Gan Guoyang also caught the ball in the low post, and as soon as he had it, the Rockets double-teamed him. Gan Guoyang passed the ball to Kobe in the middle. Kobe caught it and took a direct mid-range jump shot.
The ball clanged off the front of the rim, missing.
But Gan Guoyang slipped under the basket, tipping the ball back into the hoop before the Rockets players could react.
Then, Wei Bo ran around a screen, caught the ball at the elbow, and took a direct mid-range shot, but he missed as well.
Wei Bo's shot arc was a bit flat, and he occasionally took some wild shots, indicating that his consistency needed improvement.
Gan Guoyang easily grabbed the rebound, dribbled past half-court himself, drew the defense in, and then passed to Kobe.
Kobe, following instructions, made a quick move at the defender's right, dribbled to break through, and faced the help defense for a sudden stop shot.
Still missed!
