Super Basketball Manager

Chapter 285 Ron's Predicament

Looking at the team that he built with his own hands, being brutalized at home, Ron lost not only his dignity, but also his soul...

Best team manager?
The feeling is getting stronger and stronger, the championship, the glory, as Yao Ming fell to the ground with a crash...

All the work in the office has become so strange and tricky,

People are pointing at him behind his back, and the calls of various agents are enough to make him slam on the office door every day...

Maybe he frequently appeared on major media shows like a superstar...

——He is already a household name in Space City or perhaps in the entire United States...

He also rushes home in the early morning because of some meetings and some work, but leaves in a hurry before dawn...

This is his life, and it's not that she doesn't want to participate, but the method is to go to the Toyota Center every now and then to show up, pretending to smile in front of the media, there is no other way...

The saddest thing in the world may be called plans not keeping up with changes...

Maybe only he himself knows that his original plan was to enjoy their life after preparing for the playoffs, but human desires and ambitions made him forget a lot of promises he made when he lost and recovered...

...

For Ron's life, maybe the Rockets in the 09-10 season stopped in the first round, and he will always be the winner in life in the days to come. For a team that used to be at the bottom of the league, it is already a miracle to make it to the playoffs...

Destiny is a naughty ghost, it always loves to play tricks on people, it will make you gain a lot, and then indirectly make you lose other...

And "miracle" is like the butterfly effect, some things will be ruthlessly peeled off bit by bit...

For example, feelings, such as unbalanced scales...

...

Scarlett: Where are you going so late?
Ron: Get out.

Scarlett: With whom?

Ron: It's just business, it has nothing to do with you, okay?
Scarlett: Then what are you going to do later?
"Don't act like you care about me. Don't act like you want to know what I'm thinking! What else do you do besides watching those unnutritious TV series every day? You don't understand anything! You don't care about me at all! Don't ask any more!" He opened the door and slammed it away angrily...

Scarlett sobbed: Actually, I care.

...

You once said that when I stood at the crossroads, as long as I was with you, I wouldn't go through long nights to wait...

Now I am the only one standing here at the crossroads of fate...

To get your attention, I had to rebel against myself...

Look, I'm not so princess sick...

I also hope that I can speak in a tactful manner so as not to upset you. It is so difficult to speak to you...

I want to talk about my temper, my personality, it's not that bad...

In fact, I want to understand you better, not to hold on to you, I am just afraid that you will forget that someone loves you forever...

...

She likes to keep everything neat and clean, but he is very casual, throwing things around...

They had a fight, she ran away from home...

She thought: Going back this time, the house must have been messed up by him...

In fact, because he is used to it, the house is still neat and tidy as before...

When she called to say she was coming back...

He jumps up and makes a mess of the house...

She breathed a sigh of relief when she entered the home: "I knew the house would be like this."

He smiled and said, "So I can't live without you..."

...

"...If I tell you one day, I don't want to act anymore, I want to get married, I want to have children, I want to live a stable life...I...is it worth it for you to give up your hard-earned glory?"

"Huh?" He hesitated for a while, and in the few seconds of hesitation, she seemed to understand something instantly...

"Hehe... I was just kidding you..." She smiled brightly, snuggling into his arms, but her heart was bleeding...

...

Maybe when the balance is broken in the fairy tales of big stars and small employees, the color of the fairy tales will be dimmed; big stars and super basketball managers may be enviable under the glamor, but behind the glamor is the ruthless reality...

...

December 4th ...

The day before G3 in the Western Conference semifinals...

"No matter what, we must ensure Yao Ming's playing time and win this series..." Ron was uncharacteristically confident at the pre-match meeting, and people looked at him with surprise.

"The championship has always been my mantra. Of course, I can truly say to you now: this season! Yes! This season!"

After some impassioned and high-spirited words, there were actually whispers...

"Are you crazy? Didn't we agree on 'conservative treatment'? We have already achieved our set goal, so there seems to be no need to fight! What has to be done has already been done, and if you try to be brave, you will go against the sky! It will only make you come back more!" Qing Itachi, who has been promoted to the team doctor, suppressed it for a long time before saying...

"Luo... don't rush for quick success..." Olajuwon also murmured.

"... Put away your magic stick theory! I only know that we have to rely on our own efforts to do anything! (Glanced at A Weng beside him, looking very calm) Four days!" He stretched out four fingers, "Our established goal is to grab a victory from the Holy City..."

There was silence all around...

"Come on... I think even if Dayao is forced to play, he may not be able to fight against the old Spurs..."

Someone complained, which made Ron very angry.

"What does it mean to be able to fight?" Ron roared angrily, "The reason why the boss gave you money is to support a bunch of idiots who gave up before the game without even playing?"

"Let me tell you! Every game, you have to go home and play as if you don't win. What does it mean to have completed the 'established goal'? Who told you that everything is OK if you reach the semi-finals? Let me tell you clearly, I will not sign any player's contract renewal, anyone's promotion or salary increase report! If you can't win the championship, fuck off! I will immediately start rebuilding mode! What the hell! Shit!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ron just said a word, and walked away without looking back, causing an uproar in the surrounding...

...

The predicament is not enough to make the Rockets sit still like they did more than ten years ago. As long as Yao Ming is still standing there, Ron will not give up his efforts.

When Tracy McGrady left New York in January this year, the Rockets faced a huge crisis that they hadn't encountered in many years: Yao Ming's return date was undecided, and Houston couldn't even find a flag leader.

And Ron's "finding a substitute" game began: two second-year rookies had their eyes on it first-Mayo had a fierce cut, superb shooting skills, and a passing skill that was very similar to McGrady back then; Dragic replaced Artest who left and became the number one unreasonable shooter in the gentle version of Houston.

Then abolish Ariza's absolute shot rights, and force him into a blue-collar 3D (3 points and defense) player like Battier...

Then get Tyson Chandler, with or without Yao Ming, he is a rocket card killer in the penalty area.

Then Scola continued his fate as a white version of Yao Ming, playing two and a half quarters a game and becoming the Rockets' third leading scorer and second rebounder...

Add Nick Young, and he's as convulsive as Van Wever...

Everything about the Rockets doesn't seem to have changed, it's just that they've shrunk a size and become the poor man's version of the past.

It's just that after Yao's core came back, he took on more offensive tasks-setting a new high in points per game since the Van Gundy era.

——Barkley exclaimed at the time, "Ron directly put the Rockets in the ranks of the championship..."

Mayo and Dragic are the future of the Rockets.They may not be able to reach the height of McGrady and Artest, but they can complete the classic backcourt combination in pieces, just like Artest, Xiao Heidou, and Scola worked together to carry the Rockets and the Lakers in the last 09 games without Yao in 5, and then continue to squeeze Yao Ming's remaining value.

This is the future we can look forward to for the Rockets: Yao Ming's iron camp exists, the surrounding soldiers change like flowing water, and the defense is always as solid as a mountain.

For Houston, the only good news in the fall of 2010 is that the young backcourt has a chance to hone, and Kyle Lowry joins the ranks of star point guards; and Iverson’s almost free price makes the Houston people excited. Don't underestimate the heart of a championship" (1996, Big Dream - Olajuwon) was born.

...

"Ron..." Olajuwon shook his head helplessly... "Does he really believe Tomjanovich's nonsense?"

"Maybe it's really not a good thing to win the 'Best Team Manager' in the first year~~~" Only Qing Itachi smiled bitterly...

　"...If I tell you one day, I don't want to act anymore, I want to get married, I want to have children, I want to live a stable life...I...is it worth it for you to give up your hard-earned glory?"
