Chapter 316: 20-point lead at halftime
When Adelman started the regular rotation after the second quarter was halfway through, as veterans Maddie, Scola and Chandler were naturally replaced, so that the only players left to start in the second quarter were Harden and Summer.
When Maddie went off the court, Adelman also tested the waters and replaced Beverley, after all, the score was so far ahead, and Adelman also wanted to see Beverley's role.
In this way, the Rockets' lineup has become point guard Beverley, split Harden, small front summer, big front Yao Ming, and center Hassan.
The Mavericks also changed the lineup, first Kidd, Terry and Marion, and replaced Bubajo, Carter, and Odom.
Then, after not playing in this lineup for a while, Carlisle also brought Dirk and Masimmi back on the court.
"Hey! Harden, here! Over here! Summer cut directly to the inside under the cover of Yao Ming, and at the same time began to yell at Harden.
After hearing Summer's roar, Harden began to observe Summer's position, but when he found that Summer had gone too deep, he frowned, it was almost to the basket, and it was not a good ball at this time.
But it didn't take long for Harden to seem to think of a solution, only to see him point to the sky and throw the ball directly towards the rebound, looking at Harden's actions, how could Summer not know what he meant.
Then I held my head and watched the basketball that flew over Summer began to jump, and when Summer jumped to the highest point, the basketball also flew to the outside of the basket, and then Summer's long arm also stretched out, and then pressed the ball into the basket.
"Bang!"
46:31
"Hahaha, handsome air pick-up, this is summer! A player whose physicality is at the top! This is my sir's idol! "Barkley started to blow summer in the studio.
And on the side, Smith also shook his head helplessly, although the air connection in summer is very beautiful, but what the hell are you talking about? If you don't say it, you're not worthy of being your idol, right?
On the court, the Mavericks began to organize an attack, Carter ran to the bottom after relying on Dirk's cover, and at this time, Bubaho also saw Carter's vacancy and passed the ball over.
However, Bubaho's passing was relatively slow, and when the ball arrived, Harden had already defended the past, facing Harden Carter first used a tentative step, and after seeing Harden retreat, Carter directly put away the basketball and shot a three-point shot.
"Huh"
Three-point hit
46:34
Carter didn't get excited after scoring the goal, but calmly returned to the backcourt, and began to laugh at Harden this summer.
"Hahaha, Harden, is this what you Carter? Why was it given to the other party ****, tsk tsk, why don't you pull away and shoot back? ”
Summer's tone was a little ridiculous, and Harden was not angry but arrogant, "Cut, isn't it just a ball, look at it, I'll go back later, but you remember to help me pull it away." ”
Looking at Harden's arrogant appearance, Summer couldn't help but laugh out loud again, why is this Harden so funny, "Okay, okay, I must pull you away." ”
After Xia finished speaking, he ran to the frontcourt and began to organize Hassan and Yao Ming, allowing them to open up space for Harden to play alone.
Harden came to the position of 45 degrees, Beverley also handed the ball to Harden, and he was not in a hurry after receiving the ball, and used a tentative step like Carter, and after seeing that Carter did not react to his tentative step, Harden began to move.
With the help of a tentative step, Harden dribbled directly to the second step, at which time Carter followed, facing Harden's dribble directly into his left side, preventing him from being able to successfully break through the interior from the left.
Harden is not in a hurry for this, since you don't want me to break through the left side, I will go to the right side, the left hand dialed the ball to the right hand, and the right hand held the ball Harden broke through, and in the face of the right side, Harden easily entered the inside.
However, Dirk had already returned to the basket on the inside, and Harden hurriedly pulled back and pulled away the position, faced Dirk with a bow to the Buddha, and finally slapped the basketball again and withdrew after receiving the basketball in his arms.
faked throwing, Dirk was shocked by Harden's action and jumped up directly, watching Dirk being shaken away, Harden hurriedly jumped up and leaned on Dirk to throw a ball.
The "Didi" whistle blew, and Harden didn't score the ball but got two free throws.
"Shhh With both free throws, Harden triumphantly gestured to V.
48:34
When it was the Mavericks' turn to attack, Bubaho handed the ball to Carter to deal with, Carter received the ball and broke through, and Harden took the lead in establishing a defensive position to make Carter's breakthrough unsuccessful.
However, Carter was not discouraged, and slowly dialed the ball to the left hand Carter made a gesture of worshiping Buddha, and then broke through again, directly shook off Harden and entered the restricted area, Hassan made up for the defense, Carter did not collide with Hassan, and solved the battle directly with a high throw.
48:36
The Rockets attacked, Beverley came to the front court to hand over the ball to the summer to deal with, and he ran to the bottom corner to wait, and after the summer held the ball, he didn't need to feint, and directly broke into the inside, and then distributed it to Beverley in the bottom corner.
"Huh"
Beverley's three-point shot was solid when no one was guarded, but this can't be blamed on the members of the Mavericks, this Beverley they don't know, it's just a young player who was cut by the Heat after the preseason.
So nobody thinks he's going to be able to shoot well, but sometimes it's like that, and the more you think someone else does a good job, the better they can do it, like Beverley.
And after the offensive end opened, Beverley's defense seemed to be enlightened, and he began to defend Bubaho like a mad dog, giving Bubaho three steals in a row in the final minutes of the second quarter.
Relying on a steal Beverley also extended the Rockets' lead again, and the Rockets had a 20-point lead by halftime, of which Beverley contributed the most.
If it weren't for Beverley's defense that messed up the Mavericks' organization, maybe the Rockets wouldn't have found a chance to open the score, after all, the Mavericks couldn't guard against the Rockets, and the same Rockets alone couldn't stop the Mavericks.
Whether it's Dirk or Carter, these two are the type of Lian Po who is old, and they are not really old.
62:41
The score was stretched to more than 20 points, and Adelman was relieved to start playing the Mavericks' main force with the bench after the start of the third quarter.
Just like the original intra-team game, a group of benches defeated the main team of summer, Harden and Hassan, and the current Rockets can be described as terrifying.
