Devil shooting guard in basketball

Chapter 165 Fight to the End! (33)

After the two teams really started to fight on the field, the Bucks immediately fell into a disadvantage in terms of overall performance.

In the final first quarter, the Rockets entered the second quarter with the Bucks at 33:24.

For some Bucks fans, the second quarter was like a nightmare.

The Bucks played a whole quarter, although the main players replaced a lot.But the score is too little.Only 17 points.

And the Rockets scored 36 points!The team shot three-pointers from the outside like crazy, and there was no player who conflicted with Howard on the inside defense.

Because although the player of Warcraft is not as strong as O'Neill, his physique is also very strong.

Facing such players, very few players would trouble them.Because once there is a conflict, there is no way to beat it.

Whether it was Barkley or O'Neal in the past, they also encountered this on the field.

The result later was that at the scene of the game, they beat their opponents until their eyes were full of gold stars.

Accept being sent off, accepting a fine, but it will definitely conflict with you on the field.

For such players, they form a barrier around themselves virtually.That is, you can't beat me, and you won't trouble me.

In that case, I am now the dominant player at the basket!For the Rockets' big center, his slow speed may be the only conspicuous shortcoming.

The first half ended with 69:41.

At the home court of the Bucks, the hearts of the fans are very shocked.

In the first quarter of the game, against the Bucks' strong counterattack, the Rockets played against their opponents as if they had encountered the Warriors!

I don't know what level the intensity of this competition is.Because the Rockets didn't give the Bucks a chance at all.

Several Bucks players who came off the field after the first half did not dare to look at Kidd. The 28-point difference made him very conflicted.

If the point difference is around 15 points, it is easier to chase, but with such a big point difference of 28 points, and the Rockets, can they catch up?
The atmosphere in the locker room was not very good either.The players had nothing to say.

Li Feng: "When we enter the playoffs, no matter where we are ranked 6-8, the final opponents will not be easy to fight."

The teammates in the room continued to be silent.

Li Feng: "So, the most important thing is not how many places we will rush to, but how we will play in the first round."

Hansen: "We haven't got the place for the playoffs yet. Are you thinking too much?!"

Hansen, who played two quarters, was in a bad state at this time.What made him angry was why his teammates' shooting accuracy was so poor in the second quarter.

But his five teammates who were blocked by Howard actually didn't say anything.
The room fell silent again.

Parker: "I feel that what Li Feng said makes sense. In the playoffs, we will definitely be able to make it. But it doesn't mean that we must tangle with these strong teams before the playoffs."

Hansen: "Kidd made us must enter the East before the 8th place. If this game loses, we may end up with the best result of the 8th place.

And then swept by the Atlanta Hawks. Their season is terrible!

Even the number of wins for the Cavaliers is far behind them.Isn't it scary?

Getting swept right after we entered the playoffs may be the end result of this season. "

Li Feng: "Hansen, it's time for you to rest. The Eagles are now No. [-] in the league, and the Cavaliers are now No. [-]. No matter which one is our opponent in the first round, it feels so sour~"

Embarrassing value +442 from Hansen!

If you want to play the first round with the Cavaliers, Hansen thinks it is not too exciting
Parker: "So Li Feng. What do you want to say?"

Li Feng: "What I want to say is that no matter how we play the game, the result is actually the same.

What I want to say is that we should not pay too much attention to the latter results.The coach also said before the game that our offensive focus will be placed in the third quarter.

Hansen, you don't need to say anything, I know what you are going to say.Since the difference in points is so large, we have to delay the opponent's attack.

The opponent's main force played two consecutive quarters.They continued in this quarter, and the fourth quarter is our chance.

If they don't play, our chances in the second half are still great! "

At this time, the players in the room seemed to understand what Li Feng meant.

Many Bucks players were intimidated by the momentum of the Rockets.They here and even Hansen are looking at this game with some pessimism.

And this kind of atmosphere, and the state of the players made Li Feng feel dangerous.

If the team continues to play in this state, they are likely to be completely defeated by the Rockets in the next quarter!
Some Bucks players in the room immediately reacted.Li Feng is not talking about the Arabian Nights.They do have another chance waiting for them tonight!

That is when the Rockets are exhausted or they change the bench, the Bucks' opportunity will come completely!
After chasing points in the third quarter, there is no small chance to overtake the score in the fourth quarter and finally win the game.

And if the Rockets still have a lot of main players on the court in the third quarter, then the Bucks can also fight them in the fourth quarter!
As Li Feng said just now.The big deal is that in the end they played against the Eagles as the 8th in the Eastern Conference.

Regardless of whether the first opponent in the playoffs is the Eagles or the Cavaliers, it is quite desperate for some Bucks players.

Thinking of this, the teammates had to say that they relaxed a little.If they compare this season with last season, they will find that it is already very good!
At least at this time, the management already believes that Kidd has completed the coaching tasks they assigned this season.

That is for the Bucks to finish the season between 8-10.The Milwaukee Bucks have had a lot of ups and downs this season.

At their lowest point, they were at the bottom of the league.Although he made it into the top eight once at the highest point, he was immediately squeezed out by other teams.

So excluding this time, the Bucks have been hovering between 9-15 in the Eastern Conference.Regardless of whether he makes the playoffs or not, the management will not fire Kidd.

Because from the current point of view, the overall state of Kidd and the team players has reached a good level.

The next step is to increase the depth of the bench for the team, to see if we can recruit some powerful substitutes, and there may be some adjustments in the main force.

So next season, maybe it will become a strong team in the Eastern Conference?

The atmosphere in the room relaxed a little.Parker and Li Feng chatted briefly on the bench.

Kidd did not show up in the locker room until the end of the break.Kidd sat quietly on the bench as the players came from the hallway to the court.

He felt that there was a problem with the tactical arrangement of this game.
Know that the Rockets will not relax on the Bucks.But I didn't expect them to play against their own team so desperately.
But Kidd was a little strange when he saw the players talking and laughing after they re-entered the court. What's the situation?Did they give up the game?

I wanted to go over and ask a few words, but in the end I turned around and let the teaching assistants not far away go over and say something.

The assistant coach immediately jumped down from the chair to the players, and began to talk to them about some tactics according to the lineup that Kidd had already arranged.

The players have heard it before the game, and now it's just a repetition.

Back from the game, the Rockets' lineup is Howard, Josh, Jones, Cannan and Nick.

The team's center and power forward have not changed.The rest of the players came off the bench.

On the Bucks side are Parker, Antetokounmpo, Ilyasova, Li Feng, and McAway.

The team mainly revolves around Li Feng and Ilyasova.

Alphabet and Parker can also score points quickly if they have the opportunity.At this quarter, it is relatively relaxed for the Rockets.

Harden and Terry's scoring ability is too strong!Terry's youthful scoring ability makes Rockets fans excited!And Harden belongs to the new generation of leaders in the league today!

At this time, they were watching the game proudly off the court.The record has risen to second in the West at this time.

what does that mean?It means that the Rockets are about the same as the Warriors, winning most of the regular season.

The Bucks team, although there is a lot of controversy from the outside world.Some say they are great.But from the perspective of the Rockets this season, it is just better than a bad team.

At the beginning of the game, Li Feng took the ball to the frontcourt.Sure enough, after the opponent's main guard went down, the Rockets' defensive strength dropped a lot.

McAway received a pass from Li Feng, and a fake move almost knocked Nick to the ground!
Then he jumped up and hit a three-pointer!Seeing this scene, Kidd got up from the bench and stood up!

From the state of the team starting from the third quarter, it doesn't look like they are going to give up!
Howard: "The outside defense must keep up! Don't relax! We must maintain the point difference. This game can be won more steadily!"

The two Rockets guards present at this time didn't say anything, just nodded.

This round did not change the attitude of the Rockets.Harden lay on two stools and watched the game.When the camera was aimed at him, he even said hello.

The winning streak is cool for a while, and the winning streak is always cool~
Today, not only will I have to continue the winning streak, but I may accidentally score 50+ points in a single game~
Thinking about it this way, Harden is naturally in a good mood.At least as a guard, he has done very well in the Rockets.

This section of the game is over.And after winning them easily, there are still many things to do in the evening~
For example, drink a few more glasses, sleep late or something.

For Harden, the entire regular season went according to his pre-season plan.

The strength of the Rockets has been greatly improved.In the playoffs, they have to compete with their opponents in the first round.

Looking at the current rankings in the Western Conference, you may encounter the San Antonio Spurs if you are not careful.

The basketball is passed directly to Warcraft.At the basket, he allowed Antetokounmpo to receive his fourth foul of the game, and then scored 4+2!

Li Feng did not choose to pass the ball this time, he easily passed Cannan and went directly to the Rockets basket!

Josh got out of the way of Warcraft and came to defend Li Feng.But at this time, Ilyasova, who was already in position, received the ball from the bottom corner and hit a three-pointer!

D'Antoni: "Defend against the Bucks players. What do you do when the opponent rushes to the basket?"

Jones: "I'll pay attention next time"

This time basketball came to Cannan.Alphabet got the rebound after he missed a three-pointer, and then rushed to the frontcourt immediately.

After Li Feng received his pass, the Bucks scored another three points!The Bucks showed a very calm and efficient ability at the beginning of the third quarter!
Terry stopped talking to people at this time.He came to the sidelines and started watching the game.

Harden also sat down, and the relaxed expression on his face gradually disappeared.

This time Jones played Ilyasova singles with the ball, but the letter who was finally rushed to defend quickly broke the ball in his hand!
After Li Feng took the basketball, he shuttled back and forth with the Rockets players!

Such a move also somewhat angered the Rockets players.As they chased, the basketball came to McAway.He catches the ball and jumps up to hit a three-pointer again!

Although the difference is still as much as 19 points.But D'Antoni was already watching the game with his hands on his hips.

Compared with the performance of the Rockets in the second half and the first two quarters, it seemed like a different team.Inside, Howard must not be able to keep up with the speed of his teammates.

But the key point is that their offensive efficiency in this quarter has dropped significantly.

Harden walked over slowly at this time.After a few words with the head coach, he went back.

Although he knows that the Bucks are chasing the score.But there was no panic at all.

In many games, he eventually led the team to turn defeat into victory.So there is nothing surprising about a team like the Bucks.Think of it as the Rockets letting them go.

Basketball is here again in Warcraft.D'Antoni watched and shook his head on the sidelines.

Ariza was called over by him at this time.

Kidd could see that the Rockets were about to call a timeout.The team is doing really well right now.If possible, the point difference will be about 15 points, and it is not impossible to win in the fourth quarter!
Warcraft didn't dribble, he just jumped up and dunked!

74:53!Li Feng dribbled the ball across half court again.

Although until now he didn't know how to use the [Ginobili Breakthrough Skill Pack] of this orange product.But when he dribbles, just let yourself run as far as possible to the outside!
In reality, my movements don't go too far.But his whole process of competing with his opponent has become a lot easier.

This rhythm made him indescribable.But this feeling is to be able to pass the opponent!

Li Feng continued to walk around the players of the Rockets.Finally, step back and take off for a three-pointer!

There are still 18 points left!The Bucks are using three-pointers to gradually shorten the distance with the Rockets!
Josh didn't make a jumper after getting the pass from Nick!After the basketball arrived at Howard's place, he played the basketball because he was not sure.Alphabet directly steals the ball and passes it to McAway!

Only then did I realize how fast McAway is!After halftime, before the players from the Rockets came over, the basketball came to Li Feng.

But this time Li Feng didn't shoot right away.Instead, pass the ball to Ilyasova on the other side.The Rockets players all ran in the direction of McAway and Li Feng.

At this time, they can only watch Ilyasova hit a three-pointer with a jumper without defense!The point difference has narrowed to 15 points!

It didn't take long for D'Antoni to signal for a timeout.

In the game just now, Kidd clearly saw the momentum of his players wanting to fight the Rockets to the end!
