The Los Angeles Times continued to taunt the opposing team before the game. Bundan wrote in a skeptical tone: "The Rockets understand that there is no championship without stars, so in desperation, Houston can only press the treasure on Rudy. Guy. But can this young star, who averages less than 20+5+5 per game, be able to bear the high expectations of fans and even the team's top management? If the answer is 'yes', then why was he abandoned by his parent team? ”

The so-called scolding does not expose the shortcomings, but this da. Bundan curses and exposes shortcomings everywhere, no wonder he will get lost and abandon the Lakers into the arms of the Clippers, it is really the fox of the Clippers who smells like him, and the relationship between the two is getting better and better, which is an excellent example of like like gathering.

The Rockets are trading to come to Marco. After Jaric and Milicic, they immediately cut the two-meter-tall point guard in front of them, and the Rockets saved $1.3 million for this. Mirisic's contract is in the final year, and the Rockets plan to trade if they can, and if they can't, they will keep it for next year to clear the space.

After the trade, Houston's interior line is still strong, Mirisic doesn't say, Uncle Mu has rarely played, and Yao Ming's substitute has become Hayes, who is 198cm tall. However, after sending off Battier and Ariza, the once strong outside line was a little understaffed. However, Adelman does not plan to go to the Development League to find a temporary defender to deal with the emergency, but plans to add Kyle. Lowry's playing time, which the Rockets will spend playing at two point guards after the trade.

Yao Ming's individual tally has dropped this season, mainly due to Adelman's reduced playing time.

Last season, Adelman was a little prejudiced against Yao Ming, but got along with him after one season. Yao Ming's humble character. Adelman's exemplary work ethic is something that Adelman likes more and more. This season he is no longer ruthless with the little giants. Yao Ming can only play an average of 30 minutes per game this season, contributing 16.9 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists.

The Rockets' three interior lines, Yao Ming, Scola, David. Lee divided 96 minutes of playing time, and the highest playing time was David Lee. Lee has averaged 35 minutes per game this season. can contribute 19.1 points and 8.5 rebounds, and the number is already close to Yao Ming.

Dunleavy Sr. emphasized in the locker room before the game: "The Rockets have the third-highest interior scoring team in the league this season, their interior defense is not too strong, but the interior offensive ability is extremely good, and today Fox and Panda have to find ways to defend our interior line." ”

When the two heard this, they immediately said that there was no problem. They know that when Dunleavy Sr. said this, it means that the team's outside line will not provide them with much help today, and the Rockets' outside breakthrough ability is also among the best among the league's thirty teams, Marbury, Lowry, and now Rudy. Guy. This team's outside killing ability is not inferior to their inside, although the Rockets are only ranked 6th in the team power list. But they are not much worse than the top five teams and are clearly underrated.

"Don't worry too much, the Rockets guard group is generally prone to conceding balls, and the 14 percent turnover rate is one of the highest in the league. On top of that, their ability to rush for offensive rebounds is also average, and they often bizarrely lose backcourt rebounds, and we have to hit the Rockets on these points. In the end, they were slow to get into the groove in the first quarter, and the tradition of dropping the chain in the fourth quarter is still maintained, and we have to seize the opportunity in these two periods, do you understand? ”

As soon as the elder Dunleavy's voice fell, the Clippers players said that they would definitely launch an offensive after the opening game, and strive to defeat the Rockets as soon as they came up and get enough leads.

Before the player came out, Ji Guoqiu quietly stabbed the fox to death, and on the LCD TV in the locker room, Emma. Watson got a five-second close-up, and Ji Guosha was tragic today.

"Tragic fart! Calm down, the stinky girl will stay in the country for ten days, can she fly over and eat me immediately? ”

Ji Guosha has been living a chic life lately, Taylor. Swift was kicked to China by him, and after a circle, it would take at least ten days and eight days to come back. If you add the time of flying back and forth, it will take almost two weeks to return to the United States, and now he is the eldest in the family, and the next two weeks will be.

Ji Guoqiu snorted in his heart: "Big fart, just seeing you running to Little Hermione's house these days, you still don't get too proud, be careful, don't be photographed by the paparazzi." ”

Ji Guoyan snorted, and said in his heart: "Crow's mouth, you still need to say that Lao Tzu's anti-investigation technology is about to fight with the police dog, you can put a hundred hearts." ”

Clippers' start of the day: Chauncey. Billups, Aron. Afflaro, Grant. Hill, Ji Guosha, Ji Guoqiu.

Rockets starting lineup: Stephen. Marbury, Deng Tai. Jones, Rudy. Gay, Louis. Scola, Yao Ming.

On the defensive end today, the Clippers adopted the tactic of forcing Guy to play alone, which was to see that Guy had just come to the Rockets and had no tacit understanding with his new teammates, so they took the initiative to let him out and fight alone.

Rudy. Since Guy entered the NBA for three seasons, his style of play has been based on 1v1, a typical team battle scum player. The key is that his 1v1 ability is not at the level of Anthony, Wade, and Iverson, and it is difficult to kill the opponent by himself.

However, one thing should be noted, although Guy is not good at staying power, this kid has a strong ability to play key balls, which is also an alternative.

The two brothers chatted with Yao Ming before the game, and now the prospects of domestic players in the NBA are getting bleaker and darker, Yao Ming is getting old, but Yi Jianlian has not played for a long time, Sun Yue has been sent by the Lakers, and he can't stay in the NBA for long. Looking at the country, the so-called potential newcomers are all centers over 210cm, which really makes fans who love basketball feel sad.

The inability to train guard players shows that the domestic physique in this area is still very backward, and can only use the most primitive methods to discover talents, and in the long run, domestic basketball will not be much better than football.

Those wild ball uncles on the street court, all have a unique skill, and their passion for basketball is even more than that of most professional players, if these uncles have received formal training since childhood, who knows if they will become China's version of Nash, Parker, and Ginobili?

But it's a pity that they don't have a height of more than 210cm. Domestic basketball coaches will only find seedlings who are "superior" at a young age. When the uncles were young, they couldn't meet middle and high school coaches who could discern talents. So no matter how talented they are, they are destined to be buried.

The Clippers continued to maintain their dominance on the jump ball, and Ji Guoqiu started the game with a three-pointer after pulling down from beyond the three-point line on his first offense.

The Rockets offense, Marbury and Yao Ming's blocking made the Clippers have to shrink the defense, and the Rockets got a chance on the outside. Guy received the basketball and hit a shot from the outside.

"Boy. I've heard that they don't welcome you very much, so be careful, next time you lose it, you'll be miserable. ”

Ji Guosha came over and launched the most vicious trash talk, and he was so engaged in it, it is conceivable that Rudy. How much psychological pressure Guy will have the next time he shoots.

Rockets player vs. Rudy. Guy really didn't have a cold, of course, it wasn't Yao Ming who told him, but he heard it from the news reports. It is said that the Rockets are unhappy with the team's trade of Battier, Ariza, and Brooks for Gay. Especially Battier is very popular in the Rockets, and Marbury and Yao Ming are not very happy about it.

Rudy. Guy came to report from Team Rocket. I also feel the cold attitude of my new teammates, if he can't improve the Rockets' perception of himself with his excellent performance, this coldness will become more and more obvious, Ji Guoyi's words directly hit the key point of this guy.

In fact, this kind of thing is very common in the NBA, when the Rockets exchanged Maddie for Maddie with Boss Buddha and Old Cat, and many Rockets fans resisted Maddie at first. The scene of rookie Yao Ming being bullied and Francis drawing a knife made domestic Rocket fans very dissatisfied with this deal, and it was not until Maddie's 35-second miracle happened that this voice was quieter.

Not to mention the basketball court, even on the football field, when Zidane, Da Luo and others just came to Real Madrid, many Real Madrid fans were also skeptical, but these superstars without exception proved themselves with their excellent performances and were affirmed by the fans.

Rudy. Guy was going to do the same, but Ji Guoyi's trash talk made Guy unable to calm down.

However, the more he cared and nervous, the more he couldn't shoot the basketball.

At 10:02 in the first quarter, as soon as the Clippers came up, they hit the Rockets 6:0 in less than two minutes. Guy missed three shots, Yao Ming was caught by the two brothers and broke the ball, Adelman saw that the situation was not good, and decisively called a timeout.

The game went into a timeout, and Jeff. Van Gundy discussed this season's Defensive Player of the Year, "The two brothers are still dominating the interior this year, but so is the monster in the East, and he's done it alone, so he's going to be the favorite to be the best defensive player this year." ”

When the guest Olajuwon heard this, he said: "Everyone knows that there are two hoops on the court. Howard used to be famous in the basketball world, and the offense alone has never been the best, but coupled with the appearance of the defensive end, it is enough to lead the group. yes, I worked with him last year, if you ask me what level is Howard? I'll answer with a no-lie number, the Magic went from the 2007-08 season to the top 5 in defensive efficiency and have been in the top three in the league ever since, and Howard is their anchor.

Olajuwon was very optimistic about Howard, and continued: "Think about who Howard's players are, Nelson, Turkglou, Lewis...... These people are either short and short-handed, or their physical fitness is mediocre, and none of them are strong enough to play the trump card, and they can't even defend without Warcraft. Big Van Gundy is a good soldier, but Howard's ability to balance basket defense and blocking is the foundation. Now that a lot of new interior defenses have been blown into the sky, let them lead the Magic Club to what Cheng dù? ”

Mark. Jackson also said: "With the improvement of the rules in the NBA, the requirements for pick-and-roll defense are getting higher and higher, and it has become a common problem for big centers to be trapped on the defensive end. In fact, both O'Neill and Yao Ming have experienced this kind of trouble, but Howard is not afraid of it, because his mobility is at the level of a swingman. Of course, the same is true of the two brothers, they are the internal benchmark of the new generation of the alliance, there is a saying in the Chinese that 'the times make heroes', and now it is so, the new rules give birth to new superstars, they are the heroes of the new generation. ”

These people did not mention Yao Ming, because Yao Ming's figure and technique are simply a product of the last century, and the concept of being ten or even twenty years behind in China has cultivated Yao Ming into a center forward in the 90s from the beginning, and Van Gundy is an old-school coach who continues to push Yao Ming further and further on the fork in the road of the new era.

Look at the inside line at the same time as Yao Ming, there are players like Bosh, Stoudemire, and Howard, in fact, Howard is also one of the old ideas, because his coach is also called Van Gundy.

The game restarted, and Ji Guoqiu returned to the field to hit a long-range shot again, using his maneuverability to fly Yao Ming's kite.

Yao Ming's pace began to decline this season, and the embodiment on the court was that the pace was even slower. To be honest, he was already as slow as a cow, but now he is starting to become a snail, Da Z has degraded step by step back then, Yao Ming, the highest player in the league, thinks that he will soon move closer to him.

The Clippers chose to focus on Brother Panda on the offensive end, which was unexpected, but it was normal to think about it carefully, Yao Ming really couldn't prevent a center like Ji Guoqiu whose shooting range extended beyond the three-point line.

Ji Guoqiu only practiced the top three points of the arc this season, and the three points on the two wings were almost not practiced, although the training effect of the fox brother would not bring him any more bonuses, but it was strange that the 45-degree three-point shot he practiced last season did not regress, but maintained a level that was not up or down.

This is interesting, which means that Brother Panda does not need to train for three points in these two positions, and still has a shooting rate of about 36%, which is his three-point shooting rate at two 45-degree angles last season, not high or low, but if no one defends, the shooting rate can naturally rise again, enough to kill the rockets.

In the first quarter, Ji Guoqiu hit 3 three-pointers from the outside, and it wasn't until the Rockets replaced Yao Ming that he slightly controlled Brother Panda.

Yao Ming has a bad feeling, he is always caught in the bag on the inside, but Rudy on the outside. Guy only shot 2-of-7 in the first quarter, including 0-of-3 three-pointers, much to the dissatisfaction of the Rockets. The pot behind the team, of course, is only Guy to carry.

The score was 25:23, but the Clippers' lead was not much, Marbury scored 7 points in a single quarter, and Scola scored 10 points in the first quarter.

The two brothers sat on the court, and Ji Guoqiu smiled: "The Rockets have really strengthened a lot this season, Guy didn't play well today, and the Rockets didn't lag behind much, and they can score more than us now." ”

Ji Guoyi saw David. Li attacked McDyce and shook his head: "McDyce has too many old injuries, he has shoulder and back injuries, these injuries are recurring old injuries, and they will attack whenever there is physical contact, I think he no longer has the body to play professional basketball." I heard that his shoulders and back would ache every morning when he woke up, which was actually quite pitiful. ”

Many of the NBA veterans are like McDyce, and the wear and tear and injuries accumulated in the joints of the body over the years, the cartilage, periosteum, etc., may have long been worn out. After these players retire, they are likely to have joint pain all over their bodies at the age of forty or fifty, and once these old injuries occur, the players have to undergo joint replacement surgery, and finally end up with McHale, the general manager of the Timberwolves.
