Chapter 496: The Third Battle

In the second game between the two teams, a total of five players were ejected, which illustrates the imbalance in the mentality of the Rockets players, who can't help the provocation of the opposing player's small actions and provocative words.

Battier and Ariza are good defenders, but they face the same embarrassment as the Thunder, who are outside defenders who can't pose much of a threat to the two brothers on the inside. Yao Ming did not show the dominance he deserved under the defense of the two brothers, and did not respond forcefully and loudly. These are all issues that the Rockets need to solve in the next game, because these problems are related to the victory or defeat of the game and the hope of qualifying.

It's not so much that the Rockets were defeated by the Clippers yesterday as it is that the Rockets were defeated by themselves. Because before the game, every Rockets player should know that the Clippers are going to play aggressively in the game, so they should hold their nerve and play their game smartly to find a way to win the game. But the Rockets didn't do that well, so they ended up losing the game, in a rather humiliating way.

Assembled in the training hall for practice, reporters were allowed to enter the venue at 4:30 p.m. Houston time.

The rockets in the field were busy, Mutombo had completed his shooting drill, sat on a chair on the sidelines and changed his shoes, as the main party to yesterday's incident, Uncle Mu was interviewed by reporters for the first time.

"I don't want to mention that incident again, the league chased him for a malicious foul, but didn't ban him, which is enough to say the attitude of the league, when did Fox get a ban for elbowing?". Uncle Mu obviously hasn't lost his temper yet.

Scola, another "victim" of the Rockets yesterday, was also after shooting practice. Calmly accepted an interview with reporters on the sidelines. I have a lot of experience in competitions. Scola, who has played in several leagues, did not react too aggressively to the incident. He just said that the Rockets need to play their game well, and his calmness is admirable.

Interestingly, the day before the game, there was a grapevine report that the little giant chased the animal brothers in Yao Restaurant with a piece of hard bread on May 8 and beat him violently. Of course, there are also news reports that in fact, it is the animal brothers who have teamed up to beat the little giant. And the reality is that under Yao Ming's angry gaze, the two brothers took four tickets and handed them to the sisters with satisfaction.

"Yao Ming is really interesting." Ji Guoyi held two tickets to the VIP room and two seats near the front row the next day. I think Yao Ming is really interesting.

Sitting in the private room was naturally Taylor. Swift and Emma. Roberts, as well as Ji Guoqiu's future father-in-law and mother-in-law. Two tickets were given to the little vampire and little Hermione. The two brothers said that this is very good, the seats are not close to the front row, and they should not be found by the director. "Well, hopefully"

"We have to strengthen our defense today, don't think that you can sit back and relax with a 0-2 lead, those guys who were overturned 2-0 are a lesson for you, because the team that relaxed and lost the game can't count on both hands." The elder Dunleavy routinely warned everyone not to underestimate the enemy before the game, "There are still fans outside who think that we will deliberately release water, just for a mere 20,000 tickets?" That's the biggest joke. Now let me tell them that 4-0 is what we want most. Shit release, we won't give them a chance, the champion team won't lose the game they deserve! "Old Dunleavy began to teach the players political lessons again before the game, and when the players are going well, it is inevitable that the idea of underestimating the enemy will be bred, which is an idea that must be extinguished.

Ji Guo smiled and said: "We haven't lost a game yet, so let's set the goal to win the championship and see if we will make history." ”

Ji Guoqiu also said: "Fox is right, there are more than 500 players in the league, we can get together and fight side by side, this is a rare fate, maybe one of us will leave next year, so it is necessary to let this team leave something in history, this is our precious memory." ”

Old Dunleavy felt a pain in the egg next to him, and said secretly in his heart: "The chicken soup for the soul of the two of you seems to be too much, I am my job, and this Nima is not making a movie, fate is a fart!" "But the black and hard guys are not as obscene as old Dunleavy, black athletes are easier to mobilize, especially Jordan Jr., giving him a bowl of chicken soup for the soul can work for a game, in fact, it is a good fool.

As soon as the Clippers came out, the best mascot of the season was holding a fox in one hand and dragging a panda in the other, of course, they were all fake, but this guy threw two plush toys in front of the Clippers bench, and then went up and chopped several kicks, which immediately made the two brothers half angry, no wonder the Lakers players couldn't help but go up and beat him, this bastard is really underbeaten.

The fire bear's provocation was not over, this guy stepped on it, actually squatted down and took out a small sign labeled beatla from two plush toys, and shook it in front of the Clippers bench without any scruples, it seemed that he wished that the Clippers players would also come up and besiege him.

Before the game, TNT reporters interviewed Adelman and asked the Rockets coach if the Rockets would be at a disadvantage after so many disputes in Game 2. Because there's a chance that the referee will be tougher today in terms of blowing fouls.

Adelman replied: "The referee's whistle will definitely blow tighter today and the players have to not cross the cordon. If the referee's whistle blows tighter, it will help the Rockets, you know, in the case that the referee can effectively control the scene, Yao Ming is a very difficult player to defend. The premise is that the Rockets must hand the ball to Yao Ming inside. ”

"In the last game of the Rockets, after Yao Ming and Scola fell into a foul crisis, the bench lineup used received good results, is it better for the Rockets to use that lineup?"

"Is that lineup going to be better than the starting lineup? No, that lineup was played with the Clippers also using the bench, and if the Rockets used the second team against the Clippers' first lineup, it would be very different. ”

"Will the Rockets continue to use a two-point guard lineup today?".

"We need to look at the situation, and we can do use a two-point guard lineup against the Clippers, but it depends on the matchup, and if Crawford plays a little longer, the Rockets can use a two-point guard lineup more at that time."

In the front row of the Toyota Center today, there is a guest who makes Rockets fans love and hate, and that is Tracy. Mcgrady.

Maddie came to the scene today in a brown suit to cheer on her former teammates.

The Knicks and the Celtics fought for seven games, and Maddy also averaged 22 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists per game in those seven games. Iverson almost toppled the Green Shirts, but unfortunately Maddie still failed to overcome his first-round fate. Allen's pivotal three-pointer knocked Maddie and Iverson out of the playoff stage.

James. Dolan was ready to sign a 3-year contract with the two of them with an annual salary of 10 million, and the maximum salary was not to be considered, but the two of them used their watch xiàn to earn a contract of 10 million yuan.

However, Maddie and Iverson have not yet confirmed to sign with the Knicks, because these two want to win the championship at the end of their careers, rather than retirement, so they are ready to see if there are Clippers, Lakers, Magic or something to seduce themselves in the summer, especially the small broken boat, they are fully capable of signing the two balloon stars together, that scene is too beautiful to watch.

Maddie did not go to Los Angeles in the first two games of the Rockets, but chose to recuperate at his home in Houston, and in this game, Maddie came to the Toyota Center to cheer on his former teammates. When the whole Rockets team was gathered together, Maddie sat next to him, shouting slogans with his teammates, and Yao Ming put his arm on Maddie's shoulder.

This scene made many emotional fans very embarrassed, Maddie stayed in the Rockets for three years, during which a large number of Maddie fans and McHei accumulated in China.

In the opening scrum, Ji Guoqiu played today, and still defeated Yao Ming lightly. The little giant doesn't matter if it's an older brother or a younger brother, whoever it is, he doesn't bother to jump.

The Clippers opened with a positioning cover, and Ji Guoqiu assisted Afralo to hit a mid-range shot to take the lead.

The two brothers intend to get their teammates into the groove first and get the most out of their teammates today, the two of them only attack at crucial moments today, and as long as they fully mobilize their teammates, their hopes of winning will be infinite. This tactic also has the advantage of holding the body and waiting until the third and fourth quarters to find an opportunity to deliver the fatal blow. Anyway, the Rockets are the easiest to drop the chain in the third quarter, and they are ready to start in the third quarter.

The Clippers' style of play was embarrassing for the Rockets, as their pre-game defensive set-up was aimed at the two brothers, and as a result, Billups and Afralo and Garcia frequently received passes and shots, and the most painful thing was that these three had good hands, and Adelman hurriedly called a timeout after less than three minutes.

With a score of 10:4, the score was not pulled away, but it trailed by 6 points in the opening period, which is not a safe signal for the Rockets. If they are not careful, they will go to double digits at the beginning, but they are 0:2 behind, and if they lose one more game, they will be completely declared over.

After the timeout, the Rockets stepped up their defense against the rest of the Clippers, with Ariza cutting to the basket and playing an aerial relay, and it was Marbury who passed the ball for him. followed Ariza to steal Ji Guoqiu's pass and help Yao Ming shoot well, and the Clippers played a 6-0 counterattack with the excellent play of the Lakers veteran, replacing the Clippers with a dismount.

Ji Guoyi scored his first goal after the opening kicker on the offensive end with his back and back. The so-called critical moment offense refers to this time. Then the little fox used the breakthrough to score 4 points in a row, and scored six points in a row to help the team exceed the score again, and the superstar strength was fully displayed.
