Godfather of basketball: coach Dayao to win the championship

After walking into the Madison Garden Arena, at this time, the Knicks fans on the scene have already started to shout crazily.

As the Knicks want to tie the record of the first consecutive wins in history, the most powerful opponents among the remaining teams.

The Houston Rockets deserve the respect these Knicks fans have shown them.

The more difficult the opponent is, the more fans will cheer for the team they support.

Han Ning chatted with the Rockets players for a while.

Then the Rockets players continued to warm up before the game.

Han Ning knows these Rockets players very well.

They will not have any behavior of releasing water just because they have a good relationship with themselves.

On the contrary, my own existence will make the Houston Rockets players work harder to try to win.

This is their greatest respect for themselves.

..................

"beep!"

Soon, the whistle sounded for the start of the game.

Dayao failed to get the ball in a jump ball fight with Kevin Cato.

The Houston Rockets got the chance to go first.

Francis dribbles to the frontcourt.

Facing Allen Iverson's defense, Francis reached out and made a few gestures, directing the Rockets teammates to move.

Without any hesitation, Francis started to speed up and rushed to the left.

Allen Iverson rushed forward to defend.

But soon, Allen Iverson felt his right side hit a person.

Turning his head, he saw that it was Dazhi who was helping Francis with a pick-and-roll.

Allen Iverson immediately wanted to bypass Big Zhi and continue to chase Francis.

With the help of Big Zhi's pick-and-roll successfully, Francis, who got rid of Allen Iverson, didn't rush into the inside to try to cause damage.

He actually knows very well how dominant the Knicks' inside combination is.

Going inside and trying to kill is not the best option.

So, when Allen Iverson bypassed Big Zhi and caught up with Francis and continued to defend.

Francis passed the ball without looking back, and threw the basketball into the hands of Da Zhi, who was standing behind the three-point line.

After receiving a pass from Francis, Big Zhi faced the basket.

While Kurt Thomas, who was supposed to be defending him, was still a little away from him, he took off and shot directly.

"Shh!"

Three points.

The Houston Rockets lead by 3 points!

Although it was just a three-pointer, Han Ning frowned.

From this attack, Han Ning found many problems.

Of course, it's not that the Rockets or the Knicks have any offensive or defensive problems.

But for this game, the strengths and weaknesses of the two teams.

The tacit understanding between the Rockets players is getting deeper and deeper now.

It can be seen from Francis' pass just now.

After three years of cooperation, the tacit understanding between the first few players of the Rockets is really too high.

Moreover, Big Zhi has made great progress!

Now, Big Zhi's shooting speed is getting faster and faster, and his grasp of the timing of his shots is getting more and more sophisticated.

In the past, Dazhi was selected to the All-Star team, and many people may still have disputes.

But if Da Zhi is selected for the All-Star team this year, then Han Ning feels that he can definitely be called worthy of the name.

As soon as I thought about it, I changed the fate of Dayao and Da Zhi, so that they can now achieve such outstanding results in this league.

There was an unspeakable joy in Han Ning's heart.

However, the stronger Big Zhi is now, the greater the threat to the Knicks.

The Knicks attack.

After Allen Iverson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he reached out and called Dayao for a pick-and-roll.

Then he looked at Francis in front of him provocatively.

Do you have teammates who can cooperate? !

I have that too!

Dayao quickly came to the high position for the pick-and-roll.

Subsequently, Allen Iverson used Dayao's pick-and-roll to throw off Francis' defense.

Francis didn't dare switch defenses with Kevin Cato.

With Dayao's height, facing his defense, the difference between wanting to shoot and no one defending is basically the same.

I can only bite the bullet and continue to chase Allen Iverson.

However, Allen Iverson seems to be interested in fighting Francis.

It seems that you want to tell him that what you can do, he can do the same.

Throw the basketball in your hand back.

Dayao reaches for a pass from Allen Iverson.

Then, before Kevin Cato had time to defend himself, he shot directly.

"Shh!"

Two points scored!

Originally, this could have been a three-pointer.

However, Dayao stepped on the toe of his right foot a little bit on the three-point line.

Therefore, it is still only a two-pointer.

The Knicks narrowed the point difference to 1 point.

Immediately afterwards, the Rockets continued to attack.

As before, before the Knicks' new defensive tactical system has been thoroughly mastered by the Knicks' starting lineup, the Knicks are indeed somewhat difficult to compete with the Rockets' offensive firepower.

However, fortunately, nearly half of the season has passed.

The Knicks' starting lineup has learned to use the new defensive system.

It's just that there are still some gaps in tacit understanding and proficiency.

However, it is still very effective to deal with the Rockets.

When the first quarter ended, the score between the two teams had reached 27 to 24.

The Houston Rockets led by 3 points.

The gap is small.

Whether it is the fans of the Knicks or the fans of the Rockets, when they see such a score, they are full of confidence in the team they support.

I think the team I support will definitely win the game.

Only Han Ning's expression became more and more serious.

He knew very well in his heart that the Knicks wanted to beat the Rockets at this time, it was not without a chance!

On the contrary, the chance is not small!

However, this is when the physical strength and mental state of the Knicks players are normal.

Now, the team has gone through so many winning streaks.

The body is very tired.

Mentally, even more exhausted.

When the game just started, it was okay to say.

If it's the third or fourth quarter of the game, the physical strength of the Knicks players will bottom out.

The Rockets will be able to launch an offensive in one fell swoop and find a way to directly win the Knicks.

After all, although the Rockets this season are very strong, they don't have as many winning streaks as the Knicks.

The loss of those games and the policy of rotating and resting in the middle have allowed many Rockets players to preserve their physical and mental states very well.
