The Nuggets hit the bull's-eye in the frontcourt again, and this time the Rockets went around the pick-and-roll in advance.

It is still very difficult to fight this basic tactic all the way to the end.

Iverson gave the ball back to Lin Ying, and Lin Ying responded by hitting the top of the key.

Martin and Nene set up pick-and-rolls, one on the baseline and the other in the high post. Iverson and Smith moved around the pick-and-roll.

The tactics are not complicated and are as basic as the previous horns.

It depends on the player's ability to run the ball and Lin Ying's timing of passing the ball.

Lin Ying passed the ball to Smith who came out of the screen on Nene's side.

Smith caught an open shot.

"Whoa!"

His knife is still there!

And Lin Ying's judgment is also very accurate.

Nene's pick-and-roll was of high quality. McGrady was blocked and Smith was basically free.

This is also the biggest problem for this Rockets team. After Yao Ming gained weight and was unable to get out of the pick-and-roll, the defensive end had to depend on the opponent's touch.

The Jazz Tenke Rockets are also here.

But looking back, Yao Ming returned the favor, assisting Tracy McGrady in a series of high positions, causing Lin Ying to commit a defensive foul.

Lin Ying was helpless with this goal. He had given enough defensive pressure, but in the end it was still a close call.

When Kobe Bryant said McGrady was the only player he didn't know how to guard, he wasn't just saying it politely.

Because Tracy McGrady is said to be a shooting guard, but he is more like a 2.03 meter point guard, with a high first step, quick agility, high flexibility and full stretch.

The talent ceiling for outside players is really not exaggerated.

McGrady made two free throws and the score was tied again.

The situation on the field was extremely anxious.

By this time, a large number of fans had already stood up.

The competition is too fierce and I can’t sit still!

And let Anthony fight in this situation. If he can win in the end, it will be exciting to think about it!

Lin Ying continued to provide support from a high position.

Tracy McGrady worked beautifully around the pick-and-roll this time, and Battier kept waving his hands to interfere with Lin Ying's passing route.

Seeing that there was no chance, Lin Ying motioned for Iverson to come out. After passing the ball, he directly motioned for Nene to pull out and play a pick-and-roll for Iverson.

In fact, Lin Ying's idea is the same whether it is the horn tactics, high-position support, or direct pick-and-roll, and he cannot get out of Yao Ming.

Yao Ming: Are you suitable?

Of course, just like the previous high-post support, whether the tactics can work depends on the quality of the pick-and-roll and the Rockets' defensive quality.

Alstom didn’t go around it!

Iverson misplaced the ball and faced Yao Ming. Yao Ming jumped out early and used his body to block Iverson's pass to the basket.

At this moment, Lin Ying, who was originally lurking in the corner, was cutting into the basket!

According to Iverson's usual playing habits, at this time he must have dribbled the ball out again and started a small attack.

But when he saw Lin Ying cutting in, he gave the ball directly to him.

Then, Lin Ying didn't hit the ball after getting it, but threw the ball over the basket!

After the pick-and-roll, the other side had already forgotten about the basket and was just one step away from the basket.

This is a habit of his. He made such a goal in the first game against the Lakers.

After seeing the ball, he jumped up and was just above the basket when he caught the ball.

"Bang!"

The Brazilian beast came out of the cage and made a powerful and heavy two-handed alley-oop!

The emotions of the Denver fans at the scene were directly ignited!

As mentioned before, this Nuggets team has Anthony, Iverson, Martin, and Smith, and they are top-notch talents.

But they used to work independently, and there was no chemical reaction at all.

This is particularly evident during positional warfare.

Karl is good at defensive counterattack tactics, but he is really not very good at positional warfare.

But now, Lin Ying, the catalyst, has appeared, directly causing them to have a chemical reaction!

Or put another way.

Denver is a peach orchard, where three brothers Anthony, Iverson and Smith live.

Because the eldest brother Anthony has a high prestige, he also has a group of fierce generals who have defected to him.

But this group of people just couldn't make a name for themselves. They were chased around the map every day and were almost broken up.

Until one day, they were guided by fate to a small green house.

That day, the matryoshka process was as twists and turns as three visits to the thatched cottage, and finally they got a handsome man with a feather fan and silk scarf.

I am Lin Ying, courtesy name Kong Ming!

After a series of trials and a shocking performance in San Antonio, this handsome man won the hearts of the brothers in Denver.

So a story called "Take You Flying" unfolded, and from then on they began their journey to the top with promotions and salary increases to marry Bai Fumei!

The reality that we have to admit is that with Lin Ying's organization and guidance, the Nuggets finally realized their talent tonight.

And after Smith brought the knife, he filled the scoring gap in Anthony's absence.

Tonight, it's going to set Denver on fire!

The further the game goes, the more beneficial it will be for the Nuggets.

Because the Rockets also have another disadvantage, physical fitness.

Adelman's tactical level is not bad, and his Princeton is very smooth.

Including his ability to adjust on the spot is not weak either.

But his rotation was really bad.

The Rockets are now rich in personnel. As for the backup center, Uncle Mu is still there, Hayes also plays in the fourth and fifth positions, and even Scola can fill the fifth position for a period of time.

But Adelman is fucking Yao Ming to death!

When Van Gundy was coaching, he was well aware of Yao Ming's physical disadvantages after gaining weight, and usually limited Yao Ming's playing time to about 32 minutes.

But this season, Alderman gave Yao Ming an average of 40 minutes per game.

At the beginning of the season, we couldn't see any big impact, but it was indeed a big test for Yao Ming's physical fitness.

As fans joked:

A historical center in the first quarter, an All-Star center in the second quarter, an All-Star center in the third quarter, a center in the fourth quarter...

After the fight, Yao Ming really couldn't run anymore.

Then the Nuggets continued to play fast under the command of Lin Ying.

Yao Ming: I decided to blacklist you!

After a stalemate, the Nuggets got some leads.

33 seconds before the end, McGrady missed the key three-point shot that tied the score.

30 seconds before the end, Smith received a long pass from Lin Ying from the backcourt, chased and hit his seventh and final three-pointer of the night.

102 to 96!

This three-pointer also took away the final suspense of the game.

The moment the final whistle blew, all the Nuggets players rushed to Lin Ying and shouted at him.

He had 7 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the half, and finished the game with 14 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists!

Lin Ying got the first triple-double of his career!

Under his leadership, Smith scored 28 points, Iverson had 21 points and 5 assists, Nene had 16 points and 10 rebounds, and Martin had 11 points and 7 rebounds.

The whole team scored in double figures with 5 points!

The Nuggets played team basketball! Can you believe it?!

Of course, the most important thing is that they defeated the Rockets, the No. 1 team in the Western Conference!
Chapter completed!
