Thomas also agreed with him: "Jermaine is right, this is indeed a good idea!"

Yao Ming performed well after playing in the first quarter, but Thomas was keen to find a problem with him: the low-post singles that this guy has been using in the first two games are gone!

It can even be seen that he refused to engage in physical confrontation with O'Neal, and it was obvious that this guy was not confident about his ability to confront.

O'Neal Jr. got angry, Thomas agreed that the Pacers' defensive strategy in the second quarter was decided, and the others were keeping a close eye on their own and tried to push the ball into Yao Ming's hand.

In order to better implement the man-to-man defense, Thomas also switched the defense in the second and third positions, allowing Reggie Miller to follow Jim Jackson to make trouble and let Artest fight against Mobri.

The effect of this series of defensive formation changes was soon revealed...

Under Artest's entanglement, Mobri's chances of receiving the ball were greatly reduced. Even after getting the ball, under Artest's constant pressure, he quickly handed the ball out again, and could not provide firepower on the offensive end; Jim Jackson's running was no longer so calm, Reggie Miller was too proficient in running without the ball. As soon as he stuck out his butt, the latter knew what he was pulling;

The two guns on the outside were restricted by individual soldiers...

The Pacers’ personal defensive abilities!

"It's so fucking good!" Thibodeau muttered.

The pressure of the offensive suddenly focused on Francis, and Tom had no choice but to put Yao Ming on the court early again.

Unfortunately, in the first round, Yao Ming's high-level support failed to quickly revitalize the team. The Pacers' purpose after they came on the court was too clear, which was to defend their own goals in person, which made Yao Ming's support very difficult!

I hesitated to pass the ball several times because it was really not a good opportunity.

"Softie, don't hesitate, the time is coming soon!"

The little O'Neal, who was carrying him behind him, spoke sarcastic again at this time.

"What you can do now is to single me!"

"Of course you can also pass you back to your number one position. I won't be surprised by the choice of a soft guy like you!"

"Man, I have to admit that you are right. I can only play you alone now!"

Yao Ming first glanced at Francis, and watched him work hard to get rid of Tinsley's appearance. He knew that if he really passed the ball back at this time, he would have to vomit it. Now he had to stand up and share the pressure for others. Only when he succeeded in singles O'Neal and forced his opponent to double-team him, the pressure on the other people in the Rockets would be smaller.

In fact, Yao Ming is not afraid of playing O'Neal alone. Although his ability to fight is poor now, he has not yet been able to avoid O'Neal youngster. In some specific situations, he is still confident that he will play O'Neal alone.

Just like the current high...

After Yao Ming finished speaking, he turned the basket back into a face frame and signaled his teammates to help him open the singles space.

whispering sound!

O'Neal spat in his heart. He obviously looked down on Yao Ming's bluffing look. If this guy dares to play singles, he will have played singles long ago?

Still have to wait until now?

Anyway, he doesn't believe that Yao Ming can really play him alone!

Of course, if he doesn't believe it or not, his attention will be immediately concentrated. He is not a careless person, and he needs to do his best to fight against a rabbit!

After Yao Ming formed enough singles space, he dribbled towards O'Neal Jr. As soon as he took a step forward, O'Neal Jr. immediately came to look for physical confrontation, but Yao Ming's reaction was faster than him. While he came up, he moved towards O'Neal's left and tricked the latter into his left side, and then he turned back to the bottom corner and pulled away from O'Neal Jr. smoothly. After turning back and facing the frame again, he held the ball with both hands and made a stance to shoot. O'Neal Jr. reacted quickly and quickly followed, but Yao Ming's turn around was too large. He really didn't follow him at the first time. Yao Ming made a shooting posture, and he had to jump and pounce.

Yao Ming stopped his shooting at this time, and waited for O'Neal to fly over in front of him before completing it and then threw the ball out.

His entire shooting movement was not adjusted at all, as if the time in the island country movie stopped for a moment. He did not watch the second he was fixed, and the connection was very smooth from shooting to completely shooting the ball.

"Swish!"

The ball enters the frame, and the sound is crisp and pleasant.

Yao Ming turned his head and looked at O'Neal: "You can't be shaken by me so easily, I'm just starting!"

“…”

This time O'Neal couldn't speak.

He had just flew a little higher.

"This guy's footsteps are really good!"

Drexler said this to Bill Walton. He now probably understands why Bill Walton admires this Chinese rookie so much. It is indeed rare for insiders who can have such skillful footsteps in the rookie season.

Bill Walton smiled and said, "You will know if you look at it. This kid's steps are not just really good!"

"ball!"

It was the Pacers' turn to attack the offensive round. O'Neal, who had just been shaken away, just got stuck in the low post, so he reached out to ask for the ball, and then he made a mess at Yao Ming.

This guy is so hard!

Yao Ming resisted it twice, but in the end he couldn't stand it and was knocked away by this guy.

"Bang!"

O'Neal, who squeezed Yao Ming away, completed the buckle with one hand.

"Soft egg!"

Leaving two words, O'Neal, Jr., returned to defense with a cold turn. This round made him feel relieved a lot.

Yao Ming curled his lips. His current confrontation is indeed not as good as O'Neal Jr. He has to admit this, which is why he can only choose to play O'Neal Jr. under specific circumstances.

In this specific situation, it is not a single player at the low position. The space at the low position is too small, and the competition is a confrontation. However, in the high position, Yao Ming can make up for the shortcomings in confrontation through his steps.

Moreover, O'Neal Jr. is a typical "no four or five" player. He is not tall enough when he is on the fifth position. Even if he is on the fourth position, his movement ability is not excellent, so he can only say that he will not drag him down.

The ball just now explained this issue. If it was a good fourth position, Yao Ming's turn could actually keep up, but O'Neal Jr. needed to use a flying pounce to stop Yao Ming from shooting.

Therefore, Yao Ming continued to play singles with the ball at a high position.

This time, Yao Ming still moved to the left. O'Neal dared not not follow. If he didn't follow him and was stuck in the forward position by the latter, with his height, even if O'Neal fights against him, it would be difficult for him to effectively interfere with this guy.

But what Yao Ming wants is him and.

As long as he follows, he will fully control the rhythm!

Yao Ming turned around sharply, but this time he did not go to the bottom corner, but went straight to the bottom of the basket. He first made a fake move of tiptoeing. However, this time O'Neal Jr. held back and didn't jump up. Yao Ming didn't panic. He changed direction back and continued to make a fake move of layup. This time O'Neal Jr. couldn't hold it back. After jumping on the racket in Yao Ming's hand, Yao Ming took the ball back, waiting for O'Neal Jr. to fly out of the interference range, took a step forward with a non-axial foot, and dunked with one hand to complete the goal.

The whole movement was flowing, like a little swan dance.

"Oh yell!"

"Shanghai Tango!"

Norris on the sidelines once again became a "propaganda ambassador", shouting the name Yao Ming told him, and at the same time showed off his "graceful" dance posture.

The only difference is that he had a dance partner this time, and Morris Taylor followed him and danced on the sidelines.

“Wow!”

"Big Dream!"

"I seemed to see a big dream!"

Drexler could no longer hold it back, and he shouted excitedly. By this moment, his impression of Yao Ming had completely changed.

This kid will succeed in this league!

At the same time, he was silently convinced in his heart.
Chapter completed!
