In yesterday’s game, the Rockets lost 100-104 to the Thunder in the first round of Game 6, failed to advance to the second round and will face a tiebreaker.
At the crucial moment, Chris Paul played bravely, while the Rockets’ Russell Westbrook was a slow performer and made many key mistakes. Even the handling of the final goal became the main reason for the defeat. Last year, the two owners traded, this year’s playoff contest, obviously left Rockets management faceless.
However, it is intriguing that the Rockets are interviewed after the game. Reporters at the scene said that Rockets head coach Mike D’Antoni said the last goal was designed by him to get James Harden to shoot, but Westbrook passed the ball directly out of bounds and the tactics weren’t enough. .
But Harden said the tactics were designed to get Westbrook to attack the basket. Rockets team reporter Salman Ali said: “This is really weird.”
Westbrook had 7 turnovers. After the game, he said he should take the blame. Harden also took the blame.
Speaking of turnovers, Harden said, “This is a good question. We’ve made too many mistakes, too many careless mistakes, including myself, for a playoff playoff game, too many mistakes.”
As for how he and Russell Westbrook distributed the ball at the end of the game, Harden said: “The feeling of watching the game, we are all selfless players, we all want to achieve the same goal.”
Westbrook’s 7 errors in the game, Harden said: “This is part of the game. I also had 5 errors, so we have better protection of the ball. We both made 12 errors. If we cut half, then we have a better chance of win, we have to do better and we will. “
At the last minute, Westbrook made a serious mistake. Harden said: “The ball was for Westbrook to attack the basket. He hit the basket. He made a decision. He felt like he (Robert Covington) was in the gap.”
Harden said he and Westbrook “have to improve the efficiency of the ball.” In this game, Harden committed 5 turnovers and Westbrook committed 7 errors. If the two of you can do half of your turnovers, the mobile phone will naturally be much better.
