Pippen did not join, and the strength of the Rockets was weaker than Yang Rui's previous life, but they played a wonderful game. The biggest contributors to the win were not the veterans Barkley and Olajuwon, but the two rookie youngsters.

Michael Dixon, who was the 14th pick in the first round, and Catino Mobley, a rookie with a total of 41 in the second round, became the team's starters as soon as they joined the Rockets, and their performances were eye-catching.

Mobley suffered a loss in the 193CM confrontation, and this time Christie and Maddy did not feel very good, and he did not become a defensive hole.

Dixon didn't guard Carter, and he played well on the offensive end, mixing up and blowing up.

The two rookies were looking for cover on the perimeter to find opportunities, and immediately shot or misplaced offense in response to passes, similar to the Raptors.

The Raptors couldn't resist the impact of Olajuwon and Barkley one-on-one, so they could only shrink the defensive line, and there would inevitably be gaps on the perimeter. Dixon and Mobley both shot 7-of-9 from three-point range and were amazingly efficient.

The Raptors' offense was not weak, Carter scored 32 points and 6 assists, and all six of the team's players scored double-doubles, but they lost on three-pointers. Role players are scary when they, like superstars.

However, the rocket is not far from disintegration. Both stars are older, and they both realize that the Rockets can't win a championship and that even the first round of the playoffs will be hard to get through.

Olajuwon is good to say, after all, there are two crowns in hand, there is no shortage of personal honors, Barkley does not have a ring yet, and he has to think about himself in the last years of his career.

The Raptors' record has improved, and Yang Rui has strengthened his plan to rotate and rest, appropriately reducing the playing time of veterans.

Detreve and Willis are still in great form, but the playoffs are their stage, and the most important thing for them in the regular season is to stay healthy, be the boss in the locker room, and help the newcomers.

If the newcomers practice less, can't play with confidence, and can't play their strength in the playoffs, the Raptors will be unlucky.

After Yang Rui analyzed the schedule, he controlled that each player played no more than 30 minutes, and only Carter played a relatively long time, with an average of 35 minutes per game.

The only guy on the team who hasn't been rested is Carter, and that's a test for him and something the core of the team has to do. It's never a good thing for a young player to rotate when he's just coming into the league.

The core must not only have excellent skills, but also have a brave heart, and it is the superstar who can lead the team to win in the face of adversity. As long as Carter withstands the pressure, after this season's tempering, he will definitely become stronger next season.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Carter made rapid progress, and in the second season, he was already a superstar who averaged 25.7 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game.

On March 27, the Raptors defeated the Spurs 103-97 on back-to-back roads.

The Spurs have a good 18-9 record, mainly relying on the interior twin towers to lead the whole team, with a balance of offense and defense.

The biggest highlight of this game is that Duncan played against O'Neal Jr. and Cato, and only scored 7 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks, 3 of 8 shots, and 1 of 2 free throws.

Duncan didn't shoot much, but the interference of the Raptors' two newcomers to his shooting was also obvious, and Duncan couldn't score easily under the basket from start to finish.

Therefore, there are more people who are optimistic that the Trail Blazers will win the championship, and the two interior lines they sent are marginal people, but they are all mixed up in the Raptors, and the interior players of this team are stronger.

The Trail Blazers have stars inside and outside this year, and even if Camby is injured, they still guarantee a winning percentage and are currently at the top of the league at 22-5. Unfortunately, the Trail Blazers' player stats are relatively average, and even if they have the best record, no one can win the MVP.

On the 28th, the Raptors played against the bad team Bulls at home, and Yang Rui changed his playing style and focused on practicing tactics.

Throughout the game, the Raptors didn't go on a fast break, O'Neal Jr. gave Billups off-ball cover on the side, helping him catch and shoot, and Christie attracted the defense in the bottom corner. Carter and Miller play blocking and dismantling in the middle, can attack with the ball, can pass to the side or break back to the middle Miller.

Billups and Miller do not shoot directly after receiving the ball, but can also control the ball for secondary organization and patiently look for opportunities.

The second quarter was played in a similar way, with Maddy being the man with the ball in the middle, Detreve being the one blocking and pick-and-roll, Di Brown running on the side, Willis covering, and Ryan Bowen in the bottom corner.

Without wrapping the clip, after blocking and dismantling, Maddie and Carter will give full play to their physical advantages to force the basket, and the opponent's formation shrinks the pack, and it is easy to have opportunities in the bottom corner.

Bowen played 34 minutes in this game, shooting 5-of-9, 2-of-4 three-pointers, and 2-of-2 free throws, scoring 14 points and 5 rebounds, scoring a career-high high.

For Bai Baowen, Yang Rui spent a lot of effort to adjust.

He started the season by telling Bowen, "Ryan, if you practice your corner three-pointer, you're a great role player if you dare to shoot in this position." If you don't dare to vote, you'll be just a blue-collar worker with no data for the rest of your life, and you won't play more than 20 minutes, and you'll be of limited help to the team. ”

Bowen is a very honest and obedient player, he will do whatever the coach tells him to do, and he will arrive at the stadium at 8 o'clock at the time of training, and this person will not be 5 minutes early or 5 minutes late, especially punctual.

Since joining the Raptors, Bowen has been practicing the right bottom corner three-pointer, and he dares to shoot when the position is vacant, not for anything else, just because the coach said that even if he doesn't have the confidence to shoot, he has to throw the ball towards the basket.

Although his shooting rate is only 33.3%, he doesn't shoot much, which is much better than the Bowen in his previous life who obviously had the ability to shoot but didn't shoot, and finally became a strange blue-collar worker.

Bowen was in great shape, not only making two three-pointers, but also making a mid-range shot, two baseline layups, one of which was a lever to dodge the defense.

The environment creates people, and watching his teammates fly around in the team all day long, Bowen learned two tricks and dared to perform.

The Raptors beat the Bulls 97-78, and the defense was not bad after reducing the tempo, and the players had a deeper understanding of the tactical movement.

Against the Cavaliers on the road, the Raptors continued to practice positional tactics and played a high score of 121 to 101.

Lithuanian center Ilgoskas was reimbursed for the season due to an ankle injury, and "Rain Man" Kemp returned to the NBA after a nine-month vacation, becoming a fat man, slow and defensive black hole.

The star of the house is not as good as before, and the strength of the Cavaliers is obviously weakened.

DeBron convulsed again, shooting 8-of-14 from three-point range. Carter played just 28 minutes, finishing with 14 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, earning his first career triple-double.

After three consecutive wins, the Raptors are 21-9 and have jumped back to the top of the Eastern Conference. The Heat are 20-9, the Knicks and Magic are 21-10, and the Pacers are 20-10, with a very close top-five record.

The Hawks are 18-12, the Pistons are 16-13, and the prospects for the East are confusing, and they could fall behind if they lose a few games in a row.

The Raptors finished bottom of the East last season, and before the end of their season, they have won five more games than last year. According to many media analysis, Yang Rui has locked in the best coach award of this season in advance!
