Chapter 285
It's still the Rockets' offensive possession, but it's time to pay attention to the offense.
Da Yao was almost trapped in the opponent's encirclement, and he couldn't reach out to catch the ball at all.
Mobley could only give the ball in Cato's direction, and Cato blew the whistle before Cato could make a shot.
It was a fatal mistake
! Rayong rushed into the interior after half-court in the face of Witherspoon and Jim Jackson's tough defense, spun and shot, hit the board!
Very resolute, very tough.
Rayong didn't give the Rockets any more chances, and in the next one minute and seven seconds, he scored 9 points in a row, directly taking away the suspense of the game.
Although the Rockets' Da Yao also managed to score four free throws, it had no impact on the game itself.
109-117, the defending champion successfully defeated the Houston Rockets with Da Yao in overtime.
Da Yao scored 34 points and 12 rebounds, and he played an astonishing 41 minutes in this game, and he didn't rest for a minute in overtime.
In the end, there were two shots at the top of the arc, and you could clearly feel his lack of physical strength, and his movements were deformed when he shot.
On Philadelphia's sideline, Rayong's sideline is still bursting, with a triple-double of 36 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds.
And on the defensive end, he sent 5 blocks, and he was full of energy for the whole game.
Van Horn also has good statistics of 19 points and 8 rebounds, and has become the best helper around him.
After the All-Star break, the trade door opened, and each team made targeted reinforcements.
The Pistons managed to get the Trail Blazers, All-Star and violent power forward Rasheed Wallace in their competition with the Nets and the New York Knicks.
And Philadelphia got involved, sending Coleman to the Trail Blazers, acquiring Daco Milicic from the Pistons, and also sending a second-round pick.
It's a win-win deal, as the Pistons' acquisition of Rasheed Wallace has further reduced Milicic's playing time, and getting a draft pick and some cash frees up some salary space to further strengthen the small forward position off the bench.
However, the Miami Heat and the Phoenix Suns, who have been coveting the Lakers' O'Neal, have eaten behind closed doors.
The Lakers still plan to talk about it after this season, no matter how unhappy O'Neal and Kobe Bryant are with each other, Bass personally went down as a lobbyist, betting on the two to start the conversation at a dinner table.
Seeing that there was no new stuff to hype up between Kobe Bryant and O'Neal, the media with a keen sense of smell took the opportunity to burn the topic to another big forward, Karl Malone.
There was even a local media outlet that vividly described the scene of Marlon teasing Vanessa on the sidelines.
Malone was so "comfortable" in his words, and even compared Vanessa to the prey on the prairie, and declared that he was the best hunter, and put his hand into the crotch of his pants to gesture that he had a "bigger guy",
which made the young and vigorous
Kobe angry! Directly in the locker room, he was directly mad at Marlon, if it wasn't for everyone to set the two apart in time, Kobe Bryant might have suffered a big loss!
After more than a dozen trials after getting Milicic, the Philadelphia 76ers finally decisively promoted Milicic to the starting line in the final stage of the regular season and ended the regular season with a wave of consecutive wins.
It is worth mentioning that in the last 19 games, when Milicic was promoted to the starting position, the Serbian young man can get a quasi-double-double of 13.4 points and 9.2 rebounds in an average of 33 minutes per game, and happily he can also deliver 4.6 assists per game, while also recording 1.7 blocks.
Milicic has given a glimpse of the Grizzlies' Pau Gasol, who can score under the basket himself and use the ball as an offensive initiation point to help the team and share the playmaking pressure of Rayong.
The term waste to treasure is really not suitable for him, because the young man is not wasted in the first place, but is just refrigerated by individual coaches.
Many professional media people said that once they enter the playoffs, when Rayong and Iverson are caught in the bag, Daco Milicic's stats may increase further, and he will have more opportunities.
The Philadelphia 76ers finished with a 63-19 record as the deserved No. 1 in the East (and No. 1 in the league), followed by the Indiana Pacers and the New Jersey Nets.
The 54-28 Detroit Pistons were squeezed into fourth place, with the Pistons facing the Miami Heat, who are fifth
in the East, in the first round, while the Boston Celtics took out the Cleveland Cavaliers led by LeBron James, the chosen one,
in the final direct conversation.
What's even more ironic is that former Cavaliers boss Ricky Davis, who has been traded to the Boston Celtics, played well in this game, hitting 16 of 24 shots, 3-of-6 three-pointers, 7-of-7 free throws, and scoring a season-high 42 points, successfully stepping on his old club.
"Honestly, it's like a dream, buddy, it's really like a dream, I always thought they picked LeBron to let him help me! You know, some things are out of my control.
After the game, Ricky Davis shook his head again at the camera, constantly spreading his hands.
As a result, the 76ers will face the Boston Celtics, who have struggled extremely well this year, in the first round.
Compared with the disparity in strength in the east, the battle in the west is much more intense, and it was not until the last game that the final ranking was determined.
The 58-24 Minnesota Timberwolves rushed to the top of the standings, followed by the 56-26 and 57-25 Spurs.
Further down are the Kings, the Mavericks, the Grizzlies
, the Rockets and the Nuggets! The Houston Rockets, who are 45-37, are ranked seventh in the West!
And the Battle of the Lake of Fire has also been held to the horizon by many media, and even crushed the Bull and Horse War.
There's no way, Da Yao is a walking cash cow, and where there is him, there will be attention.
The heat here in Philadelphia is not low.
Celtics' Paul Pierce shouted to the media: "This year we are the most underrated, we have a lot of attackers in the team, and we are also the deepest team in the league, it doesn't matter who is opposite us here!"
But the Celtics' weak interior line still makes the media not interested.
An aging Weinbeck plus a 2.13 second-round pick Mark Blunt?
