Chapter 256 Rumors
The Rockets defeated the Blazers again at their home court. Let us recall what happened in the last 12.5 seconds.

The Rockets called the last timeout, which was specially reserved for such a hungry moment. Lewis looked at the Rockets players on the Rockets bench with a proud face.

Secretly proud in my heart, I make you proud, you, Uncle Lewis, defeated you with a single shot, what can you do, what chance do you have, why don't I believe that any miracle will happen to you Rockets? .

However, he was shocked very quickly. After the game continued, the Rockets were still so calm, as if they were in the lead. Lewis looked at the Rockets' calmness and felt contempt in his heart. What do you think you are pretending? , It's such a moment, I don't believe that you can't be nervous.

Maybe Lewis felt that he didn't delay anything, and his nerve response was still fast, but he was still distracted. Such a small distraction was keenly noticed by Bodi Loga. Horry, who was facing Lewis, suddenly Turning around and dodging Lewis' defense, Da Ben, who slipped out of the inside, blocked Lewis's footsteps with a lateral movement.

Horry appeared on Bodi Loga's passing route as accurately as a poisonous snake, took the basketball without any hesitation, turned around and shot.

With a sound of "swish", the sound of friction between the basketball and the net spread throughout the audience. With the same enthusiasm, at this moment, the Rockets fans can't wait to detonate the whole venue.

When the red light came on, the Rockets completed the lore.

How long has the Rockets been useless to experience a lore, and many people don't remember. They all forget that the Rockets are the best team in the league.

People have forgotten such lore kings as Horry, Ray Allen, Saulius, and Bodi Loga.

The one with the most complicated mood at this time was Rashad Lewis. Lewis, who was just 21 years old, could no longer bear such an atmosphere. At this moment, tears were already streaming from his eyes.

Seeing his little brother like this, Pippen, who was the oldest on the field, walked up and put his arms around Lewis's shoulders and said, "Rashad, boy, this is not the time to cry, I don't want the Rockets to see you. We Blazers players can't afford to lose, we can be beaten, but we can't be knocked down, understand? Come on, boy, stay strong."

Listening to Big Brother's comfort, Lewis still couldn't stop his tears. At this moment Ray Allen came up, Pippen looked at Ray Allen, and said vigilantly: "Ray, what do you want to do, you Don't insult my teammates in front of me."

Ray Allen shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, Scott, I'm not so bad. I came to exchange jerseys with this kid. He played well today, and he almost killed us in the end."

Pippen saw that Ray Allen had no hostility, so he pushed Lewis out of his arms. Lewis looked at Ray Allen in front of him, feeling sad for a while, but still held back his tears and took off his shirt. He went forward to exchange the jersey with Ray Allen, but the opponent's jersey, Ray Allen said in a low voice: "Boy, keep working hard. There are very few real pitchers in the league now. Let's work hard together." He bumped punches with Lewis, turned and left.

Lewis looked at Ray Allen who was going away, and secretly swore in his heart: I will definitely surpass you.

After the game, Lao Tang praised his players in a very high-profile manner at the press conference. Lao Tang said: "The Rockets players are a group of real professional players. They will do their best in every game. The Rockets The strength lies in the dedication and concentration of the Rockets players to the game."

After the game, the pressure on the Rockets players' hearts completely disappeared, and the Rockets players regained their strong self-confidence.

The team that swept the league is back.

The next rocket is already unstoppable, no matter who the opponent is.

The second opponent of the Rockets back at home is the Denver Nuggets. In fact, the current Denver team is not very weak. The head coach of the year, De Anthony, left after the end of the league. He went to Europe to see if he could learn from it. To something different from the NBA.

Denver's head coach this year is Dan Issel, and the Denver team also has Antonio McDyess, Van Exel, Ron Hayser, LaFrentz, George McLeod, James James? Posey and other good players, to be honest, if they use a good coach to integrate these together, then they will definitely appear in the playoffs.

However, it seems that Dan? Issel is not such a head coach. After the start of the game, the scattered Nuggets were not the opponents of the Rockets at all. The Rockets ran over their opponents like tanks.

When the game ended, the huge point difference between the two sides had stunned everyone, and the Rockets played a high score again at 133:92.

The team scored in double figures with 9 points. Such a result made the teams in the league shudder, but the only good news for other teams was when Garnett was injured.

When Garnett was fighting for a rebound, Keon Clark directly dragged him down in the air and sprained his ankle. Garnett was helped off the field in pain one day. The Nuggets thought their game would be better. .

But the Rockets, which had already started to go berserk, started a crazy massacre. When the game was over, all the Nuggets players had infinite contempt for Keon Clark, and they all thought in their hearts: You idiot, you must hurt your opponent. It's sick, who doesn't know that the Rockets are a well-known vicious dog in the league, whoever bites them, they will definitely press back.

Keon Clark left the Rockets' home court with infinite resentment, maybe he will use resentment when he returns here.

Fortunately, Muhammad's suspension has expired, and his return to the team, at least in terms of interior defense, did not lose anything, but he suffered a lot of losses in terms of offense.

Fortunately, Garnett will only miss 4 games, fully catching up with the Rockets and Lakers.

Just when people thought the Rockets were playing the Heat at home after losing Garnett, something happened.But many people's dreams were in vain, because what they saw was still the powerful rocket.

In this game, Dayao was the center forward, Ben was the power forward, and nothing else changed.

But it was such a change that completely detonated the offensive power of the Chinese kid. With the assistance of a player who is a rebounder and a king of defense, Dayao completely started his gorgeous performance.

Turn over jump shot, Mourning who has already made the shot is going to cry, really going to cry, I have never seen anything like this, I just bully you with my height and footsteps, plus a soft shot, one league after another unsolvable inside bug coming soon.

As for the power forward, Daben has completely become Yao Ming's patron saint. Daben's defense and rebounding make the Rockets run like an impregnable wall, and with the Chinese kid behind him, oh my god, how can people live with such an insider.

There is no doubt that the Rockets are powerful, but no one thought that the Rockets' inside line can still explode with such a strong combat power when the Rockets lack an absolute main force inside. This is no longer anyone can explain.

When the game was over, Mourning could only leave sadly, because such a Rocket was no longer what the Heat's current player configuration could deal with.

109:92
The Rockets defeated the Heat at their home court, and let the fortune tellers Riley and Mourning leave the Sky Arena sadly.

After the game, Lao Tang was in the locker room, and when he announced the day off, the Rockets players cheered. Looking at the cheering Rockets players, Lao Tang just hugged his shoulders and smiled and looked at the Rockets players, where Wanton frolic.

Just when Lao Tang was about to leave, Lao Tang received a call from Tiger. He was a little surprised that his boss called at this time, but Lao Tang adjusted his mood, answered the phone, and said, "Boss, hello, I'm Lu Dee."

Tiger said with a smile on the phone: "Rudy, I played very well in the recent game, and I am very satisfied."

Lao Tang also laughed, and then said: "Boss, if you think our game is good, don't just talk about it, the best reward is a salary increase."

Tiger grinned happily on the phone and said, "Okay, no problem, I'll give you a one-dollar salary increase tomorrow, what do you think?"

When Lao Tang heard this, he shook his head and said, "See, this is a capitalist. What a clever way to squeeze the surplus value of workers."

Tiger laughed and said: "Okay, okay, Rudy, don't be joking, I have a business to call you today, someone wants to trade with the Rockets."

Lao Tang was taken aback, and said, "That team."

Tiger said coldly: "The Lakers."

"Who is their bargaining chip?"

"big shark"

Lao Tang was stunned when he heard these three words. Lao Tang took a deep breath and said with some difficulty: "Who will the Lakers want?"

Tiger still said coldly: "They want Kevin, Dayao and Sboga."

When Lao Tang heard it, his breathing was a little short at that time, he thought about it repeatedly, and asked, "Boss, what's your opinion?"

Tiger smiled wryly and said, "Didn't I come to you because I couldn't make up my mind?"

Lao Tang said with some difficulty: "To be honest, I don't have any ideas." The two fell silent at the same time. After a while, Tiger seemed to calm down the ups and downs in his heart and said: "How about this, Rudy, you Come with Dawson tomorrow and we can discuss it."

Putting down the phone, Tiger got up and poured himself a glass of red wine, walked slowly to the window, and said in a low voice, "This is really a difficult question to decide."

All night, Tiger was calculating the gains and losses of this transaction in his mind. When Lao Tang and Dawson appeared in front of Tiger the next day, the three of them were startled, and then everyone came to their senses. , looked at each other and sat down with a wry smile.

Looking at the two people with the same panda eyes as himself, Tiger knew that neither of them had slept well. Looking at the appearance of the two, Tiger smiled wryly and said, "Hey, old Buzz gave us a break. A problem."

Lao Tang also said helplessly: "Yes, this is really a sweet trouble." Dawson also nodded empathetically.

Tiger continued: "Okay, let's not talk about anything else, now let's see how to make a decision on this matter." After speaking, he picked up a cup of coffee and drank it in one gulp.

Both Laotang and Dawson are very strange. Doesn't your boss like to drink tea?How did you drink the coffee? Tiger drank a cup of coffee in one breath, and when he looked down, he saw Dawson and Lao Tang looking at him strangely. Tiger immediately understood what was going on, and Tiger said: "Hey, isn't this Didn't you sleep much yesterday, drink some coffee to refresh yourself."

After the two of them came to a sudden, they also understood their boss's mood now, so they heard Tiger continue to say: "Come on, two, let's see what the deal proposed by the Lakers is like."

At this time, Tiger looked at his right-hand man expectantly, and very much hoped that the two of them could give him an answer.But these two disappointed him. Lao Tang and Dawson looked at each other, and finally Dawson said: "Boss, Rudy and I also thought about it all night. To be honest, I didn't sleep. We are also thinking about this." problem, but never solved it.”

Tiger looked at the two people very helplessly, and seemed to be full of sorrow for their answers. Old Tang and Dawson didn't dare to look directly at Tiger.

Tiger closed his eyes with some bitterness, and continued to think about this matter in his heart. The three of them sat for such a long time, but the coffee in their cups had been changed countless times by the secretaries.

Finally, about an hour later, Tiger slowly opened his eyes, looked at Lao Tang and Dawson with red blood in his eyes, and said a word coldly: "We will not change."

Lao Tang and Dawson were surprised when they heard Tiger's words. They thought the boss was ready to make an exchange, but they didn't expect him to directly veto it. Tiger could give up such a huge bait. There is no reason.The two were a little unclear about Tiger's thoughts, and Lao Tang hurriedly asked: "Boss, don't just block it like this, we can calculate it."

Tiger shook his head very resolutely, and said, "I've made up my mind, we won't change."

Lao Tang and Dawson looked at Tiger who firmly rejected the deal. Dawson finally asked the question in their hearts, and Dawson asked, "What is the reason?"

Tiger thought for a moment and said: "Actually, such a huge bait can be said to be delicious poison. Now O'Neal is absolutely in full swing. The 27-year-old O'Neal can rule the league for at least five years, but have you ever thought about it?" , After five years, when the Sharks are getting old, who can hold up the sky for the Rockets? This is a big question. I don’t know if you have noticed. There are fewer and fewer players. I can even assert that if the Sharks and Dayao retire, the pure centers in the entire league will no longer exist. I have already guessed the old Bass Intention, he is actually trading the present for the future. Looking at the ages of Kevin and Dayao, to be honest, as long as these two guys can continue to cooperate, then they will be the most troublesome one in the league. For the combination. In my opinion, Shark belongs to the present, while Kevin and Dayao belong to the future. Old Buss is attacking the Shark to cut off the future of the Rockets. His move is poisonous enough. "

Lao Tang and Dawson are also good people. After listening to Lao Tang's words, the two finally felt the pulse of Old Buss. A player who will be extremely brilliant in the future, Lao Tang nodded slowly and said: "You are very reasonable, boss, the current staffing of the Rockets is basically the airs of this year's championship, but if we change the Rockets If there are only two players, then this year's championship is a little bit hanging. The Blazers, Jazz, and Spurs will not let the Rockets go. Although we have obtained a strategic weapon, we have lost two future strategic weapons. And opinion is a tactical weapon that can be used now. This year, the Rockets can still win the championship relying on their own strong strength. After all, the strength is there. But next year, once next year, once the Lakers and Trail Blazers, plus a few teams in the East , They can completely start to subvert our dynasty, but without the future of us, I think our Rockets are likely to be short-lived."

Thinking that Lao Tang here has clearly grasped the psychology of Old Bass, Lao Tang continued: "Old Buzz's potential purpose is to deal with the Rockets."

There was a sneer at the corner of Tiger's mouth, and he said in a deep voice: "This old guy still wants to cause trouble for us. Actually, in my opinion, Garnett is enough to be worth a big shark. With the addition of Dayao, the cash cow, Sboga is also a powerful player. They can put together the best lineup in the shortest possible time. With Phil Jackson added, they can kill us this year. I won’t do such a stupid thing , wanting to use a big shark to shorten the time of the Rocket Dynasty, old Bass's idea is too good, good method, good strategy."

Speaking of this, Tiger told Dawson: "Dawson, since the Lakers don't have any good intentions, then let's not be polite. You can find someone to expose this matter. Remember to talk to Kevin and Dayao beforehand." Talk to Sboga and let them control their own speech, I must make the Lakers turn upside down at this time, dare to trip the Rockets, I want them to know how good I am."

Listening to Tagnason's cold words, Dawson felt chills in his heart, but he knew what kind of character the master in front of him was.

After nodding in agreement, Dawson and Lao Tang left Tiger's office on the day of the game between the Rockets and Timberwolves the next day.According to relevant sources, the Lakers submitted a trade application to the Rockets, and the bargaining chip for the trade was the 'big shark' O'Neal. The entire league was stunned, and almost all the media were reporting on this matter.

Shark, who had been kept in the dark, was irritated. He angrily went to question Lakers boss Old Buss.

The Rockets players who were involved in the transaction accepted the interview with a calm expression. In the interview, they first admitted that the incident was true, but before the transaction, the club had already greeted them and asked them opinion, they understand it.

Compared with the calm of the Rockets, the Lakers' side can be described as a storm, and when the Rockets spread the news that they would not make a deal, Old Buss felt that this time it could be said that he was stealing chickens and losing money.

 Beg, beg, the heavens are tired of begging, but they keep on begging.
