Standing pretty old

Chapter 671 The lunar eclipse takes away the skill package, and the shooter of the second courtyard welcomes the spring
"Snapped!"

This time, Er Niu took the lead by virtue of the bullet speed advantage, and put the ball in the hands of Salmons first.

Salmon passed the ball to Bibby, Bibby held the ball for half court, and immediately handed the ball to Jiongsen who wanted the ball in the low post.

Good tactics must be persisted. Since the Rockets have no power to fight back in G4, the Eagles, as the winner of G5, will never change easily, vowing to continue the proven attack mode.

There is no problem for Artest to defend against Jon Jonson alone, but he can only handle Jon Jonson's personal offense, not Jon Jonson's pass.

The Eagles crossed positions, and Ruan Erniu at the top arc was once again in an unguarded position, and Jiongsen immediately sent the ball over...

Three days have passed, and the Rockets have finally learned to be smart tonight. Rather than let Yao Ming defend the second bull and get shot in various faces, it is better to let Scola fill the position. Although relying on the athletic talent of the Argentine dance king, he still It is difficult to stop Ruan Erniu's projection.

"boom!"

Ruan Erniu strikes iron with three points!
Dayao protected the backcourt rebound, and after receiving the pass, Brooks slowly controlled the ball across half court.

After a speed change, Xiaobu used Artest's cover to enter the penalty area, riding the Eagles' defensive foothold, and made a pick basket.

The Hawks' possession of the ball was very similar to the round just now, and Er Niu got an open chance at the top arc.

"boom!"

Not yet!
Obviously, after G4's three-point performance, at least in the opening stage of G5, Er Niu's three-point skills are still in a cooling state.

Continue to cast, is the only ice-breaking plan, but the stage of the finals obviously does not allow Er Niu to squander the opportunity like this.

This time the basketball bounced farther away, and Jon Jisen struggled to get the offensive rebound. After making a fake shot, he again distributed the ball to Er Niu in the high position.

Ruan Erniu chose to break through with the ball and directly attack the basket, but was sent a big cap by Dayao who had been waiting in the paint for a long time.

Battier got the rebound from the backcourt and immediately sent a long pass. Brooks took the lead and ran in the forefront, with an easy three-step layup, adding two more points for the Rockets.

Woodson immediately asked for a 24-second timeout. The Hawks' offensive execution was fine, and the missed shots were not entirely a matter of two bulls, but they couldn't be forgiven if they didn't retreat in time.

"Don't expect Kraft to solve the problem alone, and the Bulls didn't rely on Jordan to build a dynasty.

Opponents must pay attention to the problem of retreating when switching offense and defense. I don't want to see the Rockets have the opportunity to directly attack the basket again. "

Back from the timeout, the Eagles continued to attack.

Ruan Erniu didn't dare to hang around in the high position anymore. Erniu, who received the basketball in the low position, used his P stock to kill a bloody path. Got the Hawks' first goal in G5.

Facts have proved that the big P stock is still reliable at the critical moment. Although the player's shooting touch is invincible in the world, once it enters the cooling time, it is enough to cause fatal damage to the team.

Fortunately, although Erniu's long-range shots are not good, it doesn't mean that the Eagles have no one else to stand up.

Dragic, who came off the bench for Bibby, completed the task very well. He not only followed Brooks' footsteps on the defensive end, but also made repeated gains on the offensive end. He made consecutive long-range shots and bit the score for the Hawks.

At 26:29, the Hawks trailed the Houston Rockets by 3 points, ending the first quarter.

Ruan Erniu only made 8 of 3 shots and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 8 points and 6 rebounds. This is actually his worst offensive efficiency in the first quarter of the finals.

Even so, the Rockets did not occupy an absolute lead.

The Eagles have too many people who can play. In addition to the starting lineup, there are Goran Dragic, Ronald Murray, Steve Novak, Zaza Pachulia, etc. on the bench Everyone can contribute their strength on the offensive end.

Although the Rockets are all soldiers, but compared with the talent of the Hawks, they are still a bit inferior. In other words, in Adelman's system, the Rockets players can only do this.

In the commentary seat of ESPN, Mark Jackson said in the tone of a winner: "Jeff, although the Rockets have lost hope of winning the championship after the end of G4, but the first quarter just passed, people can still see a little Hope. But I believe that the final winner must be the people of Atlanta."

Jeff Van Gundy nodded and said: "Houston has done it to the extreme, and Yao Ming's performance of 25+11 per game is also impeccable. I can only say that the Hawks are indeed the better team."

Mike Brin said with a smile: "You guys agree! Then let's predict, who will be the final winner tonight?"

Jeff Van Gundy said: "The Rockets still have a chance, and they will do everything they can to drag the game into G6 or even G7."

Mark Jackson said: "I think the Rockets have little chance, because no one can guess now, in the remaining three quarters, who will stand up for the Hawks to share the pressure for Kraft Nguyen and Joe Johnson."

Mark Jackson guessed right, the strength of the Eagles lies in the fact that there are too many players who can stand up and take over the game.

When Er Niu missed a long shot and Jon Jisen focused more on organizing the offense, Lunar Eclipse stood up.

Among the basketball fans of Tianchao and Dong Qiudi, the lunar eclipse has the title of "Second Hospital Shooter". Understood, it generally refers to those shooters who have a lot of ups and downs and are extremely unstable.

However, it must be admitted that where there are ups and downs, there will be ups and downs, and if there are too many downs, there will still be ups.

Ruan Erniu lost his shooting skill pack in G4, but in G4 he scored a 20+ eclipse by hitting the basket, probably stealing Erniu's skill pack by the way.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, Eclipse frequently took shots at around 16-18 feet, and hit many mid-range shots very efficiently, quickly helping the Eagles take the lead.

The Rockets used Hayes, Landry, Scola, and even Brian Cook to defend successively, but the strength of the Hawks lies in their frontcourt athletic talent, which is too abnormal.

Erniu and lunar eclipse are two things that can't stop the wind at all. The only difference is that Erniu is more stable.

"Brush!", "Brush!", "Brush!"

……

The spring of the "Second Academy Shooter" is here, and there is only one reason. "Doctor" Woodson may be crazy!
"Should I stop him?" Woodson said to Larry Drew beside him.

Larry Drew laughed: "Why stop him? J-Smoove made all the shots he deserved!"

Being able to score goals is king. Even though Eclipse's mid-range and long-range 2-point shooting percentage did not exceed 35% throughout the playoffs, this does not prevent him from bursting out tonight.

As for the Rockets, under the leadership of Yao Ming and Artest, they still set off an offensive wave of chasing points in the second half of the second quarter, but Er Niu and Jiong Jisen also took over the game during this period, and they were very stable. Hawks' lead.

At 60:55, the Eagles overtook their opponents by 5 points in the second quarter.

Lunar Eclipse made 7 of 5 shots in a single quarter, including 2 of 2 three-pointers and 3 of 2 free throws. He scored 14 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist. He is the team's biggest contributor.

Of course, his contribution is not enough for him to snatch the FMVP, because Ruan Erniu, who scored 18 points and 12 rebounds in the halftime, was too stable.
