Game Summary

Rockets began with great offensive momentum while Celtics was too permissive in defense without adjusting their game and Houston clearly dominated the first period 10 points ahead on the scoreboard.

Celtics were becoming more apathetic with a very poor defensive and offensive stance as Rockets delighted with the little resistance on the court and fired from the perimeter again and again with high offensive efficiency and would take a resounding advantage over Celtics, finishing the first half 43 -65 up Houston.

Second Half

Celtics slightly improved their offensive in the middle of the 3rd period but did not improve in defense and Rockets were still punishing from the perimeter, the quarter partial was even and Rockets continued to dominate the encounter.

Celtics knew that they had to wake up and they would do it in this room triggering a vertiginous offensive and discounted the advantage to 10 points but still allowed certain shots from the perimeter of the Rockets, we would catch the time to the Celtics who continued to make certain mistakes, finishes the match 104 - 115 in victory for Rockets over Celtics.

Details and Personal Analysis

The problems that come presenting the Celtics are reiterative, we are observing a team of Boston very apathetic in defense and this is leaving them in evidence before their rivals, in addition the offensive capacity of the collective has diminished of exponential form, and they have to solve all these problems as soon as possible, they are not adjusting well the fence in the boards either, Rockets on the other hand remain faithful to their concept of shooting more shots from the perimeter than double shots and is working, because they are having high percentages and are winning their matches, in this game we clearly see Celtics who look somewhat demotivated and who have to adjust and improve their performance soon, Houston took advantage of the weakness of their rival and get a deserved victory.
