Playing the Spurs, Smith missed 2 free throws and the Rockets lost! Playing the Cavaliers, Shen Jing missed 2 free throws and the Rockets lost in overtime...... could have done without free throws, Van Jordan had to do it himself, how many balls were singles in the end, it didn't make sense at all, it turned out that the NBA was like that, it's fun to watch, let whoever does it, if it doesn't work, it's okay!

Three incredible
1. The god who doesn't eat! Ou Shenxian returns to his place! Owen scored 19 points in the last quarter! 6 points in overtime! The whole court scored a season-high 48 points!
Irving played 44 minutes, scoring a season-high 48 points on 15-of-25 shooting, 3-of-8 three-pointers and 15-of-17 free throws, plus seven rebounds, two assists and one steal, with a plus/minus of +21. It is worth mentioning that Irving played well on the offensive end of this game, especially in the final quarter when the team fell behind, and scored 19 points in 7 of 10 in a single quarter. This is an early game, Irving scored 48 points without eating or drinking, it's too rebellious! Irving is still the king of the last quarter, and finally handing the ball to Irving is over! Finally, hugging Doncic reminds people of Jordan Pippen, come on Irving! There is also a moment that is touching, Irving was interviewed, took off his jersey, looked at the logo on Irving's vest, and was in awe of Irving! Should I say it or not, the spokesperson is the most conscientious, but the shoes are really fried!
2. Don't give free throws if you die! If you don't get killed, you won't have a whistle! 3 of 0 in overtime! Jalen Green has 21 points, 8 assists and 5 turnovers, plus or minus -12!
In this game, Jalen Green played 3 shots in overtime, played 39 minutes, 6 of 15 shots, 2 of 7 three-pointers, 7 of 7 free throws, contributed 21 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, 5 turnovers, plus or minus -12. The first quarter is such a good feeling, after the end of the game, the overtime is anxious to miss the three points and can only be brainless, Green just has no whistle, all kinds of fouls are not blown, all kinds of whistles on the opposite side, the referee penalty is one thing, but Green has to learn to adapt, some are disgusting in the future, can not be in a hurry at this time, after all, there are too few offensive means! Losing is also needed for the growth of players, and at the same time, he blames himself for not seizing the opportunity to let the opponent reverse.
Dillon made 8 of 14 shots and hit 5 three-pointers to score 29 points!
In this game, Dillon played 42 minutes, shooting 9 of 14, 5 of 6 three-pointers, and 6 of 7 free throws, scoring 29 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals. It's all in response to the ball, and Dillon has won Doncic's respect in this game! It's rare for Dillon to be on the right game, and the first three points are all about 15 percent of the shooting rate, if it was so accurate earlier, the Rockets would not have lost 5 in a row! Dillon is really hard this time, and several young people of the Rockets are a little sorry for Dillon, as well as Bullock's key three points. Howl more young people next season!
Two indisputable facts
(1) A day without a drop of water, a knee bleeding injury, playing more than 40 minutes, Doncic fought until both knees bleed, Ou Shenxian hit the inside line again and again, Washington lived up to expectations, Exum hit a tie three points, really moving a magical reversal! Classic game! In the end, Doncic and Irving walked together, it was so touching!
(2) I was taught to be a man by Doncic last time, and I was taught to be a man by Irving this time. The young man of the Rockets was really confused, and in the end he didn't know the foul, waiting for the opponent to shoot a three-point shot in overtime...... And you must know that the Rockets led by three points, and Smith actually defended the man under the basket and gave Exum a three-point chance...... The three young people of the Rockets are really hot-headed, Amen has a hot brain and pushes people out of the game, Xiao Jia misses two key free throws, and Smith Jr. really can't support the wall, and directly buries the Rockets' victory in this game, and by the way, he also sent away this season!!Green's overtime is in a hurry, and the brainless breakthrough is covered......
