29 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists! Van Jordan descends to earth, Shin Kyung Jokic possesses, Adams defeats Cole

NBA playoffs continue, and the Houston Rockets and Golden State Warriors usher in the 6th round! In the game, the Rockets scored a perfect start of 11-5 as the away game, and the Warriors blossomed inside and outside to take the lead. Then, the two teams fell into a tug-of-war and led alternately. In the second quarter, the Rockets strengthened their inside attacks to widen the score difference to double digits. Curry and Butler teamed up to score and scored to stop the bleeding, and the Rockets led by 5 points in the first half. After the change of sides, the Rockets firmly controlled the situation on the field, and the Warriors used the Shark-cutting tactic to stubbornly chase points but were not effective. In the final quarter, the Rockets suddenly broke out, widening the gap to 17 points in one fell swoop. The Warriors once again used the shark-cutting tactic but it was difficult to save the defeat. In the end, the Rockets narrowly defeated the Warriors 115-107.

The Warriors lost their first match point away with a 3-1 lead. Returning to the home ending series is imminent. Cole adjusted the starting lineup again and used Curry + Butler + Green + Payton Jr. + Hilder to face the strong opponent. Faced with the fierce Rockets, the Warriors' lineup was at a disadvantage in the inside competition, losing 4 rebounds 42-46, and losing 10 points in the inside scored 32-42. At the same time, the Rockets' small lineup failed to disrupt the Rockets' solid defense line outside the three-point line. The Warriors made only 15 of 49 shots outside the three-point line, with a shooting percentage of only 30.6%. In contrast, the Rockets scored 12 three-pointers with a shooting percentage of 40%. More importantly, the Warriors made too many mistakes, up to 16 times (the Rockets only 11 times), and the Rockets scored 22-12 points in the game. The Rockets' defense has always been online. When they play speed and passion on the offensive end, the old Warriors can only drink hatred at home!

Rockets regained a match point again, and Van Jordan descended to earth like a god, continuing his hot touch. Van Jordan played for 39 minutes, made 7 of 13 shots (6 of 9 three-pointers), 9 of 9 free throws, scoring 29 points + 8 rebounds + 8 assists, with a positive and negative value of up to +12 on the court. Especially in the last quarter, Van Jordan scored three points in a row to determine the universe, and a 3+1 kill was killed! According to statistics, Van Jordan scored 18 three-pointers in the last three playoffs, setting a new record for players in the Rockets' history in three consecutive three-pointers. Meanwhile, Van Jordan's record against Curry in the playoffs was 7 wins and 5 losses, with the best record among all defenders (at least 10 games)!

Van Jordan fought from beginning to end, while Shin Kyung and Adams supported the basic inside team. Shin Kyung played for 39 minutes, made 7 of 13 shots (6 of 9 three-pointers), 9 of 9 free throws, scoring 29 points + 8 rebounds + 8 assists, with a positive and negative value of up to +12 on the court. Shin Jing's offensive efficiency is not high, but he seems to be Jokic possessed, with both rebounding and tandem skills, reading and punishing the Warriors' defense very well. After 6 games in the series, Shin Kyung scored a total of 125 points + 69 rebounds + 32 assists. He tied with Jokic (6 games) and tied for the center player with the fastest score of at least 125 points + 50 rebounds + 25 assists in the NBA playoff history.

Adams is another pole in the Rockets' inside line. He played for 31 minutes on the bench, made 4 of 4 shots, 9 of 16 free throws, scored 17 points + 5 rebounds + 1 steal + 3 blocks, and the plus and minus value on the court is as high as +15. Even though Cole still used the shark-cutting tactics without bottom line like before, Uduka still firmly placed Adams on the court, focusing on his rebounds and frame protection. Adams did not disappoint his mission and used his free throw shooting percentage of more than 50% to resolve the shark-cutting tactics. Adams defeated Cole in a strong battle. Cole admitted after the game: Adams is really great tonight, and the shark-cutting tactics did not work! In this round of series, when Adams was present, the Rockets had a net loss of 53 points; when Adams left the court, the Rockets had a net loss of 39 points; when Adams and Shin Kyung were present at the same time, the Rockets had a net efficiency value of 32.2 and an offensive rebounding rate of 48.2%. The Rockets' double towers are comparable to the Warriors' nightmare. If Cole cannot deal with the moves in G7, the Warriors will be in danger. Fans, what do you think about this?
