In the West, the Rockets, who returned to their home court, defeated the Lakers 102-91 to pull one back, and at the same time, it also proved that Houston is not a chopping block fish to be slaughtered. The Spurs beat the Grizzlies to take a 3-0 lead, and the Kings played the third game with the Mavericks today, and the first two home games were won by the Kings. And the Timberwolves, who beat the Nuggets twice, will also usher in the third game today, and the Timberwolves' away game is also a life-and-death battle for the Nuggets.

So on this day, there were four sets of games, and the Hornets and Heat were also among them.

New Orleans City Central Business District, New Orleans Arena.

There were cheers in the arena, and there were many local fans who came to support the Hornets. The city of New Orleans,

"Toot ~"

The referee's whistle sounded again, "Heat No. 8 hitter fouled!" ”

"Even-bought Ka ......" Yang Di hugged his head and spread his hands, this was really no foul, he swore that he definitely covered the basketball first. Just two minutes into the second quarter, he picked up his third foul of the game.

"It's okay, just go down and have a good rest and get ready for the second half." Odom hooked Yang Di's neck, then rubbed his hair, signaling not to worry.

Amid the applause and cheers of the New Orleans fans, Yang Di walked off the court with a depressed face.

"That's how the playoffs are, the home advantage will be more obvious, the first two games were not visible in Miami, and this time I came to New Orleans, and I immediately felt a different scale."

Van Gundy frowned, Yang Di fell into a foul crisis, and in fact, Wade and Caron Butler were also in foul crisis, the Heat had some difficulties on the defensive end, and the Hornets tried to set off a wave of small highs in the cheering of the home fans.

This game is very difficult to play, the right time and place are not on the Heat's side.

Yang Di sat on the bench, drank a glass of water, and then hatefully popped the paper cup and threw it on the ground.

On the court, a trace of worry flashed in Eddie Jones's eyes, the defensive pressure of the Hornets is too strong, their rotation defense is very good today, Wade and a lot of the small wing cooperation he originally did did not play, Yang Di fell into foul trouble again, like this, I am afraid that the point difference will get bigger and bigger.

"Attack!"

Wade, who was in possession of the ball, made a gesture and yelled loudly that the defensive end could not suppress the Hornets, so make up for it with offense!

"Toot ~"

At the end of the first half, the Heat trailed the Hornets by eight points, 45-53.

Some people say that a team with Byron Davis is a crazy team, and once Byron Davis is in offensive mode, the efficiency of the whole person becomes very terrifying. In the first half, Byron Davis scored 19 points on 7-of-12 shooting, and several hard scores that rushed inside sent the entire New Orleans arena into a frenzy.

"You have to strengthen the projection on the outside."

In the dressing room, Stan Van Gundy was loud to cheer up the players.

'The Hornets were under too much pressure in the box and we had some difficulties, but we had to be calm. The Hornets are at home, they must have a certain advantage, but on the scale of the blow, it is impossible to be too biased, the referee will watch some videos in the middle of the game, and in the second half, we must fight with the freshest mind, maintain concentration, and maintain stability! ”

Van Gundy's words drilled into Yang Di's ears, and after Yang Di listened to it in his left ear, his right ear went out again, and the sound changed from near to far, and slowly became blurred.

Yang Di closed his eyes, breathed heavily, and slowly regained his composure.

On the other side of the Hornets locker room, the atmosphere is a little more relaxed.

Byron Davis and Magloyer had a lot of talk and laughter, because the team's first-half pressure gave the Hornets hope of winning this game. And as long as the two teams are back on the same page once they defend the two home courts, the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of New Orleans, who started behind.

"As soon as Yang Di got off the court, the whole inside line was much easier." Mageloyle and Byron Davis said.

Byron Davis nodded, he understood Yang Di's terrifying defensive ability, and when Grant was there, one top man and one fill-in position, complemented each other perfectly. "Relatively speaking, although Lamar is one street ahead of him in attack, he is completely inferior to Yang Di in defense."

"This guy has too much power." "It's good that he's not very tall, I feel like he's full of strength, like a hard rock, you know, I feel like Shaquille O'Neal who is one size smaller, or Ben Wallace who is half a head taller. ”

"Rebounds are very good at grabbing, and the action is not small." Magloyl rubbed his chest, taking in the toughness of his opponent.

"If he comes back on in the second half, I find a way to go out of my way to foul him and get him off." Byron Davis is the best way to solve the problem by grasping the weakness of Yang Di's love to jump and getting him off the court.

……

With 2:18 left in the third quarter, Van Gundy sent Youngdy back onto the court, along with Grant, Wade, Odom and Eddie Jones.

It was the Hornets' best game of the round, with the Hornets leading the Heat by nearly nine points at 74-65.

Seeing Yang Di on the field, Magloyer and the others were all in their hearts, and their attention was all focused.

"Strengthen the offensive and defensive transitions." Yang Di walked to Wade's side and said to Wade, Wade nodded, glanced at Yang Di with surprise, and thought that this was probably the head coach's arrangement.

David Wesley misses jumper.

Off the court, Yang Di, who was stuck in the main position, jumped up and grabbed the rebound with both hands.

Wade turned around and walked away without hesitation, Eddie Jones saw Wade play a fast break, and also subconsciously reflexively left, a trace of doubt flashed in his mind, should he let Lamar dribble and advance?

Odom thought the same thing, and his hands were stretched out to catch the ball.

But Yang Di, who grabbed the rebound, immediately turned around like a top, bypassing Magloyer who was behind him.

"What?"

Margloyle was taken aback, how could this guy dribble on his own?

Yang Di turned around quickly, the basketball was firmly controlled by him in his hand, he took a big step, reached out to follow, the ball was on his side, and the man and ball were combined.

Odom's eyes were about to fall out, so why did he push it himself?

At this time, someone from the Hornets also reacted, George Lynch looked at the big tall dribble, and always felt awkward in his heart, and pounced with his hands open, wanting to break Yang Di's dribble.

Yang Di's eyes narrowed, his left foot stepped out to the left, and his right hand was sent to his crotch.

"Snap" twice, a crotch dribble changed direction during the march, and easily dodged George Lynch's pounce.

The audience exclaimed, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Di had already rushed through the halfway!
