Chapter 185 Yao Ming's Test
The first quarter ended quickly, and the Spurs trailed by 18 points.

If a fan turned on the TV at this time, he would exclaim loudly after seeing the score, did he read it wrong? Shouldn’t the 18-point difference be the point where the Rockets are behind?

This is simply unbelievable. The Spurs, who have shown extremely strong strength in this round of the series, have never been so embarrassed.

"hateful!"

As soon as Ding Jian returned to the bench, he threw the towel on the ground angrily. He really couldn't understand why the game would become extremely difficult once the Rockets came up with delay tactics.

It's like, I have a lifetime of strength, but I always hit the cotton.

Popovich frowned, and he kept thinking about how to contain the Rockets.

The talent of this Rockets team is really great. The five players present are all All-Star players, and Dugu Ming and Hou Tian are even Hall of Fame players. Although they are the Spurs, they also have two stronger opponents. player, but in other positions, the gap with the Rockets is really not 01:30 points.

"Oberto, you should take a rest first."

Popovich considered for a long time, and finally made up his mind to replace their inside defensive gate.

Now the Spurs urgently need to solve the problem of how to chase points. If it becomes very difficult to score, then there is no point in emphasizing defense. What's more, Oberto can't defend Yao Ming.

"Horry, you replace Oberto! Make more use of your shooting ability."

Popovich gave him an encouraging look.

Horry, the hero of the Lakers' three consecutive championships, won two championship rings in the Spurs after joining the Spurs. As a role player, he has won honors that many superstars cannot match. It can be said to be a blessing. The edge is deep.

Of course, this does not mean that he just lies down and wins. Horry has strong defense, accurate shooting, can pass the ball, does not occupy the ball, and has repeatedly performed well at critical moments. He is an extremely rare champion.

"Consume Yao Ming as much as possible!"

Popovich gave a succinct explanation, and he looked at Ding Jian again, "Don't be afraid of not being able to score in singles. You have to hit the inside more often. Even if the hit rate is not high, it can make the opponent shrink the inside. Opportunities will come out. And once the outside line is made, your efficiency of breaking through and scoring will also increase. This is a virtuous circle. Combining your singles ability into the team system is the right way!"

Ding Jian was thoughtful, and the doubts in his eyes were all swept away.

"Okay! In the second quarter, we must bring the score back!"

Feng Linggao raised his fist and stood in the center of the crowd.

Horry's playing did change the team's offense. When Horry was cooperating with Ding Jian in the pick-and-roll, Duguming no longer dared to let Horry hold the ball, and double-teamed Ding Jian with Yao Ming. Ding Jian took the opportunity Hit Yao Ming a few times.

"Hey, Dayao, give me a break."

Every time Ding Jian scored a goal, he released the burning key to Yao Ming. After a few rounds, Yao Ming felt a heavy sense of fatigue.

"It's strange...it's only in the second quarter, why do I feel that my physical fitness is not enough..."

Yao Ming frowned, feeling very surprised, there wasn't much confrontation tonight, why did he have the desire to lie down...

But he didn't say anything about his physical abnormality.

"This is my best playoff so far. We are only one step away from entering the finals! The team needs me, and I must stick to it!"

Yao Ming clenched his fists, bowed his head and muttered, cheering himself up.

"Hmph, the trapped beast is still fighting."

The instigator, Ding Jian, watched Yao Ming from the sidelines with a sneer on his lips.

Dugu Ming also noticed something was wrong.

After the Spurs replaced Horry, they repeatedly dragged Yao Ming out of the penalty area. When Yao Ming's defensive area expanded, more physical energy consumption followed.

"Yao Ming, Mutombo, use No. [-] defensive tactics!"

Dugu Ming reminded.

Ding Jian dribbled the ball past halftime, repeated his old trick, and called on Horry to pick and roll for him.

But this time, Yao Ming did not step forward. He moved a little and moved to Duncan's side, while Mutombo stepped forward quickly and continued to delay Ding Jian.

"I see……"

Ding Jian suddenly realized.

The three outside players were man-to-man, while the two inside players adopted a zone defense strategy, allowing Yao Ming to guard the basket, and Mutombo stepped forward to delay.

"It's a good idea, but will it work?"

Ding Jian snorted coldly, leaned over suddenly, and a butterfly dribbled the ball through flowers, passing between Duguming and Mutombo.

"So fast!"

Duguming was caught off guard and was passed by Ding Jian, so he hurried back to pursue.

Yao Ming guarded the basket like a mountain, waiting for Ding Jian. There was a siege in front of him and pursuers behind him, but Ding Jian did not dodge or evade. Like a spirit snake, it suddenly dodged to the left.

Eurostep!
It was too late for Yao Ming to react. He barely opened his hand to block the shot, but it hit Ding Jian's arm.

Ding Jian glides in the air, avoids Yao Ming in the air, picks the ball with his left hand, and the basketball jumps into the hoop.

Two plus one.

"What a quick reaction!"

Dugu Ming was secretly startled.

After Ding Jian scored a goal, he immediately cast the burning key, consuming Yao Ming's physical energy, and after the penalty was scored, he cast it again.

Duguming was not overwhelmed by Ding Jian's gorgeous layup, he activated his acceleration skills and scored a goal.

Then he launched a master empty-handed steal and layup.

The activation was the icing on the cake and he made another three-pointer.

He and Ding Jian were like a scoring contest. One side scored a goal, and the other side had to retaliate by scoring a goal. Soon, both of them scored [-] points.

This was a pain for Yao Ming, he didn't do anything, he just ran back and forth slowly on the field, but his physical strength, like a leaking balloon, quickly withered.

"Hold on! Yao Ming, you have to hold on!"

Yao Ming kept talking in his heart.

Ding Jian flew forward, knocked Yao Ming to the side, and then scored.

"hateful……"

Yao Ming felt insulted.

"Dayao, are you okay?"

Duguming already realized that it was Ding Jian who did it.

"No problem... I, whatever I say, I will hold on to this section!"

Yao Ming gritted his teeth and said, he looked at Van Gundy and told him with firm eyes that there was no need to change players!
"Yang Lu, double-team Ding Jian with me."

Du Guming also knew that with his own strength, it was impossible to compete against Ding Jian.

There is no shame in showing weakness, what is shameful is blind arrogance and hitting a stone with an egg.

Yang Lu nodded in agreement.

The two stood in front of Ding Jian.

"Do two people just want to guard me?"

Ding Jian showed a cruel smile. He rejected Bowen's call for the ball and began to dribble. The consecutive goals made his confidence swell to the extreme. He wanted one person to defeat the entire Rockets!
