Chapter 290 Challenge the Rocket
After halftime between the Celtics and the Warriors, the Celtics have already led the Warriors by more than 20 points.
From the data point of view, in the last game, Durant and Curry of the Warriors only played for 3 minutes before being replaced for a rest.
The Warriors have given up the game, and the outcome of the last game is completely meaningless to the Warriors.
If it has to be meaningful, if the Warriors lose to the Celtics in the last game, they can feel sick and want to sprint to the Toronto Raptors, the third in the East.
Siakam cursed angrily.
"Damn it, Warriors villains. Do you think we will be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs if we do this?"
Ge Feng stopped the emotional crowd and said, "Don't be angry, it's not worth it. The Warriors' actions just show that they are afraid of us. Why should we be angry? If the Warriors really lose to the Celtics, then we will defeat the Rockets and the Lakers and let them see. The defending champion Raptors are such a team that can be easily bullied?"
Seeing that everyone calmed down, Ge Feng raised his arms and shouted: "Tell me, who are we?"
"We are the defending champions!"
"What are we going to do?"
"We want to hit the third place in the Eastern Conference!"
"come on, come on, come on……"
"GO!"
……
The final game of the regular season between the Raptors and the Rockets.
The major media in the country have firmly locked in every game related to Ge Feng.
The fans chatted happily in the live broadcast room.
The favorite thing for fans to do in the live broadcast room is to compare Yao Ming and Ge Feng.
The Rockets are Yao Ming's home team, and the Raptors are Ge Feng's current home team.
This is definitely a big collision of domestic fans. Many of them stayed in Yao Ming's era in the Rockets.
The Rockets still have many Chinese fans supporting them. The reason for this is mainly due to Yao Ming.
Although Yao Ming has never led the Rockets to win an NBA championship trophy, fans who have watched Yao Ming play know what role Yao Ming played in the Rockets at his peak.
At the peak, Yao Ming's position in the Rockets is like O'Neal's position in the Lakers.
The team would rather sell the young Kobe and Tracy McGrady than such outstanding inside cores as Yao Ming and O'Neal.
It's a pity that Yao Ming was abandoned by the team like O'Neal in his later years after his injury.
On-site commentary, the TNT Big Three, whom I haven't seen for a long time, rarely have the time to come to the Raptors' live broadcast room in the new season.
Of course, everything in the NBA is very realistic.
Why did the Big Three of TNT appear in the Raptors' live broadcast room? It's not because the Raptors' opponent in this game is the Houston Rockets, which has attracted much attention in the league.
Harden is the MVP hotness of this season, and the TNT Big Three will run to the Rockets' live broadcast room if they have nothing to do.
Seeing Ge Feng and others warming up for the Raptors, the TNT Big Three felt a little familiar.
That's right, last season, the Raptors emerged as a new force, and the game that the TNT Big Three commented the most was the game of the Raptors.
O'Neal said with a smile: "The three of us haven't commented on a Raptors game for almost a year."
Barkley curled his lips and said: "Who said it wasn't. Last season, I had many stumbles at the hands of this yellow-skinned kid. This season is going to be better. Without DeRozan and Leonard, the Raptors are finally hopping."
Smith laughed and said, "Master Baron, if you can still say such things, it means that the lessons Ge Feng taught you are not deep enough. You have to understand that the Raptors are now attacking the third place in the Eastern Conference, and the Raptors in the new season are not Lowry, let alone Van Vleet, but the third-year Ge Feng."
The three were arguing endlessly about the Raptors, but they couldn't figure out why.
O'Neal is optimistic about the Raptors, Barkley is optimistic about the Raptors, and Smith has a vague attitude. The three of them fought in the live broadcast room until the start of the game, but they didn't win or lose.
While they were talking, the starting players from both sides appeared one after another.
The Rockets started with Paul, Harden and Gordon in the backcourt, Capela and Melo Anthony in the frontcourt.
The Rockets' lineup this year has not changed much from last year.
The only change is the Rockets' front line.
On the Rockets' front line, Ariza, the defensive gatekeeper, went to the east. The little prince Mbah a Moute did not renew his contract.
The good thing is that there was a wave of reinforcements in the middle of the season, and the Rockets got the offensive kaleidoscope Carmelo Anthony.
The arrival of Cameron has made the Rockets' offensive power stronger than ever to a certain extent.
Last season, when the Rockets lost to the Warriors, it proved one thing.
It is impossible for Durant to be restricted by any defensive player.
No matter how strong the Rockets' forward defense is, it is impossible to limit Durant's scoring.
That being the case, the biggest possibility for the Rockets to beat the Warriors is to find a striker who can match Durant's strength and explode with Durant.
Melo is D'Antoni's new secret weapon.
D'Antoni's idea is to build a strong bombardment team that is completely comparable to the Warriors on the offensive end.
Bombardment is D'Antoni's favorite tactical system.
D'Antoni used this system to coach the Suns and the Lakers respectively.
D'Antoni has been coaching the Suns' bombardment tactics with Nash as the core since 2003.
D'Antoni's bombardment tactics once resounded throughout the league.
In the 2004-05 season, under the leadership of D'Antoni, the Suns reached the Western Conference Finals with a regular season record of 62 wins and 20 losses. D'Antoni also won the league's best head coach that year.
Later, in 2012, D'Antoni became the new coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.
In the old Lakers, he continued to promote his proudest bombardment.
But Kobe, Gasol, and Nash are all aging players with old arms and legs, and they can't keep up with D'Antoni's tactical requirements.
Nurse retired from injury, Kobe ruptured his Achilles tendon, and Howard and the Lakers turned against each other. In fact, they all have a lot to do with D'Antoni.
The Lakers found that hiring D'Antoni was the most failed decision of the Lakers during the F4 period, so they hastily kicked D'Antoni away and announced that the Lakers were entering reconstruction.
Bombardment tactics are the embryonic form of the small ball era.
In the bombardment system, the center is as embarrassing as it was in the small ball era, and it is the least valued point of the team.
Many fans believe that the biggest conflict during the Lakers' F4 period focused on Kobe and Howard.
In fact, the fans were all wrong. What really made Howard desperate for the Lakers was D'Antoni's bombardment tactics.
This set of tactics itself has nothing to do with Howard.
Kobe's refusal to pass the ball to Howard, and Kobe's too many singles are all tactical habits formed naturally under the bombardment system.
Kobe is very willing to train Howard to be the successor of the Lakers, but all this is obviously out of place because of the bombardment.
Howard is definitely the most wronged player scolded in previous years.
