The warm-up was over and the game was about to start soon. On the Rockets' side, Kevin McHale clapped his hands and called his players back together.

"Okay, boys, the game is about to start. Our goal in this game is very clear, defeat the 76ers with a big score!" Kevin McHale waved his hand slowly, and then continued: "James, this is You have to defend carefully in every game, Anxi is not an easy opponent."

James Harden nodded immediately, he was convinced.

"Patrick, lock up Michael Carter-Williams, can you do that?"

Patrick Beverly nodded: "Of course, sir."

"Okay then, come on, boys, let the 76ers understand the gap between us and them!"

…

"The game has officially started. The home game of the Philadelphia 76ers. Wachovia has been filled with crazy 76ers fans. The starting lineups of both sides have already appeared. The 76ers' starting lineup is, point guard Michael Carter-Williams, who scored Guard An Xi, small forward Evan Turner, power forward Thaddeus Young and center Cole Aldridge.”

"It is worth mentioning that this is Cole Aldridge's third start. In the first two starts, he had 5 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks in the first game, and 9 points, 17 rebounds and 2 blocks in the second game. It can be said to be a new discovery for the 76ers. The No. 11 pick in 2010 is about to have a breakout season."

Dwight Howard won the jump ball and James Harden took control of the ball downcourt.

"James Harden faced Anxi. This season, Anxi fixed his position at the second position. With Kobe Bryant seriously injured and Dwyane Wade declining, James Harden and Anxi became the league's shooting guards. The leader, James Harden, who broke out last season, was considered the number one shooting guard before the season started. However, as the season progresses, Anxi's performance is better. The battle between the two shooting guards is also a matter of this season. A highlight of the game.”

After the four major shooting guards, shooting guards have somewhat declined in the league. This season, Kobe is even missing. There is only one veteran shooting guard left, Dwyane Wade. Therefore, the battle for shooting guards will begin among young people. .

James Harden made a cross-step from the outside, dodged Anxi's defense and rushed to the three-point line without saying a word.

Inside, Cole Aldridge and Dwight Howard got entangled. Cole Aldridge stuck Dwight Howard behind him and then grabbed the rebound.

With the rebound in hand, the 76ers ran to the frontcourt with the ball.

In this game, Anxi can happily play as fast and fast as he wants, because the Rockets do not have the kind of master who controls the rhythm, and the Rockets themselves are also a fast-break team, but their speed is The fast break is more chaotic, which is completely different from the 76ers' organized offense.

The 76ers played a pick-and-cut attack in the frontcourt. Anxi and Evan Turner's cross-running quickly found an opening in the Rockets' weak defense. Anxi moved away from James Harden's defense and caught the ball and shot. , hit with a swish sound!

The game continued. McAway controlled the ball from the outside. Anxi went around behind McAway and played hand-in-hand. After receiving the ball, he used McAway's screen to get rid of Harden and rushed into the penalty area. Dwight Howard quickly To cover the defense, the Rockets' interior defense was still very strong. Anxi shook Howard with a lateral dribble, and then faked a real pass. Cole Aldridge on the inside caught the ball and dunked, also scoring 2 points.

Next, the Rockets gave the ball to Dwight Howard in the paint. As soon as Howard arrived in the Rockets, he had a lot of ball rights in singles inside. It did look much better than the Lakers, but he beat Cole Aldridge in the paint for a while. It had no effect. He turned around and made a hook.
