The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 72 Tactics are King (Part 2)

"beep!"

There was a long whistle from the sidelines for the timeout, and players from both sides re-entered the field.

"Defend! Defend!"

Driven by the live DJ, the scene remembered the deafening shouts.

The Rockets Blake served from the sidelines, and the ball passed directly to Tracy McGrady.

McGrady held the ball, and the Rockets quickly launched a double pick-and-roll. Yao Ming mentioned the high position and gave McGrady a pick-and-roll, and Millsap made an off-ball pick-and-roll for Novak.

It's a play that's almost identical to the regular-season game against the Heat.

Sloan on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this tactic.

Tang Tian guessed his tactics, but he also successfully predicted Tang Tian's tactics.

Boozer scored two points in the last goal, but luck can't also appear on the Rockets' side.

The players on the Jazz changed defenses quickly, and Boozer straightened his long arms and threw himself out.

Novak's movement speed is not outstanding, and Boozer has completely locked up his receiving space when he switches defenses.

"Sure enough, it was seen through!" Brin at the commentary booth sighed.

After witnessing the game where the Rockets defeated the Heat, he still hoped that Tang Tian, ​​who became the head coach, would surprise him again, but it was a pity that in the end, Jiang was still old and hot, and it was impossible to have surprises every time. .

"wrong!"

At this moment, Miller suddenly exclaimed.

Following Miller's exclamation, Brin suddenly looked towards the field.

It was at this time that he discovered that the Rockets' tactics had changed at this time.

McGrady did not break through after taking advantage of the pick and roll, but chose to go out!

"This..." Brin felt a little stunned. He was deceived by Tang Tian's tactics. Novak was not the end point at all, but a point to restrain the defense!

Boozer rushed to the bottom corner, and the Jazz's inside line was bound to be empty. In this case, whether Yao Ming or McGrady launched an attack, the Jazz lost the opportunity to double-team!

Sloan was also stunned. As a famous coach, he felt like the football field was being shaken.

After the pick-and-roll, Yao Ming quickly made an empty cut to the basket, and Harprin could only follow in.

With less than 4 seconds left in the game, the three-point line became a one-on-one between McGrady and Okur.

This is Tang Tian's real tactic.

McGrady continued the fiery touch of the previous game. He had already scored 32 points before. It is the best choice to give him the final lore.

McGrady changed direction left and right, and then broke through. Judging from this posture, he is about to make a signature pull-up jumper.

Okur stepped back and stretched out his hands to cover McGrady.

But at the moment he did this, McGrady suddenly stopped and retreated, jumping directly outside the three-point line! Followed by a three-point shot!

This change is too fast, how could Okur, a big center, keep up with McGrady's speed!

McGrady had already shot before he threw it again.

The basketball flew straight to the basket, and all the audience couldn't hold it anymore.

"Don't go in! Don't go in!" Some spectators shouted anxiously from the sidelines.

What they're praying for now is that this isn't the offense McGrady is used to.

"beep~"

The red light on the sidelines came on, and when the basketball jumped halfway through the air, the final whistle sounded.

One goal decides the outcome!

All the players on the benches on both sides also stood up, all looking at the spinning basketball in the air.

The basketball is getting closer and closer to the basket, and the faces of the Rockets players are getting more and more excited.

"Shua!"

A crisp sound of entering the net echoed in the Energy Solutions Arena, as if a large basin of cold water was poured into the hearts of all the fans at the scene in an instant.

Lore!

McGrady beat the Jazz with a three-pointer!

After Cole's three-point training, this kind of three-pointer after getting rid of, his stability has already been qualitatively improved!

And this lore goal also allowed the Rockets to sweep the Jazz 4-0, breaking into the second round of the playoffs for the first time in ten years!

"yeah!"

The coldness of the entire arena couldn't stop the excitement of the Rockets players. They rushed to the field like crazy and lifted McGrady up.

"1, 2, 3!"

With the shouts, McGrady was thrown into the air again and again by them.

Crazy celebration, completely forgetting that this is the home of the Jazz.

Tang Tian looked at the excited team members with an unbearably excited expression.

In the previous life, Yao Mai was injured in various ways, and he couldn't survive the first round. The only year Yao Mai was injured was also injured. Now seeing a healthy Yao Ming enter the second round, the sense of satisfaction is involuntary.

"Coach! Coach!"

Tang Tian was so excited, he didn't notice that the team members had finished throwing away McGrady, and now he ran to his side, yelling and hugged him directly.

McGrady's ability to hit the lore is his ability, but as a player, he naturally knows very well that Tang Tian's tactical arrangement of one attack and one defense at the last moment is the most critical point for winning.

Before Tang Tian could refuse, he was picked up by the team members and thrown into the air.

Because of their age, these team members lost Tang Tian's identity when they were excited.

Being thrown up and down by the team members, Tang Tian couldn't help but yelled a few times as he watched the ceiling above his head go far and near.

The excitement that was released was indeed very refreshing.

After celebrating with the team members, Tang Tian found that Alexander gave him a thumbs up and then made a sweeping motion.

Tang Tian couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw this action, this gentle and elegant boss, this time it was considered humorous.

At the press conference after the game, the reporters below were all eager to move.

The media predicted a lot before the game, but no one thought that the Rockets would be the first team in the league to advance to the second round.

"A wonderful victory. The Jazz made various attempts in the series. Boozer said more than once before the game that he wanted to win the game, but in the end, they failed to win any game. Facts have proved that they are not your opponents in the series, are they?" The first question asked by the reporter was quite tricky.

"No, the Jazz are a respectable opponent. They are tough and competitive. They have changed a little bit in the series. They are a team with the strength to compete for the championship."

After Tang Tian said this, he immediately attracted the admiring gazes of many reporters. What he said, while he praised his opponent, he also silently praised himself.

"Now that the Mavericks are 1-2 behind the Warriors, which team do you want to play against?"

"It seems... I can't decide?" Tang Tian said with a smile.

The reporters below also laughed for a while after listening.

"However, no matter who the opponent is, we will go all out. This team has only one goal, which is to compete for the championship." Tang Tian then said firmly.
