The Rockets went from 70 shooting in the opening quarter to 45 and then 30, when the Clippers' inside and outside line was fully opened, and the Rockets were already trailing the Clippers by double digits at the end of the first quarter. At the end of the first quarter, they set a 21-point deficit in team history, and once the Clippers' offensive power this season exploded, even if it was as strong as the Rockets, it collapsed, once again showing the Clippers' determination and ability to defend the title.

Commentators from all over the world have lamented that another 20-point win in a single quarter, and the Clippers' frequent massacres in this playoffs perfectly reflect the potential of this team. When they were in their boat, even the league's top defensive powerhouse was beaten to a rout!

Looking at it this way, the Thunder don't know if it's more comfortable?

Adelman repeatedly mentioned the poor Thunder to the players in the second quarter, because it did not involve tactics, the voice of the Rockets coach reached the ears of fans in front of the TV, and many Thunder fans were angry enough, and their feelings have now become the biggest negative teaching material?

However, what embarrassed the Thunder was that with their example in front, the Rockets players really did not lose their fighting spirit, and they maintained an attitude as a team, that is, even if they couldn't win the game, they must not lose by forty or fifty points.

In the second quarter of the game, Scola took out the momentum of the U.S. Championships that year, scored 4 points with free throws, Brooks was strong outside the three-point line, Weaver made a layup, and the Rockets bench group regained their power and teamed up to play a 9-0 mini-climax to narrow the score to 35-23.

The elder Dunleavy called a timeout, today he was quite prescient, knowing that his team's bench could not beat the Rockets, replacing Billups in the first quarter, and at this moment it was just the right time to send Mr. Key to stabilize the rhythm, and the Clippers also played a double point guard.

As soon as Billups came on the court, he immediately assisted Crawford on a three-pointer, which was the first time the Clippers scored in the second quarter.

Uncle Mu grabbed the rebound on the offensive end and hit a rebound, and Scola quickly made Amir. Johnson was fouled on defense and made both free throws. The Clippers' bench inside encountered Scola's technical flow, and they were still unable to parry in Game 5. In the first four games, the Rockets' bench almost beat the Clippers' bench, and if the Clippers' main team didn't get enough advantages, they really wouldn't have beaten the Rockets.

Crawford had a good hand today, after Billups came on the court, the Clippers' offensive rhythm was very good, Mr. Key did not stick to the ball at all, he let the whole team participate in the offense, so that Crawford, the only one, could pass two balls to his teammates and shoot without receiving the ball.

The reason why Ji Guoqiu has the first number of assists in the team, but he still can't replace Billups at critical moments is because he dominates the ball too much.

To be honest, if Ji Guoqiu hadn't relied on the help of telepathy, such a style of play would belong to the category of ball tyrants, and it is highly toxic!

In the history of the NBA, whether it is a point guard or a second or third position, the team with the ball as the core rarely wins the championship, or almost nothing. However, Ji Guoqiu has telepathy, although Billups thinks that this way of playing will make his teammates less motivated and unable to play team basketball to really mobilize the whole team, but this panda's ability to pass the gap is too perverted, and he is stunned to use the passing ability comparable to the top point guard to make up for his disadvantage of controlling the ball too much.

Coupled with the finishing ability of the fox brother, the Clippers were stunned to break the tradition of leading the team not to win the championship.

Some experts explained that it was because the Clippers had two ball tyrants, and the key was that the two ball tyrants did not have any discord, which made other teams helpless. Billups can only accept the unreasonable way of playing the two brothers, anyway, if he can win and win the championship, that is reasonable.

Billups made his own jump shot, and the Rockets' breakthrough was not too much, and after the two brothers went down, the Rockets guard began to break through to the interior in a row, causing damage.

Brooks's breakthrough ability is only stronger than Mr. Key at the moment, not weak, don't look small, and the confrontation ability is not very good, but Brooks's breakthrough relies on speed and technology. While speaking, Xiao Black Bean wiped Billups again, and the two of them scored with a difficult layup, which shocked the four!

"This kid seemed to be sitting next to me when he was drafted." Ji Guozhi recalled the experience of the original draft, Brooks was sitting next to him at the beginning, and he was looking forward to which team would draft him as much as he did?

"Brooks' peak was in the past few years, and he relied purely on speed to play, and once he had a few injuries, his athleticism was a little lower, and the threat was much worse." Ji Guoqiu felt that Brooks had better refer to Barria and become a surprise soldier in the bench period, but in the next two seasons, Xiaobu's state was really difficult for him to play as a willing substitute.

Brooks was in excellent form today, stealing Dragic on the defensive end, going down quickly and making an easy layup.

The score was 41:31, Brooks narrowed the score gap to ten points, the old Dunleavy couldn't sit still, looked at the time, it was only 8 minutes and 14 seconds in the second quarter, and the Rockets recovered the 11-point deficit in more than four minutes, and cut 17 points in four minutes, this attack is too terrifying!

The Clippers quickly swapped the animal brothers back on the court, using the two-man interior defense to stop the Rockets from continuing to wreak havoc under the Clippers' basket.

Yao Ming and Marbury are also back on the court, and the two of them have replaced Weaver and Mutombo, and the Rockets have kept Brooks on the court to play their playoff playoff duo of double point guards.

After Ji Guosha came on the court, he easily grabbed the rebound in the front court, and scored two points for the rebound, Brother Panda and Yao Ming were entangled, and Scola couldn't grab Ji Guozhi by himself, although he occupied a favorable position, he was still hit by the little fox's long arm and back to the basketball.

Scola said in his heart that I can't rob you with rebounds, and I can't kill you if I don't believe in low-post footsteps, so I hit the low post on the offensive end, causing Ji Guo's defensive foul, and his dazzling dream steps really shook the fox brother away, and easily deceived him into two free throws.

The Argentine actor glanced at Ji Guoyi and hit both penalties.

Ji Guoyi's defense of Scola is really painful, his mind is not very effective in dealing with this kind of guy who is full of feints, and players who can jump are easy to be shaken by feints, although he is much stronger than Little Jordan and others, but when he meets Scola he often can't help but fly, and then he can only helplessly watch the actor snickering below.

"Stupid, how many times have you said that if you don't jump, won't it be over? His height and reach are not good, and you can interfere with his layups if you don't jump. ”

"I know, but you can't block if you don't jump, this guy is shooting too high under the basket, so it's better to go out and be safe."

Ji Guo smiled angrily: "Then how many Scolas did you take in this round of the series?" ”

Ji Guoyi recalled for a moment, then became angry and scolded: "you Mabi." ”

Brooks and Scola played well during this time, and the Rockets handed them the ball in a row. Speaking of which, although the Rockets have always had superstars, their superstars are often absent due to injuries, but in recent years, the Rockets have always relied on the remnants to win, which is the power of collective basketball, so don't say that Van Gundy and Adelman are not at a good level, these two coaches often lead the Rockets without Yao Mai or only one of them to get the top four results in the West, can this be regarded as a bad coaching ability?

You know, in the past few years, except for Yao Mai, the Rockets really don't have any players who can take shots, and it can be seen from the rapid decline of most of these guys as soon as they leave the Rockets, not how strong their individual abilities are, but the Rockets' collective style of play and give full play to their abilities.

And the Rockets' ability to cultivate low-pick rookies is also at the top of the league, and in another time and space, Landry, Brooks, Lowry, Weaver, Hayes, Battinger, Dragic, Parsons, Ariza, these low-pick players all played at the peak level of the Rockets, and then all left

Ji Guosha suffered a loss on the defensive end, and resolutely hit back on the offensive end, Scola defended him even more, among all the physical options, the Argentines did not have the same advantage, Ji Guosha rarely forced his back to squeeze in, and his current weight of 235 pounds is no longer inferior to Scola's weight of 240 pounds.

The Clippers fans in the Staples Arena shouted the slogan "MVP" in unison, and now as long as the two brothers receive the ball and attack, the Staples Arena will definitely ring such cheers!

Ji Guoyi suddenly turned around, did not break through, but came to a sharp stop crotch dribble, and immediately shook Scola to the ground, and easily scored the ball with a backward shot.

"Haha, isn't it comfortable now?" Ji Guoshi looked at how cool it was for Scola who was shaken by him, he did not provoke Scola, he was purely talking to himself, using Chinese, and the other party could not understand.

The Clippers quickly stabilized the situation after the two brothers returned to the court, and Ji then broke through Yao Ming and scored on a dunk.

Scola made another dream step on the inside, but this time it was a timely mistake from his Panda brother, and the Clippers launched a counterattack, and Billups hit a layup.

In the last three minutes of the second quarter, the Clippers, led by the main lineup, regained a 12-point lead over the Rockets at 52-40.

Billups forced the attack to cause Marbury, and the assault inside caused Yao Ming to foul, which was the third foul of the Little Giant. However, Adelman did not replace Yao Ming, and now the Rockets cannot do without Yao Ming inside, and the three fouls must also stay on the court.

Mr. Key made two free throws and one hit, and Ji Guoyi grabbed the rebound in the front court again, but this time it has become David Lee who is opposite him, but the result is still the same, David Lee still can't grab the little fox.

Ji Guoshi made up the basket on the spot, and was interfered with by Yao Ming and did not score, but the rebound was grabbed by Brother Panda, who quickly hit the board to make up for the ball.

The two brothers grabbed rebounds in the front court in a row, or in the Rockets with Yao Ming on the court, Adelman did not dare to replace Yao Ming, in addition to using his offensive ability, protecting rebounds is also one of the reasons, but it doesn't seem to be of much use.

Yao Ming's face was not very good-looking, he had expected to be eliminated today, but he still had to fight hard. After so many years, he finally passed the first round of the curse, but he was about to be eliminated by his compatriots in the second round, Yao Ming felt quite uncomfortable. He knows he's getting old, he's going to be in his prime, this season is his best and he wants to go one step further this season.

But in this Jianghu, there are many talented people, such as James and Kobe, and if you want to win a championship, you have to go through countless failures, he doesn't think he is better than these people, but in the face of failure, he still has to do his best to fight.

At the end of the second quarter, Yao Ming, under the offensive of the Clippers, first made a jump shot, then beat Ji Guoqiu with his back, half-turned and hit a hook shot, and then suffered another foul, and scored six points in a row after hitting both free throws. But what made Yao Ming feel helpless was that the two three-pointers of Billups and Afflaro made all his efforts come to naught, and the score gap still could not be narrowed.

After Ji Guoqiu hit a three-point shot before the final game, the score was 64:50, and the Rockets trailed the Clippers by 14 points into halftime.

In the first half, Ji Guoqiu scored 13 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, Ji Guoqiu had 15 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block and 1 steal, Billups had 11 points and 4 assists, and Crawford had 10 points.

Yao Ming had 14 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Marbury had 8 points and 5 assists, Scola had 7 points and 3 rebounds, Brooks had 10 points, Battier had 3 points, Weaver had 4 points and Ariza had 3 points. R1152
