Chapter 266： Crazy 3 Axes (Part 2)

"Ah, let's see, the Rockets are changing!"

"They didn't let Dayao go against Zuo Li, but chose to let the team's No. 3, that is, Artest, who is familiar to everyone, go to dislocation to defend. I have to say that this is a very bold decision."

In the CCTV live room, Yu Jia felt a little regretful. After all, he personally really wanted to see Zuo Li and Dayao have a direct conversation. In this era when centers are dying out and teams are more and more inclined to attack from the outside, he would like to see something like this Confrontation is not easy.

But Zhang - which doesn't make sense to look at anything - the guidance is clearly not the same today, which, he thinks, makes perfect sense.

"The Rockets are making use of their strengths and circumventing weaknesses. Dayao can't keep up with him. He can't keep up with Zuoli's footsteps. He couldn't keep up with Okur before playing the Jazz, let alone Zuoli who was faster than Okur. The advantage is to stand on the inside to protect the frame. The difference between Zuoli and Okur is that although Zuoli also makes three-pointers, he doesn't make many shots and the hit rate is average."

"So let Artest, the new force, stand up, not necessarily to see death, but to use him to consume Zuo Li, make Zuo Li beat him uncomfortable, and then liberate Dayao."

"Adelman's trick is bullshit."

Director Zhang almost gave Adelman a thumbs up.

Although Director Zhang is a big fan of Zuo Li, after all, the Rockets have always been his home team. On such a public occasion, he still hopes that the Rockets can win.

The camera is right on Adelman at the moment, the former famous veteran of the Green Army smiled slightly, hiding his merits and fame.

Instructor Zhang even guessed correctly and I would talk nonsense?

The Rockets have this idea. Letting Dayao follow Zuo Li is undoubtedly courting death. Dayao will be dragged down before halftime. If you don't believe me, look at Bogut, who is still lying on the injured list.

Adelman didn't want Dayao to join Zuo Li's "Doomed Center" collection, so he didn't want Dayao to defend from the beginning.

But neither can Scola. Although diamonds are durable, in 2017 when Zuo Li crossed the line, this 40-year-old man is still alive and kicking in the arena. His speed is not slow, but his strength is not good. The proper technical flow, let him go to fight with Zuo Li, it is estimated that this diamond will also be heading towards graphite.

After much deliberation, Artest is the most suitable. Artest is 201 cm tall and weighs 120 kilograms. In terms of strength, he has never counseled anyone in the No. 3 position, and his style is tough. Action, and the speed to keep up with left standing.

Adelman doesn't expect him to completely defend, as long as he can continue to consume Zuoli's physical strength, it is best to let Zuo Li fall into anger and trouble.

As soon as Artest came up, he practiced the coach's instructions very well!

Zuo Li saw that Artest came to defend, and immediately handed the ball to Dragic, then found a pick-and-roll by himself, ready to go to the low post.

But Artest slammed into Chandler directly over the pick-and-roll, followed Zuo Li closely, but did not let Zuo Li go to the low position easily. Obviously, this is also part of the Rockets' tactics.

Poor Chandler can be considered a strong man, and he plays very fiercely, but he was directly knocked away by Artest.

That's right, the bulls collided shoulder-to-shoulder, but Chandler, a strong man, couldn't resist, which made Zuo Li have a better understanding of Artest's strength.

The impression of later generations of Artest must be the fierce style of play, but the most memorable scene for many people must be in the 'famous' conflict at the Auburn Hills Palace, Artest was pushed away by Big Ben with a slap, so many Everyone thinks that Artest is just superficial.

But you are wrong, a big book doesn't mean Artest can't do it!

ESPN's evaluation of him is: "Fighting, has outstanding strength, speed, stealing ability and first-class defensive skills. It is fun to freeze the opposing team's leading scorer on the court. The only downside is that the action can sometimes have Harmful."

Harmful...

Zuo Li was taught.

But not deep enough.

Soon, Zuo Li, who received the ball on the flank, realized the intensity of Artest's defense. As expected, he is one of the few tough guys in this era who can be used to defend James, Anthony and Pierce. His actions are not only fierce but also fierce. Absolutely cowardly.

If you add the non-stop trash in his mouth, the average person loses half of the battle before they fight.

But Zuo Li doesn't talk about ordinary people!

He was unmoved by this kind of defense. He saw a lot on the street, so he took the initiative to find physical contact.

After dribbling the ball under the crotch, he took two steps inward, and the crotch was pulled back again. After breaking through to the vicinity of the penalty area in the opposite direction, he started to play with his back.

Artest used his whole body to push, but Artest found that Zuoli's power was even more terrifying than he thought, and the guys who were knocked away in the previous highlights were really not performances.

"Impossible!" Artest instantly became ruthless, and then...

The referee's whistle blew, Artest pushed a foul!

Zuo Li's first attack was very effective.

"Tsk, Zuo Li's crack is very beautiful, Artest is very strong, but to deal with Zuo Li, he is still a little bit overwhelmed by his back." Barkley said that he was not optimistic about the Rockets' defensive tactic from the beginning.

Sure enough, the sideline ball was sent directly to Zuo Li this time, and Zuo Li turned his back on the inside and bunny jumped for the Knicks to take the lead in scoring.

2-0.

Good start.

However, the Rockets did not mess up their positions, which was what they expected, and this was just their first axe.

Soon, the second axe was swung out!

About 2 and a half minutes later, the Rockets made a substitution. McGrady, who had just scored 2 points, was replaced, and Shane came on stage!

In this round, Zuo Li held the ball again. This time, he chose to pick and roll and then rushed forward. Artest was blocked. Zuo Li grabbed the neutral and went in. After Taiju!

What a three-British battle against Lu Bu!

Zuo Li is numb, as for what, use these three people to guard against him!

As for!

This is the second axe of the Rockets, super flanking, using Artest and Shane Battier to form the front gate, Dayao is in the middle, putting a lot of pressure on Zuo Li!

Zuoli failed to score this attack, and Zuoli missed again in the next round.

"Damn it, the defensive pressure is too much." Zuo Li was a little helpless. He was okay with one fight now, but three, it was a little difficult.

In my memory, Artest and Battier are members of the second and third teams of the best defensive team this season, plus Dayao, the best second team...

"It's a bit difficult." Zuo Li crossed his hips.

In this quarter, under such a defense, Zuoli only made 3 of 8 shots scored 6 points, and the hit rate was also a career low in a single quarter.

The Rockets took advantage of the situation and got a 26-17 lead. The Knicks only scored 17 points in a single quarter.

But it's not over!

In the second quarter, Zuo Li made his debut without any repairs. The Rockets got on Hayes and Uncle Mu's inside partner. Zuo Li seemed to see the hope of chasing points. However, Hayes chose to foul Zuo Li as soon as he came up...

When the ball from the sideline came out, Uncle Mu found another opportunity...

This familiar taste, this familiar gesture...

"Cut to the left tactics!"

"Hi~!"

Many fans breathed a sigh of relief, this rocket is ruthless enough, not to mention that it is used so early, they also use it to lead? !

Aren't you afraid of playing with fire and setting yourself on fire?
