Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 76 Busy Tiger

After double-killing the Spurs at home and away, the Rockets faced the Los Angeles Clippers and Orlando Magic consecutively at home.

The Clippers are already a broken ship, and the Rockets simply cannot compete.

Most of the Rockets' main players only played half of the game.

The oldest old guys just played a game and then went down.

The previous few were basically substitutes among the substitutes and got playing time.

Malik Rose even played 30 minutes of the game as a substitute for Garnett, and Garnett rarely sat on the sidelines to cheer for his teammates.

In the second half of the game, only Bodi Roga and Saulius led Malik Rose, the bus and Jacque Vaughan, who was rarely included in the 12-man squad, were playing.

It is such a substitute-based lineup that made the Clippers suffer.

Under Bodi Roga's organization, the Rockets' substitutes also seized the time to express themselves.

Malik Rose scored a double-double of 17 points and 11 rebounds in limited playing time. What is even more admirable is his attitude. As long as he is playing, he will try his best to play every minute.

Malik Rose also knows that in front of a strong main power forward like Garnett, all he can do is to play every minute of the game conscientiously.

Daba's playing time is still very stable, and Daben can basically share playing time. Daba's offense is better than Daben's, and Daben's defense is better than Daba's. These two people have given Lao Tang more tactics on the bench. Opportunity.

Needless to say, Bodi Roga and Saulius are both players between the main force and the substitute.

And what Jacque Vaughn can do on the court is defense, hard-working defense, and when there is an open shot, he can shoot.

So Jacques Vaughan also cherishes every opportunity to play.

Because, he knows that there are many, many players at his level in the league. If he wants to gain a foothold in a team like the Rockets, he has to do more than others.

In this way, this game became a stage for the Rockets' substitute players to show themselves.

Bus's back-to-back, hook at the basket, and strong strength caused the Clippers' inside line to suffer a huge blow.

Malik Rose's solid inside skills also caught the eyes of many people.

Even a drinking fountain guard like Jacques Vaughan can often make open shots.

Not to mention Bodi Roga and Saulius, the cooperation between the two in a small area is even more proficient.

After the game, the Rockets defeated the Clippers 115:109.

Let everyone admire the strength of the Rockets' bench.

Immediately afterwards, the Rockets ushered in the Orlando Magic at home.

This year's magic is very unlucky, 'Penny' Hardaway only played 19 games and was reimbursed for the entire season.

This made the Magic's management want to cry without tears.

Unable to lose their own star, the Magic started the team basketball mode.

Outlaw, Armstrong, Nick Anderson, and Horace Grant are struggling to support the Magic's progress.

They can only play by ear when they are guests of the Rockets this time. The powerful Rockets will not give them many opportunities.

After the game started, it was exactly as they thought.

The Rockets' powerful offense and tough defense have left the Magic at a loss.

Olajuwon and Garnett are like two mountains inside, tightly suppressing the Magic.

As for their outside line, Horry and the old guy Drexler's offense and defense are even more sophisticated, making the Magic's outside line suffer.

In this way, the Rockets established their own advantages little by little. After the end of the first quarter, the Rockets have stretched the score to 8 points.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Bodi Roga led the substitutes on the court, another round of rapid bombing, and the Magic, who had just adapted to the rhythm of the Rockets, was lost again.

The Rockets scored 35 points in a single quarter.

61:42
The Rockets entered the second half with a 19-point lead.

After the start of the second half of the game, the trend of the first half of the game continued.

The Rockets continued their substantial lead.

At the end of the game, the Rockets defeated the Magic 112:89.

Just as the Rockets continued their 39 wins and 4 losses, the Rockets' boss was also busy.

This year's All-Star Game is about to be staged in New York, and the Rockets' strong lineup has made several people on the list.

Olajuwon, one of the most threatening centers in the league, was selected to the Western Conference Star Team. Although he has fewer votes than the second-ranked Sharks, the difference is limited.

The selection of Kevin Garnett is a matter of course. Now the ranking of the starting power forward in the Western Conference is already ahead of Malone by a lot.

It is normal for Bodi Roga to be selected. His elegant style of play and handsome appearance will never be forgotten by all women who like basketball.

There is Ray Allen, this elegant killer is showing his power.

Although he is only a substitute in the Rockets, his playing time has surpassed Drexler's starting time.

And Drexler has issued a statement, saying that no matter what the Rockets achieve this year, he will retire after the Rockets' last game.

This also shows that the Rockets' main shooting guard next year will be a young man under the age of 23. People believe that he has a bright future.

The head coach of the Rockets, Rudy Tomjanovich, was also selected as the head coach of the Western Conference All-Star team.

Tiger, who has experienced two lifetimes, was delighted by so many honors. Apart from these things, the idea of ​​building a new basketball stadium for the Rockets was like the weeds in spring that can no longer be suppressed. , After returning home, I found my own investment team to discuss this matter. After some calculations, I found that this fact is basically nothing to lose, and the investment will not exceed 3 million US dollars.

The future income is also quite considerable, and this is a very good industrial investment project for Tiger Jones who had no industry before.

After thinking about it for a while, Tiger said to his investment team: "Okay, everyone is in favor of this proposal, so I have no reason to object. Let's do it according to your opinions. We will start asking for lawyers and entrusting companies tomorrow." Come to go through various procedures and choose a location, I hope this arena can be delivered within 2 years."

The investment elites of Tiger's team nodded in agreement, and this proposal will be implemented soon.

After deciding to invest in a new arena, Tiger immediately called Dawson.

On the phone, Tiger said to Dawson: "Dawson, I have some news for you. I am planning to build a new basketball arena. The investment plan has been set. You can put forward your suggestions in the construction of the new arena."

Before the words fell, there was a sound of plates and bowls breaking from the other side of the phone, followed by Dawson's very surprised voice.

Hearing Dawson say in surprise: "Boss, what you said is true, if you don't, you are lying to me."

"I said, Dawson, how could I lie to you? Do you know that I will not lie about money." Tiger was a little depressed.

"What you said is true, boss." Dawson's voice was already a little excited.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, you can come to my house and have a look. Now this plan is on my desk." Tiger expressed dissatisfaction with Dawson's doubts about him.

"No, no, boss, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this decision is so sudden, you wait for me at home, and I'll be there right away." Before Tiger could speak, Dawson hung up the phone, regardless of others Then he went straight to Tiger's mansion.

Tiger thought about his own general manager on the phone. He was not young, but his personality was still hot-tempered, and sometimes he was more anxious than young people.

Looking at this proposal, Tiger smiled wryly for a while, and said in his heart: From now on, I will be busy with myself.

In less than 15 minutes, Dawson arrived at Tiger's house, and without being polite, Dawson picked up the plan on the table and read it carefully.

About half an hour later, Dawson raised his head and said to Tiger with surprise on his face: "Boss, you are really great, our Rockets will have the most modern home stadium, and our players will have their own special It is great to have a space to store personal items. Such a stadium will be the first step of the rocket dynasty. In addition, we can also redesign a series of things such as team logos and uniforms, and this The right to name the arena is even more valuable, it’s great, you are such a great boss, and you will be the greatest boss in the history of the Rockets.”

The more Dawson talked, the more excited he became, and now he has symptoms of epilepsy.

"Hey, hey, I said Sen, it's still about that time now, don't worry, the club will be responsible for all follow-up work after that, I'm just responsible for spending money. However, I have the right to name this arena, who Don’t give it either, I’m not short of that money.”

Tiger stopped Dawson from getting more and more excited, and finally took back the naming rights. Tiger didn't want to let others play such a fun thing.

Dawson, who found himself a little carried away, said to Tiger with some embarrassment: "Boss, I'm sorry, I'm a little excited, please forgive me."

Tiger shrugged indifferently and said: "Okay, Dawson, I know you are excited, such things are inevitable, so why not forgive or not, is it all for work, let's discuss the specifics detail."

After speaking, the two began to discuss the specific details of the development of the team and the arena.

At this time, the Rockets were on their way to the 76ers, where a figure who would later be called a legend was waiting for them.
