The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 306 Substitutes clash!The art of trash talking!
In the second quarter, it was time for direct confrontation between the two substitute lineups.

With a big wave of Adelman's hand, Bunch Wells, nicknamed "The Stick", and Boss Fu and others appeared together.

In the first round after playing, Wells, a famous Shanxi star, ate Pietrus raw, using his strong physical strength to attack the basket successfully, and also caused Pifacio's shooting foul.

He is considered a rare heavy-tonnage swingman in the league, and his body is somewhat similar to Barkley, but unlike the "Flying Pig", he does not wander inside for a long time.

Excellent speed and explosive power, so that he has a strong ability to break through with the ball, has a great impact on the inside, and also has good back-to-the-basket skills at the basket.

In the playoffs two years ago, facing the defending champion San Antonio Spurs, Wells led the Kings to fight them in six games before losing.

In these six games, he averaged 23.2 points and 12 rebounds per game, and shot an astonishing 62.5% from the field.

It is worth mentioning that, of the 12 rebounds scored against Duncan, 4.2 were precious offensive rebounds.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After coming to the Rockets, this guy lost his rare self-discipline and became a thorny head that once caused the home team a headache.

Not only did his weight soar, but he also disobeyed the leadership of the gentle Yao Mai. He also had a lot of conflicts with the head coach, gradually wasting his state and becoming a member of the bench.

Even so, his offensive ability cannot be ignored.

Although Pifacio's defense is excellent, there is no good way to deal with such a strange-looking player.

Soon, Wells received a pass from Hyde and made a breakthrough layup.

Facing the strength of "Bangzi", the Warriors are naturally not to be outdone.

In the next round, Wells' singles was met with a head-on cap from Biedrins.

After receiving the ball, Ellis raised his whip and urged his horse, and Yiqi Juechen scored the ball in the fast break.

The elderly Fu Boss gave up chasing after halftime, and watched the little Monta motorcycle go away.

Soon, Ellis succeeded in stealing again. When he counterattacked quickly, no one on the Rockets could keep up with him.

One ebb and flow, the Warriors scored again and again under the leadership of Ellis, while the Rockets' offensive efficiency gradually declined.

Yao Mai is not on the court, and their tactics are mainly based on inefficient singles.

Adelman is really a clever woman who can't cook without rice.

The Princeton style of play that he is best at has extremely high requirements on player configuration, and it is impossible to complete the tactical quality of these people on the field right now.

Finally, Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady also returned to the court after Biedrins received the pass.

With the containment of the two, the Warriors' defensive pressure suddenly doubled.

Boss Fu also rarely had an open opportunity, and he hit a three-pointer with a treasured sword.

But as Yang Jian and Yang Yi said before the game, the Warriors are strong because of their youth.

With the same firepower, it is often the opponent who can't hold back first.

Seeing Yao Ming play, the Warriors also replaced Xiaojia and Zhang Bolong, and the offensive and defensive ends gradually increased their speed.

Watching Dayao running back and forth on the field, while Zhang Bolong was able to frequently send the right pass to his teammates, Yang Jian and others couldn't help sighing:
"If only these two could be on the same team..."

In the second half of the second quarter, with Harrington's three-pointer and Landry's mid-range shot, the Warriors once again extended their lead to 10 points.

Until the halftime break, the Rockets failed to recover the double-digit point difference and fell behind temporarily by 50:61.

After the start of the third quarter, both the Warriors and the Rockets experienced power outages to varying degrees.

The Warriors failed to seize several good opportunities because of the decline in their touch, while the Rockets were limited by the Warriors' defense.

PJ. Tucker!

The rookie was assigned the important task of guarding McGrady in the rotation before the game.

When the task was assigned, Barnes and the others inevitably looked at the young man with pity.

Tucker is tough, but McGrady, a scorer who once stood at the top of the league, cannot be dealt with by being tough.

But Tucker still held his head high and turned a blind eye to the sympathy.

Now that the Warriors have given him the chance to stay in the NBA, no matter what the team and the head coach ask him to do, he will do everything he can.

During the game, his performance also surprised all the commentators.

With a strong physique and a brave style, he is decisive and vicious even if he fouls.

Tucker really can't completely stop McGrady, the two-time scoring champion is still there.

His pull-up hasn't fully regressed from its prime and remains one of the most deadly moves in the league.

But anyone can see that he played very uncomfortable, and even started to use the pick-and-roll to try to get rid of Tucker's defense.

Or, just pass the ball out.

It's just that he maintained his rationality, while other Rockets players were full of confidence in themselves.

After Mike James came off the bench, he took the ball directly and threw two shots from beyond the three-point line, the second of which hit the backboard and hit the net.

He scored three points in the way of Zhang Bolong.

Although the goal was scored, it also made the two superstars in the team stare blankly.

This CBA Zhejiang star is not without strength. Two seasons ago, he was still a starter for the Raptors, averaging 20.3 points per game.

The Rockets once launched a frantic pursuit of the old general.

But the biggest problem with this guy is "independence", which has not changed since he joined.

As a point guard, Mike James averaged only 3.5 assists per game in his career.

In addition, he is obsessed with inefficient singles with a shooting rate in the early [-]s. He often sticks to the ball and does not pass the ball in the game, which is even worse than Teague, who caused ridicule by netizens in his previous life.

Even when he played for the Zhejiang team, he was laid off after only eight games in the CBA because of the problem of "playing too independently and not being able to connect with teammates".

Such a player, even if he has the ability to score, will do more harm than good to the team.

Seeing that he was fighting against him when he came up, this made Zhang Bolong very happy.

If you want to talk about Biao, McGrady with 92 points is about the same. Why does your little James with 76 points feel like LeBron?

"Hey, I said man, you can't play like that."

Seeing James approaching with the ball, Zhang Bolong opened his arms and said.

"What did you say?"

"You are just a small role, you should give the ball to Yao or Tracy, you don't think you can score in front of me, do you?"

Hearing what Zhang Bolong said, Mike James was furious.

"Who do you think you are? You are a Chinese rookie who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth. When I averaged 20 points per game, you are probably still raising your broken leg on the hospital bed!"

Zhang Bolong smiled, not paying attention to his trash talk, and continued:
"If you don't believe me, you can give it a try. Hit me one-on-one, and see how many you can score?"
