NBA: Fusion of two talents to dominate the entire league

"Roy, do you think my chance has come?"

McInnis asked excitedly after walking out of the locker room.

Roy glanced at this idiot and nodded:

"Chuck, you'd better focus on defense and doing the dirty work. The coach values ​​other abilities more than your score."

"Why? Every time you open the newspaper, the most eye-catching thing is how many points someone has scored, isn't it?"

McInnis looked at Roy with innocent eyes and expressed his thoughts.

"Listen, Chuck, those you are referring to are all stars. Even I was still mainly without the ball when Carter was still there.

If Vince hadn't had an accident tonight, do you think the coach would let you play? ?

He even considered Buford first, not you.

You can only prove that you are a reliable rotation player on the defensive end, and then consider how to score effectively step by step. "

After saying that, Roy patted McGuinness on the shoulder and signaled him to drive.

Not far away, Jefferson saw Roy and McGuinness arm in arm and felt indescribably angry.

It stands to reason that after Carter went down, he would be the team's second scorer.

Jefferson was also dissatisfied in his heart that Kidd chose Roy as the second ball holder.

I just made a few more mistakes, so what?

But the big brother's choice must have its own reasons. You two rookies are worthy of ignoring me?

Since Roy started to take the ball today, he and McGuinness flirted with each other and didn't take me, the third in command, seriously at all.

I didn't take the ball many times in the fourth quarter.

Carter had more ball rights, and I couldn't do anything about it. Who made him an All-Star?

Now even this second-round rookie can step on my head?

Is there any law left? Do you still understand what first come first served, seniority and inferiority mean?

Richard Jefferson had a lot of inner drama.

When he was thinking about talking to Roy,

the two had already got in the car.

Jefferson raised his hand and didn't put it down for a long time.

McInnis, who was in the driver's seat, passed by and thought that this teammate was a good person.

He rolled down the window, waved to him, and shouted goodbye!

…

Yao Restaurant in Houston, Roy met Dayao and his parents here.

His parents just came to accompany their son this year. The old couple is very kind. Yao Min's mother personally cooked a few Shanghai dishes.

Although it was a bit sweet in Roy's opinion, the overall taste was pretty good.

Because they had a game in the evening, the two did not eat too much, but mostly chatted.

As a senior World of Warcraft fan, Dayao even asked Roy if he also played this game.

Fortunately, Roy was an office worker in his previous life and did have a lot of experience in playing games. He played from the beginning to Pandaren.

The two had more common language.

Of course, there was also a reporter from CCTV stationed in Houston accompanying them.

According to him, a reporter will be sent to New Jersey in a few days to follow Roy's dynamics.

With the strength, the attention will naturally increase.

After dinner, the two agreed to go to the Rockets home court.

Yao Min volunteered to drive Roy there. ,

On the way, Roy thought about this Mercedes-Benz and never thought that he would have to carry two NBA players who weighed 500 kilograms in total.

The interior space of the sedan was small and a bit depressing. Compared with Roy's spacious off-road vehicle, it did feel a bit cramped.

Halfway through the journey, the two met a traffic policeman in Houston.

One of them was 2.26 meters tall and the other was 2.13 meters tall. They got off the small Mercedes-Benz. The traffic policeman was so surprised that his mouth opened wide.

Fortunately, there was only a rear-end collision not far away. The traffic policeman was setting up roadblocks to remind passing vehicles.

The traffic policeman obviously recognized Yao Min. Rockets posters are very common in the streets and alleys of Houston.

And this height cannot be faked. The excited traffic policeman even took a photo with Yao Min using the 300,000 mosaic pixels of his mobile phone.

The two happily arrived at the Toyota Center, the home of the Houston Rockets.

This stadium was just put into operation last year. The stadium facilities are very modern.

At least it is much better than the home of the New Jersey Nets.

After two games in China, the two teams are old acquaintances.

McGrady even came to greet Roy and Kidd, and asked about his unlucky cousin.

When he learned that Carter's injury would take 4-6 weeks to recover, he sighed.

McGrady has been troubled by back injuries all his life, and he certainly knows the taste of injuries.

This was the first year he and Yao Min joined forces, and it was also the healthiest year for both of them. Unfortunately, they fell to the Mavericks due to black whistle.

After that, every year, either McGrady was injured or Yao Min was injured. The two played very little time together.

The RocketsThe owner of the Arrows, Alexander, is really a capitalist. He bought the team for business investment, not true love.

He was stingy with the budget. Every summer, there was a lot of thunder but little rain. He paired two All-Stars with a group of useless veterans and misfits.

Roy vaguely remembers the current Juwan Howard, David Wesley, and later Sura, Swift, Alston, Jon Barry, and Hyde.

Each of them was a talent of heaven and earth, and was deceived by the unscrupulous media every summer vacation.

Until 2009, Artest was found, paired with Scola and Lowry. Originally, as long as the Lakers passed that year, there would be a smooth road ahead.

Unfortunately, McGrady had surgery and was reimbursed, and Dayao fell in the third game of the Western Conference semifinals against the Lakers.

Many people's youth fell to the ground at the climax.

It can be said that the Rockets are a typical example of playing a good hand badly!

Roy really couldn't bear to tell Yao Min about his future fate, because at this moment, he and McGrady were both in high spirits.

His thoughts were interrupted by the referee's whistle. The game was about to start, and the starting lineups of the two teams walked to the midfield one after another.

Rockets starting lineup: Tyronn Lue (Coach Lue was McGrady and Kobe's younger brother), Tracy McGrady, Jim Jackson, Morris Taylor, Yao Min

Nets starting lineup: Jason Kidd, Richard Jefferson, Chuck McGinnis, Roy, Tyson Chandler

In Chandler's view, Yao Min was his destined enemy. Even if he was beaten every time, he still couldn't escape this fate.

As the whistle sounded, Yao Ming easily flicked the basketball over Chandler's head.

Nets coach Frank wondered whether he should let Chandler practice jump ball alone after the game. This was his fourth consecutive jump ball loss.

Frank picked up a small notebook and wrote it down.

Coach Lu really understands superstars. The star tactics in his mind should have been formed when he was a player.

After dribbling across half court, he honestly handed the ball to McGrady outside the three-point line.

All the tactics of this Rockets team started from McGrady, because the other organizational abilities were really not up to par.

He dribbled the ball twice, saw Yao Ming in position, and passed the ball over.

Yao Ming took the ball and played a single with his back to the basket. After turning around, he made an accurate hook shot.

Tyson Chandler didn't defend it as expected.

Every time Yao Ming played against him, he would force it steadily and score steadily. Chandler also accepted it steadily with a calm face.

There was no sense of disobedience, but the blood pressure of the coach in the distance would definitely not be low today.

"Tyson, show half the courage of your name and be tougher!" Coach Frank, who was not far away, really shouted.

Chandler made an OK gesture to the coach, and then thought to himself: you can you up, no can no.

Kidd was already organizing the offense in the half court, Chandler quickened his pace to catch up,

After the pick-and-roll with Roy, he passed the ball to Roy,

After Carter was gone, Roy was the team's top offensive firepower,

Naturally, the first round of offense was handed over to him, Roy changed direction with the ball and accelerated to break through Morris Taylor,

This player with strong offense and weak defense obviously couldn't handle Roy, fortunately McGrady's backup defense limited Roy's further breakthrough,

This season, the Rockets' defense has made great progress after Van Gundy came, because Van Gundy's assistant coach is called Thibodeau.

McGrady's defense of Jefferson had an open opportunity and reached out to Roy, and McGinnis, who was not far away, also ran out of the opportunity in the off-ball cut,

Who should be given the two choices? The Rockets' rotation obviously noticed Jefferson in the open position, Yao Min ran towards Jefferson,

In a flash, Roy decisively chose to cut to McGinnis under the basket,

A hidden ground ball, McGinnis received the ball and hit the basket.

Both Kidd and Frank were very satisfied with the tacit cooperation between the two. McGinnis excitedly rushed to Roy and high-fived to congratulate him,

You know, this is his first start in his career and the first time he scored a goal at the beginning,

Jefferson's face not far away became gloomy. He did not notice Yao Min's backup defense on the side,

He was blinded by jealousy in his heart, and he attributed all this to Roy and McGinnis excluding him:

You are playing brother to me here? Obviously I am the open position, why don't you pass the ball to me? Don't you treat me as a human being? Do I still have face as the third in command of the team!
