"Who can stop the Houstonians?"

After the Rockets' 14-game winning streak, a striking news in bright red large bold font appeared on the homepage of ESPN's official website, the Rockets have never been a favored team, they have never been developed in history, even when they won two consecutive championships in 94/95, under the leadership of Olajuwon, the Rockets entered the playoffs as fourth and eighth in the West, and finally won the championship after several life-and-death battles.

The Mavericks are very weak, the Spurs are very old, and the Rockets are very strong have always been the three major illusions of the top three in Texas, and the Rockets have never given people a strong team performance, although they have never been weak, but even when Yao Mai joined forces, they did not play dominant, and the Rockets have always given people the feeling of a civilian team, which is thanks to Alexander's picking, and also because of the relationship between the temperament of the players of the Rockets team.

But now the Rockets dominate the league all of a sudden, winning the championship in the first year, and the second year is a bit invincible in the league, which makes other teams, including many media, unacceptable, because the rocket's rise is too fast, so fast that other teams are not a little guarded, and the little minions who have not been regarded as opponents by themselves for the first two days have become an existence that they need to look up to, and how many teams can accept this earth-shaking change?

On December 02, he went to Phoenix City to challenge the Phoenix Suns, who have gradually lost their competitiveness in the league in recent years, and the two-time regular season MVP of the Wind Child has been aging, and Stoudemire, known as the little overlord, has also lost nearly 3% of his athleticism due to minimally invasive surgery, under the coaching of offensive master D'Antoni, the Suns have become the league's highest average points per game, the most offensive team, but defense is the biggest obstacle to their achievements, '07 was the closest the Suns came to a championship, but Bowen and Horry teamed up to destroy the Suns' hopes.

Some fans may complain that the Spurs have harmed the Suns with indiscriminate and unfair means, but from another point of view, this is the NBA, the most physically confrontational basketball league on the planet, not to mention the playoffs of life and death? Every team has a villain player, in the playoffs every player will use rude and dirty methods to deal with the enemy, the playoffs are originally a stage of iron and blood, no matter how gorgeous the offense is in the playoffs after all.

However, this year, the Phoenix people are showing a reverse growth mode, in the first 14 games, the Suns actually played a wave of 12-2 amazing record to chase closely behind the Rockets, this year's old man can still pass suddenly, the little bully who has lost his absolute athleticism has practiced a more stable mid-range shooting, the old monster Hill is getting older and more demonic, the dunk king Richardson three-point breakthrough is sharp, and the explosive head Lopez makes people see that he has the potential to become a defensive giant, Coming off the bench, Frye has become the most three-point shooting center in the league at the moment, sophomore Dragic is showing more and more of Nash's demeanor, Brazil's lightning Barbossa is not having lightning-fast speed, but his three-point shot is becoming more and more stable, and Dudley and Armondson have become the two most consistent defensive points in the Suns' bench.

The routine of this year's Suns game is to stun the opponent with a hammer at the beginning, and then slowly consume with you by the bench, consume your experience, and then wait until the second half of the third quarter to give you a hammer with the main force, and completely knock you to the ground.

At the beginning of the game, the whole Suns will be very serious, they are already the last barrier to stop the Rockets, if this game is won by the Rockets, the opponents behind the Rockets are such as the Nets, the Kings, and the Bobcats. Hornets, Pistons, 76ers, these weak teams in the east and west, they can make the possibility of the Rockets capsizing in the gutter even less, if the Suns don't withstand today, I'm afraid that the Rockets will accidentally start the season to win 21 in a row, which is a new record in the history of the league.

And in addition to not allowing the Rockets to dominate in the real sense, there are still a lot of new and old grudges between the Suns and the Rockets, the hatred between Stoudemire and Yao Ming, Totoro humiliating the little bully last season, and Paul eliminated the Suns in the playoffs last season, these are all points that the Phoenix people can't swallow, the Suns have already figured out to play this regular season as the Finals today, if the Rockets are a little careless, they will become the first team in the league to succeed in killing gods!

However, the Rockets may have been carried away by the winning streak, since the victory over the Lakers, they themselves have been a little fluttering, and they didn't take the Suns too seriously before the start of the game today, but the Suns seized the opportunity to beat them up, Nash chased three three-pointers, Richardson two three-pointers, Hill hit two three-pointers, the Rockets were beaten 34-14 in the first quarter, and they fell behind by as many as 20 points in a single quarter, which seems to be the largest point difference lost by the Rockets since the beginning of the 20th century.

And this is not the most angry for the Rockets, in the last three minutes of the first quarter, the Rockets' loose defense gave the Suns a chance, Nash and Xiao Si blocked and dismantled no one to delay the little overlord, the collective attention of the Rockets players was on the body of the Wind Child, as a result, Nash a dexterous base gave Xiao Si an excellent performance stage, Stoudemire received the ball three steps and two steps after the air cut, and directly staged a shocking dunk on the unprepared Da Yao, and deliberately roared at Yao Ming after the dunk, I want to recreate that scene in March '04.

The little giant hasn't reacted yet, but Totoro rolled up his sleeves and was ready to give Stoudemire a little color to see, of course the little overlord is not a vegetarian, he was ready to do something on the field long before the game, and he expected that there would be a conflict, and he also put on a posture at the moment, ready to have a full martial arts with Totoro.

It's really hard to judge who has stronger combat effectiveness, Totoro or Xiaobawang, but most fans still believe that Totoro will win in the end, after all, Totoro's past record is there, Lao Zhan's strength + Durant's height and arm span + Kobe's agility + Maddie's reaction speed is not blown out, and Totoro with system strength bonus is so strong.

However, the fans were not able to see the outcome of the battle with their own eyes, because the two were pulled back by their respective players before they could rush up, Adelman called a timeout in time, and the referee finally gave Totoro a technical foul to end the game.
