In the first quarter of the battle, the Rockets became a clear team, on the contrary, the Grizzlies were too anxious, so their outside line was not opened, and they still relied on the advantage of the inside line to attack.

In the last three minutes of the first season, the Rockets' three-point momentum suddenly rose, this thing is really amazing, when the shot is accurate, you can shoot no matter what, and it feels like it will be contagious, whoever shoots will score.

To everyone's surprise, the Rockets actually ended the first quarter with a six-point lead.

"Conley, you're playing too impatiently today, it's not like your usual performance!" The Grizzlies head coach said calmly.

Conley held a towel over his head and covered his head with his hands, reflecting on his performance on the court in the first quarter.

For this kind of player, the coach doesn't need to say anything, as long as they give them time, they will adjust themselves, otherwise, they will not be worthy of such a high value now.

As for the Rockets, De Shuai doesn't need to emphasize anything, everyone played well in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, as long as it continues.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the two sides first went to the bench to give the main force enough time to recover, and when the second quarter was two and a half minutes into the game, the Grizzlies took the lead in replacing the main team, and the next time the ball was alternated, the Rockets also replaced all the main forces.

Conley seemed to have learned the lesson of the first quarter, and after coming on the court, he first directed his teammates to run, and he also accelerated the speed of his dribble.

Standing outside the three-point line, with his sideways facing Paul, he commanded his teammates to start running, and since the first quarter didn't feel very good, don't rush and wait until there is a good opportunity to shoot.

With Gasol Jr. on the inside, there will be no chance on the outside.

After making a few feints and finding that there were no good opportunities, Conley passed the ball directly to Evans, who of course relied on his body to hit Cheng Lei.

It's okay to play one or two, the same method is used too much, and Cheng Lei is of course prepared in advance, which makes Evans' attack even more difficult.

After two steps, he didn't get out of a good position, so he could only look for an opportunity and pass the ball to Marc Gasol, who came over to respond.

Mark Gasol is still the Grizzlies' point of decision to be strong, and as long as he stands near the free throw line, he is a danger in itself.

As soon as the three-threat pose was put in, Capela had to concentrate 200 percent.

After shaking his raised hands and making a passing feint, he pressed down with his whole body, turned around, leaned back against Capela, and suddenly exerted his strength and began to attack inside.

Capela misjudged and thought that Gasol Jr. was going to shoot, but he didn't expect Gasol Jr. to play directly with his back to the single.

was pushed like this, and directly lost his position, so that Gasol Jr. turned around directly, and the relaxed face frame was ready to go to the basket.

Anderson rushed over and tried to stop Gasol Jr.

When the opportunity came, Gasol Jr. did not attack directly, but waited for Anderson to come over, and the ball passed towards Wright, who was pushed into the bottom corner.

After Dribbling the ball, Wright aimed at the frame and threw the ball out in a hurry.

In the anticipation of the Grizzlies, Wright finally hit a three-pointer.

"YES, THAT'S GOOD!" Conley waved his arms excitedly.

This is what you want, as long as the outside line can be thrown, Gasol Jr. on the inside line can attack unscrupulously.

"Give them back a three!" Paul dribbled the ball and began to give commands with his other hand.

Since the Grizzlies went to Evans, Cheng Lei seems to have deliberately restrained himself and has not been in a hurry to make a move.

This time, the Rockets changed their strategy, and Capela on the inside came out to help Cheng Lei block and dismantle, allowing Cheng Lei to rush inside smoothly and look for opportunities to attack.

Paul waited for a long time, and when Cheng Lei rushed out, he passed the ball directly.

After Cheng Lei received the ball, he rushed towards the basket with no indomitable progress.

Jumping straight up against Marc Gasol.

However, Cheng Lei's purpose is not to dunk, his purpose is to attract little Gasol to jump up and cover himself.

Gasol Jr. really jumped up, Cheng Lei's goal was also achieved, and he threw the ball directly to the side, and Capela was in an excellent position.

While the Grizzlies are trying to find a way to give the outside an opportunity, the Rockets are doing the opposite, creating opportunities for the inside.

After Capela got the ball, he was in a comfortable position again, and directly completed a one-handed split.

Conley began to do his job in earnest, combing the whole team, and this time, Evans chose to slip the baseline, running from left to right, and after Wright helped him block the pick-and-roll, he ran all the way up to the right side of the 45-degree three-point line.

As soon as the man arrived, the ball arrived.

glanced at Cheng Lei, who was still some distance away from him, and shot three points directly.

This time, luck was on Evans' side, and the ball bounced off and landed in the box.

At the beginning of the second quarter, it seemed to be transferred all of a sudden, and on the Grizzlies' side, three-point shots began to go in.

"It's a little troublesome, the other party is suddenly rising, if you continue to fight like this, it's a bit dangerous!" The assistant coach on the coaching staff said to D'Antoni.

"Don't worry, see how they play the next ball, if they can still score, they are calling a timeout!" D'Antoni said unhurriedly.

After Wright grabbed the rebound, he passed it to Conley, and the Grizzlies started attacking again.

This time, after Conley passed the ball to Gasol Jr., he also ran quickly towards the bottom corner to help Wright, who felt hot. Wright took the opportunity to run straight towards the top lap.

After Anderson was blocked, he quickly spared and rushed towards Wright at full speed.

Gasol Jr. saw Wright in his position and passed the ball directly, and Wright saw Anderson rushing over and directly took a shooting pose.

However, he didn't choose to force his shot, because he saw that Conley in the bottom corner, out of an excellent position, Paul's position was still relatively high, and he didn't estimate Conley in ambush in the bottom corner.

After clicking on it, he passed the ball directly to Conley in the bottom corner.

After a pause, Conley calmed his breath and threw the ball.

In the expectant gaze, he finally threw this three-point in, and Conley finally breathed a sigh of relief.

D'Antoni decisively called a timeout, and it was really bad to play like this, and the Grizzlies felt it as a whole.

"We need to speed up the pace, and now this rhythm is too bad for us!" D'Antoni said.

"After the opponent comes up with three points, don't give them such an easy opportunity to shoot, I'd rather give them some opportunities on the inside than let them go outside, so that they can easily shoot three points!"

After getting back on the court, the Rockets picked up the tempo.

With quick ball guidance and quick shots, Capela is ready to rush for rebounds.

After three leads, Harden took two tentative steps straight inside the three-point line, and then took a trademark step-back step and opened his hand out of the three-point line for a three-pointer.

Boom...

If the ball doesn't score, Capela must have no advantage in grabbing rebounds, even if he rushes, he doesn't have much certainty, but now, it's not just Capela, Anderson is also rushing to grab rebounds.

Cheng Lei saw the time and rushed inside, leaving Harden and Paul outside, to prevent accidents, and to be ready to defend at any time.
