The Rockets reversed and refused to lose four in a row! The list shot 34 points, and Rose was too pleased to come back
The Rockets take on the Grizzlies
As a young team, the performance of the Houston Rockets this season is indeed impressive. Although after six consecutive wins, the team immediately suffered three consecutive defeats, but in these three games, the Rockets did not lose unjustly. Harden 3+1 kill, James free throws, and another game, it was a reversal of the Warriors, and the Splash Brothers scored a total of 10 three-pointers. After three consecutive defeats, the Rockets are still ranked eighth in the West, and the team's defensive efficiency is still ranked sixth in the league, and no one can underestimate them.
In this game, the Rockets welcomed the challenge of the Grizzlies at home. The former Grizzlies were also the youth army in the West, but who would have thought that Morant's youth and frivolity would make him suffer the price of a suspension, which eventually led to the Grizzlies ranking at the bottom of the West this season, and the team's offensive efficiency was the third lowest in the league, which was miserable.
Jalen Green exploded
At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, the Grizzlies were dominated by the anti-visitors, Jalen Jr. got 8 points and 3 rebounds, Bane was 9 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, and Rose, who had just returned, also scored 4 points, and the team scored 28 points in a single quarter, while the Rockets who fought at home only scored 21 points, including Smith 5 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block. After returning from the game in the second quarter, the Rockets' offense still did not improve, Smith scored another 7 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist, Shen Jing scored 6 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, and the team scored 24 points in a single quarter, but the Grizzlies completely fell into a scoring drought.
Jalen Jr. had seven more points and one rebound, and Rose also had three points and one assist, but the team only scored 18 points, and at halftime, the Rockets trailed the Grizzlies by one point at 45-46. In the second half, the Rockets gradually regained their form, Jalen Green suddenly broke out, scoring 13 points and 1 assist on 5-of-8 shooting, Dillon was 5 points and 1 rebound, and the team scored 29 points in a single quarter, while the Grizzlies only scored 22 points, Bane had 7 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, but Jalen Jr. shot 1 of 9, only 4 points and 3 rebounds, and the Rockets successfully overtook the Grizzlies by 6 points.
In the final quarter of the game, the Grizzlies' offense was indescribable, and they only scored 8 points in the middle of the quarter, the Rockets seized the opportunity, Jalen Green got 11 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist on 4-of-6 shooting, and Van Jordan's 3 three-pointers were like three nails, which made the game completely sealed, and the Rockets stretched the difference to 23 points in one go, and the game lost suspense. In the end, the Houston Rockets defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 111-91 and successfully rejected a four-game losing streak.
Rose's comeback is too gratifying
The Houston Rockets completed a big comeback, from trailing by 11 points at one point to winning by 20 points, and the team once again showed the strength of a playoff team. Jalen Green ushered in a big explosion, shooting 13 of 26, 3 of 13 three-point shots, and got 34 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, once again showing the strength of the team's core. Smith shot 6-of-10 from 18 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, Van Jordan had 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, Dillon had 13 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist, and Shen Jing had 11 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.
The Grizzlies lost the game without surprise, Bane had 23 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, and Jalen Jr. had 23 points and 7 rebounds, but other than that, only Zaire Williams scored in double figures, with 13 points and 2 rebounds on 4-of-10 shooting. Rose ushered in a comeback in this game, shooting 1 of 3 and 4 of 4 free throws, with 7 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists. Rose has proven once again that he still has what it takes to stay in the rotation, and to see him playing is a relief for the fans.
