The Godfather of Basketball

The Rockets took the lead, but in the next few rounds, they fell into a passive state.

O'Neal forced Yao Ming in the paint, and Yao Ming was at a disadvantage in confrontation, and was squeezed into the paint by the Sharks to score.

Looking back, Uncle Huo made a mistake when he was giving Tracy McGrady a pick-and-roll.

After the Heat stole the ball, Wade counterattacked with the ball and went all the way to the frontcourt to score a layup.

The Heat beat the Rockets 4-0.

This is just the beginning. McGrady caught the ball and missed a goal on the Rockets side. Looking back, O'Neal made a strong play at the basket to attract Uncle Huo to double-team, and then gave the ball to Haslem. Haslem Straight hit the board to score.

Here, the Heat did not give the Rockets a chance. Yao Ming hit O'Neal's small hook and was caught by Wade's defense. Haslem pressed Uncle Huo, who was stuck in the position, and rebounded accept.

When the Heat hit the frontcourt, Wade and Haslem made a pick-and-roll, and they went straight to Uncle Huo, and the ball hit the board.

The two sides played for two minutes, and the Heat beat the Rockets 8-2.

Van Gundy loudly reminded the players of their defensive positions on the sidelines, but Tang Tian behind him couldn't help frowning.

This is what he wanted to suggest to Van Gundy before, but he hadn't had time to say it because of the TNT incident.

Among the previous opponents of the Rockets, the inside line was not strong. The combination of Yao Ming and Howard did not suffer on the defensive end, but the Heat had O'Neal, and the shortcomings of Uncle Huo's slow pace after he got older were infinitely magnified.

I can't keep up with the rhythm when picking and rolling, I can't keep up with the footsteps when defending, and I can't go back after assisting defense.

The game on the court continued, McGrady broke through and finally scored a goal, but looking back, Wade and O'Neal scored two goals for the Heat in the paint.

After playing for more than three minutes, the Rockets have trailed the Heat by 8 points 4 to 12.

Van Gundy was forced to call a timeout.

"We play zone defense, and we can no longer let the Heat score easily under the basket." Van Gundy picked up the tactical board, touched his already bald head, and then quickly drew on the tactical board.

After Van Gundy finished setting up his tactics, he threw the tactics board to Tang Tian.

"Zhu Wan, when you attack, go to the basket more often, don't pick and roll, Yao, you pull to the position one step outside the free throw line, except for Sean, everyone else goes to the basket when attacking, Haas Lem's defensive ability is average, so let's focus on him." Tang Tian also made some adjustments to the offensive layout according to the changes in the field situation.

Two coaches, one attacking and the other defending, this can be regarded as a spectacle in the NBA.

After the tactics were arranged, the timeout was almost up, and the players were all on the field one after another.

Tang Tian put down the tactical board, stood up and said to Van Gundy: "Jeff, I think in the current situation, replacing Zhu Wan and replacing Paul may be more effective than zone defense."

Van Gundy turned his head and glanced at Tang Tian, ​​then sat back on the bench with a straight face without saying a word.

Seeing his reaction, Tang Tian could only smile helplessly, turned around and walked back to the bench to sit down.

The game on the field continued.

The Rockets attacked, and after Yao Ming changed from the free throw line to a high ball, O'Neal was completely pulled out from the inside.

Tang Tian's judgment was indeed correct. After O'Neal came out, the Heat's inside line seemed very empty.

Alstom used Battier's pick-and-roll to go straight to the basket, attracted Haslem's defense, and then gave a ball to McGrady who was following closely.

Haslem turned around and couldn't defend, so he could only watch the Rockets score.

"It's a beautiful offensive choice. Shaq's movement speed is already slow. Coupled with his age, it is impossible to take it back." Miller in the commentary seat couldn't help but exclaimed. Compared with predicting who will win and who will lose, he is obviously better at analyzing the situation on the field.

Miller's exclamation didn't finish. Looking back, Wade used the pick-and-roll to break Uncle Huo's footsteps and couldn't keep up. Then, facing the zone defense, he quickly sent the ball to Posey outside. Posey made a three-pointer and shot The knife fell.

15 to 6, the point difference seems to be heading for double digits.

The fans cheered loudly, and the Heat clearly had the advantage in the match between the two sides.

It seems that Barkley's "performance moment" is not far away.

Brin was cheering for the Heat's goal, but Miller looked at the Rockets' bench with a puzzled expression. He could tell that the old Howard was a bit slow. Why didn't Van Gundy notice it?

Van Gundy looked stiff.

As a defensive master, in fact, when Tang Tian brought it up, he also realized that the old Howard was the crux of the defensive end.

But the problem doesn't care whether to change Howard or not, but that it was proposed by Tang Tian.

Under Dawson's pressure, he has already given in and handed over the team's offensive rights. If Tang Tian is allowed to dictate the defensive arrangement, then what is the meaning of his existence as the head coach?

If Dawson realizes that he is dispensable, isn't it just a matter of minutes after class?

So the defensive arrangement does not allow Tang Tian to participate, this is his bottom line.

The Rockets' offense, the same tactic, O'Neal chose to take it back this time, Yao Ming made a fake fax shot, and directly stepped forward to hit a mid-range hit.

Yao Ming has such a good touch as a big center, which is quite rare in NBA history.

For two consecutive rounds, O'Neal didn't accept it, and it didn't matter if he didn't accept it. The Rockets' offense was on the right track.

But when it came to the defensive end, Uncle Huo was stunned again on the defensive end. This time Wade showed his personal ability, using his speed to score three layups.

The score remained unchanged.

Van Gundy glanced at the scoreboard at this time, a little unable to sit still, stood up directly from the bench, pointed to Hayes on the bench, and motioned for him to replace the old Howard.

Tang Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this, this Van Gundy is really... the style of an old-school coach!

Knowing that he was wrong, but desperate for face, he didn't follow his suggestion to replace Millsap.
