The yellow storm in the NBA

Chapter fifty-ninth, calm down after the hustle and bustle

The turmoil outside did not have much impact on Quan Xiao. He continued to live and train as before and prepare seriously for the next game, but more fans came to him for autographs.

Other members of the team also fully recognized him. Although Quan Xiao has shown his strength in previous training and pre-season games, it is not an official game after all, and there are still doubts about whether he can perform in official games.

After this game, all doubts disappeared. That’s how competitive sports are. Strength determines everything. If you have strength, you will be recognized by others. It’s that simple.

After this battle, the old players no longer asked him to help carry bags. Originally, because of Yao Ming, Quan Xiao was not teased by the old players in the team. At most, he just helped carry bags and run errands. Now he doesn't even do that.

The rookie even offered to help him carry his bag, but Quan Xiao decided to do it himself. This was probably a small way for him to unite his teammates!

Of course, Adidas is very happy to have such a strong performance in his first show. With their help, Quan Xiao's reputation has further increased, and the sales of the sneakers he endorses have also increased.

Domestically, Quan Xiao's fame has soared due to CCTV's live broadcast and follow-up reports. Among basketball players, he is second only to Yao Ming, and even surpasses Yi Jianlian, who had a certain fan base before.

The increase in fame also made many businesses take notice. Quan Xiao received many endorsement invitations for a while, and the prices offered were not low, but Quan Xiao rejected them all. He had no time to waste on this. The most important thing now is to take further steps.

Improve your strength and fully adapt to the rhythm of NBA games.

Quan Xiao also received some congratulatory calls and text messages, mostly from former college teammates and coaches, as well as classmates. In addition, there were several rookies in the same class, such as Yi Jianlian and Horford. Of course, in high school

There are also congratulatory messages from many classmates in my classmate QQ group.

Facing waves of praises, Quan Xiao was still very clear-headed and showed no signs of getting carried away. He knew very well that the first game was an unconventional game. On the one hand, it was because his touch was really good.

Teammates also gave strong support.

On the other hand, it is also because the opponent does not know enough about himself, and perhaps has a little contempt for the rookie. After all, in the eyes of the old Americans, no matter how powerful the yellow race is, it is just like that!

Quan Xiao currently positions himself as the team's second-in-command, the person who assists Yao Ming. The team's position for him is probably similar.

, this can be seen from the tactical level.

Yao Ming is currently the team's first choice for offense, and he also has unlimited firing rights. However, due to his position and physical strength, he can only take up to 20 shots in a game, and the average is about 20 times per game.

In the 2006-07 season, Yao Ming averaged 17.1 shots per game, second only to McGrady's 20.8 shots per game. In the last game, he took 18 shots, scored 11 goals and scored 28 points, which was within his normal range.

As the team's main point guard, Alston is not very good in terms of organization, but he takes a lot of shots.

Taking the 06-07 season as an example, he averaged 12.5 shots per game, shot 37.5% from the field and scored 13.3 points. He averaged only 5.4 assists per game, which was not as good as McGrady's average of 6.5 per game.

Of course, because of McGrady's presence, Alston's possession of the ball was not very high. Now that McGrady has left the team, Yao Ming plays the center position. Although he has unlimited firing rights, his possession of the ball is actually not high, so most of the time the ball is

In the hands of main point guard Alston.

In the last game, Alston served as the starting point guard and played 38.5 minutes. He scored 15 points on 6 of 14 shots from the field, but only sent 6 assists. Obviously, he did not do a good job in controlling the position.

A little bit above the average level.

Although Josh Smith has great physical fitness, he prefers mid-range and long-range shots. He takes about 13 or 4 shots in every game.

Comparing the number of shots taken by these two people, Quan Xiao feels that his average of about 17 shots per game is the most reasonable. This number of shots can reflect his team status and will not affect his teammates too much.

After the opening game, the coaching staff did design several tactics for Quan Xiao with him as the main focus. These tactics were all centered around Quan Xiao's three-pointers. Some of them let other players create shooting space for Quan Xiao, and some used Quan Xiao's three-pointers.

Xiao's shooting ability opens up space for his teammates.

In these tactics, Quan Xiao can choose to take action himself or pass it to his teammates according to the situation on the field, which can be regarded as giving him the right to choose freely to a certain extent.

After a day off on the 31st, they will go to Salt Lake City to challenge the Utah Jazz on November 1st. On the 3rd, they will return to Houston at home to face the challenge of the Portland Trail Blazers. There are only three games in the first week, which is not bad, but it requires

Constantly running around.

Compared to universities,

Both the density and intensity of games have been greatly improved. These are huge tests for rookies, and they are both physical and psychological tests.

But for Quan Xiao, these are not big problems. His physical fitness has always been very good and he has never performed at his full strength in college games.

As for the psychological level, as a reborn person, his maturity is far beyond what people of his age can match. After all, he has the life experience of the previous life and has been baptized by such bizarre events as rebirth. His psychological quality is definitely fresh, and there is no

What could easily make him panic?

After the training on the 31st, Quan Xiao invited the whole team to his home for a dinner. He fulfilled his words to Shane yesterday and cooked a sumptuous dinner himself. Quan Xiao's cooking skills in his previous life were very good. After his rebirth,

Although I rarely cook, my skills have not fallen behind.

Considering the dietary needs of athletes, we did not choose dishes heavy in oil and salt, but relatively light dishes. Such as stewed beef brisket with potatoes, sweet and sour pork ribs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, Dong'an chicken, steamed seabass, boiled shrimp, and stir-fried broccoli.

.Of course, there is also fried steak, which is specially prepared in case someone is not used to Chinese food.

But it was obvious that they were overthinking it. Everyone happily ate up all the food prepared by Quan Xiao. No one disliked Chinese food. Instead, they even clamored that Quan Xiao could hold more such dinners so that they could have the opportunity to eat more.

Several delicious Chinese meals.

Because there was a game the next day, everyone was relatively restrained. Everyone only drank a few cans of beer as a token of appreciation. The atmosphere of the entire dinner was relaxed yet warm, and everyone was very happy when they left.

The next day's "Houston Chronicle" also specifically reported on the Rockets' dinner party. The report said:

After playing an epic game, Quan Xiao invited all his teammates to his home to celebrate. It can be seen that the atmosphere of the Rockets is very good. Afterwards, we interviewed several team members and they all said that this dinner made them

I am very satisfied, Quan Xiao’s cooking skills are great, and I really hope to eat the dishes cooked by him again.

Ordinary people would probably be excited for a long time after playing a game like that. Celebrating with friends and nightclub beauties is indispensable, but Quan Xiao invited the whole team to have a dinner at home to celebrate and even cooked the food himself.

It's truly unique and unforgettable.

The article finally concluded: In such a good atmosphere, the Rockets may have a surprising performance this season, and let us wait and see!
