Legend Raiders

Chapter 573 Explosive one button!
Roar! !

Howard tried his best to touch the basketball in mid-air, but at the distance of Qin Tao's forearm, there was only an unwilling roar!

Landing!

Qin Tao was like a group of wild horses, galloping towards the frontcourt.

The moment Bradley got the ball, he immediately held the ball to keep up.

The other Celtic players, like a torrent, immediately put strong pressure on the Rockets without any hesitation.

At this time.

The moment Qin Tao rushed into the three-point line, Bradley was close to Beverly and threw a long pass to Qin Tao.

The amount in advance is comfortable.

Qin Tao took a step to catch the ball. He didn't forget to turn his head to pay attention to the position of the Rockets player. He turned his head and accelerated to soar into the sky.

Boom! !
Qin Tao's arms were like heavy hammers, as if trying to destroy the entire basket, he smashed the basketball into it.

A frightening muffled sound instantly rang out from the loudspeaker above the basket.

But what made the audience completely still was that when Qin Tao let go of his hands and fell to the ground, there was a bang, and the timing card on the basket was dead.

Silent.

All the fans in the stands stared wide-eyed at this moment.

But what made them hate was that under such a violent ball from Qin Tao, they actually felt the blood boiling for a long time.

cheap!
Many fans wanted to slap themselves, but their flushed cheeks already showed the problem.

At this time.

After Qin Tao destroyed the timing card, he seemed to be okay, passing by Howard who was a little dazed, and said to himself, "Damn it! I shouldn't have used too much force!"

FUCK!

Howard's eyes were spitting fire, and his muscles bulged, obviously trying to smash this damn guy.

however.

Qin Tao just glanced casually, then turned and left.

cowardly.

In Howard's mind, the picture of Qin Tao hammering someone on the Clippers couldn't help but pop up.

To know.

Because that game belonged to Los Angeles, Howard was the first to watch the game in front of the TV.

That bloody scene is truly unforgettable.

He looked at himself, and then at Qin Tao. Although he was much stronger than the opponent, only he knew what it was like to fight against this kind of person on the court.

That's it!

Howard peeked around and found that no one was paying attention to him, so he returned to the court with a blank expression.

Harden looked at his new partner. Beverly, Jeremy Lin, and Asik also looked at Howard.

Although none of them opened their mouths, there was a smile in the strange look in their eyes.

After the timing cards were replaced, it seemed that the competition between the two sides had really kicked off.

But as Beverly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, the Celtics' suffocating defense caused the Rockets to encounter a lot of trouble.

Especially Howard!

He was almost on the brink of explosion!

Because Qin Tao didn't match up with Terrence Jones at all, and came directly to his side, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

However, Qin Tao's choice, in the eyes of the fans at the scene and even the Rockets' coaching staff, is a very normal choice.

Because the Celtics are slightly weaker overall, sealing one of the strongest Rockets is what they should do best.

So who can defend Howard?
Apart from Qin Tao, there was really no other player in this lineup.

Then their matchup is logical, but it's just Howard suffered.

Simply the Rockets also have Harden, who played very crisply when facing Bradley's defense.

After going to meet Beverly, he immediately launched an offense with the ball in his hand.

breakthrough!

Harden's accomplished feints and breakthroughs immediately put extremely strong pressure on Bradley.

Even though his defense is already very good, even if he has never lost his position, but in front of Harden's classic step-back three-pointer, he, who is completely inferior in size and stature, still failed to defend the ball.

The ball goes in.

Harden raised his left hand high, as if officially declaring war on the Celtics, with great confidence.

Easy to fight again.

The goal of the Celtics is very clear, which is to use all methods to play for Qin Tao.

Qin Tao is naturally very powerful, and the moment the basketball is in his hand, he launched an attack on Terrence Jones.

Double team!

However, while Qin Tao turned his back, Beverly on the outside and Parsons on the flank were ready to double-team at any time.

and.

I don't know if his threat was too terrifying, but after only a few seconds, Beverly and Parsons rushed over without hesitation as if they had received a charge.

but.

After a whole season of experience and a clear identity, Qin Tao doesn't want any core face. When he waits for a suitable opportunity, when he turns to face the frame, the basketball has already appeared in the corner on the right. Green hands.

The elite-level mid-range makes Green very comfortable throwing this ball.

The ball goes in.

Qin Tao scored an assist, and Green also comfortably scored two points.

Next.

The Rockets stubbornly insisted on Qin Tao's strategy, as long as he got the ball, there would be two or three people ready to double-team.

And at this time, it is naturally time to test other Celtics players.

If they can't convert Qin Tao's pass into a score, then they will be in big trouble in an instant.

Simply, these guys have already made such preparations before the start of the game, so whether it is Jeff Green or Bradley, or even Humphries inside, as long as they have the ball in their hands, they will shoot decisively.

Thus.

The Rockets' line of defense suffered huge damage in an instant.

If they didn't choose to double-team Qin Tao, the beast would show its fangs in an instant.

If they continue to play tactics, outside leaks will occur frequently.

a time.

Because of their defensive strategy, they were directly suppressed by the Celtics in the first 5 minutes.

And in this short 5 minutes, they are already eight points behind the Celtics.

time out.

Kevin McHale stared at the off-field players with an ugly expression. He had no idea that after insisting on double-teaming Qin Tao, the other role players would actually feel hot, without any sign of cold hands.

This way down.

His tactics have completely failed. If he can't adjust the mentality of the players and change his tactics immediately, then as long as Qin Tao keeps his focus and state, their final result is self-evident.

subconsciously.

McHale couldn't help but look at the two great players of the team, Harden and Howard.

In the previous 5 minutes, Harden and Howard's performance can only be described as embarrassing.

Harden also scored a three-pointer, but Howard was almost embarrassed to death.

Because as soon as it was the Rockets' turn to attack, he would meet Qin Tao immediately.

Others don't know Qin Tao's role in offense and defense, but McHale knows this better than anyone else.

It's really very difficult for any player to get rid of his defense.

Moreover, from the confrontation between the two last season, McHale is even more convinced that if Howard can't find a way to break the game, then he will be abolished in this game.

So how to take advantage of this?

McHale then looked at Terrence Jones.

This little prince who abused food was completely unable to use his hands and feet in front of Qin Tao, and even when facing Humphries, he was completely unable to show his ability.

If Jones can make some contributions and can keep putting pressure on Qin Tao on the defensive end, then there will be many changes in the next game, and Qin Tao can't always nail Howard to death.
