Chapter 694 System One
At halftime, the Warriors led the Rockets by 49 points 43 to 6.

杨迪是勇士队表现最好的球员，9投6中得到14分5个篮板还有3次封盖，没有一次失误。

而火箭这边，姚明8投4中得到12分4个篮板，麦迪12投4中得到10分，其余球员都没有上双。

Although McGrady scored 10 points, he was the player with the most shots in the first half, and his efficiency was not too high.

When he first entered the league, McGrady started as a defensive player. In the Raptors, Carter was the main attacker and he was the main defense. In the last season of the Raptors, as a guard, he averaged 1.1 steals and 1.9 blocks per game. , The performance of talent shocked the entire league, which led to the relentless pursuit of the Magic.

But McGrady's career shooting percentage has shown a climbing pattern. In the Raptors, the three-point shooting percentage is less than 3%. In these peak seasons of the Magic, the average shooting percentage is 45%. The three-point shooting percentage is as high as 35%. Even when Hao won the scoring title in the 02-03 season, the three-point shooting percentage was as high as 38.6%, which is no more than a super shooter.

As a result, after joining the Rockets and partnering with Yao Ming, it is reasonable to say that there is a big man inside to attract firepower, and the shooting percentage should increase. However, McGrady’s shooting percentage has been declining year by year. Last season was affected by injuries, and it was only 40.6%. At 3, the three-point shooting percentage is not high, around 2%, 3%.

In the regular season, McGrady shot 4% from the field, 3 from three-pointers, and 33.1 from free throws.

Throughout the Rockets period to the present, McGrady has reduced the number of inside breakthroughs, and his overall shooting percentage has declined. McGrady's jump shots are picturesque, and it is very normal to hit the iron more than a dozen times in a game.

The Rockets seem to be used to this style of play, constantly competing with their opponents in a slow pace.

It doesn't matter how many times you miss the basket, the key is to prevent the opponent's shots.

Van Gundy and Thibodeau brought super defense to the Rockets, making the Rockets the top five defensive team in the league, and it is also the key to being able to reach the Western Conference Finals.

However, Yang Di felt that if the Rockets continued to fight like this, they would probably not be able to beat their warriors. The warriors would not slow down, but would only get faster and faster. They could prevent the attack from the position, but they also couldn't prevent the thunderous offensive and defensive transition.

The second half begins.

In the fan stands, the fans returned one after another with drinks and popcorn.

They watch the game like watching a movie. In fact, there is not much difference. One is an art performance and the other is a sports competition.

Although the Warriors didn't score high, the Rockets scored even lower and took the lead. The fans didn't panic at all. It seemed that the Warriors had a great chance of winning.

After the game started, there was a loud cheering sound in the Oracle Arena.

"Beat the Houstonians!"

"Keep attacking, let them taste the power of hot pot in the Bay Area!"

"Yang Di is the strongest! Come on MVP!"

Everyone shouted what they wanted to say, gathered together, and went straight to the eardrums of the players of the two teams. At the bottom,

It's also where it gets the most noise.

The Warriors continue to maintain a defensive counterattack policy, while the Rockets increase mid-range shots on the basis of ensuring defensive efficiency.

Van Gundy asked the players to start a life-and-death battle with the Warriors at the mid-range position. The Warriors' tactical system is completely different from the Rockets. Montgomery asked the players to either attack inside or make three-pointers from the outside. Don't try mid-range lightly.

The two teams followed their own offensive routines. The Rockets narrowed some points by relying on their steady mid-range. They were only 57 points behind the Warriors 59 to 2.

Then Ray Allen hit a three-pointer with a "snap", the Warriors 62 to 57, and they opened up another 5 points in a blink of an eye.

"It's impossible to keep going."

The players of the Rockets all adhered to this point of view. Yao Ming hit two jumpers in a row from the mid-range.

Yang Di rushed inside, causing Yao Ming to foul, and made two free throws from the free throw line.

Yao Ming turned his back and shook Tyson Chandler, cheating for a foul and playing a three-pointer, but he responded strongly.

Yang Di found that the Rockets are not weak at all, especially after Yao Ming is on the court, the huge containment force and the offensive aggressiveness of the court can steadily advance the game.

"Clang~"

Danny Granger missed a jumper, Yang Di jumped in and grabbed the rebound, and made an offensive rebound.

Yang Di called suddenly, just like Yao Ming made consecutive jump shots, he also became active on the field, rushing from left to right to complete the offense, scoring 13 points in a single quarter, helping the Warriors lead the Rockets by 78 points 74-4.

At the end of the third quarter, Yao Ming left the game early for a rest, McGrady led the team, and Yang Di stayed on the court.

This is the difference between Yang Di and Yao Ming. Yao Ming can play up to 40 minutes in a game. If Yang Di needs it, he can not rest for 1 minute in the second half.

Montgomery would not let Yang Di fight like this. The Warriors are now in the leading position. In the fourth quarter, they decisively replaced a group of chaotic masters and continued to fight and run.

Monta Ellis, as the main attacker on the bench, performed poorly in the first half.

The touch in the second half did not recover until entering the fourth quarter, when the outside line shot a cold arrow and hit a three-pointer, giving the Warriors the first point in the fourth quarter.

Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady both took a break, and the Rockets were led by Alstom.

Alston was shot in front of his face, and he was not happy. After dribbling halfway, he was about to change to Monta Ellis. The moment he dribbled and hit the ground, Monta Ellis was as aggressive Jumping out, it was a gamble to complete the steal.

The basketball rolled forward, and Monta Ellis was a big step faster than Alston visible to the naked eye.

And under the acceleration of the chase, he completed several body-leading advantages, picked up the basketball and dashed forward, stepped on the paint area with one foot, flew up, and succeeded in a one-armed slam dunk.

"Pretty!"

Yang Di was the first to stand up, standing on the sidelines and applauding.

Monta Ellis probably heard Yang Di's roar, glanced at the bench, then pointed his finger and said hello.

The audience applauded thunderously, and many fans in the Bay Area liked Monta Ellis, a young man with extremely fast speed and strong scoring ability.

The Warriors' draft vision is amazing, and Monta Ellis is already one of the best sixth men in the league.

The Warriors, on the other hand, could only rely on Alston's performance. Spann was off the field after 3 minutes in the second quarter.

Luther Hyde is an excellent three-point shooter, but his ability to handle the ball is mediocre.

As for the two inside veterans Juwan Howard and Mutombo, one can only shoot mid-range shots without defense, and the other is a center who has no independent offensive ability to protect the frame.

There are very few people on the court who can control the ball, and Van Gundy chose the simplest pick-and-roll offensive system without hesitation.
