Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 268 Solar Storm
After the Rockets defeated the Kings at their home court, they won a day's rest very comfortably, and then the Rockets ushered in the New Jersey Nets at their home court.

However, this team has Marbury? Van Horn, Kittles, Newman and other players, still can't compete with the Rockets. Some minor injuries rest today, so that Daniels will get the main position.Today's Daniels performed very well, which made Marbury, who was facing him in this game, very uncomfortable. After struggling for a long time, Marbury finally found out that the opponent in front of him was very difficult. In 97, 4 Haoxiu is really not that easy to deal with.

In fact, Van Horn is the most depressed today. They met their nemesis Garnett again today. Facing Garnett, who has hands like a gorilla, he really doesn't have many ways. When it was special, someone's turnaround jumper could only make Van Horn cry and leave.

As long as Kittles increases his physical confrontation, he basically has no chance, and the trend of the game has always been controlled by the Rockets.

When the game ended, the score of 109:92 was enough to illustrate the gap in strength between the two sides.

Marbury was defended by Daniels and scored 17 points in the game today, letting people know that the Rockets, a backup guard, has such an excellent defensive ability.

What is even more tragic is Van Horn, who scored 10 points in the game and Garnett, who scored 26 points and 14 rebounds in the game, became the most stark contrast.

And Kittles, um, who is that Kittles, did he play today?
The Rockets once again easily won the final victory of the game. After defeating the Nets, the next opponent of the Rockets is the Suns. This was originally a very ordinary regular season, but the realization of 'Penny' Hardaway became the Big Three of the Rockets The focus of observation.

The day before the game, Tiger called Dawson and Lao Tang together. Tiger looked at the two and said with a smile: "Well, tomorrow is the game against the Suns. Dawson, how is your contact with Hardaway? Any ideas?"

Dawson shrugged and said, "It's not bad. I talked with his agent, and they were noncommittal. Obviously, they are very unwilling to be a substitute for the Rockets."

Tiger frowned and said, "Really, what did 'Penny' mean? Didn't he say anything?"

Dawson nodded, and said with some hesitation: "Our team is still very attractive. It should be that they have their own salary requirements, and let him be a substitute. I guess he is more interested in coming to the Rockets as a substitute." Those who resisted, after all, a high-ranking figure, no one can bear to be a substitute."

Tiger sighed: "Yeah, 'Penny' is already like this, but it is irresponsible to 'Penny' to insist on the main force. I guess it will not be able to move in less than two years if this continues. At that time, he was really useless. We collected his injuries some time ago, and if we don’t get proper treatment and rehabilitation, our sports laboratory can’t save him.”

Lao Tang was silent on the sidelines for a while, and said: "The current Suns are also good, but now Hardaway is pushed to the shooting guard position by Kidd, this position has such a serious injury for Hardaway. The legs are too heavy for people, just like what the boss said just now, if he continues like this, he will be completely unable to play, and the loss of such an excellent player is really sad."

Tiger pondered for a while and said: "Well, if Dawson can't come forward, then I will come forward in person, and I will talk to 'Penny' in person. See if I can persuade him to come to the Rockets to play, at least I The weight of words is heavier, and the weight of words also has some weight."

Both Dawson and Lao Tang nodded helplessly, and there was nothing they could do now, so they could only let Tiger try.After several people discussed it, everyone sat and waited for the arrival of the sun.

On March 2000, 3, the game between the Rockets and the Suns officially began. The original coach of the Suns, Danny Ainge, had gone to the Celtics as the deputy general manager. After accepting the Suns, there are more wins and fewer losses, and they have been hovering in the top eight in the Western Conference.

Now the sun can also be said to be strong and strong, Clifford Robinson, Longley, Kidd.Rodney Rogers, Gugliotta, Marion, Chapman, etc., there are also a lot of people who play.

However, what caught Tiger's attention the most was 'Penny' Hardaway, who had been plagued by injuries for a long time. The leg injury has made him an ordinary player in the league. Now he can only rely on his own experience and awareness to play, and now he has gradually become mediocre.

However, in Tiger's view, Hardaway was tortured by injuries. Perhaps the Rockets and the Rockets' sports laboratory can only rejuvenate "Penny" in the entire league.

But after the start of the game, Hardaway's realization was very eye-catching, but this eye-catching is based on his stimulating the potential of his body.

Ray Allen, who was playing against Hardaway, looked at the opponent in front of him, and Ray Allen felt uncomfortable for a while. It can be said that Ray Allen's favorite player in college was this person in front of him. His injury, this player known as the most aura in the league, has gradually become mediocre.

Seeing Hardaway dragging his injured leg and running non-stop on the field, Ray Allen couldn't help but whispered next to Penny: "Anferney, you really don't want to die, if your leg One injury and your career is over."

Hardaway looked at Ray Allen in front of him in surprise, and said calmly: "Ray, you have to know that we are professional players, and we have to fight with all our strength when we play. You can't give up just because you are injured. Opportunity to play hard on the court, man you're right, if I get hurt again, my career is basically over, but the basic rules of a professional player is that I go out there and give it my all."

Ray Allen said with emotion: "Anferney, I know what you're thinking, but the life of our players is not just about basketball. You have to know this. Do you want to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair?"

Hardaway smiled lightly and said, "So what, after all, I worked hard." Before the words fell, Hardaway made a big disguise, and directly wiped Ray Allen, took the ball and went straight to the basket, and Garnett Close the door with Dayao, blocking all the breakthrough routes of 'Penny', but you are defending the main Hardaway's offense, you can't prevent his pass, Hardaway is on the way, directly throwing the basketball to the basket After the last toss, a huge black shadow grabbed the basketball directly, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands with a 'clang' sound.

Everyone fixed their eyes on the original Gugliotta, and saw this kid hanging on the basket excitedly. They didn't know how long this kid hadn't vented.

After landing, Gugliotta ran to Hardaway and said loudly: "Anferni, the pass is really beautiful." After finishing speaking, the two punched each other.

Hardaway seemed calm, just smiled and went back to defend.

Looking at Hardaway's pass from the sidelines, Lao Tang's eyes lit up at that time. From this ball, he could see that as long as Hardaway's physical problems were solved, this 'Penny' would still be the most energetic guy in the league.

Lao Tang turned around and said to Tiger: "Boss, are you sure you can get the 'penny'? From the ball just now, I can see that his golf quotient is still the best. Recovery, no one in the league can stop us."

Tiger nodded, and said agitatedly: "Yes, I can also see that, as long as Hardaway's body is healed and recovered, I believe he will still be the top figure in the league."

The two looked at each other and laughed lightly.

Afterwards, the Rockets began to organize an offense. Bodi Loga looked at Hardaway in front of him and felt a little excited. This player, who is very similar in height, weight, and technical style of play, will be his own after leaving the Rockets. player of.Thinking of this, Bodiloga was excited for a while. He wanted to weigh the quality of his successor, although Hardaway was already well-known.But those who have been injured still have a discount in their ability. Bodi Loga wants to see how capable his opponent and successor are.

Just when Hardaway looked at the European in front of him calmly, he saw that the European suddenly swiped horizontally and strode past him in a big stride. This disguise was so fast that Hardaway was caught off guard. He could only watch his opponent break through him, and the only thing he could do was to chase and defend behind his opponent. At this time, Hardaway felt sore in his heart, because he knew that it was his leg problem. When he stepped up to keep up, the serious leg injury made him hesitate and flinch.At this time, he couldn't help but think of what he said to Ray Allen just now, thinking that he was still preaching to others just now, but he turned around and was scared.Who knows what Ray Allen would think of me now, thinking of Hardaway's wry smiles.

With Bodi Loga's breakthrough, Longley and Gugliotta were ready to defend. Looking at the two big white men, Bodi Loga didn't even look at them. He made an emergency stop jumper, and the basketball went straight. Got into the basket.

Bodiloga looked at Hardaway behind him, and said calmly: "Man, your hard work, it seems that you can't guard against me now. Two years ago, you were No.1 outside the league."

Hardaway clenched his fist tightly and said in a low voice: "Okay, very good, let's see how I beat you."

Bodi Loga didn't say anything, just shrugged, turned and went back to defend.

Kidd came up from behind and whispered, "Okay, Anferney, what we have to do now is to beat them on the court, which is the biggest humiliation to them, come on man."

After finishing speaking, he patted Hardaway's buttocks. Now Hardaway is no longer the young man of the Magic. Now he is almost [-] years old and he can already control his mood.

Putting aside those selfish distractions, Hardaway devoted himself to the game wholeheartedly. Hardaway who played the game wholeheartedly was quite terrifying. He thought that his concentration also made him forget about his serious leg injury.

But in front of the Rockets' strong defense, he is no longer the explosive 'Penny'. He is now a disabled person, which is very clear.

When the second quarter ended, the Rockets led the opponent by 7 points and entered the intermission. Lao Tang returned to the locker room and followed Tiger. The two did not enter the locker room. Lao Tang asked Brooks to arrange the tactics for the second half in the locker room. , while Lao Tang and Tiger were outside the locker room, talking about their opponent today, the half-disabled Hardaway, Lao Tang whispered to Tiger: "Boss, I think your ability against Hardaway Have a general understanding, although Hardaway can only play as a substitute when he comes to the Rockets, but when he recovers, I think he will be the most troublesome person in the league, so I suggest that as long as our laboratory can really Fix this kid, then we must get him, and he will be really ruined at other clubs."

Tiger said indifferently: "Don't worry, Rudy, I think the same as you about such a player. Without players like them in the league, it will really lose a lot of color. Don't worry, the Rockets Will definitely get him."

At this time, Tiger became more determined to get Hardaway, because he really didn't want this comet-like young man to disappear so quickly.

While the two were talking in low voices outside the locker room, Skiles was also loudly arranging the tactics and details of the second half of the game to his players in the Sun's locker room, and Skiles said loudly: "Man Guys, some people said that you played well in the first half, but what I tell you is that you didn't play well enough, do you know? During the entire first half of the game, you made 6 more turnovers than the Rockets, This is the main reason for the outsiders falling behind in the first half of the game. In the second half, I want you to reduce your mistakes. Pay attention to your mistakes, and you must be careful."

Hardaway on the side was listening to the coach's tactics while thinking about the Rockets' invitation. It's not that he doesn't know his current situation, but he is very unwilling. The shark who used to be with him has already mastered the strongest player in the West. A team in China, and his injuries are much, much less than him, why can he get so many, and he can only have injuries left, why is this?Hardaway has been thinking about this question for a long time, but he has never thought of the answer to this question.

And the Rockets' invitation to him made him very excited. At least this team can bring him the NBA championship he dreamed of. This is what many players dream of. The life of a substitute, although the general manager of the Rockets Dawson told him that the Rockets' sports laboratory can make the greatest treatment for his injuries, and Dawson also guaranteed that as long as he can follow the special plan given by the Rockets, he can train And recuperate, then he can at least restore 7% of the strength of the left back, which is a great temptation for Hardaway.

And the boss of the Rockets has also promised to give him a contract that is enough for him to squander, a substitute, a main force, a present, and a future.

This made Hardaway quite difficult to make a decision. Just as he was thinking, the bell rang and he slapped himself hard on the face a few times. Hardaway cleared his mind and prepared for the second half of the game. He didn't want to be there Don't think about messy things.

Back on the court, Hardaway regained his stern demeanor. After the second half of the game, the Rockets strengthened their defense. Unexpectedly, in the second half of the game between the Rockets and the Suns, the two Suns players suddenly broke out.

The 32-year-old Chapman Sr. and the 33-year-old Crawford Robinson both started their perfect performances.

In the 7th minute of the third quarter, Chapman replaced Hardaway, and it was this substitution that started the magical scene. Chapman and Crawford, who also replaced Longley in the third quarter, started The perfect combination of two swords inside and outside the line.

How to describe it, it can only be described as a miracle, have you ever seen 3 three-pointers in a row in 5 minutes?Haven’t seen it, then you have seen it today. When Saulius almost stuck his finger in Chapman’s eye, Chapman resolutely closed his eyes and threw a three-pointer. Looking at this magical With a three-pointer, Chapman started his performance. In a full 3 minutes, Chapman scored five three-pointers, which made the Rockets fans and players present widen their eyes and couldn't believe it all. .

With the end of Chapman's performance, the Suns had overtaken the Rockets by 8 points at the end of the third quarter.

The old Chapman was so happy that he could almost see the back molars, but the more amazing scene appeared in the fourth quarter. Guess what Crawford did.

The delivery of 7 big caps in a single quarter has made all the Rockets players dare not go deep into the sun's inside to make moves. The most depressing thing is to come off the bench for Mobley. Finally got the chance to play, like to show off his breakthrough , but Crawford's sudden outburst made the Sun's inside line suddenly become extremely tough. Mobley's two layups were all slammed, and Mobley only floated on the outside to cast a cold arrow.

With the super explosion of the two Suns in the second half, the Suns reversed the Rockets before the game.When the game is over, the Rockets' players can only accept defeat at home.

102:95
The Rockets lost the game.Although the Rockets lost the game made Tiger unhappy, but after the game, Tiger's private negotiation with Hardaway was very successful.

After the two met, Hardaway didn't say any nonsense, and said very directly: "I join the Rockets, but the Rockets must ensure that my injury is cured."

Tiger was also stunned, he didn't expect such a negotiation to be so successful, Tiger thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Anferni, I can't promise to heal your injury, because of this matter, I said no Forget it, but I can guarantee that you will not be knocked down by injuries in future games, this is the biggest promise I can make."

Hardaway laughed when he heard this, and said: "Mr. Tiger, if you agree to heal my injury, you can only see the back of my head now. I like your frankness. Let's make a deal."

Immediately, Stretch out and Tiger stretched out their hands and held each other, the two laughed for a while, but Hadaway didn't know that his comet-like career in the previous life had changed at this moment.

This comet has turned into a star. Although the light is not as violent as the comet at the beginning, the long-lasting light is still dazzling.

　Keep asking, thank you from the heavens.
