Chapter 3: Peak Yao(1/2)

At this time, the Rockets scored 64-78, trailing the Lakers by 14 points.

But the Rockets fans were still cheering because their giant Yao Ming came on the court.

This is a Rockets hero! Well loved by Houstonians.

After a sudden injury in G1, after a one-minute break, he led the Rockets to win the first game against the Lakers.

Such a heroic act deeply moved all Rockets fans.

However, in the next two games, Yao Ming was injured several times. The injury to his left foot seemed serious, and fans began to worry again.

Everyone from the Rockets came on the field, and Wang Jiexi also sat back, crossed his legs on the sidelines, and looked at Yao Ming, who was truly at his peak, and started to perform.

Adelman looked at Wang Jiexi and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Wang, what's wrong with you? I have always arranged the team's tactics, your role is just to sit here, and this third quarter of the game is still

You let Yao play before it was over, and there was still such a long time, how could he persist until the end?"

Do you also know that Yao Ming can't last that long? Aren't you the one who kept nagging Yao Ming in the previous life?

Wang Jiexi glanced at Adelman and said, "You'll know if it's OK if you look down."

Adelman looked to the court, where Yao Ming was setting a pick-and-roll for Lowry at the top of the key.

It was Jordan Farmar who originally defended Lowry. Although he was also called Jordan, this Jordan was not the same as that Jordan. He was just a role player who dribbled the ball through half court and occasionally shot 3-pointers.

There was a sudden pick and roll, and Yao Ming, who was as tall as a mountain, blocked his view, and Lowry passed through from the other side.

"Defend!"

Farmar was out of sight and shouted quickly. Bynum, who was originally guarding Yao Ming, hesitated and took a step back to protect the basket.

As a result, Lowry split the ball and passed it to Yao Ming.

A big mistake!

Yao Ming, who is 2.26 meters tall and weighs 141kg, directly hits Jordan Farma, who is 1.88 meters tall and only weighs 82kg.

Jordan Farma looked confused and helpless when he saw that Yao Ming's big butt was almost touching his chest.

"Fake!"

Only a muffled groan was heard from Falma, and she was knocked away.

There was an open space directly in front of Yao Ming, and he easily turned around and made a mid-range shot, scoring 2 points.

The whole audience cheered instantly.

The iconic 20-foot precise jump shot is the move that Yao Ming is famous for.

Yao Ming felt that his whole body had become lighter, and his speed of returning to defense was much faster than usual.

When the four teammates returned to defense, they were very surprised to see Yao Ming, who had returned to his inside position early.

Is Yao Ming's foot okay?

Maybe it was because the Lakers had a 12-point lead, so their offense was a bit haphazard.

After the Lakers pulled away, the ball was passed to Kobe. After a fake move, Kobe directly hit Ron Artest with his back, bumped his back twice tentatively, turned around and shot a fadeaway jumper.

Beautiful! But the force was too weak and the basketball hit the front frame.

Is it true that ferric oxide has a well-deserved reputation?

Kobe didn't care, shook his head and returned to defense.

Yao Ming easily picked off the rebound and immediately passed it to Lowry.

Lowry originally wanted to launch a fast break, but found that the person defending him turned out to be Kobe!

In front of the league's most famous player, Kobe Bryant, Lowry didn't dare to be impulsive and just dribbled the ball steadily past half court.

At this time, Yao Ming trotted over and blocked the position according to the tactics.

Remembering Wang Jiexi's instructions just now, Lori immediately got through from the other side of Yao Ming's body.

Kobe had expected it and called out to Bynum: "You guard Yao Ming!"

With that said, Kobe bypassed Yao Ming and went after Lowry.

At this time, Lowry had Jordan Farmar in front of him and Kobe Bryant behind him. He suddenly saw Yao Ming running towards the basket and immediately passed the ball back.

Kobe stretched out his hand, failed to steal the ball, and saw the ball fly into Yao Ming's hands.

After Yao Ming caught the ball, he turned around under the basket, swayed past Bynum, and stood on tiptoes for a dunk.

The whole audience cheered again when they saw this wonderful goal.

Kobe frowned and faced Ron with a mid-range shot on the offensive end. The ball circled a few times in the basket and then fell out.

Obviously, at the beginning of this quarter, Kobe's touch was not very good.

In these two Lakers attacks, Bynum, the little shark inside, was completely blocked by Yao Ming and had no rebounds at all.

Whoosh!

It’s Yao Ming and Kyle Lowry’s connection again!

Lowry went straight to the basket this time, causing a foul on Gasol! 2+1!

In just 1 minute, the Rockets chased 7 points in a row!

The Zen master sat down and frowned, but still didn't move.

Not calling a timeout at critical moments and letting the stars figure it out on their own on the court is a characteristic of the Zen Master.

As a result, Yao Ming scored two more goals in a row, creating an 11:0 climax.

The Rockets players were so excited that they all came over to high-five Yao Ming!

"Yao, you are so awesome!"

Yao Ming was really awesome today.

The current score is 78:75, only 3 points away. Only a 3-pointer is needed to tie the score.

It was already the fourth quarter and there were 8 minutes left before the end of the game, and the Rockets could come back at any time.

At this time, Zen Master could not help but straighten his back and was about to call a timeout. But in the end he did not move because he saw Kobe shaking his head at him with a stern look in his eyes.

As long as Kobe wakes up, there is no need to worry about the game.

Just like he believed in Jordan during the Bulls days, he believed that Kobe could kill the game.

Sure enough, as the Zen master thought, in this offensive round, Kobe made a pull-up 3-pointer from the outside and scored.

The home Rockets fans instantly burst into loud boos!

Kobe didn't care, and slowly returned to defense.

He had experienced such boos countless times.

On Lowry's side, he connected with Yao Ming in a pick-and-roll.

After Yao Ming successfully blocked the ball, Lowry rushed inside, attracting the attention of Jordan Farmar and center Bynum. Yao Ming cut directly in and succeeded in an empty basket.

This combination only took a few seconds, and Yao Ming scored another 2 points.

Whoosh!

In!

Kobe faced the defender from the outside and hit another 3-pointer.

At 81:77, the Rockets trailed by 4 points, and the Lakers relied on Kobe Bryant's 3-pointer to stop the bleeding.

On the Lakers bench, Zen Master stood up at this time and shouted from the sidelines: "Falma, if you don't take it seriously, you will get off!"

In Zen Master's view, Farma's performance these past few times was simply a defensive black hole, and he was timid, which led to the Rockets chasing points. Although Bynum's performance was also a bit confusing, who said Farma had the lowest status.

If it doesn't work, let Kobe dribble the ball through halftime and replace Farma.

On the Rockets' side, Wang Jiexi's side was much more relaxed.

He didn't even stand up from the chair, he just crossed his legs and looked dazed.

The assistant coach Adelman next to him was already dumbfounded. Is this high pick-and-roll so effective?

He deeply doubted what he had done before. He had always thought that putting Yao Ming on the inside was the best.

But Wang Jiexi suddenly changed his formation and narrowed the score difference of more than ten points to 4 points.

Is this the real thing or just luck?

He took a deep look at Wang Jiexi, who was taking the matter indifferently, and suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.

Back on the court, Kobe scored against the defense again.

Your uncle is still your uncle. Even if Kobe Bryant is defended by three people, he can still put the ball into the basket beautifully.

But once he returned to the defense, Farmar didn't follow Lowry this time. As a result, Bynum was distracted and missed Yao Ming. Yao Ming cut straight inside and tiptoed into Gasol for a dunk.

This made Kobe so angry!

He was in a daze on the court. What was going on in Bynum's mind? Did he really want to play well?
