NBA: The man who passed the ball to Yao Ming

Seeing Zhang Jinshui's actions, there was a burst of discussion in the stands of the arco arena.

"Ha, who does this rookie think he is? He actually took the ball from Yao Ming and shot a three-pointer from such a long distance?"

"He's Zhang Jinshui, you haven't heard of this name, have you? He's the rookie who shot the logo in the summer league."

"That's also funny. This is the NBA, not the Summer League. The bottom line teammates have a better chance, but he still insists on throwing such a difficult ultra-long three-pointer. What do you mean he is not fooling around?"

"Well, I also think he is a little foolish."

On the bench, Van Gundy looked stern.

Originally, Van Gundy had already given Zhang Jinshui full marks for today's performance from the bottom of his heart.

But seeing this random three-pointer, the full score immediately became a fail. He would never allow his players to make such crazy shooting choices on the court.

"This is the NBA, not the Summer League, and so is Yao Ming, who actually spoils him." Van Gundy thought bitterly.

At this point, the timer above the backboard has stopped at 0 seconds.

The basketball, which gathered thousands of eyes, drew a high arc upwards, reached the apex, gradually fell, and finally fell to the position of the basket.

At this moment, everyone on the scene held their breath, and time seemed to stand still.

Just listening to the sound of "shua", the basketball went into the net hollow!

Zhang Jinshui jumped up high with his mouth pursed, raised three fingers in his right hand, and flicked them fiercely in the air.

This three-pointer helped the Rockets overtake the score 52-51.

This is also the first time the Rockets have led the score in today's game.

In the stands of the arco arena, there was no sound at once.

The audience held their heads in their hands and watched the playback on the big TV in disbelief.

McGrady rushed over with an amazed smile, pushed Zhang Jinshui hard, and shouted: "Hey, little brother, you are a bit ruthless!"

Zhang Jinshui clapped his hands vigorously with him.

Yao Ming also rushed forward with a happy face, and rubbed Zhang Jinshui's hair with two giant palms: "Jin Shui, this three-pointer is really boosting morale."

Zhang Jinshui hugged Yao Ming vigorously, and said sincerely, "Yao Ming, thank you for trusting me. Except for you, no one in the entire NBA would pass the ball to me in that situation."

"I also struggled for a while, and after thinking about it, I should give you a chance. It's best not to make it. I can scold you and never allow you to shoot three-pointers in such an unreliable position. Who would have known you? Come in." Yao Ming laughed.

At this time, Anderson, Uncle Huo and other players on the bench also rushed over.

With exaggerated expressions, everyone slapped and shoved Zhang Jinshui in various ways to express the excitement this ball brought to them.

Zhang Jinshui punched with every teammate, and at the same time, he did not forget to wave to Zi Chunlin who was happily applauding for him in the stands, and then walked to the player tunnel with his teammates.

At the end of halftime, the two teams will have a 15-minute break.

An unhappy Van Gundy and assistant coach Hughes walked back to the away player's lounge first, and said indignantly along the way:

"It's unreasonable. Such an unreasonable three-pointer can be scored."

"Otherwise, don't you want this goal to not be scored?" Old Hughes said with a smile.

"Next time he'd better not come in, you see how I scold him then, even this time!

I may have been too kind to him during this time, and it seems that I need to let him get to know him again.

This is the nba, not some crap summer league. "

"Yes, coach, you are right."

Old Hughes carefully appeased Van Gundy's emotions, and continued to persuade:

"But from another perspective, Zhang Jinshui's three-pointer really boosted morale and helped us overtake the score."

"That's right, it's a five-best goal. Put this kid on the field in the second half, and I don't believe the Kings guards dare to double-team Yao Ming!"

Speaking of this level, Van Gundy's face finally eased, and he showed some relief:

"The reason why I took a fancy to Zhang Jinshui at the beginning was his three-pointer is a very important reason."

A group of players surrounded Zhang Jinshui and returned to the locker room, still talking about Zhang Jinshui's three-pointer with great interest.

"Everyone be quiet." Van Gundy clapped his hands.

After all the Rockets players looked over, he first said to Zhang Jinshui: "Zhang Jinshui, you made an unbelievable three-pointer, which helped us overtake the score, which is very good.

But I want you to remember that relying on unreasonable offensive methods may occasionally have miraculous effects, but it will definitely not win a championship.

This is the NBA. The outcome of a game may depend on whether you handle a certain or two offensive rounds reasonably. Please think about this clearly before each shot in the future. "

"Coach, I understand, I will pay attention to it in the future." Zhang Jinshui agreed sincerely.

He knew early on that Van Gundy hated irrational shot selection.

What's more, he is still a rookie, and Van Gundy certainly doesn't have the same tolerance for Yao Ming and McGrady.

It's really because the hit rate of [Fulin Xinzhi] is [-]%.

If he changed to the golden badge [Retreating Sharpshooting], he would definitely not shoot. After all, he only had a 50.00% hit rate. If he didn't make it, he didn't want to meet Van Gundy's dissatisfaction.

In fact, this is also the reason why he does not plan to use the [Retreating Magic Shot] on the field for the time being. Let's wait for Van Gundy to have more tolerance for him.

Seeing that Zhang Jinshui's attitude is still modest, Van Gundy nodded, turned to all the players and said: "We played pretty well in the first half, but a 1-point advantage is equivalent to nothing.

I hope everyone can grit their teeth and overcome all difficulties in the second half. From the home court of the Kings, they can win the first win of the new season back to Houston, so that the entire league can feel our toughness.

Come on, everybody! "

"come on!"

After a 15-minute break, the two teams returned to the field, and the starting lineup from the first half was still on the field.

After the opening, the Rockets still handed the ball to Yao Ming inside.

Yao Ming moved quickly. Before Mike Bibby came up to double-team, he turned around and scored two points with a hook without dribbling, helping the Rockets lead by 54 points 51-3.

Perhaps because of gradually adapting to the home atmosphere of the Kings, the state of the Rockets in the second half was obviously much better than that in the first half.

Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady took turns to score. Even Alston, who was blown up by Mike Bibby in the first half, scored 2 points in a layup in a counterattack.

Although the King's Five Tigers continued to score points under the leadership of Mike Bibby, they were still unable to regain their lead.

两队从54比51，一路打到61比57，再打到70比65。

Because the rhythm of offense and defense is too tight, the coaches of both sides have never changed.

Until the 9th minute of the third quarter, the Rockets led the Kings by 73 points 67 to 6 after McGrady hit a three-pointer.

Kings coach Rick Adelman had to call a tentative, and replaced Mike Bibby Anderson Miller and other main players who were obviously overdrawn.

Van Gundy also immediately replaced Yao Mai and other key players, and said to Zhang Jinshui: "Zhang Jinshui, it's your turn. As long as you can keep the lead before the fourth quarter, we will win!"
