The Rockets vs. Knicks had a fierce battle. In the first half, the Rockets were solid, but collapsed in the third quarter, causing the Knicks to tie the score. However, in the final moments, the Rockets relied on Holiday to make three free throws to win the game 105-103. In this victory, there are four players who have performed well and contributed a lot.
1.Dillon: In the game, Dillon showed great scoring ability. He shot 8-of-15 from the field and chipped in 23 points and five rebounds. Especially in the last few three-point shots, it maintained the advantage for the team. Dillon was outstanding in key moments and became the team's scoring core.
2.Smith: Smith has shown excellent defensive and rebounding ability. He shot 6-of-13 from the field and finished with 20 points and seven rebounds. Smith has excelled at rim protection and is one of the strongest players on the entire team. At the same time, his plus/minus is also the highest among starters, which played an important role in the team's victory.
3.Holiday : In addition to his last-minute finishes, Holiday was also outstanding defensively, with the ball and scoring. He scored 18 points in the game, showing the core strength of the bench. Holiday was an all-round player who supported the team's victory.
4.Amen: Amen scored only eight points, but he showed amazing strength on both the offensive and defensive ends. Defensively, he can lock down key players for opponents and score when it matters most. In addition, he also contributed 13 rebounds to help the team win across the board.
However, in addition to the four outstanding players, there were five players who were out of shape during the game and caused some trouble for the team.
1.Green: Green has been in a slump for two consecutive games, shooting just 4-of-15 from the field and not being able to provide enough points for the team. His biggest problem at the moment is instability, which is a problem for the Rockets.
2.Shin Kyung: Shin Kyung missed multiple finishes in the game, and these were all chance balls that could change the situation of the match. His performance led to the Knicks tying and not giving enough help in defense and rebounding. His mistakes made people feel hopeless.
3.Tate: Tate had a terrible game in the game, missing rebounds, shooting low percentages, and hitting the ball on a couple of occasions. He only shot 1-of-4 from the field, and that kind of performance clearly didn't meet the team's needs.
4.Jeff Green: Jeff Green has been up and down in this game. He only made 3 shots and didn't score. The inconsistency of his performances has caused a lot of problems for the team.
5.Williams: Williams has been very good before, but only got 1 rebound in this game, and the other stats are 0, which is not enough for the team.
From the performance of the game, we can see that the Rockets have four players who have performed well in the game, and their outstanding performances have contributed to the team's victory. However, the erratic performances of the other five players exposed the problems of the entire team. Green's inconsistency, Shin Kyung's loss of points, Tate's turnovers, Jeff Green's ups and downs, and Williams' absence are all issues that the Rockets need to address in time for the rest of their practice and games.
As an excellent team, the Rockets not only need the stable performance of the core players, but also the cooperation and tacit understanding of the whole team. Only when each player gives his or her best performance in the game can the overall strength of the team really be brought into play. Hopefully, the Rockets can learn from this victory, continue to work hard, improve their overall strength, and prepare for the next games.
All in all, the Rockets scored a crucial win against the Knicks, albeit with some twists and turns. Four fantastic players brought the team victory, but mistakes from other players in the team also exposed problems. By summing up the experience of the game, we believe that the Rockets can continue to improve themselves and achieve better results in future games.
