Standing pretty old

Chapter 735 Tie Zha is sure to kill, the eagle steps on Xiaoqiang
The current performance of the Rockets is not satisfactory. They were the champions of the Western Conference last season, but the current record of the Rockets can only be ranked around 6-8 in the Western Conference, which is far from ensuring their place in the playoffs.

For a team that just reached the Finals last season, the Rockets' current performance is undoubtedly disappointing.

Fortunately, China fans will not focus all their attention on this.

The record of the Eagles is enough to look forward to, and as long as Dayao can continue to stay healthy, it will be quite satisfying to contribute enough exciting Chinese Derby with Er Niu.

When it comes to the Celestial Derby, the imperial court will naturally not miss it, and this game will be explained by the double-level combination of Zhang Lili and Sun Zhenping, who are well-known to audience friends.

And what about the parties involved in the Celestial Derby?

Before the start of the game, Dayao specially called Er Niu and Sun Yue to have dinner together, but the Eagles had to catch the bus tonight to San Antonio, which also belongs to Texas, so they finally declined Dayao's invitation.

Speaking of which, the biggest achievement of the Rockets this season should be the growth of Aaron Brooks. Although Yao is still the first offensive option in the Rockets, Little Black Bean has indeed grown up.

As of this game, Brooks averaged 16.3 points, 6.3 assists and 2.6 rebounds per game.

Compared with last season, Black Bean has become a well-deserved Rockets giant, and has also become the Rockets' second scoring point on the offensive end.

Many experts believe that this season's Aaron Brooks is very likely to become a strong contender for MIB (Most Improved Player).

There are gains and losses.

The biggest loss for the Rockets this season is the loss of their most important piece of the Western Conference championship last season-Ron Artest.

Facts have proved that although Artest is a lunatic, he will intermittently lose control of his emotions.

He fought James Posey in front of the then US President Zipperton at the players union;

He clashed with Pat Riley directly in the game;

He also worked out the infamous Palace of Auburn Hills affair.

But in any case, Artest is still an excellent championship puzzle.

In contrast, in the summer of 09, Trevor Ariza, who was signed by the Rockets for 5 years and 3395 million yuan, did not reach the level of Artest on both offense and defense.

The Rockets have high hopes for Ariza.

As soon as McGrady gave up his No. 1 jersey, the Rockets uniform team gave Ariza the No. [-] jersey, which shows Houston's expectations for the UCLA veteran.

Regrettably, half a season has passed, and Ariza has not shown the demeanor of the former Rockets No. [-]. The Chinese fans gave him an appropriate nickname "Tieza"!
The 39.4% field goal percentage is Ariza's career low.

Half a season has passed, and the Rockets have proved one thing with their own experience. Let Tiezha attack with the ball, and Texas Xiaoqiang will inevitably be trampled to death.

Of course, Tiezha's nirvana is not what Tianchao fans imagined. At the end of the first quarter tonight, Ariza showed off his most ecstasy technique.

The situation at the time was like this. The Rockets trailed the Hawks by 27 points at 25:2 in the first quarter, but in the final attack, the Houstonians still held the ball.

After the pick-and-roll in the frontcourt, Brooks and Landry rushed into the penalty area. Facing the double-teaming of Erniu and Birdman, they had to pass the ball to Ariza on the flank.

At the moment Tiezha received the ball, time was running out, so the Rockets' current No. 1 raised his hand and it was a long shot.

"brush!"

The Nets splashed waves, and the Rockets fans at the scene immediately stood up and cheered, celebrating, and the DJ was also shouting Ariza's name loudly.

And the Tianchao audience in front of the TV also heard Teacher Zhang Lili's loud cheers: "The goal is scored! Ariza, he made a three-pointer, and the Rockets temporarily overtook the score. It's too powerful. If this is in the fourth quarter Even more powerful!"

Indeed, even if it wasn't an all-court decisive kill, this single quarter decisive kill is enough to make people rejoice...

Teacher Sun Zhenping on the side also followed up and said: "It is said that the performance of the Eagles this season is unprecedented. Looking at it now, the strength of the Rockets is not bad at all. The NBA is so exciting, and there will never be a weak team in the true sense."

and many more!

Why are the Eagles players so calm, and what's with Tie Zha's constipated expression?

The big screen at the scene quickly gave the answer-this is an exquisite hollow outside the basket, that is to say, Ariza shook everyone in the audience, and he shot a very deceptive air ball.

In other words, this trick is about the legendary flower in the mirror and the moon in the water, right?Ariza this is the completion of the initial solution?
27:25, this is the last score data of the first quarter of the two sides.

Now it's embarrassing!
Needless to say, the frustration of the fans at the scene was mixed with incredible expressions, and the momentary silence of the DJ is completely understandable. The most interesting thing is the rescue words of Zhang Lili and Sun Zhenping, the commentators of the imperial court:

"Ah, that's not right! The ball didn't go in. The basketball only touched the net. If Kobe shot the ball, he might have gone in!"

Weiping Bryant clearly lived up to his last name.

"Oh, I'm sorry, fans in front of the TV, the goal was missed just now, so the Hawks still lead the Rockets by 2 points, so the Hawks are indeed better than the Rockets." Director Sun's words are of course correct, but, it seems ,seem……

correct!Who said just now that there are no underdogs in the NBA?

In the second quarter of the game, Ruan Erniu and Yao Ming, who played very mediocre in the first quarter, exploded with passion. Both hit consecutive shots on the offensive end, and the game fell into a long stalemate.

But at the end of the first half, Dragic, who had gradually found his shooting touch after half a season of training, suddenly broke out.

The claw machine hit three consecutive three-pointers on the offensive end, instantly stretching the score of the two teams to double digits.

In the third quarter, Dayao and Scola broke out at the same time, scoring consecutive points for the Rockets to catch up.

But at the most tense moment, Ruan Erniu and Jiong Jisen were still relentless, and they used precise shots to help the visiting team stabilize the lead again.

In the final quarter of the game, Carl Landry and Brooks took the lead and scored consecutive points to close the score again. Texas Xiaoqiang showed his most tenacious side.

At the critical moment, veteran Mike Bibby stepped forward.

Even if his role in the team is reduced this season, Bibby can still contribute to the team in a limited time.

Ruan Erniu was not soft at the last moment, and his 18-foot mid-range shot was stable to a desperate level. He made 8 of 7 shots in a single quarter, bringing the Atlanta Hawks their 42nd victory of the season and their 15th consecutive victory.

To put it a bit more vividly, the Hawks finally turned into a peerless player in the last quarter, the Pomegranate sister admired by thousands of people, stomping Dezhou Xiaoqiang to the ground with one kick.

As a result, Tianchao Huomi suddenly became the incarnation of wisdom and beauty, hero and chivalry, beating his chest and feet with 12 points of sadness: "Rocket! Rocket? What's wrong with you, Rocket?..."

Well, none of the above matters.

The point is that the Rockets lost another game, which may have a considerable impact on their ability to advance to the playoffs this season in the future.

The competition in the West is too fierce. Even if they get 50 wins, they can't guarantee that the team can make the playoffs. This is the reality of the league.

Two days later, the Hawks visited San Antonio, ushering in their second opponent, the Spurs.

Before the game, Popovich said in a very high-profile way: "I think the Hawks are the best team in the league, and I really want to learn something from Woodson."

After hearing the news, Mike Woodson looked at the local reporter in Texas who was in charge of conveying the news with an idiot's eyes, as if to say: "When can the words of the Spurs be believed?"
