In the fourth quarter, the Rockets attacked, David Lee's turn and hook was disturbed by McDace, and Jordan Jr. grabbed the rebound.

The Clippers launched a counterattack, and Crawford easily swung past Bardinger and made a layup. On the Rockets, after Lowry broke through the basket, he handed the ball out of the side of the defensive player, and David Lee followed up and made a dunk.

Barnes missed a layup, Jordan Jr. flew out of the crowd and took the rebound, causing Hayes to make a defensive foul.

The Rockets quickly replaced Uncle Mu. Hayes was more than ten centimeters shorter than Jordan Jr. No matter how stable the lower set was, it could not make up for the huge height gap. In addition, Bardinger's defense was always a fatal weakness. Although Jordan Jr. lost both free throws, Crawford hit 3 points against Bardinger's defense again, and the score difference widened to 8 points, and the Rockets were on the verge of being very dangerous.

At 9:30 in the fourth quarter, after David Lee caused Jordan Jr.'s foul, the Rockets quickly replaced Guy. David Lee made another free throw. Lowry made a strong attack and found a chance to take action. Unfortunately, the ball slipped out of the basket. Guy rushed to grab the rebound and made up the ball on Jordan Jr.

Old Dunleavy ordered Ji Guochou to play first, and the giant pandas had a rest in the third quarter and were in good physical strength.

Adelman quickly replaced Scola to strengthen his attack ability in the inside.

After Ji Guochou came on the court, he began to attack at a low post. Both of the opponent's inside players were 206cm tall, which was not a threat to his hook. He could easily take action by turning around.

David Li's athletic ability is not bad, but in the face of Ji Guoqiu, the two are still at least one level different.

Ji Guochou received the ball at a low post and immediately turned around with two steps.

David Li did not pounce on the block, but Ji Guochou took action directly. The basketball drew an arc and easily fell into the basket.

The Clippers' next attack. Ji Guochou sat in the free throw line. Rockets players dared not come to assist in defense. Brother Panda's ability to support the attack makes people afraid of the attack. Unless he breaks through to the basket, no one dares to come and double-team.

David Li defended Ji Guoqiu alone, and was obviously unable to do so. He was not at a disadvantage in terms of strength, but Ji Guoqiu's footsteps made it difficult for him to make a correct judgment. After he hesitated, Panda brother took action directly based on his height advantage and excellent feel. If he pounced on him to block it, Ji Guoqiu can now use his skillful inside footsteps to create better offensives, or directly commit fouls.

This time, Ji Guoqiu turned around and broke through, using his arm span in the penalty area to shoot hard on David Li's head, and the basketball crossed the latter's block and hit the board and fell into the basket.

Ji Guoqiu scored twice in a row, but the Rockets still didn't dare to come up and double-team.

"If you don't have a double team, just keep attacking."

Ji Guochou felt very happy and dealt with inside players who were shorter than him. His lethality this season was stronger than the previous two seasons. The increase in strength allowed him to maintain the stability of shooting in confrontation. He did not need to avoid shooting often like in the previous two seasons, and his shooting percentage was naturally not as high as he did now.

David Lee finally succeeded in making Ji Guoqiu's shot in the third time, but the two had physical contact. Now it is the regular season. The referee will not deliberately favor the Clippers' opponent. The whistle sounded immediately, and Ji Guoqiu got two free throws.

The Rockets lost their free throws today. So far, the team has only scored 11 of their 20 free throws, with a shooting percentage of just over 50%, which is far from their usual 71% free throw percentage.

Ji Guochou's free throw shooting percentage last season was 91%. So far this season, he has only missed 3 free throws. Since mid-November, he has hit 28 consecutive free throws. He has made the third record of "30 consecutive free throws" after hitting again in these two free throws.

Last season, Ji Guoqiu completed a record of 46 consecutive free throws. His next goal is to make more than 50 consecutive free throws, and then chase Michael Williams to make 97 consecutive free throws. Of course, he not only wants to break the record of "continuous free throws", but the giant Pandas have ambitions, and he also wants to exceed the 95.8% free throw hit rate in a single season created by Kevin Murphy in the 1980-81 season. This is the highest free throw hit rate in a single season in NBA history.

Ji Guoqiu executed two free throws, and the first ball was a bit ominous. Although the ball was finally rolled into the basket, the ball hit hard at the back of the basket at the beginning; before the second ball, Ji Guoqiu took a deep breath, shrugged his shoulders hard, and then slapped the ball three times as usual, and sent it out. With a "swish", the basketball entered the frame.

A nice sound effect was released in the Staples stadium, and the screen immediately showed the words "30". Ji Guoqiu made both free throws and hit 30+ free throws for the third time in his career. Such free throw ability was enough to make Howard and O'Neal ashamed for several days.

Last season, Ji Guoqiu also set a record of free throws in the playoffs. NBA legend, Rick, who is famous for his accurate toilet-type free throws. Barry said in an interview: When the twin brothers walked to the free throw line, they were full of confidence, which made him suddenly see what he looked like before. "I bet that these two people definitely think they can hit all free throws," Barry commented at the time. "People may think that they will have pressure because of chasing historical records, but when people are confident, they will not feel any pressure at all."

Ji Guochou himself also said that once the best free thrower stands on the free throw line, his mind will be blank, and he only remembers the "full set of" movements he practices every day.

Their brothers' full set of movements are as follows: stretch out their arms before catching the ball, take a deep breath after catching the ball, then shoot three times in a row, and take a quick shot. Their free throwers are of very standard, beautiful after the ball is shot, and the power of the moves are also very appropriate. In this case, it is difficult not to make the free throw.

However, there is another difficulty that anyone in the league will encounter, namely the "interferencers" sitting on the back of the away basket. At home, each team has some fanatical fans who are determined to interfere with the shooting of the opponent's players. In these two seasons, the twin brothers are their targets of concentrated interference.

There is a young male fan in Portland named Rob Ames. Whenever the Trail Blazers play, he always wears a specially made, colorful "free throw interference men" T-shirt. He spends at least an hour before the game to conduct "data analysis" to summarize the opponent's free throw habits and brew "personalized" interference words, such as he yells at Richard Jefferson, "Don't say the president (there was a Jefferson president in the United States), you are not even a mayor!"

Of course, against the two brothers, many fans of the team would shout "Christen or Emma Watson" when they served. Ji Guoqiu stopped hitting 46 consecutive free throws, which was the hands of this Portland fan. Under the leadership of Robert Ames, hundreds of Portland fans shouted "Christen", which almost made the black-bellied Pandas' free throw almost, and shot an air balloon that these guys themselves didn't believe.

The game between the two teams continued. One minute later, Jordan Jr. was also fouled. This guy looked very bitter and revengeful at the free throw line. If he could make a free throw, there would be a ghost. Sure enough, Jordan Jr. missed two free throws, but Ji Guoqiu actually grabbed the rebound and scored a tip-in.

In the fourth quarter, 7 minutes and 50 seconds. The score was 90:79, Adelman sighed. Brother Panda almost defeated them alone. Why is such a player not a member of his team? Why does the Clippers have two such outstanding players?

Guy turned to Barnes and made a jump shot. Dragic and Barnes were interfered with, and the basketball went out of the basket.

The Clippers got the rebound and launched a fast break. Dragic dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and found that the Rockets players focused on Ji Guoqiu and Crawford, and immediately took the opportunity to break through.

Ji Guoqiu blocked Dragic at the free throw line, Lowry was blocked by him, Scola could not replace defense, Dragic made a basket over the sky, and the difference became 13 points.

The Staples Arena heard the shouts of "mvp" and "mvp". Lowry was disturbed on the offensive end and made a mistake in passing. Fortunately, Barnes touched it at the end, otherwise the Clippers would immediately make a counterattack, and the game would be completely over.

The two teams took the opportunity to substitution, and most of the main players returned to the court. Yao Ming and Ji Guomo returned to the court. It seems that the Rockets' hope is still not great.

Yao Ming hit a goal after coming on the court, and Ji Guochou assisted Crawford to cut a layup.

After Ji Guomeng came on the court, the Clippers became very offensive points. The Rockets lost one's defensive end and were successfully attacked by Crawford.

The Rockets did not find any opportunity on the offensive end. The two brothers' defense range was several laps larger than the Rockets, which was their biggest advantage. Especially in the stalemate stage, it was easy to rely on their large-scale defense to make their opponents miss the shooting and take the opportunity to widen the score gap.

Marbury, who was back on the court, made a breakthrough and made a move with his solid ball control skills. He turned two laps in the Clippers' defense line. The attack time was about to come. Although it was awesome without any mistakes, he could not find the pass empty space. Once the 24-second violation was not done well, he would be scolded for sticking the ball again.

Guy came to pick him up at the bottom corner on the right. Marbury was experienced and thought to himself that you wanted to pick up the pot. That would be great. He immediately passed the basketball over.

There are 2 seconds left in the offensive time, so Barnes doesn't need to consider fake moves anymore, so he immediately pounces on and blocks.

Guy faced Barnes' blockade and a big backward slid the basketball out...

"Swish!"

As mentioned earlier, Guy often shoots in a waste of iron during regular time, but he can always hit key goals at critical moments. This time it is a very critical goal, otherwise the score difference will approach 20 points. With less than seven minutes left in the game, once the score difference is widened to 20 points, the Rockets will not have many opportunities.

Ji Guomo did not provoke Guy. He planned to return a three-pointer first and then use the Viper skill. The result was too beautiful. He missed a three-pointer in a wave. After Scola grabbed the rebound, he handed the ball to Guy, who directly launched a fast break counterattack.

"You're thinking too beautifully."

Ji Guomeng cursed in his heart. The two brothers quickly returned to defense and found that Guy was planning to make a layup by himself. The three of them jumped up at the same time under the basket, and their two long yellow arms slapped Guy's right hand holding the ball and dunked.

Guy's athletic ability is indeed qualified to support him as a superstar player. In this case, it would be a big deal for ordinary people, but Guy temporarily changed his mind in the air, beat the ball backwards, and passed a rebound ball to his teammates following him.

All three rushed out of bounds, but no Rockets players kept up. Yao Ming and Scola had just passed the midfield, Marbury and Lowry had just crossed the three-point line, and Barnes was closest to the basket, so the basketball naturally passed to his hands.

Barnes' attitude is absent, and he can see his value at this time. If a role player does not have this passion, he can only be a basic salary player at most. The millions of dollars he earns are not because he lacks ability, but because he does not have enough effort.

The Clippers intercepted the ball and launched a counterattack immediately. Crawford also dribbled the ball himself, but the result was completely different. No one of the Rockets kept up with Crawford's speed in this ball, and the latter easily made a one-stop layup.

Staples Stadium is even more excited, and fans cheer!

Under the influence of the noise all over the sky, the Rockets continued to attack. Scola's forced layup was blocked by Ji Guomo. The Rockets immediately requested a timeout. Adelman replaced Lowry with Deng Tai Jones.

After the game started again, Guy made a three-pointer again, but the Rockets still couldn't stop the Clippers from scoring. Ji Guomeng made a layup through a breakthrough, and the score difference remained in double digits.

Marbury missed a three-pointer, Guy knelt down and snatched the ball back, but until the end of 24 seconds, the Rockets were unable to hit the ball.

Ji Guochou faced Yao Ming and easily defeated the little giants on the outside, and made a mid-range jump shot.

After Marbury stole Crawford, Guy hit another three-pointer at the top of the arc.

"Double-teaming, this kid can't continue to score."

Old Dunleavy called a timeout and ordered the team to double-team Rudy Guy, who scored three-pointers in a row, and let him shoot like this. The remaining six minutes are enough for the Rockets to turn the tables. The defending champion must not lead by 15 points, and was finally turned over.

Rudy Gay made a big splash in the last quarter, winning some respect from Rockets players. This guy is indeed a bit powerful.

However, after the timeout came back, the Rockets' defense was still useless. Billups broke through and scored a layup after a pick-and-roll. The whole process was like a no-man.

Adelman was so angry that his stomach hurt. The Rockets were too low to be scored easily when they needed to explode. That was a big deal.

Marbury accelerated and stopped urgently, causing Hill to foul again. After 2 free throws, the score difference was still 10 points.

Ji Guomeng missed a three-pointer, and the giant pandas scored and scored 2 points after winning two frontcourt rebounds. Yao Ming and Scola both looked a little dark. The dead pandas were so hateful that they could not play in this game.

The game soon entered the last three minutes. Old Dunleavy called a timeout, replaced Barnes with Avraro, and completely returned to the starting lineup.

The score is 102:92, and the Clippers always keep the lead of about 10 points.

Ji Guoqiu had 28 points, 17 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, Ji Guomi had 22 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks, Billups had 16 points and 6 assists, Crawford had 19 points, and Hill had 8 points.

Yao Ming scored 16 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, Marbury scored 20 points and 7 assists, Scola scored 19 points and 7 rebounds, Rudy Gay scored 20 points, David Lee scored 10 points and 6 rebounds, and Lowry scored 5 points.

After the game started again, the movements on both sides became too large, the game kept falling into a break, and the battlefield moved to the free throw line.

Such a battle is not suspense at all. In the past, the Rockets might be able to fight the Clippers, but today their poor free throw shooting percentage is naturally a life-threatening death against the Panda brother who is planning to sprint towards the free throw record.

When Yao Ming, Marbury and Rudy Guy made two free throws, the Rockets, who were trapped in the free throw curse, had no chance to turn the tables.
Chapter completed!
