The Rockets were really good. They just let Thompson throw 12 three-point goals and then let Lillard take 71 points.
9 losing streak is actually nothing, the rocket had 13 losing streak before. For a team that aims at wenbanyama instead of the playoffs, the long losing streak is understandable. However, in the defeat of bracelet, the opponents kept leaving amazing marks of cutting points. Even if they turned over in the future, they would be mentioned constantly.
Remember Kobe’s 81 points. In fact, with this historical score, Toronto Raptors are always mentioned. Thompson’s 12 points are two short of his own record, and Lillard’s 13 points are only one short. If Lillard didn’t end in advance more than 40 seconds before the end, it would be hard to say what number would be left.
It doesn’t matter how long the consecutive defeat IS. In fact, it’s nothing to leave a mark. The real problem is that if the rocket is so rotten, it will surely grab Wen banyama?
In the process of Lillard scoring 71 points, we can see to what extent the “non-resistance” of the rockets has reached.
First of all, Lillard scored 41 points in the first half, but the Rockets let him score 30 points in the second half. Generally speaking, you have to do something when you find that your opponent shows signs of a riot, but rockets coach Silas did not take much measures because he gave Lillard 21 points in the fourth quarter.
Secondly, of the 71 points gained by Lillard, only 14 points came from free throws. Moreover, on this day, he made 14 free throws, including technical foul free throws, the proportion of Lillard’s score is not high. In Mitchell’s 71 points, he scored 20 points and shot 25 times; In Booker’s 70 points, he scored 24 points and shot 26 times, and the Suns also lost the ball. Almost 30 years ago, David Robinson also scored 71 points and scored 18 out of 25 free throws. Less free throws, indicating that Silas did not arrange rockets to improve the defensive strength.
Lillard scored more than half of the points from the three-point goal, with 13 and 39 points accounting for 55% of the total 71 points in 22. He was originally a scorer at the historical level and just won the three-point championship. After scoring eight three points in the first half, Silas should have a premonition that if he didn’t do something, lillard had a chance to break the record of 14 three points on their heads.
When Silas had about three or four minutes left in the third quarter, he began to signal a bit of clamping, but the clamping force was not strong. Lillard looked at it and first took the ball out and then pulled it along the way, the ball returned to the hand. At this time, the rocket’s attack was gone again. In this small arrangement, Jean Lillard only scored 9 points in the third quarter, but in the fourth quarter, the rocket allowed him to throw it as he wanted, so he entered another 4 points, 21 points per section.
Most of the time, Lillard faced the one-on-one defense of no strength. He had voted for Tetai Washington, Nicks, and several on the head of Schengen and Jamari Smith, of course, they were also easily passed.
At the time of the tide of newcomers at the historical level, it is understandable that the team will fight for it, but it will also look like it.
Now the Rockets, Spurs and the piston keep a position between each other with tacit understanding. It has become an established fact that the three teams each Rob Wen banyama with a probability of 14%. The 9-game losing streak of the rocket is nothing, and Spurs is now 16-game losing streak.
However, the rocket must not naively think that the probability of itself and Spurs is really the same. The current head coach of the Spurs is still Popovich baby. He will retire only after leaving a seed for Spurs, just like he got Duncan. I never believed in the use of table tennis lottery. Popovich baby was a Hall of Fame coach who won five championships and had never broken up before this year, I don’t know whether Xiao Hua will “reward” him a future Duncan.
Even so, during the 16-game losing streak, Spurs played two plus hours, including two plus hours for the piston. If the piston loses three or four games, it may win one game. The last time the Rockets played Plus was at the beginning of December, when they won two plus matches with 76 people. During that time, the Rockets often won, and there was Deng GE on the opposite side of the ball.
The problem with rockets is that they really don’t care about anything when they are rotten, and let young people die by themselves. In a game that is not played for winning, the young people’s mind has not been exercised, while the Rockets’s winning culture for many years has been eroded.
NBA30 teams, with an average age of 26 years old, the largest average age of Bucks team, 29.47 years old, the smallest average age of Thunder, 23.14 years old, the Rockets ranked second, 23.58 years old.
However, this is the calculation at the beginning of the season. After trading, the Rockets replaced Gordon and are probably the youngest team now: there are 15 players on the current list, including the two-way contract, there were 5 newcomers, 5 second grade, 2 third grade and 1 fourth grade. Only Damayan and Kaminski were the oldest, but they only played the eighth year.
ESPN reporter winhorst said in an interview program recently: “I think Houston is a dangerous place for anyone because the team has lost control. They have completely destroyed Silas and destroyed him. Silas was a good man, but he could do nothing about the rebellion. No matter what the Rockets do now, they are a mess, so if I am Victor (Wen Banya Ma), I would like to stay away from Houston a little.”
If each team is treated as a boys’ dormitory, the Rockets will be too messy to get in. The stinky socks that haven’t been washed for a long time are thrown everywhere. The bed is a dirty quilt that never folds, covering dead soldiers of the table, with melon seed skin on the ground.
How can such an environment welcome Wen banyama?
In history, there have been cases in which the rookie refused to go to a certain team, such as the Grizzlies that Francis publicly refused to go to Vancouver. There are countless examples of private Rejection. During the trial training in the draft training camp, some teams will be notified not to inspect or choose me.
At the level of Wen Banya Ma, of course, he will have requirements for his first professional team. No superstar just set foot on the NBA stage, thinking about job-hopping, the first goal of life, of course, one person and one city.
Therefore, if the rocket wants to get Wen Banya Ma or Scott Henderson, it is better to clean the dormitory and clean the house.
After all, this is the place where the slogan “Don’t underestimate the heart of a championship” was born.
