Chapter 584: Revised Rocket (1)

Yang Di hit Xing's head, faced Duncan's long-arm defense, and made a direct jump shot, and he could still throw it.

The expressionless Shi Buddha was shocked, Yang Di is too strong, this guy has been stepping one step a year, from the initial rebounding beast, to the defensive titan later, and now known as the offensive core of the Warriors, the average points per game have been rising.

It's the rhythm of the battle for the scoring title!

The Spurs trailed by seven points, the crucial moment was suppressed, and Duncan was also a little powerless.

Near the end of the game, Yang Di, who had the winning ticket in hand, had a smile on his face.

Playing three games against the Spurs in a season, he now has won one game home and one away, and in the absence of Byron Davis, he is very satisfied.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Spurs 97-93 away and continued to lead the Western Conference leaderboard.

After the game, Sun Yue, who plays in the Development League, rushed to the scene and met with Yang Di.

After some time of not seeing him, Sun Yue has darkened a lot and is much stronger. Yang Di hammered him on the chest and encouraged him to continue to work hard and practice defense and three-point shooting.

After the post-game interview, Yang Di immediately left San Antonio with the team and rushed to Houston overnight.

The Houston Rockets are the second stop on the Warriors' road trip.

Previously, Yao Ming was nominated for the Western Player of the Month, and if it weren't for Yang Di's performance, it is very likely that he would have won the Western Conference Player of the Month.

The Chinese men's basketball team won the World Championships, basketball has become the most popular sport in China, and Yang Di and Yao Ming, the two leaders of the Chinese men's basketball team, are destined to go down in history.

The relationship between the two has also become more familiar, and they have become good friends who recognize each other and help each other.

But Yang Di came to Houston, and the time was very tight, so Yao Ming didn't invite Yang Di to get together before the game, he called Yang Di and made an appointment to have dinner together after the game.

The next day, the Toyota Center Arena in Houston.

Yang Di drooped his head, a little out of energy.

After all, it was the second game in 24 hours, and the last game was particularly difficult in the AT center, Yang Di felt a little tired and yawned several times in a row.

The players warmed up on the court, and the Houston arena slowly walked into a large number of Rockets fans.

"There's drama this season, it's great." Yang Di praised and shook hands with Yao Ming and hugged him.

Yao Ming smiled, but was still very modest, "Since the start of the game, we have been in a very good state, but we still haven't reached your height. ”

Yang Di laughed, "No matter what is advanced, it is almost the same." ”

He looked Yao Ming up and down, and Yao Ming seemed to have lost some weight.

As if feeling Yang Di's gaze, Yao Ming touched his head: "I lost 15 pounds in the offseason, and now it really seems to be back to when I first entered the league, my body is very relaxed, and many actions that have not been used for a long time have also been done." ”

"The point is, at the same time, you still retain your strength, and your body has not been practiced in vain in the past few years." Yang Di nodded, although Yao Ming's strength is not as explosive as Yang Di, it is still the first-class in the NBA's interior, his strength lies in continuity, which can help him resist all the league's interior offense, defense, strength plus flexibility, is the best physique.

The two stood on the side and chatted for a while.

A few minutes later, the referee came out, the lights went dark, and it was time for the opening ceremony.

When Yang Di appeared, he was greeted with applause by the people of Houston, which is another city in the United States with a relatively high support rating in addition to San Francisco.

Yang Di waved his hand and responded enthusiastically.

At 7 o'clock, the game officially began.

Starting lineup for the Rockets: Ralph Alston, Tracy McGrady, Sean Battier, Chuck Hayes, Yao Ming.

Warriors' starting lineup: Derrick Fisher, Ray Allen, Danny Granger, Jandy, Tyson Chandler.

Yao Ming jumped to win against Chandler, and it is also relatively rare for Chandler to jump without winning two consecutive games.

This game was broadcast by TNT, and the commentators on the broadcast were the well-known Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley.

Barkley said that Yao Ming was not good, but Yao Ming became a superstar, saying that Yang Di may never learn to attack, and as a result, Yang Di may average 30 points per game this season.

But he didn't care, he was also a funny and easy person to get along with in private, and became friends with Yao Ming and Yang Di.

"The Rockets have improved a lot this season."

Barkley said with a smile: "The Rockets didn't make the playoffs last season, and this season is shameful, look at it, Tracy and Yao Ming are all so good, Sean Battier fits their lineup perfectly, yes, and this, huh...... Chuck Hayes, yes, I love his free-throw position, hahaha. ”

Barkley likes to tease people, while Kenny Smith is a little more serious.

On the court, the Rockets began the first wave of offense.

The change of the Rockets stems from the arrival of small forward Sean Battier, the Rockets directly have a strong outside defense, and at the same time, Jeff Van Gundy finally realized that what Yao Ming is good at is not to go deep into the restricted area to grab rebounds, Yao Ming is a super attacker by birth, and letting Yao Ming partner Zhu Wan Howard is simply a waste of offensive talent.

So Jeff Van Gundy promoted 2nd grader Chuck Hayes.

This stocky center has amazing strength and a stable Tarzan-like turf, and his positioning and rebounding ability are top-notch, which is just right for Yao Ming to protect rebounds.

So since the new season, Yao Ming's number of rebounds has been hovering around 10, and even occasionally less than 10, sometimes Hayes is crazy, Yao Ming only has five or six rebounds a game, and when Yang Di grabs five or six rebounds, it must be that he has played less than 20 minutes.

Alston possession of the ball in front.

Maddie raised her arms and pushed Danny Granger two steps inside before swerving around and turning her back to the ball.

Yao Ming originally wanted to come over to block the demolition, but when he saw the command, he silently left the penalty area and went to the area on the other side to ambush, Maddie took the ball and looked at the line, and made a feint to pass the ball.

With his left foot back, he turns and slams under the basket.

Granger was taken aback, Maddie seemed to be in better shape than last year, and the speed of this turn and dribble was lightning fast, and there was no time to defend.

By the time the body kept up with the speed of the nerves, Maddie had already completed his technical moves.

Yang Di was the first to move over to help defend, staring at Maddie.

Maddie jumps, drifts through the air, and grabs a basketball with one hand.

With a light throw, he just dodged all of Yang Di's defensive range space.

Yao Ming jumped under the basket, and after receiving the pass, he hung the frame and dunked violently.

The weight of 125 kilograms was hung from the basket, and the basket was violently deformed, making an overwhelming sound, which made people worry about whether it would fall off. 12910
