Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 274
When the rankings for the playoffs came out, all the teams began to study their first opponent in the playoffs.The Rockets are no exception, this old Tang is sitting in his office studying the Kings.

Brooks was sitting on the sofa not far from him. Old Tang looked at the information of the Kings in his hand, looked at Brooks not far away, smiled and said: "Scott, the playoffs are about to start, for us What do your opponents think this year?"

Brooks raised his head, shrugged indifferently and said, "That's it, anyway, we must win."

Lao Tang was startled when he heard that, and said, "You are very confident, tell me about the source of your confidence."

Brooks smiled and said, "Teacher, is this a test for you?"

"Well, I want to hear your opinion." Lao Tang nodded and continued: "It has been two years since I came to the Rockets, and now I want to see what kind of interpretation you can make about your opponent."

"Well then, teacher, if I'm wrong, please advise me." Brooks understood what Lao Tang meant today, thought for a while, and said what was in his heart: "Teacher, the current king can't be right. What kind of threat does the Rockets pose, because their lineup is not very neat, and their overall strength still has a lot of shortcomings. If you analyze it in detail, you can divide it into several points." While speaking, Brooks picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip , continued: "The current Kings, at the center position, only one Divac can be effective, and the others are basically just decorations on the court. They basically can't understand Adelman's set of 'back door' tactics. But one Divac can't support the whole game. In addition, Divac is not young. In terms of physical fitness, especially after such an intense game in the playoffs, they can't support too much time. , This is a big unfavorable factor for the king. Next up is Webber. It can be said that Webber is now the power forward with the most offensive methods in the league, but I always feel that Webber's offensive power has not yet reached its peak. There are some factors that constrain him, and Webber is not as difficult to deal with as he thinks."

After saying these words, Brooks paused, looked at Lao Tang, and Lao Tang, who was listening with relish, heard Brooks who had lost his voice, and asked a little strangely: "Scott, why don't you continue talking, what did you say? Great, I'm listening."

Listening to Lao Tang's questioning, Brooks took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and said with a smile, "Teacher, I want to have one, can I?"

Lao Tang nodded and said, "You can do whatever you want, what I want to hear now is your next point of view."

Brooks quickly lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then continued: "Then I will continue, teacher. Now the king's 'back door' tactics have quite high requirements on players, but now Adelman is playing The players here have not yet met his requirements. Now the king's organizer Williams is a very good point guard, but he is definitely not suitable for the king's current style of play. His current passing is really weird Now, even his teammates have to cheer up to notice his pass. But Adelman's backdoor tactics don't need such a player, what he needs is Kidd's steady, capable Certain offensive power, the guard who can guide the king's maximum attack power, not the guy who often wears the weird pass like Williams. First of all, I like watching Williams play very much, but as a coach , such a player is too difficult to grasp, if you are his teammate, it will be even more tiring, because you always cheer up at any time, you don't know when and how your teammate will send the ball to In your hands. This is Peja, a fellow from Deyang. This kid has a very good shot, but if you add a follower to him in the game, I think he basically won’t have much space, and like this There are still a lot of players in our team.”

Lao Tang nodded in satisfaction and said: "Yes, Scott, it seems that you have learned a lot in the Rockets during this period, and now you can see the essence of the problem. In fact, the Kings now play well. They haven't really become a strong team yet. Now they look very strong, but they still have a very shortcoming, that is, defense. After the start of the playoffs, any team that does not talk about defense will not If you go too far, you must know that the playoffs are a paradise for defenders. Essentially, the Kings already have the foundation of a strong team, but they still haven't found players that suit their team's style of play. Although there are Some but not comprehensive. However, when they find the right piece of the puzzle, this team will definitely shine by then. By the way, Scott, you expect a big score between the Rockets and the Kings How much can it be?"

"I guess it's 3:0, or 3:1, but it definitely won't be 3:2. The king doesn't have that strength yet." Brooks thought for a while and replied affirmatively.

"That's right, it's similar to my idea. If these boys really make the game 3:2, then they will have a better life." After saying this, the sneer on the corner of Lao Tang's mouth made Brooks feel sorry for him in his heart. The Rockets players pray, if you really score 3:2, then even God can't save you.

Brooks, who was secretly praying in his heart, didn't know that the current Rockets players were also praying. They prayed that the game would start as soon as possible, and they would teach the Kings a good lesson.

Because, before the game, Jason Williams said in the media: The Rockets are just a group of lucky people. They beat the Bulls when Michael had already gone downhill, and the league shrunk last season. The final victory is already blessed by God. If Ewing was not injured before the finals, the final championship may not be who it is.This year, the Rockets can never hope to win the final victory, because they met the Kings, a team that had defeated them in the regular season, we will definitely pull the Rockets down this season.

This is the most obvious provocation, and many people smell the conspiracy in it. Such arrogant remarks must be made to jump the wrath of the Rockets.

After listening to Williams' words, these Rockets players were all about to burst into anger. Even Bodi Loga, Saulius, and Dayao, who were kind-hearted players, all had gloomy faces. , Jason Williams is like a gangster, aggressively provoking the boss of a gang, and this gang is enough to make this gangster die N times.

Dayao said to Olajuwon on the sidelines of the training ground with a gloomy face: "Hakeem, you said that when we were playing against the Kings, how many points should we win against them before the Kings boys shut up."

Olajuwon said with a relatively relaxed expression: "Yao, you are still young, there are many things in this league that you can't think of, and they are constantly growing in this league. Dude, on this matter, I Already smelling the conspiracy, Williams dared to belittle the Rockets like this. It's not that he hasn't played against the Rockets, and it's not that he doesn't know the Rockets' strength, but why he said that, that is the pressure the Rockets put on them It’s too big, and they also want to create some trouble for the Rockets, you know last year’s Knicks gave a lot of teams a different kind of confidence, and they also want to create miracles for the underdog.”

Dayao nodded solemnly, and continued to ask: "Then do you think the coach will let us deal with the king properly?"

Olajuwon picked up a basketball under his feet, fiddled with it a few times and said: "It must be, you don't know, our coach's narrow-mindedness, I even doubt now, if we don't sweep the opponent 3:0, we will all die Very miserable."

After hearing these words, Dayao felt a gust of cold wind in the back of his head. Looking back coldly, his heart trembled. At some point, Lao Tang had appeared behind him and Olajuwon, narrowing his eyes. He squinted at Dayao and Olajuwon.

It turned out that Lao Tang just answered a call, and after hanging up, he walked to Dayao and Olajuwon to communicate with them. After all, as inside players, they are still the main players against a team like the Kings. main force.

However, after hearing Olajuwon say that he was narrow-minded, Lao Tang had black lines all over his head, and then stood there quietly to see what Olajuwon would say about himself.

Dayao found Lao Tang out of the corner of his eyes, and swallowed with difficulty, Olajuwon said with a trembling voice: "Hakeem, I don't agree with your statement, I don't think the coach is a narrow-minded person, I think Our coach is a kind, magnanimous, cultivated coach, and possesses extraordinary wisdom. In my opinion, they are Washington on the basketball court."

"You can put it down, what kindness, generosity, self-restraint, wisdom? It's barely, but he is far behind Washington. You don't know, our bishop company is actually a narrow-minded guy, who If you offend him, he will definitely get back at a certain opportunity, or at a certain time, regardless of whether the offender is an opponent or a player of the team, anyone who offends him, then you can only be unlucky." Ola Zhu Wang was still unscrupulously belittling Lao Tang, but at this time Dayao was about to cry, because he already felt that the coach was about to explode.

"Hakeem, what are you talking about over there? Don't you know that the playoffs are coming soon? As the captain and the oldest player, do you know how to chat? Now make 300 mid-range shots, immediately Go right away." Lao Tang's roar sounded suddenly when Olajuwon was unprepared.

Hearing Laotang's roar, Olajuwon was shocked at the time, and then immediately cast his gaze on Dayao. Seeing Dayao looking at him helplessly, Olajuwon knew that he was going to be unlucky .

Olajuwon recalled what Dayao said just now, sighed softly, and whispered to Dayao: "Dude, why don't you make your hints clearer."

Dayao said helplessly: "Hakeem, if I made it clear, I guess I will shoot with you now."

Just when Olajuwon was about to say something, Lao Tang's roar sounded again: "Hakeem, what are you still dawdling about? Do you want to double your training?"

Hearing the sound, Olajuwon shrank his neck, turned his head and smiled at Lao Tang, and hurried to shoot.

And Dayao, who saw the situation was not good, also ran to Da Ben's side to get a seat with Da Ben. At this time, Lao Tang was like a furious cougar, looking at the Rockets players with red eyes.

Seeing that things were not going well, the Rockets players hurriedly returned to the training ground to continue training. If anyone provokes Lao Tang at this time, it can only be their own heads that have ordered something.

The Rockets started training in full swing, and the Kings, who had arrived in Houston at this time, were also doing the final training before the game at the training ground.

On the sidelines, Adelman was spitting on Jason Williams, lying down and shouting: "Are you crazy? I want you to add some trouble to the Rockets and let them play in the game." Can't concentrate on the game, not for you to marry and provoke, I can assure you now, now the Rockets gang of thugs are ready to tear us apart, you know?"

Williams was very aggrieved and stood there and said to Adelman: "Coach, I said it exactly according to your idea, just to add some trouble to them? I think the current effect is also very good. I believe them. They will lose their minds against us, add our teasing, let their players lose control, and we have hope of winning the game."

Seeing himself as a kid with a low EQ, Adelman was basically speechless.

Adelman said with a headache: "Okay, boy, you will know what you have done, you can go to train for me now."

After speaking, he let Williams go to training with a wave of his hand, and Williams also went to train with his teammates with a face of reluctance, just when Adelman had a headache about how the Rockets would repair the King.

A voice behind him said, "Coach, what's wrong?"

As soon as Adelman turned his head, he saw Webber, the core of his team, fiddling with a basketball in his hands and passing it in his field of vision. There is no doubt about Webber's talent. In Adelman's view, Webber is the most perfect player combining technology and body Yes, and the unique aura of playing also makes Weber the top power forward in the league.

Looking at his lover, Adelman said helplessly: "It's not because Jason spoke in the media. I can guarantee now that the Rockets' boys have begun to sharpen their knives and are ready to slaughter us. With their Personality, they will definitely make us die very ugly."

Hearing this, Weber chuckled and said casually: "Coach, don't be so pessimistic. The game hasn't been played yet. If you lose confidence like this, can we still play? We surrendered directly. The game is There are victories and losses, we may not lose, and the Rockets may not win, basketball is round."

Weber comforted his head coach. He knew his mentor, the helplessness after meeting the Rockets. Although the Kings beat the Rockets in the regular season, the regular season is the regular season, and the playoffs are two different from the regular season. conceptual.

Listening to Webb's comforting words, Adelman knew what his lover meant, and smiled wryly: "Thank you, Chris, I know the current situation of the king. In terms of overall strength, the king is much weaker than the Rockets. At that time, I wanted that guy Jason to say something arrogant and lick the Rockets. Unexpectedly, the kid Jason directly issued a provocation. Now I can imagine the furious appearance of the Rockets players. They have There are too many players who can rely on their own strength to change the overall situation. I even know that they have prepared a broom for us to sweep 3:0. Now the strength of the Rockets is not something we can resist. Once we fall into the rhythm of the opponent, then It's normal for the Kings to lose."

Weber was silent for a while and said: "The Rockets are too powerful. If the Kings want to truly compete with the strongest teams in the West, the Kings must strengthen the team next season, otherwise we can only Wandering in the playoffs, the Kings will never be the best in the league."

"Yeah, you're right, Chris, now the Rockets are growing little by little. In fact, after several years of observation, I found that the Rockets have also grown up step by step. The level of the Rockets boss's selection It’s really very high. In the past few years of the draft, they have grown into talents every year. Look at the addition of Garnett, Ray Allen, Bodi Loga, etc. they selected, which made the Rockets very Most of the players who left the Rockets have made their own names in the league, such as Daba, Malik Rose, and Crozier, all of whom have made their own world in their respective teams. I'm so envious." Adelman, who was sitting on the chair, said with infinite emotion.

Seeing the dejected Adelman, Weber didn't know what to say for a moment, and the two stayed there in silence. In the end, Weber broke the deadlock: "Coach, I believe that under your leadership, the King It's going to be the best team in the league, and I can assure you of that."

Adelman looked at Webber appreciatively and said, "Chris, I also firmly believe in this, but now your task is to practice, practice, and practice until one day we can beat the Rockets with dignity."

After speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.Because both of them can feel each other's unyielding fighting spirit from the other's eye shadow.

The reloaded Rockets and the high-spirited Kings are preparing for the first round of the playoffs. All the players on both sides are ready for this.The war is imminent.

　It's late, I went to drink, I have a headache, I keep begging, thank you from the heavens.
