stop.

88 to 84, the Rockets lead by 4 points.

Yang Di could see that the entire Rockets team really wanted to win this game, and their fighting spirit was even higher than that of the Warriors. Although the Warriors also wanted to win this game, for now, the Spurs still had a The Warriors have a difference in wins, and if they lose this game, they can still guarantee the third high position in the Western Conference.

And if the Rockets lose this game, they will be farther away from the Spurs, and the next game will be more stressful.

Montgomery waved and replaced Tyson Chandler. Although Chandler couldn't guard Yao Ming, he was better than the thin Biedrins.

Yao Ming controlled the game, relying on McGrady's point ball and still hitting the mid-range, his personal score rose to 30 points.

Yang Di only had 25 points at this time, and Yao Ming's performance in this game was better than Yang Di's.

The Chinese fans were the most excited. This derby played the picture they wanted to see. Yang Di and Yao Ming were the protagonists on the field.

In the last 2 minutes and 17 seconds, Yang Di broke through to the penalty area and made a flying dunk. The Rockets called a timeout.

Hayes' rhythm was a little messed up at this time, and he was completely led by the nose by Yang Di. Although Yang Di's score was not very explosive, he played with ease, making false shots, fake shots and real shots.

Chandler of the Warriors on the other side was also uncomfortable. He received his fifth foul on Yao Ming, and after another foul, he was about to graduate from fouls and had to rest.
