Chapter 692 Rhythm One
"The Warriors' rhythm is terrible. The Rockets played their usual defense."

"If this continues, the Warriors will only score about 80 points in four quarters. This is the score they scored in the three quarters of the previous game against the Suns. How can the Rockets limit the Warriors to this point?"

"If the game continues like this, the Rockets have a high probability of winning."

As soon as the first quarter ended, many people believed that the Rockets played a very high-quality game, and the entire rhythm of the game was firmly in their own hands. Relatively speaking, the Warriors performed much worse than expected.

The two sides have entered the rotation time of the substitute lineup.

The Warriors put on Monta Ellis, Matt Barnes and Biedrins, basically an eight-man rotation.

The Rockets chose a 9-man rotation. Luthor Hyde, Juwan Howard and Dikambe Mutombo took the lead to replace them. After playing for a few minutes, Vasilis Spanoulis was replaced.

In the regular season, Spann played very well against the Warriors. In the last round against the Mavericks, he also performed very well. He won the trust of coach Van Gundy and successfully entered the regular rotation of the Rockets.

The Warriors replaced Trevor Ariza, also reaching a nine-man rotation.

In less than 5 minutes, Ariza was replaced again, and the Warriors replaced Yang Di and Danny Granger. After a series of adjustments, Yang Di played with a substitute.

Monta Ellis was not in the same state as when he played against the Suns. In the last round against the Suns, Monta Ellis seemed to be on drugs. He averaged 18.9 points per game and became the third in command of the Warriors.

The Rockets' No. 1 defense is not better than the Suns, but this slow pace makes Monta Ellis feel very painful, and it seems that he doesn't even feel good.

Two jumpers missed and a layup was interfered with and rolled out.

At 5 minutes and 22 seconds of the second quarter, Yang Di helped Monta Ellis cover, and Monta Ellis stepped in and made a quick layup and hit his first goal of the game.

At this time, the Warriors made a second lineup adjustment, Ray Allen replaced, Fisher also played, and Monta Ellis rested.

He looked a little depressed. In such a big competition, he couldn't play the role of the microwave oven, and returned to the bench with his head down.

The Rockets attacked and Yao Ming received the ball in a low post after guiding the ball.

After catching the ball, he turned around and pretended to shoot. Tyson Chandler was tricked into jumping up. Yao Ming took his steps to break through, and Yang Di immediately came to help defend.

Yao Ming's three-and-a-half-step throw layup, Yang Di jumped up and interfered, and missed.

Yang Di jumped up on the spot, took off the rebound, and when he landed, he turned around beautifully and started to advance with strides.

"Fast attack!"

It is not the first time that Yang Di has grabbed a backcourt rebound, but after grabbing a backcourt rebound this time, he directly and flexibly got rid of Hayes and Yao Ming, took the lead, and immediately showed a speed advantage when he dribbled. Rush Rockets halftime.

Once in the running, he becomes unstoppable, heavy truck-like, on a rampage.

Mai Di's pupils shrank suddenly, and he stepped forward without fear to delay Yang Di.

But Yang Di changed direction forward, switched his right hand to his left to control the ball, and at the same time stretched out his right hand to block, blocking McGrady's extended arm. Once he exerted strength, he ran faster.

The lineup was widened all of a sudden, and the Rockets' defensive rhythm was shattered.

Yang Di rushed into the three-point line, and only the thin Alston was defending in front of him. Alston weighed his thin arms and Yang Di's strong body like a bull, and decisively chose to give up this defense. Yang Di dunked in the air and completed the whole game.

Yang Di landed, picked up the bounced basketball, threw it outside the court, and retreated back to defend. At this time, Yao Ming ran to the center line, and he retreated directly to prepare to attack before halftime.

"Hold on!"

Alston yelled, pretending that nothing happened just now, took possession of the ball across half court, then passed it to McGrady at 45 degrees, ran to the bottom corner and ambushed.

Maddie: "."

Yao Ming came out to pick and roll, McGrady and Yao Ming picked and rolled, but the effect was not good. Danny Granger alertly approached McGrady and followed McGrady to pass the pick and roll to defend.

McGrady switched hands and dribbled, pulled back and walked around Yao Ming's pick-and-roll again, still not getting rid of Danny Granger.

At this time, Yao Ming went down, Tyson Chandler went around to defend Yao Ming, and did not give Yao Ming a chance to catch the ball. Seeing that time was running out, McGrady began to dribble and singled out Danny Granger.

After lucking twice, he found that Danny Granger was a little far away from him, so he directly pulled up a jumper and shot a three-pointer.

The offensive choices were poor, Danny Granger was one step away, but the interference was unambiguous at all, and the long arms gave him a natural defensive talent, just covering McGrady's eyes.

McGrady can't see anything, and shoots three-pointers by feeling.

"Clang~"

The basketball bounced, and Yang Di, who was stuck in the main position under the basket, took a step forward and flew to pick off the rebound.

Hayes reacted quickly this time. He didn't rush to retreat, and directly forced Yang Di without giving Yang Di the space to dribble.

At this time, Danny Granger had already started a fast break, and the moment the blindfold defense was completed, he made a fast break.

It's just that this time because Yang Di was delayed, he didn't pass the ball out immediately, and Danny Granger didn't have a chance to fast break.

Fisher is ready to push forward steadily.

Suddenly a black shadow sprang out from his side, beckoning to him for the ball while running.

"what's the situation!"

Fisher took a closer look, and Yang Di appeared out of nowhere, and ran to the frontcourt. There was no one guarding him, and he immediately passed the ball quickly from a short distance.

After giving it to Yang Di, Yang Di has already thrown off Hayes, dribbling and sprinting.

Yao Ming was ready to defend, but Yang Di had an amazing impact. At this time, Battier let go of Ray Allen to prevent Yang Di from advancing to the inside.

Yang Di turned his head and glanced at Ray Allen, which scared Battier to brake immediately.

The corners of Yang Di's mouth turned up slightly, leaned over to accelerate, and overtook forcibly from Battier's left side. Without paying attention, he even deceived the defensive master.

Only then did Battier realize that McGrady had already filled his position. How could Yang Di give up such a good opportunity and pass it to the outside line?
Yao Ming watched Yang Di rushing towards him, and remembered the scene where he was dunked by him more than a year ago.

"come!"

He gave a loud drink.

Yang Di stepped on the ground and flew up, seemingly wanting to block him again regardless of his care.

Yao Ming moved his body forward and increased his initial speed. Yang Di's impact was too exaggerated. Without the kinetic energy of this hedge, he might be knocked out by Yang Di.

"boom!"

The two collided like planets, making a loud noise.

Yang Di bowed and lifted the basketball, placed it behind his head, avoiding Yao Ming's block.

The body twisted slightly, and the side pressed the ball down.

In the blink of an eye, Yao Ming only felt that his arm seemed to be a little slower. Yang Di waved his hand at an extremely fast speed, passed through his defensive area, and grabbed the basket.

"Bang!"

Shocked all four.
