NBA: Being criticized for half a year at the beginning

Curry had an amazing performance in the second quarter, scoring 15 points in a single quarter and 18 points in the first half.

The scores of both teams were not too high. The Zen Master obviously paid more attention to defense this year. Two consecutive years of losses made him realize that he could not defeat the Rockets by attacking.

Harden only scored 4 points and 2 assists when he was double-teamed.

Anthony and Durant scored 7 and 8 points respectively.

In addition to the starting five, only Blake scored two points for the Lakers, and the rest of the points came from the main lineup.

After returning to the locker room, Tang Yu said to Harden: "James, you have to take responsibility. Since they choose to double-team you, you have to break him. You are not a fixed shooter, you are our engine!"

"Boss, I understand what you said, I will break their tactics!"

Tang Yu turned to Curry and continued: "Stephen, keep running, no one can keep up with you, don't forget that you want to be the greatest shooter in history!"

"I will make more shots, and the Rockets will win three consecutive championships."

Finally, Tang Yu said to everyone: "Guys, the playoffs have begun, don't entangle with the opponent anymore. We are a team of kings, we want to build a dynasty! You will all be participants in the dynasty!"

"Houston Rockets!"

"Houston Rockets!"

"Houston Rockets!"

Everyone shouted the name of the Rockets in unison. At this moment, Tang Yu mobilized all the enthusiasm of the Rockets players and planted a seed of victory in their hearts.

After 15 minutes, when the Rockets players entered the court again, their eyes seemed to be spraying with anger, and a domineering aura made everyone feel that the Rockets' aura had changed.

The Lakers took the lead in organizing the offense, and Curry actually led the defense throughout the court. At this moment, even the "primary school students" were more active in defense.

Constantly harassing Paul to organize the offense, Paul finally reluctantly passed the ball to Kobe, and Kobe and Harden also entangled for a long time before he was able to receive the ball.

After receiving the ball, Harden immediately came up, and the Rockets' defensive intensity increased again. Kobe reluctantly dribbled and passed the ball to Gasol.

The offensive time was less than 10 seconds, Gasol quickly passed the ball to Paul, and immediately gave Pac-Man a pick-and-roll. Pac-Man made a hasty shot with little time left after the pick-and-roll, and the result was imaginable.

Stoudemire and Anthony fought for defensive rebounds, Melon was stuck in position, and Durant received the rebound.

The Rockets counterattacked quickly, Durant threw the ball directly to Curry who wanted the ball. After Curry received the ball, he dribbled past Paul with his back to the basket, and Kobe quickly came to make up.

But Curry had no intention of giving the opponent any chance at all, and he stepped on the edge of the Lakers logo and shot directly!

How confident is it to shoot such a three-pointer in such a game.

This piercing arrow flew towards the center of the basket like a cruise missile, and directly entered the net with a hollow sound amid the exclamations of Lakers fans!

The Lakers' on-site commentator was numb, "OMG! It's incredible, I think it's time to make a four-point line! This is the normal shooting range for Stephen!"

After this ball, the Rockets began to strangle the Lakers crazily, and it can be said that they did not give the Lakers any breathing space at all.

Even when facing double-teaming, Harden began to choose to face the front hard. If he could not force a breakthrough, he would choose to find the most suitable passing point to pass the ball.

Even if the number of turnovers increased, the Lakers began to commit more fouls. Facing the Rockets' crazy play without sparing their physical strength, they began to retreat step by step.

At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets opened up the score difference in one fell swoop, 89-77, and the score difference was widened to 12 points. The Rockets won the Lakers by 10 points in a single quarter.

After returning to the bench, Kobe angrily threw the towel handed by the staff on the ground, which shows his anger now.

If he loses to the Rockets again this year, it will be three consecutive seasons to fall in front of the same team, which is unforgivable for Kobe.

Kobe's anger infected his teammates, and they also didn't want to accept failure again.

After the start of the fourth quarter, the Lakers began their Jedi counterattack.

Stoudemire first hit Anthony at the basket and scored 2+1. After scoring, Stoudemire roared to vent his previous depression.

Barnes' subsequent defense successfully blocked Harden's layup. The Lakers' offense and defense transition Paul's layup successfully chased the score again.

Tang Yu urgently called a timeout, not to let the Lakers gain momentum.

Tang Yu yelled at the Rockets players: "Guys, this is the most difficult moment. I know you can withstand their counterattack. We need to get back on the right track."

After the timeout, Durant stepped forward. He used his height advantage to shoot a mid-range shot to face Pietrus and helped the Rockets withstand the Lakers.The counterattack of the people.

Every ball must be fought for, now it is the creed of these two teams, and every goal seems so difficult.

It often takes two or three rounds for both sides to score a goal. The game enters the suffocating time. The fans of the Lakers frantically cheer for their home team, hoping to give strength to the Lakers players on the court.

The game entered the last three minutes, and the Rockets led by 7 points 97-90.

This is the last official timeout, and the final decisive battle is coming.

After the timeout, the Rockets' offense failed. Anthony grabbed the rebound in the frontcourt and then made a strong start under the basket, but was pressed down by Stoudemire. Anthony jumped and made up again, but unfortunately he still missed.

Gasol struggled to grab the backcourt rebound, and Anthony slapped his head with annoyed face.

In the Lakers' offensive round, Kobe directly asked Paul for the ball. Kobe is the most trustworthy at this critical moment.

Facing Harden's defense, Kobe dribbled the ball under his crotch continuously and changed direction to get rid of it. Durant quickly came over to double-team the Black Mamba, and Kobe could only pass the ball.

Gasol continued to shake under the basket to challenge Ibaka, and Ibaka blocked the shot directly out of the sideline.

"Roar!" The Rockets boxing champion roared excitedly, and his teammates surrounded him and clapped their hands excitedly to celebrate.

With less than two seconds left in the offensive time, Stoudemire hurriedly received the ball and shot but failed to hit the target, and Anthony protected the backcourt rebound.

The Rockets scored a key goal with 2 minutes and 14 seconds left in the game. Curry had the energy to run all over the court even though he had already played for 33 minutes.

After getting rid of Paul at the baseline position and going to the right 45 degrees, Anthony saw the opportunity to pass the ball, and Curry quickly flicked the ball without sinking it.

The Lakers players could not keep up with the best shooter in the league, and could only watch the basketball fall into the net!

100-90!

The Rockets established a 10-point advantage, and the Lakers could only go all out. Paul and Gasol picked and rolled and took a three-pointer during the rotation defense, which extended the Lakers' life.

93-100!

As the time entered the last minute, the Rockets began to delay the time, even if they did not score, they had to use up the offensive time.

In the last 30 seconds, when the Rockets were leading by 5 points, Tang Yu once again used the mutual point tactic.

At the end of the game, the Rockets defeated the Lakers, who were the first in the league, 107-103, with a 4-point advantage away from home.

They regained their home advantage!
