But now Szebiak has not developed his ability other than three-pointers. As soon as he rushed to the basket, he was given a shot by Yao Ming, who quickly made up for defense.

Karl Malone took the rebound and threw it directly into the Timberwolves' defense zone, where "Spider-Man" was about to go down.

After being integrated into the Rockets' lineup for so long, the "postman" has gradually realized that this moment is often a great time for the Rockets to launch a fast break!

However, Sprewell had no intention of giving up. Although he had been pulled away by Francis at least three positions at this time, he still strode towards Francis. He listened to the rapid footsteps behind him, and was about to show him, but he immediately gave up the plan and threw it quickly as soon as he got to the basket.

"Swish!"

The ball enters!

However, if you don’t dunk the fast break, it means you don’t have a fast break. When you return to defense, Francis looked "unpleasant"! He even had some annoyance.

This really makes people sigh again: This madman is a madman! He can actually scare "Spider-Man" so much that he doesn't dunk the fast break!

On the Timberwolves, Kassel was carrying the ball from the back line to the frontcourt with some embarrassment on his face. Lagabe's defense just now made him feel embarrassed. After so many years of debut, he made a newcomer defend like this. He must have been unable to hold on his face. He took the ball again and thought about having another one.

Of course, this is his current idea. When he passed halftime and Lagabel came into contact, he decisively gave up this idea.

There is no way, he was not a confrontational number one position, and now he is old, if he really fights like this, he is really not a match for Ragabel.

He threw the ball to the "madman".

The "madman" faced Francis with the ball, but he still relied on the "first step" to pass Francis. This was his reliance on this league for so many years, but what he didn't expect was that he didn't wait for him to lean towards Francis this time! Francis leaned towards him first.

Or did you send it to me?

Sprewell was stunned when he looked at Francis' defensive decision, but he also knew what "time was gone". He didn't dare to break through because Francis forced him up. On the contrary, he broke through more resolutely than usual!

But this time he just arrived at the basket, Kal Malone forced him over, holding up his hands, blocking his sight from above to behind him.

This is the experience of a veteran.

But is the "madman" a "madman"? Can a simple delay block him?

joke!

Do you want me to tell you the story of "Jordan won the best team after his first retirement"?

A fast moving right side moved horizontally, Sprewell "straightened" and made a way out.

Then, he raised the ball in his hand and sent it to the basket.

"Bang!"

But the moment his ball left his hand, there was a huge slap. A guy wearing Rockets No. 11 and as tall as a giant came out from the side and gave him a stern thug.

With this hat, the ball flew straight outside the three-point line. Unfortunately, the one who got the ball was the Timberwolves' "handsome guy" and was not a Rockets player. Otherwise, it would be another chance to get a fast break.

But the Timberwolves' crisis did not disappear. Szebiak is not a guy who can dribble. With Bathir's constant entanglement, he had to give the ball quickly and give it to Kassel, who was also entangled by Lagabele, and his whole face was drooping.

Like the "handsome guy", Kassel can only shoot the ball quickly.

Neither of these two guys waited for the Timberwolves to open the offensive formation before passing the ball, which also led to the Timberwolves' entire formation being very messy now, but the person who was receiving the ball is still the "sugar man"!

This guy usually likes to "do things randomly". At this moment, he saw that the entire Timberwolves' offensive end was in chaos. He didn't hesitate and took the ball and killed it at the basket.

He had actually seen Karl Malone and Yao Ming return to defense in place.

But what is there a saying?

Oh, by the way, wealth and honor are in danger!

This ball scored the "Five Best Goals". If this ball cannot be scored, well...it is probably also the "Five Best Goals"...

"Bang!"

The result is not as good as the "Sugar Man" thought.

After all, it is really a bit difficult for him to think about Karl Malone and Yao Ming’s defense.

The result was not that bad, the ball was not covered.

The arc of his attack was not outrageous.

It just hit the basket and stumbled out.

However, this time, Yao Ming steadily protected the rebound and did not give the Timberwolves any more chance.

"The Timberwolves have not scored in two rounds!"

Seeing that the timeout adjustment was over and the Rockets' immediate defensive effect was achieved, Tom said with satisfaction.

Of course, this is said to Thibodeau.

However, Thibodeau is not a guy who can be impressed with such a small result. He looked on the field and kept saying in his heart: It’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, it’s far from enough!

With his expectations for the Rockets and the boys and his confidence in his ability, he only defended the Timberwolves in two rounds, which obviously can only be regarded as an "appetizer"!

Well, he has forgotten what he was nervous just now.

The Rockets played a defensive counterattack, but the team cooperated. Francis gave the ball. After each Rockets player held the ball and turned it around, the ball returned to Francis' hands again.

Then Francis held the ball and killed in, attracting the Timberwolves to shrink their defense, and gave the ball to Yao Ming with a sudden score. Yao Ming quickly gave the ball to the outside line, and Lagabele simply hit a three-pointer!

The Timberwolves' concentration on the defensive end was obviously affected by the offensive end just now, and some chaos occurred. The Rockets' passing was not very smooth, but they easily collapsed the Timberwolves' defensive formation.

The Rockets scored a goal difference and even surpassed one point.

The Timberwolves fans who were quite happy just now came back can't say a word now, so they can only stare at the field blankly.

Is this "world" changing so fast?

All the Rockets teams used their successful defense to tell these guys: Where is this? It can be faster!

"Bang!"

It’s Yao Ming again, the person who got the hat this time was an “alien”.

Of course, Kassel found this ball himself. He was not the one who could make a layup and had not yet left Ragabe. In this case, he made up his mind to rush to the inside. Do you think Yao Ming can't cover it?

Kassel was so capped that he looked like a star.

The Rockets successfully defended another goal...

Before they knew it, the Rockets had already scored an 8-0 scoring climax.

"No, you can't fight like this!"

"The Rockets are obviously forcing us to fight in!"

This forced Sanders to call a pause.

Unfortunately, compared to the Rockets, the Timberwolves' adjustment is not so fast. A timeout did not change the situation on the court.

The Rockets, who had already started, rubbed the Timberwolves all the way to the end of the second quarter.

49 to 41!

The Rockets led by 8 points. If they added 6 points behind in the first quarter, in other words, in the second quarter, the Rockets completed a 14-point comeback.

This directly made the Timberwolves' home audience silent!

However, in this quarter, Sanders has now seen clearly the Rockets' idea of ​​changing formations at both ends of offense and defense.

Well, Yao Ming took three hats in less than 5 minutes. Anyone who is a head coach knows that this must be related to him. Look at the Rockets' outside line and fight closely. This is obviously forcing the Timberwolves to break through and prevent them from shooting!

However, after watching the Rockets' defensive effect in the second quarter... If Sanders had a defender like Yao Ming in the interior, he would have adopted such a defensive strategy without hesitation.

This effect is really great!

Huh?

No!

I seem to have it!

Kevin Garnett, only talking about the ability to defend, does this league have a better inside line than him?

Sanders originally frowned because the Timberwolves continued to miss the attack in the Rockets' defense.

When he returned to the locker room, the first thing he thought about was how to open the situation on the offensive end...

But as he thought about it, he suddenly realized that the other party could be so guarded by us, why can't we be so guarded by them!

He immediately stopped worrying about changing the formation on the offensive end, but instead devoted more energy to adjusting the defensive formation - forcing the Rockets to break through from the outside and let Kevin Garnett make up for defense.

To put it bluntly, how can the Rockets guard against us, and how can we guard against them!

Anyway, we have good inside defense players!

Not to mention, at the beginning of the third quarter, Francis really didn't react at the first time. When he plunged into the Timberwolves' defense zone and found that Kevin Garnett had come to make up for defense at the first time, he discovered that the Timberwolves had also started to play their defensive routines.

He quickly dribbled the ball and returned to the outside line.

Learn from us!

Ho~

Tom and Thibodeau also saw it. They looked at each other and smiled, then Tom signaled to Frances.

"Spider-Man" nodded, he did not continue his attack, and he gave the ball to Yao Ming.

Yao Ming faces Kevin Garnett with the ball...

Uh ~
To be continued...
