Legendary basketball manager

Howard jumped high and easily won the jump ball with Jordan Hill.

Magic first strike!

Nelson held the ball across half court and organized an offense at the top of the arc.

Soon, he identified the biggest mismatch on the field.

The Rockets actually used Hill, who weighed 107kg, to fight against Howard, who weighed 120kg.

The weight difference of 26 catties creates a strong visual contrast.

It's not surprising that Hill was completely smaller in front of the monster, and was firmly stuck behind him.

Nelson hit the ground and passed the ball inside.

After Howard received the ball, just as he was about to launch an attack, he found a small guard shot out from the side - Kyle Lowry!

Mark Jackson's defensive strategy is very clear, that is to double-team Howard!

However, Master Huo has a lot of experience in dealing with flanking attacks. The moment he saw Lowry, he immediately collected the ball and raised it high, without giving the opponent a chance to steal it.

Immediately afterwards, he keenly discovered Nelson who was facing Lowry, waved his big hand, and passed the ball in the first place.

CCTV commentator Yu Jia couldn't help but praise after seeing this scene: "Great opportunity! Howard's vision is really broad."

But the next moment, a red figure suddenly appeared on the passing lane.

It was George!

I saw him strode forward, stretched out his long arms, and intercepted the ball in the air!

And, because Nelson is on the outermost edge of the Magic.

Being intercepted at this position means that the city gate is open.

After George controlled the ball, the front was unimpeded.

He immediately accelerated and rushed towards the Magic half court.

Behind him, Nelson and Carter are desperately catching up.

But in terms of speed, where are the two young George's opponents!

General Qiao rode Juechen, and when he came to the restricted area, he took a small step, and then took off with both feet...

After flying into the air, he slightly contracted his abdomen, and then began to rotate horizontally.

"BANG!"

360° turn and dunk!

In an instant, the entire Toyota Center Arena fell silent.

The fans watched blankly, not knowing how to react for a moment.

After a long time, as a few fans came to their senses first and exclaimed, the scene immediately burst into cheers one after another.

After finishing stunning, George was also very excited.

This is the first time in his career to play with an NBA-level team. The first goal was so wonderful, which virtually increased George's self-confidence.

He lifted his No. 24 jersey with both hands, and excitedly roared towards the stands: "Roar!!!"

On the other hand, Magic.

Seeing that the team was counterattacked because of his mistake, Howard quickly raised his right hand, smiled and signaled to his teammates: "This ball is my problem."

His smile is as warm as Lowry's, with a big-boy vibe.

"Howard's personality is definitely different among the super giants in the NBA."

"However, the mistake just now cannot be completely blamed on him."

"Let's take a look at the slow motion. When Lowry went to flank, George kept paying attention to Nelson from the corner of his eye."

"By the time Howard made a pass, he was already bent over and ready to intercept!"

"From this detail, we can see that the Rockets are fully prepared before the game."

Yang Yi's observations are meticulous.

............

At the same time, in the VIP box of the Toyota Center Arena, Shen Fei had a calm smile on his face, as if everything was under control.

It turned out that in the conversation with Mark Jackson yesterday, he not only talked about the transaction, but also conveyed to the other party the instructions to win every game in the preseason.

The reason is simple, Shen Fei hopes to welcome Yao Ming's return shortly after the start of the regular season.

And [Holy Light Healing], which can completely recover Dayao from his injuries, requires 100 reputation points, which means winning 10 games.

There are a total of eight games in the preseason, Shen Fei feels that this is definitely a good opportunity to earn reputation points!

After all, the preseason record is useless, many teams will not take victory too seriously, and the difficulty for the Rockets to win will be much lower than in the regular season.

Mark Jackson naturally would not evade such a challenge, but he also expressed his fear of the Magic.

The magic system is a typical "one-star four-shot".

Howard sits on the inside, not only to support the entire defensive system on the defensive end, but also to play one-on-one dominance on the offensive end.

In this way, the magic musketeers can fully unleash their firepower.

In the 08-09 season, the Magic relied on such a simple tactical system to reach the finals all the way.

But with Turkoglu gone and Howard plagued by injuries, their record slipped quickly.

This is also the reason why the Magic spent a high price to find Vince Carter, one of the former "four major shooting guards".

Although Carter's physical function has deteriorated a lot due to his age, he still averaged 16.6 points per game last season.

His presence, to a certain extent, made up for Turkoglu's vacancy.

Otherwise, with Howard's technology, it would be difficult to digest so many possessions.

At present, the Magic's system is complete, and the players have been running in for a long time, and their overall strength is far above the Rockets.

Mark - Jackson is not sure, can win this game.

Especially, with the daunting task of "making Jordan Hill play his worth".

After Shen Fei understood, he smiled nonchalantly, and said the method of "one star, four shots".

............

Look back to the field.

Nelson advanced the half court with the ball and reorganized the offense.

Howard is still in position at the basket.

This time, he was going to a deep position.

Nelson made a lob and passed the ball inside again.

After Howard received the ball, he immediately observed the Rockets' defensive position.

Strangely, no one came up to double-team this time.

Howard immediately decided to fight himself.

I saw him lowering his center of gravity and exerting force suddenly...

"Bang~"

Jordan Hill groaned and couldn't help but take a step back.

After Howard got the space, he immediately rose from the ground without making any adjustments.

This is one of his usual tricks - push the defender back, and then dunk the opponent.

Such a brutal offensive method can boost the morale of the team in a short period of time, and the effect is not only reflected in the two points on the book!

However...

When Howard soared into the sky, a figure appeared obliquely above him!

Griffin even took off early, waiting for the opponent's arrival in the air.

"Snapped!"

A block that blocked the sky and directly slapped Howard, who was unable to react in time, to the ground.

"woo..."

The fans at the scene were shocked for the second time within 1 minute.

And the degree of surprise this time is even worse than last time!
