The Rockets lost 100-113 to the Lone Rangers.
In this game, the Rockets are close to 30 points behind at most, and for a long time they have maintained a point difference of more than 20 points, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no way to fight back.
Just 2 days ago, when playing the Lakers, the Rockets were not like this. At that time, the Rockets fought overtime and beat the Lakers 139-130. Let the Lakers, who are not very harmonious, make it worse.
After that game, it was rumored within the Lakers that most of the staff and players wanted to survive the final month of the regular season. As for the playoffs or something, it's too far away.
You see, the Rockets that can beat the Lakers into despair, today lost to the Lone Ranger.
So the question is, how big is the gap between the Lakers and the teams in the playoffs? (The Lone Ranger is currently ranked 5th in the West)
The key lone ranger is not how well played, Doncic was originally a good swimmer in the whole field, Khan did not come out much, and in the fourth quarter he was directly forced to sweat by his own substitute.
In the final quarter, the Rockets chased the point difference several times to only 13 points left.
Doncic could have punched the clock in three quarters and was forced to keep playing.
As a whole, Doncic shot 9-of-19 and 5-of-11 from 3-point range, scoring 30 points, 14 boards, 6 assists and 2 blocks. Fat Man is sure he's not a center???
But where the Lone Ranger's substitute is reliable, Doncic can't get this data.
Bertans played 21 minutes, shooting 2-of-10 and 1-of-7 from 3-point range, scoring 6 points, 5 boards and 1 assist.
Let's not talk about how Dinwiddie is, just Bertans' performance today, we can say very hastily: Porzingis's deal, the Lone Ranger lost.
However, the Lone Ranger trade Bozin also makes sense, after all, the strongest interior line is already in the lineup.
Powell shot 8-of-9 at halftime, had 22 points, 10 boards, 2 assists, and 6 offensive rebounds!!!
That's Dwight Powell!!
Suddenly thinking of the Lakers playing the Rockets, Dwight of the Lakers did not even play, was DNP. It's all Dwight, how can the treatment be so far worse?
To be fair, Powell in the first half was so strong that he almost didn't know hongu, is this still our community center?
Where is Powell, this is the whole Bower.
That basket of footsteps, Hongu also thought that the rocket star put on the clothes of a lone ranger today.
However, when Hongu told Lao Yang that Powell got 22 minutes and 10 boards in the half, Lao Yang seconds back: then the end must not be 25 + 10.
motor! Really let the old Yang to say the right, the end of the game Bowier also 11 shots 9, got 26 points, 12 boards and 3 assists, also ... Expected. It seems to have set a new season scoring record...
If the Lone Ranger's interior line has always had today's performance, then the playoffs are expected to go very far.
But don't get too excited too soon, there are no Rockets in the playoffs.
Now the other 29 teams in the real league, at least 28 of them can play the "first center is in the lineup" visual sense, and who the remaining unworthy team is, the secretaries of state have guessed for themselves
If you don't understand, do you have to ask, is the rocket's inner line really so weak?
Isn't Shin Kyung also named by this rookie? How did it get abused like this! Halfway through the third quarter, Shin Kyung had already committed 5 fouls.
In the whole game, Shen Jing only played 20 minutes, shooting 3 of 9, 3 points and 2 of 0, only 6 points and 6 boards but had 5 fouls.
Well, when he hit the Lakers, Shen Jing was not like this today. In that game, Shen Jing shot 9 of 20 and got 21 points, 14 boards, 2 assists, 2 breaks and 2 caps, so whose problem is it?
After Shin Kyung was plagued by fouls, the Rockets were forced to use Fernando more, and then...
Then the Rockets regretted it!!! Almost with Fernando's excellent performance, the plate was turned over.
Fernando shot 8-of-8 and had 16 points, 11 boards and two blocks, and set a season high in points, rebounds and blocks.
Fernando: I heard you think the Rockets' interior line without Wood is weak?
We: No, no, no, we don't, we feel that the Rockets interior line with Wood is also weak.
If you are close to 30 points behind, you can still turn the tables, do you say that the Rockets are still "swinging bad" next?
Really, Rockets, don't think you're stable in the west right now, the Thunder have reimbursed several players in a row, can't you see what they want to do? Hang on, don't wave, can't win the ball, don't be hard.
No kidding, all nine teams have the hope of competing for the title
