At the beginning of the playoffs, Tang Qian will have a habit of turning off all mobile phones and networks and concentrating on the playoffs.

At this point, he still studied the opposite Knight No. 23, and I have to say that in this era of information explosion, this is a very effective way to block interference. At most, I know some things through the mouths of media reporters, and don't take the time to watch all the mess on the Internet. Save yourself from shaking your will and determination.

During this time, neither Taylor nor the rest took the initiative to contact Tang Qian, because they all knew the latter's habit, so the most they could do was to come to the home stadium to refuel, and it would be best if they could show their faces. Like the kind of person who plays the playoffs and hangs out with women every day, and goes to nightclubs every day, it's strange that you can play well, and you really deserve it if you don't play well.

Pickled girls and played well, you think you are the protagonist of Shuangwen, that kind of thing just by imagination, of course you can.

Anyway, it's just a mouthful.

Even if it's as strong as Wilt. Chamberlain, when he really led the team to win the championship, also concentrated on minimizing "amateur activities" and "extracurricular activities". Otherwise, do you really think that he can easily take down Boston's eight-game Hell Dynasty? What are you not dreaming? Look at his anger after winning the championship, won't he be killed by the other party? Playing basketball, the more playoff it is, the more important this aspect is.

The second game was held at the Staples Center, the home of the Lakers, on April 21, US time. As soon as these words came out, they were immediately pushed by countless reporters, and they became popular on the Internet in an instant, and many people thought that Tang Qian was very domineering, and he was becoming more and more mature and powerful as the boss of the team. But some people are in the opposite tone, claiming that Tang Qian is ruining his character, this is poisoning himself, look at Maddie's famous words back then, don't be Maddie's second.

Before the start of this game, the Cavaliers had already defeated the Celtics on the 19th, and today they won the opponent again by 8 points, and at present, the score is 2-0, and the situation looks very good. Many experts are predicting that the Cavaliers have a good chance of sweeping the Celtics and comfortably advancing to the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Warriors also beat the Mavericks twice to take a 2-0 advantage. The Raptors lost another game and continued to be beaten up, and the Wizards' Wall was in great shape, scoring 26+17 in this game. Don't get me wrong, this 17 isn't a rebound, it's an assist! 17 assists! helped the Wizards beat the Raptors by 11 points and also achieved a 2-0 advantage. The Hawks, on their side, were similarly close, leading the Nets 2-0 and the Bulls also leading the Bucks 2-0. In this way, there are many cases of 2-0 in the playoffs this year, but not all teams can sweep their opponents in one go.

The rest of the teams in the West, the Clippers and Spurs, played 1-1, and they were carelessly beaten by the old Spurs in the last minute with a 9-0 shockwave, and finally lost by 2 points, and the latter stole one game at home. The game between the Trail Blazers and the Grizzlies hasn't started yet, so for the time being, the Trail Blazers have a 1-0 lead over the Memphis Grizzlies.

"This is the Celestial Empire Sports Table, and the game we brought today is the Los Angeles Lakers vs Houston Rockets, and the Lakers are currently leading 1-0 with a big score."

"This is ESPN Channel 2, today let's see if the Lakers can still win? Welcome to our guest, Joey. Barry. Mr. Carroll, I wonder who Mr. Carroll is more optimistic about tonight? Surely more optimistic about the Houston Rockets, right? haha~ I think so too, the Rockets are the team with the league's No. 1 center and No. 1 percentile. As long as they play normally, there's no reason why they can't beat the Lakers, right? Well? Mr. Carroll, why don't you speak? Are you uncomfortable? We have medical personnel on our side. "Former Golden State Warriors player Joey. Barry. Carol said in her heart: You helped me finish speaking, what else can I say? You can beep so much, why don't you narrate the host by yourself? Idiot one! Now Nima, who else thinks Howard of the Rockets is the No. 1 center? Don't pull me when your brain is in water, okay?

On the Web:

Today, the tyrant will blow up the opponent again! I'm from the future, it's already decided!

Let's predict how many points Howard will score tonight? 4 options, 0 points, 5 points or less, 10 points or less, 20 points or less, guess me and I'll scatter gold cards. Don't hesitate, buy and leave!

If Howard doesn't show some skills in this series, it will be a major turning point in his career. Well, the turning point downward.

Last year, it can be said that the playoff victory over the Rockets was with Kobe Gasor Nash, and if it wins this year, Howard's fans have nothing to say, right?

No, they can also compete for the title of the league's worst free throw-shooting No. 1 center, and this hot playoff game is also a hit.

The topic is novel and the angle is tricky, and full marks can be given.

No matter how you say it, in fact, the momentum of public opinion on the Internet has slowly fallen to the Lakers, and if this one loses again, the pressure on the Rockets will be great. In this game, the Lakers still discharged the starting five Tigers of Tang Qian + Bosh + Ariza + Butler + Jeremy Lin, and opposite was Howard + Harden + Terry + Terrence. Jones + Josh. Smith.

There was no suspense in the Lakers' scramble, Tang Qian easily dialed it down, and the Lakers attacked quickly, but Ariza was a little cold in this ball, so he was not able to throw it in. The Rockets changed the problems of the previous game in this game, and they began to accelerate as a whole, and it seemed that the effect was still good in a short time. At least if you play fast, you will have fewer landing positions, and you can almost realize that it can weaken the Lakers' defensive dominance under the No. 29 basket. At the beginning of this game, the Rockets were very powerful on the outside, Harden broke out after blocking and dismantling, and the outside basically responded, which made the Rockets suppress the Lakers at the beginning of the game.

Now the Rockets are a bit of a weird thing, and that's that when they play against the Lakers, basically the role players shine more than the core players or you call them cornerstone players. This was the case in the last game, and this one, the start is similar. This made D'Antoni feel a little different, but he wasn't worried about it. Because again, role players can only play the role of "point", "line", sorry, they can't. Continuity and staying power don't last that long.

Otherwise, they would have been stars rather than role players.

As long as this wave passes, it's time for the Lakers to turn around.

It's basically the right idea, because unless the team breaks out, it's really not easy to rely on role players to win and beat strong teams. Role players can do very key "points", such as lore and key balls, which can be, but "there is a precedence in hearing the Tao and a specialization in the art industry", their ability and value are determined, and the "point" can never do what the "line" can do. Even the simplest "regular output cable" is difficult.

By the end of the first quarter, the Rockets' role began to decline, and taking advantage of this wave, the Lakers immediately pushed quickly, and the score difference was engulfed in an instant. Fortunately, it was time for Tang Qian and Howard's regular break, which allowed the Lakers' offensive wave to slow down a little. However, they had already won 29-28 in the first quarter.

At this time, it is a manifestation of McHale's ability to coach, sitting on two players, Howard and Harden, he actually only knows that they can play singles frequently, simply cover, and the tactics can't run a few at all, so it's okay to play the regular season and the playoffs? Save it. In the intensity of the playoffs, McHale's ability to coach is not up to par. Whether it is the overall tactical planning or the impromptu response on the field, it is not good, he should go down for a few more years, and then come back to work as a head coach.

Anyway, Morey, the general manager of the Rockets, is counting on him to lead the team to win the championship, which is the big dream of Spring and Autumn.

Harden still didn't play well in this game, just like the original Spacetime Rockets in this season's playoffs, his second game was also a shit shooting rate, continuing the "strong" of the first game. Of course, this has a lot to do with Butler's defense, Butler has been very obedient since he was well-behaved, he worked extra the defensive end, which made Harden just hit the "muzzle", he played singles, singles Jimmy. Butler, it's really not very efficient. D'Antoni looked at the Rockets' No. 13 off the court, the new league's first percentile, and shook his head secretly, saying that McHale would not use people, at least in his opinion, with a player like Harden, he can still play a lot of tricks. Don't be so dead to be watched by a Butler.

But that's all about Team Rocket, what does it have to do with him? He wished the Rockets head coach was as stupid as possible.

Again, fans like to watch intense and exciting playoff matchups, and as a head coach, he simply doesn't want to. Fans of this kind of game are enjoyable, but the consumption of the team will definitely not be small, the playoffs are very long, and this is the West, so he hopes that the front can be comfortable in the past. The less suspenseful it is, the more I like it.

That's the difference in mentality between the fans and the manager. "The ass is everything", this theory still has some truth.

Not only D'Antoni, I believe that any head coach in the history of the NBA thinks so, the easier the game to win, the better, and fight hard if you can fight less. At this time, Harden "repeated his old tricks" and wanted to "touch porcelain", and when he succeeded again and again, the on-site commentators of the Lakers couldn't help but say: "I really don't know James. Should Harden change careers, should he go to Hollywood? ”

"Touch the porcelain king! In our era, he was ridiculed and shot to death, and it is only in this era of body hair that he can get the first quartile position and live comfortably. It's fucking unfair! Another live commentator, Stu. Lanterz was also upset with Harden's move.

Harden's style of play is too unpopular, which is also a fact, his first quartile is not a little less popular than the previous few points. Fortunately, at this time, the Rockets' bench came up again to renew his life. Brewer stepped up and scored 2 in a row, including a 2+1 against Yi Jianlian, which allowed the Rockets to temporarily overtake the score. Bosh didn't feel as good as the last game, he missed several shots, broke through or something, and hasn't recovered to his pre-injury best.

But this situation changed immediately after Tang Qian returned to the court, Tang Qian began to occupy an overwhelming advantage in low-post rebounds, he really had no way to grab Howard, he could only watch, and even the Rockets' defensive rebounds, Howard was difficult to guarantee. This point made Howard himself feel a little embarrassed. But he's just returned from injury, it's only his second game, and it's not uncommon for him to be in shape, well, even if he's still at the peak of the season, so what? He only has 10+ rebounds this season, so I ask you, is this strong?

Because of his lack of attendance during the season, he didn't even qualify for the rebounding list, and even if he did, it would be a shame. It can only be ranked 9th on the rebounding list this season! Than Nikolai. Vucevic is even worse. That's what Dwight. Howard had his worst rebounding season except for his rookie season. This season, his rebounding ability has fallen to the bottom, and he is not very strong at all. This also made many Rockets fans question for the first time this once crazy recruit of the league's No. 1 center.

"You haven't recovered yet, have you?" Tang asked after grabbing a rebound and completing the second offense.

Howard thought that the other party would say something to comfort him, but who knew that the former would change his words and said: "Then you are really going to be unlucky, I will not miss such a good opportunity for tyranny." "You, you're taking advantage of others! Do you still have the demeanor of an inside master! Howard's words, Tang Qian didn't care at all: "I just took advantage of your illness to kill you?" Besides. The Lakers' No. 29 said something that made Howard's facial muscles cramp: "Do you think you can flip around this season without injury?" Don't you have a chance? How am I going to hang you, and how am I going to beat you? ”

"So since that's the case." Tang Qian smiled: "I don't take advantage of the danger of others, what's the difference?" ”

Howard didn't want to lose, and he tried to shoot, but this game was worse than the last, and he hadn't scored even a single point so far. 0 of 4 free throws didn't help him break the zero. This Nima, I'm not going to score zero in this game, right? As soon as he thought of this, Howard had a strong desire in his heart:

Absolutely not! This will be laughed to death! The league's No. 1 center, against the opponent, got 0 points?

It's scary to think about the gossip Howard after the game.

"Zero eggs?" If that nickname were to catch on, it would have made Howard feel all the offseason.

So Howard began to increase his shots, many opportunities that were not opportunities, and he also chose to shoot, but the result was, missed, hatted, iron, missed. finally caused the Lakers to foul on the 29th, but they still missed 2 free throws at the free throw line, and they still failed to break the "zero duck eggs". But if he plays like this, the damage to the team will have a greater impact on Harden, and what the Rockets need more at the moment is for Howard to be tough on the defensive end, at least the low-post rebounds don't let the Rockets be blown up so badly by the Lakers. Speaking of Harden, Harden repeatedly wanted to call Howard to come up to block the dismantling, but Howard didn't move, which made the Rockets' No. 13 really angry.

You are a big center with athleticism and mobility ability who doesn't come up to help me block and dismantle, are you doing it on purpose?

Every day, I only know that I want the ball to play the low position, and I want the ball to play the low position, can I hit you with a low hammer? With your league's bottom-to-bottom singles efficiency, why are you embarrassed to keep asking for the ball? Give you ten, you are under the defense of Dongfang Iron, can you score one? You're a piece of garbage!!

Harden and Howard are now in the honeymoon period has passed, and he is beginning to look more and more at this stupid big man who doesn't like to block and dismantle, and Howard's low post efficiency is extremely poor, and it has slowly become the consensus of the entire league, not to mention Harden, it is the head coach of the Rockets, Kevin. McHale couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Dwight! What are you doing? Pass! Pass me the ball! Don't keep asking for the ball to play low! Go up to the top arc more and help James do high cover! ”

However, Howard was afraid that he would score zero in this game, so he only showed a little in the next round, and continued to return to the "self-hypnosis" state of "low-post Huo". But Harden won't give him the ball at all, you are an inside player, no matter how capable you are, if you don't give you the ball from the outside, what can you do? O'Neill can't do anything!

So Harden is really not afraid of Howard doing this.

This team, I'm the boss, you're in this state, and you deserve to be called a duo with me? Don't be funny with me!

No wonder the Black Mamba can't look at you, there's nothing wrong with that! You're just an embroidered pillow that you don't like!!

Harden's words are also a bit too much, after all, he forgot how much he fell off the chain in the playoffs, and if it wasn't for Howard's outburst last year, the Houston Rockets would not have been able to meet the Los Angeles Lakers. Even if it is the original time and space, it is Howard who is "doing thighs" at the critical moment. It's just that Howard has now been fully suppressed by Tang Qian. I can't do it anymore.

By the second half of the third quarter, the Lakers had basically established a ten-point lead. Howard, still without a point, has shot 0 of 11 in this game so far, and has missed all free throws, which makes the Lakers' on-site commentator Beal. McDonald teased: "Can our Mr. Warcraft break the scoring drought tonight?" I'm really looking forward to it. "By his side Stu. Lanterz echoed: "I hope that he will be completely sealed tonight, this kind of rotten person who played our Lakers team back then is not worthy of sympathy at all!" If I get hot, I'm going to trample him to the ground and crush him! That offseason was so annoying that I was so excited that I smashed my TV. ”

"So you think Mr. Warcraft owes you a TV?" Bill. McDonald quipped.

"Of course." Stu. Lanterz was a little arrogant: "But if he is completely sealed tonight, then I will forget it, after all, this appearance is enough to arouse my sympathy." 'Zero Egg Huo', I really hope that from tonight, he will have this nickname that makes people feel wonderful when they hear it. ”

"It's much easier to remember than Warcraft, isn't it?"

Yes, it's your uncle! I'm not going to let this bullshit get on my head!

I want to, I want to change my life against the sky!!!!!!!!!!!

If Tang Qian could hear this, he would definitely give our Warcraft a mending sword: Are you sick in the second grade?

I am your God, your life, you, can I change it?
