"I caused us to lose this game. My performance was terrible."

After the game, under Beverley's strict guard, Lillard made 5 of 16 shots and 2 of 7 three-pointers, only scoring 13 points. He blamed himself very much!

In Lillard's opinion, Zhou Si kept feeding the ball even when his touch was not good, but he never found the touch, which was the reason for this defeat.

"My missed three-pointer tonight was one of the reasons why the team lost. I will go back and watch the video to see what I can do better.

I couldn't make the last few three-pointers, and one of them was an open three-pointer."

Lillard blamed himself.

Zhou Si continued to show his leadership qualities:

"I am responsible for tonight's loss. I thought it was me who was driving my teammates, but in the end it was me who failed to guard Harden.

In the next game, each of us must do better than we did tonight, especially me!"

"But we are not panicking or worried after this loss.

This is not the end of the world.

This is a series, you need to win four games to win.

The opponent is a very fighting team. They performed very well tonight and successfully defended their home court.

They won't let us win the next game easily, so we have to play better.

We will also play better!"

In addition, Tracy McGrady also stood up and spoke to stabilize the morale of the military.

"Hey guys, we didn't feel pressured and even in the locker room after the game everyone was upbeat.

The Rockets did what they were supposed to do, but the pressure is still on them."

…

The next day, the closed training ended. Coach Stotts and Zhou Si jointly worked out targeted plans that brought the confidence of the Blazers players back to its peak.

Playing this way, they believe that as long as the Rockets players don't collectively convulse for three consecutive games, they will still win the series.

At this time, the results of the third games of other semifinal groups were also announced one by one.

Curry still struggled against the Turtles' oppressive defense. Even if the elementary school student said before the game that he would "play at 110%," it would be useless.

However, the Warriors still won the game. Thompson was shining brightly. He made 10 of 17 three-pointers and scored 39 points, becoming the biggest contributor to the team's victory.

In addition, Love God Love's performance was not bad either, scoring both inside and outside, scoring a huge double-double of 24 points and 13 rebounds!

Although the Thunder lost the game, the players still strongly expressed that there is still time to play!

Warriors are not the only ones who stand united.

Looking at the process that is different from history, Zhou Si wants to know if the Warriors can collect the fragments of Durant and successfully summon Durant in the offseason if the game continues like this.

In the East, the Cavaliers made another victory and led the Bulls with a score of 2:1.

On the Bulls side, Rose continues to be on his own!

Butler still failed to share too much pressure on him on the offensive end.

For the Cavaliers, under Butler's defense, LeBron James only scored 20 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists.

Irving only scored 17 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists under Rose's defense, but JR got crazy again today and scored a game-high 32 points!

This? It’s too hard to bear!

The Bulls' defense has never been a problem, but their scoring still relies too much on Rose and they are easily targeted.

In the third game against the Pacers, Wade, who shouted "This is my horse," once again stood up in the team's most difficult moment. He took over the game and scored 18 points to lead the team to reverse the situation and help the ball.

The team tied the score before entering the fourth quarter and ignited the atmosphere at home.

It is worth mentioning that 18 points in a single quarter is Wade's new high since 2012.

But in the end, Wade's fiery performance failed to bring the team a victory. With Danny Granger's burst in the fourth quarter, the Heat lost again at home.

Big score 3:0!

What no one expected was that the Pacers might be the only team to advance through the semifinals.

…

On May 9, the fourth game between the Trail Blazers and Rockets will continue at the Toyota Center Arena!

Compared with the previous game, the Rockets players who found a way to win seemed more confident and played tougher.

They could win the last game, and they can still win this one!

They can even win this series!

After the two teams started playing, the scores staggered into the lead.

Without the explosive touch of the previous game, with Zhou Si's control of the court, it will be difficult for the Rockets to replicate the miracle of leading in a wave.

However, the expressions of the commentators in the TNT and Tencent sports commentary booths were the same as those of many Trail Blazers fans in front of the TV, but they were not very optimistic!

In the first two games, the Trail Blazers have always suppressed the Rockets, and the anxious score now speaks volumes.

The pioneers have not found a solution to the problem!

The first quarter ended at 30:30!

58:58 at halftime!

Is this another copy of the script from the previous scene?

In the second half, they fought again in another place. Before the Blazers could use the targeted plans they had formulated previously, the Rockets once again had a magical power outage.

Harden's defensive eyes appeared again.

In front of the TV, several beauties with huge butts looked at each other.

Uh...it's been a day and he hasn't recovered yet?

At this time, Zhou Si and Lillard's three-pointers happened to open, leading the team to blossom more.

With three-point shooting and defensive counterattack, the Trail Blazers directly beat the Rockets 42:19 in the third quarter, establishing a 23-point lead!

During the break, Director Zhang couldn’t help but sigh:

"This is the pioneer we are familiar with!"

Ke Fan even congratulated the Trail Blazers for breaking another NBA record:

"Zhou Si scored 2, Lillard 3, Courtney Lee 2, Jokic 1, the Trail Blazers scored 8 three-pointers in a single quarter, breaking the previous record for three-pointers in the playoffs. Congratulations.

They set a new record."

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Jokic entered a rampage mode and pushed the point difference to 30 points!

Then Coach D'Antoni replaced all the main players and gave up the game early!

132:101!

The Trail Blazers bloodbathed the Rockets, won the match point, and took a 3-1 lead in the series!

In addition, with their stable performance in the fourth quarter, their number of three-pointers hit 22, setting a new league record for three-pointers in the playoffs.

Lillard was 5 of 9, Zhou Si was 4 of 7, Courtney Lee was 3 of 6, Jokic was 3 of 5, McGrady was 3 of 4, Millsap was 1 of 2, Richardson was 1 of 1, Jere

Bucco scored 1 of 2 and Douglas scored 1 of 2.

Pioneers can also go crazy!

After the game, Coach Stotts still poured a bucket of poisonous milk into his mouth:

"We had good luck tonight, but the Rockets played very tenaciously tonight. If they had maintained their defensive intensity in the first half, we might not have won this game."

After winning the game, Zhou Si missed the post-match press conference as usual.

Lillard said:

"This is the playoffs and nothing comes easy.

We still need to play it steady!”

Rockets coach D'Antoni said:

"The opponent was in good form tonight and hit all the difficult goals, but we couldn't respond."
Chapter completed!
