At the beginning of the game, the two teams staged a battle of iron.

On the Rockets' side, Ron Artest hit two three-pointers in a row, and Steve Francis's breakthrough jumper missed.

On the counterattack of the Rockets, Steve Francis passed the ball inside, Boozer singled inside, turned and caused Harrington's foul.

"In the defensive battle, the Rockets' lead is huge, and in half a game, they have already achieved a 10-point lead!"

With a 10-point lead at halftime, in the second half, Qiao Hai wanted to further expand the difference, so the Rockets' lineup in the second half was the main force.

But the Pacers' comeback......
