Compared to the speed of the offense, the Rocket team really hasn't been afraid of anyone, and when they can play fast offense, they definitely don't play positions.

Hornets fans haven't recovered from the steals and fast-break scores, and the next moment, it's like riding a roller coaster, falling from the top to the bottom all at once, with big ups and downs, coming so fast.

As soon as the ball went in, Harden hadn't run past the halfway line, and the Rockets players all began to defend.

This offensive efficiency is what D'Antoni prides himself on, and it's why the Rockets shoot more per game than any other team.

In the second half of the third quarter, the physical energy of the Hornets players was also violently consumed, and at this time, replacing the substitute was tantamount to taking the initiative to surrender.

After all, Walker is still just falling, Paul is indeed one of the best point guards in the league, and Walker can't shoot smoothly in front of Paul every time.

Today's Batum didn't feel very good, he hit one three-point shot, and the other points were almost all obtained through air cutting and running.

At this time, the Hornets were troubled by a foul on Howard and needed another person to step up in time to help Walker share the pressure on his shoulders.

It was good luck today, and when it was time to score, Marvin Williams, who had been unknown in front of him, stepped up.

Taking advantage of Harden's somewhat lax defense, he scored two three-pointers in a row, allowing the game to remain in suspense before entering the fourth quarter, and the Rockets led by seven points.

After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, in order to keep Paul and Harden, who were constantly breaking through to the inside, to maintain their physical fitness until the end, Cheng Lei, who had been ambushing and releasing cold arrows, took on the responsibility of breaking through.

After Cheng Lei came on the court, the whole person was very active, using his physical fitness to speed up, constantly impacting Batum's defense, Batum is also tough, and the defense is maintained very well.

Because the score was ahead, Cheng Lei was not in a hurry, tried a few times, and after no chance, he passed the ball back to the outside.

After Harden received the ball, he first dribbled two steps, and then suddenly made a horizontal disguise, and the whole person twisted his body in a weird posture and broke through inside.

This goal has the feeling of Manu at the peak of the year, the spirit snake breaks through, the pace is impermanent, there are changes at any time, and it seems that it may fall to the ground and lose the ball at any time.

Harden's goal is as firm as ever, as if he is on the bar with Howard, a big stride, and after passing Williams, he runs directly towards Howard.

Howard really wanted to cry without tears, I really provoked someone, just stood still and didn't step forward to make up for it, since he could still touch his own body.

The key problem is that now I can't go back, I can only stand in place, holding my hands high and not moving, as long as I don't move, I believe that the referee will have no way to blow his foul.

Harden is not stupid, if you want to succeed in touching porcelain, acting skills are very important, this point, Harden has practiced to perfection, and with his own real steps, as long as Howard moves a step, then this foul will definitely not be escaped.

At this time, Cody was thinking about coming up to protect Howard, but it was too late.

After Harden's European step took a step, he did not rush to take the second step directly, but raised his body slightly and put on a throwing hand.

Human instinct is difficult to control, and Howard saw Harden shoot and instinctively jump vertically to block.

Harden smiled in his heart, and the opportunity came.

Europe stepped out slowly in the second step, heading towards Howard.

"Walk, he can't walk this ball!" The Hornets' coach shouted with his hands in the air.

The referee ignored his protests, and for a few superstars, they won't blow the whistle if they can't go, and that's the superstar's prerogative.

At this time, Harden crashed headfirst into Howard's arms.

Toot toot...

The whistle blew decisively, and Howard was whistled for another defensive foul, and only two minutes into the fourth quarter, there were five fouls, and there was only one foul away from being sent off.

", this Nima is our home turf!" Boss Jordan was very unhappy on the sidelines and spat trash talk at the referee.

This kind of blowing penalty, I don't know, I thought this was the home court of the Rockets, today's referee's whistle was too biased in favor of the Rockets, otherwise, at this point in time, Howard would definitely not get five fouls.

In order to prevent Howard from losing control of his emotions, Cody came up as soon as possible and pulled Howard away.

Howard reluctantly walked away while trash talk to Harden, greeting Harden's whole family.

Now, the problem is in front of the head coach of the Hornets, replacing Howard, which means that there is no hope of turning the game around, Howard stays on the court, and is easily sent off by six fouls, then, for his future games, there may be an impact on his mentality.

After much deliberation, the Hornets coach decided to replace Howard, after all, the season has just begun, and it is still long.

After Howard left the court, all the offensive pressure was on Walker, but he was facing Paul, who was an old fritter on defense and had countless dirty methods, so how could he take advantage of it.

In the end, after he tried his best, the score was not closer, and when there were three minutes left before the end of the game, the Hornets removed all their main players and replaced them with full substitutes, which means that the game conceded defeat.

The Rockets, of course, have all replaced their main forces.

In this game, Cheng Lei's data was quite good, he came off the bench and scored 15 points, 2 steals and 4 assists, and the Rockets won 103:90.

After the game, all the staff were also happy, and in the locker room, Harden took the lead in singing hip-hop.

"Ray, do you look like you've met Jordan?" Paul asked, holding his phone.

"Is this okay?" Cheng Lei was a little overwhelmed with excitement.

"Of course you can, didn't he sit on the sidelines today, I just contacted him!" Paul said with a smile.

As a member of Jordan's signature sneakers, Paul and Jordan still have a very good relationship.

Cheng Lei quickly washed up, changed his clothes, and went out with Paul from another door in the locker room.

On the second floor of the basketball hall, there is an office, and Jordan is waiting for the two of them inside at the moment.

On the court, on the court, brothers, although the Hornets lost today, Jordan just sighed and shook his head, and quickly put the matter behind him.

In the office, Paul introduced Cheng Lei to Jordan, and Jordan also gave a lot of affirmation to Cheng Lei's performance, and patted Cheng Lei on the shoulder and encouraged: "The future is yours!" ”

Why does this sound so familiar? Wait, as if this is a classic quote from Duncan, whoever has been said by him, this is like being cursed, and there is no future in sight for several years.
