On Saturday morning, the NBA Rockets adjusted the Portland Trail Blazers away, and in the first quarter, the Trail Blazers' inside advantage was undoubtedly exposed, Nurkic and Eubanks gave what they wanted on the inside of the Rockets, and the Rockets had no way, and the offensive end inside was also frequently blocked, trailing by 9 points in a single quarter.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Rockets still did not have many internal defensive methods, but fortunately, the three-point opening did not let the score open too much. Paragraph in this section. The Rockets suddenly made consecutive mistakes, and were detonated by the opposing rising star Sharp twice in a row, and the Rockets were forced to pause. Back from the timeout, the Rockets not only could not defend the inside line, was killed by the opponent repeatedly, and the outside line was also declared lost, Simmons shot 7 of 11 from three-point range in the half, scoring 23 points, and the largest point difference was pulled down by 18 points, but fortunately, the Rockets relied on the defense and three-point shooting before the end of the half, and fixed the halftime score at 58:69, which is not too ugly.
Half time summary, rocket tactics are single, the offense still continues to play alone style, as a rocket iron fan since the Yao Ming era just can't understand, Silas is it difficult to design a few sets of tactics around Green? The two rising stars of Shin Jing and Smith on the inside line are seriously underweight and strength, and they are basically powerless when encountering super inside lines such as Nurkic, Embiid, and Brother Alphabet.
Returning at halftime, the Rockets seemed to suddenly open up the second pulse of Ren Du, forcing the Trail Blazers to make a series of mistakes, taking the opportunity to narrow the gap to single digits, but it was obvious that the Blazers were more experienced and more able to adjust, and Billups came back with a wave of pauses to adjust, and the point difference was quickly opened to double digits. The third quarter ended with the Rockets trailing by 14 points.
Back in the final quarter, veteran Gordon made consecutive three-pointers, Smith also had three-pointers, Matthews made all three free throws, a wave of chaos, the point difference was reduced to 9 points, the time was 6 minutes and 45 seconds, Billups called a stop. When the game came back, the Trail Blazers still adjusted quickly, Nurkic frequently ate inside, and although the Rockets struggled to catch up, they were not as good as they could, and they made consecutive mistakes at the last moment, and finally lost the game.
Player performance:
Green This game is inefficient, the choice will be bad, the win or loss value is the lowest in the game, and the loss of the game should bear the greatest responsibility.
Porter Jr.: The game was played consistently, a bit of a backcourt core feel
Gordon: As steady as ever.
Smith: Strengthened the inside ball attack, and the effect was good. Subsequent weight gain and strength are the way to go.
Shen Jing: The inside line was abused by the opponent's two internal lines, and the attack barely passed.
Tate: A big hat, the only thing that makes a big impression.
Ethan: I don't know if it's offending the manager or not being reused.
Knicks: The game was 3-of-3 from three-point range, which was impressive.
Martin Jr.: Decent.
Matthews: It feels very spiritual.
Silas: XJBD tactics throughout the game, five black stars bad!
