"Keep patience!" Tang Tian said aloud to the team members when he saw some frustration on the faces.

Nowitzki feels hot, but with the intensity of the playoffs, the probability of a whole game is not high.

The Rockets attacked, Yao Ming continued to play inside, Dampier had a foul and was afraid to reach out. Yao Ming also rebounded under the ball.

The Rockets don't have much to do with Nowitzki, but looking back, the Mavericks don't have much to do with Yao Ming.

Yi Jianlian has a good sense of the ball and has not lost his position.

Nowitzki took the shot against Yi Jianlian's defense after receiving the ball.

"boom!"

The ball slammed onto the rebound and flew into the basket.

Three points, come back!

Nowitzki opened with 10 points in a row!

This hand is flaming up directly!

If no adjustments are made, the Rockets may be killed by the old driver.

Billups advanced to the frontcourt, and the Mavericks greeted Yao Ming at this time, and began to use forward and interfere with the pass to limit Yao Ming's reception.

Carlisle's tactical level is still very good.

"Oh!"

A crisp sound.

The goal is beautiful and the shot is more beautiful.

It is also with his play that the Mavericks played a 57-56 with the Rockets in the half, leading the Rockets by 1 point.

The fans at the scene were excited, but Tang Tian's expression was still relaxed.

Let Nowitzki play halftime, Carlisle was tactically helpless and was forced to an end.

"Rick, I'm sorry."

When returning from the midfield, Tang Tian glanced at Carlisle, who frowned next half, and said silently.

Back in the second half, the Rockets made adjustments to the lineup, Artest directly replaced Yi Jianlian.

At the beginning, Billups went to the frontcourt and handed the ball to McGrady. McGrady greeted Yao Ming for a high pick-and-roll.

"Oh!"

This time he seized the opportunity and three-pointed into the net.

The Mavericks attacked, Kidd also looked for Nowitzki, Nowitzki continued the hot feel of the first half, turned back and advanced.

Billups held the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to McGrady.

McGrady asked Yao Ming for a pick-and-roll, but this time he went out after removing the ball.

"boom!"

The goal was not scored, but Yao Ming only covered the sky, grabbed offensive rebounds and scored directly.

The Rockets still push the fast break in the fourth line.

The Mavericks struggled to retreat, but at this moment, Nowitzki stumbled himself, and the whole man fell from the midfield to the back three.

Artest scored a layup in the chaos.

Carlisle walked around the sidelines at this time, looking a little anxious.

As a tactical master, he soon realized what Tang Tian had to do, speed up, fight back, and speed up the offensive and defensive transition.

As he did in the first two games, the difference is that Tang Tian put this into the time slot to play.

And he also knew what the purpose of Tang Tian was.

Nowitzki.

Because of the gap in strength, he had to let Nowitzki spend more time, which did work, but spending more time also meant more physical exertion. Nowitzki's fall to the ground has been very Explain the problem.

The game on the field continues.

Kidd wants to keep the rhythm down, but the Rockets' defense is tight and Howard has another open three-pointer.

"boom!"

Howard shot or not to advance ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ After Shane Battier grabbed a defensive rebound, the Rockets still made a fast break and regained their rhythm.

Carlisle sighed helplessly at this moment.

Tang Tian's opponent is too scary. Even if the strength has an absolute advantage, he still thoroughly studies the Mavericks.

Since the playoffs, Howard shot only 20% of his three-pointers. For a team's third scoring point, most coaches may not pay attention to details, but Tang Tian is now grabbing.

Carlisle did not dare to replace Nowitzki, but after the Rockets speeded up, the difference was still visible to the naked eye.

By the end of the third quarter, the Rockets had unknowingly extended their lead to 15 points.

The fans at the scene were a little embarrassed.

At halftime they still dreamed about a bright future, but the Rockets turned around and gave them the cruelest reality.
