The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 147 The Third Giant (Part 2) (3/5!)

The basketball was like a shell fired from the chamber, passing straight through the entire half court, crossing the gap between Millsap and Peja, and directly into Pietrus' hands.

Pietrus received the ball with a wide three-pointer and made a direct three-pointer.

"Shua!"

Hands up and down, hit a three-pointer.

The scene cheered loudly.

Tang Tian nodded at this moment.

Unlike Paul, although he is also a point guard, Billups does not have such a strong personal offensive ability as Paul, so his passing needs precise judgment to be realized. In other words, Billups can generally assist the ball , are the kind of ball that can change the offense of the round.

5 to 2, Billups made two precise passes to help the Rockets take the lead in the opening game.

For the Hornets' offense, Paul asked West for a pick-and-roll this time, split the ball and divided West, who faced Billups and shot before Pietrus double-teamed.

"Shua!"

West's shot hits, and his touch looks good.

The Rockets' offense was still the same tactic. After Peterson switched to Billups, he took a step back.

He was really bitter. He was beaten badly by McGrady. He thought it would be better if McGrady was absent, but Billups on the other side was obviously not good.

Seeing Peterson's choice, Billups directly chose a three-pointer.

Peterson made a throw, but was out of reach.

"Shua!"

Billups' three-pointer went through the net.

"Chauncey~~ Billups!!" The live DJ shouted Billups' name.

"Mr.big, I almost forgot about him!" Brin in the commentary booth shouted.

"Yes, we all forgot that when Yao and T-mac played well, he was a green leaf, but now that T-mac is absent, he stands up suddenly, he is only 30 years old, this is the golden age of a point guard !” Jackson was also full of emotion, as a point guard, he knew Billups far more than the average person.

Because of his style of play and weak personal offensive ability, Billups' career has been underestimated, and he is destined to be underestimated in the future, but only in the game can we find out how good a player he is.

With 2 assists and 1 3-pointer, from the second passer to the main attack point, Billups switched seamlessly.

For the Hornets' offense, Paul and West played the pick-and-roll again, and then divided West after breaking the ball.

Pietrus double-teamed the ball very quickly, and West had no chance to make a move after receiving the ball.

However, West's vision on the field is good, and the ball is directly assigned to Peterson on the outside.

An open three-point opportunity.

"boom!"

Peterson didn't grasp it, and missed the basket with a three-pointer.

He waved his hand depressed.

Scott stretched his hand to his forehead at halftime, shaking his head helplessly.

It's rare for the Hornets to have such a good shot.

But in fact, this is not his fault. As a 3D player, he was blasted by McGrady for 3 games in a row. McGrady was finally absent, and he was teased by Billups for a while. A normal person will have psychological fluctuations. If there is a problem, it is very difficult to maintain the feel.

In the offense of the Rockets, Billups asked Peterson to play a pick-and-roll. Peterson's face was black, and this time he pressed forward again.

Billups made another precise change of direction to accelerate, and Peterson's old arms and legs couldn't keep up.

Pietrus took the ball to the basket.

West came to help defend, but the rest of the Hornets dared not move.

Billups makes a pass from behind to Millsap.

West had been dunked by Millsap before, and he was on guard in his heart, so he directly returned it.

But at the moment he recovered, Billups pulled the ball back and scored with a light low-handed layup.

"Oh my God!" Brin exclaimed in the commentary booth, and Billups actually played West!

Tang Tian also laughed at this moment.

Iverson and Rondo were more impressed by the fake fax shots behind the fans, but in fact, this is also very simple for Billups.

10 to 4, the Rockets continued to widen the point difference.

With 5 points and 2 assists, Billups' performance is completely worthy of the opposite Paul.

The Hornets' offense, Peterson went to the frontcourt and suddenly took the initiative to pick and roll Paul. After breaking the ball, he took Billups to the high position on the right wing, and then directly pressed Billups to reach out for the ball.

This is a tactic outside the arrangement, but Peterson's position is very firm.

He also wants to save face!

Although he is old, but in the Raptors before, he also won the NCAA championship, was the core of the Raptors, and had a season average of 16+ players!

Paul puts the ball in.

Although the status of the team is different, Peterson is the boss in the locker room, and his performance in the regular season and the first round is not bad.

Peterson received the ball and directly opened the arch.

For the forwards and guards of this era, low-post backs are a must-have skill. Peterson is much taller and heavier than Billups, so he is still very confident in this back-up.

At this time, the Hornets also opened up space for other players on the court.

"Bang! Bang!"

The two had a fierce physical confrontation, and Peterson found an opportunity, ready to turn around with another blow.

But at the moment when he exerted his strength, he suddenly felt a light behind him, and his center of gravity was uncontrollable and he fell back directly.

There was an exclamation at the scene.

At the moment when Peterson exerted his strength, Billups directly made a "removal of the bench" action, which directly made Peterson lose his focus, and the whole person sat on the ground and fell on his back.

Peterson fell and lost control of the ball in his hands.

And at the moment he lost control, Billups rushed out from the side, grabbed the ball directly, and then went straight forward for a fast break.

Paul was still on the outside at this time, seeing Billups fast break, he went directly to defend.

Billups controlled the ball very steadily, basically controlling Paul on his non-dribbler side, and did not give the latter a chance to steal easily.

At this time, the players on both sides were half a beat behind, and they all started running towards the Hornets' backcourt.

Billups rushed to the three-point line, turned his head and glanced at Pietrus, who was two meters away from his right, and then suddenly jumped up, chasing and shooting a three-pointer.

This came so suddenly that Paul didn't expect it at all. It was too late for him to jump up and try to interfere.

"Shua!"

Billups's chasing three-pointer hit again!

13 to 4, the Rockets' lead came to 9 points!

Scott held up his hand and called a timeout.

"Unbelievable, this is the best game Chauncey has played in joining the Rockets!" Brin couldn't stand the emotion at this time.

"This is Mr.big. When you don't need him, he has a low sense of presence, but when you need him, he can stand up immediately. In fact, many fans this season said that the Rockets are still Yao and T-mac. team, but I want to say that Chauncey deserves to be the third giant of the Rockets!" Jackson did not hesitate to praise.
