The last time the Rockets ended a 15-game losing streak and won seven straight games was achieved against the Bulls, and when the team played against the Bulls again, everyone still hoped that Hugh City could beat the Eastern Powerhouse again.
Although the Bulls are strong, but the game against the Rockets is not only back-to-back, the team is because of the multi-person trigger health and safety agreement to find some temporary workers to replace, on the contrary, the Rockets are not only idle, the team is more than a player who has been absent due to injury, but it is very regrettable, this time against the Bulls Rockets is a complete defeat, the team is ultimately 118:133 defeated opponents did not have the opportunity to win two consecutive away games.
As for the reason why the Rockets lost this game, we can see from the big score that the Rockets bombed 118 points to play the normal offensive level, but lost 133 points on the defensive end. Look at the overall data of the two teams, the Rockets shot 44 of 78 shots, shooting 56.4%, playing at an extraordinary level, three-point shooting 33 shots 12, shooting 36.4% is playing at a normal level, but the whole game Rockets only got 35 rebounds, which is 10 worse than the season average, but the Bulls also only got 34 rebounds The two sides can be said to be evenly matched, but the Bulls side shot 47 of 88 shots, shooting 53.4%, three-point shooting 35 shots 16, Shooting 45.7 percent, both of these figures are better than the Rockets, and in the end, the city's defense is not in place.
This has a lot to do with Cyrace's game against the Bulls to change the team's starting lineup, in the previous game against the Pistons, in the absence of Brooks, Cyrence put up a set of gordon + Matthews + Christopher + Tate + Wood set of starts, but in this game against the Bulls, because Brooks returned to Cyras and put him into the team's starting lineup again, more importantly, Brooks played a 32-minute team high in this game. Christopher, who had been very good in the previous game, played only 20 minutes off the bench.
Although in the past period of time, Brooks has performed very well on the offensive end and has become an indispensable three-point shooter in the hands of Silas, But Brooks's shortcomings are very obvious, that is, his personal single defense ability is too poor, coupled with matthews in the starting lineup, there is a single defensive loophole, in the face of the Bulls' Green, DeRozan, Vucevic, Caruso, Bauer, the 5-man group, the Rockets are fully behind in defense. At the beginning of the game against the Bulls, the Rockets were hit by the opponent 9:0 climax, and at the end of the first half, the team was already 19 points behind the opponent, and it can be said that Silas's platoon was a big loss in the alignment.
If Silas can continue to use the No. 24 show to put him into the starting effect will be much better, in the previous game Christopher has shown everyone the strength on the defensive end, the most important thing is that the offensive end and even combing the team's offensive performance is also very good, putting him into the starting can more balance the strength of the team at both ends of the attack and defense, but in the end Silas did not do this, so it is difficult to blame for the final loss to the opponent 15 points against the Bulls, and it is a pity not to reuse the No. 24 show.
