I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 135 Post-match interview
At the end of the first two quarters, the two teams returned to the locker room to rest.

The Rockets are far ahead, and most of the faces are beaming.

Dorsey, Brooks, and Landry were even bragging about each other commercially. For a while, the locker room was very lively.

Even Novak, who is usually unsmiling, had a smile that he couldn't hide because he made a super long three-pointer at the last moment.

However, some are happy and some are sad, but the two starting players, McGrady and Thomas, are full of class struggle and gloomy.

Perhaps it was because the rookies were too noisy, which touched McGrady's nerves. He stood up abruptly and threw the towel around his neck on the stool.

"We beat like shit!" McGrady exhaled fragrantly, and strode out of the locker room to get some air.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, Landry jumped up, imitating McGrady's tone exaggeratedly and shouting:
"We beat like shit! Us? He called us! He was like shit!"

Landry's vocals were so vivid that the little brothers were laughing and laughing.

The rest of the people looked a little embarrassed, and they had to tense up when they wanted to laugh, looking very hard.

Only Dayao's face sank like water, and his eyebrows were twisted into the word Chuan.

"Enough! McGrady is not in good shape now, everyone has to give him more support!"

Adelman reprimanded.

Several young people secretly stuck out their tongues.

Such a thing would never have happened in the Van Gundy era.

Whether it's McGrady's tantrums, or Landry and others openly teasing his teammates, Fan Tuo will regard him as a challenge to his authority and will definitely attack with an iron fist.

But Adelman is different. His style is to rule by doing nothing. He can never speak without speaking, so the atmosphere in the team is very relaxed.

The styles of these two coaches are like two ends of a magnetic pole, mutually exclusive and diametrically opposed.

Today, it is not easy for Adelman to stand up and speak out.It also shows that everyone is really a little too much.

Yao Ming also said: "Please be more tolerant to Tracy and give him more time. He is the most talented player in our team and also determines the height of our team's ceiling. From the second half, we will give him The biggest support, even the whole preseason to help him get back to form is worth it!"

Now Dayao is the leader of the team.In a way, his words are better than Adelman's.

Second half of the game.

The Rockets resolutely implemented the spirit of Adelman and Yao Ming's instructions.

The whole team is serving McGrady.

Not only shifted the focus of offense from the inside to the outside, kept feeding McGrady the ball, let him fire unlimitedly as he wanted, so as to adjust his touch; on the defensive end, he also kept filling for him, helping him in defense, and giving him the most support.

But McGrady's condition is really not good.

Although he has obtained unlimited fire rights, his hit rate is pitifully low.

Bang bang bang bang, all kinds of iron strikes echoed over the Toyota Center arena.

Although his teammates fully supported McGrady, he himself didn't appreciate it very much, and even felt a little disgusted deep in his heart.

He is so proud and arrogant that he doesn't like the feeling of being regarded as weak and needing sympathy!
who is he?He's Tracy McGrady!It's the four shooting guards!Is the superstar everyone looks up to!
It was the man who moved God to tears in 35 seconds and 13 minutes!
Now I need to be sympathized and helped by a group of role players. This feeling is more uncomfortable than being scored on the head by the opponent's unknown pawns!
In McGrady's sleepy eyes, this is tantamount to naked humiliation!

His mentality became more and more unbalanced. The more he played, the more depressed he became.

McGrady was unhappy playing on the field, but the full man didn't know the hungry man was hungry. Off the court, there were guys who were more unhappy than him, scratching their heads anxiously to be able to play.

That's right, it's Joey Dorsey!
After establishing a policy with the primary goal of helping McGrady recover, Dorsey was hidden again.

In the third quarter, Dorsey only got the chance to play in the last two and a half minutes.

In the fourth quarter, as the game entered garbage time, Dorsey played a little more time, playing 4 minutes and 25 seconds.

Although his playing time is limited, his desire to perform is very strong.He grabbed 5 rebounds and scored 2 points and 1 assist.

Of course, if McGrady can be more accurate, Dorsey's assists can increase by at least 2 or 3.

At the end of the game, the Rockets beat the Grizzlies 88:72.

Yao Ming played 28 minutes and scored 15 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocked shots.

McGrady played 24 minutes and scored 12 points and 3 assists.

多西上场8分钟，得到4分1助攻5篮板1盖帽。

For such efficiency, Dorsey felt a little proud.

Although I only scored 4 points, I only made 3 shots. If I can get 19 shots like McGrady, that would be great!
When passing through the player channel, Dorsey saw his old acquaintance Jonathan Fagan waiting for him with a smile.

"HI, Jonathan, do you want to give me an exclusive interview?" Dorsey joked.

"It's a bit early for the interview, but I'm waiting for you here just for the post-match interview!"

Dorsey was surprised, he was just joking.After all, this is the first preseason game. Shouldn't the media focus on superstars like Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady?No matter how bad it is, it should be Ci Shiping, the new aid. How could he come here to interview such a rookie and fringe person like himself?
"Why always me?" Puzzled, Dorsey uttered the classic soul torture of the later Bashen.

"Because of what you said, the fans like to watch it!" Fagan replied.

"Am I so popular? Could it be that I have conquered the fans with my super charisma and become the most popular Rockets player!" Dorsey was extremely surprised.

Feigen shook his head solemnly and said: "No, you think too much! It's just because you like to talk big. Compared with serious official speeches, who doesn't like talk!"

"..." Dorsey was speechless.

Nima, why don't you be so frank, I'm really shocked...

"Okay, so the first question, how many points do you give yourself in this game?"

Dorsey pondered for a while, "60 points!"

?

Feigen was very surprised. Based on what he knew about Dorsey, it was impossible for this guy to be so humble!

"Why? What do you think is not up to the standard?"

"No, Jonathan, you misunderstood. The 40 points deducted are not my problem. I think I can play 100 points in my personal performance! The 40 points deducted refer to 40 minutes, which I sat on the bench. time!"

Fagan: "..."

Well, Joey Dorsey is still the talkative boy, nothing has changed.
