"Ray, can you talk about Garnett? In the last game, you scored 12 points, but on Garnett you only scored 4 points! ”

"Ray, can you tell us your prediction for tonight's game? You beat the Hornets last time out, but David West is out, so what can you do tonight? ”

"Some people say you can only play downwind, isn't that true? Ray, can you give us an interview? ”

After the game last night, Leylin and the others flew to New Orleans.

After the game against the Celtics, they will have a road trip that starts with back-to-back games against the Hornets, then flights to Oakland, games against the Warriors, and finally Phoenix, before the Rockets return home after the game against the Suns.

After the game, Leylin also knew that he was facing doubts, especially Billingberry's evaluation, which made Raining a little annoyed. But Leylin didn't fight back.

But what I didn't expect was that it would have such a big impact.

Came to New Orleans, and there were so many reporters there asking yourself so many questions.

After waving his hand and refusing to be interviewed by reporters, Leylin walked into the locker room covered in sweat.

"OK, guys, don't think about the past, including the winning streak and last night's defeat, that's all in the past, all we have to do is take every game seriously and fight for a good spot in the playoffs, understand?"

"Understood!"

Leylin, like his teammates, shouted loudly there.

He hopes to wash away some people's doubts about himself through the competition.

"Ray, you're still starting this game, on the defensive end, I need you to be able to limit David West, and when the time comes, I'll give you offensive power, and use your actions to tell those guys who are broken in their minds, you, Ray, are a great center, a great interior player!"

"Rest assured, head! I'll make them reacquaint themselves with myself! ”

"OK, guys, get out! Kick their ass hard ......"

"Good!"

After a loud roar, the Rockets rushed to the court in high spirits.

The New Orleans arena was packed, and the last time the two teams met, the Hornets without David West, lost at the Toyota Center, and although Paul was strong, he couldn't save the defeat alone.

This time at home, the Hornets are bound to beat the Rockets in front of the fans.

Coupled with the new defeat of the Rockets, morale will be more or less problematic.

The continuous 22 consecutive wins seems to be a good record, but it also has an impact on the players, after all, they have been excited for more than 20 games, and they should be tired.

Syllable.

Jumping with Chandler, Leylin successfully dialed the ball to his teammates.

Amid the cheers of the fans, the game officially kicked off.

Alston handed the ball to Maddie after half-time.

Clang!

With Peterson's interference, the basketball smashed directly on top of the basket.

Uncle Mu jumped under Chandler's defense and moved the basketball to the outside.

After Alston received the ball, he hit a layup directly to give the Rockets the lead.

The Hornets missed the offense, and Raeling beat West to grab the rebound and assist Alston for a fast-break layup.

The rest of the game went on in an orderly manner, but the whole game did not go as the New Orleans expected, and from the beginning of the game, they took the lead and finally won by a big margin.

After the start of the game, the Hornets felt very poor and missed many attacks in a row. It wasn't until two minutes later that Paul snapped Alstom's fast-break layup to break the scoring drought.

Although the Rockets didn't feel good, they were barely able to score under the protection of Leylin's rebounds.

With three minutes left in the first quarter, the Rockets were 20-8 and 12 points ahead.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets were 24-16 and led their opponents by eight points heading into the second quarter.

Facing West's Raille, he made two shots in the first quarter, cut six points and three rebounds, and at the same time contributed a lot on the defensive end.

Just as Raelin was wondering how the media would tout himself after the game, the second quarter took a turn for the worse.

After a three-minute break, facing West, Leylin was first fouled by West, and the opponent hit two free throws.

Then he was pulled to a high position by West one after another, watching West shoot in the middle, although Leylin interfered, but the effect was not obvious. In the first quarter, West faced Rayling's defense and scored 10 points with free throws.

Raelin grabbed just two rebounds and picked up two fouls.

It was a world away from the performance in the first quarter.

However, the Rockets still returned to the locker room with a six-point advantage in the first half.

"Whew, Whew......"

With a towel on his head, Leylin was silent there.

He didn't know why he couldn't defend in the second quarter, but he couldn't guard David West. With the same defensive style and the same defensive attitude, why is there such a big difference in the results of the two quarters?

"Allright, hehe, Ray, don't be depressed, it's not your fault, he just found his touch. You did a good job in the first half, Ray, and you can play there in the third quarter. Is there a problem? ”

"Nope!"

Lei Lin replied dryly.

In the first half of the battle, he knew that David West's defensive ability was average, and it was okay to play strongly.

“OK！ Tracy, you didn't feel very good in the first half, I hope you can play more and not force your shots there, understand? ”

"Understood!"

Maddie replied lazily.

With just five of his 14 shots in the first half, the shooting percentage was a bit dismal under Peterson's defense.

“OK！ Guys, brace yourself and win this game in the third quarter! ”

"Good ......"

……

"This way!"

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Hornets missed the attack, and after Rayling grabbed the rebound, before he had a chance to pass it, he heard Alston's shout, and after handing the ball to Alston, Raelin quickly went down.

After getting to the basket, Chandler went straight to Leylin.

"Damn, you're guarding me?"

Relin asked, somewhat surprised.

"Yay, rookie! What's wrong? Are you afraid of me? ”

"I'm afraid of you?"

Listening to Chandler's words, Leylin smiled directly.

Then stuck Chandler there to open his hand for the ball.

Because at half-time, Adelman emphasized that he had given Reelin the opportunity to play strongly in the second half, so Alston saw Reeling asking for the ball and passed it directly to him.

It's not the first time he has played against Chandler, so after receiving the ball, Leylin directly carried Chandler there and played hard.

Seeing that he had reached the paint area, when Lei Lin was about to turn around, a black shadow rushed directly over.

", bag!"

After Lei Lin cursed secretly, he directly turned his back and jumped shot.

Clang!

The basketball smashed into the hoop and bounced high, and Chandler kicked his legs and grabbed the rebound.

"Uncle's!"

Looking at Chandler's smile, Leylin cursed secretly, and then quickly retreated, ready to defend.

While Paul was walking around the three-point line, West pulled straight to the high post.

"It's a pick-and-roll again!"

Lei Lin thought that this move was a big fire, but there was no way, this was a common offensive method in the alliance.

Leylin followed without hesitation.

After bobbing back and forth around West's side, Paul shook off Alston directly, and then went straight from West's right to burst into the basket, and Leylin made a lateral move to block Paul's forward path.

Bang.

With a blow to the ground, Paul handed the basketball directly into West's hands.

Swish!

In the face of Alston's defense, West hit the mid-range shot without any pressure.

The Rockets missed offense, and the Hornets made a comeback.

It's another pick-and-roll.

This time, though, Leylin kept a cautious eye. When Paul shook off Alstom, Leylin was still a stride in Paul's way.

As before, Paul handed the ball to West behind him with a single hit, and after West received the ball, he opened his hand and threw it.

"Ho ......"

At the moment when West shot, Leylin immediately retracted his legs and jumped up with a kick of his legs.

"Wow, that's a high jump!"

"This ball must be covered!"

There was an uproar in the arena in New Orleans.

West, who had just thrown the ball out at this moment, looked at Leylin and showed a look of horror.

"Attack!"

Syllable!

After Leylin yelled, he slapped the ball directly to the front court, and Maddie, who was on the outermost, turned around and rushed to the half court, and after receiving the basketball, he directly slammed the windmill.

BOOM……

"Oh, roar, pretty, the Rockets played a classic counterattack, from Ray's block to Tracy's slam dunk in no more than four seconds, I have to say, Ray's block is so wonderful! Thunder Bell Hot Pot, Ho Ho, Cool Name ......"

Hush......

There was an immediate chorus of boos in the stadium.

Although Leylin's block was shocking, and Maddy's slam dunk boosted morale, the outside shooting rate was not high, and Leylin faced a bag on the inside, and there was no chance to score at all, shooting 1 of 4 and cutting down two points. Although he had two assists, it was still to no avail.

At 14-20, through the first quarter of the game, the Hornets equalized the score.

The two sides went into the fourth quarter with a tie.

However, in the fourth quarter, an unthinkable twist came when Bunch Wells was traded out by the Rockets in February in order to get Bobby Jackson.

But on this night, if Morey watched the game, I believe he would regret it!

Wells, who scored only five points in the first half, took over the game directly in the fourth quarter, scoring 20 points on 7-of-7 shooting, and directly led the Hornets to a big comeback.

At 90-83, the Rockets tasted two straight defeats after a twenty-two straight win.
