The Rockets did not make a good attack, but when they turned around, the Clippers played the previous cooperation again. Tang Shuai ran out again with Green's pick-and-roll, and Paul's pass arrived soon.

This time the Rockets learned their lesson, and Morris rushed out.

After receiving the ball, Tang Shuai noticed the Rockets' defense changes. After Morris rushed over, he directly knocked the ball to Green. When Green was pick-and-roll, he had already put Arizaka who was defending behind him. At this moment, under Tang Shuai's passing with advance amount, he rushed directly to the basket after getting the ball.

Howard was pulled to the low post on the left by Jordan Jr. When he saw Green rushing in, he turned around and rushed over.

His judgment was correct, but his body was a little unable to keep up with the idea, and his speed was obviously much slower than his peak period.

When Green saw Howard come back to defend, he made a shot in advance.

Howard just arrived at the basket and flew and was about to block the block.

If it were his peak period, he would have blocked 100%. After all, he was a man who led the team to the finals at the time, but now his health is no longer the same as before, and the height of his jumping will be no longer the same as before.

The basketball flew past his fingertips, hit the rebound with a "bang", and then bounced into the net bag.

The Clippers scored again!

Howard, who landed on the ground, seemed very upset and punched his hand in anger.

In just one round, you can see the big problem of the Rockets' defense.

The Rockets' players' understanding of Howard is still at the peak. They rarely consider returning to defense when defending, but think that he can solve all defensive problems. However, the reality is that he is no longer the original him.

The Rockets' offense is still playing against Harden. This time he used Morris' pick-and-roll, then knocked the ball back to Morris, and Morris made a tough layup after taking the ball.

This little cooperation is very skillful, and it is also a change for Morris to the Rockets after his arrival.

The Rockets' offense at the beginning was completely fine, but the defense was still as bad as ever.

Paul organized the offense, and a simple pick-and-roll made a shooting opportunity, and he directly pulled out and scored 2 points.

The Clippers made all the top three shots, with a 100% shooting percentage.

The cheers at the scene were deafening, and some fans held up Paul and Shuai Tang’s big-headed dolls to cheer for the home team.

The commentators on the scene were home commentator Mike Smith and ***'s special commentator Reggie Miller.

"The Rockets' defense is like the road in the early morning. If I were on the court, it would be no problem to get a 20-tenth." Miller couldn't help but sigh. In fact, continuous scoring at the beginning was not a rare thing, but such an easy scoring is rare. You must know that this is the playoffs.

"I think the twenty-tenth may be a little less, and the thirty-tenth is a relatively optimistic estimate." Smith said with a laugh. As the home commentator of the Clippers, he naturally caters to the fans on the scene as much as possible.

Miller was so happy that he was said by Smith.

The comments of the live commentator were a reaction to the situation on the scene. From their conversation, we can see how bad the Rockets' defense is.

Rockets coach Bickstaff and his players had heard about all this, but their performance had not changed at all.

Harden's offense was very strong tonight, and he wanted to break through Brewer with the ball. But Brewer was too familiar with him. He broke through for a long time and didn't get in. In the end, there was no way. Seeing that the attack time was approaching, he shook his hand and gave the ball to Beverly beside him. Beverly threw a three-pointer before the buzzer.

Beverly's shooting percentage was average, so it was impossible to make a hasty shot. The rebound was bounced into Green's hand, and Green gave Tang Shuai to the outside line, and Tang Shuai was swinging his hand to Paul who was swinging his hand to the fast attack.

Paul was ahead of the dead. Seeing that there was no hope of defense, the Rockets players gave up returning to defense and watched Paul score a layup.

Paul won the fourth goal of the Clippers' opening game!

All the starts! A fantastic start!

After scoring the goal, Paul seemed a little excited. When he retreated, he spread his hands and kept waving upwards, and the cheers at the scene became even more intense.

Bickstaff called a pause helplessly.

"Guys, we need more movement and more energy. We are in the playoffs now, and we have to put all our energy into defeating our opponents!" Bickstaff was constantly trying to boost the morale of the team, but except for a few players, others turned to look at the next to them from time to time, as if they were absent-minded.

From this detail, it can be seen that the Rockets have a big problem, and the players are not as united as Beverly said.

After the timeout, the Rockets finally did not let Harden attack again. Instead, they played a small tactic. Morris took advantage of Howard's pick-and-roll without the ball and received a pass from Harden to shoot a mid-range shot at the free throw line.

Morris is a top-notch forward player. His strongest part is his sense of position on the court. His best move after pick-and-roll is his specialty. Such players prefer the offensive method to hit the basket instead of such a middle distance.

Bickstaff obviously has some lack of understanding of his players.

"Bang!"

Morris jumped out of the basket from the middle distance, but fortunately Howard got stuck this time, grabbed the rebound, and turned around and wanted to make a basket.

However, Jordan Jordan is obviously not a vegetarian. When Howard turned around, he had already pressed his body against him. When he took action, he even reached out to block it.

In order to avoid blocking, Howard's shooting angle after adjustment was obviously deviated.

The basketball ended up in the basket and was grabbed into his arms by Jordan.

The Rockets' offense once again failed!

Howard shook his head in annoyance. If he had been at his peak, he would have turned around and made a dunk, so there would have been so many troubles in the future, but he was obviously no longer at the peak.

Jordan Jr. grabbed the rebound and gave it to Paul. Paul pushed it to the frontcourt. He was originally going to call his teammates to play pick-and-roll, but when he saw Beverly retreating a big step back, as if he was guarding against his breakthrough, he raised his hand and threw a three-pointer.

As a representative of the stable point guard, Paul rarely shoots three-pointers in the game. Once he chooses a three-pointer, it means he is quite sure.

This is how this ball is. Paul's shooting gives people the feeling that this ball will be.

"Swish!"

A crisp sound, three-pointer, in!

The Clippers made all the first four shots, including 2 three-pointers!

"Chris Paul!!" The dj on the scene shouted Paul's name loudly, and the cheers on the scene rose by another decibel.

With Paul's three-pointer, the Clippers led by 6 points 10-4!

"Press up! Pick up!" Bickstaff could no longer calm down. He could not have called another timeout immediately after calling one timeout. He could only roar at Beverly.
Chapter completed!
