Chapter 110

"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to Houston. This is Rocket City and the home team of the Rockets. Today TNT brings you the national live broadcast of the Clippers vs. Rockets. My name is Mike Brown."

"I'm Reggie Miller."

"We can see that although Leonard said before the game that he was doubtful about his injury, he was still warming up on the spot. And he has already appeared in the starting position of the Clippers."

"Hahahaha, everyone is used to seeing this kind of smoke bomb, right?"

"We have two quizzes for this game. The topics are: Can Qin Ming continue to score a double-double in this game? Who will get the double-double first, James Harden or Qin Ming?"

"Qin Ming, Qin Ming. I have heard this name countless times this season."

"You can't deny that he has become a benchmark that can't be avoided anywhere."

The Clippers and Rockets started jumping the ball.

The Clippers' starting lineup has been slightly adjusted: Qin Ming, Lu Wei, Paul George, Leonard, Morris.

They put on their own dead five at the beginning.

This also surprised many commentators and commentators.

"The Clippers put up what we said before the game with the most powerful five small lineups at the very beginning."

"What is this for? Is it going to kill the game in the first quarter?"

"And the Rockets' starting lineup remains unchanged. Westbrook and James Harden play in the backcourt, James Harden and Courtney Lee are the strikers, and Covington is at the center."

"In fact, if you really count, the Rockets' starting lineup is not very disadvantaged. They are not very big, and Covington is just responsible for protecting the frame."

"Yes, both sides jump ball."

Morris and Covington jumped the ball, but he didn't jump at all, allowing the Rockets to get the right to the first attack.

James Harden held the ball on the outside, and he first had a pick-and-roll screen with Covington.

Covington blocked Leonard, and James Harden slid down directly to face Morris, who was switching defenses. At this time, Covington carried Leonard to the inside for an air cut.

James Harden's pass was over his head, and because it was so high, Leonard couldn't reach it at all.

Covington got the ball and made a small throw directly.

"James Harden is also very smart here. As soon as I see you using the fifth player, then my side will directly start the pick-and-roll air cut to hit the inside."

"And the Clippers actually don't have much to do in the face of this."

It's the Clippers' turn to attack.

Qin Ming advanced to the backcourt, Westbrook didn't give him any space, and directly stuck to him. Qin Ming watched the running positions of his teammates and passed a direct pass to Lu Wei at a 45-degree angle. Then he sank to the bottom and set a cover for Paul George.

At this time, Paul George, who had already passed through the screen twice, ran out, caught and shot.

Because Covington is responsible for protecting the inside frame, he can at most mention the free throw line to defend, and every player on the Clippers can come out to pick and roll, so Paul George shot very decisively.

"Paul George made a three-pointer!"

"The fight is all about efficiency. This season, the Clippers are shooting 40.00% from beyond the arc, while Covington is shooting 60.00% from inside."

"Based on this calculation, the Clippers are actually not afraid of Covington's continuous attack on the inside. Because my efficiency is about the same as yours."

In fact, it is.

James Harden still holds the ball from the outside, allowing Covington to play singles inside.

As soon as James Harden passed the ball in, the Clippers quickly double-teamed. After Covington was double-teamed, he didn't play the ball, so don't worry.

But the hands of Paul George and Morris kept interfering with his vision and interfering with his passing line, so Covington had to pass the ball.

Lu Wei and Qin Ming on the outside line began to take turns.

And just as Covington passed, Qin Ming started to rotate, and Eric Gordon passed the ball back again.

The moment Covington caught the ball, he made a fallback jumper and hit the board.

"This is impossible."

"Yes, because Covington raised the ball, no one in the Clippers can reach it. And there is really nothing you can do about such a person playing dry pull with you."

second round.

Qin Ming held the ball from the outside and let Morris come out for a pick-and-roll. Covington also defended the ball.

After switching defenses, Qin Ming searched for his own rhythm, stepped off the dribble, followed by a shuffling step, and then quickly passed Covington, and ran to the inside to pick the blue at an extremely fast speed.

Covington couldn't keep up at all, let alone other players who didn't dare to come up to help defend.

"The Clippers chose to challenge Covington. Qin Ming made a layup after passing Covington."

"The Rockets are still playing hard."

James Harden challenged Paul George from the outside, with consecutive crotch and drag steps, and then a probing step followed by a retreat step to make a three-pointer. This goal was also scored.

"But we can see that although the Rockets don't have an advantage, their opening touch and style of play are very reasonable, and they can hit every ball. If they can maintain a high-efficiency offense throughout the game, then the Clippers actually don't have an advantage."

Qin Ming held the ball from outside and passed it to Leonard.

The latter also let Morris come up to the pick-and-roll, and Leonard broke through at the moment of the screen. At this time, the two Rockets chased Leonard, trying to kill him and prevent him from passing the ball easily.

But Leonard passed directly to Morris on the outside. The latter made a fake shot, shook the defender and then directly started to break through to the inside.

At this time, the Rockets' rotation came back again, and Morris passed to Qin Ming in the bottom corner.

The latter made a three-point shot directly with the ball. This shot has a hit rate of 80.00% five, which is also a steady hit.

"When the ball turns to Qin Ming, it's basically a goal."

"Yes, Qin Ming took more than 580 three-pointers this season, maintaining a shooting rate of 50.00%. Compared with Curry in the 16 season, it is almost the same. His three-point threat is actually great, but to be honest, more coaches are willing to double-team Curry instead of Qin Ming."

"Yes, because Curry made a very exaggerated shot that season. Every time he dribbles, he can directly lift his basketball and shoot. Qin Ming can't do this."

The Rockets are temporarily behind.

James Harden passed to Westbrook, who directly broke through with the ball and carried Qin Ming to the inside to kill, causing Qin Ming's foul.

Eric Gordon made two free throws.

Qin Ming came back from the dribble, and Eric Gordon was directly waiting for him near the halfway line.

Qin Ming dribbled the ball directly under his crotch after disguised in front of his body, which made Eric Gordon's hand that wanted to take the ball a flaw. He threw off his ball protector and passed Eric Gordon directly.

At this time, there was a big void in front of my eyes.

Qin Ming rushed to the inside at an accelerated speed, Covington came up to help defend, and the basketball quickly flew into the hands of Morris on the bottom line.

Eric Gordon wanted to come up with a fake defense to interrupt Morris' shot, but the latter ignored his defense and directly shot a three-pointer.

This goal is also scored.
