Chapter 669: Passing with a Smile and the First Person on Active Duty
Objectively speaking, the second quarter of the Rockets played very well. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the face of Embarrassment's reasonable score and Ruan Erniu's desperate three-point arc, the Rockets were able to withstand the pressure, insist that you hit yours, I hit mine, and always maintained a good rhythm at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and it was not easy to let the game be spent in advance.
The current dilemma of the Rockets is that the focus of the outside defense is not clear, and the embarrassment has become the central axis of conduction, and he is not reluctant to shoot at all, and the offensive efficiency is scary.
Ruan Erniu fully stretched the inside line, and the feeling came, shooting within 20 feet as if he had no face, the problem is that he can score.
The explosive play of the Hawks twin stars made the opponent extremely depressed, and the Rockets were able to come up with a countermeasure, which became the biggest attraction in the second half.
At the beginning of the third quarter of the game, the Rockets possessed the ball, and Da Yao received the ball at 15 feet, faced Ruan Erniu's defense, and hit a 2-pointer.
Looking back, Ruan Erniu, who was full of three-point hands, took two steps outside the three-point line and shot directly after receiving a pass from Embarrassment, and Yao Ming, who had already stood at the free throw line, still failed to save.
"Brush!"
The wild cow has gone crazy, and if he commits mad cow disease, he will become like this at most.
Yao Ming ran to the front court and yelled at Erniu: "You are so awesome, why don't you shoot in the LOGO area?"
Ruan Erniu smiled: "You think I'm stupid!"
At this time, I'm afraid no one would have thought that someone would really be able to score in the LOGO area if someone feels it.
The Rockets failed to find a proper defensive strategy in the third quarter, but the Texas powerhouse dared to fight for his life.
Adelman made the most helpless and wise choice of the game, replacing Scola and Artest, replacing Brian Cook and Weaver, anyway, he couldn't prevent it, so it was better to fight for a three-point shot.
I have to say that there is no way to do it, in fact, it is the best way.
Rockets fans had the privilege of watching the three-point rain together in the second half.
Breakouts, balls, three-pointers;
low post, ball, three-pointer;
Passing, passing, three-pointers......
Nguyen Erniu is still outstanding, but the Hawks' overall three-point game is no better than that of the Rockets.
At the end of the third quarter, the two sides played 97-86, and the Rockets went from 16 points behind to 11 points behind, which was not enough for them to see the dawn of victory, but it always gave them a little hope in the dark night.
Texas Xiaoqiang stubbornly dragged the suspense of the game to the last quarter, and while the team's strength was at the peak, they still managed to fight to the end.
Yao Ming scored 10 points in this quarter, shooting 3-of-4 from the field and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line.
Among them, after winning the frontcourt rebound, Ruan Erniu was dunked and played a wonderful performance of 2+1.
Regardless, both of the Celestial Empire's superstars have shown world-class interior strength.
This NBA Finals may become a matchup of the century that fans of the Celestial Empire talk about for a long time to come.
In the final quarter of the game, the two sides quickly strangled together.
Fouls, shoves, timeouts, and the game becomes fit-in-and-a-start. Both sides need to complete the attack and defense in the fierce physical contact again and again.
It was still the Rockets who spearheaded the attack, after all, they were still behind by more than double digits.
Brent White can fly when he is young * Barry is particularly good on the offensive end, the veteran who switched from the Spurs to the Rockets, first hit a three-pointer from the outside, and then the old man talked about the boyhood, holding the ball into the interior, and playing 2+1 against the defense of the lunar eclipse.
Of course, one old Barry wasn't enough, and Brooks stepped up again.
Little Black Bean didn't play very well in this game under the care of Bibby and Dragic, but in the final quarter, when the team was in urgent need of points, he still suddenly resurrected like a flea, and hit two life-killing three-pointers in a row against defenders.
At this point, the Hawks' lead was reduced to just four points, and Woodson had to call a timeout.
"Calm down, guard against every attack, they can't always be on target......"
Woodson doesn't arrange any specific tactics anymore, and now that it is arranged, the players may not be able to listen to it, and sometimes, it is up to the players themselves to adjust and deal with it.
On the offensive end of the Eagles, Ruan Erniu held the ball in a high position and passed the ball to the hands of the embarrassed Sen who was required by the horn position.
In this game, Embarrassment is focusing more on assists and defense, and his presence on the offensive end has decreased significantly, but this does not mean that Joe alone has no dominance in the final quarter.
Half-turned, swayed, broke through with the ball, changed direction, and then swayed, Artest, who had a passionate kiss with Embarrassment in the last game, lived like an abandoned chick, with an unstable foothold on his left foot, and was actually directly kneeled in front of Embarrassment.
Embarrassed Sen took advantage of the situation to jump out and hit a solid shot, and then a confident smile appeared on his cold face, and he turned away.
Atai stood up as quickly as possible, but this action of bending his knees and bowing still stayed in the cameras of various media.
Coupled with yesterday's kiss, this seems to have become a breakup scene for a pair of lovers.
As the lyrics say: "You hurt me, and you laughed ...... it"
The damage to the Rockets is far more than that, using this ball as the demarcation point, the embarrassed Sen incarnated as Shura in the final quarter, shot inside and out, and instantly helped the Hawks open the score again.
Yao Ming also fought hard in G4, even if his physical fitness was not enough for him to shoot as usual, he had to attack the basket again and again with the ball.
As long as he wins the free throw, Da Yao has a way to recover points for the Rockets.
But Erniu would never give Yao Ming this chance, he pushed Da Yao out of the three-second zone, let Da Yao barely shoot again and again, and protected most of the backcourt rebounds.
And at the last moment, it was also Ruan Erniu who stood up to harvest the game, and he first hit a long shot in a row in the top arc area.
Immediately after, what Barkley called the most correct way to play the ball appeared in the low post, and the exhausted Yao Ming was unable to block Erniu's back attack in the second half of the final quarter.
"Boom!", "Boom!", "Boom!"
Ruan Erniu continued to wreak havoc on the inside of the rocket, whether it was turning behind his back to cut in, or directly chiseling through the defense with his back, Manniu used his own way to ravage the rocket's three-second zone and was miserable.
"Toot!"
With the referee's whistle, the G4 battle finally came to an end.
At 127:108, the Rockets failed to usher in a two-game winning streak on their home court, and they ushered in their third loss in the Finals, falling behind their opponents with a total score of 1:3.
But that wasn't the biggest hot spot tonight, and in fact, even if the Rockets won their last game, many pundits insisted that the Hawks would end the battle with a 5-6 game.
What really caught everyone's attention was the data of the Hawks twin stars in this game.
He made 7 of 8 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws to score a triple-double of 18 points, 16 assists, and 11 rebounds.
Ruan Erniu made 18 of 21 shots, including 12 of 14 three-pointers and 8 of 10 free throws, scoring 56 points, 21 rebounds and 2 assists.
Wait, he seems to have done something terrible?
That's right, Ruan Erniu broke a number of records in the first battle.
For example, the number of consecutive three-point shots in the finals was originally four, but now it is 7 held by Ruan Erniu personally, and the record for the number of consecutive three-pointers hit in the finals is now also refreshed by Erniu to 12, but this is not the most important.
Because he also broke Michael Jordan's Finals individual single-game scoring record - 55 points, and now in front of the two bulls, only one Elgin Baylor is left in front of the Finals individual single-game - 61 points.
At this point, there is no suspense about the title of the first active person in the alliance.
