Yao Ming's jump ball against Pau Gasol, Yao Ming, who is tall and has long arms, wins.

The Rockets thus got the ball for the opening offense, Steve Francis held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, and soon, Yao Ming gave a single block in the frontcourt.

After blocking and dismantling it directly, Steve Francis rushed in with the ball, and encountered a pinch near the free throw line, and then he was forced to split the ball to Yao Ming, who cut into the inside on the other side.

Yao Ming received the ball, and the mid-distance position was also surrounded by the opponent, and it was obvious that in this game, the old coach Hubi Brown erected a wall in the middle distance!

Yao Ming also has defense in front of him, and Yao Ming, who has joined the responsibility of planning, naturally regards passing as the first priority, and in the face of defense, he directly found Carlos Boozer who slipped to the bottom line.

Boozer received the ball, rushed to the basket, forced a layup against the general defense, and missed!

Pau Gasol grabbed the rebound, and after the ball, Joe Hai stood up, as if he was about to make some move.

But then, the Grizzlies' offense, Pau Gasol, who grabbed the rebound, directly launched a counterattack, he passed the ball to Maddy, and Maddie was one step ahead and rushed to the frontcourt.

But the Rockets' retreat is also very fast, and the frontcourt is basically a three-on-three, Maddie forced a breakthrough, wanting to take advantage of the Rockets' defense when the defense is not in place, and score a goal first.

But Ron Artest's single defense had no dead ends, and Maddie burst into the three-second zone and was quickly stopped by Artai.

Maddie then turned over and made a jumper, and Atay also jumped backwards and interfered solidly.

With a bang, Maddie's shot didn't go in, and Steve Francis took the backcourt basketball and slammed it forward, looking like he was going to fight back with a counterattack.

But at this time, there was a beep, and the referee blew the whistle.

Steve Francis took two more steps for no apparent reason, and the referee had to blow the whistle again sharply and point to the Grizzlies' bench.

Steve Francis then realized that Qiao Hai actually called a timeout!

It was only 35 seconds before Qiao Hai called a timeout! What does he want to do? McBrin in the commentary seat was also stunned.

Objectively speaking, Qiao Hai is a coach who is very willing to call a timeout, his timeout is always timely, and the effect after the timeout is very good, and he can always reverse the decline.

But the opening 35-second timeout is too early!

Even Steve Francis was a little unconvinced, and he spread his hands and expressed confusion, because if Qiao Hai hadn't called this timeout, he might have rushed to the front court with the ball to score.

But Qiao Hai didn't explain, but picked up a tactical board and directly started to adjust.

"Guys, focus on it, I'm calling a short timeout, so we're limited in time, we've seen the Grizzlies' first wave of defense, and sure enough, as I thought, they blocked our mid-range offense, which is the same way the Spurs, Timberwolves, and Lakers played before."

"But it just happened to restrain our attack, so we had to make a change, the mid-range is our main point of attack, we want to make the mid-range our ball stop, what does that mean? Meaning, we're going to keep an eye on the mid-range slam, but the attack here is just a feint, attracting the opponent's defense first, and then distributing the ball to the weak side! Identify opportunities"

"Understand, to the weak side!"

While speaking, Qiao Hai also wrote and drew on the tactical board.

But the referee soon came over and urged Qiao Hai: "Joe, hurry up, the timeout is over!" ”

"Okay, okay." Qiao Hai nodded and pushed Yao Ming and Steve Francis: "Got it?" If you understand, go on the field, remember, mid-range feints, divide the ball to the weak side, play more and pass more! ”

After a final shout, the short timeout ended, all the players returned to the field, and the game resumed.

"Qiao Hai made a very quick adjustment with a short timeout, maybe this timeout made many people puzzled, because the game has just begun, and it is really unknown whether the timeout adjustment in this time period will work......" Mav Albert shook his head.

"Look at the Rockets' offense after the timeout, we'll get to that pretty quickly," Cherry Miller said. ”

……

The game restarted, Qiao Hai stood on the sidelines with a serious face, Steve Francis received the ball, and it was still Yao Ming who gave a block in the high position.

McBrin on the commentary bench was puzzled: "It's still Yao's high position blocking, it doesn't seem to have changed?" ”

Francis rushed in, and soon, Sean Marion blocked Francis head-on, and Chancey Billups also surrounded him from behind.

Double bag, Francis can only share the ball to the other side of the tower Yao Ming.

"Divide Yao Ming again, as of now, there is no difference between the rocket's playing style and the first attack!"

Before Cherry Miller's voice fell, Yao Ming quickly transferred a wide range and gave it directly to James Posey in the bottom corner.

James Posey had a huge gap in front of him, but instead of throwing it directly, he took two steps.

The Grizzlies' defense made up for it, Maddie and Pau Gasol rushed over at the same time, and the Grizzlies' midfield defense was empty all of a sudden.

James Posey was pinched, Yao Ming cut in the middle, directly received Posey's pass to the ground, and Yao Ming scored two points under the basket.

On the sidelines, Qiao Hai clapped his hands and said to Stamle Love with a smile: "Sure enough, I guessed correctly, this guy Hubi focused on our mid-range attack, and after one of our pauses, they blocked the bottom corner of the strong side, fortunately, we didn't play the hammer tactics again, otherwise the adjustment would be tantamount to white tones." ”

Stan Lefour nodded.

On the commentary bench, McBrin was silent for a while, and then began to analyze the Rockets' offense: "Obviously, Qiao Hai should have seen it through the first attack in the opening game, and the Grizzlies' defense focused on their high-post blocking and mid-range offense. ”

"So, Qiao Hai directly called a timeout."

"After the timeout, the Grizzlies also made some adjustments, and they locked the bottom corner of the strong side again, but the Rockets' offense was still a high-level block and a strong mid-range, but after encountering a pinch, they moved the ball to the weak side in a wide range!"

"The weak side suddenly got the ball, and the Grizzlies' defense naturally collapsed......"

……

Qiao Hai made a wave of adjustments, which was regarded as a surprise to Hu Bi Brown, but after this goal, Hu Bi Brown did not have Qiao Hai's courage, and called a timeout at the beginning.

As a result, the Rockets opened up the offense directly by constantly moving the ball over a wide range and giving the ball to the weak side.

The Rockets' offense turned on, and the defensive end also made effective limits on the Grizzlies.

With about 5 minutes left in the first quarter, the Rockets led the Grizzlies by 3 points with a score of 16-13.

It was only then that Hubbie Brown called a timeout to make adjustments.

For Qiao Hai, the on-the-spot command at the beginning, he should have crushed Hubie Brown, and next, he has to maintain this crushing to ensure that the Rockets can maintain their current lead......

So, he decided to use the Eagle Eye skill in advance.
