The Godfather of Basketball

Hayes proved that he has a good passing ability in summer league, but Van Gundy is more inclined to use Dikembe Mutombo who is better defensively.

In the first round of offense after coming off the bench, Wells' strong attack at the basket was slapped and slapped by Martin.

After the block, Martin looked very excited and roared at Wells.

Seeing that Martin's body was a little timid, Wells turned around and retreated directly.

This scene caused a burst of restlessness among the fans.

In the Nuggets' offense, Martin went to the frontcourt and played an off-ball pick-and-roll with Kleiza. After switching to Wells to defend himself, he directly asked for the ball to sit and hit. Adams dress up to score.

After scoring, he gave Wells a fierce glare.

Wells and Martin looked at each other, then flinched back.

Tang Tian also frowned slightly at this time.

Bunch Wells played well against the Spurs in the first round of the Kings playoffs last season. A fat contract of 36 million, but this guy seems to have a high opinion of himself, and has always hoped to sit on the ground and raise the price. In the end, the Kings gave up the contract extension and had to turn around and sign a 2-year 5 million contract with the Rockets.

Tang Tian was deeply impressed by this matter at the time. The domestic media at the time described the signing as "robbery", and countless fans expected him to become the "third giant" next to Yao Mai.

But since Wells entered the training camp, Tang Tian noticed that his weight had skyrocketed. This guy probably went crazy during the offseason.

Tang Tian originally expected that his arrival would change his fate, but the two rounds just now disappointed him.

The spirit most needed for playing, and the offseason contract matters, seemed to make Wells lose all spirit.

The Rockets' offense, Hyde missed a three-pointer from the outside, Wells grabbed an offensive rebound, but missed a strong move, and the rebound was accepted by Martin.

Returning to the Nuggets' offensive round, Martin took the ball and took the initiative to find Kleiza for a pick-and-roll, and once again met Wells' defense.

This is Martin's way of playing. When he meets someone weaker than himself, he will keep hitting you until he blows you up.

After Wells gained weight, his movement speed dropped drastically. He was originally a swinging forward and guard, and he seemed to be unable to keep up with Martin's speed.

In the end, Martin missed a layup and caused a foul by Wells, giving him a 2+1 chance.

After Martin scored the goal, he slapped his chest vigorously and swears at Wells in American style.

There were boos at the scene, Van Gundy also frowned, got up and asked Alston to replace Wells.

However, Wells himself had an indifferent attitude. He returned to the bench and sat down with his big butt, and chatted with Snyder next to him.

Tang Tian looked at it and shook his head, this Wells must have been out of his plan.

The game continued on the field. After Martin made a hit and added a penalty, he personally played a wave of 5-0 attacks, reducing the score to 6 points.

The Rockets' offense, Hyde took advantage of Battier's cover to reach the basket and scored a layup, finally breaking the Rockets' scoring drought.

Looking back, Martin is playing aggressively, even though Wells is off the court, and now he is asking for the ball in the low post, and he is playing singles with his back against Millsap.

Millsap is only three centimeters taller than Wells, and Martin, who is 2.06 meters tall, is also at a disadvantage in height.

Martin held the ball and pushed back hard, trying to force Millsap with strength and weight, but he soon found that the short rookie he was facing was full of strength.

After seeing Wells' timidity and Millsap's toughness, the fans couldn't help but cheer for the team's rookie at the moment.

"Defend! Defend!"

Fans cheered at the Toyota Center.

Martin didn't go in with the top, and Miller was already shouting on the outside to pass the ball out and reorganize.

But being held back by a rookie, Martin was upset at the moment. He ignored Miller and turned right, trying to eat Millsap with speed like he did when he hit Wells before.

He turned and stepped for a layup.

But at the moment of his shot.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Millsap jumped up from the side, and with his anticipation and excellent wingspan, he slapped his shot directly off the court.

The audience paused, and then exploded in an instant.

This fight is too tough!

Millsap was also very excited after blocking the shot, and slapped his chest twice vigorously.

The corner of Martin's mouth was murmuring, and he dragged the referee to complain about the thug just now, but the referee whistled once to warn him.

This was in 2006. If it was the era when Tang Tian was here, Martin would definitely eat T.

Tang Tian nodded at this time. He really saw the right person. In terms of personal ability alone, the current Millsap is probably not as strong as Wells, but Millsap is not a star and a half higher in the spirit of playing. .

The Nuggets sent the ball out of bounds, Miller passed the ball to Kleiza, Kleiza's breakthrough was successfully defended by Battier, and the rebound was won by Dikembe Mutombo.

Back to the Rockets' offense, Alston organized his teammates to run on the outside.

Hyde was the sixth man of the Rockets. At this time, the Rockets were running tactics for him, but after reaching the frontcourt, Millsap actually dropped down, kicked Martin directly, and then reached out for the ball.

He actually wanted to hit Martin in the low post!

The emotions of the fans at the scene were immediately aroused, and cheers came one after another.

"Haha, this rookie is really interesting." Barkley couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene, but there was obvious appreciation in his smile.

A newborn rookie who is not afraid of tigers is always attractive.

Alston felt the reaction around him, motioned his teammates to open up space, and then handed the ball in.

Martin's complexion changed in a flash. It was already embarrassing enough to be taken aback just now, but now he is going to be beaten forcibly.

What he was trying to do was to pay Millsap a big hot pot in return.

After Millsap took the ball, his center of gravity sank, and then he directly pushed in.

"boom!"

The two confronted each other for a while, and the result was shocking. Martin was forced to take a big step forward!

The emotions of the fans at the scene were immediately lifted, and many people stood up from their seats excitedly.

Regardless of whether the goal can be scored in the end, Millsap's momentum has been fully displayed!
