At 7:30 in the blink of an eye, the Golden No. 1 Center began to hold a championship ring award ceremony, and the audience stood up and watched.

According to Su Yang's arrangement, the media department invited the Kings' famous players from all generations to participate. Chris Auditorium and staff set out the three championship trophys that the Kings had won before. Unfortunately, the trophy for the 1950-1951 season has been lost, with only a slightly shabby flag, but it seems to have a long history and rich background.

Curry, Cousins ​​and others stood in the middle of the stadium, applauding and cheering around the championship trophy, while Su Yang, Xiao Hua, Sam Sinki, Chris Granger, and the four of them also stood next to the trophy, waiting for the announcer to introduce the celebrities of all generations and three champions.

After a passionate shout, Xiao Hua took over the topic, thanked and praised Su Yang, and then presented the ring to Sinki and Chris. Then Su Yang presented it to Sinki and Chris, followed by Curry, Cousins ​​and others, cheering one after another, and the atmosphere was full of excitement.

Finally, Su Yang picked up the microphone and made a speech. After a thank-you, the conversation changed: "I promise you that we will continue to move forward and will never win three times. Sacramento will become the No. 1 giant in the league. The one           only!"

The cheers exploded instantly, the lights were on throughout the audience, and the long whistle sounded. During the game preparation stage, Rocket players appeared one after another.

Su Yang put away his excitement, summoned the entire team to gather around him, and once again emphasized the strategies set out before the game, and must not be careless.

"The guys on the opposite side were swept 4-0 by us before. After a summer of running-in preparation, they definitely want to play back. They are still the kind of team that plays very well with the wind. They must maintain defensive intensity and offensive patience at the beginning..."

The Rockets' light bulb combination plays a very good match, especially Harden. As long as he feels good and has a decisive attitude, he will be really hard to get double-teams and single defenses, which will drive the Rockets' role players, and the three-point wiper is simply deadly.

"We should also pay attention to not letting them hit the inside line. We should use double-teaming strategies to target Harden and Paul..."

The sound of short whistle sounded while talking.

The starting position of the two teams.

On the Rockets, Paul, Harden, Ariza, Anderson, Capela.

On the King's side, Curry, Raven, Tatum, Antetokounmpo, and Cousins.

The announcer shouted for a jump ball, the referee threw it casually, the Rockets won the jump ball, and Paul slowly drove the ball forward.

The audience shouted in unison to defend, and the central large screen shot gave the Rockets' new boss Fertita.

The basketball was led by the center line, and Paul gave it to Harden on the right wing and used a cover. Harden took the ball and rushed to the top of the arc, and then used Capela to cover it. He twisted his hips and rushed into the penalty area. Cousins ​​did not rob the game at the first time, and the rhythm was behind, so he could only watch.

The basketball rebounded into the net, and Harden scored two points first.

Su Yang frowned and thought that he had just reminded him to double-team, but Cousins ​​still didn't keep up with the reaction. Of course, there was also the reason why Harden was too explosive. It was just such a simple continuous cover tactic, but Cousins ​​failed to discover and prepare in time.

What I want to frown even more is that Antetokounmpo did not shrink in advance in the bottom corner to prepare for defense, and watched Harden rush into the basket.

Perhaps guessing what Su Yang was thinking, Mike Brown smiled and said, "Don't be so strict, the first round of the first game..."

Su Yang smiled and nodded, and the offense and defense were converted on the field. He continued to cover the right side and started with the Rockets' signature, and the sign changed the defense unlimitedly.

After some trouble, there was no room for breakthrough, and Antetokounmpo saw Ariza shrinking back, so he simply jumped up and made a three-pointer.

The basketball slammed the iron, and the Rockets grabbed the rebound to counterattack. Paul and Capela were on the 45-degree pick-and-roll on the left. The Kings double-teamed according to Su Yang's arrangement. Capela hurriedly opened the ball and turned around and cut in. At the same time, Paul passed the ball to the basket. Seeing that Antetokounmpo was shrinking to assist in defense, he immediately raised his hand and threw the ball towards the bottom corner on the right. The rotation started simultaneously. The basketball passed the right wing again and finally returned to the top of the arc.

Harden took the ball and made a round to fill the position. Curry was crushed all the way to the top of the free throw coil, and he jumped out of the middle shot with a strong ball.

The basketball smashed the basket and flew out. Although he couldn't score, he really looked like Kobe who didn't withdraw and stopped mid-shot in the past. He just deliberately made contact with his body, and it seemed like he wanted to make a foul, but it affected his attack.

"When we choose players in the future, whether it is rookie or veteran, we must have a personality test link..."

Su Yang thought to himself that Harden, Westbrook and Durant both like to go to extremes. Harden is reflected in his ability to score normally, but often he insists on making fouls. Westbrook is reflected in his courage to admit his mistakes verbally but he is determined to change his actual actions. Durant is determined to be the leader of the league, but he just practices hard and is unwilling to strengthen his leadership shortcomings. He has ideas.

Between thinking, the two teams changed their offense and defense.

Lavine pushed the ball with the ball, and suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball at the top of the arc. Cousins ​​received the ball and rushed to the basket, misplaced against Anderson, causing a foul.

The referee blew the whistle and gave two free throws. Su Yang stood up and took the lead in cheering, hoping that Cousins ​​and the outside world would see their support for Cousins, and try to erase the impact of not renewing the contract in advance, and the same treatment will be given to LaVine later.

Cheers were heard in the stadium, and Cousins ​​made both free throws.

The Rockets attacked, and the five-for-one formation started, and the tactic was opened. Paul passed the ball to the right wing and used a cover. Then Harden rushed to the top of the arc with the ball, and then used Capela's cover to launch the attack. However, this time, Su Yang arranged a defense replacement in advance.

Cousins ​​went to defend against Anderson, who moved slowly, and Antetokounmpo turned to defend Capela, who often launched pick-and-roll, and the threat increased sharply.

The double team was sold out in an instant.

Harden subconsciously retreated and raised his hand, trying to pass the pass to dismantle Capela, but Antetokounmpo's eyes were quick and quick. He slapped the basketball with a slap, bent down and grabbed it in his hand, rushed to the center line two steps, and then passed the Raven on the left wing of the frontcourt. Unfortunately, the Rockets retreated very quickly.

As for the Rockets' momentum and execution, it is obvious that Harden has participated in the game that was swept 4-0 before.

However, if you are active, there is a problem with the Rockets' return route, and their attention is focused on the left and Tatum's large open space on the right.

Seeing this, Su Yang shouted and reminded him. Laven raised his hand and passed a long pass. Tatum took the ball and threw a three-pointer firmly, but he did not touch the ball.

"ha…"

Su Yang resisted the urge to laugh, and instead clapped and encouraged him, thinking that the young man could, and Mamba had learned the spirit.

The Rockets launched a counterattack. Paul controlled the ball 45 degrees, and changed hands behind his back with his crotch. His eyes were dripping from the half-court. He suddenly took advantage of the moment when Cousins ​​ran towards Anderson and blocked Curry. He jumped and scored a three-pointer.

The basketball hit the front basket with a slam, and the Kings got the rebound and pushed the counterattack. Antetokounmpo successfully attracted three players to join the basket, and instead threw the ball to the bottom corner on the left. Laven took the ball and made a three-pointer. The basketball was hollowed into the net, and the Kings started 5-2.

Cheers were everywhere in the stadium, and it had just turned into defensive shouts. Paul, who was standing in the center line, suddenly raised his hand and passed the left wing. Ariza happened to run out with Anderson's cover. The Kings considered that both of them could shoot three points, but they still used the switch to defend.

An open opportunity appeared, Ariza made a shot and shot, and three-pointers were hollowed into the net. The total attack took 8 seconds.

Seeing this, Su Yang shouted and reminded him to play one again. Cousins ​​immediately grabbed the serve at the bottom line. Antetokounmpo received the ball and went straight to the frontcourt. Before Harden could react, he quickly formed a double cover on the left wing. Lavin arrived to catch the ball, and it was too late for Harden to chase again.

Maybe in just one second, Harden was a little relaxed, but he had to pay the price. Lavender easily scored into the China League One.

Cheers in the stadium were heard again, and the Rockets also launched a fast break counterattack, but the hand-handed double-screen tactic was the beginning.

The Kings continued to double-team. Harden seemed to be ready, and pulled the ball first and retreated. At the moment Antetokounmpo retreated, he closed the ball again and withdrew three-pointers. The 'track' shout immediately sounded, but the three-pointer slammed the iron and the shout disappeared.

Su Yang suddenly thought of the Rockets' opening tactic. Nash will be brought to the Nets in the future. The key is that D'Antoni just used it casually, but Nash used it as a core tactic. He often saw that the Nets couldn't open, so Harden, Mills and Durant appeared, hand-handed and double-screened. It was funny enough to think about it. Nash had so many tactics, but he became Tyron Lue as a coach.

While thinking, Curry passed the ball to the frontcourt, Antetokounmpo took the ball and caused Paul to foul, and the referee gave two free throws.

On the espn live broadcast seat, Van Gundy sighed: "It's too fast, the Kings and the Rockets' offensive pace are too fast..."

Mark Jackson also sighed: "I haven't seen the effect of the Cavaliers' Big Four combination, but I want to say that whether the Rockets or the Kings enter the finals, the Cavaliers will be very difficult to play... Well, I admit that I am a LeBron fan, and the Cavaliers are scheduled for the Finals..."

Amid the cheers of the whole audience, Antetokounmpo made two free throws, and in two and a half minutes in the first quarter, the Kings temporarily led 9-5.

The game continued, and the two teams went back and forth, and the scoring efficiency decreased slightly. Su Yang was thinking about what to do if he was anxious. The referee suddenly blew the whistle and called Curry to block the foul. Curry had a foul before, and he had two fouls in total.

The stadium booed everywhere.

Su Yang shook his head slightly, quite unhappy, the referee blew a few times, turned his head and looked at Rose who was looking at him on the bench.

"Ross, it's time to show your true skills!"
