Chapter 366: Ace Shot (1)

Houston, Toyota Center.

Voices.

“ROCKETSGOOOOOO!”

The DJ led the fans to shout slogans, and the aftermath of the halftime show was underway, and the famous Rocket Bear ran around the stadium, from time to time using the "gift launcher" in his hand, launching a commemorative T-shirt after shirt, causing a burst of scramble from the fans.

In fact, watching any sports game, the perception of the live game is already inferior to the viewing experience in front of the TV.

In today's live sports broadcast, the abundance of cameras given by TV stations, the comprehensiveness of the shots, and the timeliness of content playback have all reached a very high level. Suffice it to say, watching a game in front of a TV and you can see any detail you want to know. However, watching the game at the scene, in addition to the big screen in the center, you can only see a few people running around on the field in the distance.

If the position is not good, and it is far away from the field, it is difficult to tell whether the goal has been scored or not.

However, watching the game live is still sought after by sports fans. In addition to the unique live atmosphere, the different after-entertainment programs given by each team and each stadium during the pause of the live game are also the attraction points.

I still remember how many years ago, when the NBA was just emerging in China, the great Na He General Bureau thought that cheerleading performances during the break were immoral. So during the break, as soon as the cheerleaders come on the field, the screen will be cut back to the studio. You can't see the hot cheerleading performances, you can only watch the host and guests chatting there, or you can only see the advertisements, which makes many fans very dissatisfied.

Fortunately, the situation has changed now, and the cheerleading performances have also been sold advertising naming rights, and even some cheerleading competitions will be held. But I don't know if you feel this way, when you can see these performances anytime and anywhere. On the contrary, I will feel that the cheerleading performance does not seem to be beautiful.

This is human nature, what you can't get is the best, and after you get it, well, it seems to be like that!

Intermission. Both teams were making tactical adjustments, and it wasn't long before the second half of the game was about to start and the players were back on the pitch.

“23!!!!”

At the home of the Rockets, the shouts of 23 consecutive wins are endless, and many fans are holding signs marked with the word "23" in their hands and waving them constantly. The on-site videographer will also capture some interesting signage and broadcast it on the big screen in the center. The fans holding the signs saw that they were "on TV", and naturally waved harder. The shouts grew louder and louder.

In such a virtuous circle, the atmosphere at the home of the Rockets is very good. Although Yao Ming is injured, it is not certain when he will be able to come back, but the fans don't care about this, as long as the team's record is good now, tomorrow's things will be talked about tomorrow.

"Remember all the tactics."

On the 76ers bench, the players were already sitting on the sidelines waiting for the second half to kick off. Cheeks asked for the last time about their readiness.

"No problem."

The players nodded their heads.

During halftime, the 76ers cracked the Rockets' tactical puzzle. The defensive solution given is simple.

But the most important thing is how to catch up on the offensive end, increase the success rate of the attack, and find a way to win the game when the score is behind.

And the key to all this falls on one person.

"Good. The second half of the game is about to begin! ”

On the sideline commentary desk, Smith reminded him that the TV screen was cut to the court. Players from both sides have entered the stadium and the game is about to begin.

"I said Charles, you're not in good shape today!"

As an old partner who has been on the commentary stage for many years. Smith clearly sensed that something was not right with Barkley's form today. You know, both of these teams have been played for by Barkley. Although the years with the Rockets were not fun, and the conflict between Barkley and Glider Drexler was well known, it was also the team that Sir Bar fought for. With his big personality, he should be excited to see the teams he played for at the beginning of his career and the team he played for at the end of his career.

"I'm really a little uncomfortable with you talking so little today. What's wrong? Eating too much pizza and having a bad stomach? Smith asked, half-jokingly, half-seriously.

"Fart! Lao Tzu is the first on the earth to play basketball, and Lao Tzu's stomach is the first in the universe! Bad stomach? You're insulting me! Barkley yelled dissatisfied.

"That's when you see Team Rocket, you think of gliders, haha! You fat guy with a chick's belly! Smith laughed.

"you! Lao Tzu is such an open-minded person, so he will not be like you to compare the past! Barkley retorted.

"Yo, the baht must be such a high-end word! He is worthy of being a top student who has studied in college! Smith laughed, "So what the hell is going on?" A lot of people on Twitter are asking you what happened today. ”

Twitter is taking the United States by storm, and the 140-character world-changing rhetoric is gradually becoming a reality. The TV station also quickly followed up, asking Smith and Barkley to pay more attention to Twitter content during the game and find interesting tweets to share with fans.

At this time, in addition to the discussion on Twitter about whether the Rockets can continue their winning streak and whether the 76ers can end the Rockets' terrifying winning streak, someone also posted a topic that was "what's wrong with Barkley".

Today's live broadcast of the game, Barkley is indeed a little abnormal, the fat man who chatters nonsense on weekdays seems very silent, Smith's own voice is about to dry, Barkley is still watching the game blankly, and he doesn't know what he is thinking about. Naturally, Smith wanted to hype up this topic and find out.

"Alas, mortals."

Barkley glanced at Twitter, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Let's put it this way, my silence is because the game wasn't exciting enough. ”

"Not exciting enough?" Smith asked, puzzled, "I think it's exciting!" The Rockets and the 76ers don't give in to each other, the score is very tight, the game may change unexpectedly at any time, the outcome is unpredictable, and the tactics given by both sides are also very talkative, isn't this exciting? ”

During the break, Smith and Barkley naturally analyzed the Rockets' bizarre air-cutting tactics, and from a professional point of view, with the slow-motion replays constantly given by the TV station, let the fans who followed the game understand the subtlety of the Rockets' tactics somewhat.

"Well, well, I wasn't accurate enough." Barkley shook his head and said: "The game itself is still exciting, but the core players of the two teams are not particularly exciting. ”

"Core players?" Smith flipped through the real-time stats: "Maddie and Chan both had 8 assists in the half, isn't that exciting?" ”

"You know!" Barkley uttered his mantra: "The two of them are doing well here, but their individual performances are not outstanding!" ”

Barkley woke up the dreamer with a sentence, and Smith was also stunned when he heard this, and then reacted that Barkley was right.

Yes, in the first half, Maddie and Chen Mu each served as the core of the team's tactical initiation, delivering 8 assists, which is not bad in terms of statistics. But judging from the field, Maddie does not score well except for assists, and does very little other things, and his presence is definitely not to the point of the absolute core of the team. More often than not, it's like a big point guard, using the team's complex tactics to get assists.

On Chen Mu's side, the iconic rebounds are good, and the assists are also expected to hit a new career high. However, this season, Chen Mu's personal offense has evolved a lot, and so far in this game, there are few singles.

That's right, on the Rockets' side, a large number of packages were implemented on Chen Mu, and on the 76ers' side, Iguodala used the outside gate to target Maddie, which also brought a lot of trouble to Rocket 1. But if this will be prevented, what kind of core of the team are these two people?

"Then I hope that in the future, Chen and Maddie can play at their highest level and make our Sir Ba satisfied! Well, the race is on! ”

The game begins.

On the court, the Rockets attacked, and as soon as the game opened, the Rockets' running position made all fans who had already understood the mystery of the Rockets' tactics feel somewhat familiar.

Alston crosses the ball, Maddie holds the ball on the strong side, and Scola runs back.

"It's this tactic again! It's the sixth time! Smith has been calculating the frequency of the Rockets' tactical use, and of course he also wants to know when the 76ers will be able to fully understand the Rockets' intentions.

And this time, the young people of the 76ers told Smith with their actions:

Rocket tactics, we have completely cracked.

Don't change the guard!

After Scola ran back, Durham Porter and Chen Mu did not take a safe change of defense as in the first half, but let Scola run across the bottom line to the weak side, and Chen Mu simply accelerated from outside the bounds and accelerated around Mutombo.

In that case, then ......

"Whoosh!"

Maddie is worthy of being a superstar, seeing the 76ers' defensive changes, he immediately passed the ball without hesitation, and without waiting for the weird air cut on the weak side to start, he sent the ball directly to Scola hands.

Luis Scola shoots with the ball.

Look down on me?

Scola is also a little angry in his heart, although compared to Maddie and Yao Ming, there is indeed a gap in his attack power, but mid-range scoring is one of his housekeeping skills, and the 76ers actually don't change their defenses?

Then I will die to you!

Scola was ruthless, and immediately after receiving the ball, he made a shot, and at the moment of the basketball shot, the figure flew up.

"Bang!"

Chinese boy, flying eagle cap!

“FASTBREAK!!!!”

Chen Mu sent a block, and the Rockets' outside linemen Alston and Battier hurriedly stepped forward to grab the ball. But what kind of chicken thief is Chen Mu's cover? The basketball flew directly to Lowry, who turned around and began to accelerate after receiving the ball, running past Alston and rushing towards the Rockets half court at super high speed! (To be continued......)
