v2 Chapter 263: Downwind ball (three / four!)
The offensive side has tactical dominance, and the invisible confrontation on the defensive side is endless.
The physical strength of both sides is huge, and veterans like Bowen and Finley are basically replaced for a little more than half a quarter.
After the first quarter, the Rockets relied on a whistling three-pointer from McGrady to lead the Spurs 29-29.
The Spurs in the playoffs have shown their toughness as before, and the Rockets have really met their opponents.
Back in the second quarter, the players on both sides had a huge physical exhaustion, and both sides expanded the rotation lineup.
On the Spurs side, George Hill, Mason, Bonner, Gooden replaced and Bowen re-entered.
On the Rockets' side are all five substitutes, Sun Yue, Morrow, Artest, Scola and Jordan.
Up to the Rockets' offense, Sun Yue passed the ball to Scola to cope with it. Morrow's outside line got a chance from Jordan's pick-and-roll, Scola dropped the ball and passed it.
Morrow takes the ball.
"Oh!"
With a crisp sound, although a rookie, Morrow's three-pointer was really stable, and he hit it steadily for the first time.
"Follow yourself, pick up your **** ass!" Popovich was obviously unhappy, and now he yelled at the players for a while, and stretched out his hands and even the suit button was almost broken.
Don't be confused by the gentleman's elegant appearance of the old man, it's really fierce. Few coaches in the league are fiercer than him.
It was as if a whip was drawn on the **** of a Spurs player and returned to the offensive end. Hill's three-pointer did not advance, but the rise of Bonner's big **** stuck to Jordan, Gooden pressed Scola to grab the attack Rebounded scoring.
Back on the defensive end, the players were obviously more fierce on the court. Morrow took the opportunity, but the shot was interfered by Bowen, who made the shot, and the ball missed the basket.
Young Jordan wanted to grab the offensive rebound. Gooden couldn't jump, and put him on the ground with a dark elbow.
The referee then whistle and reached out to signal Gutten's foul.
Gooden was still complaining to the referee. At this moment, Artest suddenly rushed up, shoved Gooden, and then sprayed directly in his mouth.
The referee didn't see the elbow. He saw the old churros clearly. At this moment, Jordan hadn't got up yet, and he just opened up.
Gooden was pushed directly by Artest to the bottom line, but he was pushed away by the referee to try to resist.
At this time, the other members of the Rockets also stopped Artestella.
The referee responded in a timely manner, no further conflict erupted on both sides, and Jordan was also helped by the team members from the ground.
The referee discusses in the midfield.
"That's a dirty move, elbow!" Tang Tian walked to the end of the bench and reminded the referee aloud.
The referee did not respond this time. Soon, three people discussed the result.
Gooden made a defensive foul and Artest made a technical foul.
The weather shook his hands, and the scene was a hiss.
"Don, do you want to replace Ron to cool down?" Cole came to remind him at this time.
"No." Tang Tian at this time directly signaled Artest to come over.
Waiting for him, he reached down and lowered Artestra, then lowered his voice and said, "If they still play this set, give me a hard response to them, don't let the referee see."
If the Spurs are going to play dirty, he doesn't mind putting it sideways.
Artest nodded strongly, Bowen's black hands had upset him before.
The game continued, Hill performed a technical free throw and the Rockets' frontcourt ball.
Sun Yue sent the ball in the frontcourt, Artest found a pick-and-roll for Scola after receiving the ball. After breaking the ball, he made a breakthrough to the basket.
Artest's size is the closest to James's, and this breakthrough is also full of momentum.
The Spurs contracted the basket, and at this time, Artest flung the ball to the outside line. Morrow was already standing outside the three-point line.
The ball hits.
"boom!"
However, the shot was shorter, and it popped after reaching the leading edge of the basket.
Gooden was about to receive this defensive rebound. At this moment, Artest shot directly from the oblique side, grabbed the ball into his arms before Gooden, and took the ball directly to the layup.
Gooden wanted to pull him when he saw it, and Artest was already prepared. At this time, his shoulders were hard.
"boom!"
Gooden hadn't pulled it yet, and his chest was elbowed directly.
He grinned in pain, trying to pull homeopathically. Artest had already set himself on him, and the two were entangled.
"Beep! Beep!"
The referee's whistle followed.
Artest had already raised his hands at this time, signaled that he did not foul.
Gooden shoved Artest angrily, trying to throw his fist, and was already pushed away by the referee.
There is no doubt that Guteng was given a technical foul following the hand shake.
Gooden was about to jump, and it was clear that he had hit Artest with an elbow.
But unfortunately the referee only saw Gooden want to throw a punch.
Other Spurs hurried over to pull Gooden to the sidelines.
Tang Tian smiled at this time.
The NBA is all-encompassing, and there must be people who play dirty. The stars are most afraid of this kind of people. If they are not careful, they may be scrapped by the opponent.
But what are the most afraid of dirty people? The scariest thing is to meet someone who is playing horizontally. If you are awkward, you will not play. If you are awful, you will not dare to use dirt.
Morrow went for a technical free throw.
Artest was holding Jordan by the side of the court, pointing at the basket and educating him.
The mouth shape was full of swear words, and it was done like this one by one, it was leading bad young people.
Morrow hit a free throw technically and the Rockets continued to serve the sideline.
The ball arrived in Scola's hand, and continued the free throw line.
Under Artest's empty-cut basket, Scola hits the earth beautifully.
Artest continued to crush Bowen's layup after receiving the ball.
Bowen is 38 years old and has been beaten up so much.
He instinctively stretched his feet to go to the mat.
This foot is hidden and fast. I don't know how many people have suffered before.
But Artest was well prepared for it, and when he saw Bowen lifting his feet, he avoided it, and then his shoulders slammed hard.
"boom!"
Bowen hadn't stepped on his foot yet ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ and was hit by Artest directly and flew out of the bottom line.
Artest then fluttered out of the field.
Two people fell to the ground at the same time.
It happened too fast just now, the referee didn't see it clearly, and he blew a ball out of bounds.
Artest climbed up from the ground, Bowen holding his chest in pain.
James rushed to be a tank, Artest rushed to say that he was also a Hummer!
When he finally managed to be helped by his teammates, he gasped for a while and looked at Artest again, his eyes were very jealous.
When he was knocked over just now, he almost missed it.
Artest went to the bottom line to serve the ball casually, and the discerning people realized that the one he had just thrown out was pretending.
This ball really hits a bit.
