The yellow storm in the NBA

Chapter sixty-four, a difficult victory

"How's it going, Brother Yao, can you still keep up with your physical strength?" Quan Xiao asked worriedly, looking at Yao Ming sitting aside and breathing heavily.

In the third quarter, Yao Ming played hard for 10 points, sparing no effort on both offense and defense. Otherwise, the Rockets would have been defeated by the Mavericks. But even with Yao Ming working so hard, the Mavericks still overtook the score.

, this is undoubtedly a bad signal for the Rockets.

"It's okay, I can still withstand it, we must win this game!" Yao Ming said dullly after taking a sip of sports drink.

"If it really doesn't work, you can just rest down there and I'll take care of it first. If we really lose this game, we'll lose. Anyway, the season is still long. We don't have to care too much about the outcome of one or two games.

Relatively speaking, your health is the most important thing. Whether it is for the team or the national team."

Yao Ming was obviously stunned for a moment. Maybe he didn't expect Quan Xiao to say such a thing. He was inexplicably moved and relieved. He knew his physical condition better than anyone else, and he also knew that he had beaten

There were too many games, but he couldn't refuse.

His character determines that as long as the team needs him, even if he is slightly injured, he will not easily step into the firing line. Even in some inconsequential commercial competitions of the national team, as long as he is called, he will participate without hesitation, even if

It's dragging a tired body.

"I know, don't worry, I can still hold on!"

"Okay then! Take a rest when you're really tired and trust your teammates." Seeing that Yao Ming didn't seem to take what he just said too seriously, Quan Xiao decided to persuade him again, "I will help you share the burden in the future. You won't have to worry about it anymore."

It's a person fighting alone. Only if you stay healthy can we go further. This is true for the Rockets and the same is true for the national team at the Beijing Olympics next year."

After listening to these words, Yao Ming was a little moved. Looking at the sincere eyes of his little brother, it was at this moment that Yao Ming really began to pay attention to the issues mentioned by Quan Xiao.

"You're right, then the burden on your shoulders will be even heavier in the future!" Yao Ming smiled. At this moment, he felt that he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. It turns out that it feels wonderful to have someone share the burden!

"But before that, I need you to prove to me that you can shoulder this important task. Let's start by winning the Mavericks. How can we do it?"

"certainly!"

There is not much language, just these two crisp words, but in Yao Ming's view, these two words are the best response to him.

In fact, even before the start of the season, when the team first started training together, Quan Xiao's strength had been recognized by Yao Ming. His performance in the preseason made him feel relieved. He did not expect that after the start of the season, Quan Xiao would give

He brought an even bigger surprise. He was happy for Quan Xiao from the bottom of his heart for the strength he showed.

As for the outside

He didn't pay attention to the rumors in the world that Quan Xiao would take away his team's core position. What he cared about was never the team's core position. What he pursued from beginning to end was honor.

Therefore, the more powerful Quan Xiao shows, the happier he will be, because it means that he has a better chance of winning the final championship. As for whether Quan Xiao will be established as a new player by the team because Quan Xiao is too powerful.

At the core, he has never considered this kind of problem.

He has this kind of confidence. With his current strength, he will be regarded as the core of any team he goes to, so he has never worried about his team status.

What's more, Quan Xiao is still Chinese. The stronger he is, the more likely the Chinese men's basketball team will achieve better results in next year's Olympics. In his mind, the national team is much more important than the Rockets, and the results in the Olympics are better than those in the NBA.

Grades are much more important.

"Coach, I feel a little tired. Can you let me rest for a few minutes before playing?" Before the start of the fourth quarter, Yao Ming suddenly asked Adelman.

Aardman was a little dazed, but he quickly came to his senses and rearranged the arrangement, replacing Yao Ming with Mutombo. After all the arrangements, he asked:

"Yao, are you feeling well? Are you injured?"

"I'm fine, coach. I'm not injured. I just feel a little tired and may not be able to show my strength. Just rest for a few minutes and then fight them in the final few minutes."

"As long as your body is fine, don't take this game too seriously. It's just a regular season, and the season is still very long." Aardman breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Yao Ming was not injured.

At this time, the two teams were playing back and forth. If you score a goal, I will give you a goal immediately. If you shoot a three-pointer, I will give you a dunk. The Mavericks are still more blossoming, and the Rockets

The team was more interested in watching Quan Xiao's performance. Even if he didn't have the ball in his hands, the Mavericks didn't dare to relax their defense on him.

When Battier received a pass from Quan Xiao and scored a three-pointer, the Rockets finally chased the score to only 2 points, a goal difference.

"Brothers, let us defend this goal, defend this goal, and the final victory will be ours!" Battier shouted to his teammates after making the three-pointer.

"Attack! Attack! Step on those Texas cockroaches!" the Mavericks kept shouting at the home fans.

Although the Rockets tried their best to defend, Nowitzki still used his unique golden rooster to throw the ball in independently, helping the Mavericks to open the score to 4 points again. And he was very excited after scoring this goal.

They shook their fists in celebration. At this point, everyone wanted to win and no one wanted to be the final loser.

Yao Ming sat on the sidelines and watched the game nervously. At this time, the fourth quarter of the game had gone on for more than 4 minutes. Although the Rockets did not tie the score, they even

They took the lead, but they did not allow the Mavericks to continue to expand the score.

This result is acceptable to the Rockets or himself. As long as his teammates on the court persist for two more minutes and the point difference remains unchanged after two minutes, he will then go on the court for the final decisive battle with the Mavericks.

Quan Xiao missed the shot, and Uncle Mu tried his best to grab the offensive rebound. He passed the ball to Scola, who succeeded in a mid-range jumper and once again chased the score to two points.

But in the next offensive round of the Mavericks, with the cheers of the entire audience, Jason Terry, nicknamed the Jet, actually scored a three-pointer against Battier's defense, bringing the atmosphere at home to a climax.

"Don't worry, let's return it. It's just an ordinary three-pointer." Quan Xiao encouraged his teammates.

True to his word, Quan Xiao responded with a three-pointer under Howard's defense, which immediately halted the Mavericks' momentum.

In the next round, the Mavericks' offense was stopped by Uncle Mu with a hot pot. After delivering the hot pot, Uncle Mu made his signature finger-wagging gesture. At this time, there were only more than 5 minutes left in the game.

With the ball dead, the Rockets finally replaced Yao Ming.

However, the Rockets did not replace Quan Xiao. Obviously, the Rockets planned to fight for victory in these 5 minutes. Therefore, they fielded the strongest lineup in theory, even though Quan Xiao had already played for more than 30 minutes and was no longer so full of physical energy.

But his shooting ability can help his teammates open up space and create opportunities.

Yao Ming's appearance greatly reduced the defensive pressure faced by Quan Xiao, as did other teammates, especially Scala at position 4, which allowed him to seize the opportunity to sneak attack the Mavericks twice.

When there were only 35 seconds left in the game, the Rockets finally took the lead by one point when Yao Ming succeeded. The Mavericks requested a timeout, and immediately after returning, Nowitzki made another three-pointer to take the lead.

The game has reached such an anxious level that the players of both teams are very exhausted and under great psychological pressure. People with poor mental quality may not dare to play at this moment, but they are professional players after all, and they have this ability to withstand pressure.

There are still some.

As a man of two generations, Quan Xiao's psychological quality is naturally excellent, and he can even be called a big-hearted player. Therefore, this situation did not have any impact on him. With the last 5 seconds left in the game, he faced

The Mavericks' double-team defense resulted in a successful shot from beyond the three-point line.

When the ball passed through the Mavericks' net, the noisy American Airlines Center fell silent for a moment. The Rockets' bench players jumped to their feet on the bench, and the coaching staff also embraced and celebrated.

There were 5 seconds left on the clock, and theoretically the Mavericks still had a chance to win. Unfortunately, Jason Terry's three-point shot was destroyed by Quan Xiao, and the Rockets won the game with difficulty!
