After a half-quarter break, Yang Di appeared on the stage.

The Rockets have a lot of strength, especially after having Artest, the defensive combination of Artest and Battier on the bench can simply lock up more than half of the league's swingmen who claim to have outstanding scoring ability.

Fortunately, the Warriors' scoring ability on the wing has not been very strong, and the dependent Monta Ellis is actually a two-way guard, and even plays point guard for a little more time.

Yang Di's appearance means that both sides must have changed the main force, Yang Di's playing time this season is only 35 minutes, the same as the Rocket's Maddy, far lower than the Iron Man's Artest.

After Artest came to the Rockets, the playing time was "significantly" reduced, from an average of 38 minutes and 39 minutes per game to an average of about 36 minutes per game.

Van Gundy still relies on and loves this player, who can defend and attack, is not afraid of confrontation, and brings the toughness that the Rockets need most.

"Increasing passing, increasing the speed of rotation, and adding some outside shots appropriately."

Montgomery asked for advice and told Baron Davis, the main point guard.

At this time, the Warriors are mainly playing two guards, Grant Hill is in the small forward position, and the interior is still Yang Di and Biedrins.

The Warriors have a fast lineup, with Byron Davis and Monta Ellis taking turns attacking the Rockets' interior and being aggressive.

At halftime, the Warriors led the Rockets by seven points, 57-50.

At halftime, the Rockets held an emergency meeting.

When Van Gundy was not on the court, he had a clear mind and a fast head, and he said to the Rockets players: "I still hope that everyone will play our own characteristics, the Warriors are constantly speeding up now, this problem we encountered in the Western Conference Finals last year, when the Warriors are speeding up to a very high level, if we follow their rhythm, then the game will not be far away." No matter how fast he is, he still needs a round of attack, and he only gets 2 and 3 points, but if the rhythm is out of order, the gap may be opened up by two waves. ”

"The purpose of our slowdown is to play the positional battles we need, and the Warriors are good at switching offense and defense, and we have to admit that they have better talent and power than us when it comes to switching offense......"

Youngdy scored just nine points in the half, with the top scorer being Byron Davis, who scored 17 points in the half and was on a hot streak.

After a fifteen-minute break, the second half began.

Yang Di felt that Byron was in good shape today, so he naturally reduced his role in attacking with the ball, obviously in the Chinese derby, but he was more willing to see his teammates play.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Byron suddenly gave Yang Di, who hit a mid-range shot and scored a double.

At this time, the Warriors were 59-50, and the full-game point difference was stretched to the maximum.

Yao Ming turned his hand and hooked his hand out, Yang Di dribbled to the front court, handed it to Byron Davis to break through, Byron Davis shook off Alston with a change of direction, and encountered the Rockets in the middle distance and distributed it to Ray Allen on the outside, Ray Allen's three-point shot was missed, and the rebound was protected by Yao Ming.

The Rockets attacked, and Maddie missed a jumper.

Yang Di rebounded, then Ariza broke through and missed a layup, and Yao Ming rebounded.

The Rockets really did as Van Gundy said, steady and steady, slowly advancing, and when they reached the frontcourt position, Yao Mai blocked and dismantled, and Yao Ming, who went down, received Maddy's clever ball.

Yang Di came over to wrap up, and Yao Ming made a direct mid-range jumper in front of Yang Di.

After making a decisive shot, the hit rate seems to have increased, and it hits directly!

"Actually?"

Yang Di turned his head and looked, his ball was a completely judged defense, and the interference with Yao Ming's shooting should be great, but Yao Ming still hit it steadily, and there are indeed many obvious advantages in growing taller.

52 to 59.

Two rounds later, Yang Di attacked Scola in the low post, and the Rockets were a little slower, and Yang Di directly scored the ball in a half-toss posture under the basket.

61 to 52, the scoring rate of each round is not very high, but the score is slowly rising.

Maddy's mid-range jumper, Artest's mid-range jumper, and the Rockets' retro way of scoring are all desirable in this era.

The Warriors are a little different, but after all, they have won 2 championships, which also proves the value of small balls, and the style of play is more sought after by fans.

After Ray Allen's three-point shot, the Warriors took the lead to 70 points.

In the second half of the third quarter, Byron Davis continued his inexplicable performance, not only hitting outside three-point shots and assisting teammates to score, but also frequently impacting the Rockets' interior line, causing Scola, Artest, Yao Ming and others to foul respectively, and Alston received his fourth foul just over halfway through the third quarter and was forced to go off.

Hyde, who was replaced on the field, was even worse, not as good as Artest.

The Rockets' No. 1 position was a weak mess, and Byron made 10 free throws in the quarter, hitting all of them, and scored 31 points in the third quarter.

This "bearded" Byron Davis is simply the nemesis of the Rockets! ”

Cai Nan exclaimed, in an extremely exaggerated tone: "Byron Davis has scored 31 points, oh my God, the Rockets' No. 1 defense is useless, in the face of Byron Davis's steel bulldozer-like offense, it is weak and not presentable, Byron Davis also sent 11 assists, and it only took 3 quarters to complete a 30+10 data, and there is a reason why Byron Davis was selected into the All-Star Game this year." ”

"The Warriors' record is also a key factor, after these three people got together, the record is much better than expected, and now it is three wins higher than the Celtics, if nothing else, the first place in the record list this season is the Warriors, and the coaches also pay more attention to this when the All-Star is elected."

In the court highlights at the end of the third quarter, the cut film was mostly Byron Davis footage.

Byron has indeed become the most eye-catching player on the field today, directly stealing the limelight of the Chinese derby, which is unexpected but understandable.

"Rocket Buster."

Yang Di smiled and chatted with Ray Allen on the bench, and the two of them were rested, leaving Byron on the field, who was in excellent form, to lead the team, and Monta Ellis had a lot less ball.

"Byron's strongest point is that his breakthrough is simply a historic breakthrough, and his breakthrough now is less to more confrontation, compared to before, the loss is smaller, but the effect is greater." Ray Allen said analytically that he was also a good breakthrough player when he was young, but now it is not as good as before, that is, in the two years of the Warriors, the degradation is too great, only the catch-and-shoot jumper and various jump shooting skills are still there, and they can be used often.

"Breaking through is not about passing, it's about killing the opponent better, and if the breakthrough can cause the opponent to foul, that's the ideal state."
