Chapter 957 Rocket vs Mavericks

April 28.

The two focus battles in the West will start in Houston and San Antonio respectively.

They are the games between the Spurs and the Clippers, and the Rockets and the Mavericks.

First is the former.

After the Spurs lost to the Clippers in the last game, the score between them came to a 2:2 tie.

If the Spurs can win this game, then this game will be the match point of the entire series.

And once the Clippers lose to the Spurs, they will be under a lot of pressure to return to their home court in the next game.

As for the Rockets and Mavericks in the second game, their situation will be much different.

Because the Rockets have already won the match point of the series, as long as they stabilize at their home court, they will only advance.

As two key battles in the Western Conference, Qin Tao will naturally not miss the game.

Watching the game with him was Zach LaVine and the others. When almost everyone was present, the living room of his house became very lively.

Beer goes.

Snacks are eaten.

Qin Tao and the others are very nourishing, but who told them that their game is over?

soon.

The first game started first.

This is how the two sides started.

As the visiting team, the Mavericks gave them the first time on the big screen.

The center is the Mavericks' one-time champion center, Tyson Chandler.

His defense is still very good, but unfortunately the offense is too slow.

But when the Mavericks took him back then, they positioned him as the inside guard!

Although Chandler's current competitive state is not as good as before, he can still bring a lot of help to the Mavericks.

The power forward is naturally Dirk Nowitzki, as long as the team has him, then he is a pinnacle!

Small forward is El-Farouq Aminu.

The striker, who is said to have royal blood, was actually not happy in his first few seasons.

He was the No. 10 rookie in [-] years, but he only played one season with the Clippers and was traded to the then New Orleans Hornets in the second year.

The experience of fighting with Paul gave him a better understanding of basketball.

But things are impermanent.

Originally thought that he would spend his first ten years with the Hornets, but who knew that the team did not want to renew his contract, so that he was brought to Dallas by the Mavericks.

So far this season, Aminu's efficiency on the field is not bad, and because of his style of play, he has become a trustworthy 3D player.

The shooting guard is the former Warriors boss, Monta Ellis.

His joining is actually a very pleasant surprise for the Mavericks.

Perhaps because of Nelson's father, Don Nelson once coached him, the Mavericks management trusts him very much.

But there is no doubt that Ellis at this stage is no longer the scoring maniac he was back then. Although he still takes a lot of shots, the drop in shooting percentage is really terrible.

However, Ellis has maintained a good state this season, and in some important games, he can still play the role of a terminator well.

As the point guard of the Mavericks, Jose Balia has basically proved himself, but his talents are limited. If he wants to get better treatment and his position in the tactics, it may be difficult for him to have a better room for improvement. .

Then there's the Rockets.

The Rockets' starting center is still Dwight Howard. This guy looks very good this season, but he actually has some criticisms against Harden.

Especially after some good reporters asked Howard's friends, the final answer was really surprising.

Because the relationship between Howard and Harden is not as harmonious as their record this season, and even the two almost fell out in person.

The truth of this is surprising, and even shocked some fans who like them.

They couldn't imagine that the two core members of the team could lead the team to such a record under such a relationship.

What if their relationship wasn't strained?

What if they cooperate sincerely?

Are they trying to win the championship?

Immediately.

Topics like this are so rampant that the entire network is in a state of boiling.

However, with the start of the playoffs, most of these remarks suddenly disappeared.

After analyzing and verifying the fans who had such a good thing, they are very convinced that this is all due to the Rockets' public relations.

of course.

This has nothing to do with the game, as long as they can win, all this is not a problem.

The power forward is Terrence Jones, the little prince of abuse.

Since Qin Tao left, the competition between him and Motai Yunas has never stopped.

If it weren't for his personal ability and good on-court status, McHale might not hesitate to reuse Motiejunas instead of him, a guy who is afraid of tough battles.

For small forwards, the Rockets have already settled for Trevor Ariza.

With him on the wing, there is no doubt about what he can bring to the team.

And he also has a long-range shooting ability, but the hit rate is not as high as expected.

The shooting guard is naturally Harden.

He is fully capable of competing for the regular season MVP this season, but the final result is somewhat disappointing.

Simply this guy has a good mentality. Even if the honor and team relationship are not ideal, he is still the strongest player of the Rockets on the court!

The point guard, of course, is Patrick Beverley.

Little Crazy Dog has grown into a pioneer in the backcourt, especially when Harden's defense is super weak, he can always bring good returns.

After the two teams started to assemble, then there was a jump ball.

Ken Moore, the referee for the game, looked very serious, warned them something, and then there was the jump ball.

Howard and Chandler, if the latter can be two or three years younger, then they will definitely be able to fight the former.

But getting old is getting old, and your physical fitness is not as good as before. Naturally, jumping the ball will not get the ball for the team.

Beverly immediately received the basketball ordered by Howard, yelled and ran to the frontcourt.

According to the Rockets' tactics, the starting point of the offense must be Harden.

Simultaneously.

Because Ellis is not a good defensive player, Harden immediately launched an offense after getting the ball.

His breakthrough is very sharp, and the fake moves that can be seen everywhere are as if people are in the street, looking very gorgeous.

of course.

This is compared with other professional players. If he meets a real street master, what awaits him is a series of fancy moves to the extreme.

Ellis' body is also not dominant, making it easy for Harden to complete the breakthrough, but following this guy is an iconic step-back shot!

Two points from a distance!

Harden played very confidently, but after the big screen gave him a close-up, it gave Howard the first time.

The big man has no expression on his face, and it seems that he is not very happy now.
