On March 11, Beijing time, the Lone Rangers will challenge the Houston Rockets on the road tomorrow morning. The two teams are in completely different shape from their rankings, with the Lone Rangers, who had only 77 points in the previous game and lost to the Knicks by 30 points at home, and are still solving their offensive weakness. Doncic still has an MVP-level performance, with 31 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists in the previous 34 minutes, but except for him, no one on the Lone Rangers can stand up and score to share Doncic's worries.
Look at the Rockets, although the record is dismal, but in the game with the Lakers, the Rockets all performed positively, each of the 3 rookies scored more than 20 points, and finally the Rockets defeated the Lakers at home with full efforts. Therefore, this lone ranger and rocket game, although it seems to be strong and weak, in fact, the momentum of the two teams is not at all as reflected in the ranking.
The Rockets are not without the possibility of winning at home, after all, this Rockets team has played with confidence, no matter what kind of strong team you are, the Rockets can just let go. Look at the Injury Situation of the Rockets, Wall is common sense not to play, there is no need to say more here, Garupa is still recovering after surgery, and this game will not come back. In addition to the two players who "couldn't play for a long time," the Rockets' injury list changed slightly from the previous game.
Wood has missed 2 games due to illness, and his status in the next game has been upgraded to "playing in doubt", that is, Wood has a chance to come back in tomorrow's game; look at Tate, the current state of Tate is the same as Wood, the same "playing doubts", compared to the previous game can not play, Tate's situation is much better - although may continue to miss. One piece of bad news is that in the previous game against the Lakers, he played 23 minutes off the bench and sent a 12-point + 6 assists + 1 rebound substitute guard Schroeder in the game, and his state was also in doubt.
Just after the previous game, Schroeder's injury may be serious again, but for the Rockets, the backup point guard still has it, except for Christopher who can control the ball, the Rockets did not delegate Deschen Knicks to the development league, and if Schroeder does not play in this game, the Knicks may still have a chance to play - just like they did against the Heat before.
In addition, Trevlin Quinn, a swing man who was recently recalled by the Rockets, has now been sent to the Development League by the Rockets, and he has just returned to the Vipers and scored 43 points in the game, which can be said to be a "blessing in disguise". Without the Rockets to put him down, Quinn wouldn't have a single-game 43-point performance.
The above is the Rockets' injury situation today, the game with the Lone Rangers, 3 players who are "in doubt", whether they come back before the game will directly determine the changes in the Rockets' starting lineup. Tomorrow at 9:00 a.m., the Rockets play the Lone Ranger at home, don't miss it.
