12月16日NBA常规赛，休斯顿火箭队客场103-96击败孟菲斯灰熊队。 The Rockets have been in excellent form recently, having won four consecutive games before the game, and the momentum of their rise is obvious. 申京、史密斯、伊森等年轻球员都有着显著的进步，这支火箭青年军全队上下都能发挥作用，攻防两端都有不错的表现，整体实力不可小觑。 The Grizzlies are the complete opposite, they are still not out of injury trouble, and with Morant's suspension, there are too many inconsistencies. However, this game against the Grizzlies is at home, and the Rockets are playing poorly on the road, which is an opportunity for the Grizzlies. 随着莫兰特的禁赛即将结束，灰熊还是有机会冲击季后赛的，估计这场比赛他们会拼尽全力，比赛还是很有看点的。 Let's take a look at the starters of both sides.
Both starters:
Rockets: VanVleet, Jalen Green, Dillon, Smith, Shin Kyung
Grizzlies: Rose, Bane, Vince Williams, Jaren Jackson Jr., Biyombo
比赛开始，灰熊攻势猛烈全面压制火箭，罗斯三分线外直接拔起三分命中，灰熊开局打出18-5冲击波领先火箭。
The Rockets couldn't get into the groove for a long time! Shen Jing didn't score an empty basket, opened with 1 of 4, and made 3 turnovers.
At the end of the first quarter, the Grizzlies led the Rockets 29-14, and the Rockets' offense and defense were suppressed, shooting 25% from the field, 1-of-8 from three-point range, and scoring only 14 points.
比赛进入第二节，火箭依旧被压制，随后杰夫-格林站了出来！隔着两人强硬打成2+1，10分钟得9分助火箭缩小到个位数分差。
The two sides then maintained a 10-point stalemate, and the Grizzlies led the Rockets 54-45 at halftime. On the Grizzlies' side, Rose withdrew from the game early due to left hamstring soreness.
Yibian fought again, the Rockets finally found their offensive touch, Dillon and Green teamed up to score the team's first 12 points to start a scoring frenzy, and Shin Jing and Ethan also repeatedly made contributions on the defensive end.
After Holiday hit a three-pointer, the Rockets finally took the lead.
At the end of the third quarter, the Grizzlies trailed 74-75.
In the final quarter of the game, the two teams played very close and scored alternately, and when the Grizzlies chased to 1 point many times, the Rockets could always score in time to stabilize the situation. At the critical moment, Jackson played 2+1 to tie the score, but VanVleet hit a shot, and Dillon also hit a three-pointer to help the Rockets seal the win.
In the end, the game ended with the Rockets winning 103-96 over the Grizzlies.
Dillon Brooks played 40 minutes in this game, shooting 10 of 20, including 3 of 9 three-pointers and 3 of 4 free throws, scoring 26 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. 这场比赛终于能够扬眉吐气了，曾经灰熊爱答不理，如今灰熊高攀不起，不得不说，像狄龙这种有血性、有激情的球员才是真正的冠军拼图！
