Starting with 2006

Chapter 76 The Hidden Thing

The rocket's offense has always had this problem, that is, it relies too much on Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady!
Once Yao Mai can't give the team more support on the offensive end, the team's offense can easily fall into a state of constipation.

Van Gundy knew this problem, so he, an honest man, had the cheek to argue with the team for a long time, and finally tried his best to let the stingy and stingy owner abandon the potential rookie Rudy Gay and sign the panacea he wanted Shane!
In his eyes, Battier is a very suitable player for the Rockets system. Not only can he take over the opponent's top scorer for the injured McGrady on the defensive end, but also his three-pointer on the offensive end is also a sharp weapon to break the game!
Obviously, Battier did not let him down, at least in this important game he showed the level he should have. In the previous game, he once shot 39% of his career three-pointers while maintaining around 30%. The three-point shooting rate is less than [-]%, which has to make everyone doubt the correctness of this signing.

Fortunately, Battier's defense is still so active and aggressive, and he can still provide what the team needs on the outside. Otherwise, Van Gundy would really consider whether to take him into the starting lineup and put him on the bench.

But today, Battier is obviously feeling better. He hit four three-pointers in the first quarter, which is an important contributor to the Rockets' lead!
At the beginning of the second quarter, Gao Tian brought the substitute again, and the Rockets did not let McGrady continue to defend Gao Tian, ​​but let him sit and rest off the court. For competitions, it is still necessary to manage time normally.

Gao Tian, ​​who has been wrestling with McGrady for a whole quarter, is really helpless, because a young man like McGrady with a white horse and silver gun would actually do so many dirty jobs that are not on camera like a normal defensive player.

This is his attitude!

Gao Tian knew what he meant, so in the battle between the two, Gao Tian didn't call for help defense. It was extremely difficult for them to make shots under the opponent's defense. Coupled with the needs of the team's tactics, their scoring was only a mere individual. digits.

Gao Tian looked at Battier in front of him. He knew that Battier's defense was very good, but he had been entangled with McGrady for so long and suddenly felt that playing those tricks seemed meaningless.

Suddenly too lazy to think so much, isn't it bothersome to guess and go?
Gao Tian directly accelerated and forcibly smashed Battier away. Hayes, who turned around and dodged the defense, made a backhand layup to avoid Juwan Howard's block and scored two points.

Seeing Gao Tian's smooth operation, Van Gundy's tooth roots were a little itchy, this is talent!

When Maddy watched all this, his eyes lit up for a moment, and then dimmed again. I could do the same when I was young, but...

Touching his aching shoulder, McGrady thought of himself who was omnipotent in magic, how chic he was with a silver gun and a white horse!
With a three-pointer and a one-step dunk, Gao Tian showed off his talents in front of millions of spectators, while Battier, who is known for his defense and bloodiness, could only watch Gao Tian score at will.

"Haha, Kenny, look at Jeff's face now."

Kenny Smith shrugged helplessly when he heard this.

"No way, if I were him, I think my expression would be uglier than his!"

This is indeed a fact. No coach can just watch his players being humiliated by the opponent in such a simple and rude way. This is a blatant discrimination against your talent!
Seeing that Gao Tian made a steady mid-range shot after shaking Battier, who was lower than him, so that he almost couldn't stand up, Van Gundy couldn't bear it anymore, and called a timeout to prepare for the main players to play.

The firepower of the Suns did not weaken after Gao Tiantian. Under the leadership of Nash, the Suns, who launched a bombardment, overtook Van Gundy and established a very leading advantage at halftime under Van Gundy's helpless eyes.

Watching the Rockets' defense under Nash's go-betweens, they couldn't touch the North, and touched his smooth head. Van Gundy glanced at the Rockets' players.

Looking at the very tired McGrady, he finally sighed, there is no way, the only one in the team who can break this game is McGrady, but now McGrady's body does not allow him to do that.

Persevere and persevere!

As long as the point difference hasn't been opened by the end of the fourth quarter, then you can fight yourself!
But obviously, D'Antoni naturally wouldn't give them this chance. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Gao Tian didn't have an emotional dispute with McGrady. In the middle of the game, the Suns simply showed their power to deal with the dying Rockets. Even in the end, McGrady and Yao Ming teamed up to catch up with only six points in the last 3 minutes, but the three three-pointers of Nash and Gao Tian completely killed the suspense of the game !

"Tsk tsk, what a pity, why is the game over!"

Director Xu sighed with some reluctance.

This also represents the aspirations of all the fans. After watching the game, the players of the Bayi team were silent, watching their compatriots smashing the Quartet in the NBA. Glory to the country on the stage, on the other hand, is unspeakable jealousy and melancholy.

It really feels that they are not in the same world as them. They can understand that Dayao gained a foothold in the NBA and even became famous because of his unique innate talent.

But a 19-year-old boy who is much younger than them can radiate light that is not inferior to everyone in the NBA, a stage where superstars shine. This has to make them confused and even jealous.

After roughly looking at the teammates around him, he knew what these people were thinking, including himself, why didn't he?

It's just that he once had a good opportunity, and he could stay there, so he felt even more sad.

"Although the match was wonderful, Gao Tian and Yao Ming have never really faced each other. Even the match between McGrady and Gao Tian was just a flash in the air. It seems that the coaches of both sides are deliberately keeping something ?”

Director Zhang was a little puzzled, they had expected the trend of this game, but the process looked exciting but it seemed...

Calm?

"It seems that these two teams have a lot of things that have not been shown. I really look forward to the day when they meet in the playoffs!"

Hearing Director Xu's words, Director Zhang also nodded slightly in agreement.

Olajuwon stared strangely at Gao Tian who was exchanging jerseys with Yao Ming, he was really startled.

Although Gao Tian's performance in this game was not good, Olajuwon knew that he was hiding his strength and deliberately restrained his desire to attack, especially when facing McGrady.

How many years haven't you seen such a dominant rookie?
The last one was that old rascal!
Fortunately, he didn't agree to Barkley's bet. Thinking of this, Olajuwon was a little lucky, and looked at Kenny Smith gratefully. He almost fell into the trap of that bastard Barkley!
It seems that I really need to pay attention to this rookie seriously. Olajuwon has a hunch in his heart that he will bring unexpected changes to the NBA that he seems to have died!
