Basketball: Dayao Reopened

That's the end of the All-Star Weekend.

As the "vote king" of this All-Star Weekend, Yao Ming did not have a strong sense of presence in this All-Star Weekend. This makes domestic fans feel a little unhappy.

However, after the end of this All-Star Weekend, there was news that the next All-Star Weekend would be held in Houston. This news made domestic fans suddenly look forward to it.

Houston is Yao Ming's territory.

By then, Yao Ming must have a lot of scenes.

And because of his popularity, many interesting things will surely happen by then...

Yao Ming himself was a little surprised.

He clearly remembered that next year's All-Star Weekend should be held in Denver, so why did it suddenly change to Houston?

Is it the "butterfly effect" again?

Well, yes, wherever there is change, it is attributed to the "butterfly effect" caused by Yao's name.

Of course, this time is indeed related to Yao Ming.

He won the "vote king" of the All-Star Weekend this year, and the number of votes is still so high, which makes Stern's "heart of supporting Yao" a little heavier. No, he originally planned to put the All-Star Weekend in Denver next year. Yes, it has now been changed to Houston!

...

Yao Ming and Francis returned to Houston overnight.

Francis relied on the idea of ​​"Spiderman" and signed another 20 million endorsements, so on the way back, he laughed and never closed his mouth.

"Yao, did you explain that I will still participate in the dunk contest this year?"

He seems to be a little addicted.

Moreover, if he can win the championship next year, he can become the first guy in NBA history to win the title of "Slam Dunk King" for three consecutive times.

This record is quite exciting for Francis.

After all, he knows very well that apart from this matter that he may achieve the title of "NBA History No. 1", he shouldn't be able to do anything else.

Yao Ming said: "Two championships are actually not bad!"

He did not approve of Francis's continued participation.

Even though Francis has good physical fitness, the key to his victory is well known to everyone. The creativity of "Spider-Man" is fundamental. But no matter how creative it is, it makes people feel boring to play too much.

Francis has played "Spiderman" dunk twice.

Especially this year's deduction is entirely a sentiment point... If you still participate next year, you may have to attract scolding.

And, more importantly, Francis defeated Richardson with two perfect score ideas last year. This year, Jones was completely inadequate, but next year will be different. If Yao Ming remembers correctly, Josh Smith This "violent dunk" will enter the draft this summer. He is a good dunk player. It is really impossible to beat him with a "Spider-Man" dunk.

As for the more creative and difficult dunks, Yao Ming has it in his mind, but the problem is that Francis must not be able to do it, such as "Scorpion Swinging Tail", even if he knows the action, he will definitely not be able to do it.

In a word, just accept it when you see it!

"And man, our goal next year is to defend the title, we need to devote ourselves to the game!" Yao Ming added.

Still the same sentence, if he directly said that Francis is not good, this guy must be dissatisfied, his self-confidence does not allow others to say that he is not good. But adding this sentence "we have more important goals", he was immediately happy.

"Yes, buddy, you are right, let the Spider-Man story end here, I really am not young anymore!"

After this year, Francis will be 28 years old next year. At this age, his jumping ability has indeed begun to decline. It is said that Francis faded out of the league within a few years after leaving the Rockets. In addition to his off-court style, it also has something to do with his age. His original style of play relied heavily on his body. Almost, but this year his shooting stability is so good. Even if his physical fitness declines, he should be able to hone his floor flow skills. Although his personality is estimated to be unable to train Kobe Jordan's backward jumper, but with It shouldn't be difficult to use experience and shooting to deal with opponents like the later "French Sports Car"!

Of course, even if Francis did not succeed in the transition, he left the league after the end of the 80 million contract, and the time for his bankruptcy should be delayed.

Don’t forget, with these two dunk kings, Francis has made more than 60 million more than his previous life...

And this season after he concentrated on the court, Yao Ming found that there were a lot less friends and friends behind this guy, which made him reduce a lot of unnecessary expenses. In fact, many NBA players went bankrupt and it was not because they spent money on their own. How powerful, but there are too many "friends" around. The "black circle" is very popular, "Going rich, don't forget each other", but it is sucking blood. "Disperse", change individuals and continue to suck...Such a situation is too common in the "black circle".

...

With the end of the All-Star Weekend, the NBA free market is also officially closed. This is an opportunity for NBA teams to make the final reinforcements this season. In previous years, at this time, there will be some relatively large transactions, and even some changes to the league. Pattern of transactions.

But this year, the movement seems to be a little bit smaller, and it's just a small deal.

Well, at this time, there really was a deal that had a major impact on this season: the Blazers sent Rasheed Wallace to the Hawks, and the Hawks waived this guy a day later. Then Rasheed Wallace joined the Pistons to form the famous "Pistons Five Tigers" and overturned the "Lakers f4" in the finals of this season and became the ultimate championship.

Of course, as far as Yao Ming saw this deal from the perspective of latecomers, there was obviously something tricky in it.

Because the Hawks is obviously a transit point.

Rashid Wallace was going to be the Pistons in the end.

And the result of this trade is that the Pistons retained their capital to the greatest extent, and they also got a super booster Rasheed Wallace, which allowed them to have enough capital when they overthrew the Lakers...

There is even reason to suspect that there is Stern's acquiescence behind all this, and he does not want to see the Lakers win the championship again.

Moreover, all of this is traceable.

In the 09-10 season, the Cavaliers replaced Antoine Jamison with Big Z, and then the Wizards cut Big Z. After 48 hours, Big Z re-signed with the Cavaliers at a minimum salary. The Cavaliers played a game and the whole league was in an uproar. "Empty Glove White Wolf" opened up new ideas for many general managers at that time.

Is this deal similar to the original Pistons deal?

At that time, the slogan of the alliance "23vs24" had been chanted for two years...

However, this was the situation at the time, Yao Ming reopened, and the tricky deal behind it had long since died because of Larry Bird's cross-handing.

Rasheed Wallace has gone to the Pacers, and the Pistons can only spend a lot of money to sign Chris Weber in order to strengthen.

Judging from this situation, it seems that David Stern has not been involved in the trade of the year, but this may also be related to Karl Malone not going to the Lakers this year, and there are so many strong teams in the West that are balancing the Lakers. The team is about...

This also makes this year's free market door closed quietly.

On February 17, the NBA03~04 regular season continued to kick off.

The Rockets’ first game after the All-Star Weekend was against the Raptors.

The day before this game, Vince Carter had Yao Ming’s big sausage as he wished, um, Mexican sausage, cumin flavored. After eating this meal, Vince Carter happily returned to the hotel, and then went back to the hotel the next day. On the court, Yao Ming invited him to eat two "hot pot" meals, one of which slapped the ball directly to the audience.

It's exciting enough for the Houston fans.

In the end, the Rockets easily won the final victory 98-85.

Carter said: "It seems that I will practice shooting more this summer, otherwise I really can't fight with you!"

Two consecutive games with the Rockets were capped at the basket, allowing Carter to see his technical shortcomings.

Vince Carter suddenly said this to Yao Ming, which made him stunned. Later, Carter did develop his shooting ability, and it was quite accurate. It was also based on a three-pointer that he practiced. He was stunned to become the longest player in the NBA. Man!

But now Vince Carter is only 27 years old!

There are still 14 years before he retires. In addition, he has only been paddled by Bruce Bowen once, and his physical fitness is still there. When he is far from changing his style of play, he suddenly told him that he was going to practice shooting. If you really want to practice shooting two years in advance... Then the league will have a powerful wing that can shoot and jump!

If the Raptors management can do more and get a better helper, plus Chris Bosh, it will be the "Big Three" in Toronto...

I really can't see the future situation of the alliance more and more!

Yao Ming said something in his heart.

He suddenly felt that at most two or three years, he would not be able to see the future situation of the alliance at all.

However, perhaps this has proved that my reopening did have a lot of impact, otherwise it would not have had so much impact so soon.

Thinking this way, Yao Ming felt a lot more comfortable.

After playing the Raptors, the Rockets challenged the Hornets away, because the away game of the Hornets and the next home game of the Knicks are linked "back-to-back". For the sake of safety, Tom chose to win one game first, and New Orleans therefore Encountered a "slaughter", the Rockets won 100 to 70 and won 30 points. Yao Ming scored 45 points in this game, allowing the people of New Orleans to see the dominance of the "big devil" once again.

After winning the game, Tom showed an expression of "what's wrong" when he was preparing for the game with the New York Knicks late at night. It doesn't matter whether this game is won or not.

When the game started, the Rockets did show a bit of exhaustion, but the New York Knicks never disappointed when it came to disappointing people. The Rockets have clearly shown fatigue, but this group of guys still can't beat them. , 98 to 89, the Rockets defeated the New York Knicks by 9 points. For the first time this season, they won two consecutive victories in a "back-to-back" schedule.

The New York media wailed for a while, but from Yao Ming's point of view, they were clearly wailing early, so where is this? In the next few years, that is the real "mud foot sinking"!

To say that the "Smiling Assassin" is enough, this is only the first year in New York, which has turned this team from last season's playoff team into the fourth-worst team in the Eastern Conference this season.

However, from Thomas's point of view, the New York Knicks are obviously not bad enough...Where is this?

After playing "back-to-back", the Rockets only took a day off, and then ushered in the challenge of the previous enemy Kings at home. This is the first time Yao Ming has met this team since they traded for Chris Weber.

At this time of the schedule, the rest of the day was obviously not enough to allow a team to recover from the "back-to-back". The Rockets' state is still a bit sluggish, which also led to their eventual loss of the game.

This can make the Sacramento media happy, and at any rate it can be regarded as a bit of justice for being eliminated by the Rockets in the playoffs last season.

"Seriously, we should have traded Chris Webb long ago!"

"Chris Webber, did you see that? After trading you, we beat the Rockets right away!"

"You have delayed us for too many years, Chris Weber!"

Happy they started looking for something.

Chris Webber was dissatisfied.

This was undoubtedly unacceptable to the former "king", and he immediately fought back through the media.

The Sacramento media really don’t miss the old feelings at all. They actually cut out the shots of Chris Webber’s past shots and irons at key moments and low-level mistakes, and finally added a sentence: If you can do it once, We have all won the championship!

"Shrimp and Pig Heart"...

This is really "Shrimp Pork Heart"!

Only this video made Chris Webb flushed with anger.

However, he did not fight back, but waited for the Pistons to play against the Kings. He will be on the court to let the Sacramento media know who is delaying whom!

Yao Ming watched Chris Webber and the Sacramento media’s dissembling each other so shamelessly. He couldn’t help but think of what the Rockets’ fans and the Houston media would look like when he left Houston in the future. What about his attitude?

If it were the same as the media in Sacramento... I guess it would be sad, right?

Yao Ming was very embarrassed.

Karl Malone was also a little nervous about the spat between Chris Webber and the Sacramento media.

The Rockets' next game is an away challenge to the Utah Jazz.

After leaving Utah, the "postman" returned to Salt Lake City as an opponent for the first time. Seeing Chris Webber being dissed by the Sacramento media, Karl Malone was somewhat apprehensive.

"You said that if they treat me the same way, what should I do?" Karl Malone, with a big waist, was rarely helpless on his face. He obviously didn't want that to happen.

Yao Ming made a joke: "Then you can elbow with him!"

It can be seen that Karl Malone is really nervous, Yao Ming's joke didn't make him react at all...On the contrary, it made his whole person's expression even more worried.

"Okay, don't worry, you have dedicated your entire career to them, 18 years! People are emotional, they will never boo you!"

Yao Ming comforted.

I added another sentence in my heart: But if you boo, don't be too sad, this is this alliance!

Karl Malone didn't speak, and Yao Ming didn't continue to persuade him. After some time, Karl Malone suddenly said: "Even if they boo me, I will recognize it. Who told me not to bring them the championship!"

These words were not loud, but they made Yao Ming get goose bumps.

To be honest, Yao Ming is now playing the NBA as a pure business league. What kind of choice is beneficial to him, he chooses, so he wants honor, so he forces the team to make up for it, and he has done it well. Prepared for the death of the fish and the breaking of the net.

Seeing what happened to Chris Webb in the past two days, he was even more grateful that he did so, because even if he failed, he would not have any regrets.

But now looking at Karl Malone, he is willing to believe that the NBA at this time is not so purely a commercial league. Now, there are still a bunch of pure people. They love the fans who support them, and they love the ball they play. Team, this is the "Era of Innocence" of this league...Of course, what Yao Ming saw is the last little tail of this "Era of Innocence".

Hope everything has a good result!

Yao Ming knows very well that although Karl Malone said so, if the fans in Salt Lake City really booed him, he would definitely be very sad. He hoped that Karl Malone's gentleness would be treated kindly!

The results proved that this era is indeed the last tail of the "Era of Innocence".

When the Rockets got off the plane, the media in Salt Lake City had begun to publish articles, recalling Karl Malone’s 18 years of playing here, which was obviously instructed.

This game also seemed very warm with these memories.

When Karl Malone really appeared again in the Energy Cube Arena, the fans on the scene welcomed the veteran's return with 5 minutes of cheers. Many fans wore the No. 32 jersey, which belonged to the Jazz era. Karl Malone.

Salt Lake City, known as "the home of the devil," at this moment gave their gentleness to the man who played for the Jazz for 18 years and devoted his entire youth to this team.

The Jazz management also released a 15-minute short film to pay tribute to Karl Malone.

The owner of the Jazz team was on the scene tonight and announced in public that he would build a bronze statue for him and Stockton at the gate of the arena...

Karl Malone cried in his warmth!

He probably didn't expect that he could be treated like this. What he originally wanted was not to be booed.

"Thank you, I'm just a deserter, I'm really sorry!"

This is what Karl Malone left to all Salt Lake City fans after the game.

Then the Rockets left Salt Lake City with a victory...

"Man, you live what most players want!"

Being so loved by the fans of the team he played for, so promised by the owner of the team he played for... Looking at everything Karl Malone has received tonight, Yao Ming has to admit that he is envious.

Before the reopening, although he also asked Alexander to say: "I am very grateful to Yao, it is Yao who made me so much money!"

But this guy didn't do anything for Yao Ming until the end, let alone build a bronze statue, even the retired jersey was five years later, before he sold the team.

Just after retiring Yao Ming's jersey, he sold the team, so why did he choose Yao Ming's jersey at that time? You know everything!

This guy really was still sucking Yao Ming's blood until he dismissed the Rockets.

This is why Yao Ming admires Karl Malone.

At least he met a boss who did have feelings for him, not a boss who just wanted to **** his blood.

Yao Ming is a bit envious, and Chris Webber is only left with sour... Also leaving the team, I also brought so many first-round picks for the Kings, so Mody actually scolded me like this!

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became more involved in the usual training...

The belief in revenge can undoubtedly bring a continuous source of motivation, but no one thought that this guy could burst into this way:

"Slashing 51 points and 10 rebounds, Chris Webb completes his revenge! 》

"Who in the end delayed who, Chris Weber proved all in the first battle!" 》

"98-76, 22 points victory over the Kings, Chris Weber: Now, Sacramento, please stop mentioning my name! 》

Slash 51 points!

Chris Webber’s battle shocked the entire league and silenced the media in Sacramento. No wonder, he was abused for 22 points and his face was swollen. Who else has the face to bb?

It is the Detroit media who became active. Before this game, they actually felt that Dumars made a loss-making business and directly lost the future.

But now!

This 51 points made them really call "really fragrant"!

future?

What is the future?

Since we can grasp the present, what future do we want!

Chris Weber, forever!

Yao Ming was also taken aback by Chris Webber's performance, this guy can actually burst out such power under pressure.

Stop letting this guy find his feeling through this game, right?

If it really makes him feel in this game, and he has a chemical reaction with the rest of the Pistons, then this year's Eastern Conference playoffs will be good!

Don't forget, the Eastern Conference already has a "super-sweet" team...

I remember that the Pacers and Pistons were playing very hotly in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Yao Ming murmured, it is said that this time the Eastern Conference Finals was inextricably difficult to solve, and the feud was formed. Only then did the two sides foreshadowing the emotions of the game at the beginning of the new season, and then the most influential in NBA history appeared. "The Auburn Hills Palace Incident".

This time the two teams reconfigured and met again, I'm afraid it will be more lively then?

Yao Ming thought of Tom inexplicably, and he muttered in his heart: I don’t know if he will get his brain out...

Tom let out a cry.

The Rockets returned to the home court, ushering in the challenge of the Sonics.

There is no suspense in this game. The Sonics ranks fourth from the bottom in the West. Although the strong teams in the East are definitely bad teams when they come to the West, the bad teams in the West are still bad teams when they go to the East. This is called "There are thousands of ways to be strong, and weak teams are all pissed"!

In the end, the Rockets won the game without any risk. From the perspective of the entire game, the Rockets’ biggest opponent is their own touch. They didn’t feel very good at the start, and the Sonics kept pushing behind the ass. But when they felt their hands came back, the Sonics were defeated in one wave.

Ray Allen made 6 three-pointers in this game, but still couldn't recover the 15-point disadvantage of the Sonics. In the Rockets' home field, the Rockets won 98-80 with 18 points.

Yao Ming scored 31 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 blocks in this game.

Speaking of this game, there was a more interesting episode.

During the game, a Rockets fan on the sidelines suddenly shouted at Yao Ming: "Man, you should shoot more three-pointers at a 45-degree angle. You are very accurate in that position!"

Yao Ming nodded happily, and then he really shot a three-pointer at that position, let alone, really made it!

After entering, everyone next to the fan laughed, including the fan who made comments.

Yao Ming gave him a cordial high-five when he returned to the defense.

After the game, a reporter also asked about this, Yao Ming said: "Yes, he knows the ball well!"

Immediately he revealed the same emoji bag of Tylen Lue...

"Man, next, you will meet Kevin Garnett again. The outside world is paying attention to this game now. Who do you think will win this game?"

After playing the Sonics, the Rockets will have their last opponent in February, Kevin Garnett and the Timberwolves who Yao Ming has always kept in mind.

The outside world is also paying great attention to this game. As early as after the Rockets and the Jazz finished playing, some media began to look forward to the game.

Facing the reporter's question, Yao Ming didn't hesitate at all, and said directly: "Of course we won the final victory. Kevin is very good, and the Timberwolves are also very good, but we are undoubtedly the better team!"

The Timberwolves are still gaining momentum into February and have only lost three games so far, just like the Rockets.

Speaking of which, Yao Ming knows very well that the Timberwolves not only gained momentum in February, but also continued to gain momentum in March. They were originally so strong until the end, they won the first record in the Western Conference!

But no matter how strong the team’s momentum is, Yao Ming can’t have any ambiguity, because Kevin Garnett has now become his biggest competitor for the regular season MVP...

If you are shocked, some media will say that you don't have the temperament of a regular season MVP.

In short...you have to be confident all the way, and have to continue to win to the end. This is the regular season MVP attitude that the outside media most want to see-this is a second-class country.

"We are in a very good state. I believe we can win. We did lose to them, but that doesn't mean we will lose to them now!"

Kevin Garnett has the same attitude as Yao Ming, and he is full of confidence in himself and his team.

When they say this, the highlight of this game will naturally come.

Speaking of which, before the start of this game, it was not only the two of them talking to each other, Francis and Sprewell also dissed each other. They were angry in the last game and met again, and the fire burst again. Coming up.

"This game is interesting! Man, do you want to make a bet?" Kenny Smith was so excited that he suggested that Barkley make a bet.

Barkley didn't even ask what to bet, he said directly: "I bet the Rockets will win!"

That's the end of it, brother!

Kenny Smith cursed in his heart.

Recently Barkley started betting with him again. He thought this guy had come out of the shadow of the donkey's ass, but now it seems that although he has come out, he hasn't come out yet. This meets the Rockets. In the game, he will stand firmly on the side of Yao Ming and the Rockets.

What are you betting on?

Well, Kenny Smith is also a staunch supporter of Yao Ming.

He didn't want to understand the taste of a short-haired donkey like Barkley did.

However, although the bet was unsuccessful, there was never a lack of topics between the two people, and they soon chatted. Amidst the nonsense of the two of them, the Rockets vs. Timberwolves also officially started the game!

The Timberwolves got the ball.

Kevin Garnett was serious from the beginning.

Sprewell dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, looked at Lagabele, who was proactively approaching him, and sprayed towards Francis next to him: "Huh? Why is this kid coming to guard me, why? The famous dunk king, Was he also a coward?"

Francis was very angry, but Lagaber did not let the "madman" say more, he had already posted "madman" and began to interfere.

Sprewell felt the pressure that this guy put on him on the defensive end, and focused his entire attention on Lagabel.

The continuous fake moves won him the space to break through. Soon he forced a breakthrough from the right side of Lagabel, and Lagabel quickly moved in front of him.

Really encountered hard stubble!

"Madman" didn't hesitate anymore, and gave the ball from Lagarber's side to behind him. Kevin Garnett took the ball and raised his hand to try one.

"Huh!"

Goal in!

Tonight, "Wolf King" looks very good.

Francis went to the front court, and the "madman" rushed towards him at the first moment.

"I'm not like you, coward, come and see if you can break through me!"

Francis listened to Sprewell’s rubbish, and chose to answer with practical actions. A large change in front of his body deceived his center of gravity to one side, and then a Sam Gold-style dribble directly moved " Madman" shook away.

The Rockets fans on the sidelines looked at this scene and uttered a lot of cheers.

Amidst the cheers, Francis rushed to the basket and shot against Kevin Garnett.

"Dang!"

Missing the ball~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Snap! "

Fortunately, Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.

When the "Sugar Man" came to make up for him, he threw it into Karl Malone's hand.

"Huh!"

Also hit in the cast.

Karl Malone responded to Kevin Garnett's goal just now.

"You better solve my little brother first! You just couldn't even break through him! And I can easily shake you past!" Although Francis didn't score a goal, he just dangled the "madman" into that appearance. , It was enough that he pointed at "Madman"'s nose sobbing.

After all, on the street court, scoring is not the key, and the one who stuns the opponent is the most powerful guy...

It's just that, the smell of gunpowder is obviously heavier again!
