Chapter 989 Consecutive Month Best
At the beginning of the game, the Rockets, who were playing at home, frequently took advantage of Duck's slow moving speed. Harden and Round Faced used the pick-and-roll to hit him.The cards are constantly going down to hit the basket.
On the Thunder's side, because of poor outside shooting, the opponent began to shrink to protect the basket.
PJ Tucker is only 198cm tall, but he is very strong, with a low chassis and sufficient strength. He really pushed Patterson outside the penalty area, protecting rebounds time and time again, and defending from position 1 to position 5 , Anyone dares to guard against, with an unscrupulous aura.
The Thunder fell behind and immediately made personnel adjustments.They replaced the duck eggs with Grant, and let the 203cm Grant play the center forward!
This is simply unbelievable.On the defensive end, once the card and Harden pick and roll, immediately switch defenses and dismantle the opponent's defense.
Harden let the card go to the low position to eat Xie Kai, but the card couldn't stand the lowered Xie Kai, which surprised the Rockets fans at home.
In the past few seasons, Card has gradually grown into the league's top pie-eating master.With the sense of eating cakes, he is really a leader among insiders.But his shortcomings have been exposed for a long time. He has no projection, his center of gravity is a bit high, and he basically has no back-up ability.On the defensive end, he is indeed a representative of an excellent insider in the small ball era with his excellent movement and blocking ability, but the single function on the offensive end makes him also easy to be targeted.
If the card does not move, the ball will be cut off. If the elbow clears the way, it will be an offensive foul by the opponent.This made him a little at a loss, because he found that he, a big center, couldn't beat a defender.
Xie Kai is not an ordinary guard, he is a top perimeter defender who has been selected as the league's first defense for many consecutive seasons.
The card's offensive technique is too simple, so that Xie Kai can misplace him to defend him. As long as he is not allowed to be in the basket, and he is not allowed to play alley-oops, it is very difficult to basically get in.
The Rockets were forced to choose to let Harden and Gordon play singles because the opponent adjusted their defense.
On the offensive end, the Thunder is Patterson to open up the space, thanks to players who can play any Rockets.Harden and Tucker are too slow, he can pass in one step.House's defensive habits and sense of position are poor, so the heavy responsibility of defending him falls to Gordon.
Gordon is not a defensive champion either. Xie Kai can also use Patterson and Grant to pick and roll, misplaced cards, and single-handedly hit Gordon.
After the card went down, Nene came up, which made Xie Kai infinitely targeted.Today's big center is indeed difficult. The opponent plays a space lineup and picks and rolls with a space big man, which forces you to choose one of two bottles of poison.
Attack Xie Kai, that is to let the other side play 4 vs 3. Think about it, there are two giants, Westbrook and Pickled Pepper!
But if you don't flank, you will be killed regardless of the fact.The Rockets do not have a perimeter defensive gate, which is an important reason why they are not as good as the Warriors.
Xie Kai will play harder when facing potential opponents in the playoffs. Some experts believe that he is putting pressure on his opponents.Give the opponent a great sense of frustration in the regular season, and when the two sides meet in the playoffs, they will have a great psychological advantage.
In this game, Harden also played very well. He alone could not defeat the Thunder, who were above them both offensively and defensively.
In the first half, the two sides were still able to play inextricably.In the second half, when the physical fitness of both sides declined and the Rockets failed to make 3-pointers repeatedly, the balance of victory moved in the direction of the Thunder.
Xie Kai played efficiently in the whole court. Whether it was controlling the field or attacking individually, he was very strong and made it difficult for his opponents to parry.Westbrook and Paojiao played normally, everyone played very reasonably, and the possession of the ball was not overly concentrated.
By the end of the last quarter, Harden on the Rockets side was already very tired. He had already frequently shot 3-pointers from the outside, and he didn't move very suddenly.
The outcome of the game was completely divided. The Thunder finally defeated the Rockets 112:103 in the away game, won the Christmas game, and achieved 6 consecutive victories.
After 6 consecutive victories, the Thunder's record came to 30 wins and 3 losses, continuing to rank first in the league.
After this game, those who supported the Rockets to win the championship still felt that the home team had the strength to fight because Paul was not there.Of course, in that game in November, they lost even worse with Paul.
But one must always have some hope, otherwise life is really meaningless.
