On February 7th, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and today the Pacers sat at home to usher in the challenge of the Rockets, before this game, the Rockets lost to the Timberwolves, and the Warriors have caught up with them in terms of win difference, so if the Rockets lose again, they will fall to 12th in the West, and as a result, Van Jordan was absent in this campaign, and finally faced the Pacers who played in the whole core, they lost the game, and then we will briefly talk about the game process, and then talk about the players' play.
Contest Recap:
At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, Jabari Smith hit a three-point shot to win the Rockets, Nesmith responded with three points, Dillon and Smith combined for 5 points, Turner responded with free throws, and then Sika and Nesmith scored successively to help the Pacers catch up with the difference, and both sides played a good firepower in this quarter, and the Pacers beat the Pacers 41-39 Rockets in the first quarter. In the second quarter, thanks to the play of Jalen Green and Smith, the Rockets overtook their opponents and established the lead, leading the Pacers by seven points at halftime.
Yibian rematched, Jalen Green and Shin Jing scored successively to help the Rockets continue to extend their lead, but Sika and Haliburton led the team to a wave of 20-5 climax at the end of the quarter to overtake the Rockets, and the Pacers led by seven points at the end of the third quarter. In the last quarter, Udoka habitually let Green be a cold bench, but the score difference became wider and wider, and in desperation, he also chose to let Green play, although Green led the team to play an offensive climax, but time was no longer on their side, and finally the Rockets lost to the opponent 129-132.
Six Pacers scored in double figures
The Pacers can play enough players, under the guidance of Carlisle, now the Pacers have a good offensive system, even if Haliburton is absent, their offense will be strong, this game Haliburton is still in injury management, only played 29 minutes, 8 of 15 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers got 18 points, 2 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, and the combination of him and Sika is getting better and better.
Sika played well in this game, he shot 11 of 16 from the field, 4 of 6 from three-point range, got 29 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal, Sika's defense and impact is what the Pacers need, and now the opponent is sandwiching Haliburton, the team has a second player who can score, many fans were not optimistic about this deal at the beginning, but now, they have gradually reached the level that everyone expected, which is very good.
In addition to the two cores, Turner scored 21 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Nesmith got 10 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, Hield scored 12 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, McConnell got 17 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, the Pacers made a total of 54 of 86 shots in this game, with a shooting rate of 62.8%, and a total of 32 shots and 15 three-point shots, with a shooting rate of 47%.
Rocket 4 people 20+
Although Van Jordan was absent, the Rockets gave everyone a glimpse of their future in this game, but Udoka's title as a coach I think is a gimmick, and the ability to arrange the formation is very limited. In this campaign, Shen Jing shot 7 of 15 in the game, scored 20 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal, Shen Jing's skills are indeed good, but his limited talent also limits his height, and his athleticism is very poor and is targeted by opponents in various ways, and it is difficult to become the cornerstone of the team.
In contrast, I think Jabari Smith's ceiling will be higher than him, this season Smith has not been given the core position, otherwise he can definitely play a beautiful performance, he shot 8-of-15 from the field, 2-of-4 from three-point range and got 20 points and 9 rebounds. So far this season, Jabari Smith has averaged 13.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game, shooting 47% from the field and 37% from three-point range.
Jalen Green has actually performed very well recently, but he just can't get Udoka's trust, he averaged 30+ per game in the five games before the Timberwolves and Raptors, and he also played a single game 30+ performance in this game, 12 of 20 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers got 30 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals, and scored 12 points in 7 minutes in the final quarter.
Dillon played well in this game, 8 of 15 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers got 23 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, Amen Thompson replaced Van Jordan into the starter, he also showed his talent, 6 of 13 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers got 13 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks, although Amen Thompson's projection is not good enough, but his athleticism, his versatility and defense are very good, he let everyone see the future of the Rockets.
The White Devils were very inefficient in this campaign, 4 of 11 shots from the field, 1 of 3 three-pointers scored 9 points, and the draft conference knew that the White Devils had a very good offensive ability with the ball, why did it fall to the 20th pick?
