The Nuggets' style of play looks like they are stunned, but their scale is very well mastered, and you can't blow them for technical fouls.

As long as there is a good opportunity on the Rockets' side, the Nuggets will find a way to stop the Rockets even if they are fouled.

As a result, all members of the Rocket team have some psychological shadows, and if they don't defend like this, if they don't do it well, they will be injured, and they don't dare to do their best to make moves.

In this way, the Nuggets have the advantage on the court.

As an interior player, Millsap's lack of height is his most obvious shortcoming, and in order to make up for his shortcomings, Millsap has also practiced a very stable mid-range shot and good footwork.

After Nelson dribbled past half court, Jokic took the initiative to run over and help Millsap make a pick-and-roll.

In this way, Millsap is formed on top and Jokic on the bottom, the most attacking formation.

After a few passes from the outside, the ball was passed to Millsap.

Millsap shook it for a moment, then distanced himself from Anderson with his skillful footwork, and after a click, he shot directly and threw the ball.

Two points went smoothly.

"Millsap is still the same Millsap, and the mid-range shot is still so stable!"

"As a veteran, Millsap has also brought a lot of experience to the Nuggets, and now the Nuggets' defense looks more reckless, in fact, every step they take is very purposeful!" Barkley said, touching his chin.

On the Rockets' side, because of some fear, the offense did not play smoothly, and after Paul dribbled through the half, the ball passed to Harden's hands.

Harden's offense seemed a little hesitant, and his movements were not as clean as before, and even his step-back shot, which he was good at, was almost touched by Patton.

After a hasty shot, the ball finally bounced out.

After the rebound was taken by Jokic, it was passed directly to Nelson, and then the whole team ran towards the front court quickly, so fast that even D'Antoni didn't expect it.

Moreover, the pass is also fast enough, just after the half, Nelson did not stick to the ball, and directly passed the ball to Wilson, who was in a better position, Cheng Lei was also vigilant, and now the Rockets are playing normally.

Everyone is afraid that they will be injured, but Cheng Lei is not afraid of being injured, and the person who can hurt himself may not be born yet.

Wilson saw that Cheng Lei's defense came up so quickly, and he was very vigilant to pass the ball out, at this time, Barton had already run into the inside, helped Millsap do a block, and let Millsap smoothly to the free throw line.

Moreover, Wilson saw Millsap lift up, and his side was very tightly guarded by Cheng Lei, and he didn't have a chance, so he passed it directly.

This time, Anderson also bypassed the blocker and chased after him, and after Millsap received the ball, he turned around and faced the basket with a little toe and made a shooting feint.

didn't be able to deceive Anderson, seeing that Anderson didn't cheat, after Millsap shook it, he pulled the ball directly and quickly, and stepped out quickly with his right foot, seeing that Anderson didn't follow up directly, his left foot also directly exerted force and followed.

Anderson suffered the disadvantage of a slow start, and after seeing that he had opened up a little distance, Millsal immediately took a throw, which did not give Anderson a chance to accelerate and chase after him.

Well, the ball went in, and the two points were scored again.

In the first quarter of the game, the Rockets were completely pressed and beaten by the Nuggets, and even the two people in the comment seat did not expect that this would be the result.

At 32:26, the first quarter ended, and the Nuggets led the Rockets by six points.

The performance of the players on the field, De Shuai saw it in his eyes, the starting five, and Cheng Lei alone belonged to normal play, and the others seemed a little shrunken.

"You can't do this, you still have to resolutely attack it!" D'Antoni said.

"In this way, in the second quarter of the game, give Ray an assist, everyone must do a good job of covering!"

Now, looking at Harden's performance, it is estimated that it will be difficult to defeat the demons in a short period of time and give full play to their due strength, but now, we can only look at Cheng Lei's performance.

"No problem, just leave it to me!" Cheng Lei patted his chest confidently and said.

Isn't this guy afraid of getting hurt? I'm still young, and I don't know what an injury is! Harden muttered to himself.

Harden is not the only one who has this idea, and it is estimated that other main players also have this idea.

It doesn't matter if you lose one or two games, if you get injured, it's a big impact, and if it's serious, like Rose, it can affect your career.

As soon as he came on the court in the second quarter, Cheng Lei showed a positive desire to attack, and as soon as Paul dribbled past half the court, Cheng Lei directly reached out to ask for the ball.

After getting the ball, Cheng Lei first observed the situation on the court and found that the Nuggets players were really active in defense, and there was no leakage.

Now, Harden and Paul's offensive desire is obviously not very strong, and after they got the ball, the two took the initiative to pull away and handed over the court to Cheng Lei one-on-one.

These two guys, I'm really scared to see the injury! Cheng Lei smiled bitterly, then attack it yourself!

Cheng Lei tentatively dribbled to the right, Wilson's defense was not bad, very positive, when he saw Cheng Lei moving, he also moved, and his defense was mainly based on the card position.

Bang bang...

After Cheng Lei dribbled the ball twice, he broke through to the right with all his strength, faced Wilson sideways, leaned on him with his body, and broke through.

There was an abrupt stop in the middle of the movement, and suddenly there was a large disguise, and the ball changed to the left hand, without any stop, and went to the left.

Relying on the disguise at full speed, he directly threw Wilson away.

"Don't think about it!" Wilson abruptly changed his direction and pounced towards Cheng Lei.

Cheng Lei smiled, waiting for this moment.

The left hand pushes the ball to the right, which is another disguise.

Wilson was trying to keep up, but his footsteps couldn't be changed, his footsteps staggered, and he could only watch Cheng Lei calmly stop the ball and jump.

"Oh my God, did I see Iverson?"

"What a beautiful continuous disguise!"

In the audience, cheers rose one after another, wave after wave.

Cheng Lei's goal also made the Rockets see the good side, the previous game was too aggrieved, the scene was really too dull, Cheng Lei's goal directly ignited the entire arena.

"Defend, defend, defend!"

When the Nuggets attacked, all the fans in the arena stood up and shouted loudly to cheer for their team.

Although the offense is afraid of injury, when defending, all the members of the Rocket team still work very hard, and with the cheering of the audience, everyone's spirit is more concentrated.

"Defend against this ball!" Paul said as he ran.

Harden is also a rare show of his serious defensive attitude, it was said that Harden is not good at defense, in fact, Harden's defense is good or bad, it all depends on his own attitude, he is not unable to defend.
