Chapter Seventy-Nine: Progress (Two Watches for Flowers)

No one knows what Barkley and Smith are in, but the heart is in the heart, and the game that should be played still has to be played, and it will not stop because of someone.

Next, the third quarter lasted about five minutes, and the score on the court came to 67-59, and the Cavaliers led by eight points.

At this time, Barkley began to be nervous, this will be only seven minutes away from the third quarter of the game, although there is still time, but the state of the rocket during this time can be described as very hot, although only to recover one point, but the state is indeed very good, otherwise how can it win back a point?

On the other hand, Smith breathed a sigh of relief, although the Rockets did not reach his profile, but they were not pulled away from the score, which is also an acceptable fact for Smith, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

The Cavaliers' timeout can be said to be very timely, when the Rockets are about to take off, this can be said to be a very critical timeout, during the pause, the Cavaliers will definitely arrange some corresponding tactics during the period, they will not let the Rockets close the difference, let alone let the Rockets reverse the situation again.

Similarly, the Rockets want to turn the situation around in the next time, even if they can't turn it around, they don't want the opponent to further widen the difference, so that the opponent can enter the fourth quarter with a big score advantage, at that time they will be in a desperate situation, and there is almost no hope of turning the tables, so the collective players of the Rockets refuse this situation to happen.

The timeout came back to the Cavaliers' possession.

Huang Jun held the ball, quickly advanced to the halfcourt, and faced the defense of Brooks, who had been performing very well from the beginning of the third quarter to the present, but Huang Jun did not take Brooks, who was not very defensive, in his eyes.

Brooks has no strength, only a kind of madness, and the defense is even more non-existent, not proportional to his offense, it can be said that he has nothing else to make Huang Jun look at except speed, and in terms of speed, he is not Huang Jun's opponent, so Brooks obviously can't bring any threat to Huang Jun.

So Huang Jun directly used a pure speed change of direction to pass Brooks, who was very bad at defense. Huang Jun, who passed Brooks, directly held the ball and stabbed into the basket with an acceleration, and the Rockets directly came to a contraction, obviously trying to use a contraction to deal with Huang Jun.

Huang Jun looked at all this, and his heart was still shocked, did the rocket really dare to do this? Didn't he know that he could pass the ball and was not afraid of his own passing? A thought flashed through Huang Jun's heart.

Since I'm not afraid of my own passes, I'll let him see how powerful my passes are. Huang Jun, who made up his mind, did not make any doubts and stabbed directly into the inner line, and did not give up rushing into the inside because of the contraction of the other party.

As soon as they broke through, they directly surrounded and surrounded Huang Jun in it, and just when they were about to completely encircle Huang Jun without leaving any space, Huang Jun directly passed the ball without looking at the person, and passed the ball backwards without looking at the person.

And James rushed straight from the side, took over the pass, and completely tore apart the Rockets' defense, and the Rockets' defense at this time was almost all holes, which was the consequence of shrinking the defense and wrapping Huang Jun.

Fortunately, James is their strict defense object, and it doesn't make James completely in the object of no defenders, but is it useful? Let's not forget that he's not an easy scorer, he's a very versatile small forward, so he can pass the ball as well.

James naturally couldn't give up such a good opportunity, he didn't think much about the ball and sticky the ball, and passed directly to the outside, due to the contraction of the defense, the defense of the outside Battier just had a very good opportunity at this time, James naturally saw all this in his eyes, did not hesitate, directly laterally transferred, and successfully transferred the ball to Battier's hands.

This is already Battier's game in this section, the second time he has encountered such a good opportunity, and naturally it is impossible to let go of this good opportunity, Battier, who received the ball, looked at the defenders who were still a little distance from him, adjusted directly on the spot, and then calmly threw the basketball in his hand.

Rainbow-style arc, very beautiful arc, directly into the net, three-point shot. In doing so, the Cavaliers stretched the margin from eight to a double-digit margin of eleven.

Obviously, the Rockets' defensive tactics this time can be said to be a very failed defensive tactic, they are betting on the feel of the other players of the Cavaliers, so as to let Huang Jun pass the ball unscrupulously, and the final result proves that their defensive strategy is a failure, but whether the Rockets will give up this defensive tactic. will be key. It's what people expect.

Coming back, Brooks made a slightly careless pass, which was directly cut off by Huang Jun, and then completed a quick counterattack, with an extremely easy blue for the Cavaliers to score two points again, so that the score difference came to a thirteen-point difference in one fell swoop, and it was only a small step away from the point difference that Barkley expected, but even if it was reached, it was necessary to maintain the point difference until the end of the third quarter of the game to win.

Barkley on the commentary stage was slightly relaxed at this time, although he was not completely relaxed, but compared to just now, he was obviously more relaxed than just now, and Smith began to get nervous, he didn't expect that the score difference would come to thirteen points so quickly, and the last fifteen points of infinity were infinite, and it was obvious to lie to a three-year-old child if he was not nervous.

Brooks also regretted his pass just now, completely careless or it can be said that he completely underestimated Huang Jun's ability, so he will definitely be more cautious in passing the ball in the next game time, for fear of being stealed by Huang Jun's lightning hand again.

Holding the ball to the half, Brooks passed the ball directly to Maddie, who had already been in position on the outside, and the ball really couldn't see Brooks's carelessness in the pass, obviously adding caution.

Maddie, who received the ball, did not immediately start attacking, but held the ball in one hand, looking at Battier staring at him in front of him, without any expression on his face, such Maddie is the most terrible Maddie, and holding the ball in one hand can be regarded as a kind of Maddie's posture endorsement.

Although Maddie didn't move much, but Battier didn't dare to relax or anything because of this, as a former teammate, he can be said to be very familiar with Maddie, and he didn't dare to say that he had an in-depth understanding, but he still knew the most basic understanding, so he knew how firm Maddy's offensive determination was at this time, and he couldn't relax at all.

Maddie held the ball, lifted it from the bottom up, raised it almost as high as his shoulder, and then suddenly took a tentative step, and Battier didn't seem to be moved by it, but continued to keep an eye on Maddie to prevent his next move.

Maddie saw that Battier was unmoved, and suddenly pulled it up directly on the spot and threw the basketball in his hand, Battier didn't expect Maddie to be like this at all, he really didn't expect him to pull it out, and he knew that he was not far from him.

This is Maddie's unsolvable pulling, you can never predict when his pullout will appear, his pullout can completely make a person * crazy, it is completely the mental torture of the defender, but you can't help but accept the mental torture from him.

Battier looked back at the ball and prayed in his heart that it wouldn't go in, but the truth wasn't because of someone's prayer that it changed direction. So the ball didn't go into the net because of Battier's inner prayer, but it was still a hollow net.

Seeing this, Battier was completely speechless, and his heart was also very incomprehensible and depressed.

However, this is just one of the many goals, and they don't think much about it, no matter how beautiful it is, no matter how impossible the ball or the unsolvable ball is just a two-point or three-point shot, so everyone scolded roughly, and didn't take it to heart, and turned their attention to the next offense.

However, the referee of Maddie's ball finally gave three points, and at the moment of the goal, he gave two points, but in the end, he looked at the video and found that he did not step on the line, so he finally added one point, that is, three points, so that the gap between the scores came to ten points, and the time was very sufficient, so the score difference at this time has not reached the point of peace of mind and despair.

The Cavaliers used Huang Jun and James' empty connection to add two more points to the Cavaliers, and this cooperation is just a microcosm of the whole game so far, and he and James have cooperated many times so far in this game. It's not just once or twice.

The Rockets are very helpless about the cooperation of Huang Jun and James, it can be said that the cooperation between the two of them can be regarded as unsolvable, a new kind of unsolvable, no matter who you defend, you will find the offensive gap and make the corresponding offensive choice, completely tearing the Rocket's defense apart, even if there is no chance, under the rotation of Huang Jun and James, the gap will be found.

Then the game went to the end of the third quarter with one minute left, the Rockets asked for a timeout, and the score difference at this time came to eighty-three to seventy, the Cavaliers led the Rockets by thirteen points, and after the timeout came back, it was still the Rockets' possession, and whether they could lead by fifteen points now would be the concern of Barkley and Smith on the commentary stand.

"It seems that we are both very dangerous, one step away," Barkley said, turning his head to Smith, who was very nervous now.

"yes, it's only one step away from winning or losing, and it's only a minute away," Kenny Smith agreed with Barkley.

"Let's see if the Cavaliers can successfully defend the next attack of the Rockets, as long as they are defended, then it will be very difficult for the Cavaliers to reach a fifteen-point lead," Barkley said, looking at the scoreboard.

Kenny Smith didn't go back to Barkley's words, but turned his attention to the Rockets' bench, and said in his heart, "It's up to you whether I can keep my reputation for the rest of my life, don't let me down, Team Rockets"

Apparently Smith would have started praying inwardly, but would it be useful? It's up to both teams to decide everything.
