Players from both teams will return to their respective benches to prepare for the game.

Francis gathered all the Rockets players.

Everyone formed a circle.

Francis said in a deep voice: "Guys! In today's game, we have to show the boss! We have not regressed! The Rockets are still a strong team to win the championship this season!"

"The best way to pay tribute to the boss is to use all your strength to defeat him!"

"1,2,3! Team Rocket!"

"fighting!"

"beep!"

The whistle blows and the game officially begins.

Dayao walked to the midfield circle and looked at each other with Rockets starting center Kevin Cato, who was competing for the jump ball with him.

After Dayao left, Kevin Cato returned to the starting position.

Moreover, Dazhi's offensive ability has been greatly improved.

Therefore, Kevin Cato's role in the interior becomes even more obvious.

He can protect Dazhi very well and do all the dirty work by himself.

The original Kenny Thomas began to lead the Knicks' bench to attack the city.

This is also the reason why the Rockets' inside strength did not drop much after Dayao left.

Dayao and Kevin Cato looked at each other and smiled at each other.

Then he stood in the midfield circle.

As the referee threw the basketball high.

The game officially begins.

Dayao stole the ball during a battle with Kevin Cato.

The basketball was put in the hands of Allen Iverson.

The Knicks start attacking.

After Allen Iverson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, he passed the basketball directly to Yao in the high post.

Dayao stood in a high position, facing Kevin Cato's defense, and directly chose to play from behind.

Once, twice, three times.

After pushing Kevin Cato away a little distance, he quickly turned around.

Hold the basketball high with both hands and lean back slightly.

Gently lift your right foot in front of you naturally.

Move your right hand gently.

"Whoa!"

Two points scored!

The familiar Golden Rooster is independent.

Even if Kevin Cato often trains against Da Zhi on weekdays, it would be difficult to prevent such a move.

Maybe on weekdays, when facing Kevin Cato's defense, Dazhi's shooting percentage of the Golden Rooster's independent action will be affected to a certain extent.

But Dayao won’t!

The reason is simple.

Dayao's height plus wingspan is much scarier than Da Zhi's height plus wingspan!

So when defending Dayao, Kevin Cato will find it more difficult.

Turning around, the Rockets attack.

Francis dribbled to the frontcourt and faced Allen Iverson's defense.

He smiled and said softly: "I am very lucky to be able to play with the boss."

Allen Iverson was stunned for a moment after hearing Francis's words.

Then he nodded thoughtfully and said with a serious expression: "That's right."

Allen Iverson still believes that coming to the Knicks with Han Ning was the best decision he made in his career.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Allen Iverson saw Francis speeding past him.

He turned around quickly and chased after him.

However, Francis was not slow either and directly threw Allen Iverson away.

Then he went straight to the basket, and with the cover of Da Zhi and Kevin Cato, he rushed into the basket.

Then a difficult pull-up layup.

"Whoa!"

Scored two points.

When Allen Iverson came to the frontcourt with the ball, he stared at Francis with a very unhappy expression.

He said in a deep voice: "Are you planning a sneak attack?! It's immoral!"

Francis laughed when he heard this and said softly: "You have been following the boss for so long, you don't know what it means to be brave and deceitful, right?!"

"Alan, you should buy two books on The Art of War and take a look. They are very useful."

After hearing this, Allen Iverson lost his temper.

After all, if the ball goes in, it goes in.

At most, I can only blame myself for not being focused enough just now.

However, he must get this ball back!

Dribble the ball left and right with both hands in front of you.

Suddenly he started to speed and rushed to the right.

Francis hurriedly followed up and defended himself.

But in the next second, Allen Iverson made a huge crossover and pulled the basketball from his right hand back to his left hand.

Then he launched a sprint directly from the left.

Francis's reaction was dissatisfied.

Now Allen Iverson, after coming to the Knicks, trains extra hard!

Not to mention anything else, it’s daily duels and extra practice with Sun Yue.

All of which allowed his strength to grow a lot.

This was the first time Francis played against Allen Iverson after he came to the Knicks.

So my impression of Allen Iverson still remains from last season.

Even though he was not mentally prepared, he was easily passed by Allen Iverson.

He rushed all the way to the basket and scored an easy layup with the help of Dayao and Kurt Thomas.

It can also be seen from here that there is still a certain gap in the internal strength of the two teams.

At least Allen Iverson doesn't have to perform a difficult pull-up layup, and can complete the score with an ordinary layup.

The two teams started to attack.

For this game, Han Ning did not arrange any special tactics for the Knicks.

In his opinion, these Rockets players were once his comrades-in-arms.

Even though he has cheated a lot in the past......

However, my heart is still very emotional.

Han Ning didn't want to use those messy tactics on them.

Besides, with the strength of the Knicks, if you want to win against the Rockets, you don't need to rely on those messy tactics.

Just go head-to-head.

As for why Han Ning is so confident......

The reason is also very simple!

From the moment he built the Knicks' lineup, the Rockets have been included among his imaginary enemies.

How to restrain the Rockets you created?!

I'm afraid no one in the entire alliance knows this better than Han Ninggang!
