Boozdrick didn't have much to do, after all, Harden's current technical characteristics are like this.
He is more about reading the Pelicans' defense, and then allowing Harden to score more points and to hit the basket more resolutely.
After all, Jokic is not a defensive tycoon.
Pause back.
The Rockets did not continue to attack Harden, but Paul organized a hand.
The Pelicans' execution is also very strong. Harden does not hold the ball, and they are normal people.
Cousins backed the basket and was assisted by Davis, who scored for Morris, who hit a mid-range jumper and finally broke the scoring drought for the Rockets.
Tang Tiantu gave Davis a mid-range chance. He missed a little and missed.
Cousins protected a defensive rebound.
Rockets opportunity.
Paul went on to give Cousins the ball.
This time Cousins faced a double-pointer and was scored by Davis.
The Pelicans fought back and Tang Tian assisted Ariza with a dunk.
10 to 2.
The Pelicans started a little better.
The Rockets had to hit Cousins in the frontcourt, and Jokic didn't give a chance around.
Paul didn't have a chance to rush into the basket, only to give Harden the ball out.
As soon as Harden held the ball, Ariza defended around the left side. Harden was forced to go only on the right and had to guard Ariza behind him at any time.
He hit the basket and welcomed Jokic's throw.
Jokic straightened his long arms to interfere.
"Dang!"
His throw was a bit behind, and he slammed into the back of the rim and popped up!
0 for 4 shots!
The opening rounds became the epitome of the first quarter.
Harden and the Rockets have never found a way to break the Rockets defense strategy.
Harden made 0 of 7 shots in this quarter. Only by hitting Jokic twice, he scored 4 points and made the worst game of the season.
After the first quarter, the Pelicans led 28-18.
Thanks to Morris and Paul's performance is not bad, otherwise Harden's performance, the game spent a quarter.
In the second quarter, Jokic led the Pelicans and Paul led the Rockets.
Paul didn't stop in the first quarter. The efficiency of the game was not high at the moment, and Jokic on the Pelicans side came off early and came back to life.
With this one off the bench, the Pelicans have led the Rockets by 15 points 37-2.
The Rockets' bench is still weak.
"Harden must play. They can't lose so easily in two consecutive games, man, this is your team!"
Barkley is very dissatisfied with the Rockets' performance. He is a famous rocket, and this dissatisfaction is normal.
The best team in history is like this bird, he really wants to play on his own.
Back in the second quarter, the Rockets' offensive focus shifted to the paint.
But Davis contracted and defended resolutely. Morris missed three consecutive points on the perimeter. Instead of narrowing, the point gap was further enlarged.
Harden shot three times in this section, but without exception, they all ended in iron.
On the one hand, the Pelicans' defensive strategy, and on the other hand, his mindset has fluctuated repeatedly.
After halftime, the Pelicans led the Rockets by 20 to 55 with 35 points.
Harden made 0 of 10 shots and made 5 of 7 free throws. He scored 5 points, 3 assists and 3 turnovers.
Harden scored a new record with ten shots in the half without a sports goal.
This is obviously not a good thing.
For the Rockets fans on the hotline, they can only pray that Harden can find it in the second half.
"If it were me, I would definitely find a hole to drill in myself, man, this is the playoffs!"
Barkley slammed the table at halftime and he couldn't stand Harden's performance.
"Don't even force up, the Rockets have fallen."
O'Neal laughed beside him.
"Stevens's tactical targeting is too good. It can only be hoped that the Rockets have a half-time adjustment."
Smith did not gloat like O'Neal, but analyzed it professionally.
Back in the second half, the Rockets did make adjustments, D'Antoni replaced Bamort with Morris, this is clearly to pull space.
In the first round up, Harden broke through with the ball and then gave the ball to Tucker.
Davis contracted and returned a little too late, Tucker hit a three-pointer.
Tang Tian's response was quick. Before Stevens spoke, he motioned for Davis to stop contracting next round.
Davis backed Tucker from a low post and turned back to hit.
D'Antoni switched to a big, a small and a small lineup, and the defense of the four position is very problematic.
Harden continued to the frontcourt, Davis did not shrink, he directly used his foul-making ability to make Jokic's personal third foul.
With two free throws, the Rockets narrowed the difference to 17 points.
From the perspective of offensive effects, the Rockets' adjustment effect in this half is not bad.
Stevens called Biyombo from the bench after seeing it.
The Pelicans are now out of position four, and the offense is not a big problem. Instead, Jokic's defense is somewhat delayed.
Davis continued to attack Tucker in the frontcourt and turned to make a Tucker defensive foul.
Dead ball in the game, Biyombo replaced Jokic.
Davis made two free throws to help the team maintain a 19-point lead.
The Rockets still played Harden, Davis did not defend, Harden welcomed Biyombo's throw.
"boom!"
Biyombo is not Jokic. His offense is N streets away from Jokic, but the defense is one stop better than Jokic.
Using his long arm, he gave Harden a big hat that split his head and covered his face.
0 of 11 shots!
However, Harden's response was very fast. After catching the ball, he leaned and shot again ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Bi Yongbo didn't cover it, but his hands were really long and gave him enough interference.
"Dang!"
The basketball ball popped on the right edge, still not going!
0 of 12 shots!
Harden still has no sports goals!
D'Antoni reached for his hair and was going crazy.
Davis didn't make a back-up jumper, Harden didn't believe in evil, and defensively hit Tang Tian's defense to try to foul, but Tang Tian escaped without success.
"Dang!"
0 of 13 shots!
Smith couldn't bear to cover his face.
Barkley has a look you love.
Only O'Neal laughed aside.
Harden took some autism, and didn't make a shot for a long time.
The Pelicans only used Ariza to guard him, increasing defense against Cousins and Paul.
As a result of this quarter, the difference between the two sides was further widened, and they were already running for 30 minutes.
The Rockets lost more than the first game.
But the worst thing was Harden. He made 0 of 15 shots at the end of the third quarter and barely scored 10 points by free throws.
This is definitely the worst battle of his career.
In the last quarter of garbage time, neither of the main players appeared again. The Pelicans finally beat the Rockets 101 to 80 again, rewriting the big score to 2 to 0.
Harden scored 10 points, 5 assists, 2 steals and 4 turnovers on 0 of 15 shots. There were no sports goals.
He also broke Jordan's previous record of 0-for-11 shooting and became a new record holder.
The first D'Antoni maneuver made the Rockets bloody.
However, in the second game, the two sides opened up. As O'Neill said in the commentary, Tang Tian had not exerted force and the Rockets had fallen.
