After the game started, the Rockets had a mediocre hand, their three-point game continued to hit iron, and the Celtics scored on the counterattack many times.

The Rockets' style of play is pure, either three-point or inside, and they rarely shoot from mid-range, which makes it easy for them to get into trouble when they don't feel good.

This was the case in the first quarter, with Harden, Gordon, and Ariza staging a feast of iron.

The Celtics quickly pulled the score away in this kind of iron.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 20-34, and the Celtics led by 14 points.

But the reason why the Rockets are ranked first is because they are very good at chasing points in the face of adversity.

In the second quarter, the Rockets' touch returned, and Harden began to get into his rhythm.

stepped back for three points, made fouls and stood on the free throw line, and assisted the interior to frequent empty catches!!

The Rockets took off completely with Harden in charge!!

At the end of the first half, the score was 60-57 and the Celtics went from leading by 14 points to trailing by 3 points.

The rocket's attack power is powerful at a glance.

........

Although Zhao Yong has gained the attention of the head coach, his actual status has not risen much.

There are too many people for the Celtics to be able to play.

The first quarter was too smooth, Stevens was playing with a lineup he was familiar with, and in adversity in the second quarter, Stevens had been carrying the main lineup on the court, and he didn't think of Zhao Yong at all.

This also caused Zhao Yong to not get playing time.

The long-awaited domestic fans began to scold again in the live broadcast room.

They were looking forward to the appearance of Zhao Yong and Zhou Qi with joy, but neither of them played in the first half.

"Zhao Yong rarely has a chance."

"I don't know if there will be any hits today."

'The manager still doesn't trust him enough.

"No way, there are too many young people in Celtic, and there are a lot of players that need to be developed."

"What the hell is Brown and Tatum playing, one of the two scored 4 points and the other scored 5 points in the first half, and the performance was terrible."

"Zhao Yong was short-lived, and this game began to return to its original shape."

"Zhao Yong and Zhou Qi, my country's Wolong and Phoenix Chicks are also!"

Zhao Hei, who has always liked to watch jokes, has once again resurfaced.

Zhao Yong didn't appear and went black.

in the locker room.

When arranging the tactics, Stevens seemed to think of Zhao Yong: "Zhao, in the second half, you go up, you play the PF position, and if you have the opportunity, you will impact their interior line, their interior defense is very weak." ”

Zhao Yong nodded.

Brown came over and said to Zhao Yong: "Zhao, James Harden likes to play inside in a misplaced position, you have to pay attention to his offensive habitual hand is the left hand, try to guard his left side." ”

"Also, they basically shoot three-pointers and go to the basket, but there's one person who is the exception, Chris Paul, who shoots a lot of mid-range shots, and he likes to play misalignment."

Brown is a very enthusiastic person, and he is willing to explain some knowledge on the field to Zhao Yong.

"Okay, I remember, thank you." Zhao Yong replied.

Zhao Yong is still under a lot of pressure, the Rockets are not a traditional team, their interior rarely holds the ball and plays against the opponent alone, many times, it is their guards who often pick the opponent's interior line to play the wrong position, and then Paul and Harden are super masters who play the wrong position!

Although there was pressure, Zhao Yong was more excited.

In the second half, the two teams switched sides and fought again.

Rozier, Tatum, Brown, Zhao Yong, and Monroe were the Celtics' starters in the third quarter.

On the Rockets' side, there are full-projection starters like Paul, Harden, Gordon, Ariza, and Anderson!

Rockets' ball possession.

Paul dribbles forward.

The Rockets' tactics are not complicated, that is, the front line cuts in the air, and the guard looks for opportunities to block and dismantle.

Paul initiates a pick-and-roll with Anderson.

Anderson is a projection interior lineman, his cover is not solid, this time Rozier was not thrown away by Paul, and Monroe continued to follow Anderson.

Paul didn't have a chance to hit Monroe's misalignment, and Paul gave the ball to Harden.

As soon as Harden got the ball, the Rockets' players quickly looked for their position.

Harden beckoned Ariza for cover, and Ariza was brought up, and Tatum was taken away, leaving Zhao Yong to face Harden.

Zhao Yong didn't dare to be careless, and looked at Harden with open hands.

Harden was expressionless, watched the space open up, and immediately began to dribble under his crotch.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

If Zhao Yong has an advantage in defending Harden, it is that Zhao Yong knows Harden too well.

Combining Harden's talents, Zhao Yong is familiar with Harden's technical characteristics and offensive habits.

Harden's consecutive crotch dribbles didn't hit Zhao Yong's center of gravity.

Zhao Yong didn't get close, he was wary of being directly passed by Harden.

Zhao Yong can vaguely guess how Harden will attack.

Harden increased the change of direction, and suddenly, he burst towards Zhao Yong's right.

Zhao Yong then moved sideways, and he judged the right direction.

Harden and Zhao Yong's bodies collided directly!

"Bang!"

Although Harden has a strong physique, he is at a disadvantage when he meets the current Zhao Yong.

Harden's movement is out of balance, and Harden wants to collect the ball immediately and get it back to make a foul, and with his current exaggerated action, it will definitely make the referee blow the whistle.

But Zhao Yong is well aware of Harden's habits, and he does everything.

"Smack!!"

Zhao Yong directly cut the ball down and held it firmly.

Harden wanted to come over and steal the ball, but Zhao Yong pushed Harden away with his ass.

Harden was directly knocked down, and the referee didn't blow it.

"Haha, steal."

"It's too horizontal."

"It's a robbery."

"Harden tried to make a foul, but found that the ball was gone."

The fans at the scene were instantly excited.

Zhao Yong's steal is too exciting.

Others didn't dare to make a rash move when defending Harden, because Harden's foul making was too thief, but Zhao Yong just did it, and then succeeded.

Harden stood up with a depressed face...

Harden felt very uncomfortable, and his every technical move was predicted by Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong gave the ball to Rozier, and then ran forward.

Rozier gives the ball to Brown on the right.

Brown waited a little as he beckoned Zhao Yong's cover.

Zhao Yong lifted up, blocked Harden, and Brown broke through around Zhao Yong's body.

The Rockets changed defenses, Ariza switched to Brown, Ariza's defense was under a lot of pressure, and Harden's defense of Zhao Yong was not very active.

Brown gave the ball to Zhao Yong, who had the advantage of position.

Zhao Yongshun received a pass from Brown in the middle, did not dribble, adjusted his feet directly, and flew to the basket!!

Anderson jumped with his hands raised under the basket, but he couldn't interfere with Zhao Yong's movements.

Zhao Yong glides in the air and easily hits the cricket ball from a long distance.

60 to 59

TNT's Kenny Smith commented with a smile: "Charles, is this the legendary "flying pigs"? ”

Barkley shrugged his shoulders and said, "Honestly, this guy does deserve this title!" ”
