Basketball: Start with the nerve knife

Chapter 97 "Abolishing Yao" Tactic ([-]th update)
After signing the contract, we still have to wait for a few days. Some preparations for the production team have not yet been completed. After Scarlett confirmed that she does not need to come to the production team tomorrow, she asked her agent to make a ticket for her tomorrow night between the Lakers and the Rockets. home tickets.

This game is a big hit, "live across the United States" treatment, so tickets have long been sold out.

However, "money can make Mo Tuui ghosts", the agent still bought a side ticket from other people at a high price, and spent 1 dollars.It’s not too expensive. A set of regular season season tickets for the Lakers is about 2 dollars, which is converted into 41 home games, and each ticket is about 5 U.S. dollars. The sideline tickets for such a popular game cost one or two thousand dollars. Now They suddenly want to buy one day in advance, and it is normal for the price to increase by five or six times.

This is Los Angeles, the lights are not good, and the money is not fake.

Scarlett didn't respond. The contract she just signed was enough to buy hundreds of such tickets.

At 6:[-] in the afternoon, she appeared on the sidelines on time.

When the cameras on the sidelines started to run, her pretty face also appeared on the big screen for the first time.

There was a huge booing sound at the scene.

They had seen all of Li Wan's scandals, and now that the rumored girlfriend appeared in the audience, how could they not be excited.

Scarlett had no expression on her face. She played with her mobile phone for a while, and then looked towards the field. She was not affected by the booing at all.But the first time Li Wan entered the arena, she put away her phone and stared at Li Wan with piercing eyes.

Under the spotlight, he entered the arena with a simple wave of his hand, which caused a tsunami in the audience.

"Neur Knife Kid" seems to be the new favorite in Los Angeles now...

"Man, Scarlett came to the game, you know?"

As soon as he stood still, Odom looked at him meanly.Li Wan nodded, he had seen it just now, the cold face, the familiar red lips, the golden "big wave" on the logo did not let go this time, but was randomly arranged into a bun, with a kind of messy beauty.Coupled with a light pink flat-shoulder dress on her body, she looks feminine again.

Li Wan stood with his hands on his hips, and while waiting for the other Lakers players to come on the court, he turned his head and glanced at Scarlett. She was staring straight ahead, as if she had noticed Li Wan's gaze, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

But after the home ceremony was over, he didn't run to interact with Scarlett, but just pointed at her from a distance, and then ran to greet Yao Ming.

But this was enough to cause huge cheers from the scene, because Scarlett laughed... so much that a group of male fans unconsciously let out "wolf cries".

In terms of charm, Scarlett is full of men who play basketball.

Someone even wanted to drink her bath water.

"Hey, here we come, here we come, Dayao and Li Wan have a historic handshake!"

In the CCTV-5 studio, watching Li Wan hugging Yao Ming in the camera, director Zhang’s face was full of emotion, and the other two commentators, Su Qun and Yu Jia, looked similar to him.As the older generation of "basketball players" and "basketball-related industry practitioners", they are well aware that China's basketball has not been easy along the way.

This simple interaction between Li Wan and Yao Ming on the sidelines is the epitome of the hard work of generations of Chinese basketball!
Over there, Kobe and McGrady greeted each other early, and when they entered the court, they all looked serious. ——Although McGrady didn't seem to wake up.

Kobe simply didn't want to lose. Even after winning the last game against the Grizzlies, they had overtaken the Hornets and became the new No. [-] in the Western Conference this season. He still didn't want to lose any games.

Paranoia made him successful and made him even more paranoid.

McGrady's seriousness is entirely because the current record of the Rockets is not very satisfactory, only ranked tenth in the West, and the Houston media's doubts about him are getting louder and louder.

Because his various statistics have dropped a lot compared to last year, especially the scoring average. Since 04, it has dropped to an average of 21 points per game for the first time.

And the three-point shooting rate is only 29.7% per game...

McGrady has always given people the illusion that three-pointers are accurate, and most of them came from the game that moved God. In fact, in his years with the Rockets, he averaged 33.1% per game in the highest season, and the lowest season was This season, almost catching up with Jordan.

Although Yao Ming's scoring average is less than last season, his rebounds and assists are higher than last season.

Most importantly, Yao Ming rejected the invitation of Kobe and "Zen Master" in 05. He renewed his contract for 5 million five years in advance to show his loyalty and saved a lot of salary space for the team.

On the other hand, McGrady signed a three-year high salary of 3 million this summer, especially the last year, which directly made him the league's first high-paid player.

In other words, the money Yao Ming saved by renewing his contract in advance went to his account.

Under such circumstances, the average data per game has declined in an all-round way, coupled with the team's poor record, this account is naturally on his head.

and……

Questions about his ability to lead the team have already begun since his sentence "I'm already thinking about the next round".

The same dignified expression, and "Little Shark" Bynum.

The media "digged holes" before the game, and he once again stated that he would score "20 plus 10" in this game against the Rockets.

At this moment, his attitude towards this game is the same as that of Hamlet.

To be or not to be...

Andrew Hamlet Bynum wants to survive!
This fighting spirit allowed him to successfully jump to the opening ball for the Lakers.

Director Zhang watched Bynum asking for the ball under the basket: "Let's look at the first attack, hey, it's Bynum attacking Dayao, let's see what the result is... shot!"

"Just talk about Bynum's two kicks. Don't play in front of Dayao. When Dayao was playing with his feet, he was still playing with mud in high school!"

Su Qun and Yu Jia laughed, and Bynum challenged twice before the game that he would score 20 plus 10 in the game against the Rockets.

The scene of the first attack tonight made them feel comfortable!
Bynum turned back to the defense with a sullen head.

Kobe shook his head speechlessly, "Live broadcast across the United States", there are cameras everywhere, he wanted to save some face for Bynum, but he was blocked...

"This Bynum...isn't it a fool!" Director Zhang saw Kobe's dissatisfaction, and cursed instead.

When it was the Rockets' turn to attack, Director Zhang frowned even deeper. Not only was he frowning, Su Qun and Yu Jia were also frowning.

This summer the Rockets suddenly changed their coaches. "Vampire" Jeff Van Gundy was fired, new coach Adelman came online, and the Rockets also changed from the traditional half-court battle to the famous "Princeton system".

In China, it now has a new term: "Abolish Yao" tactics!
Jeff Van Gundy is not a "famous coach" coach. Simply put, if you give him a lineup of 500 million, he can perform miracles and achieve the effect of 1000 million, but if you give him a lineup of 2 million, he is still the same. Only 1000 million effects can be played.

Rigidity and stubbornness are the two most serious problems in his coaching.

These two points are no longer shortcomings after he became a commentator.

So some people are naturally suitable for "talking", Jeff Ma Su Van Gundy is a typical example.

But there's one thing he does well.

His understanding of traditional centers is very good, and Yao Ming has also grown into a super center with an average of 25 plus 10 per game under his hands.

Although some experts later said that Dayao was injured and retired prematurely because of excessive weight gain.But if you really want to say it, you can't blame Jeff Van Gundy. He hasn't coached a big center who plays in the international league every off-season.

Moreover, the person who really made Yao Ming a problem...

It's Adelman.

This old man who has the title of "Famous Marshal" and has spent his whole life as a "Gorgeous King" is also stubborn and rigid.Let Yao Ming's "attack weapon" not be used, and let him stand in a high position to support it.

It's like having Shaquille O'Neal play Divac's style of play...

This is not self-defeating martial arts, what is it called?
The problem is, Yao Ming hinted in front of the media several times that he wants to play the "Princeton" system that fits the Rockets' situation, but Adelman still said to him, go to the high position to support!

For the Lakers, seeing Yao Ming's high position, the outside line also shrank collectively. Yao Ming, who couldn't get the ball, could only go down. He couldn't go outside to shoot three-pointers, could he?
The "streetball king" Alston, who happened to slip through the "back door", collided with him. McGrady held the ball outside the three-point line on the right, and the familiar "Rocket dead time" came.

"Hey, look, this shot is very unreasonable, McGrady should replace it quickly, he just hits like crazy on the court, give it to Yao Ming!"

In this round, Yao Ming didn't even touch the ball. Director Zhang became impatient and wanted to change players.

The longer people watch the game, the more they can feel that McGrady's addition to Dayao is really not that big.

There was a player on each side who seemed to Director Zhang to be playing blindly. In the first minute of the game, neither side scored.
