All-Around Forward Swingman

Even though the players struggled to pass the ball, more importantly, offensively, they didn't fall behind thanks to Tim Duncan!

At the end of the halftime game, the Rockets only led the Spurs by 3 points at 58:55.

After the third quarter, Yang Shan sat on the bench as usual.

The lineup on the field is Chris Duhon, Nick Young, James Posey, David Lee and Yao Ming.

As for the Spurs, they are still in the starting lineup. Although the three of Duncan did not rest for 24 minutes in the first half, they had a good rest for 15 minutes at halftime. 670, plus Mike Finley, the only one with physical problems, has already rested a section.

Parker and Batum are both young people. As for Duncan, he is a bit older, but there is no sign of fatigue on his face. After all, in many cases, it is normal for players to play more than 40 minutes per game, and this is not considered a squeeze on them.

Although Yang Shan did not play, the Rockets' firepower was not much weaker. It is mainly on the two points of David Lee and Yao Ming in the interior.

Before Yao Ming came back, Jr. Jordan and David Lee partnered, and the main scoring point was David Lee (acfh), but now Yao Ming is back. The Rockets have two reliable scoring points inside. No matter how good Duncan is, he can only limit one person.

However, the inside twin towers of Yao Ming and David Lee did not completely open the score. In the end, the two sides entered the fourth quarter with a difference of 83:76, 6 points.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Popovich finally allowed Duncan and Paco Batum to rest.

For the Rockets, Yang Shan, Nick Young, Stevenson, Battier, and Ibaka played. Seeing this lineup, Popovich couldn't help but frown. This can be regarded as the Rockets' small lineup of death this season.

This lineup does not play a fast break, but four players defend, Yang Shan attacks alone, relying on Yang Shan's breakthrough ability and post-up singles to attract double-teams, and then pass the ball to the outside, giving players a chance to shoot 3 points .

The Rockets' five players can all shoot 3-pointers, and even the power forward's 3-point shooting percentage this season has actually reached 40%.

With this lineup, the Spurs were completely powerless.

In this lineup, Yang Shan can play as he wants, attack if he wants to attack by himself, pass the ball if he wants to pass, it can be said that he can do whatever he wants!

Although the Spurs played Manu Ginobili, neither Stevenson nor Battier can restrict him very well!

In just 3 minutes, Yang Shan led 4 people to play a wave, scoring 11:3.

Popovich had no choice but to change to the starting lineup, and the Rockets also made adjustments and put on their own starting lineup.

With 8 minutes left in the game, the team leads by 13 points. Chris Duhon has begun to consciously control the rhythm of the field, try to cooperate as much as possible, and avoid direct shots.

The score of 13 points in 8 minutes is not difficult for many teams, but it is not the case for the Spurs. Because their team doesn't have many 3-point shooters, not to mention how many people can match the 3-point shooter, Yang Shan of the Rockets?

In the end, under the control of Chris Duhon, the Rockets and the Spurs played a positional battle. Although the Spurs' success rate was not low, the Rockets' shooting rate was not bad.

In the end, the game came to an end, with more than 1 minute left. . .
