full court guidance

Chapter 52 It's been a long time since I asked for a collection recommendation!

The late "injury" did have a certain impact on the Rockets. The difference between the two sides was not that big, and they slowly began to approach.

Bruce Bowen was expelled by the referee with a second-level flagrant foul, but the Spurs' purpose has been achieved. Bowen is just a role player, and he "ends" the most powerful outside firepower of the Rockets.

Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady were desperate and desperate to find a confrontation with the Spurs. The smell of gunpowder on the court was getting stronger. In order to control the situation on the court, the referee whistled frequently, making the game gradually fragmented.

The fans no longer care about the scores on the court. What they want to know more is, what happened to being late?

Especially the fans of the Rockets, they hope to see the return of the king staged late.

The Rockets and Spurs grind their defenses, and the game becomes more and more ugly.

With the efforts of Yao Ming and McGrady, they finally maintained a 4-point lead and entered the fourth quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Ginobili began to show his power. With a sharp breakthrough, he rushed into the inside of the Rockets many times to cause damage, causing consecutive fouls by Yao Ming, and soon evened out the 4-point difference.

Tracy McGrady didn't feel good today, and without being late as an outside endpoint, he was also frequently double-teamed.

Except for Yao Ming, other Rocket players simply couldn't give enough support.

Barkley has now blatantly sided with the Rockets, slamming the stupidity of the Rockets management: "They should work harder this summer, relying on their Big Three and introducing some veterans who want to win the championship, as long as they can keep the Big Three healthy, They will definitely win the championship next year. Look at the current Rockets lineup, they can do nothing except defense. Van Gundy is not a suitable coach for the Rockets at all, his tactics are too conservative."

At 7:12 of the fourth quarter, as Duncan hit a rebound shot, the Spurs finally overtook the score.

Then Yao Ming missed the basket, and the Spurs counterattacked and scored another goal.

Yao Ming put his waist down, looking a little dazed.

McGrady was also looking at him, his face full of helplessness.

The Spurs are a seasoned team, once they get the lead, they will never show their flaws easily.

Sure enough, although Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady scored consecutive points for the Rockets, they were still unable to narrow the gap between the two sides.

At 4:37 in the fourth quarter, the Rockets requested a timeout and came back from the player channel late.

The timeout ended, the Rockets requested a substitution, No. 66 was late, and No. 25 Mucci Norris was off.

When seeing Late standing on the court, there was a burst of applause at the AT&T Center. Late appeared when the Rockets needed him most.

"Late never late!" Charles Barkley shouted emotionally, "If he returns late today and leads the Rockets to victory, he will complete his transformation and become a real giant of the Rockets."

Kenny Smith poured cold water: "It's a pity that he can play in the Rockets for another year at most. The Rockets currently have no salary space to renew him. You must know that Yao's rookie contract will expire next year. I want to renew Yao's contract." That's the Rockets' top priority."

In fact, all three people present knew that even if the Rockets had enough salary space, the league would never allow being late and continue to play for the Rockets.

Don't forget the identity of the late player. He is a Chinese player and an important key for the NBA to open up the Chinese market. If he is on the same team as Yao Ming, it would be a waste.

Moreover, his late arrival as a scientist will also keep him topical enough. As for which team he will eventually join, it depends on which teams in the league are more sincere.

He was late with a thick bandage wrapped around his left elbow, which greatly affected his activities.

But he only shoots with one hand and still maintains a good shooting percentage.

In the end, under the leadership of the late Return of the King, the Rockets defeated the Spurs 108:99 and won their first victory in the Western Conference Finals.

He made 22 of 14 three-pointers in this game and scored 44 points, which is the most important factor for the Rockets to win.

However, according to statistics, after he returned from injury, because he could only shoot with one hand, his shooting percentage dropped to 40%.

At the post-match press conference, Van Gundy strongly condemned Bruce Bowen's rough foul, said something similar to Barkley, and asked the league to impose heavy penalties on players like Bruce Bowen.

Zhuge Weiqi said in an interview that all this was just an accident. Bowen just wanted to guard the ball too much and didn't control his body well, which caused the two people to collide. Bowen was also injured because of this. He didn't on purpose.

Some media asked about Bowen’s condition. Zhuge Weiqi said with great pain that Bowen’s injury is currently unknown. Shortly after the start of the fourth quarter, he felt a lot of discomfort in his body and has been sent to the hospital for diagnosis. The specific situation needs to be confirmed. Look at the hospital's inspection report.

Late that night, Bruce Bowen's inspection report came out.

He suffered multiple serious injuries, including a fractured rib, a severe groin strain and a torn thigh muscle.The most serious thing is his Achilles tendon rupture. At his current age, it can almost declare that Bruce Bowen's career is over!

After the inspection report came out, no one sympathized with what happened to Bruce Bowen. The multi-angle slow motion of TNT TV station showed that this time the injury was deliberately found by Bruce Bowen himself. His purpose was to be late for the injury. .

It's just that luck was on the side of being late this time, because the late test results came out. He only had a slight muscle strain in his arm and needed to rest for two days. He couldn't play in the next game against the Spurs.

In order to allow Late to recuperate better, the Rockets made a special trip to send Late back to Houston in advance, so that he can rest at ease and prepare for the third game against the Spurs.

After the news came out, Nets star Vince Carter was the first to react.

He wrote on his Facebook page: I watched the game in slow motion and I bet that guy just wanted to hurt late.God forbid, it's okay to be late, otherwise we might lose one of the greatest shooters in history.Damn Bruce Bowen, you asked for it all.

Vince Carter hated Bruce Bowen to the bone, and his words revealed a deep hatred.

Well-known stars such as Kobe and Iverson also expressed their views one after another. Without exception, they all supported being late and believed that he was an innocent victim.

When the news reached David Stern, Mr. President was furious.

Being late is no ordinary player. He is not only a basketball star, but also has considerable influence in the scientific research community. In fact, the US government has repeatedly expressed "concern" about whether being late is treated fairly in the NBA.

The implication is to ask Mr. President to give more stars to the latecomers. If he wants to let him feel the harmony and beauty of our Great Free Beacon Country, it is best if he is deeply moved and finally chooses to immigrate. That would be the best.

now what!
What do you want to do with the San Antonio Spurs?Want to murder one of the greatest scientists in human history (tentative)?Are you trying to smash the signboard of my Beacon of Freedom?Do you want to ruin my NBA league?
Your Spurs are so ugly that they are not entertaining at all. The Pistons in the East are also a team known for their defense. If the Pistons and Spurs reach the finals, will the ratings still matter?

Seeing that the Rockets are now likely to enter the finals, there are Chinese stars in the team, and the topic is full, why are you jumping out to deliberately hurt people now?

Stern fell into an uncontrollable rage, and at his urging, the league issued the most severe ticket in history at the fastest speed.

Bruce Bowen is permanently suspended and banned from participating in any NBA-related business activities in the future.

Even Zhuge Weiqi was implicated and punished, he was suspended for three games!
This also means that in the next game, the Spurs can only be coached by an assistant coach.

Zhuge Weiqi, who got the ticket, was stunned.

Even though I hinted that Bruce Bowen had better stop being late, I never said anything inappropriate in public, did I?

Zhuge Weiqi is old and cunning, so naturally he won't give others a handle.

But the reason given by the league is that Zhuge Weiqi talked about the referee...

Nima, this made Zhuge Weiqi feel a little unacceptable. Isn't it common practice to say something to the referee in every game, and fines are enough. Why should I be suspended for the game!

But that's not all.

On May 5, being late "due to injury", the Rockets broke out completely and dominated the away game.

As the home team, the Spurs not only did not enjoy any convenience at home, but also got blown a lot of body whistle.

McGrady rushed to the basket with the ball, as long as someone dared to block it, it would be a foul immediately.

In Yao Ming's singles play at the basket, Deng Dada just pushed it up, and was immediately whistled for a foul by the referee. What's more, during the rest of the second quarter, Dada told a joke to his teammates and showed an "evil" smile. The referee decisively gave an unwarranted technical foul!
最终凭借着全场40次的罚球，火箭以112:96轻松战胜马刺，带着2:0的比分回到了休斯顿。

After returning to Houston, after a night of rest, Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady came late for a joint visit.

When they arrived, Big Zhi was there. After greeting them, Yao Ming and McGrady asked with smiles all over their faces, "How did you do it? Bruce Bowen is dead, you are really ruthless."

Late said indifferently: "He has brought the blame on himself. If he didn't want to hurt me, I wouldn't have made him like that. He asked for it. When he jumped up at me, I knew what he was hitting Abacus, so I played a game of leverage, and my elbows are not so delicious."

Yao Ming looked scared: "If you hadn't vaccinated us during the intermission, I really can't imagine what would have happened."

I was late and didn't want to talk more about this topic, so I changed the subject: "If it's not for avoiding suspicion, I don't have to pretend to be hurt. Forget it, I've been researching a good thing recently, you see..."

Yao Ming and Mai Di stayed at Late's house until the afternoon before leaving. Not long after that, Mr. Wu Pingsheng from the embassy visited.
