NBA: Being criticized for half a year at the beginning

Tang Yu did not disturb the joyful atmosphere of the players, but leaned against the door to watch everyone celebrate happily.

After waiting for a while, when the players' high emotions subsided, Tang Yu said: "Guys, the game is not over yet, and it is not time to relax. In the second half, we must continue the performance of the first half."

The 15-minute halftime break ended quickly, and the third quarter continued. Nash came up and played a wonderful cooperation with Channing Frye to help the latter hit a three-pointer.

Curry immediately made an answer ball with a super long three-pointer 1 meter away from the three-point line!

Although Curry could not limit Nash, the "Son of the Wind" on the defensive end, he could make Nash suffer on the offensive end, and the scores of the two teams also showed an alternating upward trend.

Gentry's team could not narrow the score gap no matter what method they used.

McGrady continued to be entrusted with important tasks on the bench. After scoring 11 points in the second quarter, he won more playing time for himself.

At 8 minutes and 46 seconds in the third quarter, McGrady showed his excellent form immediately after he came on the court. He broke through Grant Hill and made a layup.

Tang Yu applauded McGrady's performance, but before he finished speaking, Channing Frye made another three-pointer from outside the three-line.

Frye has already made 4 three-pointers. He is a center. Ibaka's defense is not a problem at all. Frye has no way to shoot against the defender. Frye's outside shooting is hot tonight.

Tang Yu pointed at Alian off the court, "Alian, you go to defend the center of the opposite side and replace Sergi. Tell the people on the court not to leave Channing Frye open again."

Tang Yu still made the substitution choice. The three-point shooting rate of 4 out of 6 is terrifying, which shows that Channing Frye's shooting style has been smooth.

In this era of focusing on the inside, what does it mean for a center to make 4 three-pointers in a game?

Although Channing Frye was in hot form, relying on a role player was not enough to defeat the Rockets. Tang Yu's offensive tactics were very meticulous, and he could create good shooting opportunities in almost every round.

Yi Jianlian's appearance made Channing Frye no longer have the opportunity to show himself outside the three-point line. Channing Frye missed three consecutive three-point shots.

Suns coach Gentry quickly replaced him. The Suns also tried to play a one-big and four-small lineup. Stoudemire played as the center and fought the Rockets with fast speed. The number of rounds on both sides was very high.

By the end of the third quarter, the score was almost over 100.

97-93, the Rockets still entered the fourth quarter with a 4-point advantage.

Tang Yu said to the players during the intermission: "Our previous few games were very smooth, and it doesn't look easy tonight. The Suns don't want us to continue our winning streak. We have to strengthen our defensive intensity at the beginning of the fourth quarter."

Then Tang Yu sent a defensive lineup with James Harden as the core, yes, a defensive lineup.

The other four were Beverley, the "Black Bey", Danny Green, the "Iron Lin", Battier and Ibaka.

After the start of the fourth quarter, the Rockets immediately increased the team's defensive intensity, which immediately increased the number of mistakes made by the Suns. Beverley's crazy dog ​​defense made Dudley very annoyed.

In an attack, Beverley was knocked to the ground with an elbow, and the referee immediately called an offensive foul.

Beverley got up and did not choose to entangle with Dudley, but immediately applauded himself to encourage himself.

During Nash's rest period, Harden led the defensive four-man team to widen the gap again, and beat the Suns 9-0 in just 2 minutes. Gentry had no choice but to call a timeout and replace Nash and Stoudemire.

But this time, Nash was very uncomfortable with Beverley's defense after he came on the court, and Beverley's offensive defense also made Master Nash very uncomfortable.

Originally, Nash wanted to use Harden as a breakthrough to find the Rockets' defensive weakness, but the others tried their best to help Harden with assists and backup defense.

At 6 minutes and 12 seconds, the two sides entered the official timeout of the last quarter. The score had reached 118-107, and the Rockets had an 11-point advantage.

Tang Yu replaced Curry to win the game. After returning to full health, Curry broke through Nash and made a low-hand throw.

Then the Rockets' offensive round assisted Harden to score 3+1, and the Rockets led by 17 points.

The Suns had no power to resist and could only surrender.

In the end, the Houston Rockets extinguished the Suns 128-112 away!

The Rockets won 30 consecutive victories, aiming for a full winning streak record of 33 consecutive victories!

Curry and Harden carried the team in the absence of Yao Ming, and the two of them scored 58 points, 9 rebounds and 16 assists.

McGrady also regained his peak self in this game, scoring 17 points, 6 rebounds and 0 turnovers with 6 of 11 shots. Especially the dunk over Stoudemire made everyone see McGrady's determination.Suns player Nash was vomiting in the bathroom at the moment. He was chasing Curry until he vomited.

"Steve, are you okay?" Gentry's assistant coach asked with concern.

"Ugh~~Fuck, that rookie is really a runner. I feel like I ran a marathon, and it was an obstacle course!" Nash vomited and cursed.

Nash not only had to chase Curry all over the court, but also had to face the cover of Rockets players on the way. After the whole game, Nash really couldn't stand it anymore.

After the game, Tang Yu came to the press conference, and every reporter rushed to ask Tang Yu questions.

Tang Yu signaled a reporter to stand up and ask questions.

"Coach Tang, you showed a wonderful defensive lineup in the fourth quarter tonight. Do you have any unique insights on defense?"

"Each of our players has his own characteristics. When we form a whole, there will be unexpected results. For defense, I require quick rotation. Everyone must help teammates quickly fill positions. This is our defensive tactics."

"Coach Tang, the Rockets will have 10 home games in the next 12 games. Are you confident that you can win all of them? If so, your winning streak will reach a terrifying 51 games."

"Our team only focuses on the next game. We will be responsible for every game. We don't consider things that are too far away."

After the interview, Tang Yu returned to the locker room. The players had just taken a shower.

"Brad, you take the team back. We'll see you at the training center tomorrow."

"No problem, boss!"

After saying goodbye to the team, Tang Yu and Taylor Swift took a private plane back to Houston together!
