Vol 3 Chapter 45: Target 3 pairs

"The 76ers have continuously fought back with fast breaks, and now they are 12 points ahead of the Rockets, with the last two minutes left in the second quarter. Le Wen-" Mike Flatero summed up the current situation on the court.

Doug Collins continued: "Almost everyone was saying before the game that the 76ers are finally going to end their winning streak and end their dark horse journey, but no one thought that 5 wins and 1 loss, with the league's first The Houston Rockets of the first point guard and the league's first center will be completely suppressed by the 76ers, especially when Anxi is on the court, the Rockets have almost no resistance.

Although the Rockets have just fallen behind by 12 points and the halftime has not passed, 12 points are completely recoverable.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Rockets have been suppressed by the 76ers in all directions, or by an Anxi in all directions.

Kevin McHale called a timeout, and after the timeout, he replaced James Harden.

Harden re-appeared. Kevin McHale felt that the Rockets’ problem was offensive. In addition to replacing Harden, Kevin McHale also made other adjustments, such as feeding the insider Howard more.

After the timeout, the Rockets’ first goal was Dwight Howard’s singles with the ball inside. His opponent was Spencer Hawes. Howard sat down and pushed Hawes away, took a turn, and gently put the basketball in. To the basket.

Howard succeeded in singles, narrowing the 2 points gap for the Rockets.

In the 76ers' offense, Anxi held the ball, and Chandler Parsons was still defending Anxi, who clung to Anxi firmly.

Chandler Parsons posted very deadly. Anxi held the ball for a while, and gradually turned to face Parsons sideways, then suddenly dashed towards Chandler Parsons’ right side, Qian Upon seeing this, Dele Parsons quickly took a step back.

And at the moment he retreated, An Xi quickly pulled back, leaning on Parsons, turning around, and then a cross step. Parsons had completely lost the center of gravity on the defensive end. After An Xi crossed steps, one accelerated. Dropped Chandler Parsons!

But the Rockets' defense was not over yet. After Anxi passed Parsons, the Rockets' backup power forward Donatas Motai Junas made up. Parsons, who was behind Anxi, adjusted and quickly wrapped up. The Rockets Dwight Howard's inside line is eyeing.

Therefore, after being double-teamed, Anxi chose to pass the ball again.

"Anxi's pass, Thaddeus Young's mid-range shot, scored!"

Anxi’s eighth assist, the Rockets’ blockade of Anxi made Anxi continue to refresh his assist data.

At the end of the second quarter, Anxi grabbed a rebound and passed the ball again in the fast break, but Sean Livingston's mid-range shot failed. The halftime whistle sounded and the 76ers led the Rockets by 12 points at halftime.

16 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals. This is the data from Anxi halftime. During the intermission, teammates also teased Anxi and encouraged several main players to help Anxi make a triple-double. Anxi just smiled, and didn't care.

However, at the beginning of the second half, Anxi started to rebound and assist with a resolute look.

With the first goal of the third quarter, the Rockets continued to let Howard play singles inside, but this time Howard's opponent became Cole Aldridge, an opponent who was at least evenly matched in size and strength.

Then, Howard turned to the basket and was interrupted by Cole Aldridge, but didn't make it! The basketball fell from the hoop, an Anxi jumped out of thin air and grabbed the rebound.

The triumphant little eyes seemed to say: rebounds 6/!

Howard missed a single game, the 76ers quickly attacked, transferred the ball several times from the outside, and found an opportunity. Evan Turner's long-range two-pointer made a precise two-pointer, but the ball had nothing to do with Anxi, because after the basketball passed Anxi's hands, It took two laps before it was handed over to Evan Turner, and finally hit the score 2 points.

A 2-pointer hit, the 76ers held a 14-point lead, and the game continued.

The Rockets fell into a continuous scoring drought, James Harden had to stand up, force a breakthrough in Anxi, Porci got a foul, walked to the free throw line, and hit two free throws against the boos of Wachovia Arena.

Anxi was a little depressed, and the best way to vent his depression was to return Harden on the offensive end, so Anxi took the basketball from the backcourt, took control of the frontcourt, and shot Harden short.

Harden in Anxi's singles is actually not that difficult. He only used a probing step and a cross step, and he passed Harden directly, then rushed into the three-point line, took a jumper, and the basketball went into the basket with a scream. basket.

The difficulty is not great, so Anxi still feels uncomfortable. It just so happens that Harden still wants to continue playing Anxi singles. That's the opportunity.

“James Harden’s outside singles, continuous crotch dribble, see how Anxi responds.” When James Harden dribbles his crotch, it means he is about to break through, so Mike Flatero’s implication is, How will Anxi respond to James Harden's obvious intention to commit a foul.

Anxi also quickly gave the answer. Harden made another crotch dribble, then accelerated, rushed into the three-point line against Anxi's defense, and then hugged the ball with both hands, and rushed in like a dynamite bag. At this time, as long as Harden raises his hand, the referee's whistle will sound immediately.

Just when everyone closed their eyes and didn't want to see An Xi back two fouls in a row, An Xi slammed his hand and cut towards the basketball.

With a crisp sound, the basketball rushed into contact with the floor.

Mike Flatero yelled: "Anxi's cut off the basketball in James Harden's hands!"

"Quick break...!"

"Anxi's speed is very fast, the 76ers are 2 to 1 in the frontcourt! The Rockets only have Jeremy Lin back to the defense!"

Jeremy Lin quickly showed his brushed defensive side ~www.novelmtl.com~ while hesitating to take a few steps towards Anxi, then seeing Anxi about to pass, he stepped towards McAway on the other side. Step, and then beautifully passed by Anxi and McAway...

Anxi didn't come by himself either. He chose to pass the ball. McAway caught the ball and dunked the basket. The 76ers scored 2 more points.

And this pass of Anxi became the absolute proof that he wanted to make a triple-double, because Anxi could obviously come by himself.

McAway scored, Anxi also got his ninth assist of the game, the double-double is not far away.

Then, Harden scored the ball from the outside to Jeremy Lin, who broke through with the ball, attracted the defense and then scored the ball. Chandler Parsons took a three-pointer and hit the rebound with a bang.

The basketball bounced out quickly, Anxi grabbed the rebound, 7/!

The Rockets still didn't score, and then, the 76ers made another wave of fast offense. McAway scored a three-pointer from the outside. Kevin McHale called out a timeout again because the point difference had reached 19 points, which was one point short. It's almost 20. (To be continued.)
