After a two-game losing streak, the Houston Rockets sat at home and faced the Philadelphia 76ers back-to-back challenge during their six-game winning streak.
On the Rockets side, head coach Silas made adjustments, and Theis moved into starting partner Wood to try to help the team defend the home field and end the losing streak.
On the other hand, on the side of the 76ers, Maxi + Seth Curry hung up the exemption card, and whether the 76ers can win 7 consecutive wins on the road, Embiid obviously needs to perform!
Fortunately, after four quarters of competition, with a wave of 17-2 scoring climax, the 76ers, who were mainly anti-guests, completely suppressed the Rockets in the first half, establishing a 12-point lead.
Coupled with the return of the second half, the 76ers took advantage of the chase in the third quarter, and the multi-point blossom expanded the point difference to 19 points in one fell swoop, and with the final quarter into garbage time, the game also lost suspense.
In the end, the 76ers also won 111-91 on the road to the Rockets, which was worth the trip to win 7 consecutive wins, but also gave the opponent rockets 3 consecutive losses!
In this game, the 76ers will continue the fiery state of winning streak, the whole team played a 6-man scoring double-double, and the team attacked with all the soldiers to win a 20-point victory.
In the case of the main forces such as Harris + Kolkmaz + Sebel, the performance of the double Tarnbid + Drummond is particularly critical!
Embiid was well defensively and defensively in this game, starting 25 minutes, shooting 9 of 13 of 16 free throws, 13 of 13, and exploding a game-high 31 points, plus 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
Among them, his heroic performance of taking 17 points in the first quarter not only helped the 76ers to open up the situation smoothly, but also once became a difficult existence for the Rockets to solve, dominating both ends of the attack and defense!
In addition, as a tower on the team bench, Drummond's performance in this game is also indispensable.
Drummond was very efficient, playing 15 minutes off the bench, shooting nearly 80% of the 8-of-6 shooting, and contributing 13 points + 10 rebounds + 3 assists + 1 steal + 1 block.
It is not difficult to see that after gradually adapting to the 76ers' system and accepting the role of the lineup, Drummond has indeed become an indispensable and important part of the 76ers!
More importantly, after winning seven consecutive wins over the Rockets in this game, the Philadelphia 76ers' regular season record has also reached 23 wins and 16 losses, returning to the right track while also impacting the top five in the East.
Rationally speaking, judging from the current momentum of the 76ers, in the next schedule, the 76ers who are gradually finding their form are still a team in the East that cannot be underestimated!
On the other hand, on the Rockets side, the team's offensive and defensive ends of this game collapsed completely, and finally swallowed a 20-point rout + 3 consecutive defeats, which obviously disappointed the home fans.
As the team's two young players, the performance of Kevin Porter + Jaylen Green, known as the "Rockets Double", really needs to be examined!
Kevin Porter Jr. was slightly sluggish in this game, starting 26 minutes, 9 shots 2 of 2 feel cold, outside three-pointers is 5 shots 0 completely lost the crosshair, the last quarter was also expelled.
Although Jaylen Green scored a personal performance of 14+5+1 in the whole game, rationally speaking, he and Kevin Porter Jr. had as many as 11 mistakes in total, which still allowed the Rockets to waste a lot of opportunities to chase points!
But for Jaylen Green, this battle, as the leader, he is not completely without gains.
After all, after scoring 14 points in this game, according to statistics, Jaylen Green has scored double figures in 10 consecutive games, becoming another rookie after Yao Ming to achieve this achievement, which can be said to have set a brilliant personal record!
Considering the cultivation value and development ceiling that Jaylen Green has shown so far, I have to say that he is only 19 years old, and he will also bring us more surprises in the Rockets team that is on the occasion of employment!
