At this time, Harden motioned to his teammates to hold steady, and not let the score that he had so hard to catch up with pull away again.

Green defended Harden, Thunder Water defended Brewer, Thunder Water looked at Brewer, he was already wilted, and the headband was crooked by Leonard.

Harden and Capela blocked again, at this time the Spurs' perimeter defense was very in place, and Brewer's position was Harden's blind spot, Lei Shui judged that after Harden broke through, he must have passed the ball to Capela, and decisively gave up the defense of Brewer and received the basket, Harden really threw the ball high to Capela, and wanted to make an empty catch, Lei Shui jumped high and intercepted it directly in the air before Capela touched the ball.

Lei Shui dribbled quickly, turned around and added his crotch to avoid steals, Lei Shui and Leonard played two to one, and the defender in front of him was Brewer, Lei Shui reciprocated, jumped high to attract Brewer's attention, and made a pick pass in mid-air, crossed the top of Gordon's head to give Leonard an empty catch, and directly blocked Brewer.

Brewer's dunk was capped, but in turn it was dunked, at this time it was already a face of capital and bold life, I guess I was thinking in my heart, the offense didn't run fast and was capped, the defense ran too fast and was dunked, and the bad luck happened to me.

D'Antoni also called a timeout at the right time to replace Brewer with Gordon.

The Spurs withstood the first wave of the Rockets' counterattack, the old man Bobo looked at Lei Shui, and thought: This kid, his personal ability is too prominent, in the past, the team used to formulate tactics to increase the power of the players, and now Lei Shui has strengthened the power of every tactic of the Spurs, and a person has multiple attributes, adapts to various playing styles, and has strength and influence.

On the court, after the Rockets made a substitution, there was a slight improvement in handling the ball, and Gordon came up and hit a shot.

At this time, the person who protected the thunder water was replaced by the Rockets' defensive titan Ariza, which shows how much D'Antoni attaches importance to the thunder water.

Ariza began to entangle Lei Shui from the moment he didn't catch the ball, Lei Shui repeatedly ran back to receive the ball, and Ariza immediately defended closely after releasing Lei Shui over half court, and his body's center of gravity dropped very low to prevent Lei Shui from suddenly accelerating to break through.

Ariza is now getting older and older, the speed has decreased, most of the defense relies on experience and prediction, Lei Shui dribbled forward, saw that Ariza still maintained the posture of preventing breakthroughs, immediately pulled up and throw, Ariza controlled his body very well, only stretched out his long arms to cover Lei Shui's eyes to interfere, the whole palm was almost attached to Lei Shui's face, this is the only way Ariza can interfere with Lei Shui, because the distance between the two plus the height of Lei Shui's jump, Ariza really wants to rush the ball, not even the elbow of the thunder water can reach.

But this kind of defense did work, Thunder Water's shot missed, and the Rockets immediately counterattacked quickly, scoring two consecutive points, and Gordon hit a long-range three-pointer.

Gasol has experience after all, and he deliberately said to Lei Shui when serving: "Don't rush to throw, I'll cover you, you play inside!" ”

Lei Shui nodded, and then went to the frontcourt, Gasol posted up to cover Lei Shui, and Ariza chose to go around the defense from behind, mainly because Lei Shui's shot missed, so that Ariza could decisively choose to prevent sudden shots.

Lei Shui came around, Ariza was only slightly slower than half a body, Lei Shui immediately accelerated to break through, Ariza slid sideways to cover Lei Shui, Lei Shui's stride was very large, and he could start with a sudden step, Ariza saw Lei Shui collect the ball and start, and immediately raised his hand to prepare to cut the ball, as long as the ball was picked up in the rules, as long as it was not over the waist, it was also counted as a ball player when it hit it, so defenders often chose this time to cut the ball, Lei Shui understood that he wanted to cut the ball as soon as he saw Aliza Yang's hand, and quickly grabbed the ball with one hand and pulled the ball far away, so that Ariza cut into the air, also fell a step away from Lei Shui, Lei Shui saw that there were already people under the basket to help defend him, so he leaned over and jumped outward, jumped into the air first, and then lifted the ball over his head with one hand while twisting his body, and quickly held the ball a little after turning his left hand to stabilize his hand, and gently pressed his wrist, and the ball was lightly hit into the basket.

Lei Shui's dodge is very large, and the control of the action in the air is also very stable, and the whole set of attacks shows very good coordination, D'Antoni can only smile helplessly and shake his head after watching it, this ball can no longer be defended.

The Rockets started to attack, and Anderson finally found an opportunity to take advantage of his small step back to make a mid-range shot.

The two teams played an offensive battle, although the Rockets improved a lot in terms of offensive efficiency, but they still couldn't contain the Spurs' offense, which can be said to be-for-tat, until the end of the third quarter was replaced by a substitute, the Rockets had a slight advantage, but this advantage was not obvious, and the difference was still 18 points at the end of the third quarter.

D'Antoni knows that although 18 points is a lot, it can be chased in his own offensive system, but the premise is that he must plan a wave of efficient offense to chase the difference to single digits in the middle of the final quarter, and three-pointers are the best choice for chasing points.

The Spurs are mainly stable, and the old man Bobo is also aware of the characteristics of the Rockets, although the first half is not accurate, but the third quarter has gradually adapted to the defensive intensity of the Spurs, and the feeling has begun to warm up, if you don't pay attention to it in the fourth quarter, it is easy to catch up, 18 points is not an insurance score, and the old man Bobo is still a bit of a psychological shadow for the Rockets, Maddie had a god-level performance of 35 seconds and 13 minutes in the Rockets, and the background team is the Spurs, Old man Bobo watched Maddie shoot through his nets again and again with three-pointers.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, it was still a substitute fight, or no up or down, until the main force came back, the Rockets first scored 5 points in a row to close the difference, and then Thunder Water first assisted Leonard to hit a shot, and then stopped Yan to shoot Ariza, and returned the Rockets with 4 points.

Seeing that time passed little by little, the score still failed to shrink, Ariza was a little anxious, at this time Lei Shui and Gasol coordinated a pass, Lei Shui rushed into the inside line to prepare for a layup, Ariza jumped high from behind and smashed Lei Shui's back, Lei Shui was smashed out of the bottom line with the ball, and from the referee's three consecutive quick whistles, you can hear how ruthless this time is.

Lei Shui fell off the field, and only stopped when he hit the ball rack, this time it was ruthless enough, Lei Shui was hit by a gold star, lying on the ground and couldn't get up for a while, the Spurs everyone hurriedly surrounded to see the situation of Lei Shui, at this time Ariza walked to the side without looking back, and the referee only gave an ordinary defensive foul, which made the Spurs very dissatisfied, and they stepped forward to theorize, Bobo Old Man was even more furious, standing on the sidelines and yelling at the referee......
