Chapter 84 Yao Ming's Return of the King!
The second half of the first Suns vs. Rockets encounter begins.

Without Yao Ming in the game, not only the atmosphere of the fans at the scene was not right, but also the atmosphere of the fans in front of the TV during the broadcast was extremely bad.

Especially in Asia.

There are various speculations about Yao Ming's fall.

……

Inside the American West Arena.

The Rockets here.

Morale has also become weird.

The Rockets players thought that Yao Ming would come back in the second half, and they all had hope.

But until now there has been no good news from the locker room.

Rick Adelman, coach of the Rockets, frowned and wrinkled while sitting on the coach's bench.

He is very clear.

Dayao's status in the Rockets.

Without Yao Ming, the Rockets will be in a difficult position inside.

Even if there is a veteran Dikembe Mutombo, but a veteran is a veteran after all, he is old...

Halfway through the third quarter, the Rockets' state entered an avalanche state!
First of all, the lack of power inside...

Veteran Dikembe Mutombo lasted less than 10 minutes, although he was always strong.

Faced with the physical confrontation of the bully Stoudemire, Mutombo was a little overwhelmed.

Secondly, McGrady made a mistake in his performance...

Whether it is outside or inside, the Rockets are in a state of chaos.

They are probably used to Yao Ming as the center of offense. Now that Yao Ming is not around, the coach has changed the strategy of the inside attack, mainly focusing on the outside line centered on McGrady and Battier, which makes them very uncomfortable!
"The rocket is not very good..."

"Yes. Without Yao Ming in the second half, the Rockets seemed to have lost their backbone..."

"and!"

"The Suns also replaced Nash. The super powerful No. [-] is resting. Coach D'Antoni has other plans. Is he going to give the Rockets a fatal blow?"

Duke at this time.

Just sit on the bench.

In the second half, coach D'Antoni replaced Duke and replaced them with star Nash.

For the coach's arrangement, Du Qi can only abide by it.

But Du Qi also understands that now the coach is more determined to regard him as his "hole card".

"I hope the idol doesn't fall down..."

Du Qi's mind is no longer on this game.

He is praying for Yao Ming.

……

In the third quarter of the game, the Suns began to slaughter in the avalanche state of the Rockets.

when it's over,
78 to 69, surpassing the Rockets by 9 points, just one point away from double digits!
"It seems that there is no suspense in the next game..."

"Yes."

"It's a pity... Actually, I think the Rockets' current lineup, Dikembe Mutombo, Battier, Tracy McGrady, Brooks, Bunche Wells, is no problem against the Suns."

"It depends on how Coach Adelman handles this situation."

The Rockets here,
Bishop Rick Adelman deployed strategies to everyone:

"McGrady, when Mutombo is facing the opposing center, you step up and help."

"understand!"

"Battier, Wells, when the star of the Suns is about to break through with the ball, the two of you deal with him together."

"Leave it to us."

"The Suns still have a threat to us," coach Adelman frowned, "their Asian kid rookie, I can't see through, but his performance is very eye-catching, if we want to win this game , we must force him out as soon as possible!"

Adelman was sad,
Yao Ming, the leading star, is gone. For the Rockets, it is a great test!

He was even more sad,
Will Yao still be able to participate in the next regular season?Prepare for the worst... If Yao falls hard and the doctor's advice is to cancel the season, how will the Rockets play?
His emotions affect everyone on the team.

McGrady and Battier all looked serious.

Huh~~huh! !

And right now.

Cheers sounded like a tsunami in the arena!
"what happened?"

Coach Adelman was taken aback, a little confused.Why is there such a loud cheer all of a sudden when it's time for a break?
at this time.

The assistant coach ran over, pushed away McGrady and Battier, and said excitedly and out of breath:

"Coach, Yao's injury is more optimistic than we imagined. Moreover, Yao has returned to the game and will play the last quarter of the game."

"Really!?"

This news.

For the Rockets, it is undoubtedly a surprise!
Coach Adelman and the players turned their heads to look at the player channel.

Sure enough, I saw

A giant figure trotted over here!That oriental face that the whole world recognizes is whoever it is if it’s not Yao Ming.

"Great!"

"Our mainstay is back!"

McGrady was the first to go up to welcome Yao Ming's king back!
……

The Suns here.

It was also a look of surprise why the fans cheered, and soon saw the scene just now.

"It turns out that Giant Yao is back."

"Yao Ming's ability to come back means that he didn't fall too badly."

Du Qi finally let go of his worries about Yao Ming.

……

"Yao is back on the field."

"I fell so hard, but I still have to continue to play. Yao's professionalism is worth learning!"

"The pride of China!"

The fourth quarter started. Coach Adelman of the Rockets canceled the 2+2+1 strategy and replaced the veteran Mutombo.

"Although Yao has played, it can still be seen that his right foot is very painful!"

"That's inevitable. With a bandage on, Yao is fighting with injuries, and his spirit is commendable!"

"No matter what, Yao's playing has restored the morale of the Rockets!"

The fourth quarter begins.

Battier hit a three-pointer.

"Good job!"

Yao Ming, Tracy McGrady and Battier high-fived, "There are only 6 points left."

"Everyone cheer up and defend well, the final victory must belong to us!" Yao Ming encouraged morale.

McGrady grinned and said to Yao Ming: "Yao, I will pass the ball to you as much as possible, and use your power as an inside gate!"

……

morale is high,
tacit cooperation,
Status is also online,

The Rockets launched a counterattack!

On the Suns side, Nash did not give up much and scored frequently.But the Rockets' momentum was even stronger. In the middle of the fourth quarter, they were still one point behind because of McGrady's three-pointer, and overtook the Suns by two points!
"pause!"

Coach D'Antoni was forced to call a timeout.

"Du, you go on stage."

D'Antoni looked at Duke.

Du Qi was shocked.

Nash changed his face and said, "Coach, are you going to replace me at this time?"

"Oh Nash, don't get excited..."

D'Antoni even comforted him, "I'm not going to replace you. At this time, the team can't live without you."
