『Chapter error, click here to report』

Known as the only man in the league who can change James alone, he led the team to the finals and the Lakers battle, won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year 3 times in 2009-2011, was elected NBA rebounding champion 5 times, 2009-2010 consecutive years Won the NBA blocked shots twice, and the NBA All-Star vote champion twice...

Howard's past is indeed very brilliant. Two or three years ago, if people said Howard was a real superstar, no one had any opinion. However, in the history of NBA, there are indeed not many superstars like him who have fallen into disarray at the time of the game.

Howard may still be alive in his past glory, unable to accept the fact that it is difficult for him to return to the top. He thought he was still the omnipotent insider Beast, and everyone avoided him for three points. He thought he was still the supreme superstar, and the entire team's operations must revolve around him.

However, in fact, this time is completely different from what he imagined. Now that Howard is mentioned, people's first reaction is: "He was really great." Yes, it was.

Now that the Houston Rockets are mentioned, the first thing people think of is Harden, not the Superman who once soared over Orlando.

Now when it comes to the league's first center, people are likely to say Marc Gasol, but few people's first reaction will be Howard.

Whether Howard wants to admit it or not, his career is indeed going downhill. It's like now, he was smashed into a sieve by a guard who had only been in the league for four years, and he was forced to take a break.

When Harden was not led by Howard alone, the Rockets trailed the Mavericks by 13 points. If it weren’t for the Rockets’ old Rockets who came on as a substitute for Hardy to play bravely and scored two unreasonable three-pointers on Yiyang, the Rockets might not even be able to maintain a 13-point difference.

McHale did not publicly accuse Howard, but everyone knew it was just for the sake of face. The Rockets are a newly formed group, and "Magic" is also a brand new duo. They also need time to run in and prepare. He believes Howard will not continue to sink like this, but as far as his performance is concerned, McHale will undoubtedly give Howard a failing score.

"Dwight is in deep trouble with fouls in this game. The second quarter has just begun, and he has his third foul today. I have to say that coach Carlisle has a lot of courage, and he actually dared to let the players go. Attacking the inside line guarded by Howard. But the facts have proved that it has also done a very beautiful job."

"It is precisely because Carlisle has a defender like this, so he dares to fight like this." Mike Brin smiled. Carlisle's courage was also given by Yiyang. If you change Yiyang to another point guard, see if Carlisle dares to hit Howard's basket? When you have an MVP, many tactics, you take the initiative.

At the end of the timeout, Howard was forced on the bench by McHale. James Harden is back on the battlefield, but under the defense of Tony Allen, Harden wants to recover the 13-point difference, which is really not easy.

The highly anticipated Chandler Parsons seems to have lost his soul today, and opening his hand from beyond the three-point line is an iron strike. Jeremy Lin was very abrupt today, and on several offensives he played Yiyang without a temper. But Jeremy Lin is not a super scorer, and Lin Madness will only appear once. If the Rockets rely on Jeremy Lin's scoring to beat the Mavericks, it means that they have been driven into ruin.

Until the end of the game, the Rockets hadn't filled the hole Howard dug. 58 to 50, the point difference barely returned to single digits. The fans at the Toyota Center are not as excited as they were at the beginning. Today, they might lose!

In the second half of the game, Israeli Cassby's three-pointer gave the Rockets hope. This guy's sudden hot feeling made him hit 3 consecutive goals from beyond the three-point line! A wave of offense directly allowed the Rockets to complete the go-ahead!

But no matter how good Cassby is, he is just a role player. When the point difference was overtaken, the Mavericks immediately became alert. The MVP of Yiyang also opened the scoring mode. The scoring mode of MVP and role players is not a concept at all.

After Cassby scored three goals in a row, Carlisle asked Iguodala to strengthen his defense against the Israelis. This simple change made Cassby completely dumb.

And what about Yiyang? If even Howard can't stop this guy, do you expect anyone in the Rockets team to stop him?

With the active cooperation of Iguodala, Tony Allen, Gobert and Nowitzki, Yiyang can always easily gain space. As long as there is room, Yiyang can score.

Halfway through the third quarter, the score difference looked like it was being stretched to double digits. McHale waved his hand, double-teamed!

The double-team defense is more like a gamble. If you use it on Kobe, then you have to bet on whether Kobe can score under the defense of two people. If you use it on James, you have to bet on whether James will pass the ball under the defense of two people. But the double-teaming tactic used on Yiyang is not gambling, but chronic suicide.

Double-teaming means that others will definitely get space. And as long as there is a little space, Yiyang can deliver the ball accurately and quickly.

As a result, Iguodala became the biggest beneficiary of McHale's double-teaming tactics. As long as Parsons comes up, Yiyang will definitely increase the number of assists. In fact, Yiyang's ability to complete assists does not depend on whether his passing will make mistakes, but whether Iguodala's open shots will make mistakes.

The double-teaming tactic was executed for two minutes, and McHale found that the point difference had become even greater. Originally, the Rockets are now very passive, and Howard's irrational foul on Iguodala undoubtedly made the situation worse.

"For the fourth foul, Dwight Howard is already on the verge of being sent off! To be honest, Dwight didn't need to foul the ball just now. Iguodala is already up, and it is difficult for you to defend him again. All I can say is that Dwight was so uncool in this game."

Howard has brought a negative effect to the Rockets on the court, and McHale had to replace it again. But without Howard, the Rockets' defense would collapse faster.

In this way, the Rockets entered a vicious circle. Howard is on the court and will be targeted. Howard won't play, their three-second zone is hard to protect themselves. Only halfway through the fourth quarter, Carlisle replaced all five main players. The reason is simple, the game has been decided.

"It's over. Although there are 5 minutes left in the game, everything is over. The 20-point difference is crushed by the Rockets. James Harden's 31% shooting percentage will not suddenly pick up. As for Dwight...hey, that guy won’t cause trouble to the Rockets. Coach McHale is going to thank goodness.” Mike Brin rubbed his sleepy eyes. He thought this game would be an issue. The field is intense. Unexpectedly, the Mavericks easily won another big win.

In the last five minutes of the game, there were not many fans at the Toyota Center. Yao Ming sat in the second row of the stands with embarrassment on his face. The Rockets treat this game as a big game, but for the Dallas Mavericks, this is just a ball destined to win.

Howard is still alive in his past achievements, while Yiyang is already moving towards a higher glory.

After the game, the Rockets all hurriedly "escaped" the court. He was abused by the Mavericks for 18 points at home, and no one can hold back his face. Only Jeremy Lin stayed. After a brief hug with Yiyang, he was the last one to walk into the player channel with a wry smile.

Howard was wildly sought after by reporters along the way. He scored only 13 points on 4 of 10 shots. Howard was so miserably guarded by a 27th pick, of course he received much attention.

"Dwight, didn't you threaten to tear down the Mavericks defense? How do you evaluate your performance today?"

"Is it the right choice for the Dallas Mavericks to draft Rudy Gobert this summer instead of signing you?"

"How do you rate Rudy's defense, or how do you rate your own offense?"

The reporters' perseverance in asking questions ~www.novelmtl.com~ made Howard's unnamed fire even more prosperous. Sometimes, a person's changes are indispensable to the outside world. Howard is becoming more and more gloomy now, and reporters have to bear certain responsibilities.

He hates this league, he hates the reporters, he hates his opponents. Basketball, for Howard, it seems that it can no longer bring pure happiness.

Howard, with a towel on his head, ignored anyone and squeezed into the locker room. He knew that he had completely lost this battle.

On the court, Yiyang is still being interviewed by reporters. With 29 points, 13 assists, 4 rebounds and 3 steals, Yiyang's data still maintains the MVP level. The Rockets' defense was really dismantled under Yiyang's breakthrough and passing.

Yiyang was in a good mood today, but it was not because he humiliated Howard with practical actions, but because the team successfully won the game. It started two consecutive victories, which is good news for the team. Their lineup is not bad at all compared to those with big players.

"As for Dwight Howard's remarks before the game and his performance in the game, what kind of evaluation would you give him?" But for reporters, they are more concerned about the personal grievances between Yiyang and Howard.

"Mr. Dwight should learn the benefits of shutting up, or provoking some less powerful opponents to provoke." Yiyang did not save Howard the slightest face, because Yiyang knew that if Howard won the game instead, he would definitely Nor would you be polite to yourself.

It’s just that I’ve worked hard for you this time, Mr. Superman. Yiyang couldn't wait to see those articles questioning Howard in the major media the next day.

With a smile, Yiyang Chong reporter's camera waved. The feeling of defeating a powerful enemy is still so wonderful.
