6686 Sports October 25th In the NBA regular season, the Rockets lost to the Pistons 111-115 at home and suffered two consecutive losses.
In this game, Durant made his home debut for the Rockets. He made 9 of 18 shots and 16 of 18 free throws. He scored 37 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 interceptions and 1 block.
In the post-game interview, the reporter asked: "You scored 37 points in the home team's home opener today. How does it feel to perform so well in front of Houston fans for the first time?"
Durant said: "I missed 9 goals. I think I could have really made 18 of 18 shots, you know what I mean? I had some good shooting opportunities, and some balls just spun in the hoop and came out again." I found my shot points for those 9 shots - maybe I was a little anxious sometimes, and sometimes I didn't complete the shots. I really think I can make those 9 goals again. Overall, the fans at the home team are very engaged. I am very happy that the first game can be played smoothly. Now that the season has just begun, we will continue to improve."
The reporter asked: "The last two games have been narrowly missed. Do you feel that you are close to winning?" blockquote>Durant said: "Obviously, a bad start is difficult, and losing streaks are uncomfortable, but it will only make us stronger. The coaching staff is very angry now, and the players are also very unhappy. Everyone expects better results at the beginning of the season. But because of everyone's unwillingness, I really like the energy I feel when I walk into the arena."
The reporter asked: "Recently In the two games, how did you use your experience to guide the opponent's guard?" Durant said: "I don't worry too much about the person guarding me. Usually when the opponent plays very physically, the guard knows that there are at least two or three people behind me to guard against my breakthrough or counterattack. I feel that I am often in a one-on-one situation, actually two against one, so I don't worry too much about the first guard, but focus on the overall defense of the team."
