The Pope of Basketball Community

Yao Ming played 7 minutes, made all 5 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and scored 11 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, and 3 blocks; O'Neal played 12 minutes, made 3 of 7 shots, 2 of 4 free throws, and scored 8 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 block. assists.

In the center data competition, Yao Ming unexpectedly gained the upper hand.

Kobe performed better, with 19 points and 4 assists in a single quarter; Eddie Jones could no longer keep up with his former younger brother, with only 5 points and 1 assist.

Rasheed played the entire quarter and scored 7 points, which was better than the Heat's two blue-collar power forwards.

Yang Rui replaced Yao Ming in advance, not because he committed two fouls, but to allow him to reasonably distribute his energy and play with the bench. Today is Christmas, and fans don’t want to enter garbage time early. Watching the substitute battle, Yang Rui is ready to maximize the star’s offensive power.

In the first quarter, Diop was used to defend O'Neal. Odom hadn't played for a minute. Now it became two stars to lead the team. The other three were Mo Williams, Hoiberg, and Ariza.

When Yao Ming leads the bench, Yang Rui will not let Diaw play. Even if he has two consecutive triple-doubles, he still has to sit on the bench. Because the team no longer needs him to play in the low post, the offensive end overlaps with Yao Ming after he comes out. The three-point difference cannot open up space. On the defensive end, his performance is not as good as Ariza.

Diaw is more suitable for guarding power forwards. He has good strength and can withstand, and can also control the rebound and launch a counterattack. He cannot use his specialty in defending small forwards.

The Heat's substitute small forward is Caron Butler, an all-around fighter, and Ariza is more suitable to match up with him. During team training, Ariza was obviously no match for Kobe Bryant. Defense against Iguodala could reduce efficiency. Iguodala and Butler happen to be of the same type.

The other four are Payton, Rasual Butler, Haslem, and Grant.

The Heat mainly rely on an eight-man rotation, and Stan Van Gundy is not a coach who trusts rookies.

Like his younger brother Jeff Van Gundy, he is extremely dedicated and his only hobby is work. There are reports that Dafan's video editor has a very heavy workload. Dafan always wants to make various videos. He usually watches the videos at home and takes notes when he has nothing to do. ?

In Yang Rui's previous life, Da Fan was better than his younger brother in terms of coaching ability. Now, however, Xiao Fan's coaching ability is better than his elder brother, and his employment is relatively flexible.

Van Gundy did not trust backup point guard Smush Parker and would rather let veteran Payton play more, which was soon proven to be a mistake.

Payton is getting slower and slower, and he is not able to catch up quickly enough after encountering a screen, while Mo Williams is the type who can take a shot after receiving the ball. This resulted in an inside defender having to switch defenders in time. Odom cut from the side and bullied Payton after receiving a pass from Yao Ming.

Mo Williams can also hold the ball and play pick-and-roll with Yao Ming in the middle to get rid of the defender. Grant changes defense very slowly and is easily passed by defenders. The defender attracts the defender to pass to the middle, and Yao picks Haslem. He has a huge height advantage, so he doesn't have to worry about being blocked when taking action.

When Odom gets the ball from the side, Yao Ming can also cut to the low post and catch the ball for a one-on-one.

Four minutes later, the Lakers went on a 16-3 run, and the point difference continued to widen. Yao Ming easily scored 8 points against the short inside man, making 3 of 3 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. Mo Williams hit two three-pointers, and Odom cut through to complete a dunk.

Only veteran Payton of the Heat broke through the high-definition board and scored two points with a layup. Butler fouled and made one of two free throws. The others took turns to hit the iron.

O'Neal looked at it, and the Heat had neither an axis nor space inside. Van Gundy could only call a timeout and replaced two stars, O'Neal and Wade, with Grant and Rasu.

If Rasu can't make a three-pointer, he will be useless on the court. His touch was very bad today. After the substitution, Butler is the only one on the Heat who can make a three-pointer, let alone break the zone defense.

2 minutes later, the Heat replaced Payton and replaced Eddie Jones. Wade played point guard to add a shooting point. This adjustment had no effect. No matter how the opponent passed or screened, the Lakers just stayed close to the penalty area and defended.

Yang Rui's goal is very clear, to deal with O'Neal ruthlessly. The outside players recognize the score and let them shoot.

O'Neal had little opportunity to make a move under tight protection.

He finally caused a foul and missed two free throws. After that, he struggled to push away the two men and scored 2+1, but also missed the extra free throw.

O'Neal was led out of the basket by Kobe's pick-and-roll, and Yao Ming made a free cut to catch the ball and made a foul, and then made a solid 4 free throws.

The most exciting scene of this section comes at 3 minutes and 16 seconds. Kobe missed the mid-range shot due to O'Neal's interference. Yao Ming grabbed the offensive rebound with one hand under the basket, immediately took off a second time, and smashed the ball with his right hand. He missed the basket and knocked Haslem over.

This is a dunk performance that can be selected into the top five goals. Yao Ming showed his toughness.

Yang Rui applauded and cheered with the players on the sidelines.

Yang Rui was very excited and happy for Yao Ming. In the era he traveled through, China's basketball strength had declined drastically. There were no stars who could excel. Only Yao Ming made the world's basketball fans recognize the strength of Chinese players!

Yao Ming was selected by the Rockets and did not have a good record, so he was questioned a lot. Now with the Lakers, with a group of strong teammates, Yao Ming can make up for this regret.

Before halftime, Yao Ming hit two points from the high post on his last attack, leading the Lakers to an 87-40 lead.

If Wade hadn't scored 10 points in a single quarter and his performance was acceptable, the Heat would have been beaten to shame at halftime. Now the Heat are expected to set the record for the largest point difference in NBA history.

Barkley said: "The halftime lead was 47 points. It was not like a game between playoff teams, which was just a one-sided massacre. The Lakers were too accurate from the outside. Only Eddie Jones made a three-pointer for the Heat."

Smith smiled and said: "The Lakers performed exceptionally well on the outside in this quarter. Odom made 2 of 3 three-pointers, Mo Williams made 2 of 4, and Kobe Bryant made 2 of 4. Their overall three-point shooting rate today exceeded 50%. It was a nightmare Christmas Day game for the Heat players."

In the second half, Yang Rui rested Yao Ming, who scored 23 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks. Kobe led the substitutes himself, and his teammates were Damon Jones, Iguodala, Rasheed, and Diop. There were still two starters on the court.

Yang Rui did not want to save face for the Heat, but wanted to let Diop consume O'Neal's physical strength first, and then send Yao Ming to play in the second half to ensure scoring efficiency.

Diop used his only specialty, acting as a human shield to resist O'Neal, pushing him outside the penalty area and shooting away from the basket. His teammates would double-team him from the side at any time.

Kobe sneaked in again and again, and finally stole O'Neal once. This is not the point. The point is that people have seen Wade's weaknesses. Kobe double-teamed and the ball was distributed. Wade was open and could not shoot three-pointers. Facing the zone defense, he also worked hard. Breaking to the basket.

Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, Wade prefers to travel to the mountains with tigers. Wade made a sharp breakthrough and scored 11 points in a single quarter, but his role in the system was limited.

The Lakers entered the final quarter with a score of 112 to 70, and only scored 25 points, 12 of which were scored by Kobe. He scored 40 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists in 30 minutes of playing. His statistics crushed O'Neal.

O'Neal scored 18 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists. The data was good, but there was no dominance at all.

Yao Ming played 5 minutes in this quarter and scored 6 points and 3 rebounds, for a total of 29 points and 11 rebounds.

Being 42 points behind was impossible to reverse. Van Gundy considered sending a substitute in the final quarter and gave up the game.

What made everyone in the Heat collapse was that in the final quarter, Yao Ming and Odom came on the court, as well as outsiders Mo Williams, Hoiberg, and Ariza.

On Christmas Eve, the Lakers are going to kill everyone!
