Head coach of parallel imports in the NBA

Chapter 243 Intense

It is worth mentioning that Rockets main center Howard announced on the 4th of this month that he would receive a bone marrow puncture injection in his right knee. This season, Warcraft has missed eleven regular season games due to a knee injury. Now according to reports, if Howard receives the puncture The injection will also require a one-month break.

In the absence of these 100 games, the Rockets achieved a record of 111 wins and [-] losses. Even in the first game after the All-Star game, they faced the precarious Dallas at home, and lost [-] to [-] to the Dallas Mavericks.

In this game, the Dallas Mavericks also played the most beautiful game since Adelman got out of get out of class. Eight players scored in double figures to ensure the Mavericks' victory in this game.

On the Rockets side, although Harden became the highest scorer in the game, the team's performance was unsatisfactory, so after this game, Harden also encountered certain doubts.

I don't think he can lead the team to victory.

Especially in the face of Dallas losing, this is something that many Rockets fans cannot accept.

On February 2015, 2, the Timberwolves team arrived at the Toyota Center under the leadership of Da Zhuang. This was the third meeting between the two teams in the regular season this season. Carlisle, who played at home in this game, also hopes to win the game.

At present, the Rockets are ranked fourth in the Western Conference with 36 wins and 19 losses, leading Dallas by three games. It can be said that the Rockets are striving to get a good position in the playoffs. Can also break through the first round.

"We also contacted by phone yesterday. I told Chen that as long as we can win this game, I will take out a bottle of red wine that I have treasured for many years and invite him to taste it. I have brought the wine today. I I think there will be a great chance to open it." When Carlisle arrived at the Toyota Center, he also accepted the reporter's interview with a relaxed expression.

And the words revealed that he and Chen Dazhuang had a very good relationship.

Da Zhuang, who arrived at the Toyota Center shortly thereafter, was also told by the reporter what Carlisle said just now.

"Really, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in his bottle of wine, but I am very interested in the game. I think Rick will be disappointed today. I'm afraid I'll bring the wine back. But if He said that after the game is over, he is willing to take it out and let me celebrate the victory of the game, so I think I can try it."

Soon after the two sides entered the arena to warm up, there was still more than half an hour before the start of the game, and the two sides also returned to the locker room.

Da Zhuang also habitually turned on the system.

Within 10 minutes, the three-point shooting rate increased by 30.00%, and each three-pointer scored increased the speed by one percent and increased the defensive ability by three percent. (Shooting guard single buff.)
Within 10 minutes, all abilities in the three-second zone under the basket will increase by 15.00%, each offensive rebound will increase the small forward's three-point shooting rate by [-]%, and each completed block will increase the point guard's pass success rate by [-]%. . (center single buff)

Just these two red single-player buffs, but Da Zhuang thinks that facing the current Rockets should not be a big problem.

But when it really came to the game, Da Zhuang quickly overturned this idea.

In this game, the Timberwolves encountered a completely explosive Harden. Perhaps it was because of the questioned reasons that stimulated Harden. In this game, even though Middleton had a buff, Harden still fell into a slight disadvantage. .

From the very beginning of the game, Harden entered into a no-solution mode.

In the Timberwolves' first attack, Middleton used the cover to directly hit a three-pointer. Looking back, Harden received a pass from Terry and directly signaled his teammates to pull away. He wanted to single Middleton directly.

In fact, he did succeed. He directly faced Middleton with a three-pointer, and the basketball also hit.

Excited Rockets fans at the Toyota Center stood up and chanted Harden's name.

Response ball, a very exciting response ball.

It was the Timberwolves' turn to attack. This time the basketball was handed over to Oden. After receiving the ball, Oden hit Motiejunas a few times, and Jones immediately stepped forward to double-team him. He was sure that Sims had no three If Yi Jianlian was present, the Rockets would not dare to do this.

But it's a pity that they faced Oden who was in the same state.

Oden, who took the last push, observed Jones' movement, but he didn't pay attention to him at all. Instead, after turning around under his feet, he raised the basketball with both hands and smashed it towards the basket head-on.

Motaiyunas didn't expect that the opponent would dare to be so tough in the face of two double-teams, so his preparation was obviously insufficient, and Motaiyunas, who jumped a little late, was directly knocked out of the air.

After landing, he sat down on the ground directly.

At this time, the referee's whistle also sounded, and then signaled Motiejunas for a defensive foul and an extra penalty.

Oden pulled the basket with both hands to buffer the inertia of his body, and then he beat his chest and roared immediately after landing. Da Zhuang on the sidelines was also very happy to watch.

Among all the players in the Timberwolves, Oden is the only point that will always reassure him, and it is often after this point is played in many games that the team wins.

This is why many people who study the Timberwolves say that the easiest way to win the Timberwolves is to block Oden. Only by blocking Oden, it will become much easier to win the Timberwolves.

Although the words are good, there are probably not many alliances that can do it.

Standing on the free throw line, Oden also clapped his hands to celebrate with his teammates, and then steadily hit the extra penalty.

6 to 3, then it was the Rockets' turn to attack.

And this time Middleton also adopted the method of full-court marking on Harden, and posted it very close, but Harden used Jones' cover to enter the inside line, facing Oden's defense. The European step scored the ball again.

6 to 5, the offensive efficiency of both sides after the opening is very high.

And there is not much difference between the two sides in terms of attack time.

The confrontation between these two rounds seemed to be a microcosm of the first quarter of the game between the two sides. Until the game progressed to the first quarter with 1 minute and 48 seconds left, Carlisle replaced Harden and other main players with substitute players. .

It is worth mentioning that a player who is very familiar to the Timberwolves is now in the Rockets. Corey Brewer, who was traded by the Heat before, was sent to the Rockets by the Heat not long after the start of the regular season.
