Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 264 184 [The imaginary enemies of the bayonet]

"James Harden scored a total of 20 points in the first two quarters, which seems to be a very exaggerated score, but the Bayonet side is obviously more exaggerated. He has scored 24 points in the first two quarters, which is once again confirmed. Our previous guess, as long as the bayonet thinks, the strength he possesses on the offensive end is very terrifying."

"So now the problem is, at the end of the first quarter, when the Houston Rockets led by 8 points, we all said that if they can still maintain this lead in the first two quarters, then they Tonight is a very good chance to win this game and avoid being more embarrassing by the season, but now their lead is not only gone, but the Lone Ranger has taken the lead. This does not mean that they will lose to the Lone Ranger again tonight Where is the hero?"

Kenny Smith shook his hand helplessly. The Houston Rockets really didn't expect it. Just after looking forward to it, they pulled their hips in the second quarter.

"I think the Houston Rockets have been fooled. From D'Antoni's point of view, he should not have James Harden and the Bayonet on the offensive end, because this is sacrificing the team's tactics. On the contrary, on the Lone Ranger side, The team itself is tactically arranged around the bayonet, so the Houston Rockets have obviously lost tactically," Shaquille O'Neal said.

"Who is D'Antoni, can he not understand this? But what can he say in the face of James Harden who wants to win the scoring champion?"

Charles Barkley thinks that O'Neill's question is a bit idiotic, and everyone can see that in today's Houston Rockets, the real overlord is James Harden.

"But James Harden is likely to end up in a situation where he has no man and no money. Even if he continues to play this way, can he really beat the Bayonet in the competition for the scoring champion? This is still an unknown. Secondly, I and Kobe agrees, James Harden's style of play is only suitable for the regular season, and there is no possibility of winning the championship in the playoffs."

Prior to this, Kobe Bryant said in an interview that he didn't think James Harden's style of play could go further in the playoffs.

.........

During the intermission, in the locker room of the home team, Jiang Hao picked up a towel and wiped his sweat vigorously. The harvest of going all out in the first two quarters was good, but at the same time, his physical strength was also greatly consumed.

With only a 2-point lead now, there is actually a lot of suspense about whether the next game can be won.

In his heart, no matter what, the Houston Rockets are one of the powerful stumbling blocks for him to hit the championship in the playoffs this season.

Although he doesn't think the Houston Rockets can really stop them, the Houston Rockets are a very good team after all under the premise of having James Harden and Chris Paul.

In addition to the Houston Rockets, deep in Jiang Hao's heart, as far as this season is concerned, there are still two teams in the West that can put some pressure on them to advance to the Finals.

It has always been the Golden State Warriors led by Stephen Curry. The departure of Kevin Durant has weakened the team's frontline strength to a certain extent, but with Stephen Curry, you really can't ignore it. This team, after all, got DeMarcus Cousins ​​when they lost Kevin Durant.

Once DeMarcus Cousins ​​can return to his peak ability when the playoffs start, then the Golden State Warriors will definitely be a very strong team.

In addition to the Golden State Warriors, another team that is very strong in Jiang Hao's view is the Oklahoma City Thunder.

In his view, the Thunder team with Westbrook + Paul George, once their chemical reaction is further strengthened, the hard power of their team will be greatly improved.

After all, whether it is Westbrook or Paul George, they are now excellent players in each other's positions.

As for other teams like the Portland Trail Blazers and Denver Nuggets, Jiang Hao didn't have too many worries.

It's not that he really doesn't care, it's that these two teams still have big problems.

Like the Denver Nuggets.

The combination of Jokic + Jamal Murray looks very strong, in fact they are really strong, but apart from the two of them?
In other words, the Nuggets lack the championship puzzle.

.........

"Guys, what I don't understand the most is, why did the Houston Rockets give up Carmelo Anthony?"

Jiang Hao found a topic, thus breaking the silence of the locker room.

Before the start of this season, when Cameron Anthony decided to leave the Oklahoma City Thunder to join the Houston Rockets, many people were very optimistic about the Big Three combination of James Harden + Chris Paul + Cameron Anthony.

To be honest, even Jiang Hao was very optimistic about the combination of the Big Three at the time, which is one of the reasons why he regarded the Houston Rockets as his number one rival since the beginning of this season.

But to everyone's surprise, the Houston Rockets gave up Carmelo Anthony after only playing a dozen games this season.

Although the Houston Rockets' record was indeed a bit poor at the beginning of this season, is it really all Cameron Anthony's problem?
Jiang Hao felt a little ridiculous.

He played against Cameron Anthony in the regular season last season. In his opinion, Anthony is a very good striker.

"This is Morey's masterpiece, the idiot you kicked out of the league"

Harris Barnes already had a prejudice against Morey, so now he speaks very directly.

"Houstonians felt Carmelo Anthony's arrival ruined their chemistry"

Dirk Nowitzki also chimed in.

"But I think this is just an excuse for them to explain to the outside world. The reason why Carmelo Anthony joined the Houston Rockets was to win the championship. Huge damage"

Dirk Nowitzki then gave further explanation.

This made Jiang Hao's eyes move unconsciously.

If he remembers correctly, since being cut by the Houston Rockets, until now, Cameron Anthony has not been employed again.

So what if Dallas Mavericks Cameron Anthony officially hooks up?

A bold idea immediately appeared in Jiang Hao's mind.

What will Anthony's arrival bring to the team?
Jiang Hao's head started to work quickly.

Game experience, key ball ability.

Jiang Hao's eyes lit up. In his impression, Carmelo Anthony is not only a player with a very strong key ball ability, but also has a lot of experience in the playoffs.
