Pau Gasol became more concerned about picking up fouls and defending the pick-and-roll, which only encouraged Bosh to seek confrontation, actively engaging in pick-and-roll offense and continuously collaborating with Roy, attacking him relentlessly.
LeBron tried double-teaming Roy, as well as switching defensive assignments and squeezing through screens, but like calling out individuals, Roy's style was different from Yu Fei's.
Every step Yu Fei took was aggressive, while Roy seemed to lack aggression, moving slowly, relying purely on his sense of rhythm, but he could ensure that during a pick-and-roll he passed the ball to the right person, and could suddenly drive towards the basket when his opponents completely ignored him.
The only thing limiting him was the lack of conditioning due to being away from the game for a long time.
A minute before the end of the first half, Roy felt that familiar sense of running on fumes.
