Chapter 80 - System team
“Beep!”
With the referee’s whistle, Yao Ming returned the ball to the Rockets’ halftime, and the Rockets took the lead in launching the attack.
At the frontcourt, Blake still handed the ball to Yao Ming.
Although McGrady is out, the Rockets don’t seem to want to change their offensive tactics.
The Warriors Ellis contracted the doubles, Yao Ming gave the ball to Hyde as soon as possible.
Hyde broke the ball after taking three points.
“唰!”
Basketball crisply into the net.
The Rockets came first.
Cheers at Toyota Center.
The Warriors’ offense, seeing that the Rockets are still defending a 3-2 defense, Davis directly signaled the team to make a ball-free screen for Ellis.
Allis received the ball, stepped through Hyde and stepped into the paint.
From the opening two rounds, we can see that the tactical arrangement of the Warriors coach Nelson is also very targeted, that is, playing McGrady is not at this point.
Tangtian soon realized it, but he didn’t mean to make adjustments.
The Rockets’ offense, the same tactics, or Hyde received the ball, almost three-pointer shot, also scored!
There was cheering at the scene.
Aside from other abilities, Hyde is actually higher than McGrady in terms of three-point shooting.
This is why Tang Tian used him as a starter.
The Warriors’ offense, Ellis rushed to Hyde to score, but the speed of two points was a little bit behind that of three.
I waited until the Rockets bout, facing Hyde, who has already hit two 3-pointers, and Ellis dare not shrink any more.
Yao Ming saw that the Warriors did not assist, and turned around and hit Bidlins again.
Before Biedrins was hit by Yao Ming, he was afraid to reach out.
8 to 4, despite McGrady’s absence, the Rockets’ offense does not seem to have been affected much.
“I found out that the Rockets are playing the system, and it is Yao who maintains the operation of this system. The absence of T-mac may not really have that much impact.” Jackson said in surprise.
“Yes, under Tang Tian, this is a system team.” Miller said with a smile.
Jackson and Miller’s remarks are not false. The core of this hard-hitting game is Yao Ming and Millsap. The two outside lines have little influence on the opening.
And what I can feel is that the mentality of the entire Rockets team has changed qualitatively.
The ban on McGrady and Alstom damaged the Rockets’ strength, but the fair and just approach made the players more willing to do their best for the team.
Ellis is still hitting one point against Hyde, but the Warriors still don’t have much to do with the Rockets on the defensive end. After playing half of the first quarter, they still lag behind as in the first three games.
18 to 28, the only difference is that they score a lot more than before.
With more than 3 minutes left before the end of the first quarter, both sides began to replace one after another.
“Now is the time to really test the Rockets. At this time, the team relied on T-mac to lead the team. Now not only is T-mac missing, but Alstom is not there. This is also the best for the Warriors. Chase points, “Miller quickly analyzed.
Miller’s analysis was in place, but he looked at it and found that the court was wrong. The Rockets exchanged it until the first quarter was finished. Both Millsap and Blake in the starting game remained on the field. The two guys directly filled the first quarter!
Millsap was on the court, the Rockets still have a strong point inside, plus Blake outside the line, at the end of the first quarter, the Rockets still led the Warriors 10 points by 34-24!
This is the adjustment made by Tang Tian.
Is simple but effective.
When Yao Ming was on the scene, Millsap and Blake were both engineer-type soldiers, and their physical exertion was not large. It was no problem to play these three minutes.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Tang Tian directly moved Yao Ming up.
With this look, the inside face of the Warriors is extremely ugly.
This is like a pair of kings fried in the hands of the landlord. In order to get more single cards, they are played in turn, and the opponent is a bit desperate.
When Yao Ming was on the court, the other four positions of the Rockets were all substitutes, but around Yao Ming, as long as the other four people do a good job of passing and shooting two points, the team’s system is still there.
The Warriors took advantage of this time the Rockets defense weakened a lot, but Yao Ming’s scoring in the interior did not decrease, the difference between the two sides has been maintained.
Bright people can see that the absence of McGrady and Alstom has greatly affected the rotation of the Rockets, but Tang Tian with excellent adjustment capabilities to minimize this effect.
“This game is very smart, but it is a great test of the Rockets players’ physical strength. If the Warriors drag the game into the fourth quarter, the Rockets will definitely be in trouble.” Miller analyzed before the end of the midfield.
Miller’s worry is indeed the biggest disadvantage of this style of play, but as soon as the second half returns, the Rockets start a wave again, pulling the difference from 10 points to about 20 points.
And this is not the end, as soon as UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com opened in the fourth quarter, Tang Tian threw the main force all over the field, and then continued to open the difference to 25 points, the game was announced in advance.
Actually, because of the extra garbage time in half a quarter, there is actually not much time to go through the playing time of the Rockets’ main force.
Looking at the performance of the bench players from both sides on the court in the last quarter, Miller only had a bitter smile and shook his head.
This Tang Tian really refreshed his understanding of the basketball game again and again.
In the end, despite McGrady and Alstom both missing, the Rockets won the Warriors 116-96, winning the fifth game of the two series.
After winning this game, they also successfully eliminated the Warriors 4-1 and advanced to the Western Conference finals.
This is also the first time in ten years for the Rockets.
When the final whistle sounded, the sky burst with colorful ribbons, and Houston fans were caught in a carnival.
“You are an incredible opponent.” When the two teams finally shook hands, Nelson looked at Tang Tian and said heartily.
Old Nelson is the coach with the most wins in the NBA currently, and his affirmation is an honor for any coach.
“You are also a great opponent.” Tang Tian said with a smile.
Old Nelson smiled and wished Tang Tian good luck, then turned and left.
At that moment, Tang Tian noticed that he was looking at himself.
He turned to look and found out that it was Petrus of the Warriors.
Pietrus saw Tang Tian find himself, smiled, then turned and left with his teammates.
Tangtian didn’t know what this meant, but he didn’t wait for him to think about it, the team members started to celebrate around him.
