"In this game, under Zhou's defense, you made 3 of 17 shots without a free throw and only scored 7 points. What do you want to say?"

"What do you want me to say? I have nothing to say."

Harden, who was being interviewed, said helplessly.

He also wants to be able to score points and make free throws, but he can't do it.

Coach Stotts of the Trail Blazers looked worried:

"Harden's touch was not good in this game, so we won with difficulty. Harden will definitely find his touch in the next game. You must know that he is the number one defender in the league!"

Leonard, who was teased by the media before the game, made a wave of counter-tease.

"Haha, I'm sorry everyone, I wasn't crushed by Howard.

I don’t know why he took so few shots today. I remember less than ten, right?

I think if the Rockets want to win, they should let Warcraft catch the ball more. It is completely unreasonable for the team boss to take so few shots.

And I feel that his shooting percentage today is at least 70%, which is very efficient.

Haha, Dwight, I have spoken for you, please show mercy in the next game!"

Leonard planted a seed at Zhou Si's instruction and waited for it to take root and sprout.

After training on the second day, Howard immediately became energetic after hearing what the reporter said:

"Thanks to Leonard for speaking up for me, but I can't focus solely on the number of catches. I can't care about whether I got the ball or not. I have to do what I need to do no matter what."

In fact, Howard has already had opinions on this matter.

It's just that he always wanted to win the championship and as the boss, he endured it.

Now that his opponents are all complaining about him, it's not too much for him to give some suggestions.

"I think we passed the ball an average of 2 or 3 times before shooting,"

Howard said:

"We need to pass the ball more and let more people participate in the offense, so that the opponent can defend with all their strength within 24 seconds.

Rather than giving the opponent a chance to rest on the court!"

“As a competitive player, I just want to do my job well, whether I can get the ball or not, whether I get 2 points or 30 points, I will play hard on the court!

Being able to play and win the game is the most important thing."

After seeing the news, Zhou Si discovered that Warcraft has really matured. He is not asking for the ball or more opportunities to catch the ball, but for a smoother offensive system!

But Zhou Si knew that Howard was going to be disappointed.

Because D'Antoni has never created any smooth offensive system.

Pass it on, throw it away and that’s it!

Zhou Si silently lit a candle for Howard.

This summer, it seems that one of Howard and D'Antoni will leave.

Just as coaches Zhou Si and Stotts were studying the Rockets' possible next tactics, the results of several other sets of duels were also released one by one.

For the Western Conference team, Westbrook's defense made Curry very uncomfortable. He only scored 24 points in the first game.

And Westbrook himself had 34 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists!

But it was Durant who decided the outcome of this game.

When Durant looked emotionless and threw in the winning three-pointer over Iguodala in the last 0.5 seconds, Zhou Si seemed to hear the sounds of heartbreak in the Oracle Arena.

Zhou Si remembers that in his previous life, the Warriors who had won 73 games were defeated by the Thunder 3:1!

So Zhou Si may be the most acceptable one for the Thunder to win against the Warriors.

'I just don't know if the Warriors can cross the Thunder mountain in this life, and if they can get the pieces of Durant...'

However, Zhou Si was quite happy with the result of the Warriors being hammered. He must have felt deflated because the elementary school student was always so arrogant.

Come on Turtle!

Over in the east, Zhou Si was pleased to hear the results.

The knight failed to tame the bull, but was turned over by the bull's horns, dripping with blood!

Watching Rose facing JR's step-back and buzzer-beating mid-range buzzer beater, Zhou Si couldn't help but exclaim.

As expected of me, Brother Luo, awesome!

“Derek, that shot of yours was really cool!

come on!

Kill the knight!"

SMS congratulations are also arranged.

In another matchup in the Eastern Conference, James' good friend Wade also lost.

Pickle, who had just entered the second defensive line, maintained his good touch in the first round and continued to carry the Pacers forward.

But winning the first game relied more on the outburst of ‘Gao Yuanyuan’ Hibbert.

23 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks.

It’s really ‘eating, sleeping and keeping warm’!

…

On May 3, the G2 game of the Western Conference semifinals between the Trail Blazers and Rockets continued at the Rose Garden Arena.

The fans at the scene were obviously more excited than the day before yesterday.

There is no way, Portland fans now know very well that this game may be the last time they see the Rockets this season. Not to mention, they are really reluctant to part with it.

During the warm-up, the broadcast camera panned between Harden and Howard.

Obviously, Howard's speech yesterday and the "leadership battle" between Howard and Harden leaked from within the Rockets have aroused the interest of the majority of fans.

After the introduction of the starting lineup, the players entered the scene, and the starting lineups of the two teams were shown on the big screen!

Neither side's starting lineup has been adjusted.

Naturally, the Trail Blazers don't need to adjust if they win. The Rockets seem to think that losing on the field is just because of their bad touch?

Both sides jump the ball and the game begins!

Howard once again beat McGee with a jump, giving the Rockets the first opportunity to attack.

Lawson held the ball across half court and reached the top of the arc in the middle.

Leave it to the right-wing Bosh organization.

Harden, who was being guarded by Zhou Si, used Bosh to get around the screen, and then came to the free throw line and received Bosh's ground pass.

"It's interesting!

The Rockets finally started to play tactics!"

Director Zhang explained.

"Yes, the Blazers have also made adjustments and switched defenses."

Ke Fan added.

On the court, the Trail Blazers switched defenses quickly, with Zhou Si switching to guard Bosh and Millsap guarding Harden.

This is also the strategy formulated by coaches Zhou Si and Stotts before the game.

Unlimited defense changes!

Harden's continuous changes of direction had no chance, and he gave it to Lawson in the left corner.

Lawson quickly broke through and passed Lillard straight into the penalty area before flying for a layup!

"boom--!"

McGee’s volleyball hat is sent directly to you!

Bosh fought hard to get the offensive rebound, and then passed it to Josh on the outside.

Josh made a sudden move and was blocked by Zhou before returning to Bosh.

"Shua——!"

Bosh's mid-range hit!

2:0!

Team Rocket takes the lead!

"Good shot, Bosh."

Ke Fan explained.

"Yes, the Rockets played so patiently, passing the ball so many times.
