Beijing time on June 10, 2018.

Quick Loan Center Arena. The fourth game of the finals started again.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, who had just pulled one back in this game, were in full swing, and they won a big win of nearly 30 points at home.

Frustration is written on every rocket man's face.

The two teams were back on the same page in an instant.

1/

The first shot of the opening game was shot by the Rockets. Capela jumped to the rebound and the offense was initiated by Chris Paul. He and Harden blocked and dismantled in the backcourt, and then borrowed Tucker's body to block and dismantle, and after attracting a double defense, he threw the ball back of his head, and Tucker received the ball on the line of the penalty area and arched forward, pushing Lefu to score the ball.

So far, the game has been normal.

But to everyone's surprise, including the Rockets themselves, their situation took a turn for the worse after scoring this goal.

LeBron James dribbled across the halfcourt, and he broke diagonally and passed to JR Smith, who was ambushed on the weak side, and Smith scored a three-pointer.

James Harden was about to respond, he had just reached the three-point line, and the defensive JR was not in place. Missed.

The rebound that popped up in the front court was pointed out by Ariza from beyond the three-point line and fell into the hands of the Rockets again. This time it was Tucker who made a move. His shot hit the neck of the basket and missed again.

But under the basket, Capela took advantage of the terrain and he leaped high from the crowd. Capela, Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love were in two arms and one black, one white and three arms, he grabbed the basketball and shoved it directly into the basket!

The ball actually hit the front of the basket, bounced itself away, and the basketball rolled out!

Two consecutive three-pointers are not scored, and the close dunk can still bounce off, this is not an ordinary shooting rate problem. Strange, bad luck, the basket is like a cover, you can say anything. But with common sense, it just doesn't make sense!

The situation has taken a turn for the worse!

After the 2-3 start, the Rockets missed three consecutive shots, and after Capela slammed the dunk and was blocked by the hoop, the rebound finally returned to the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers were then initiated by Zhan Huang, who forced his back to turn and hit a three-pointer hollow into the net.

Rocket Harden shot again, shabu out of the basket.

James broke through to the penalty area and gave the ball to Lefu at a 45-degree angle, who clicked on Tucker's supplementary defense and steadily sent three points.

The Rockets used Paul to try to attack, and after a series of pick-and-rolls, Paul squared off against the Cavaliers' center, Thompson. This small and big misalignment happens to be Paul's favorite counterpoint. He dribbled back and pulled Thompson to the perimeter, and everyone pulled away on the weak side to create space for him. With a flick of his wrist, Paul dribbled under his crotch and went straight past Thompson. He hit the basket and had already staggered a position. But Paul was in front and couldn't see Thompson behind him, so he deliberately leaned back to ensure that he was not disturbed, but he didn't expect this lean back to give Thompson a chance. He also shrank his stomach, leaving Paul with nowhere to borrow, and then hurried to block the layup!

The morale of the Cavaliers was boosted, and after LeBron James grabbed the rebound, he pulled out a thousand shots, completely ignoring the defense of the two Rockets and pouring the ball in!

2 to 11, the Rockets are still not suspended.

Coaches choose to believe in their players and choose to believe in the tactical system. Indeed, the Rockets' roster and tactical system are no problem: their counterattack is driven by Harden, Paul is on the outside, and the remaining three, including center Capela, are pulled outside the three-point line. After Harden and Paul went hand-to-hand, Paul broke through to attract the two-man defense, and he immediately distributed the ball to the perimeter. Capela catches the ball first, but he turns to Ariza, who has a big empty space! Sell!

The basket rejected the Rockets for the fourth time.

And the Rockets didn't have frontcourt rebounds this time, and the Cavaliers' advancing speed was not inferior to them at all. Love finds Jeff Green with his trademark long pass. Between Green and the basket, there was only Harden who was waiting to defend in the restricted area, but he actually chose to pull up the jump shot in front of the three-point line!

Maybe it's the frivolity of a young man, but maybe it's also the arrogance of a knight. This three-point shot was also hit!

2 to 14.

This time the Rockets had to choose a timeout!

But after the pause, the rocket's weird hand today didn't improve. After the first quarter, the Rockets made 11 three-point shots, including 4 times for Harden, 2 times for Paul, 2 times for Tucker, 2 times for Ariza, and 1 time for Yang Yiming, all of which were missed! It's true that the more you throw, the less you believe in evil, but the more you vote, the more obvious the curse of the hit rate becomes. The Rockets' scoring champion in the first quarter was actually Eric Gordon who came off the bench, who scored 8 points by breaking through layups and mid-range throws, and controlled the Rockets' loss of points in the first quarter to within 20 points!

15 to 33!

No one can believe that the Rockets, who swept at the Cavaliers' home court in the regular season and defeated their opponents by nearly 40 points, were almost defeated in one quarter.

The second section of the rocket is still not improving. Coach Mike D'Antoni simply replaced the main team and put on the bench to give it a go. Seeing that the situation was critical, Yang Yiming used his scoring skills in advance and scored 9 points in a row to help the Rockets hit a 9-1 attack wave. But today's theme had to be the Cavaliers, and they responded right away — the Cavaliers today were the Rockets, and not only did they shoot their three-pointers with great determination, but everyone was able to shoot them under the tandem of Zhan Huang. This time it was Kyle Korver and Rodney Hood, who hit a left and a right in a row, and finally Zhan Huang took a step outside the arc and hit the shot. The Rockets not only did not indent the score, but the score difference continued to widen.

Gotta call a timeout again!

In the second quarter after that, the Rockets' bench scored more steadily and finally bit the score. The scores of the two teams were staggered, and the succession rose. But the gap is in the three-point shooting percentage. The Rockets lost their three-point weapon and could only break through and shoot from the mid-range, but the Cavaliers are like adding a scope today, every shot must be there, and every shot must be scored!

At halftime, the Rockets had no player to score in double figures, and Gordon, Yang Yiming, and Harden all scored 9 points from three-point points; On the other hand, the Cavaliers, there are LeBron, Love, and JR Smith in the starters, and the substitute Hood, who scores the fourth most, is considered a wonder soldier in this game, and he also scored 9 points like the highest score of the Rockets!

Almost overwhelming: The halftime score also reflected this overwhelmingness, and the Cavaliers led 62-38!

If you don't explain it, you might think that the technical desk has registered the wrong two sides: the Houston Rockets must have scored 62 points at halftime to build a 24-point lead!

Intermission.

There was silence in the locker room of the rockets. Head coach D'Antoni was still cheering everyone on, but everyone, including Harden and Paul, was silent, wiping their sweat and avoiding eye contact. No one could tell what was going on, but everyone's hand felt like it had fallen to freezing point, and it was completely gone that night in the city of Cleveland.

This is an anomaly that the team has not encountered in a season-long season:

Everybody is inaccurate.

No one could put the basketball into the basket from a thin arc 7.25 meters away.

Freezing point.

This game is going to be lost like this, right?

Nobody spoke...

Even the breath exhaled seems to be frozen...
