Chapter 714: Shock!

When the players were resting, the Nets coaching staff got together and discussed for a while, and everyone immediately quieted down. () Some of them said a few words, and some of them started to think about their own things.

The idea of the game in the third quarter did not take much time when it was discussed. This may be a tacit understanding on the part of the coaching staff. Everyone knows that as long as the style of play is worked out now, there is no need to discuss it further.

At the end of the first half, the score was 77:67! The Rockets are still attacking the Nets with very good offensive efficiency! After a while, Chan went to the dressing room and spoke to the players.

The lineup on this end of the Rockets in this section is Blake, Anderson, Ariza, Tucker, Eric! On this side of the Nets, Quincy, Garnett, Jonathan, Jeremy Lin and Rose are separated!

Originally, Kevin and Rose only wanted one person to play, but the discussion here in the coaching staff meant to let two people go up, otherwise there would be no bottom in their hearts! Chen felt the need to do so.

If the team is unable to keep up with the Rockets in this quarter, then basically the game will end early in this quarter. Having both of them go up would also give the team, the coaching staff and even the fans in attendance a reassurance.

Rose took serve and slowly passed the half. This quarter, the players on the Brooklyn side know that the Rockets' offense may not be so sharp! This is one of their few chances!

The opponent's defense was still fierce at first! So Rose immediately stepped back and hit a three-point shot after a few seconds of whirling with Eric! 77:70!

The players on the Nets' bench immediately cheered! Maybe it's psychological, or maybe Rose and Garnett are very powerful, and the overall state of the Nets has changed a lot since they got on the court!

Ariza immediately returned a three-pointer after halftime! 80:70! The goal also dragged the Nets back immediately. The opposition did not slow down in any way after Rose's attack.

Lin took Rose's pass and played it up front with Tucker and immediately let the opponent get a foul! Then he walked to the free throw line and made 2 of 2 free throws! 80:72! At this time, Lin was also ready! That's to overtake the Rockets in this quarter!

He thought it was crazy to think about it! But he's going to try! The first is that your organization should be slightly reduced, and the offense will be more! Only the Nets can do enough damage in this quarter for the Rockets not to beat their morale right away!

Anderson's throw after taking the basketball was interfered with by Garnett! Quincy quickly takes the basketball and passes the ball to Rose! Jonathan received his pass in the front court and immediately scored three points into the net! 80:75!

This caught D'Antoni's attention, and he began to watch the game seriously. It seems that there are certain variables in what is in my heart. Immediately after Eric's three-pointer missed, Garnett got the rebound and passed to Lin! After receiving Jeremy Lin's pass, Rose went to the front court and hit the Nets for another three points! 80:78!

After playing almost two quarters with the main lineup of the Rockets, the Nets only trailed by 10 points! So when the Rockets changed to this lineup, there was a certain deviation in the state of the two teams. When the Nets were maintaining efficiency, the Rockets had some problems when they didn't score.

The difference was narrowed to 2 points all at once, which also made D'Antoni a little anxious! However, he suppressed his emotions and patiently assigned tasks to the players. His personal feeling is that Anderson has been playing for a little longer, so it has led to a weakening of his defense.

"Zhou Qi, you and Blake should pay more attention to Garnett. If you don't have enough accuracy in the process of attacking, immediately follow the tactics I just mentioned......"

The cheers rose again as the game returned. Chen looked up and saw the Great Demon King appear on the field! The Nets haven't changed much.

Ariza took the basketball and used his body to force through Jonathan's defense and made a layup, but the basketball came out again after a circle! Kevin jammed Zhou Qi and dribbled a few passes to Lin after taking the basketball.

After the atmosphere on the scene began to heat up gradually, Jamie Lin didn't think much about it, and directly jumped and shot an ultra-long-distance three-point hollow into the net!! 81:80!

Jeremy Lin, who watched Jeremy Lin suddenly explode on the New York Knicks, is now surpassing the Rockets he currently coaches with the Nets! Brooklyn is starting to overtake each other now!

Neither Jemilin nor the Nets players on the floor expected this! Eric immediately passed the half court with the ball, and Ariza received a quick pass from the basketball feigned offense, and Zhou Qi immediately hit a 2-point jumper! 82:81!

If the two teams get into a stalemate, it may be beneficial for the Nets! It's better than falling behind the opponent by about 10 points again and entering the fourth quarter!

Jonathan held the ball for half the court, and Ariza gambled correctly guessed Jonathan's next move and cut off the basketball in his hand and immediately went to the front court to score points! 84:81! The Nets didn't seem to last much of their lead for long......

The Rockets coach also knows that his team is now starting to change tactics! From a team that plays with a dynamic and multi-sided, it is now a team that relies on cooperation to score points!

Jonathan was directly blocked by the big devil in a sudden jump shot! There was an exclamation at the scene! After Tucker got the basketball, he quickly went to the front court and hit the board directly into the basket! 87:81!

"Let's not rush too much," Lin said to his players. He found that the Rockets' current style of play was starting to become more patient. And they're on the upswing.

After Lin held the ball to the front court, he immediately faked and shook off Eric and scored points after a jumper! 87:83! Ariza was cut off by Rose as soon as he took Tucker's ball! Jonathan got Rose's pass and quickly went to the frontcourt, and Garnett took his ball from behind and immediately scored a layup!

Zhou Qi got the basketball and passed it to Eric after a few seconds of confrontation with Garnett. The latter hit a direct three-point shot! 90:85!

Rose observes the current Rockets, whose offense in the frontcourt is interfered with by Tucker! Zhou Qi immediately got the rebound and was directly cut off by Jonathan in the process of passing! Garnett takes Lin's pass and throws it to score! 90:87!

103:100! The Rockets had a three-point advantage over the Nets heading into the fourth quarter. Chan affirmed the players when they returned. Let's have a good fight with Houston in the next game!

"Remember what I said, don't be too obvious about the intention of attacking. The opposing players are smart people, and they will be ruthless when they learn about your simple offensive style, and now it's going to be the playoffs, and it's going to ......be the last game of the Eastern Conference Finals."

The Rockets who came back in the fourth quarter were Blake, Capela, Anthony, Paul and Eric! On the Nets side of the net are Mozgov, Garnett, Williamson, Jeremy Lin, and Crabb!

Garnett unexpectedly let Chan stay on the court! He now feels like Brooklyn needs a veteran here to be on the field, maybe to make the team a little more consistent.

Eric got the ball to the front court, Paul took his pass and didn't have a three! Williamson got the rebound and went to the frontcourt, and he didn't have three points! Everyone ended the two rounds of the contest in a somewhat embarrassing situation......

Paul said something to Capela after he took the ball. Then slowly to the frontcourt, Capela took the basketball and quickly passed the ball to Anthony when the Nets thought he was going to attack! The latter immediately hit a 2-point shot on the line! 105:100!

Brooklyn can't afford to make too many mistakes right now. They've also experienced what Chen said before the game. Crabbe passed the half, Lin received his pass and immediately stopped and turned around to shoot a three-point jump into the net! 105:103! Eric looked at the basketball a little dazedly and then turned around and walked back......

Anthony took the basketball, Capela took his pass and was solidly covered by Williamson as he jumped! Williamson, who was in the air, immediately jumped up and took the basketball, rushed to the front court with the ball, and immediately hit a three-point shot when the opposing defender did not return! 106:105!

This is when the competition starts to get exciting! Somewhat similar episodes from the previous section reappear! But now the Nets can call the Rockets on the board!! And here in Houston there is no realization of this!

Paul went to the frontcourt, and after the three-pointer was missing, Garnett took the rebound and passed the ball to the nearby Crabbe. Chen was already a little tired when he saw the wolf king on the sidelines! Just as he was thinking about when to replace him, Mozgov didn't choose to go to the basket in the bottom corner, but jumped up three points and went through the net! 109:105!

The referee saw D'Antoni first and signaled for a timeout. After sweeping Chen's head with his eyes, the game entered a timeout.

"Speed~" Chen thought in his heart, and when he saw that the players were back, he immediately began to talk.

"Defense and offense, I said a little bit in the third quarter. I've also talked about this game, so I'm not going to talk about it. The key, Egyptian Dius, come here. Let's see, the key is to pay special attention to this point and the two points on the outside......"

The Rockets replaced Eric with Harden during the timeout, and Nets head Garnett was replaced by Egyptian Deyous.

Harden came back and passed the ball to Capela. Under Mozgov's defense, Capela dunks and scores! 109:107!

Lin held the ball over half court, and Egypt's Dius immediately took his pass and let Blake get a foul and successfully played 2+1! 112:107! Rockets are starting to get a little anxious now!

Harden carried the ball to the frontcourt and didn't get a foul when facing Lin's defense...... Williamson immediately came over to help defend in the confusion after jamie Lin cut off Harden's ball to the frontcourt, and did not look back at the Rockets player behind Lin immediately jumped up and hit a three-point shot! 115:107!

After this three-point shot, he felt a little lighter all of a sudden. As if victory was not far off. He wished it had stayed with him more.

Paul used his footsteps to shake him off at Crabbe's and jumped straight into the net with 2 points! 115:109!

The Rockets' offense is now starting to get a little monotonous. Not as fierce and efficient as the first half! Williamson held the ball to the front court, and used Egypt's Diyus block to block the melon at Anthony's and directly deduct the points directly! 117:109!

This dunk almost sent Capela out of anger! But Williamson spotted the signs and immediately ran to the other end. The Rockets players immediately went over and talked to him about something. Capela really wanted to stop him! But the rhythm of the two people is different!

However, Williamson's body still scratched him. Two people almost fell to the ground! It's funny enough that the referee didn't blow it. Harden took Anthony's serve and went to the frontcourt and hit a three-pointer under the bag of Lin and Crabbe! 117:112!

There are still 5 points left in the difference! Not much for Team Rocket! They're also waiting to see if the Nets can make some mistakes or something. Crabbe rushed in at Lin's head and threw in to score! 119:112! Paul went straight to the front court and hit a three-point shot!

Williamson was cut off by Harden when he held the ball across the halfcourt! But he didn't score three points! Williamson had already rushed over at this point! After taking the basketball, he increased the length of his pace in the alignment with Harden, quickly passed him to the frontcourt, and immediately hit a three-pointer! 122:115!

......

"I don't quite agree with you, the Rockets are still very capable right now. As you know, I don't mean anything else here in Houston. They have been working this part of the West. However, they never beat the Spurs and the Warriors. But they can beat the Warriors in the regular season! I think this proves that their ability is not weak. ”

Chen happily answered questions from reporters at the press conference. Today's press conference feels like a lot of people! Some Nets players were also interviewed by reporters after the game!

129:123! The Rockets didn't overtake the Nets in the end! And so the game ended. Neither team had a very high shooting percentage in this quarter. However, Brooklyn's side has maintained the suppression of the Rockets!

"So coach, what are your thoughts on the Rockets' loss today?"

"Actually, in the last minutes of the game, I wasn't sure I could beat them today. Winning the Rockets, I think we didn't relax in front. You know, what the consequences will be if we relax~" The reporters at the scene immediately laughed.

"In the latter part of the game, you said that the Rockets lost this game, I think it should be that their accuracy was not as good as in the first and second quarters. I can still feel the intensity of this game. Later, I don't think it will be too sad for any team to lose. It's just a regular season game, so it's still crucial for us, but for the Rockets, I think losing a few games shouldn't be ......."

Capela got 9 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks in this game! Anderson had 18 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, Anthony had 23 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and Paul had 26 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists! Harden 27 points, 5 rebounds and 3 steals!

By now, the Nets are a little unsure of why their team won...... The players played with the mentality of fighting each other at every stage of the game! It's not easy to really win against them! And in such a situation, what Team Rocket feels is that no matter how much they fight, they can't destroy the morale of the other party!

Brooklyn didn't go into mad dog mode, but the players' state and efficiency at some times were enough for the Rockets to drink!

Mozgov 10 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists! Garnett had 8 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists, and Williamson had 21 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists! Jeremy Lin 33 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists! Rose 30 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists!

This game mainly relied on Jeremy Lin and Rose to score points! Their constant breakthroughs keep the team from opening up too much of the opponent's point difference! The other players did well, too.

In such a situation, Williamson's score is not so conspicuous. But his role in the team can still pose a big threat to the opponent!
