The Godfather of Basketball

The Hornets' offense, Paul once again staged a wonderful score, facing Yao Ming's emergency stop mid-range hit again.

But looking back, it was still Tracy McGrady. He turned and leaned back beautifully. Peterson had time to turn around before he could take off.

"Pay attention to double-teams! Pay attention to double-teams!" Hornets coach Scott shouted from the sidelines at this time.

Paul still looks unstoppable, but Peterson can't stop McGrady at all!

In the Hornets' offense, Paul continued to change direction and made an emergency stop after breaking through.

This time the basketball didn't make any more shots, and the rebound was missed by Yao Ming.

Billups advanced the ball to the frontcourt and handed the ball to McGrady.

The Hornets chose to double-team at this time, and Peja came from the weak side to help defend.

McGrady faces the basket and lifts the ball high.

As soon as Peja's double-team was in place, he directly stuffed the ball in.

At this moment, Pietrus had already made an empty cut from the three-point line, and the ball was directly stuffed into his hand.

It was at this time that everyone realized that Yao Ming had pulled Chandler to the other side of the basket.

This is what the Rockets are waiting for!

West at the free throw line shrunk in quickly, his feet moved well, and he got to the basket before Pietrus made a layup.

Although defense is not his strong point, if Pietrus wants to be stronger, he still has the confidence to stop the ball. Even if he can't stop it, he can send the opponent to the free throw line.

But just as he was putting on a defensive stance, Pietrus suddenly flicked the ball to the left, and hit the ball directly to the middle.

Millsap followed up and jumped straight up after getting the ball.

West didn't react yet.

"boom!"

Millsap was powerful and slammed the ball into the basket directly across West's side.

The scene exploded instantly!

The emotions of the fans were already extremely high, and this deduction simply added fuel to the fire!

Scott stayed where he was now.

He was played by Tang Tian severely!

But it seems that this is simply out of his choice!

The Hornets' offense, Paul's personal offense caused Pietrus' thug foul, went to the free throw line and made two free throws, continuing to increase points for the Hornets.

But looking back, the Rockets still started to attack from McGrady, and the Hornets still chose to double-team, but West did not retreat. As a result, Pietrus, the new dunk leader, and the basket were an open field.

1 to 0, Pietrus took the ball and made a dunk, showing off his physical fitness.

The fans at the scene cheered endlessly, but the two commentators looked at each other in blank dismay.

After these few rounds, Yao Ming has completely disappeared, but the Rockets' offensive efficiency has doubled several times compared to the previous game!

It's incredible!

Although Paul has been scoring for the Hornets, the Rockets' offensive is obviously more turbulent. After more than half a quarter of the game, the Rockets scored 22 points! The Hornets only relied on Paul to score 12 points!

The point difference has reached double digits.

"This is not the way. If the rest of the Hornets can't stand up and share the pressure for CP3, they won't be able to win." Brin said after watching it.

The Hornets played well in the last game. In addition to Paul's 36 points, he also had 16 assists. Although Paul's performance was very dazzling, the Hornets team won the game.

"No, it's not that CP3 doesn't want to, but he can't. Look at the Rockets' defense." It happened to be the Hornets' offensive round at this time, and Mark Jackson said directly.

Brin looked at the field suspiciously, and after watching for a while, he also suddenly realized.

Before, because Paul attacked very fiercely when he came up, he didn't pay attention to the Rockets' defense. Looking at it now, the Rockets' defense has not changed from the beginning to now!

Whatever you want, Paul, the Rockets just keep an eye on the other four and don't give you a chance to pass the ball.

The four players on the Rockets, Pietrus, Battier, Millsap, and Yao Ming are not bad in single defense. If Paul is really playing one-on-one, the other players of the Hornets really don't have much chance.

In this case, Paul had a strong desire to attack from the beginning, but he had to attack by himself.

"I understand, I understand, Tang Tian is really incredible!" Mark Jackson burst out laughing as he spoke.

"What?" Brin turned his head suspiciously.

"T-mac won the scoring title, right?"

"Yes, during Magic, twice."

"What is the highest score in CP3's career?"

"I'll have to see this one... 43 points against the Grizzlies in December."

"So T-mac has the ability to beat the Hornets, and CP3 has the strength to beat the Rockets, no, physical strength?"

Jackson's statement silenced Brin, which is a strange conclusion, but it seems to be the reason for the difference in defense between the two sides.

McGrady is the leading scorer. Now that he is not injured, his scoring ability is not weaker than that of the Magic. If you really let Peterson defend him alone, he might really be able to score 60 or even 70 points on your head.

But Paul...Although his personal offensive ability is excellent, he is not a scorer after all. You can let him score 40 points, barely 50 points, 60 points? I'm afraid a normal person wouldn't think he could score this score.

This is the biggest difference between a super scorer and a point guard with top scoring ability.

Brin understood, and looked at Tang Tian even hotter.

I found this out after losing this match, Tang Tian was really terrified.

Tang Tian couldn't hear the exchange between the two in the commentary, but his expression was very calm at the moment.

Thibodeau on the side also looked relaxed. He found that with Tang Tian around, he could really be fearless.

If he could have heard Brin and Jackson communicating, he would have jumped up and countered, because what they saw was only the most superficial corner of this change, not the real core.

The real core is that the Hornets' weak defense at positions 2, 3, and even 4 is the key point.

Peterson is not bad against average players, but against Tracy McGrady, he can only be blown up, not to mention Peja. He is already a poor defender, and it would be a disaster for him to misplace Pietrus. As for West, he is limited. Due to his height and athletic ability, he is not strong on defense.

Completely removing Yao Ming from the offensive system and using Tracy McGrady to cut open the Hornets' defensive gap is like using a missile to blast a big hole in the Hornets' dam, directly blasting the Hornets over the embankment.

If it were any other coach, even if he had the awareness, he would not have the courage.

But Tang Tian dared to do this on the night of Yao Ming's awards. He is really the coach he admires the most in the NBA for more than ten years.
