Quick Loan Center Arena. Ice and fire on and off the field.

1/

The Rockets lost to the Cavaliers 98-110. The 2-0 lead came to an abrupt end. The Quick-Loan Center Arena became their ice valley.

After two consecutive wins, the Rockets' morale has reached an all-time high, and some local media in Houston even made a bold guess that the Finals would end this Sunday (the Rockets swept 4-0). Although the G1 Rockets faced the omnipotent LeBron James, he lost to his teammates in the end and lost in overtime; The G2 Rockets were on offense, James Harden turned on the three-point shooting mode, and he hit 9 three-pointers to break the Finals record, and the Rockets won easily. It's hard and easy, but it's the same way, which inevitably raises the Rockets' expectations for the next road trip.

But the greater the expectation, the greater the loss.

The Rockets, who thought they were sure to win, took a blow to the head at the beginning. Mike D'Antoni put Yang Yiming back into the starting lineup, but he didn't expect that it was not Zhan Huang who scored points on him today, but JR Smith who stole Zhan Huang in the first game!

He really incarnated Zhan Huang's right-hand man today, not only grabbed the frontcourt rebounds in a row at the beginning, but also gave Zhan Huang, Lefu and Thompson two opportunities to attack. His own breakthrough suddenly had the shadow of Emperor Zhan, and the shadow jumped, and Europe stepped to the basket and threw a steady shot. The three points of his nerve knife actually added a crosshair. Left and right corners, two consecutive three-point shots. The Cavaliers threw a mess of punches and stopped the Rockets 14-6 in the opening game.

After a timeout, the Rockets finally found some rhythm and relied on the on-court duo of James Harden and Chris Paul to keep chasing points. Harden and Capela also played an aerial connection to tie the score closer.

But Zhan Huang actually threw himself and scored a goal with the trick of former Rockets star Maddie. The fan atmosphere at the Quick Loan Center has been ignited again!

The Cavaliers' James helpers also regained their strength, Love and Thompson made consecutive strong baskets, George Hill sent three points from the outside, and even though Harden, who started his personal scoring, still continued to live for the Rockets, the Cavaliers still led by four points 29-25 to end the first quarter.

In the second section, the rocket drove low and went high. In the first 8 minutes, the Cavaliers continued to open the score under the shouts of the fans in the stadium, led by Zhan Huang, and expanded the difference to as many as 16 points at the maximum. But eight minutes later, the Rockets seemed to suddenly have the hang of it, with Harden connecting the Rockets' outside battery, with Ryan Anderson, Gerald Green, and Eric Gordon scoring respectively. After a three-point rain, the Rockets instantly narrowed the difference.

In the last round of the first half, the Cavaliers were attacked by James and made an offensive foul by Yang Yiming. But on the contrary, Yang Yiming seized the 3.5-second offensive time and received Harden's baseline ball to launch a full-court assist. The basketball was thrown directly from the Rockets restricted area to the Cavaliers restricted area, and Capela, who was ambushed in advance, dunked it successfully!

When the ball lands, the clock runs out! The Rockets chased the score to 56-58 by only 2 points!

Playing the third quarter has always been a weak point for the Rockets, but fortunately they bit the score and lost by 3 points under the onslaught. The 5-point margin is perfectly acceptable, now just look at the play in the fourth quarter!

In the fourth quarter, Yang Yiming's skills exploded. In the case that Zhan Huang and JR took turns scoring rockets but repeatedly missed, he stood up to add points to the team! Yang Yiming hit a three-pointer first. Then facing JR's defense, he broke through on the left side for half a step, took off and hit a high board shot. The feeling came, and his teammates were used to Yang Yiming's outburst, so they simply passed all the balls to him. He lived up to the high expectations and hit another goal with his back to Kevin Love. Yang Yiming turned outside after hitting his back, and Lefu had already pressed all his body on his upper limbs, but Yang Yiming still relied on his strength to throw the basketball. The ball was suspected of foul but the referee did not blow the penalty, but fortunately, the basketball went in after four or five bumbles on the basket!

The scores were staggered, and the fourth quarter was midway through, but the Cavaliers always maintained a one-to-two-point lead over the Rockets. Fortunately, Yang Yiming's outburst came at the right time, as long as the Cavaliers scored, he could return the color: he grabbed Gordon's three-point rebound, turned and hit a mid-range shot on James. In the end, there was still time for his singles skills to be released, and the Cavaliers had just scored a three-point shot from a long distance by JR, and Yang Yiming did not hesitate to pull a shot and responded with three points.

The Cavaliers, who were only one point ahead in the final two and a half minutes, called a timeout!

2/

But this timeout also became the closest the Rockets have approached the score before the end.

Yang Yiming's skills have been used up for three minutes to work, but other teammates have not yet regained their firepower, Harden and Paul have missed consecutive singles, but the Cavaliers, who have stabilized their mood, have cooperated. Korver gave up an open three-point opportunity, split the ball early before the Rockets' defense was in place, and passed the ball to Jeff Green, who was inserted under the basket; Green was completely unguarded and dunked with ease.

The Cavaliers lead by 3 points!

LeBron James has made 8 three-pointers in this game - but just like the introduction thrown by Yang Yiming in the Weibo Q&A before: In the NBA, a league with a clear division of labor, some players have more shots than if the shooting rate is high; And a superstar like James, the starting point of all coaches' tactics, even if he makes 8 shots in a single game, he still has the right to throw the 9th three-pointer!

And it happened to be this ninth goal, hit!

The Cavaliers take a 6-point lead!

Harden's breakthrough layup was also fanned by Zhan Huang and Thompson in the boos of the full-court quick loan center, and the Rockets were completely helpless. Korver made two free throws with less than 10 seconds left on the game. The atmosphere of the Cleveland people rose to the apex as the Rockets' three-point shot was missed and the rebound was thrown into the air after James grabbed the rebound; Before the game, he was proud to prepare for the 3-0 Rockets, but fell to the freezing point.

Unexpectedly, this unexpected defeat made the discussion on the domestic Internet show a completely different and hot scene.

Yang Yiming's Weibo Q&A, boasting that as long as conditions permit, he can score 50 points in a single game in the NBA finals, seems to have been found by his supporters: when it was most necessary to bite the score in the fourth quarter, everyone in the team felt cold, and only by Yang Yiming's outburst did they persist until the decisive moment.

But in the decisive battle, the ball returned to the hands of the opposing star and missed...

Otherwise, just let Yang Yiming score everything?! Since he can score 12 points in a row, as long as the coach allows it, why can't Yang Yiming keep scoring it, maybe he can break the stalemate and win this game for the Rockets.

Why?

Isn't it really worth a try?

Coach D'Antoni has not heard this quarrel on the other side of the ocean yet, but he doesn't know that as long as it is not long in time, this gradually tilting public opinion will be like an oil slick on fire, floating to the other side of the ocean with the wind and waves!
