Chapter 180 The Lakers Narrowly Defeat the Rockets in Double Overtime

Monday is New Year's Day, and today is the first day of 2018.

Waking up in the morning, the system prompts: "The host's current total score is 100 points, the life value is 38 days, and the individual score is 115 points."

At eight o'clock, the game between the Rockets and the Lakers began.

The five-game losing streak of the Rockets returned home to meet the challenge of the five-game losing streak of the Lakers. This is the third time the two teams have faced each other this season. Both sides won one game in the first two games. Capela played with an injury.

The Rockets blossomed more in the first quarter, and they scored a high score to take the lead 44-37.However, the Rockets' shooting percentage dropped in the second quarter and only scored 21 points. The Lakers continued to feel good, winning by 14 points in a single quarter and ending the first half with a 72-65 lead.

After changing sides and fighting again, the Lakers blossomed more and expanded their lead to double digits.

Harden led the team to counterattack in the final quarter and gradually approached the score, but he injured his leg at the end of the game and went straight to the locker room.Green made a three-pointer at a critical moment to help the Rockets drag the game into overtime.

The two teams still did not decide the outcome in the first overtime. Tucker completed a key tip-up in the second overtime and caused the Lakers to make mistakes on the defensive end.

In the end, the Rockets won a thrilling 148-142, ending their 5-game losing streak and giving the Lakers a 6-game losing streak.

"The host lost 20 points in this game. The current total score is 100 points, the life value is 38 days, and the individual score is 95 points." The system said.

"Which is the biggest mistake the Lakers made during regular time in this game?" the system asked.

"Kuzma's defense at the last moment let go of Green's three-pointer." He Pan said.

At the last moment, with more than 20 seconds left in the game, the Rockets trailed by 3 points, Harden retired due to injury, and Paul held the ball to organize.When Paul broke through inside, it was changed to Randall's defense. Kuzma let go of Green who was outside the three-point line and went to the inside to help defend. As a result, Paul passed the ball to Green. Green hit a three-pointer to tie the score. .

Then the Lakers had another chance for a lore. Kuzma chose to force a three-pointer from beyond the three-point line against the defender, and the game entered overtime.

In this attack and defense, Kuzma's choice is very problematic.

Leading by three points, there are more than [-] seconds left. At this time, the priority must be to defend the three-pointer!
Even if Paul gets to the basket and scores two points, the Lakers still lead by one point. The Rockets still have to choose foul tactics. In this way, the high probability event is that the Lakers will win!

How to put it, the free throw percentage is also higher!

Even Paul, facing the opponent's center, how high can his shooting percentage be? !

As long as you pinch three points, there is a high probability of winning the game!

Not to mention the last three points, it is even a brainless hero ball.

If there is an open spot, it doesn't matter whether it is a three-pointer or a two-pointer, it can be shot.

The problem is that someone is defending!

In the second overtime, the Lakers still gave Kuzma the last ball. Kuzma still made a three-pointer, but this ball was seen through by the experienced Tucker, and the ball was still owned by the Rockets!
I have to say that Kuzma still needs more training.

There was a reason why Walton put him on the bench before.

After the game, Kuzma also reflected in an interview with the media: "I learned a lesson today. I made some mistakes on the defensive end. In the last moments of the fourth quarter, Gerald Green got an open shot. The three-point chance, we were three points ahead."

A netizen said: It’s okay, the main task of this year is to grow, to be honest, it’s been bad all these years, this year is not bad...

"The host gets 1 point in this game. The current total score is 100 points. The life value is 38 days. The individual score is 96 points." The system said.

In this game, Harden performed well, scoring 40 points, 2 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Paul also played very well, scoring 28 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists. In overtime, he dominated the game and helped the Rockets won.

The Rockets scored 148 points in a single game in this game and also set a new team scoring record in a single game this season. The previous record was 146 points held by the Nuggets.

Harden and Paul made a lot of small hand movements in this game.

For example, when there were more than seven minutes left in the first quarter, Harden broke through to the basket, passed the ball and pushed No. 10 Ennis with his hand, pushing Ennis to the ground.

At that time, the commentators said that Harden already had an offensive foul, and if he called another one on this ball, Harden should be in a hurry.

For example, at the beginning of the second overtime, Paul pushed Ennis hard with his left hand during a layup, and then made a layup.

After watching the slow motion, the commentator said, this kind of action is up to the referee, and you have nothing to say when you call an offensive foul!

Why didn't you blow it?

Superstar whistle!

As I said before, Harden has a lot of small hand movements. In addition to being good at using his hands to actively find the defender's arm to make a foul, he often pushes when laying up or dribbling.

So is Paul.

In the previous two games where the Rockets played the Clippers and the Celtics, Harden had two offensive fouls called pushing people with his hands in each game.

Once is wronged, what about twice?

One game is black whistle, two games?

In the final analysis, I still have my own problems!

Of course, the rules of the league are that offense is advantageous. Generally speaking, if the opponent hadn't been blown an unreasonable whistle in the last round, this kind of action would basically not be blown on a superstar.

However, if the previous referee's whistle is not good for the opponent, or if the referee's whistle has already given you face, and the opponent has been protesting for a long time, you should restrain yourself!

You can take advantage of this once or twice, but this is not a long-term solution after all.

Once you meet someone like Smart, it's time for you to suffer!

It's got a superstar whistle.

If it were an ordinary player, this kind of action would usually be called an offensive foul directly.

Therefore, when superstars receive some unfair punishments, don't be too indignant.

Because, what you usually enjoy is the good treatment that ordinary players can't enjoy.

The whistle the referee gives you, gives you much more free throws than the average person!

The world is fair!

Not not reporting, time is not here!
……

In other games, the Wizards reversed the Bulls 114-110.

Bradley Beal performed well, scoring 39 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists and 2 steals.

Wizards coach Brooks praised Bill after the game.

"I've been saying this all the time. It's the second year now. Bill is an All-Star." Coach Brooks said, "We've won seven of the last 10 games. It's all about winning. If you can win , to play for each other, then the personal honor will come naturally."

I said it yesterday, and I said it today, and in the second year, there is nothing wrong with it!

Lillard said: This is my first... Forget it, let's not talk about it.

……

The 3-game losing streak of the Pacers played against the Timberwolves at home, and Oladipo continued to miss due to injury.

In the end, the Timberwolves beat the Pacers 107-90 away, giving their opponents a 4-game losing streak.

Losing is not terrible, whoever is missing is the boss!Oladipo is a giant!

……

The Celtics narrowly beat the Nets 108-105 and won 3 consecutive victories.

The coach of the Nets is also good, but he has no cards in his hand.

……

The Clippers beat the Hornets at home 106:98, celebrating their three-game winning streak.

本场比赛，路威40分8助攻，格里芬25分7板6助2帽。

Looks like Griffin is the only Iron Man to beat the Kardashians so far!
……

The Grizzlies beat the Kings 114-96.

The Grizzlies, which averaged only 98.7 points per game, have seen their scoring surge in the last two games!

It seems that playing a game with the Warriors has opened up the offense of the Grizzlies!

Curry: It's my fault too...

……

The Mavericks beat the Thunder 116-113 to win.

Daniels of the Mavericks performed very well, scoring 11 points in a row at the critical moment of the final quarter to help the Mavericks win the game.

The Big Three of the Thunder also played very well. Westbrook scored 28 points, 17 rebounds and 38 assists on 15 goals in 11 shots. Paul George scored 12 points in 25 shots. Quite high, Anthony took 15 shots and scored 21 points, and the efficiency is also good.

The team's biggest problem is defense.

The Thunder, which averaged less than 100 points per game this season and ranked third in the league in defensive points, allowed the Mavericks, which averaged only 101 points per game, to score 116 points in this game!
It can be seen that Robertson's absence still has a great impact on the Thunder.

"Will the host bet on the game between the Raptors and the Bucks tomorrow?" the system asked.

"Bet 10 points, the Bucks win." He Pan said.
