Chapter 51 (Fifty) The Brave and Invincible CTM
Chauncey, who was unharmed after a simple diagnosis, also returned to the court, and the Rockets once again gathered three core players.

Kobe was criticized by the Zen master at the beginning of the game, but he lost his desire to attack and made few shots.The Lakers were stumbling offensively, but the defensive end still caused a lot of trouble for the Rockets. After Tracy McGrady played the first quarter and took a break, the Rockets didn't have many options, basically only relying on the combination of Yao Ming and Billups to attack.Difficulties finally stimulated Billups' creativity. Facing the strong guard Fisher who came off the bench, Chauncey used accelerated breakthroughs as his main response method to repeatedly disrupt the Lakers' three-second zone, and sent assists for Dayao after many breakthroughs.In the face of Payton, who has a strong defensive ability, he played steadily with his back and singles, waiting for an opportunity to sneak a shot, while scoring points, while observing the audience to output shells for his teammates at any time.

"Billups is playing more and more like McGrady. It seems that technology is also contagious." Kenny Smith explained.

Tang Shuai was very satisfied with Billups' performance, and praised: "It seems that Chauncey has completely got rid of the downturn, and now he is playing freely."

"That's the purpose of signing him at the beginning. Chauncey is considered to be a guard with very comprehensive skills. No matter what the team's configuration is, he can plug and play. Now he seems to go a step further and can adjust the field strategy in a targeted manner. It seems that he is not far away from being selected as an All-Star." Yuan Fei is also very pleased.

In this quarter, Chauncey scored 8 points and 4 assists. Under his leadership, Yao Ming's state has recovered, and he didn't suffer much against O'Neal.In the first half, the two sides battled to a 49 tie.

In the third quarter, Tang Shuai sent the running and bombing lineup led by Maddie Parker, and Zen Master quickly replaced O'Neal when he saw the trick.But because Kobe had no desire to attack, the Lakers struggled, and Payton Sr. could only take on the heavy responsibility of attacking the city.Payton failed to send an assist in this quarter, but scored 9 points.And McGrady 10+3+3 broke out again. At 71:80, the Rockets lead.

In the fourth quarter, the two sides basically adjusted back to the starting lineup, announcing the start of the decisive battle.Yao Ming, who was well rested, leaned on O'Neal and reached for the ball. Unfortunately, George intercepted Wallace's pass and Kobe got the ball and hit a three-pointer.

Yao Ming continued to reach out for the ball, this time he got a pass from Chauncey and turned around to touch O'Neal for a jump shot. O'Pang subconsciously stretched out his hand and the whistle blew for a foul.

Yao Ming made 2 of 2 free throws, 74:82.

George, Wallace and Fisher hit three irons in a row, and the ball was handed over to McGrady. He faked and shook George, and easily broke through and passed the ball to Yao Ming.The latter takes 3 points lightly.

O'Neal beat Yao Ming hard, this time in turn caused Yao Ming to foul.Ao Pang played at a super level and made 2 of 2 free throws, 76:82.

"Haha, I only fouled twice." O'Neill grinned and said: "You have fouled four times, be careful to send it off!"

Yao Ming also smiled and said nothing.He still likes a straightforward person like O'Neill.

Billups missed the shot, but he immediately forced Fisher to dribble out of bounds, and the Rockets still had the ball.

McGrady hit another three-pointer, and George could only shake his head and yell helplessly.

O'Neal singles again with the ball, this time causing Okur's foul.The fat man made 2 free throws again, 2:78.

McGrady broke through George's defense again and missed a layup, but caused O'Neal's foul.McGrady also made 2 free throws.

Kobe observed McGrady and seemed to realize something.His performance in these few rounds is the so-called "pass and sudden shot" three threats, right?It's time for me to strike back.

George, who has been beaten to tears by McGrady on the defensive end, is still sober on the offensive end.He found Kobe who was reaching for the ball.Kobe turned around and made a difficult jumper. A three-pointer also helped George get an assist.But immediately Yao Ming wanted the ball again and caused O'Neal to foul, and he still made 2 free throws.

"There were a lot of free throws in the fourth quarter. The centers on both sides made 4 fouls, which is a bit dangerous." Kenny Smith explained.

O'Neill made a shot.Billups immediately hit back with a shot. 83:91 points difference is still 8 points.

"O'Neal played very dominant in the fourth quarter, but his teammates rarely stood up to help him share. Now this game looks like a CTM (Chauncey, Tracy, Ming) combination composed of McGrady, Yao Ming and Billups played O'Neal alone." Barkley said.

The calm Zen master finally couldn't sit still and called a pause.The Rockets were very confident, and Tang Shuai didn't make too many changes in the arrangement, but simply said: "Go and penetrate their inside line. O'Neal has made four fouls. Get rid of him."

You come and go and play a few more rounds, and Jefferson fouled O'Neal again.

Unwilling to stop there, O'Neal yelled and fouled Yao Ming, making 2 of 1 free throws.Both were 5 guilty.

Yao Ming didn't worry at all, his teammates could win the game even if he was off the field.And if the Lakers lose O'Neal, it's over.Dayao thought so, and his mentality was very relaxed. Facing O'Neal, who was a bit timid on the defensive end, he succeeded in a jumper, 87:98.

Grant's jump shot hit the iron, but O'Neal grabbed the offensive rebound to make up for it and caused Okur's foul.The extra penalty was also hit, 90:98.

Yao Ming played O'Neal in singles. After a flexible turn, he raised his long arms and was about to shoot a jumper. O'Neal reached out to block the shot in a hurry, and the thug fouled!

奥尼尔长叹一口气，6犯离场。他在第四节砍下11分3篮板撑起了球队，连不擅长的罚球也有9罚7中。大姚2罚1中，90:99。

Phil Jackson also let out a long sigh, and the ball was over again.

In the end 94:108, the Rockets beat the Lakers again.Yao Ming contributed 29+11. In the critical fourth quarter, he made all 4 shots and 8 of 7 free throws. He scored 15 points and fouled O'Neal.McGrady contributed 30+8+11 gorgeous data, and Billups also scored 21+7+6.After the game, the front-line reporter described in a press release: "McGrady dominated the first and third quarters, Billups supported the second quarter, and in the fourth quarter Yao Ming went down to earth. The CTM combination showed their power one after another and completely defeated the Lakers led by the Big Three."

湖人队方面，奥尼尔打出了28+9+4+4，表现出色。科比状态不佳仅仅得到18分。佩顿也仅有19+3+3。更坑的是梅德维登科，他全场13投1中仅仅得到3分。湖人队员此刻无比想念他们的首发大前锋卡尔.马龙（注：奥尼尔最后一节被火箭逼出5次犯规罚下是史上这场比赛中发生的真实事件）。

Some American Chinese fans have spread the name of the fluent CTM group to the other side of the ocean.Chinese fans also immediately fell in love with this new term with similar national curse words.

But what is gratifying is that they don't need to wait until a few days later to see the CTM combination show off their power again.Because this weekend is the All-Star Weekend in 04.Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady were re-elected as the All-Star starters, and Billups was also elected as the All-Star substitute. The three have already taken the opportunity to go to Angel City to prepare to show their talents in the All-Star Game.
