**Vic saw the point difference gradually narrowing, and now the Rockets were only 1 point behind the Spurs, so he called a timeout.
"Whoa", he stepped back and forced a three-point shot. Chen Feng took advantage of his fast shooting speed and made a powerful counterattack in front of Jeremy Lin.
At 25:21, the Spurs led by 4 points.
The Spurs made substitutions, Chen Feng was replaced by Patty Mills, and Derrick Favors was also replaced by Jordan Hill.
Jeremy Lin made another excellent pass. Parsons did not waste his pass this time, and his stable mid-range shot helped the Rockets score two points.
The Spurs finally ended the first quarter with a 5-point lead over the Rockets at 31:26.
Although the Spurs led by 5 points, the game was evenly matched. The two teams used their smooth offense, and all the fans at the scene and in front of the TV gave a wonderful game.
Chen Feng's 11 points and 5 assists were the main contributors to the Spurs' lead. Jeremy Lin contributed 6 points, 3 assists, 3 rebounds, 1 steal, and 1 block. He seemed to be everywhere in the game.
He planned the team's offense again and again and contained the opponent's offense again and again.
During the game, in order to exaggerate the atmosphere at home and celebrate the Spurs' outstanding record during this period, the Spurs prepared many entertainment activities to allow fans to fully experience the Spurs' home atmosphere during their free time during the game.
Warm atmosphere.
After the start of the second quarter, James Harden did not appear in the game. The Spurs were uncharacteristically different. Instead of the steady and whirlwind tactics of the first quarter, the Rockets were caught off guard. Chen Feng made two consecutive baseline breakthroughs for layups.
Successfully helped the team widen the point difference in one fell swoop.
McHale's heart began to feel severe pain again. This game was a test for his heart. The game had only passed a third of the time, but multiple changes had already made it almost unbearable for him.
The Rockets' tactics were constrained by the Spurs in every aspect, and their tenacious defense consumed the Rockets' energy. When the Rockets were adjusting, the Spurs took advantage of their fast break skills, and Chen Feng made sharp breakthroughs again and again.
It tore apart the opponent's defense line.
Jeremy Lin quickly passed the ball to Harden without any pause. Harden's return pass brought the ball back to Jeremy Lin's hands. Just like this, Jeremy Lin had already run into the open space and hit the mid-range shot.
2 points down.
Chen Feng looked at Jeremy Lin's figure and couldn't help but sigh that the Spurs' rotation had not yet fully started.
"Tighten up, guys! Defend!"
Chen Feng dribbled the ball quickly past halftime. The Rockets were now in a zone defense. Chen Feng's dribbling speed surprised everyone on the Rockets, especially Beverley, who was the main defender. However, they believed in the team
With his defensive ability, once Chen Feng enters his defense, he will never be as comfortable as before.
Outside the three-point line, Chen Feng used the screen of his teammate Ginobili to pull to the other side. His body quickly rose, and with a "swish" sound, Chen Feng's three-pointer was accurately hit before the opponent could react.
basket.
Four minutes into the second quarter, Chen Feng was replaced by Patty Mills.
After being informed to take a break, Chen Feng's expression was obviously stunned. 12 points is indeed a big advantage, but it is only the second quarter of the game. This is not a point difference that can guarantee victory. The Rockets actually do not
It's not that they are so vulnerable, it's just that they have problems with their tactical arrangements and are controlled by the Spurs. Once they are given a chance to breathe, the outcome is still unknown. I am off the court at this time, and I have no idea about the team's offense.
Obviously disadvantageous.
However, he didn't say anything. During the game, no one was allowed to comment on the coach's decision, and judging from **Vic's appearance, he had already carefully considered today's tactics.
On the other side, Harden's initiative to ask for help also made it difficult for McHale. Now the team really needs his offensive strength, but his condition today does not seem to be very good, and there is also a big change in his mentality.
question.
McHale gently patted Harden on the shoulder and said, "Go!"
James Harden's mental outlook changed a lot after he returned to the field. He didn't stick to the ball too much in the offense. He made sharp breakthroughs and passed the ball at the right time, revitalizing the Rockets very well, especially
Jeremy Lin's two three-pointers are worth thousands of dollars.
**Vicci's brows were furrowed, and the 12-point advantage was gone in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, there were no major problems with the team's offense, but when he saw Chen Feng next to him, his worried heart finally relaxed.
Come down.
"Clang", a huge slam dunk, suddenly plunged the Spurs' home court into a dead silence. James Harden's shot was very beautiful, and he had a beautiful one-two with his teammates, and his realistic fake moves under the basket shook away Derry
Ke Favors turned over and pulled the bar under the basket and succeeded in a reverse dunk. The whole set of moves was clean and neat, especially the fake moves under the basket, which were real and illusory, and with his physical condition, he could completely turn the fake moves into a shot.
At this time, the score between the two sides was 41:37, and the Spurs' lead was only 4 points.
When the Rockets narrowed the point difference step by step, **Vic finally sent out all the starting players. Unexpectedly, he just relaxed a little and gave his opponent some breathing space. James Harden used his own
He led the team to catch up little by little, but Leonard's close defense seemed to have lost its effectiveness. Time and time again, the opponent rushed to the basket and succeeded.
Howard turned sideways, pressed Derrick Favors' body with his left arm, and hit a hook with his right hand.
Chen Feng broke through Harden's defense again. Harden subconsciously reached for the ball, but was called a defensive foul by the referee.
Leonard served from the sideline, and Chen Feng caught the ball and wandered outside the Rockets' three-point line looking for opportunities. The moment Harden hit his right hand holding the ball, Chen Feng quickly threw the ball out. In a short time, the referee
In the eyes, it was natural that Chen Feng took a shot and the opponent's thug fouled. Although the ball flew out of Lao Gao's direction, he still had three free throw opportunities.
"Shua", "shua" and "shua" were heard three times in a row. Chen Feng's free throws were always so stable, giving his opponent a fatal blow.
At this time, less than thirty seconds before Chen Feng came on the court, Chen Feng widened the point difference to 7 points.
The Rockets, led by James Harden, suddenly erupted with a shock wave, and in just two minutes, they also played a 7:3 mini-game.
The opponent's offensive came one after another. Although **Vicci was nervous, he had no intention of substituting. He just kept shouting "defend" from the sidelines.
Dwight Howard's inside attack was successful.
Harden alone couldn't guard Chen Feng. Chen Feng relied on his explosive power to force a breakthrough from him again and hit a jump shot from the midline.
Realizing his mistake, Parsons immediately stepped forward to double-team Chen Feng, who was holding the ball. However, he did not expect that Ginobili had already blocked his path. However, this little time was more than enough for Chen Feng.
Change of direction, when Harden was preparing to deal with his breakthrough, a back pass was handed to Wesley Johnson on the baseline. The unguarded Wesley Johnson took a breath, stretched his arms, and followed
I shot the ball at my usual three-point pace.
With a "swish" sound, the ball went in!
Wesley Johnson's three-pointer allowed the San Antonio Spurs to regain the lead.
Harden blocked Chen Feng's footsteps. Parsons received his pass and hit a three-pointer from the right wing. This was his third three-pointer in the game.
Chen Feng dribbles the ball forward quickly. This is **Vicchi's biggest requirement for him. He quickly speeds up the tempo of the game and uses his offense to drag his opponent past.
Just after halftime, the Rockets' two outsiders were already staring at both sides of the three-point line. The Rockets' outside defense is not of high quality. Parsons has a good offense, but defense is not his strong point, and the young Ha
Deng also focuses on offense and neglects defense, and cannot bear the heavy responsibility of defense. Just now, he seemed a little unable to defend Patty Mills.
Chen Feng turned his body slightly to one side, quickly dodged while moving, and Harden's defense didn't even slow down his pace. He just stepped down skillfully to change the ball, and easily broke through. With such smooth movements,
The fans cheered endlessly. With the true integration of man and ball, Chen Feng's ball control skills have already reached a very high level.
However, the alarm was not resolved. Although Parsons was not good at defending, it did not mean that he had no defensive awareness. In terms of defensive awareness, Parsons was quite active and accurately judged Chen Feng's breakthrough route. The first two steps
Appearing on the route that Chen Feng must pass, he stretched out his right hand and reached for the basketball with unusual stability.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Feng's mood was unusually calm at this time. The more critical the moment, the more calmly Chen Feng could treat it. With a deep breath, Chen Feng leaned forward and pulled his body in rapid movements.
Straightening the body, pivoting on the heel, the body actually completed the turning movement while traveling. This seemingly simple movement has extremely strict requirements on the body. Without coordination ability, when the center of gravity is lost on the base, the steps are only
It will be messy and make mistakes.
Things were far from over. James Harden appeared near the free throw line early, just waiting for Chen Feng to fall into his trap. At this time, Chen Feng was like a moth flying into the flame, continuously demanding.
His movements had already exhausted all his strength.
At the last moment, Chen Feng's right hand shook slightly backward, and the ball hit the floor and bounced feebly into Ginobili's hands. The seemingly helpless action turned into a wonderful pass at this moment. (To be completed.)
