Godfather of basketball: coach Dayao to win the championship

After the All-Star Weekend, the Rockets ushered in another wave of strong enemies in the next game.

In the first game, they faced the San Antonio Spurs again.

This time, Han Ning's psychological tactics did not work again.

After Duncan was fooled once, he would not fall for the same trick a second time.

This can be regarded as a major feature of Duncan.

Otherwise, have you ever seen Duncan laugh on the court after he was sent off for that technical foul a few years later? !

Obviously not.

This time, the Rockets failed to win the game.

The Spurs maintained their lead almost the entire time.

The Rockets eventually lost the game by 97 to 102,5 points.

After this game, Han Ning's mood became much worse.

If they want to win the championship this season, the Spurs are definitely an insurmountable gap!

In the original historical process, the Spurs were the championship this season.

In other words, there is no way for the Rockets to enter the playoffs in order to avoid encountering the Spurs as much as possible.

The only result of doing this is to be able to find a way to meet the Spurs as late as possible.

But if you don't come up with a way to deal with the Spurs, it will be quite difficult for the Rockets to win the championship this year.

After losing to the Spurs, the Rockets encountered strong opponents such as the Dallas Mavericks and Detroit Pistons one after another.

The results of the game are mixed.

The Rockets couldn't keep their winning streak going.

But it also has a good win rate.

After all the games in January, the Rockets have a total of 31 wins and 14 losses.

With this score, if you want to enter the Western Conference playoffs this year, you need to win 37 of the remaining [-] games.

If Han Ning remembers correctly.

The No.8 team in the Western Conference regular season this season is the Phoenix Suns, with a record of 44 wins and 38 losses.

In other words, the Rockets only need to get 45 wins.

It is not difficult for the Rockets to win 37 games in 14 games.

But if they enter the playoffs with the eighth place in the Western Conference regular season, they will meet the Spurs in the first round of the playoffs.

This is a very bad result for the Rockets.

想要尽可能的避免早些遇到马刺队，那火箭队就需要在常规赛82场比赛结束之后，拿到西部常规赛排名第2名、第3名或者是第6名、第7名。

This will ensure that the Rockets can meet the Spurs in the final round of the Western Conference Finals.

In this case, the Rockets need to get at least 48 wins.

Taking into account the advantages of home and away, the Rockets are best to get the second or third place.

However, this season, the teams that ranked second and third in the regular season in the Western Conference were the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks respectively.

The two teams won 60 and 59 wins respectively.

If the Rockets want to achieve this result, they need to win more than 37 of the next 28 games.

This is an extremely difficult goal.

But it's not impossible to achieve it!

Han Ning came to the training ground and called all the Rockets players together.

"Guys, the All-Star weekend is over. Next, we have to work hard for the playoffs." Han Ning said.

The Rockets players on the scene raised their spirits one after another.

They didn't forget the word Han Ning wrote when he first came to the Rockets.

Champion!

Each of them wants to win the championship!

But this road is difficult!

Before Han Ning came to the Rockets, everyone didn't think they could win the championship this season.

Until Han Ning came to the Rockets and led them to a 15-game winning streak, tying the Rockets' record of 15 consecutive victories.

In these 15 games, they won one powerful opponent after another.

And after that, he also won the thriving Lakers!

This made all the Rockets players see the hope of winning the championship!

"Boss, what should we do?!" Francis was the first to respond.

Han Ning looked at Francis and smiled, then looked around again.

Shen Sheng said: "If we want to win the championship, we need to break through the western teams first."

"Among the teams in the West, the biggest obstacle we will encounter is the San Antonio Spurs. This season, the San Antonio Spurs have a high probability of winning the No. 1 Western Conference regular season."

"We lost to them the other day."

Speaking of this, the eyes of several Rockets players showed a trace of dissatisfaction.

"But it doesn't matter! I have already thought of a way to win the Spurs!"

"It's just that we need to get No.2 or No.3 results in the regular season!"

"As long as we can meet the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals, we will definitely win them!"

If Han Ning's words were heard by others, they would definitely be suspicious.

He only said he could win, but he didn't talk about the method.

Can you believe this? !

But the Rockets players who were fed countless chicken soup by Han Ning believed in it.

Because Han Ning said this more than once before, they all won their opponents in the end.

"There are 37 games left in the regular season. We must win at least 28 of them! Starting today, I want all of you to play every game as if it were a playoff game!"

"This year, I want each of you to wear that damn championship ring!"

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

As soon as Han Ning finished speaking, the Rockets players roared in anger.

The three championships seemed to be a nail that slammed into their hearts.

It left an indelible mark deep in my heart.

From this moment on, all the Rockets players started crazy training as if they had ignited the small universe.

And Han Ning also accomplished his goal, making the Rockets players more clear about their next goals, and fed another mouthful of delicious chicken soup to boost morale.

Finally, the next game came.

The Rockets are at home against the mighty Sacramento Kings!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Inside the Toyota Center arena, the Rockets fans made a burst of sound.

This year the Rockets want to enter the playoffs is basically a certainty.

The fans of the Rockets are getting more and more excited, and they are extremely looking forward to the Rockets' ability to shine in the playoffs.

The momentum of the fans cheering for the Rockets is getting bigger and bigger, and it seems to have become a well-deserved home of the devil.

Standing on the sidelines, Han Ning looked at the Kings players who were warming up not far away, and secretly made up his mind.

From this moment on, the Rockets' championship journey has officially started!

The Sacramento Kings are the first soul under the sword!

"beep!"

The whistle sounded.

The game officially begins!

Dayao stood in the midfield circle, jumped forward facing the jump ball, and slapped the ball to Francis behind him.
