Chapter 541 The future is time for rockets

After the game, the king flew back to Saskatchewan.

Su Yang took a day off happily and continued to pay attention to the series between the Rockets and the Warriors. What he said at the press conference before made fans and the media interpret that the Kings could easily beat the Rockets, so that the general manager of the Rockets, Morey tweeted a response .

"Thanks for Su's speech, let me know that not all Chinese are as humble as Yao, but I like challenges, I believe Harden and coach Mike Malone also like challenges, let's see what happens next! #红红国际#."

Many fans and media retweeted Morey.

Su Yang didn't bother to respond.

In the evening, the Warriors and Rockets game started.

LeBron put in 3% of his efforts to completely blow up Ariza and let Howard get 13 blocking fouls, while Clay made the most of his off-ball running, no matter if Terry chased or Beverly went Sticking, it didn't affect his [-] three-pointers.

After the game, the Warriors won by 20 points.

Sweep didn't show up.

Many fans began to discuss the possibility of the Warriors winning 4 consecutive games, and some people asked Su Yang: Why did the Warriors suddenly break out.

In Su Yang's view, the Warriors did not explode.

But the momentum was too strong, intimidating the Rockets' role players, and Harden failed to drive the audience. It is estimated that the game will be transferred to Golden State's home court, and the Rockets will lose another game. Then they fully reacted and defeated the Warriors in Game [-] to advance to the Western Conference Finals. Even play seven games.

The secret of the Rockets' winning, apart from Harden driving the team, is that it is better to restrict LeBron.

Ariza sticks close to the shot on the first layer, Josh assists in defense and controls the breakthrough route on the second layer, and Howard carries it head-on on the third layer.

Because of LeBron's weight loss, his shooting has steadily improved, but his impact is not as strong as before, which can be said to have gains and losses.

Except for LeBron, the rest of the Warriors are not very good at breakthroughs. Collison met the mad dog Beverly, which is really a bit difficult.

But the biggest reason is that it is not compatible with the Cole system. The weak defensive confrontation in the regular season has no effect, and the playoffs have completely exploded.

After watching the fourth game, Su Yang arranged for the scouting department and the assistant team to collect and analyze the Rockets video, and stopped caring about the game.

In the early morning of the next day, according to the plan, he and Jiang Ruolan attended the donation ceremony of the new school, initially investing 50 US dollars.

Saskatchewan has a large land area and few people, and the land use rights have been successfully approved. Later, we have to cooperate with the municipal government to handle groceries such as admission permits. There is no need to follow up and be responsible for the details. Anyway, just pay the money. As for whether it can make a profit, that depends Long-term operating ability.

Su Yang is very confident about profitability.

LeBron is able to open the school, and he is not inferior to LeBron in terms of finding someone to manage, especially the Chinese are the priority for enrollment.

At that time, it will be very easy to recruit those high school students who come to study in China in advance. With the name of Boss King, it will be very easy.

Regarding his thoughts, Jiang Ruolan laughed and said that he also wanted to earn his own money when he went abroad, just like a gangster.

After the donation ceremony, Su Yang flew to Los Angeles again to find time to work on short videos and financial related work.

MT is developing more and more like a combination of WeChat + Douyin. The two modules are still quite successful, and the investment cost is getting higher and higher. I plan to put the server in Iceland to save part of the cooling cost. Fortunately, the profit situation is very good. Well, not bad for money.

On the night of NO.15 in May, the Rockets defeated the Warriors 4-2 at home to advance and met the Kings in the Western Conference Finals.

Harden played well throughout the series, averaging 29.8 points, 8.9 assists and 3.8 rebounds per game. MVP No. 3 is worthy, while LeBron averaged 26.2 points, 8.8 assists and 11.0 rebounds per game. There is no doubt that he is the second MVP, but the result made many people dissatisfied.

The ridicule of LeBron has reached a new level, a bit close to the time when he just lost the finals in 11, and the rumors about LeBron's 1+1 contract and the Warriors boss seriously considering giving up LeBron are spreading crazily on Twitter and other platforms .

One of the most fascinating rumors.

It is LeBron's agent, Rich Paul, who hopes that the Warriors will sign another player under him, Tristan Thompson, in the offseason, and ask for a maximum salary contract of the corresponding level. The bargaining chip for contract renewal, but Warriors boss Lacob is unwilling to accept it. The main personal data of Tristan Thompson is only 8 points and 8 rebounds.

8 points and 8 rebounds need to get the maximum salary of the corresponding level.

Other players also signed farts.

But considering the relationship between LeBron and Rich Paul, even if LeBron didn't speak, he would automatically think about threats.

However, various discussions quickly lost their heat.

Primary Rockets guard Jason Terry tweeted: "Houston Rockets time from now on #redcountry#."

Many fans and the media interpreted Terry's tweet as the Rockets' championship declaration, although the boss Harden hasn't said anything yet.

In the post-match press conference, the reporter asked Harden how he viewed the upcoming Kings and whether he was ready to prove himself.

Harden scratched his beard and said calmly: "I am looking forward to the game. I don't have to prove myself. I just play. That's what coach Su Yang taught me a long time ago. I lost my way in the first two seasons. But now that I'm back, I will unite all my teammates to fight together, that is the secret to defeating the Warriors, we will continue to use it, and leave the rest to God."

Seeing Harden's interview, Su Yang was shocked.

That is a mature and confident Harden.

The mentality is stronger than imagined, no longer 'can fight, can't plan to ask', a bit like a real boss.

ESPN and other media forecasts followed.

14 experts participated, and 8 of them supported the Rockets to advance to the finals. The main reason was that no one in the Kings could defend against Harden. Foul skills, and then drive the Rockets team, and the Rockets have a small lineup compared to the Thunder, no one is faster than Westbrook, but the overall impact is stronger.

In particular, everyone in the Rockets can shoot three-pointers. In the series against the Warriors, they averaged 42.3 shots and 15.5 hits.

The overall three-point shooting rate is as high as 36.6%.

That kind of shooting ability is a great threat to the King's backcourt defense, while Curry, LaVine, and Thomas Jr. have average or deviated defensive abilities. Only Turner is above the standard, but Turner defends Harden alone. Most of them are free.

The other 6 experts who supported the promotion of the Kings believed that the strongest part of the Kings is that they can deal with any lineup. At the beginning, they defeated the Thunder with five small lineups and one-on-one. Lianzhong.

In short, kings are hard to beat.

Once the king broke out, the other teams collapsed directly.

The major casinos in Las Vegas have also adjusted the odds of the series between the Kings and the Rockets, and are more optimistic about the Rockets' final promotion.

Su Yang was confused by the speeches of various experts.

I also know that it is for the purpose of making shows and attracting traffic, but no one has mentioned the problem of the Rockets' backcourt defense.

The King couldn't prevent the Rockets' backcourt attack.

The Rockets couldn't prevent the King's backcourt impact.

Unless Beverly hits Curry's knee, Curry can blow up the Rockets' backcourt alone, there is absolutely no doubt.

If the Rockets want to compete with the Kings in a smaller lineup, they are looking for death. Antetokounmpo and Green will teach them how to behave.

Su Yang is very confident, and the series will be 4-1 at most.
