The Point Guard is Here

On February 20, Hugh City.

The boss of the Rockets attended the press conference of the little tiger and handed over the No. 30 jersey to Fan Xi. "I'm very happy that he can join the Lakers, Jack is a talented player, will be able to help us to victory!" Jew said to reporters with a smile.

He turned a deaf ear to the controversy in the media.

Because his manager told him that with this deal, many sponsors who had never looked at Houston before called to express their willingness to cooperate.

For New York, Vanhey's commercial value is just icing on the cake.

But for Hugh City, it was timely help.

The shrewd Jews really hope to make a lot of money in this basketball club.

"About the new tactical system, are you sure you can integrate into it? The Rockets are not good at fast running and bombing." The reporter's question was not kind, Fan Xi shrugged his shoulders, "This is my problem, and it is also Rudy's. Problem, I don't think anything said right now is useful in the game!"

Rudy Tomjanovich smiled heartily, and he has always maintained a decent image: "Don't forget Jack's tactical literacy. In fact, I am very optimistic about his integration into the Rockets' tactics as a whole!"

Yes, very optimistic indeed.

Because for Rudy Tomjanovich, Van Heede was there to save the game.

Charles Barkley joined the Rockets at almost zero cost last summer, making the Rockets feel like a treasure. But... Correspondingly, the early formation of the Big Three did not let the rocket go to space.

Although, they are one year younger than in history, and Drexler did not win the championship, the loss to the Knicks made the Rockets also full of emotions that the underdogs must win.

However, objective facts cannot be changed.

Olajuwon still became an American citizen this year and married an American girl 16 years younger than him. This old center, known for his honesty and honesty, is still full of peach blossoms at the age of 33. And, he still abides by his precepts, and will be vegetarian for a period of time every year.

Drexler's injury last year still affected his performance. His performance this year is obviously not as good as last year. Although he is still selected as the All-Star starter, if there is no accident, he will also enter the best team. However, the competition for shooting guards in the current NBA is not fierce. Michael Jordan is the only one, and then there are Drexler and Richmond who are empty.

Barkley's most arrogant bounce when he was young has also become fragile due to age and injuries.

Although he still has a terrifying ass.

However, the most important question still arises.

In fact, it was evident last season.

The Rockets lack a person who can glue the Big Three together.

Last season, Drexler and Olajuwon basically carried away the game respectively. Basically, in a game, the two cores led the team to play for a period.

This is even more so after Barkley joined this year.

The role of the three superstars did not have the effect of 1+1+1 greater than three.

Therefore, Tomjanovich took part in this gamble and dismantled most of the lineup in exchange for Fan Xie.

To some extent, it was not Fanhee who came to adapt to the tactical system at all, but let Fanhee come and jointly create a new tactical system.

"As a team, do we usually tend to draft the best player or the player who meets a certain need? Is it because the coaching staff is pessimistic about next year's rookie evaluation? Is Jack meeting the need or the best player? "This question was posed to general manager Dawson, because in this deal, Dawson sent Houston's first-round pick, and as we all know, this year will be a super rookie year.

This is the worst part of the deal that the Houston media and fans believe.

According to Houston's current record, this draft pick may not be lower than the top 20, and in this year's draft list, this term is likely to rob a future All-Star player.

Dawson replied: "We tend to get immediate combat power, and Jack is the best combat power. He is only 18 years old but he is already the MVP of the finals and an All-Star. Is it still doubtful that he will not be as good as next year? A guy we pick at a certain position? The needs of the team are constantly changing, and getting the best player means that he can continue to meet the needs of the team. This trade is successful!"

Dawson is quite proud, and his view of this transaction is different from most people.

Maybe it's because he made the deal.

At this meeting, although Dell Curry and Kendall Gill did not get so many questions, they also appeared.

The regrettable thing about Dell Curry is that he has been wearing the No. 30 jersey. But because of the conflict with Fan Xi, according to... the unspoken rule of "whoever is bigger has the priority".

He said at the press conference that he was very satisfied with his No. 1 jersey. He said: "My dream is to have a championship ring, so I choose No. 1."

He is very humorous.

Fan Xi had a long-standing friendship with him.

It's just that, at that time, Dell Curry was an 'high-altitude' NBA player, and Fan Xie was a high school student still in training camp. At that time, Dell Curry also said that he would teach Fan Xie to shoot, but he did not expect that after more than two years, he became the addition of Van Xie's three-way deal.

The fate of people is really unpredictable.

Another newcomer, Kendall Gill, is a silent guard compared to Dell Curry's sense of humor.

If today's NBA wants to select a player who "imitates Jordan the most", this 196 shooting guard will definitely top the list.

His physical fitness is very strong, he likes to block dunks, has top steals, and has both offense and defense.

However, his dribbling ability is embarrassing. Has some mid-range jumper ability over the years. However, because the high is not enough to be low, wandering around. According to the original history, this guy would wander around in many teams, then retired in 2005, then entered the professional boxing world, and knocked out his opponent in his first show.

What impressed Vanheede most about him was that when a reporter asked him how he viewed his position in the team, the cold and ruthless man said in short words: I can play point guard.

At that time, there was some laughter at the scene.

Obviously, everyone doesn't think so.

Because his ball-handling ability is not even as good as Larry Johnson, otherwise, how could Larry Johnson, the Hornets twin star, become famous and start a family, but he has been wandering all the time.

However, Fan Xie told him at the backstage of the press conference, I am very happy to be teammates with you, and I believe you can become a very good point guard.

Kendall Gill just nodded slightly.

Dell Curry came over and chatted enthusiastically with Fan Xie.

The press conference became a press conference for Houston's vision of the future. The team's record was very good at the beginning of the season, but with Olajuwon getting married and then fasting, plus Charles Barkley and Drexler's ball Overlapping rights.

The record has declined again like last season, and is currently fourth in the Western Conference.

Rudy Tomjanovich gave Fanhee a stack of thick tactical manuals when they parted, and he said that Fanhee could study these tactics seriously.

Even though Fan Xie was traded to Hugh City with reluctance and indifference, when he communicated with the coaches and players here. The mood became clear again.

Perhaps, here is more suitable for him than New York. Not only because the TV here did not report his various scandals at length, but also an important reason: both the head coach and the players showed a kind of high welcome...they needed themselves desperately.

And, this is an unprecedented challenge.

Vanheede will play with three ball-handling superstars, and will also have the burden of reconciling them.

This is something that has never happened in the Knicks. The big brothers of the Knicks don't like to play with the ball by themselves. The only one who likes to play with the ball is Charles Smith, who was traded away.

"Jack, here's the key to my neighbor's house."

When Charles Barkley heard that Fanhee was looking for a house, he handed Fanhee a key. "I just happened to rent it when I rented the house," he said.

Barkley is a big brother.

His temperament is very similar to Brother Gorilla and Oakley, they are both sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes.

It's just that Fan Xi doesn't understand why Oakley hates him so much, shouldn't they be sympathetic to each other?

It wasn't until the end of the first training session that Vanhee got into his Humvee and drove all the way to the residence when he heard Barkley chattering.

Barkley is a person with a great talent for language. He likes to make some metaphors that are wrong but can make you smile at the same time.

He said that Olajuwon is a bouncing cow on the court. When he spins, you can feel the white ball shaking, which makes you involuntarily distracted, and then you are passed by him.

He also commented on the fact that Olajuwon abandoned his wife who played in the WNBA and chose his current wife. "...It's so normal in the NBA. It's just that he was ten years late, and it took him ten years to convince himself with religious reasons. ?”

Fan Xi didn't answer.

Barkley doesn't need to answer either, he is a show by himself.

He then commented on Drexler, saying that Drexler was far from Jordan. And he also frantically complained about Drexler's decline in standards.

But in the end, he also asked Fan Xi to keep it secret so as not to affect the unity.

It can be seen that he really wants to win the championship.

Then, he evaluated the three most important opponents in the West: San Antonio Spurs, Utah Jazz and Seattle SuperSonics.

This season, the Rockets lost more than they won against these three strong teams.

Especially in the face of the fast-attacking Seattle Supersonics, the Supersonics always use long hands and long feet to tie up Olajuwon, making Olajuwon's performance miscalculated. At the same time... Gary Payton and Sean Kemp Under the leadership of the Supersonic, the rhythm is fast.

The Rockets couldn't handle it.

Barkley blamed Drexler on that, saying he wasn't able to defend the Sonics' shooter well on the outside.

He also said that the reason why the Rockets reached the Finals last season was because they did not encounter the Supersonics. When they encountered the Supersonics, it was Seattle that entered the Finals.

He is straightforward.

Don't treat Fan Xi as an outsider at all.

You know, this is almost the first long-term alone conversation between the two.

Doesn't the United States shy away from "communicating light and deep words" at all?

Then, Charles Barkley talked about the San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs traded away Dennis Rodman this season. After Popovich took over, a new attitude of unity broke out. The record is second only to the Sonics, and they played very well.

In the Texas Civil War, the Rockets have already scored 0:3 this season.

Barkley complained again and again. Anyway, he thinks that if the Rockets go on like this, let alone the championship, they may not even make it to the Western Conference Finals.

He is very uncomfortable.

All the way here, I wanted to create a big business, but before I left the west, I was shot several times.

Especially the Jazz led by Karl Malone and Stockton.

On this matter, he did not shy away from it.

He said it was his own fault.

Because he's been plagued by recurring back injuries this season, he's rarely bulldozing his big ass.

As for face-to-face singles, because of the loss of bounce, it is also quite difficult to play.

Barkley knew everything about Fanhee.

He analyzed it to Fan Xi, on the offensive end, I only have three moves in my life. A bitch turns over and jumps, steady as an old dog. A half-jumping hook with a right hand, and a step-in and wipe-out, have been playing for a lifetime.

This season, due to repeated injuries, half of his turnaround jump shots were abolished. Coupled with the discounted jumping ability, the next two moves only have 80% of the firepower.

In fact, it is also true.

Barkley's scoring average this season is the lowest in his career, only 15 points. There were 24 points last season.

When Barkley said that he had three tricks, Fan Xi always thought of Cheng Yaojin in Chinese history.

"You are a lucky general."

Fan Xi said to him: "You take care of your injuries. When the playoffs come, the team still needs you to wreak havoc in the paint."

Barkley nodded again and again. He said that I recently played a little game outside the three-point line.

Barkley has the ability to make three-pointers. Although it is not accurate, if you don't guard against it, you will definitely be injured.

After chatting with Barkley, Vanhee understood the current situation of the Rockets and the situation in the West.

Vanhee didn't pay much attention to the situation in the West before, because in the end, they only need to play the finals with the strongest team in the West.

Looking at it this way now, the west is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.

Moreover, the Rockets' ability to rank fourth in the Western Conference is indeed due to...strength.

Although there are three giants on the books.

However, it is not easy for the eldest brother to suddenly become old and handsome, to have a love affair with Sunset Red, and to eat vegetarian food for a period of time every year.

The second child, Drexler, in the words of Buckley...has lost a lot of hair, but he still doesn't cut his head. Isn't this self-inflicted?

Barkley believes that the decline in the ability of the glider is due to the surrender of the ball. Don't always occupy it, but also engage in the number of outside cores.

As for Barkley himself, he also objectively analyzed that his ability has indeed declined. He used to be from the Western faction, but now he is from the Eastern faction.
