At the beginning of the second quarter, while Anthony was not on a firm footing, Gao Dazhuang used a sharp breakthrough to break into the Knicks to make Chandler's defensive foul, and hit both free throws to help the Rockets take the lead.

Then the tall and strong received Morris's ball from the baseline and hit a three-pointer unguarded.

However, Anthony continued to maintain his strong offense in the first half, and soon hit a half-volley with a probe step, and in the following games, Anthony kept showing his offensive skills in front of the tall and strong while taking full possession of the ball.

In addition to the undefensible probe offense, Anthony has strengthened the strong offense under the basket, although the tall and strong physical fitness, strength, burst, and bounce are not weak, but Anthony's swift first step and spin action still allow him to easily shake off the tall and strong defense, and frequently hit the inside line of the rocket, this kind of "washing machine" spin like offense makes the tall and strong miserable.

Anthony is more lethal after cutting inside than on the perimeter, which is also where Anthony is superior to Kobe, LeBron, Wade and other super scorers on the offensive end.

Because Anthony can rely on his height, weight, explosiveness and other advantages to play like a big forward in the paint area, or dunk or throw or small hook, "Melon" Anthony has a variety of scoring means under the basket.

The league is admiring James's physical **, and compared with the "little emperor", Anthony is not inferior at all, with a height of 2.03 meters, an arm span of 2.13 meters, and a weight of 230 pounds.

In the face of Anthony's strength, Rockets coach McHale once again called for a timeout and strengthened the package on Anthony after the timeout.

However, Anthony soon made offensive adjustments, and it was difficult for a player of his caliber to be completely limited.

After the Rockets changed their strategy, Anthony stopped attacking in a hurry after receiving the ball, but stopped to steady his rhythm, and then held the ball ferociously against the tall and strong, using his arms to carve out territory for himself.

This move, like the probe move, can create space between him and the defender, giving Anthony more offensive options.

Anthony has to take anything he does to move the defense seriously because anything he does is a threat.

Anthony, who grabbed space, could give full play to his offensive talent, and in the face of the Rockets' interior line, Anthony began to use cross-step shooting on the outside.

Whenever Tall and Strong leaned to one side, Anthony crossed the ball to the other side and leaned back to shoot, and his every step, movement, head feint, body shift, etc., was perfectly done.

In fact, this kind of offensive routine is also good at tall and strong, but tall and strong prefer to take cross-steps in fast dribbling advancement, while Anthony's cross-step in place is more demanding for players in all aspects.

"Brush", "Brush", "Brush...... Anthony threw the ball into the Rockets' basket again and again, and his individual score reached an astonishing 34 points after halftime!

However, at this moment, the Knicks are 72-62 behind the Rockets by as many as 10 points.

The reason for the deficit was because the rest of the Knicks simply couldn't support Anthony, the 38-year-old Kidd didn't score 0-of-3 at the moment, Camby was 2-of-6, Felton was 2-of-9, and the other player who scored double-doubles was Knicks center Chandler, who only scored 11 points.

On the Rockets' side, Tall and Strong has become the biggest surprise of the Rockets today, and he didn't cause much trouble for Anthony on the defensive end.

But Anthony also did not prevent the tall and strong, since entering the league, Anthony has been criticized many times for not being good at defense, with Anthony's physical fitness and talent, he can become a defensive master at the same level as Kobe Bryant and James, but for this dirty work, "melon" Anthony doesn't seem to be very interested.

So in the game, Anthony did not stick to the tall and strong, but relied on the team's system to attack the stylized defense, and the tall and strong did not choose to keep hitting the interior like Harden.

In the face of Anthony's stake defense one meter away, Gao Dazhuang began to shoot the opponent on the periphery non-stop, but today Gao Dazhuang's hand felt very good, and the continuous shooting made Gao Dazhuang burst with confidence in medium and long-distance projection, even if it was 25 feet to 28 feet away from the hoop, Gao Dazhuang did not hesitate at all.

The tall and strong shot 4 of 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, and the 30-point score in the half well offset Anthony's madness, but the Rockets still have a "sharp knife" - Harden.

Harden was only 4-of-13 in the half, but he kept hitting the inside for free throws, and 9-of-11 free throws allowed him to score 18 points in the half.

In the second half of the game, the two sides still fought against each other.

With a "brush", Gao Dazhuang hit another three-point shot one meter away from the three-point line, making his three-point shooting in this game reach 6 of 7, and 33 points also set a record for Gao Dazhuang's career.

Although Anthony and Felton also scored back-to-back attacks, Harden and Tall Strong's counter-attacking scores quickly curbed the Knicks' counterattack.

The Rockets fired on the cheers of the home fans, and a 13-0 offensive run** extended the advantage to 23 points.

At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets led the Knicks by 24 points, 104-80.

At 7 minutes and 40 seconds in the fourth quarter, Gao Dazhuang hit another three-point shot, and the Rockets extended their lead to 29 points, and then Gao Dazhuang used two fast breaks to make his score reach a season-high 40 points.

In the face of the Rockets' crazy offense, the Knicks were powerless, and after Anthony missed several shots in a row, the Rockets replaced the tall and strong and Asik, and the game entered garbage time early.

In the end, the Rockets defeated the visiting New York Knicks 131-103 at home.

Knicks star Anthony shot 15-of-26 from the field and 10-of-11 from the free-throw line to finish with a game-high 44 points, 14 rebounds and 1 assist.

The Rockets' bench player Gao Dazhuang had a blast today, shooting 13-of-17 from the field, including 7-of-8 from three-point range and 7-of-7 from the free-throw line, to score a career-high 40 points and seven rebounds, but there were no assists in the game.

Harden, the core of the Rockets, shot 8 of 18 from the field, made an astonishing 13 of 15 free throws, and also got 30 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.

However, the Knicks and the Rockets' two best players did not appear in the post-game press conference, with Chandler, who scored a double-double in New York, and Jeremy Lin, the Rockets' "former New York point guard," participating in the post-game press conference.

"In my opinion, the team is doing well at the moment and we are completely in the right direction" Despite the loss, Knicks coach Woodson affirmed the team's performance in the previous period.

"We've got Kidd, Felton and Pregioni and they've helped the team a lot and have been very important to us, and Jeremy Lin is a thing of the past, we're moving in the other direction now, and we're going to want Lin to go well in Houston," Woodson replied to a reporter's question about Lin.

"It's just a commercial decision to let Lin go, I don't think it's going to be a tough thing to do," Woodson later added, "We just decided we wanted to go in a different direction, and I'm not looking at Jeremy Lin right now, I'm looking at the players I'm coaching."

Obviously, Woodson didn't want to talk much about Jeremy Lin, this game was the first time Lin faced his old boss, but Anthony and Tall Zhuang's crazy scoring stole a lot of the limelight from Lin, and his 13 points and 7 assists did not prove his strength very well.

Rockets coach McHale took the initiative to say to the media, "I think Jeremy Lin is playing better and better, this is one of his best games of the new season, and his organization is very good."

Jeremy Lin, who plays averagely, doesn't seem to be very interested, and said of his old club, Jeremy Lin, "The Knicks are a very different team, and I enjoy playing on the court with my former teammates."

Jeremy Lin then expressed his opinion on today's big win, saying that the team did a very good job of moving the ball, "We did a very good job of moving the ball, which is a big reason why we can play a smooth attack"

"Lin, what do you think of Anthony's performance in this game?" At this time, a reporter on the scene asked Jeremy Lin a question.

"He's a true leader of the Knicks and one of the best players in the league," Jeremy Lin said highly of Anthony.

"And what do you think of your teammate's performance in this game?" The reporter immediately asked.

"Uh" Jeremy Lin thought for a moment and said, "He's in the best shape right now, and I won't be surprised at what he's doing now."

More reporters then focused on the battle between Tall and Strong and Anthony, and after the game, the NBA officially announced the rookie of the first month.

Michael Kidd Gilchrist of the Charlotte Bobcats and tall Stout of the Rockets were named Inaugural Rookie of the Month.

Kidd Gilchrist was the only player to rank in the top 10 rookies in points (13.9 points, fifth), rebounds (6.5, sixth), assists (1.5, eighth), steals (1.2, fourth) and blocks (1.3, second), and he had a career-high 25 points and 12 rebounds in a Nov. 11 win over the Mavericks.
