After the timeout, the game resumed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before the timeout, the Rockets scored two points and it was the Nets' turn to attack.

After Xiao Ran came to the midcourt with the ball, the Rockets' Patrick Beverley immediately stepped forward to defend.

Speaking of Beverly, we need to introduce him.

He joined the NBA in '09, joined the Rockets midway through '12, was named to the NBA's All-Defensive Second Team in 2013 and won the All-Star Skills Challenge in 2015.

It can be said that Beverley is a very strong combination with Harden on the Rockets, with an offense like a tiger descending a mountain and a defense as impregnable as a wall.

A lot of people think Beverley is one of the best point guards in the league!

He can wreak havoc on the field, and his abundant physical strength and agile pace make him the defensive core of the "AASAA" tactic.

It is very difficult for Xiao Ran to break through Beverley, not to mention that after breaking through Beverley, there must be other Rockets players who immediately stepped forward to help defend.

The tempo of the offense is slowed down and the efficiency is decayed.

Xiao Ran dribbled and didn't have any pressure in the face of Beverley.

Since he can't break through, then Xiao Ran doesn't plan to break through.

In today's game, Xiao Ran has used a lot of worship points, but Xiao Ran is not distressed!

This game was his NBA debut, and it was worth it even if it cost more worship points.

Use a [100% hit card] and jump on the spot!

Beverly was also taken aback.

In his previous defense, no one in the face of him dared to shoot like this, his bounce was good, and anyone who dared to shoot in front of him had to consider whether he would be blocked by himself!

Besides, this time Xiao Ran was not a feint, Beverly also jumped up violently at the moment Xiao Ran jumped up, and raised his right hand high, wanting to block!

But at this moment, Xiao Ran's hand in the air suddenly poured to the right, and in the gap of Beverley's defense, he shot without any hesitation!

This kind of shot looks very hasty to others.

It's not easy to score outside the three-point line, in addition to the accuracy of the accident, no one needs to interfere, and if you shoot rashly like Xiao Ran, you often won't score.

Even Beverly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw this.

"Do you want to score points, you can't help but look down on me too much!"

Beverley thought to himself, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he casually looked back, wanting to see how much the basketball should deviate.

But when he saw the basketball go straight to the net, Beverley's eyes widened.

This...... This goal actually went in?

How could it be!

Obviously, Xiao Ran's movements have been deformed, why can he still score goals?

It's not scientific!

However, after the shock, Beverley immediately decided that this goal must be Xiao Ran's luck.

With the three-pointers, the Rockets' lead was again above 20 points, and now there were 18 minutes and 50 seconds left in the game.

Team Rocket again organized an attack.

On the offensive end, Xiao Ran's defensive target is Harden.

After all, the main scorer of the Rockets is Harden, as long as he guards against Harden, then the Rockets' almost average offensive ability is limited by themselves.

Of course, with Xiao Ran's ability, he can only guard against one Harden.

Harden's offensive means basically rely on physical strength and agility of footwork, but unfortunately, in these two points, Xiao Ran is not weaker than him at all.

But the Rockets' offense is definitely more than that.

Beverley is strong on the defensive end, and he is also strong on the offensive end, his style is tenacious and tenacious, and his running ability is also the best among guards, and he is the best at catching and shooting!

He has a very strong ability to catch and shoot.

Sure enough, in the face of Xiao Ran, Harden couldn't raise the desire to attack at all, and directly passed the ball to Beverley, who immediately shot after receiving the ball.

The basketball hits the board and bounces into the hoop.

Even after Shaw, Beverley also returned the color and gave the Nets a three-pointer.

After scoring the goal, Beverley walked over to Harden, the two faced each other, jumped up, and slammed his body.

Beverley also glanced at Xiao Ran defiantly, the momentum of the entire Rocket team was like a rainbow, and he didn't think that he would lose at all.

The corners of Xiao Ran's mouth curled, revealing a relaxed smile.

Now it's Beverly's turn to be weird.

It stands to reason that the current Rockets have the absolute upper hand in terms of momentum and tactics, and the Nets' baskets will face wave after wave of impact, but the Rockets' baskets, because of the "AASAA" tactics, will not be in much danger at all.

But in this case, Xiao Ran can still laugh, which is really strange.

But then, Beverly knew why Xiao Ran was so relaxed.

Because after Xiao Ran came to the half, after receiving the pass from his teammates, he didn't even think about jumping directly.

Beverley didn't think that Xiao Ran was so lucky to be able to score the ball again, and hurriedly jumped up to defend.

Xiao Ran is the old routine again, with a slight side of his arm, and he finds an opportunity to make a move in the gap between the defense.

Once again, the basketball smashed into the hoop.

The gap in the score was again more than 20 points.

Beverly's brow furrowed.

This tactic of Team Rocket can only be to boil the frog in warm water, but it takes time to boil the frog in warm water, otherwise the frog will be taken out if there is not enough time, and it will not be boiled to death at all.

Now there is no problem with the Rockets' offense, but Xiao Ran's point is problematic again.

With two consecutive three-point hits, the gap in the score could not be narrowed at all, which was a great blow to the momentum of the Rockets.

It is said in the Art of War that once you are vigorous, then you will decline, and then you will be exhausted.

If the score can't be reduced when morale is at its peak and morale has a reason to continue to be strong, then the next thing that greets the Rockets is the overall decline in the momentum of the entire team.

When the time comes, let alone chasing the score, I'm afraid that whether it is offensive or defensive, there will be setbacks.

Rockets head coach D'Antoni also sees the situation.

It's definitely not going to be luck to hit two difficult shots in a row, but there's no way to change that.

Because this is no longer a tactical problem, but a problem of the player's performance, he now hopes that after Xiao Ran's two goals, the feeling behind him can slowly cool down.

As soon as this thought appeared, D'Antoni immediately shouted: "Slow down!

As soon as Taylor, who was holding the ball to organize the attack, heard this, he quickly slowed down his pace and jogged towards the midfield line.

The tempo of the offense suddenly slowed down, which left the fans puzzling.

According to the tactics of the Rockets, fast pace is the advantage of a small lineup, and now they are slowing down the tempo, which is not long equivalent to abandoning their biggest advantage?

And now that the Rockets are still 21 points behind, and now they are taking the initiative to slow down the pace, what does the head coach of the Rockets think?
