Chapter 165 Returning to Houston

It is quite now!
The local big screen directly showed the data of the second quarter of the game between the Rockets and the Cavaliers. The arena, which was still noisy, fell into a brief silence at that time.

All the fans looked at the big screen with complicated expressions. The dazzling 38:22 caused pain in the hearts of countless fans who love the Cavaliers.

once Upon a time.

When the Cavaliers had James, this team was a serious Eastern powerhouse.

But now?

Ever since James continued to travel east and chose to join the Miami Heat, the state of the Cavaliers has taken a sharp turn for the worse, falling directly from the tyrannical power of the year to the current fish belly.

What happened to the team?
Their configuration is not very bad ah?

All the fans were thinking this in confusion, but the fact is that their home team is no longer the shine it used to be.

Sudden.

It wasn't just which fan started to shout first, and then the entire arena roared with the roar of "Byron Scott dismissed get out of class!"

Irony?
Very ironic, okay?

The team performed poorly, and they actually threw the blame on the head coach. After all, Byron Scott is also a well-known coach who led the Nets to create a brilliant future, okay?

But the NBA is so realistic.

Especially the fans who participated in supporting the home team, although they have players they don't like, but as long as the team's record is not as good, then they bear the brunt of it and have to scold the coach.

Or else vent their anger on the team management.

all in all.

Love it and hate it, even if they don't like the player, this is the child they watched "grow up".

When the two teams returned to the locker room, the atmosphere was quite different as expected.

Here's the Cavaliers.

Byron Scott, who has always been known for his sternness, seems to have lost his passion for this team. He just explained some things that should be paid attention to, how to play in the second half, and then returned to the lounge a little coldly. The more silent players are left alone here.

Look at the Rockets.

Because of Qin Tao's return, the feeling of easily winning the victory reappeared. The atmosphere in the entire locker room was unprecedentedly cheerful. Everyone seemed to be preparing to go to a nightclub. They almost called the staff to prepare champagne and beer. They looked quite happy .

When the halftime break was over, as players from both sides returned to the arena one after another, the scene in the arena made the Cavaliers players feel down.

In the arena, which is large enough to seat nearly 2 people, the already low attendance situation deteriorated further.

Some people may say that the fans must go to the toilet, eat, or go to the theme hall in the arena to have fun.

But the truth is not like this. Has anyone ever seen fans return to the stadium, drag their relatives and friends directly, or pick up their own things and leave?
No.

This proves that the fans have been disappointed with this game and have no interest in this game at all. At least no one likes to be abused by the Rockets with empathy.

Game start.

Irving and the others were obviously affected by the situation at home. Except for Irving, everyone else was like elementary school students for a whole quarter. Being held down by the Rockets was like a hard hammer.

When this quarter of the game ended, the Rockets seemed to be a little restrained, but because of the poor performance of the Cavaliers, they still trailed the Rockets by 18:26.

it took.

Before the start of the fourth quarter of this game, there were not many fans who had already started to leave the field on a large scale.

With the beginning of the fourth quarter, the coaches of the two sides seemed to be very in harmony, and they all sent substitute lineups.

only.

The Rockets have completely deployed water dispenser units, while the Cavaliers have replaced their regular rotation.

uninteresting.

In the last quarter of the game, under the Rockets' crushing style of play, it slowly entered the finale.

When the whistle sounded for the end of the normal game, the Rockets took a wild victory in Cleveland with an undoubted advantage.

Back to the hotel.

Due to the recent frequent games, the Rockets are somewhat nervous about the record. At Harden's suggestion, they called for some takeaways and drinks, and sat together in Harden's room to make a noise.

After eating and drinking, the players were exhausted, and then they went back to their houses, waiting happily to return to Houston.

The next morning.

Because Qin Tao hasn't played for a long time and is full of energy, he chooses to go to the gym to promote his strength early.

When Harden and the others came out of the room one after another, Qin Tao had already packed his things and was waiting for them in the hotel lobby.

After playing two Eastern Conference games, the Rockets will have two days of rest next.

After the break.

The Rockets will once again face Kobe Bryant's Lakers at home.

Compared with the Rockets' performance in the first half of the month and the beginning of this month, the Lakers' record is really a bit of a struggle.

They are like what they showed in their previous life. The team has problems because of too many ball holders, and the rumors of discord between players don't seem to be aimless.

all in all.

The Lakers have been marked by a large number of media as one of the most disappointing teams of the season.

And their extravagant lineup was ridiculed by a large number of keyboard warriors and some black media.

But think about it.

Although there is a saying in the e-sports circle that there is original sin, it is also very common in the arena of professional teams.

After all, with the things and honors that Kobe and the others have won, even if they cover half of their faces, their record cannot be disappointing.

But the fact is that they once again showed people that what it means to pile up stars is not only an option to win the championship, but also the price of causing great chaos.

At around 10 am, the Rockets landed in Houston by special plane.

They didn't make a post-match summary, and the team didn't ask them to accomplish anything. Everyone said goodbye happily one by one, and those who went home went home, and those who were looking for wives looked for wives.

Qin Tao and Jeremy Lin were no exceptions. Of course, Christine Laidlow was renting a hotel in her now, so Qin Tao was given a ride by Jeremy Lin and went to find his wife.

Enter the room.

Christine Laidlow seemed to have been prepared for a long time, wearing a purple apron representing maturity, hugged Qin Tao, and then got into the kitchen, as if ready to show off her skills.

Honestly.

The American table will always be those few things, the dishes are very easy to cook, and the skills are not so complicated.

One operation.

Christine Laidlow cooked a delicious American lunch for Qin Tao, including a medium-rare steak, a well-presented fruit salad, and some small food to accompany the meal. Her craftsmanship is relatively Already very good.

Christine Laidlow carefully served some salad for Qin Tao, cut a piece of steak for him personally, and said with anticipation on her pretty face, "Try it?"

Qin Tao smiled warmly, and stuffed the steak into his mouth. No matter what the taste was, he chewed and hummed deliciously.

Laughed.

Christine Laidlow started to eat with a bright smile, but just as the steak was stuffed into her mouth, her smile froze immediately, and she said with a wry smile, "Too much salt."
