NO.14 in May.
All fans and players who ended the game are paying attention to today's key battle.
After the Celtics, Cavaliers, and Warriors have advanced one after another, the Clippers and Rockets are still playing.
This game.
If the Rockets can make an away game, then they will be eligible for a tiebreaker with the Clippers!
If the Clippers, like the Warriors and Cavaliers, finally defend their home court, then the Rockets will go home.
The thing is such a thing, it depends on who can become the final winner.
staples.
The huge arena was packed to the brim, and fans who were able to come to the scene chose to show up to support, which made the Clippers' box office explode.
In the locker room.
The expressions of the Rockets and Clippers players are a bit stern, and the pressure on their bodies is not small.
The Rockets wanted to win and finally entered the tiebreaker.
The Clippers want to end the battle, but facing the Rockets, they really can't guarantee that they can win.
It's not a psychological effect, it's just that until now, no one will be easy to bully!
Especially when their lineups are very close, no one dares to say who will win the game in the end.
Both coaches.
The pressure on McHale and Doc Rivers is even heavier!
They can all be said to have finally led the team to this point. Seeing that the series has reached the present, of course no one wants to go further.
To know.
During the regular season, there were already many voices saying that McHale should give up the position of coach to someone else!
Simply put, the Rockets are really playing well this season. The management originally had some ideas. With the record, there is no news for the time being.
Doc Rivers is much stronger.
In order to get him, the Clippers got them with the right to pick the ball and cash.
Furthermore.
Doc Rivers is a serious champion coach, but regardless of outside voices, he brought his son to the team, which is one of the pressures on him.
After all, his son's performance is really bad, he may be a role player, and he does not meet the expectations of him at all.
one more.
With Doc Rivers guarding the current luxurious lineup, if he doesn't come up with something, I'm afraid the Clippers management will have to consider something.
of course.
Judging from the direction of the next few years, his coaching position is considered stable.
To make a long story short.
Naturally, Qin Tao and the others will not let this game go. They just focused on maintaining their form today. After all, the Eastern Conference Finals will be played soon.
So I sat in the multimedia screening hall early, just waiting for the game to start.
on screen.
Players from both sides have already started warming up, and their match will be after the appearance ceremony.
For this game, Qin Tao and the others didn't continue to be optimistic about anyone, they just focused on being their fans.
soon.
With the starters of both sides entering the arena one after another, the focus battle kicked off.
jump ball.
Little Jordan tried his best this time, just to compete with Howard!
The final result was also very gratifying, he simply and neatly gave the team the ball.
As for Howard, I don't know if he was too tired last night and didn't look so energetic.
But the game has just begun, Howard may just love someone, let's start again.
Paul held the ball and came to the frontcourt with his teammates, and then saw Redick start his gallop all over the court!
His off the ball is very good, it can be said that among the catch and shoot players in the league, he can rank in the top five!
At this stage.
With the opportunity made by his teammates for him, Paul passed the ball over immediately, and Redick took the ball and it was a shot.
pity.
It felt cold when he first played, the basketball came out of the basket, Howard got in the position in time, and firmly controlled the rebound.
Easy to fight again.
The Rockets' tactics this time are still clear, which is to focus on Howard.
Because of his tough performance in the last game, this gave outside players a lot of opportunities!
Especially his core partner James Harden.
The number of shots he took in the last game was obviously one-third less, but the hit rate was really good, reaching more than [-]%!
This is really a very scary thing for an outside player.
According to the [-]% hit rate, if only two points are counted, then twelve points will be scored.
Coupled with Harden's good touch style of play and his iconic step-back three-pointer, it is very normal to be able to score more than 30 points in a game.
At this moment.
Howard went straight to the inside, and his generous body kept Jordan behind him, and the pressure on him was not too great.
Jason Terry got it in place at the first time, and then opened up the space so that Howard could comfortably single out.
The others are naturally the same, opening up the space, but they are ready to catch the ball at any time.
Bang bang bang! !
Howard's back was very threatening, and Jordan couldn't help but back up with such a tough body.
have to say.
After the previous matchup with Qin Tao, Howard practiced harder.
His current figure seems to be a little thinner, but only after actually facing him can you know how strong he is.
And Jordan, who is not at the same level, wants to defend. The best time now is when Howard is attacking.
then.
The moment the opponent makes a move, relying on his super talent, he directly rolls him down.
But Howard is not unaware of his strategy and style of play. He got tough and went straight to the end, without giving Jordan a chance to get up.
This is not.
A sideways small hook easily scored points for the team.
Section one.
With the players of the two teams in good condition and shooting, their points on the field alternated with each other, and the offensive end played very well!
That's their rhythm and style, and that's what some fans like about them.
and so.
The score in the first quarter was not enough, the Rockets relied on Howard's push, and then drove the outside players to hit, making them finally score 31 points.
The Clippers are not bad here.
Although Jordan was blown away by Howard, Paul and Griffin were very powerful.
One of them scored [-] points, and the other scored [-] and [-] rebounds.
Coupled with Redick's contribution, the Clippers finished the first quarter, and the score was fixed at 33 points.
For them, this score can be said to be normal.
And although the defense is not good, it can be regarded as suppressing the Rockets.
However, with the start of the second quarter, after the two sides put in a rotation lineup, the Clippers are a little bit of a pull-up.
Although a Jamal Crawford can make a huge contribution to the team, if others don't play, it's the same as not having an advantage.
The Rockets directly suppressed the Clippers in the first 5 minutes because of the sudden outbreak of Corey Brewer, the commander of the cavalry company.
The point difference was widened to eight points by the Rockets. After a timeout, the Clippers were forced to switch to the starting lineup ahead of schedule.
