After the first half of the season, Yao took the lead in the second half of the season.

Although Yao is strong enough and efficient enough, 3-out-of-4, 4-out-of-4 free throws and 3 rebounds, the offensive firepower of the Lakers is really fierce, especially Ji Feng. In the first quarter, he showed his dominance in both sides of the attack and defense. In the face of Ron Artest, the number of 15 points, 3 assists, 3 rebounds and 1 steals in a single quarter is amazing, and he also cuts off Artest and Ron Artest The connection between Yao, as the second scoring point of the Rockets this season, Artest shot 4 times in this section, got 2 points, and paid for a foul. It can be said that Jifeng completely suppressed him, and Jifeng completely showed the dignity of his new MVP.

And Kobe is also excellent, the first quarter he as usual did not take the initiative to attack, but in the defensive end, he successfully played this season to play God brave Foye completely suppressed.

In the first half of the regular season, Foye, as a substitute of T-Mac, can get 9 points and 4 rebounds per game, with a shooting rate of 54%, which is considered to be the biggest discovery of the Rockets this season. After McGrady's injury, he started his 36 games with an average of 14 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, becoming the most stable attack firepower point on the third position of the Rockets, and has been in many critical moments After a wonderful play, such as against Carter, he had a career high 23 points.

But in the face of Kobe's close marking, Foye was completely dumb, as the third attack point in the first quarter, he didn't get a point, the scene was very embarrassing.

As for the inside double towers of the Lakers, Yao and Scola were held back in the first quarter. Although the score was not high, but the state was also good. Although Bynum's 4 points were average, it at least proved his ability to create some troubles for Yao.

This section for the Lakers is to suppress first and then Yang, it proved that the Laker's on-the-spot adaptability and the status of each major player are online, which undoubtedly deepened their confidence in winning.

But the first quarter for the Rockets is not without harvest, at least proved that with conventional means, normal to play, they are difficult to beat the Lakers.

Of course, this is not surprising, rockets bench, Adelman and Rockets players look very calm, still meticulously explain the tactics, this round of series is optimistic about the Rockets is not many, and the two teams have a real strength gap, and is away, this situation is not unacceptable.

"Artest! Tough! Harder! Take out your blood! Don't be afraid of fouls. Limit Ji Feng!! Don't let him score easily The restless tactics that Adelman called out under his calm expression.

"Yes! Give it to me! I can do it! " And listen to Artest eyes in the fierce light, angular muscles look more terrible.

Yes, he is ready to do something. People familiar with Artest know him and Jifeng Liang Zi. As early as last season, when he was still in the king's office, he had a verbal battle with Jifeng. When he met on the field, it was always the tip of a needle to wheat awn, but it was always him who suffered the loss, which made him very angry. But is there any good way to do it? After all, the incident of Auburn mountain palace just passed a few years ago, now He didn't dare to hurt people on the court.

But today, he decided not to bear it!

Yes, this is the playoffs, since the normal way can not play, there is a gap in strength, and do not want to admit defeat, it must be used some other tactics, such as the spurs that overturned Nash, the Spurs of Carter, the Spurs of locking throat Kobe It's all spurs!

Sorry, spurs! I'm not aiming at you, I'm talking about all of you (cough, cough, cough) I mean, strategies like this are common in the playoffs. If you ask Jordan, in the 1980s, when there were no criminals, how terrible his defense was in the playoffs.

Of course, for the coach, vicious criminals are not the purpose, tough is, do not let the opponent score easily in front of themselves, more fierce and aggressive defense is the top priority, as for how the players understand, it is not in the charge of the coach.

In the past, it was very difficult for the Rockets to do this kind of thing, because you have looked through the list of rockets, such as Yao, Tracy McGrady, uncle mu, Scola and so on. They are all famous good men, and they seldom get angry on the field. In any case, it is the material for doing this. Some critics once said that the key to the Rockets' continuous loss and snatch is that they are not tough enough.

Of course, this is reasonable. Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why the Rockets lost 2 times and snatched 7 in 4 years, and always lost the chain at the critical moment.

However, this season is different. Artest's arrival has changed the team atmosphere of the Rockets. He has brought the toughness they need. As a famous villain in of the league, although he seems to have changed his ways, he is still the most popular guy on the field. At this critical moment, there is no more suitable person for this kind of dirty work than Artest!

The second section begins!

Jifeng directly appeared, Kobe, Bynum rest, this is the usual way for the Lakers to change people, and the Rockets let Yao take a little rest off the court, and replaced the double low lineup of Hayes and Landry in the interior line. They came to fight for Yao and Scola for rest time. The replacement was really helpless. After Mutombo was injured, the Rockets' interior substitute really caught the eye Elbow.

The Lakers certainly won't let go of this opportunity. As soon as the season peak came up, Gasol opened to create a one-to-one chance to defend his brother named Hayes, a 198 cm inside line, hard-working and full of wisdom of the top defender, but he was really too short, Gasol easily turned his back and small hook to hit the ball, Hayes didn't even jump, anyway, it didn't make sense to jump Defense has always relied on strength to push people out, once shooting, he can only watch the opponent.It's a legend that this height can enter the NBA to play as a substitute. The shortest figure is the biggest opponent. In Ji Feng's mind, he is comparable to potato Webber. After all, the outside line can also use speed and shooting. The inside line is really weak without height.

For three consecutive rounds, Gasol scored six points and made Hayes a foul, helping the Lakers expand the gap to eight points, and Jifeng also received two assists, which made the situation very good.

With this going on, the Lakers have a good chance to get a double-digit lead in the second quarter.

But the situation changed in the third minute, Ji Feng didn't give the inside line this time, but chose to play by himself. Facing Artest, Ji Feng changed direction twice and then directly turned back to jump shot!

This was a very ordinary attack, but Artest was very fierce, but very low, more like to move forward rather than upward, so he did not have a chance to meet basketball.

It's more like going for a man than for a ball!

Bang!

Artest raised his hands high and hit Ji Feng innocently!

"Shit!" After the release of the season peak found the wrong, in the air limit distance adjusted the center, but still hit by Artest.

However, Ji Feng's balance is too good, still found balance, the original intention is to land on his left foot, but Jifeng's right foot first stepped on Artest's foot!

"Step up!"
