Legendary basketball manager

Such an important game, CCTV will naturally not miss it.

"Hello viewers, welcome to watch the broadcast of NBA games brought to you by cctv-5."

"I'm Yu Jia!"

"I'm Yang Yi."

In the broadcast room, two commentators started.

This is already the third group of guests that CCTV has sent to the beautiful country for commentary!

It is precisely because of Shen Fei, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Jeremy Lin and others that the popularity of nba in China has reached an unprecedented height.

Today's game is very important. Almost all domestic families who have the conditions are in front of the TV.

Some Rockets fans even asked for leave to cheer for the Rockets at home!

"Today I bring you the focus of the game - the Houston Rockets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder!"

"Director Yang, can you briefly analyze this game for us?"

Yu Jia asked.

"Okay. Everyone must have known about the previous game. The Rockets, who were widely optimistic, turned their backs in the home gutter."

"And the strong potential shown by the Thunder has also allowed many fans to see their hope of winning the series in an upset."

"It can be said that after the last game, the suspense of this series has been completely ignited!"

Yang Yi analyzed with a smile.

"Then do you think the two teams currently have the advantage?"

Yu Jia continued to ask.

"If you want me to say, the Rockets are more dominant."

"After all, judging from the lineup configuration, the Rockets' bench depth is stronger."

Yang Yi replied.

"Director Yang, from what you mean, do you think the Rockets' starting lineup is actually not dominant?"

Yu Jia was a little puzzled.

"Yes, I think from the perspective of the starting lineup alone, the talent of the Thunder is not inferior to that of the Rockets."

"Curry, George, and Griffin are all very young players, but the real advantage of the Rockets is actually the Yao-Mike combination."

"But the talents of Durant, Westbrook, and Harden can largely make up for the gap in experience, which is why they won the last game."

"I am now more optimistic about returning to the home court, and the Thunder, with the right time and place, can make another victory!"

Yang Yi said solemnly.

Yu Jia was stunned to listen.

He never thought that his partner would make such a conclusion.

Not to mention the horror record of the Rockets in the regular season, it is enough to prove their strength.

Just talking about the Chinese background of the Rockets, it seems a bit strange for Yang Yi to support the Thunder at this juncture.

"I know that when this passage is broadcast live, there will definitely be criticism of me on the Internet, but I think that as a commentator, I stand from a neutral perspective when explaining the game."

"The analysis of the strength of both sides is my true thought."

Yang Yi added.

Yu Jia understood immediately after hearing this explanation.

Yang Yi's words are brilliant!

In this much-anticipated game, the words are not amazing and endless, and they will definitely get super high traffic.

Even if it is infamy, it is still a name!

Of course, Yu Jia would not expose Yang Yi's thoughts, but followed the latter's words and continued to ask: "Then Director Yang, what do you think the Rockets should do to win the game?"

"Catch the thief first, and the Rockets must limit Durant, Westbrook and Harden."

"In fact, the Rockets have a lot of defensive resources, such as George on the first defense, Danny Green on the bench, and Tucker all have strong defensive capabilities."

"But judging from the first two games, they couldn't defend Durant. In fact, Tony Allen is the most suitable to defend Durant. His aggressive defense is the one who can really affect Durant's offensive rhythm. Unfortunately, he hurt."

Yang Yi continued to analyze.

"That is to say, George and others have to play the defensive aggressiveness of Tony Allen in order to limit Durant and help the Rockets win?"

Yu Jiadao.

"Yes, but the defensive style is difficult to adjust in a short period of time. George and Green are both skilled defenders. Tucker's aggressiveness is good, but the defensive awareness is not enough. This is why I am not optimistic about the Rockets. .”

Yang Yi is very confident in his analysis.

"Okay, then let's see if anyone from the Rockets can stand up and guard Durant."

"Now the game is about to start, let us wait and see together"

After all, Yu Jia waved his hand, the screen changed, and he came to the stands of the Chesapeake Energy Arena.

The Energy Arena was packed today.

Before the game officially started, Thunder fans had already begun to make deafening noises.

"let's.go.okc!!!"

"let's.go.okc!!!"

"let's.go.okc!!!"

......

The voices of the fans were full of excitement.

Since the start of the playoffs, the Thunder has been underestimated.

Playing against the Spurs in the first round, almost all ball commentators believed that the old-fashioned Spurs would have the last laugh.

As a result, the young Thunder showed an indomitable momentum and successfully overturned Big Brother to the ground.

For the Rockets in the second round, the public opinion before the game was even more one-sided.

After the first game was played and the Rockets won by a big score, even the Thunder fans didn't have any hope for this round of the series.

They just want to see San Shao grow rapidly in the game and lay a solid foundation for future victories.

But the second game gave Thunder fans a big surprise.

"Hey guy, we even won the Rockets?!"

This is the first reaction of most fans after watching the game.

With this victory, the Thunder, from the players to the fans, have the confidence to win.

For example, the Thunder officially sent a tweet before the game: "There must be a team that will win, why can't this person be us?"

This tweet not only received many likes, but was also forwarded by the Thunder players headed by Durant.

On the other hand, the Rockets have kept a low profile.

Faced with doubts on the Internet, the players did not respond on any social platforms.

Before the game, a good reporter also specifically found McGrady and asked him about these doubts.

t-mac smiled and said that he would only respond on the court.

It is worth mentioning that Shen Fei specially took a special plane from Houston to watch the match today.

Sun Yue was also with him.

The two were sitting together in a box on the stand at the moment, quietly waiting for the start of the game.

"I thought the atmosphere at the Toyota Center was good enough. Only when I arrived at the Thunder today did I know what a 'devil' home court is."

Sun Yue looked around at the crazed Thunder fans and said with a sigh.

"When the 'China Times' is completed, we can also have such an atmosphere at home."

Shen Fei said lightly.

The Rockets' new arena focuses on better technology, a better viewing experience, and better marketing methods.

Shen Fei believes that this new arena will become an epoch-making arena!

Sun Yue nodded upon hearing this.

He doesn't know anything about the arena, but Shen Fei's words have a magical power that makes people want to believe.

Then, the two set their sights on the court.

At this time, the starters of both sides are doing their final warm-up training.

Durant hit consecutive three-pointers from the outside, and Westbrook showed off his tomahawk dunk.

On the Rockets side, Curry tried a super long three-pointer in the logo area.

However, he took three shots in a row, and the ball either hit the iron and missed it, or he didn't touch it at all, feeling very cold.

"Look at this posture, the thunder is coming menacingly..."

Sun Yue said with worry.

"It's okay, this game is stable."

As Shen Fei spoke, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

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

Five minutes later, the starters of the two teams walked to the center of the field one after another.

In this game, both sides maintained the same starting lineup as in the previous game.

Rockets here: Curry, McGrady, George, Griffin, Yao Ming.

Thunder side: Westbrook, Sefolosha, Durant, Ibaka, Perkins.

With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially begins!

Yao Ming struggled to take off and slapped the ball back to his own half.

The rocket strikes first!

Curry passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize.

For the first attack, the Rockets chose to play from the inside.

Curry lobs the ball to Yao Ming in the low post.

When Dayao received the ball, he immediately turned around and made a shooting motion.

Perkins jumps up.

I never thought that this was actually a shooting fake.

"Boom..."

Perkins hit Yao Ming directly.

"Beep!"

At the same time as the whistle sounded, Dayao completed his shot...

Go in!

"and. one!"

Yao Ming shouted excitedly.

The Energy Arena, which was originally noisy, was also temporarily quiet because of Dayao's performance, and then louder boos broke out.

"Beautiful! Yao Ming played the ball well!"

Yu Jia explained excitedly.

"Well... Let me just say, the combination of Yao and Mai is the real advantage of the Rockets."

Yang Yi added that the expression was not very natural.

Yao Ming faced the boos and made a steady hit with the extra penalty.

3:0, the Rockets took the lead.

Offensive and defensive transitions, Westbrook advances with the ball.

Just after halftime, he found Curry running towards Sefolosha, while Tracy McGrady was waiting for him not far away.

"Eh? The Rockets are not planning to defend against each other? McGrady defends against Westbrook, Curry defends Sefolosha, this switch is a bit surprising..."

Yu Jia said in surprise.

"This change of position is indeed something new, but how effective it is will only be known after the test of the game."

Yang Yi said lightly.

In fact, not only the two commentators were surprised, but Westbrook on the field was also a little surprised.

It’s okay to switch to a shooting guard to defend him, McGrady is still preparing to defend one step inward from the three-point line...

This made Westbrook feel a little disrespected!

[Prevent me from voting?OK! ]

With this in mind, Westbrook decisively collected the ball from outside the three-point line and shot...

"duang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced out.

Yao Ming relaxed his ape arm, received the rebound, and handed the ball to Curry.

Mengshen quickly advanced with the ball and led his teammates to launch a counterattack.

On the way, Sefolosha wanted to use a tactical foul to destroy the Rockets' fast break.

But the moment he pounced, Curry passed him clean with a light back dribble.

And rushing up to grab also means that the door behind Sefolosha is wide open.

Curry moved to two meters outside the three-point line and directly shot a three-pointer.

After the basketball left his fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

6:0, the Rockets made a fantastic start!

After the goal, McGrady was expressionless, without any celebration, and went straight back to his own half.

Thunder attack.

When Westbrook held the ball at the top of the arc, he was thrown again.

But the team got off to a bad start, and as confident as he was, he didn't dare to take a shot easily.

Ever since, Westbrook decided to use his best breakthrough to break the deadlock for the team.

McGrady gave him a distance of two steps, and he planned to ignore this distance with absolute explosive power and forcefully break through!

"Wow~"

Westbrook kicked his feet hard on the ground, and his whole body was like an arrow off the string, rushing towards the Rockets penalty area.

McGrady was well prepared, and blocked Westbrook with a lateral move.

The latter lowered his center of gravity and continued to speed up his breakthrough. When he came near the free throw line, he jumped with both feet, trying to make a "stealing chicken" layup.

But McGrady reacted quickly and jumped high beside him...

"Snapped!"

Westbrook's layup was nailed directly to the backboard by him!

Then, McGrady took off for the second time, protected the rebound, and then launched a counterattack again.

The generals of Thunder reacted quickly, and immediately retreated.

And McGrady took the ball directly to the Thunder's half court and met Durant's defense.

This is the first head-to-head match between the two aces tonight.

McGrady stepped out with his right foot and made two consecutive dribbles under the crotch.

In the second crotch, he increased his dribbling power with his right hand, allowing the ball to bounce high and hover over his left hand.

At this time, Durant's nerves were highly tense.

He has studied many videos of Tracy McGrady, so it is very clear that this is most likely the latter's starting move.

Sure enough, the next moment McGrady stepped forward with his left foot, and then his right hand gradually approached his left hand, and his eyes looked towards the basket.

[guessed! ]

Durant was overjoyed and immediately jumped to block the shot.

If McGrady can get rid of McGrady's dry pull in one-on-one defense, it will be a great boost to the morale of the entire Thunder team!

But when he jumped into the air, Durant suddenly found that McGrady didn't take off and shoot at all...

This turned out to be a fake act of "worshiping Buddha"!

After flying away from Durant, McGrady strode forward and went straight to the basket.

Ibaka's knees were slightly bent, and his eyes were fixed on Rocket One rushing towards him.

The Thunder fans at the scene also held their breath at the moment.

Everyone knows that a duel of talents is about to begin!

The two jumped almost at the same time.

The difference is that McGrady has the kinetic energy of sprinting, while Ibaka takes off on the spot.

Coupled with the fact that there is no difference in grade between the two in jumping ability, the result of this duel can be imagined...

McGrady took advantage of the wind, and he not only completed the dunk, but also knocked Ibaka out of the baseline.

"Roar!"

After completing the dunk, McGrady slammed his chest twice to vent out the emotions accumulated in the past two days.

8:0, as soon as the Rockets came up, they showed the momentum of the king!

On the sidelines, Thunder coach Brooks called out the first timeout less than 2 minutes after the start of the game.

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

"Director Yang, what do you think of the Rockets' opening performance? Do you want to change your pre-match judgment?"

Yu Jia looked at Yang Yi with a half-smile and asked.

"Hum..."

"I think the main problem with the Thunder is that since the start of the game, the offense has been played out of order."

"Westbrook took two shots, both of which were completed without cooperation, not even a pass."

"If they can adjust their style of play in time after the timeout is over and play at the level of the previous game, it is still unknown who will win this game."

Yang Yi said stubbornly.

"Okay, Director Yang still insists on his own ideas, so let's see if the Thunder can quickly adjust their status."

Yu Jia said with a smile.

Soon, the pause will end and the game will continue!
