Chapter 285 China time, three people on the same stage!
Time flies and it’s January 2011.
So far this season, the Rockets have played a total of 33 games and won 30 of them, ranking first in the league.
In addition, they are currently on an 11-game winning streak and are in hot shape!
Today, the Rockets came to Maple Leaf Country and challenged the Toronto Raptors away from home.
The day before the game, Shen Fei specifically contacted the Chinese Basketball Association to inform them that Yi Jianlian would be playing today.
His original words were: "Maybe in tomorrow's game, there will be three Chinese players playing at the same time, which should be very interesting."
Officials of the Basketball Association were overjoyed and immediately started making arrangements.
Not long after, CCTV announced in its news program that it would temporarily broadcast an additional NBA game.
For this reason, they even gave up the live broadcast of the "Dragon Boat Race".
Fans of TV5 all know that when there is a time conflict between NBA events and dragon boat races and marathon races, 99% of CCTV will give up the NBA broadcast.
But today, their attitude has changed 180°!
This shows the influence of this Rockets team in China.
In the words of a Rockets fan on Hupu: "Yao Ming has been watching football since he entered the NBA in 2002. This year is the best chance to win the championship. My youth is coming to an end, but the Rockets are reaching their peak!"
It can be said that nowadays, whether they are fans of Yao Mai, fans of Kobe or James...
All basketball groups basically hope that the Rockets can realize their dreams this year.
The boss is Chinese and there are three Chinese players in the team!
In a sense, the Rockets are like China's own team!
............
"Hello everyone, this is NBA live broadcast brought to you by tv-5."
"I'm Yang Jian!"
"I'm Su Qun."
In the broadcast room, two commentators started.
“Today brings you the Houston Rockets vs. Toronto Raptors game!”
"Coach Su, can you give us a brief analysis of this game?"
Yang Jian asked.
"no problem."
"In this game, the strength of the two sides is quite different, but the game is quite interesting."
"I believe many fans have seen UAE training videos on the Internet in the past two days."
"A total of 100 three-pointers, one shot to the end, without editing in the whole process, the UAE hit 95 of them!"
Su Qun said excitedly.
"Moreover, we can also clearly find that the UAE has adjusted its shooting posture."
Yang Jian added.
"That's right! Although I don't know what caused him to suddenly change his posture, but judging from the results, this posture can help Ah Lian shoot more accurately and faster!"
"If this feeling can be transferred into the game, I think UAE has a lot to do in this Rockets team!"
Su Qun couldn't hide his excitement.
"Yes, I just got the Rockets' roster for this game. Dayao, Shuhao, and Alian are all on the roster."
"This is the first time in NBA history that three Chinese players are on the roster at the same time in a game, and they are still on the same team."
Yang Jian said happily.
"Then I think everyone can look forward to whether the three of them will play at the same time today."
Su Qun smiled slightly and said.
He actually knew the inside information, but he couldn't reveal it directly.
“You can really look forward to it!”
"Now that the starting lineups of both sides have been determined, the Rockets have not changed from before. Let me introduce you to the Raptors' starting five."
"The point guard is Jose Calderon from Spain. His shooting and organizational skills are pretty good."
"The shooting guard is last year's No. 9 pick - DeMar DeRozan, who is also the core player of this Raptors team."
"Old Rockets players Joey Dorsey and Amir Johnson form the front line."
"The center position is the No. 1 pick in 2006 - Bagliani."
Yang Jian introduced them one by one.
"The Raptors' starting lineup is really mediocre in talent. No wonder they only rank second to last in the Eastern Conference."
"I hope the Rockets can end the game quickly like they did in the past few games. In this case, Arab League and Shu Hao will have more opportunities to play."
Su Qun commented.
Generally speaking, the host cannot have an obvious position.
But today's situation is very different. The Rockets are the absolute home team, and there is nothing wrong with being partial.
"Okay, now the game is about to start, let's hand the camera to the front!"
After saying that, Yang Jian waved his hand and the screen turned to the Aviation Center Arena.
............
As the referee throws the ball high, the game officially begins!
Yao Ming jumped high and easily won the ball.
Rockets attack first!
Curry held the ball through half the court and came to the top of the arc to organize his teammates' movements.
Inside, Yao Ming made a quick move and locked Bagliani, who was also the top pick, behind him.
Seeing this, Curry flicked his wrist and handed the ball to Dayao with a lob.
After Yao Ming caught the ball, he hit the ball twice, penetrated deep into the penalty area, and then rose from the ground...
"bang!"
A powerful and heavy one-handed dunk shook the rim.
2:0, the Rockets took the lead.
In the next round, in the same position, Curry hit the ground and passed the ball to Dayao again.
This time, Yao Ming turned over and shot a jumper directly after receiving the ball.
With his height of 2.26 meters and his backward tilt... Bagliani didn't even have the desire to block the shot, and just stood there looking at the ocean and sighing.
"Shua~"
Hit again!
A minute later, Yao Ming received Curry's pass for the third time and hit again with a small hook.
In just two minutes, Dayao scored 6 points alone, helping the Rockets get a perfect start.
"Eh? Yao Yao is very eager to attack today. He is very excited on the court!"
Yang Jian was a little surprised.
"I think Curry is really different from all the Rockets point guards in the past!"
"After so many years, I finally have a defender who can feed Yao the ball..."
Su Qun sighed.
His eyes returned to the field.
After Yao Ming scored three goals in a row, the Raptors were forced to start double-teaming him.
But in this way, the Rockets' outside players will have more opportunities.
McGrady was the first to bear the brunt, scoring 5 points in a row with a pull-up three-pointer and a pull-up mid-range shot.
Followed closely by Curry, he first made a sudden cold arrow in the fast break, and then performed a freehand high-beat layup.
The Raptors didn't know until the fifth minute of the game that DeRozan turned over and made a jump shot in the low post, scoring two points.
16:2, the game seemed to be losing suspense in the first quarter.
Raptors head coach Jan Triano saw something was not going well and called a timeout.
Although the Raptors' goal this year is to fail, they don't want to lose too badly in front of their hometown crowd at home.
............
After the timeout, all the Raptors' main players stayed on the court, while the Rockets replaced a large number of substitutes.
Shu Hao, Roy, Danny Green, and Tucker all appeared one after another.
"Now there are two Chinese players on the field, and the only one missing is the Arab League!"
Yang Jian said as soon as he saw the Rockets' lineup.
"It's coming soon. At this pace, UAE should have a chance to play soon."
Su Qun laughed.
The game continues.
The Raptors adjusted their tactics and increased the number of ball passes on the offensive end.
However, the Rockets' defense remains impregnable.
The forward line composed of Danny Green and PJ Tucker is impeccable whether it is single defense or assist defense.
Whenever Raptors players faced off against the two of them, they would feel an inexplicable "suffocation" feeling.
Finally, DeRozan made a reverse run, received Calderon's pass in the penalty area, and prepared to attack the frame.
Green and Tucker both jumped up and blocked shots one after another in the air.
Yes, DeRozan's layup was rebounded after Tucker pinned it, only to be pinned on the backboard by Green again!
Seeing this scene, Mark Jackson on the coaching bench couldn't help but think of Shen Fei's evaluation of the two - low-profile versions of the suffocating brothers.
At the time, Mark Jackson had difficulty understanding the word.
As for the choice, he finally got what "Suffocation Brothers" is, but why it is a low-end version, Mark Jackson still can't figure it out.
After completing the block, the Rockets launched a counterattack.
During the fast break, Shuhao showed his super physical fitness.
He ran rampant, rushed into the Raptors penalty area alone, and then faced the opponent's power forward, Amir Johnson, and steadily sent the ball into the basket.
"Beep!"
The whistle sounded and the Raptors committed a defensive foul.
and.one!
"It's so hard! You can't find anyone with Shuhao's style anywhere else in Asia!"
"At that moment, I seemed to see the shadow of Westbrook!"
Yang Jian said excitedly.
"He is indeed a rare point guard among yellow people who relies on weight and explosive power."
Su Qun sighed.
After Shuhao completed his wonderful goal, the Rockets' bench was in chaos.
The young people headed by Curry were staggering around in celebration, with smiles on everyone's faces.
Yi Jianlian, who is usually relatively introverted, stood up uncharacteristically and applauded the scholar.
[It should be time for me to play soon, right?!]
Yao Ming and Shu Hao have both performed well, and Arab League is also looking forward to their performance!
