Curry won t be able to fight the Rockets in life and death, Halliburton blitzed into Cleveland?
7:53pm, 11 May 2025Basketball
Pacers 1-0, the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference in the regular season, and they won the lead away.
Of course, the Knight lacks Garland, but the lower one is the lower one after all.
Plus today, the Cavaliers lost seven games at home in the regular season + playoffs this season: three games to the Pacers.
Garland is not here, Mitchell scored a Cavaliers team-high 33 points, and New Year's defensive player Mobley scored 20 points and 10 rebounds - but not enough to win.
Since December last year, the Pacers' defense has soared, with several points:
- After Nemhard's comeback, he has been self-adhesive and close to his body.
—Siakam's defense replacement and ball replacement, wide area coverage.
—Matherin enthusiastically defends against the big.
- Turner's weak side wheel protection basket.
The Pacers are very skilled in peel switching and next switching. They are not top-notch in the basket protection and often get dunks and layups from opponents, but they are limited to three-pointers and cutting and passing, which is a good player.
Garland was injured today, and the Cavaliers were short of people to dominate the ball. Jerome was deterred from the Pacers' defense and could only rely on Mitchell.
Mitchell scored 33 points with 30 shots, which is not bad. After all, the Cavaliers often use Nemhard to stick to him - before Lillard was injured in the first round, he only made 3 of 13 shots when he picked Nemhard - but he couldn't take care of the rhythm of the team.
Pacers tried their best to replace the anti-slow Knight round, while Mitchell wanted to play fast. When the Cavaliers are in contact with each other, Garland will handle it; when the quick shot score is needed, Mitchell will take over. Today, the Knights are missing Garland and cannot be transferred.
And acceleration against bombing is the pace that the Pacers like: they have Halliburton.
After a look, the Pacers made 19 of 36 three-pointers, which is accurate!
The Pacers really can't block the Cavaliers at the basket, but the Pacers' rhythm: they switched a lot of defense and took away three-pointers and pressed the attack and broke through. I made a three-pointer and you shot the ball, we ran against each other. The Cavaliers scored 70-38 in the interior, but the Pacers had 19 three-pointers.
The Cavaliers could not even shoot the ball in some rounds in the first quarter; in the last quarter, they could not even shoot the ball in the sideline. Coach Atkinson is certainly amazing, but Coach Carlisle is one of the most charming masters who have been in the world for decades.
The final half of the victory and loss:
Halliburton shot long time, and the Pacers took the lead.
Halliburton gave Neha a long shot, opening 5 points.
Jerome broke into the crowd and lost the ball, Neha made another three-pointer.
The funniest moment:
Mitchell named Halliburton, but Halliburton blocked Mitchell, and Siakam made a layup.
Jerome named Halliburton and was blocked by Halliburton.
Struth took a weak move, and was blocked by Halliburton. He named Garet Allen and threw it with a low hand, opening 10 points.
- Halliburton, should it be the Pacers' flaw, and finally the defense wins?
In other words, Halliburton's strength is not strong and his center of gravity is not low, and he is a little obsessed with cleanliness. But in the past two years, he has also had advantages in his defensive end.
Halliburton blocked 16 three-pointers this season, fifth in the league. 91 passes were cut off, the third in the league - Jokic was second.
Passing masters are all good at cutting the ball in seconds and covering three points?
At the end of today, I took off Jerome and blocked Struss, and blocked Mitchell from a small angle: my teammate's position helped him limit the opponent's range to the smallest, and in the end, it was very dependent on his intelligence and timing.
Turner is the former captive king. Mobley is the New Year's defensive player. But today the whole audience blocked the most? Organizing guard Halliburton. The final three defenses and one attack locks the game.
Knight's perspective, I must think this script is messy - but this Lightning Pacers are best at winning messy games.
Warriors eliminated the Rockets 4-3.
Hilder's career battle. Amen Thompson's struggle.
Jimmy Butler in the playoffs. Curry's fourth quarter.
A seventh game full of surprises is very suitable for the end of this ups and downs series.
For example, the Warriors included three long shots in the opening 13 points, and the Rockets had 8 baskets in 10 points: they could guess. You shoot three points, I compete for size.
However, Zhu Meng scored 8 points in the 4th minute of the game and two three-pointers. I guessed that the Warriors would use three-pointers to the Rockets' basket, but Zhu Meng's main shot is a three-pointer?
Chasing Dreams: Are you surprised or not?
Bojie hit Shen Jing in the face, and Hilde counterattacked with a one-stop layup, Zhu Meng made a strong layup.
This is the little surprise in the Warriors in the first quarter, and then in the second quarter, the surprise doubled, the most glorious moment in Hilder's career.
Hilder started as the surprise in the third game, and worked together with Post, and had great experience in guarding Jaylen Green.
Starting from the second quarter today, Hilde lost a long shot. In the next round, Jimmy continued to feed Hield; after he cut inside and dunk, he fed Hield - he really trusted Hield.
In the second half of the second quarter, Jimmy rushed into the basket and looked for Hield on the left wing: 22 points.
- Hilder's highest single-game playoffs in his career was 20 points, and 22 points in the half today.
- Jimmy scored 3 assists in half, all of which were given to Hilder.
Curry restrained, Zhu Meng, Boger and Hilde attacked? Didn't expect that he missed Hilde several times today. By the way, when the Rockets were in joint defense, Dillon was unexpectedly embarrassed: he seemed more suitable for one-on-one. However, Hilde slipped without hesitation.
But the Rockets did not sink.
At the last moment of the second quarter, both sides went back and forth: Shin Kyung's hook shot was 8 points short of the gap, and Hilde scored 14 points in two three-pointers.
Adams made up the dunk and made a technical foul on his dream chase. Jimmy broke through and fed Hield long shot.
Amen made up the dunk, Curry immediately responded to the first three-pointer in the game.
Amen once again broke into the layup like a doctoral student, but Boger chased after him, Ginobili blocked Van Vreet in a style, maintaining a 12-point lead in the first half.
Adams, Amen and Van Vreet struggled hard, and the Warriors corresponded one by one. Only in this process did Amen Thompson's fighting spirit rise.
At the beginning of the second half, Jimmy scored a three-pointer. Shin Kyung hit Jimmy and turned over and crossed the bridge; Bojie counterattacked and dunked.
Seeing that the Rockets are in a desperate situation, Amen Thompson refuses.
Amen glared and broke into Jimmy, and found Shin Kyung who cut inside at the bottom line to break the Warriors' joint defense; he quickly pushed back and dunked, clicked on the frontcourt rebound, and stopped the Warriors.
After Dillon and Shin Jing made two consecutive offensive fouls, Bojie faced Shen Jing's mid-range shot. Seeing that the Warriors were about to win back, Amen assisted Shin Jing and counterattacked Jige. He chased him to 5 points and stopped the Warriors again.
The Rockets scored 23 points in the third quarter, Amen created 17 points, and brought the Rockets' counterattack in the Jedi.
Recovery. Chase yourself. Tujimmy. The pass inside Shen Jing defeated the Warriors' joint defense. Dunk. He hooked up the frontcourt rebound and stopped the Warriors twice. In the seventh scene, some of the young people were nervous and some disappeared, and Amen struggled with glaring eyes.
I said before that Amen will not be injured in the future, then the lower limit of Spreville upper limit of Dr. J, is this moment.
The young man is full of energy, but Kumingga and Ethan are counterexamples in the third section.
The Warriors used Kuminga in the first half, and the defensive end was still okay. Kuminga + Luni continued to fill in the time in the third quarter, but Luni was blocked, and Amen counterattacked and chased him to 4 points; he went against Boger, Ethan vs. Curry immediately crossed Ethan to make a layup.
Ethan then missed the free throw and made mistakes. The scene was not good, but someone supported him: Kumingga first shot and lost three-pointers at the open position, and was blocked by Ethan face to face, and was removed from the board by Adams. Amen fed Jabbarri long shot, and chased him to 3 points.
It can be said that the seventh game is, young people are inevitably like this - but Amen is also young!
In this way, Amen's pursuit + the Warriors' complete work, 63 to 60 is the most dangerous moment in the Warriors' game.
So Cole finally got out of order: Kumingga and Looney went down.
Jimmy Butler, playoff reading comprehension king.
Jimmy's long shot at the bottom corner opened by 6 points, and then used the gravity of Ku, and the Necrocutter opened by 8 points. The crisis passed again.
Off topic: Curry was attacked before, and Zhu Meng was often responsible for the transfer, but recently, more and more of this life was handed over to Bojie; Curry was involved in the ball, and Zhu Meng was often responsible for the dispatch, and Jimmy was more and more of this life.
Amen buzzer-beater and missed the three-pointer, with speed, stability, jumping height, and Rockets No. 1 jersey, it was very McGrady, but unfortunately he didn't have such a good basket.
Curry in Section 4: Time is up.
The Rockets used single defense, and Curry beat Jabarri alone and scored 10 points; facing Amen, Curry jumped sideways and shot widened 13 points, and ceased the Rockets. Amen cramps.
Uduka immediately stopped, then used Dillon's weak side to break through the Warriors' attack, and then attacked Curry. Cole also returned to a timeout.
So:
Curry used an inward cut layup to deal with the ball and then used the Rockets' attack to attack. Curry → Chase Dreams → Hilde shot a long shot, opening 10 points.
Zhongmeng and Hilde attacked Van Vritte, rotating and interfering with Shinkin; Curry broke through and opened 12 points.
After Dillon used his weak side attack to seize the Warriors' zoom, the Warriors changed their defenses infinitely.
Jimmy broke through the penalty area and made a layup and opened 10 points, then copied the ball and fed it to Hilde, and then the ball dealer moment: Hilde ran an empty basket by himself, Jimmy jogged to block Van Vlitter, tricked Van Vlitter into a foul, Jimmy made up another mid-range shot and opened 14 points.
Correspondingly, the Rockets are:
Jabbarri can't beat Curry by his back; Shin Kyung concedes free throws and fails to punish Hield by his back; Jaylen Green scores three times.
So the Rockets collapsed.
Jimmy always teased Hilde before. Hilder said Jimmy was the connector. Jimmy: Did he spell this word right?
Hilde: He taught me how to interpret the offense, but his advice was terrible.
Jimmy triple-double. Hilde: Fake!
Hild became the surprise in the third game. Jimmy: Our No. 7 has a little defensive mentality and has also hit some open baskets.
Today, the most glorious moment in Hilde's life was 22 points in the first half and 33 points in the whole game.
Jimmy Butler gave 5 of 7 assists to Hilder.
——There are two more, which gave the dream of chasing in the third quarter, indirectly triggering the single defense of Oduka in the fourth quarter?
Hilder scored 22 points in the first half, Jimmy pushed; the Rockets caught up to 3 points in the third quarter, Jimmy scored one three-pointer and two assists to open the score; Curry in the first half of the fourth quarter, Jimmy in the second half.
Playoff version Jimmy Butler's ball dealer.
said that the young people lost but gained some experience, but today's battle, and even the past three battles, the Rockets should see the future clearly.
Shin Kyung fought hard until he was exhausted and missed the free throw, but he was the mainstay of the Rockets in this series. If there is a giant tower carrying meat - like Adams - he can play excellent.
Jabbarri's three-pointer was no longer accurate today, and Ethan also lost the free throw, but it was not worse than the opponent's Kumingga. Defensively, they all worked hard.
Jaylen Green scored 38 points in the last 10 games except for 25 shots against the Warriors in the second game. In the other 9 games, I calculated it by hand: 24 of 85 shots and 72 points.
Of course, young people are nervous when they play in the playoffs for the first time, and they don’t know what they should do if they play in the seventh game for the first time.
In the past three games, the Rockets were 1-3 behind. Amen averaged 21 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. Today, he ran to the cramps after Curry. The Rockets' final pursuit was completed in the third quarter. Like a wolf or a tiger in adversity.
are all young people, why is the attitude gap so big...
Today, Coach Cole's military use has gains and losses. At the beginning of the game, Boj and Hild raided. Shin Kyung and Jabbarri got off the court at the same time and Looney went on the court to block Adams for a few minutes, comparable to Kakuda's fight against the wild side. The arrangement after the timeout in the third quarter, the continuous timeout in the fourth quarter adjusted the defense, and the offense to deal with the Rockets' clamping attacks were all in place.
But in the end, it was the execution of the Dream-Zhunting Defensive end and Jimmy and Curry offensive end.
Curry's highest 10 rebounds in the game - does the Rockets have a size advantage? He came to make up for it.
The highest 7 assists in the game: Jimmy was chasing Hilde and Zhu Menghe, and Curry was blooming everywhere, not to mention the ball that Boger transferred out when he was attacked.
2 steals, 2 blocks, and some strange rounds: such as defending Jabbarri, such as after losing a long shot in the fourth quarter, Curry retreated to defend and stuck Van Vreet's pursuit. The game was sent away at 14 points in the fourth quarter.
The Warriors eliminated the Rockets in 2019, that is, the game after Durant was injured: Curry made 0 points in 5 shots in the first half and 33 points in the second half.
Today Curry kept ecstatic in the first half and finally scored a three-pointer. However, the last quarter of the game was 19 points and 14 points in the fourth quarter ended.
Adapt, integrate, wait for the rhythm to take over, and exert influence.
Harden, Leonard, LeBron, Durant and others are gone.
The old opponent of the previous generation who walked to the second round: Westbrook yesterday, and Curry today.
