I'm the boss in the NBA

Chapter 71 Rocket Trident

In the 6 minutes of the first quarter, the score of the two teams came to 17 to 8, and the Rockets led by 9 points. By the time the Pistons called a timeout, Tang Shuai sent All-Star Tracy McGrady, former superstar Ewing, Lao Mao Mo Bree and old striker Kevin Willis were sent to the field, while Su Yi remained on the field.

In the first 6 minutes of the first quarter of this game, Su Yi performed very well. Today, he seemed to be a different person. Facing the strong defense of the Pistons, he used the pick-and-roll cooperation of Randolph and Olajuwon to make a one-time He hit the basket for the first time and completed the offense with dunks and mid-range shots.

There is no such thing as the wretchedness of avoiding the open three-pointer in the past. Instead, he played a positional battle with the Pistons head-on, crushing Stackhouse with his body is his most common offensive method.

In just 6 minutes, Su Yi has scored 11 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. Today, Su Yi is playing well, but Jerry Stackhouse, who is playing against him, was abused by him and almost collapsed. , Obediently send Su Yi the data of steals and blocks.

Stackhouse never imagined that the rookie who was abused by him in the last game, how long has it been since he turned into a big devil and came back to take revenge? Caught off guard.

Back on the field, the Pistons replaced Michael Curry with Joan Barry, who had better shooting ability. James' Su Yi maximizes physical confrontation, using his better physical strength to hit backs regardless of consumption. The opposing Pistons players, whether it is Stackhouse, Atkins, or Michael Curry, are not his opponents. .

And Jordan's back-up turnaround jumper is even more difficult for the Pistons to defend. As long as he can make a shot, no one can prevent him from shooting. It seems that as long as he is physically strong, no one can prevent him, the basketball god.

McGrady was neither angry nor happy when he was put on the court, and took the basketball from Su Yi with a cold face. As long as he came off the bench, Su Yi would hand over most of the ball to him. He was quite satisfied with this. , After all, an All-Star himself has been squeezed into the bench lineup, so he can't be on the bench lineup and have no possession of the ball.

Therefore, the Rockets have acquiesced to McGrady's unlimited shooting rights in the bench lineup, and how many points he can get depends on his personal ability.

And relying on the super many shots when he came off the bench, McGrady's scoring did not drop but rose. When the playing time dropped to 35 minutes, in the last few games, he was able to score 28 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 1.5 points. Steals and 1 block data.

It can make the data look better, and also reduce his resistance to the team with a substitute. At most, the team Su Yi is getting more and more indifferent, even if Su Yi always pleases him when he is on the court and gives him the ball. , nor can it make him less disgusted.

Today, McGrady's desire to attack is even stronger. Seeing that Stackhouse is restrained by Su Yi, he strode past Joan Barry's defense in a big stride. The basketball was thrown, and Joan Barry, who overtook him, could only watch the basketball go through the net.

The head coach of the Pistons, Rick Carlisle, was also very helpless. The Rockets' lineup was so extravagant that they threw all-star players to the bench. What could they do?

McGrady seemed a little resentful today. After scoring a goal, he ignored Su Yi who came up to say hello, clapped his hands with Mobley, and fixed his eyes on the Pistons' ball-handler.

Stackhouse went directly into the three-point line after going to the frontcourt, and Atkins passed the basketball in time.

At this time, in front of Stackhouse was Tracy McGrady who had just scored.

It's not that he wants to get the team back, but that he really doesn't want to face Su Yi anymore. Today, this rookie seems to be his nemesis, which makes him feel the same as when he faced the peak Jordan.

Although Stackhouse has also been abused, he once had a disgraceful moment when he was blown up by Kobe in high school.

However, Su Yi is not a superstar like Jordan and Kobe!At least not yet!
But McGrady is not something Stackhouse can easily solve. Under McGrady's interference, Stackhouse threw the basketball to the basket again, and the sound of iron strikes has been lingering in Stackhouse's ears today.

Ewing easily put the basketball in his arms, looked around, found Su Yi, and gave the basketball to him.

Su Yi took the basketball, dribbled two steps forward, and sent a long pass to McGrady who entered the three-point line in the frontcourt.

Hearing Su Yi's shout, McGrady turned around and took the basketball. In front of him was Stackhouse, a Piston player who quickly chased back to the basket.

He lowered his body, dribbled the ball in one crotch, and then accelerated suddenly, squeezing past Stackhouse, whose center of gravity was unstable.

Stackhouse tried his best to jump up and block McGrady fiercely. It was indeed blocking McGrady, not the basketball. Easy score.

But McGrady didn't care about Stackhouse. Facing the basket that was close at hand, he curled up slightly, and hooked the ball with his right hand towards the basket. House slapped the basketball hoop with a slap, but fortunately a pad blocked him so he didn't get hurt.

The basketball crossed an arc, hit the inner edge of the basket, bounced twice, and fell into the basket.

Didi, the referee blew his whistle and gave Stackhouse a foul.

McGrady slowed down, rubbed his sore shoulder, and made a steady free throw.

Tang Shuai was very dissatisfied off the court. He thought the foul by the Pistons was too vicious, and Stackhouse should be given a technical foul. The Pistons moved too much today, and he was worried that some players would be injured.

But the referee ignored him and let him roar off the court.

To be honest, if it were a young head coach, the referee would send him off immediately when he heard the complaints, but Tang Shuai has high qualifications, so he can't offend too much.

The game time passed by every minute and every second. Whether it was McGrady, Jordan, or Su Yi who ran away today, the Pistons couldn't guard against each other. For the current Pistons, there is no solution.

The Pistons can only rely on shooting to close the score. This is not a common method for the Pistons in the past. They prefer to use fierce defense to keep both teams within 90 points.

But this trick is not easy to use today, and it can't be used anymore. Relying on the offensive arrows of the Rockets Trident, if the Pistons still want to drag the defense slowly, the Rockets can smash the Pistons into steel with a super high hit rate.

At the end of the first half, the scores of the two teams also came to 58 to 42. This was due to Stackhouse's few mindless shots in the second quarter. The percentage of these abnormal shots was not bad. The Pistons finally regained scored some points.

Otherwise, the Pistons could be outscored by more than 20 points at halftime by the Rockets.
