After the first quarter, the Warriors took an 8-point lead with a score of 27 to 19.

The lead in 8 points in a single quarter has become so great that Old Nelson has satisfied.

But unlike Matt Gudica, who was in the commentary seat and was shaking his head and stressing that the Warriors were going to win this game, Old Nelson felt that this advantage was not enough.

Just look at the Rockets who are resting during the holidays. Shuai Tang is making adjustments in a hurry.

For the Rockets, the problem is not something that is so serious that it cannot be solved.

To put it bluntly, Dameng just couldn't get the ball.

Or it is that the ball is too far away, which is not conducive to the performance of the dream.

The Rockets' adjustment is not difficult. Simply put, it is to find a way to send the ball deep inside.

During the break, Tang Shuai made a lot of adjustments in order to find a tactical way to send the ball to the basket with an easy tactical way.

Soon, the holiday break ended.

The second quarter started, and the dream stopped. The Warriors immediately saw the changes of the Rockets.

What surprised the Warriors was that the Rockets' change was not something that others increased their running, tearing up space, and pulling out enough space to pass the ball to Dameng.

Instead, Dameng directly raised the high position, and Dameng even gave Sam Kassel, who came on the bench, a sideways.

"This... the Rockets use Hakeem as a blue-collar work?"

The Warriors were a little confused when they faced Dameng's pick-and-roll cover for the first time.

At this moment, the one who faces the defense of Sam Kassel is Cole who comes on the bench.

Cole's defense is not very good at all, and one-on-one can't stop Sam Kassel or the Rockets starting point guard Kenny Smith.

Like Xiao Chong, he needs Lin Xing or Rodman to wipe his butt when defending.

Now that there is an extra layer of pick-and-roll screen block, he can't keep up even more.

Faced with the Rockets' pick-and-roll attack, Chris Gatlin, who came on the bench, still defended in the penalty area, and Rodman came out.

Rodman knew that Cole couldn't keep up, so he changed defense directly.

Who would have thought that Sam Kassel would only pass the ball directly against Rodman's defense change.

The one who catches the ball is not someone else, it is the big dream.

At this time, he only needs to face Cole's seemingly standing in the position, which is actually the air defense.

After receiving the ball, Dameng leaned against Cole without exerting force.

Just a skillful step, he wiped Cole with a sway.

Then he didn't continue to walk in and directly threw a large open mid-range shot.

Swish—!

With just one ball, the Warriors understood the Rockets' intentions.

"Is this going to grab the Warriors point guard's defensive weakness and hit hard?"

Although it was Kerr who missed this ball, if Kerr was replaced with a bug, the ball would also be leaked.

To put it bluntly, if you dream big and small, it is pure crushing.

In the commentary seat, Matt Gudica shouted: "Let Rudy find a way, she deserves to be the champion coach!"

On the sidelines, Old Nelson spread his hands.

The moment Dameng scored, he thought of a solution—

"Substitution, let Dell prepare, replace Steve on the court, and then let Stam back to point guard."

On the court, the Warriors' offense.

The Rockets' changes are not only on the offensive end, they are taking two-pronged approaches, and they have also made changes on the defensive end.

When Lin Xing held the ball, he discovered—

Not only did Chaki Brown, who was facing him, stared at him, but Charles Jones on one side also stared at him.

Just as he took a step forward and was about to start a breakthrough, Charles Jones directly killed himself.

"The Rockets started to double-team the big one. It seems that they have made up their minds to strangle Lin Xing to death."

On the court, Lin Xing's first reaction was to pass the ball.

He looked for his teammates and found Rodman in the far side of the open space.

But he really couldn't pass the ball because he could not create a direct threat when Rodman's position passed.

At this time, Rodman's presence broke out.

Although the Warriors' regular season Warriors averaged 16.5 points per game, that was made by the Warriors playing against other teams in the regular season, and Lin Xing deliberately fed Rodman Rodman.

If the opponent is not the Rockets, but an offensive team like the Supersonics and Suns.

Rodman will not be an offensive issue. On the contrary, he can perform well in the Warriors' offensive system.

Just like Chris Gatling, he is the king of cakes.

But when the opponent is a defensive team like the Rockets, Spurs, and Knicks, he will definitely be an offensive problem.

Because this kind of opponent is impossible to give Rodman too loose space to eat cake.

This is a prominent example. Rodman stood in a large open space, but there was no threat.

Lin Xing had no choice but to be Kobe himself.

He turned over and jumped into the game with a clamp defense.

Bang!

Nowadays, Lin Xing can occasionally be Kobe.

But most of the time, his strong shots against the clamp defense were still not so accurate.

This ball is not that accurate, and the strong shot hits the iron.

At the basket, Dameng grabbed the rebound.

"The offense and defense bloomed, and the Rockets seemed to have found a feeling at the beginning of the second quarter."

Turning around and the Rockets continued to pick-and-roll.

However, the Warriors made the adjustment to Lin Xing's replacement of defense and control guards first, and Lin Xing's replacement of defense Sam Kassel.

Facing another pick-and-roll from Aliens and Dameng, Lin Xing and Rodman directly switched defenses.

With this defense change, the defense match becomes:

Rodman vs. Sam Kassel, and Lin vs. Damn.

"As a replacement, Stahl faced Hakim, Sam Kassel passed the ball."

"Then now, Hakeem is playing against Stam single."

"After changing, Stadium actually faces Hakim. Is this considered a disguised change to the center? Can it really be played in five positions?"

Matt Gudica seized the opportunity and blew Lin Xing.

Turning around, taking advantage of the time when Da Meng hit Lin Xing on the court, Gudika said:

"But I don't care about Stade's defense. He can defend from No. 1 to No. 4, but defend from No. 5, especially a top No. 5 like Hakim..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang on the court.

Matt Gudica is silent...

But the groom Albert next to him said:

"But Stada defended this ball, he stuck Hakim's turn around,

When Hakim took a step-by-step jump shot, he accurately judged the right position.

With a solid interference, it’s hard for Hakim to score this goal!"

In a word, Lin Xing defended this ball.

Although there is a little gap in strength confrontation, Lin Xing can still withstand it.

The biggest gap is height. If it is at the basket, Dameng can bully Lin Xing by relying on his height.

But not only is this ball not at the basket, but it doesn't even count the middle distance.

Dameng was forced by Lin Xing for a moment, and he almost reached the three-point line if he took a step back.

If you take another step, it will be a pure three-pointer.

Dameng has a mid-range shot, but no three points.

If he can make a goal like two points without interruption, and Lin Xing's strong interference, it is normal that he can't make it.

In the words of Mumbai Albert: "Shi's defense was very good. Not only did he slap Matt in the face, but he also defeated the Rockets."

On the sidelines, Shuai Tang was already frowning.
