CP3 is back in action!

Chris Paul was injured in the NBA opener between the Houston Rockets and the Golden State Warriors, and it has been almost a month since he was injured. Tonight's opponent, the Phoenix Suns, with a record of only 4 wins and 10 losses, not only is the team the lowest average age of the youth army, but also the "best league" in terms of points conceded, and it seems that it is the perfect time for Paul to make a comeback. Maybe one day the phoenix will be reborn and take off again, but today, they can only be CP3's sparring partners to regain the feeling of the game.

Coach Mike D'Antoni has set a 20-minute time limit for Chris Paul. But even with limited playing time, the league's No. 1 pure point guard, who has just returned from injury and is back on the court, still handed in 11 points and 10 double-doubles.

Chris Paul replaced Eric Gordon and stepped into the starting position today, showing a strong desire to attack after the opening, dribbling to the front court and shooting directly to the three-point shot, causing the Suns to foul defensively.

And the next round, it was the Rockets' counterattack, Paul dribbled to the three-point line again, do you want to try again? No, I saw him look at the basket, but his wrist was crutched, and he didn't see anyone passing the ball to Ryan Anderson, the shooter who was ambushed on the same side! The latter opened his hand and hit a three-point assist!

One of Paul's most exciting combinations with his teammates came in the middle of the first quarter, when the CP3 was like a drunken boxer, stumbling and making continuous crotch dribbles, bursting into the box, and passing the ball to Capela from behind. Capela saw that the shooting opportunity was not good, and handed the ball back to Paul, and the two actually played a blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation in the bottom corner!

You must know that under normal circumstances, NBA players are behemoths, and they must be cautious even if they hold the ball and shoot in the corner, avoid stepping on the line, let alone dribbling in and out, and dodging and moving. But it is the "don't" in the eyes of the coach, the "can't" in the hearts of ordinary players, but there is only the word "easy" in the real master Paul! I saw him leap lightly, his arm around the baseline, and with a smashing pass, the basketball evaded the pursuit and interception of the two Suns big men, and passed impartially to Capela, who had inserted into the reasonable collision zone, and the latter threw the ball successfully.

Foul at the same time, 2+1!

In the last 60 seconds of the first quarter, it was all about Chris Paul's show time, 39-23, Paul first blocked with Anderson on the outside in a positional battle, and the defender switched positions and sent an overhead second pass, who received the ball at the top of the arc and hit another three-pointer. 42 to 23!

With 19 seconds left, the Suns' Mike James missed a breakaway layup, and the Rockets took a defensive rebound and handed it to Paul. He watched the clock slowly advance to the front court and only launched the attack in the final six seconds. He used center Nene as a cover, but James, who had just missed a goal, was very active, throwing off the cover and catching up. Paul didn't care, his body moved sideways, threw out a shooting angle in the air, and made a three-point shot from a drift!

45 to 23!

The Rockets built a massive 22-point lead in a single quarter.

45 points in the first quarter, the highest in the league this season!

Swords rained down.

Swords rained down.

Swords raining down!

Rocket and Sun, like two martial arts people who have passed the move, replace defense with offense, because only offense is the best defense!

The three-point shot is the sword sacrificed by these two masters.

Flying swords.

Flying all over the sky, there is no fast and unbreakable sword.

The sword of Team Rocket is a ruthless overlord sword. The sword moves led by James Harden are strong and strong, and most of them win with fierceness and brutality, although they see that the opponent's sword edge has been sealed to the critical point, but they still have to shoot, in order to force the opponent to take the move. This kind of trick is naturally fought with the fearless spirit in the chest, and the sword intent in the hand that is accurate and comes at will. For example, in this round, Harden was still outside the three-point line, dribbling under his crotch continuously, and seeing that the defender hesitated slightly with the rhythm of shaking, just like Duan Yu's six-vein sword, he raised his hand to shoot the basket; In the next round, he twisted and crooked to the left, fell but did not fall, as if using Duan Yu's other stunt Ling Bo micro step, a few European steps to the basket, and the layup was successful.

The sword of the Sun Team is the sword of the Five Peaks of the Hundred Schools. Devin Booker, the gentleman's sword of the Huashan faction, is a sword with qi, can shoot suddenly, and the means of scoring are ever-changing, but they are always changing. Greg Monroe is the Songshan sword that dominates the world, with a long handle and a wide sword, just like his center shape; And the tricks of the Songshan sword are powerful and heavy, and with the advantage of its figure, it turns over the river and the sea in the forbidden area, like a fish in water, like the sun in the sky. Troy Daniels, is a twisting and turning Hengshan sword, although it was created by female generations, it rarely gets close to it during the battle, but it is soft in the yin, feminine and feminine, and the needle is hidden in the cotton, and the needle kills. He shot 7-of-13 from three-point range and single-handedly took on the Suns' outside firepower.

However, the master has made a move, the sword is born from the heart, the man and the sword are one, and life and death are often in one thought.

And the martial arts level between a thought can only be learned by practicing combat year after year.

Therefore, for masters, it is better to use one trick than one trick.

The same is true for the Rockets vs. Suns.

The Suns, who won the strengths of everyone, lost to the undistracted Rockets again in this offensive battle in the second quarter, losing 42-45.

The Rockets' 90 points in two quarters were the second-highest halftime points in the NBA since 1991.

Swords, raining down!

3/

After two quarters of what the Rockets were looking for, the game went into garbage time from the third quarter, and Houston won 142-116.

Rockets boss James Harden continued his meteoric run on the scoring charts, scoring 48 points in just 35 minutes of play.

The Rockets, who were like a rain of swords, made 21 of 44 three-pointers as a team, with a shooting rate of 47.7%.

Yang Yiming had a chance to play 28 minutes, shooting 5 of 9 from beyond the three-point line, scoring 24 points personally, and the data of rebounds, assists, steals and blocks happened to be 2. Yang Yiming, who was partnered with top guard Chris Paul for the first time, had the honor of playing with the former in the middle of the second quarter. In one round, the Rockets played an exquisite double-block and pick-and-roll coordination, Paul and Nene made a ball block and break into the restricted area in the high post, Yang Yiming ran along the baseline under Capela's off-ball block, successfully threw off the defenders, and waited at the left baseline at the bottom line. Paul understood, grabbed the ball with one arm, and Eurobu pretended to make a layup, but passed the ball out at the last moment and went straight to Yang Yiming in the bottom corner.

Connect with CP3!

Yang Yiming hit a three-point shot!

And the only disappointment for the Rockets in this game is probably Eric Gordon, who is back on the bench due to Paul's comeback. Coming off the bench is not an unfamiliar project for the once best sixth man, but the frustration is that he is physically tired and played the same time as Yang Yiming, but he only scored 13 points, and the poor form against the Raptors from outside the three-point line continued, only 1 of 7 shots!

All the Rockets who returned to the locker room gathered around Paul, shouting and jumping. Celebrate victory, celebrate the comeback of superstars, and celebrate rocket-style basketball! The Warriors, who were also in the West that night, lost first, and the Rockets, who won the game, overtook their opponents again and returned to the first place in the West!

Eric Gordon was the only one with his hands on his knees, his head in deep thought.

"Eric, I have some good news." Yang Yiming, who noticed this situation, squeezed out of the celebratory crowd, leaned over to Gordon's side, and whispered softly.

"Good news?"

Yang Yiming nodded.

"It's the masseur you said, her one... Good news? ”

Yang Yiming nodded again.

"Really?" Gordon was overjoyed and a little incredulous.

"Really, wait for us to go back to Houston..."Yang Yiming looked at Yu Xiaochun, who had a good heart and made an OK gesture at the two.

"That's it!"

This night was all good news.
