165 [This is it?]
The camera was given to James Harden, who had no expression on his face at the moment. Perhaps for him, all that was bitter in his heart.
brush!
Jiang Hao made 21!
The game continues. As a superstar, James Harden has strong willpower and self-confidence. It is impossible for Jiang Hao to really lose his mentality because of a blow-off and defense.
In the next game, he continued to try to complete singles on the offensive end, and for Jiang Hao, it was impossible for him to be able to succeed in every defense.
But in general, Jiang Hao was still at the upper hand in the offensive and defensive battle clock between Jiang Hao and James Harden.
Chris Paul is perhaps the strongest representative of the traditional classical point guard in this league.
He had a scoundrel with Jiang Hao in the game last season, and his offensive method of unlimited singles is becoming increasingly untolerant.
So, after the second quarter began, he made a decision without authorization and no longer handed over the ball to James Harden, but instead proposed that Utah dominate the ball.
On the bench of the Houston Rockets, when Chris Paul made such a request, James Harden looked very bad, but he was a very tolerant guy. In addition, he had a certain admiration for Chris Paul, so he didn't say anything at that time.
But in fact, he was really angry at this moment.
What to do?
I, James Harden, was suppressed by a sophomore rookie on both sides of the offense and defense. What does your Chris Paul stand up and complain about my playing style mean?
James Harden took a deep breath and then got on the bench. He wanted to see what kind of performance Chris Paul could do, because he remembered that Chris Paul did not take much advantage in the matchup with the bayonet last season.
Jiang Hao is the only big star of the Mavericks. Although it remains to be discussed whether he is a superstar now, he is the leader of the Mavericks in Dallas, so this is absolutely impossible to be wrong.
And this is also the embarrassing part of the Mavericks.
When the Houston Rockets put James Harden on the bench to rest, Jiang Hao had to continue playing when the two teams were still biting the score at the beginning of the second quarter.
In the second quarter, when Jiang Hao saw that Chris Paul was the leader of the Rockets, he smiled unconsciously.
Because he hates this guy, in Jiang Hao's opinion, Chris Paul is a guy with too many small moves in playing basketball, and his style of playing is not clean at all. This is why he had a conflict with him last season.
At the beginning of the game, the Houston Rockets were the first to attack.
After Chris Paul pushed the ball into the frontcourt, Dwight Powell was against him. Powell is a guy with good offense and defense. His biggest shortcoming is his unstable form.
This is even reflected in the defensive end.
At this moment, at the beginning of the game, when he faced Chris Paul, he quickly lost a foul.
Fortunately, it's just an outbound ball.
In the Houston Rockets, if James Harden likes to cooperate with Capela on the inside and outside, then Chris Paul likes to cooperate with Tucker on screen pick-and-roll.
For Chris Paul, although he is a small man, he is never afraid of confrontation. Although he is no longer young now, he still likes to break through.
For example, this offense, after using the cover of Tucker's free throw line, he passed Harris Barnes in one step, and then he seemed extremely confident when facing Dirk Nowitzki.
Because now Dirk Nowitzki is no longer the King of Novo who can easily make various defensive moves. In Chris Paul's view, he has the opportunity to face Dirk Nowitzki's defense and send the ball into the basket.
The next second, when he was about to arrive at the basket, after facing Dirk Nowitzki in front of him, Chris Paul chose a European layup.
I have to admit that although I am no longer young, Chris Paul was still very sharp when he made a breakthrough in Europe.
So, he really quickly got Dirknowski down. Seeing the basketball was about to get into the basket the next second, Chris Paul was even about to turn around and make a celebration move.
However, at this moment, an incredible scene appeared.
A figure suddenly popped up from the right side of Dirknowski, and quickly slapped the basketball down with a cold and ruthless slap.
"Wow, the cover from the bayonet"
Sabo Quinn, the host of the local sports channel in Dallas, yelled in exaggeration because the bayonet was a sudden cold arrow block, even though he was fully focused on the game, he did not notice it at the first time.
After slapping the basketball down with a slap, Decknowski finally kept up with the pace this time and successfully won the battle with Capela with his height and position.
Immediately, he threw the basketball to Jiang Hao, and the Dallas Mavericks' counterattack came.
Jiang Hao's counterattack was very fast with the ball, and the Rockets players could not catch up with him at all.
so.
They could only watch Jiang Hao successfully hit the shot.
On the Houston Rockets' bench, James Harden unconsciously curled his lips, that's it?
He didn't have much sympathy for Chris Paul's failed breakthrough.
On the court, Chris Paul was still calm at this moment. He then assisted Tucker to make a three-pointer, which was more or less a regaining the field.
But the Mavericks cannot remain indifferent.
Dwight Powell received Dirknowski's high-level pass from the left corner and hit his second three-pointer in the game.
For Rick Carlisle, he wanted to see this and was the most confident.
Because with the unexpected and steady performance of rookie Luka Doncic on the court, he is already very relieved about the team's offense and support this season.
Because both Luka Doncic and Jiang Hao have good organizational skills, and in the inside, Dirknowski's high-level support ability has even been the Mavericks' killer weapon.
It is said that Dirknowski is old, but if there is an old family, it may be the reason. With Dirknowski here, the Mavericks will have more choices in the inside.
After Dwight Powell hit a three-pointer, the first climax point of the game came.
Because immediately under the leadership of the bayonet, the Mavericks suddenly made a 152 offensive climax on the offensive end.
What makes many people feel incredible is that the 15 points scored by this offensive climax were actually completed by 5 three-pointers.
Among them, Jiang Hao scored 2 three-pointers alone. In other words, without Jiang Hao's outstanding performance, the Mavericks would not have suddenly taken off.
It was originally a balanced power, but in a flash, it was pulled apart by more than 10 minutes. D'Antoni immediately requested a pause.
Chapter completed!
