  • Houston Rockets mengandalkan pemain yang berpostur tak lebih dari 200 cm saat mengalahkan Utah Jazz, Senin (27/1/2020).
  • Shooting guard Eric Gordon jadi bintang kemenangan Houston Rockets dengan sumbangan 50 poin.
  • Startegi small ball pelatih Houston Rockets Mike D’Antoni berhasil menyulitkan Utah Jazz.

SKOR.id – Tahun ini inkonsistensi menjadi masalah utama Houston Rockets. Sepanjang musim reguler NBA 2019/2020, mereka mencatatkan 29 kemenangan dan menelan 17 kekalahan.

Namun semua masalah itu seperti telah menjadi masa lalu pada Senin (27/1/2020). Rockets, memberikan permainan sempurna menghadapi tuan rumah Utah Jazz.

Dalam pertandingan di Vivint Smart Home Arena, shooting guard Houston Rockets Eric Gordon mencetak 50 poin untuk membawat timnya menang, 126-117.

Hebatnya lagi, kemenangan tersebut diraih Rockets tanpa tiga bintang mereka: James Harden (guard), Russell Westbrook (guard), dan Clint Capela (center).

Tak pelak Eric Gordon menuai pujian dan itu tak hanya datang dari rekan setim dan pelatih Houston Rockets Mike D’Antoni, tetapi juga kubu Utah Jazz.

“Eric Gordon adalah salah satu pencetak poin terbaik di liga (NBA). Dia tahu timnya butuh banyak poin melawan kami dan itu membuatnya tampil lebih agresif,” kata pelatih Jazz Quin Synder.

Namun tentu performa brilian Gordon juga ditunjang dengan strategi cerdas yang diterapkan Mike D’Antoni. Ia tahu Rockets butuh solusi tanpa Harden, Westbrook, dan Capela.

D’Antoni menggunakan taktik small ball. Sang pelatih memainkan starter dengan rata-rata tinggi 198 cm. Ini jadi yang terendah diturunkan Houston Rockets.

Mike D’Antoni mengandalkan kecepatan dan pergerakan Gordon (191 cm), Austin Rivers (191 cm), PJ Tucker (198 cm), Danuel House (198 cm), dan Ben McLemore (191 cm).

Strategi small ball Rockets sukse menyulitkan Utah Jazz sepanjang laga. Serangan yang dilancarkan pasukan D’Antoni dari pinggir sering memaksa mereka melakukan pelanggaran.

Alhasil, Houston Rockets mendapatkan 35 poin dari 49 kali percobaan lemparan bebas (free throw). “Ini memang tujuan kami, bermain cepat untuk mencari ruang,” kata Austin Rivers.

“Itu membuat lawan tidak nyaman dan mereka (Utah Jazz) benar-benar kesulitan mengatasinya,” point guard Rockets itu menambahkan.

Selanjutnya, Houston Rockets akan menyambangi Moda Center untuk menghadapi tuan rumah Portland Trail Blazers, Rabu (29/1/2020).

Russell Westbrook kemungkinan bisa kembali memperkuat tim. Namun James Harden dipastikan absen karena masih cedera paha.

Namun Mike D’Antoni belum tahu apakah Clint Capela bisa bermain atau tidak. Center 25 tahun itu mengalami problem tumit.  

“Semua tergantung bagaimana kondisinya. (Capela) Mungkin bisa main, mungkin tidak,” ujar pelatih Rockets tersebut.
