Standing pretty old

Chapter 663 Old iron, nothing wrong
However, what I never expected was that the hottest picture on the second day did not belong to the players, but to the third referee—Ed Malloy.

Because when Jon Jonson and Artest kissed each other passionately, Ed Malloy who was not far away showed an indescribably mysterious smile.

So, the troublemaker immediately found this panoramic screenshot and added a caption for Ed Malloy:

"I really envy the two of them. They kissed like this in public. If I can also make a thrilling show, how wonderful it would be!"

Not to mention, Ed Malloy looks fair and white in the referee, coupled with that weird smile, it really makes people suspect that he is a man who shakes M.

Well, old jokes are hard to come by, and it's game time.

The two players who calmed down finally did not magnify the situation. Putting aside the jokes, if there was a fight in the finals, Stern would definitely not spare the two of them lightly. received heavy fines.

Especially Artest, a guy with a criminal record, he calmed down soon after he was separated. If he committed another major crime, Stern may directly ban him for life.

Both sides made their own free throws for technical fouls. It should be pointed out that Dayao was responsible for free throws on the Rockets side, and the center was responsible for direct free throws. This is unique among the 30 teams in the league.

Why was Dayao punished?
This is a problem that can make O'Neill and Howard both faint in the toilet.

The short answer is two words - yes!
After that, Jon Jonsen also hit two foul free throws.

The game continued, but the Hawks still failed to find their offensive rhythm in the second half of the second quarter.

Tonight's game was interrupted by fouls again and again. The actions of the two teams were not small, but the Hawks just couldn't find the touch to shoot.

Ruan Erniu also fell into a difficult situation in the low post. He can still put the ball into the basket in a strong and fierce way, but it is too laborious to play this way.

The shooting touch is contagious. When the Eagles couldn’t make a shot, Er Niu also fell into a state of inaccuracy in the middle distance. This also forced him to compete with Dayao, Mutombo, and Hayes in the low post. Muscle fighting.

At 45:50, according to the usual practice, the visiting team is in front and the home team is behind.

The Atlanta Hawks, who averaged 115+ points per game in the playoffs, only scored 45 points in the half.

Mike Woodson also has nothing to do about it, and the opportunities have come up, but if he can't make a shot, it's useless whoever directs.

During the intermission, Ruan Erniu angrily punched the locker room cabinet. This game was a bit aggrieved.

Dantou comforted him with kind words, and continued to pour chicken soup into the players, explaining in depth the details of each offense and defense.

But knowing and doing are two completely different concepts after all.

The second half of the game started quickly, and the two teams continued to stalemate the progress of the game.

After a few rounds of fighting each other, the Rockets were the first to stand up.

The Rockets had the ball, Brooks held the ball in a high position, and Scola raised the screen. Bibby couldn't keep up with Brooks based on speed alone, so he had to retreat half a step, ready to switch defenses at any time.

Brusque suddenly stood up and made a direct shot from outside the three-point line.

"brush!"

hit!

This is a shot enough to break the deadlock, because the Rockets' outside touch came.

On the offensive end of the Eagles, Jon Jonsen made a 17-foot dry pull~~
"boom!"

Missed!

Yao Ming protected the backboard and immediately made a long pass to find Brooks.

Xiao Bu suddenly changed his speed, and without waiting for Dayao to cross the half court, he immediately broke through with the ball and rushed to the basket.

The lunar eclipse hits the horse, jumping high and about to cover Xiaobu.

At this moment, the little black head has eyes in the back of his head. At the moment of the last shot, he changed his shot into a pass and distributed the ball to Battier in the corner.

Batman caught the ball and shot, "Swipe!"

Hit!
To be honest, Battier's three-point shooting this season is very bad. Compared with the terrifying 48% shooting rate in the playoffs last season, Battier's three-point shooting percentage in the 08-09 season was only less than 30%.

In fact, looking at Battier's career, his three-point shooting rate is like Duan Yu's six-vein sword, which belongs to the state of timing and inefficiency.

If you are accurate, you can kill someone, but if you are strong, you can kill yourself.

However, after the first two finals, the three-point shooting percentage of Duke's top students recovered significantly, and the temperament of the big-game players was suddenly revealed.

The Rockets opened the score in an instant, but the Hawks failed to show their demeanor that they couldn't afford to provoke in the third quarter.

Even if Woodson asked for a timeout, hoping that the team could wake up, it would also be useless.

When you are unlucky, anything unlucky can happen.

Ruan Erniu, who was in a hurry, held the basketball high with one arm, directly broke through the Rockets' defense in the middle, and jumped high without anyone interfering...

"boom!"

The basketball flew straight out, and it is estimated that there will be such an embarrassing scene once or twice a season at most, and it was also encountered by Er Niu.

The slow motion shows that Er Niu's jumping height is fine, but he used too much force and chiseled the ball directly behind the rim, which caused the accident.

The Rockets fans immediately burst into laughter. In the past 2 minutes, the Rockets played a wave of 11:0. For the first time in the finals, they led their opponents by more than 15 points in a single game.

Texas Xiaoqiang's tenacity exceeded people's expectations, and it was the same in the finals.

The Eagles woke up from their dream in the second half of the third quarter and began to chase points desperately, but this still could not shake the Rockets' leading position.

At 70:83, the Rockets continued to maintain a 13-point lead before the start of the final quarter.

In the final quarter of the game, Er Niu and Jiong Jisen, who played the entire third quarter, did not rest at the same time, and the Eagles were going to fight for their lives.

Ruan Erniu showed his low-post dominance in the last quarter, and succeeded in back-to-back singles against Mutombo and Hayes. Among them, Uncle Mu was still in a fast break and completed a humiliating dunk on Uncle Mu.

It is his personal privilege to be able to wag his index finger even after blocking others, but he is getting old.

And another of the Eagles' twin stars-Joe Johnson was also not soft in the final quarter, hitting consecutive three-pointers.

The two attacked together and once brought the score of the two teams within 5 points.

但鹰队其他角色球员本场的表现实在令人失望，末节萨尔蒙斯3投0中，月食3投0中，德拉季奇2投0中，毕比2投1中。

As for the Rockets, there are more blooming points. Yao Ming, Scola, Landry, Artest, Battier, and Brooks all performed well.

Especially Brooks, as Jon Jonson hit a 2-pointer with 3 minutes left in the game, the score gap between the two teams once again came to only 5 points left.

This score has given the Eagles, who have been depressed for three quarters, the hope of a final comeback.

But once again the diminutive Brooks stood up like a hero.

"Brush!", "Brush!"

He was outside the three-point line and made consecutive shots.

……

The scores of the two teams were drawn apart again. As Er Niu and Jon Jonsen missed the last chasing balls successively, the Atlanta Hawks finally ended their 14-game winning streak in the Rockets' home court.

99:108, Teacher Sun Zhenping is right. When one team scores less than 100 points and the other team scores more than 100 points, it is difficult for the team with less than [-] points to win.

But Mr. Sun's quotation in this game is: "Because the Eagles have won two games and the Rockets won another game, we can say that this game was scored 2-1."

Old man, there's nothing wrong with it!
