Chapter 235: The excitement of the derby
Murphy rubbed his chest secretly, his aching eyebrows tangled together. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's too tall and heavy, and it's also very powerful." Murphy felt in his heart that Yao Ming was a player of the same level as O'Neal, and once he got close to the basket, ordinary people had no way to defend.
The rocket quickly retreated.
Richardson made a gesture and motioned for Yang Di to come out and block him.
The Warriors' style of play is very simple, that is, ordinary inside and outside blocking and dismantling cooperation, at a 45-degree position, Richardson dribbled to the middle, while Yang Di was angry and dantian, steady and steady, blocking Jim Jackson who followed the defense.
In front of Yao Ming, Richardson easily completed the change of direction in front of his body and inserted it diagonally to the right, while Yang Di turned around and staggered with him, instantly forming a local two-on-one situation.
It's like a football one-two, Yao Ming, who was raised, vacated the position behind him, and Richardson passed to Yang Di in seconds.
Yang Di stepped on the floor, bent his knees, and passed a strong force on his Achilles tendon, and suddenly leaped up, holding the basketball with both hands and putting it behind his head.
Juwan-Howard held his head up, as if he saw a bomber passing overhead.
"Bang!"
Yang Di dunked the ball into the basket with both hands, grasped the basket firmly, and swung his body on the basket for half a circle with inertia, and then turned around and landed.
Judging from the broadcast footage, Yang Di seems to have killed from a bunch of people, like a dunk.
The start of the game was two such spectacular dunks that the entire Toyota Center fans didn't know whether to cheer or boo in support of the home team.
The Chinese fans present had the most firm position, they applauded and cheered when Yao Ming scored, and they also applauded and cheered when Yang Di scored, they didn't care who won or lost, in short, they supported the excellent performance of these two.
"Yao Ming's defense and dismantling is not good, just like O'Neal, if the depth is enough, the strong inner line is a nightmare." Montgomery thought about the strategy to deal with Yao Ming, although there was no way on the defensive end, but there were many ways on the offensive end, "If Yang Di can shoot a little more consistently, it will be more difficult for Yao Ming to defend him." ”
Maddie dribbles slowly, looking for opportunities on the outside.
Yao Ming came out to block the demolition, and the two still tried to play together as much as possible, after all, from the perspective of team building, whether the two can call will be the key to future success.
Maddie dribbled deftly past Yao Ming, and Petrus stared at him and forced his way past as well.
But because it was at the same time, he inevitably suffered a little bit in his position, and Maddie immediately accelerated, dribbled with his left hand, and accelerated through the Warriors' defense like a gust of wind.
Yang Di stuck with Yao Ming and didn't let Yao Ming easily enter the inner line.
Maddie directly faced Murphy, three steps up, Murphy jumped straight up to interfere, Maddie pulled the ball down with his left hand, switched back to the small pull rod of his right hand, twisted his waist and abdomen, glided to avoid Murphy's defensive area, and made a layup with a low hand.
After playing the basketball board, it is framed, elegantly like a poet on the court.
"Awesome." Yang Di was amazed in his heart, no matter what, he couldn't learn Maddie's style of play, and he felt that he always had some unimaginable angles and abilities to score in a particularly chic way.
Both teams scored efficiently in the opening period.
Richardson missed a step-back jumper, and finally there was his first iron of the game.
The Rockets also missed, and Murphy played the ball to Petrus.
Yang Di ran up with his legs, as if he was not participating in a basketball game, but in a track and field meeting.
"Watch out for air cuts!"
A TV commentator on a local Houston television station exclaimed that Yang Di's air cut was so powerful that once he cut in, the defenders were left with only two paths left to score or foul. And neither of these two is the picture that the rocket expects to see.
With an attitude of seeing death as home, Zhu Wan-Howard stood on the road ahead of Yang Di, using his hands and feet together, secretly pulling and dragging, delaying Yang Di's running speed.
But the rest of the Warriors players still ran and flew.
Petrus distributed the ball to Richardson, who advanced on the sideline, and Richardson lowered his body, sent the ball forward, and strode to follow.
"Hey, old man, that's not a good idea." Yang Di frowned and angrily spewed at Juwan-Howard, a little irritated as he shook off his harassing big hand.
Juwan-Howard shrugged his shoulders indifferently, Yao Ming caught up, and the two switched guards.
Wide Richardson faced Jim Jackson one-on-one.
After dribbling under the crotch, the right side swayed to the left, Richardson's dribbling feints were not particularly obvious, but the forward and backward steps were very large, and he still easily occupied the advantageous position of the attacker.
It stands to reason that Richardson, as the team's leading scorer, has unlimited firing rights for the team.
But Richardson himself is not the type of player who needs to control the ball, and after feeling that Jim Jackson is quite aggressive, Richardson broke through to Murphy on the baseline.
Facing Juwan Howard, who was back on the defensive back, Murphy made a mid-range jumper.
"Bell!" The ball didn't go in.
Yang Di was taken by Yao Mingka, and Maddie rushed in to snatch the rebound.
At this moment, Yang Di immediately gave up the counter-robbery, quickly moved in small steps, and beckoned the other players of the Warriors to retreat.
After Maddie advanced to the frontcourt, he stabilized the offensive rhythm when he saw that there was no chance, and waited for the rest of the Rockets players to pass half time before continuing to attack the position.
Yao Ming received the ball in a low position with his back, two steps away from outside the penalty area.
Yang Di lowered his waist and bent his arms, the top strength of his body exploded, his legs were nailed to the ground, and his body was like a pillar.
Yao Ming's weight of more than 130 kilograms leaned on his back, and he hit Yang Di's body with a "bang" like a mountain.
The loud noise made Juwan Howard and Troy Murphy secretly sweat at the same time, these two Chinese players are simply monsters among interior players, and the monsters have to be solved by themselves.
Yao Ming was a little surprised by Yang Di's confrontational power, even after he gained weight, he still couldn't seem to advance the inside line.
He put his right foot on the ground, his whole body turned over, grabbed the basketball in his right hand, and then raised it high and made a direct hook shot so far from the basket.
Yang Di didn't jump, his whole body was condensed on the confrontation, and he couldn't interfere at the first time.
"It's so far away, there's no way to hook it in."
Yang Di didn't think that he didn't defend well, at least the big hand never left Yao Ming's waist, and there were still some other ways to fight when he was shooting.
"Huh!" As a result, Yao Ming hit again, and the opening was all three shots.
Houston fans raised their hands, Yao Ming has always been a player with a high shooting percentage, but it is rare to score so aggressively in the opening game.
The Houston Chronicle praised Yao for his superstar performance, showing a greater desire to score in front of his compatriots and leading the Rockets to the initiative from the start.
