NBA: Being criticized for half a year at the beginning

The Rockets took the lead in the fourth quarter. Curry's running was very active. He slipped to the baseline continuously to get rid of Parker's defense. Finally, he came out and played a pick-and-roll with Yi Jianlian. The two separated instantly.

The Spurs' defense immediately had loopholes. Bonner and Parker both rushed to Curry, who was more threatening.

Harden, however, lobbed the ball into the paint area of ​​the Spurs. Yi Jianlian dunked with both hands!

After landing, Yi Jianlian, who has a human character, also roared to encourage his teammates!

The Spurs continued to attack the Rockets with their inside offense.

Duncan got the ball in the low post on the left inside line. Harden immediately stepped forward to harass and double-team. After Duncan passed the ball, the Rockets' defense quickly rotated, and all the Rockets players were actively helping to defend.

The Spurs could not find any chance to shoot. Jefferson forced a shot against Carter at the last moment and missed. Duncan's tip-in also missed the basket. Yi Jianlian tried his best to protect the defensive rebound.

The Spurs retreated very quickly. Except for Duncan, everyone else had returned to their own half. After Curry pushed through the half court, he looked up at the basket and immediately asked Parker to press on.

Curry bowed and changed direction to break through Parker, and then raised his hand and shot directly from one meter away from the three-point line.

The speed of the ‘primary school student’ shot was very fast. George Hill, who rushed to defend, was a step slower and could only watch Curry’s arrow shoot into his own basket.

‘Swish! ’

After Curry hit a steady three-pointer, the score difference was narrowed to 8 points. Curry turned around and immediately made his classic celebration action, biting his braces and shaking his shoulders.

‘Beep’, Spurs coach Popovich immediately called a timeout.

The Spurs had no choice but to replace Bonner with Ginobili, and also started to play one big and four small to adapt to the Rockets’ offensive rhythm.

This is a method that the Spurs are not good at. Zhuge Vic has been led by Tang Yu tactically.

After the timeout, the Spurs abandoned their original inside advantage on the offensive end, and both the offense and defense of the Spurs' offense came to a standstill.

After playing for another three minutes, the Rockets took advantage of the Spurs' unfamiliarity with the tactics and hit the opponent with a small climax. After a climax of 11-3, the Rockets opened the score to 13 points.

Popovich called another timeout. Although he was angry, he was more helpless. He replaced McDyess to make up for the loss, but it was too late.

The Rockets quickly replaced Yao Ming, who was full of energy, and sent the last blow to the Spurs inside.

Small hook shots under the basket, backward jump shots, and dream steps were staged one after another!

3 minutes and 32 seconds in the fourth quarter, the score came to 90-107. The Spurs were 17 points behind at home. Popovich replaced all the main players and admitted defeat!

Tang Yu also replaced the main players when he saw this. The garbage time ended quickly. In the end, the Rockets pulled out the spurs away from home with 115-99!

Leading the opponent by a big score of 3-0!

After the game, Popovich took the initiative to shake hands with Tang Yu and praised his tactics.

"It seems that your team is about to change the league pattern. This is the beginning of an era. It seems that I have to rethink the construction of the team."

"Oh my God, Greg, this is the greatest affirmation I have ever heard of me! I think you will find a way. You are the omnipotent coach."

The Rockets players, who were already leading by a large score and about to complete the sweep, did not show their happiness in the locker room. Everyone was just silently tidying up their equipment and then listening to Stevens' post-game review.

Tang Yu was very satisfied with the current state of the players. Everyone was holding back.

Two days later, in G4, Tang Yu's team won the game again at the Spurs' home court by relying on the players' strong performance in the fourth quarter.

113-107, the Rockets narrowly defeated the Spurs away from home, sweeping the Spurs 4-0. Tang Yu is fulfilling his bold words, first of all, he easily defeated the Spurs 4-0.

After the entire series, Popovich, as the top coach in the league, praised Tang Yu in front of the media. He believed that the Rockets were the hottest team to win the championship this season.

Tang Yu could only swallow the old man's poisonous milk silently, and at the same time complimented the Spurs for causing some minor troubles to the Rockets.

After the series with the Spurs, Tang Yu's team returned to Houston. Next, they had to wait for the fourth-placed Suns in the West and the fifth-placed Nuggets in the West to decide the winner.

The Suns and Nuggets tied 2-2 in the first four games. Both sides won a victory at each other's home court, and they were evenly matched.

The other two duels in the lower half of the West are currently tied 2-2. It seems that the Wild West is worthy of its reputation.

After the second-placed Lakers in the West defeated the Trail Blazers twice at home, they also lost to the opponent in the Rose Garden Arena and were tied by the opponent in two games.

The same situation is also the Dallas Mavericks. Like the Lakers, they won two games first and then suffered a losing streak on the road.

The situation in the East is not good except for the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee BucksExcept for the first four draws, the rest of the games are quite clear.

The Eastern Conference champion Cleveland Cavaliers lead the Chicago Bulls led by Rose 3-1 after four games.

As the youngest MVP winner, Rose did not take any advantage in the duel with the "Little Emperor" James.

The Boston Celtics, relying on the strong performance of the Big Three, also got the 3-1 match point. Wade's Miami Heat is already in danger.

The Orlando Magic, led by Howard, lead the Charlotte Bobcats 3-0. The defensive system of the Warcraft completely collapsed the Bobcats' inside line. They are likely to sweep the Bobcats and advance to the second round of the Eastern Conference.

The other teams in the playoffs are fighting fiercely, but Tang Yu is free. He gave the players two days off before starting training again.

However, the current training volume has been greatly reduced, and the main training is to restore the body to maintain a good competitive state.

The players rested, but Tang Yu did not rest. The team's staff responsible for data collation handed him a set of Rockets player data for the first round of the playoffs.

Stephen Curry performed well in the four playoff games, averaging 26.5 points per game, the highest in the team. In addition, Curry also had 3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals.

The best performance of the team was still James Harden. Beard Deng strategized in the playoffs, and his average double-double data was the rocket's booster.

He averaged 13.5 shots per game, hitting 7 balls, scoring 15 points, 6.5 rebounds, 11.9 assists and 1 steal.

In addition to the need to strengthen Harden's enthusiasm on the defensive end, Harden's offensive end is impeccable.

Yao Ming still played a health-preserving style in the game against the Spurs, because the Spurs did not cause much trouble to the Rockets.

However, Yao Ming can get 10.9 points and 8 rebounds in 22 minutes per game. His efficiency is very high. Almost every shot on the court can bring a blow to the opponent.

In addition, Carter can get 12.5 points per game, Yi Jianlian 8.9 points, and Ibaka 9.5 points and 9 rebounds are close to averaging a double-double.

Jordan can contribute 6 points and 12.5 rebounds per game, of which he can also get 4 offensive rebounds per game. This is where Jordan shows his value.

Tang Yu is very pleased to see that every Rockets player on the court can contribute to the team. His team is moving in the right direction!
