Chapter 178

Sure enough, in the 8th minute, Dayao was already sweating profusely, and Adelman had to replace Dayao.After losing Dayao, the Rockets' offensive strength has weakened a lot. Uncle Mu is old and Scola is still young. They can't do well in the face of Bynum.

Adelman immediately adjusted the Rockets' tactics and began to focus on outside shooting.Odom and Brooks started to play pick and roll, Brooks has speed, Odom has shooting.The Lakers don't have a good solution to this tactic. Neither Fisher nor Gasol can prevent the Rockets from playing big or small.

After Dayao went down, the Rockets' situation turned out to be better.Everyone was surprised, and the Zen master did not expect that the rocket would have such a coup.He pondered for a while, and did not adjust immediately, but waited until the first quarter was over before making adjustments.

In the second quarter, Zen Master now took Kobe off the court and let Wu Di lead the team, along with Pekovic, Sun Yue, Vujacic and Ariza.Only by going up like this can we break the Rockets' pick-and-roll. Wu Di plays the fourth position and Ariza plays the one position.

After playing, Wu Di began to face Odom.Odom is newly married (a year earlier than in reality), and now he can be said to be very proud. Although he left the Lakers, a strong team, he joined the Rockets, a strong team. He was originally supposed to be the third or even fourth boss.

But McGrady was suddenly abolished, and Odom's status immediately rose.Dayao alone cannot exert all his energy. Adelman had to find a substitute tactic when Yao was not on the court, and then Odom was chosen.The improvement of tactical status has also increased Odom's scoring, and he has become the second leader of the Rockets.

In addition, when Odom was in the Lakers, he met Paris Hilton. Through the introduction of Paris, Odom met Kohler Kardashian.After dating for a few months, the two got married in a flash, and now is the time for deep affection.

Odom, who is proud of the spring breeze, is now smiling when he sees everyone. He met Wu Di during the All-Star season, and the conversation was very good.But now on the court, he doesn't want to continue friendship with Wu Di, and there are coaches watching him off the court!
The Rockets serve, and Brooks once again plays a pick-and-roll with Odom.Ariza was blocked, Brooks broke inside.Wu Di immediately went up to meet him. Brooks tried to hit the big one with a small one, but he shook it left and right twice, but he couldn't shake Wu Di away.In desperation, Brooks passed the ball directly to Odom.

Odom catches the ball, and Ariza immediately closes in, leaving no room for Odom to shoot.Odom struggled a few times, trying to avoid Ariza, but Sun Yue immediately surrounded him and double-teamed Odom.

The current No. [-] position of the Rockets is Brent Barry. This is a relatively comprehensive small forward who has won the dunk title and participated in the three-point contest.He is the fourth person who can take off and dunk from the free throw line, but he is still the first white dunker, and he still has strength.

In his peak period, he averaged nearly 15 points per game, but now he is no longer good, so Zen master will arrange this way.If it was Artest, the Zen master really didn't dare to make such an arrangement, because Artest's three-pointers are sometimes fatal.

Odom had no choice but to guard everyone else. Odom could only pass the ball to Barry. After receiving the ball, Barry immediately opened up and shot.Fortunately, the ball was scored.

The Zen master looked at it and shook his head. There is really no way.

But the Lakers' offense is also very smooth, because it is Odom who defends Wu Di, and Odom's defensive ability is not as good as Artest.Wu Di hit Odom with his back, and Odom was blocked by Wu Di after a few hits, and then Wu Di dunked under the basket.

If you want to defend Wu Di, the Rockets must have Hayes, and only Hayes can have the strength to prevent Wu Di's back attack.But Adelman didn't dare Hayes, Hayes is a floor player, not as tall as Wu Di, Wu Di can easily shoot over Hayes' head.Compared with Wu Di's shooting, Adelman wants Wu Diqiang to hit the basket.

The Rockets continued to play the pick-and-roll, Sun Yue double-teamed Odom again, Odom passed to Barry again, and Barry missed a three-pointer this time.The rebound was taken off by Wu Di. After getting the rebound, Wu Di immediately squeezed Brooks away and rushed forward.

Wu Di, who accelerated, looked like a tank, even more shocking than James when he ran.

The Rockets also wanted to stop Wu Di, but Barry was pushed away as soon as he came up, and Odom also came to block, but Ariza and Sun Yue had already rushed to the basket and the corner.Wu Di immediately made a long pass and passed the ball to Ariza under the basket.Although Ariza is very iron, there is still no problem with dunking. He jumps and dunks when he catches the ball.

The fast attack was successful, and the Zen master breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that there is nothing wrong with the arrangement this time. If the Rockets do not make adjustments, the game will be won.

Adelman was worried this time, he didn't expect Wu Di to become the rocket's confidant.He regretted a little, but it was of no use.He could only watch Wu Di wreaking havoc on the inside of the Rockets, and at the bench, Hayes?No, Wu Di's touch is very good today, and Hayes will definitely be shot through.

After looking at it again, I can only go to Artest.He beckoned Artest over, and then blessed a few words.Artest went to file and waited for a dead ball opportunity to play.

Another round, Barry's shot missed again, and Pekovic grabbed the rebound.Pekovic immediately passed the ball to Sun Yue. Sun Yue dribbled well. He dribbled the ball and ran forward, but was blocked by Odom.Wu Di immediately rushed to the basket, Sun Yue passed the ball, and Wu Di made a layup under Scola's defense and caused Scola's foul.

Wu Di made a free throw and Artest replaced Barry.The Rockets continued to play the pick-and-roll. After Artest came up, Sun Yue didn't dare to double-team Odom.

Without Sun Yue's double-teaming, Odom fired again and made a mid-range shot under Ariza's defense.

The Rockets' offensive power has once again increased, but their main force has no chance to rest.

In the 7th minute, the two sides began to make large-scale substitutions, and the Lakers replaced Kobe and Gasol.The Rockets also replaced Dayao and replaced another speedy point guard, Kyle Lowry, to continue their style of play in the first quarter.

The Lakers and Rockets continued to have strong offensive firepower, and even the Rockets, the defensive team, also scored high.

The halftime score was 68:66, which is still rare in the playoffs. Generally, in the playoffs, one side has more points and the other side has less points, or both sides have fewer points, but there has never been a time when both sides have high scores .

But the Lakers audience was very happy. They were able to see an offensive battle in the playoffs, which was definitely worth the ticket money.
