Chapter 299
"McGrady seemed a little excited today. With a staggered step, he passed Williams who was defending him, and took a few strides to the inside. The Rockets inside center Cato hurried over to make up for it. Yao was slammed by Kenny Thomas. Can't squeeze half a step under the basket."

"Cato stood under the basket with his hands up high. He knew he couldn't stop Tracy McGrady from breaking through no matter what. The big man's routine is to raise his hands first and wait for you to block you when he gets a chance."

"McGrady attracted Cato to follow him to the left corner. Yao Ming was still in physical contact with Thomas on the right. Suddenly a Warriors player rushed into the paint."

"Billups made an open pick-and-roll to help Grant Hill stop the old cat Mobley, and Francis had no time to switch defenses. Hill, who was unguarded, took the opportunity to follow Tracy McGrady into the inside of the Rockets."

"McGrady passed the ball behind his head, Cato was taken away by him, Thomas and Dayao were entangled, and Hill, who was unguarded, jumped high, intercepted the ball with both hands, gliding in the air and flew to the basket, Hard dunk, Hill with both hands hanging on the rim."

"Well, Hill came down quickly, and the referee turned a blind eye to it. The Warriors scored the first point with a beautiful dunk. Many local Chinese fans came to the Rockets' home court to cheer and applaud the Warriors."

"I have to say that when Dayao and Hu Dong came to the Golden State Warriors, any away game they played actually became the home of the Warriors. There are Chinese Chinese descendants in any city in the United States. Every Warriors away game, there will be thousands. Wanhua fans flocked to the local stadium to watch the game."

"So the smart nba club owners have raised the price of tickets for the Warriors' away games. Anyway, no matter how expensive they are, they will be paid by Chinese fans who are not short of money. Some teams even plan to restrict Chinese fans from buying tickets. vote, only to give up after protests from local fan organizations."

"It can't be blamed that some NBA team owners have money and don't want to make money. The key is that the fans are all cheering for the visiting team. This is too harmful to the morale of the home team."

"The league officials will definitely not care about this matter. They hope that the more expensive the tickets, the better, and the more people who come to watch the game, the better. As for the people there, it doesn't matter."

"The Rockets' offense must still focus on the perimeter. Apart from Thomas, they can still score inside. Williams and Cato are standard blue collars. The defense can still be useful. It is a bit difficult to force them to score."

"But the old cat and Francis are not easy to score. Billups and Grant Hill are taller and stronger than them, and their foot speed and flexibility are not inferior to them. It is really difficult to score."

"Boss Francis holds the ball. When he finds that there is no one to pass and the situation cannot be opened, Francis will often choose to do it alone. Instead of handing it over to unreliable teammates, it is better to break through for layups by himself. OK."

"Billups defended Francis all the way to the bottom of the blue. Although he was stronger than Boss Fernando, but Boss Fernando charged with amazing speed. It is really not something ordinary people can defend against."

"Under the interference of Billups, Francis barely made a throw and missed, but the referee called Billups for a defensive foul, and Boss Fu made two free throws and made one of two free throws."

"The score was 2:1, the Warriors scored a goal, and the Rockets scored a free throw at home. In the first quarter, the two sides played fiercely."

"The Rockets are obviously well-prepared. They don't double-team the Rockets inside. Yao obviously can't beat Cato in a one-on-one match. Although Pau Gasol is tall enough, he still can't stand up to the big man with his back. Tonnage Kenny Thomas, he's a lot lighter than Thomas."

"Francis's jumping ability is amazing. He has no pressure to defend Billups. The old cat has a big problem defending Hill. Hill is a full ten centimeters taller than him. It is equal to a forward who is misplaced to play a guard. No one helps the old cat. No, Hill directly pulls out, and the old cat can only watch from the side."

"So the Rockets' tactics on the defensive end are very complicated. They have to double-team McGrady and strangle McGrady, the core player of the Warriors' engine, and they have to draw out manpower to mark Grant Hill. At least they can't let the old cat lead the defense alone. Get the ball, and the nearest Rockets player will come and double-team."

"Tang Shuai's famous saying is, never underestimate the heart of a champion. The Rockets coached by him, even if the personnel are not perfect, but the Rockets are very confident, and their home record will never be bad."

"In the first quarter, the two sides scored 28:26. The Warriors led away by 2 points. Although the old cat Mobley was a little troubled on the defensive end, he was very lucky on the offensive end today. Bite the score, otherwise the Rockets will not be only 2 points behind."

"When all the teams focus on Francis, the quasi-All-Star player, in fact, the most underrated scorer in the Rockets is the old cat. Regardless of the percentage of two-pointers, three-pointers or free throws, Mobley is better than Francis. More accurate."

"But Mobley has always been low-key. He is always hidden behind Boss Francois, willing to be a player who does not show his face. The spotlight is always on Francis. No one pays attention to this little man who plays with his left hand with such speed as the wind."

"This season Mobley averaged 21.7 points per game, which is higher than Francis, but not many people always care."

"Tall players naturally have an advantage in attacking short players, but tall players have their own troubles defending short players. Hill's speed is not slow, but a tall player over 2 meters wants to keep up with a 1 Mi 9 is a small guy who is as fast as the wind, so it is very reluctant, and this little guy is very steady in retreat, holds the ball in his left hand, is very accurate in three-pointers, and has a strong desire to attack the basket."

"In the second quarter, Lenny went to the steal king Larry Hughes and let him defend Mobley. Hughes is a little taller than the old cat, which is just right. Players over 2 meters are not effective, and the center of gravity is too high. It's easy to eat and shake, and the speed and pace can't keep up."

"In the second and third quarters, the Warriors have many rotation players on the field, such as Hu Dong, Arenas, Battier, O'Neal, Uncle Mu, etc. In order to prepare for tomorrow's back-to-back against the Mavericks, Lenny will never let any Warriors player Play more than 20 minutes."

"The Rockets' rotation frequency is very low. They say it is a 9-man rotation, but in fact Eddie Griffin and Mookie Norris can play as substitutes, and the other substitutes can't play for a few minutes."

"The Rockets are good scorers from outside, so they stared at the outside to play. In the third quarter, the Rockets even used three outside players at the same time. Norris and Mobley were on the court at the same time, but Norris, who is 1 meters tall, was defeated by the Warriors. Totally restricted."
