Rockets defeated the Warriors, Rockets three high-defensive joint efforts, why can Neptune and Van Jordan change the situation

The Rockets defeated the Warriors 115:107 away, and won the Warriors' home game Chase Center for the first time in the series, rewriting the big score of the series to 3:3, and the series will officially enter the tiebreak battle.

In this game, the biggest contributor to the Rockets' winning goal is Van Vleet and Aquaman Adams.

With Jaylen Green's continued to be bad, Van Vleet carried the Rockets' number one offensive arrow on the offensive end. You should know that G1-G3 Van Vleet's extremely inefficient and poor performance has knocked out the price. From G4-G6 to Van Jordan's state during the Raptors, Van Vleet's performance is a timely help in the face of Jaylen Green's continued sluggishness. For the Rockets, it is priceless.

The Rockets' biggest hero on the offensive end is Van Vleet, and the biggest hero on the defensive end is Neptune Adams.

For this reason, Adams got 31 minutes in this game. Uduka played double towers or three-high lineups for a long time, and the effect on the court was extremely outstanding. When Adams was on the court, he could provide rebound protection and the huge threat of protecting the rim. Because Aquaman played joint defense for a long time, he focused on taking care of Curry, and adopted a certain four-unit defensive strategy in stages, betting on the three-point shooting ability of other players of the Warriors. If the Rockets cannot be shot to death, it will eventually retaliate against the Warriors.

Kor's change of team, replaced Payton Jr. and removed Bojmsky. Kohl's intention was very obvious. In the first four games of the series, Shin Kyung faced Moody and Bojmsky one after another. Curry + MoodyPojmsky's pick-and-roll effects were not very good. These two people's pick-and-roll ability was not strong. When Payton and Curry made pick-and-roll multiple times, they easily broke the Rockets' defense. Kohl tasted the sweetness and thought of the strategy of sanctioning Shin Kyung, thus continuing such a game strategy.

However, Cole's expectations obviously did not achieve the effect of the game, because the shooting stability of Payton, Zhu Meng Green, and Jimmy Butler on the court was extremely poor, and none of the three players did not have a stable three-point shooting threat, which prompted the Warriors' offensive space to become very bad, prompting the Rockets to become better arranged in defensive formations, and resolutely not giving Curry a chance to make three-pointers. Except for Curry and Hilder, the other three players encouraged the opponent to take action, strictly control the opponent to cut into the inside, making the opponent uncomfortable to play.

Uduka's defensive strategy is gambling. Except for Curry and Hilde, the other three-point shots of the Warriors' starting lineup are not fatal. Uduka believes that these people's three-point shots will not kill him, so he firmly plays the three-point shots of the three high-level defense lineup for a long time.

The Rockets' advantage is the protection of the penalty area and rebounding. If the Warriors want to break the Rockets' joint defense, the key point is that Warriors players other than Curry can continue to shoot three-pointers and sanction the Rockets' defensive strategy.

The Warriors' dual cores can face high-intensity defense and hand over good data. Curry scored 29 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. Butler can see 27 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, and made 12 of 14 free throws, which is full of lethality.

However, the performance of other Warriors players cannot be seen. Except for Curry, other Warriors players made only 6 of 28 three-pointers. Such shooting efficiency is far from being effective in playing the Rockets' joint defense.

The Rockets were behind 1:3 and won two games in a row. The Rockets players' spirit was significantly better than the Warriors. Rockets head coach Uduka is also constantly improving and changing. From the G4 Warriors' score of Adams to the G6 Warriors' score of Adams but not Adams, Uduka is also improving to a certain extent.

Rockets have found a way to deal with the Warriors, which is to fill up Adams' playing time and use the double tower or three-high lineup to balance the Warriors' five-square-square lineup. Whether it is Post, Dream Chasing Green, or Rooney, the Warriors' center cannot match the Rockets in terms of tonnage, height and vitality.

Of course, this is still the case when Jaylen Green's series has 6 games and 5 games. If Jaylen Green can be one game in the last game, then the Rockets' bargaining chips will be higher.

For the Warriors, the three-point shooting percentage of the role players other than Curry will be the key to the Rockets' joint lineup. This round of the series has entered the tiebreak battle. In addition to the ultimate game between offense and defense, it has also risen to the end of the match between the big lineup and the small lineup.
