Chapter 59 Mental Quality Determines Success or Failure
"Of course, I will never go back on my word." Mark Jackson said.

On the court, the players' pre-match warm-up has come to an end.

Wang Fei suddenly heard the fans in the stands making a lot of noise.

"Look, Wang, you're on the big screen." Gary Clark touched Wang Fei and said.

Wang Fei looked up at the big screen hanging above the arena. Sure enough, what was playing on the big screen were some wonderful tidbits of his playing in the CBA.

Those stunning steals and blocks as well as dazzling close-ups of fast break layups were all shown on the big screen in turn.

Wang Fei thought, not bad.

Although he couldn't play in this game, the team made a special special for him to broadcast on the big screen.

This is also a declaration.

Announcing that China's hottest basketball superstar Wang Fei has come to the NBA and joined the Rockets.

"Fake! That kid is really strong!"

"My God! How can such a short man jump so high?"

"Who is this? Why do you want to broadcast the tidbits of this guy with yellow skin and black eyes?"

"This is the fastest yellow man I have ever seen. He is so fast, he is like a whirlwind of yellow!"

"Wang Fei! This is Wang Fei! This kid is very popular in China now! It is said that he only played five games in the China Basketball League, and he became popular all of a sudden!"

In the stands, many spectators were discussing loudly.

Many people don't know Wang Fei yet.

However, there are also some senior fans who often watch the news and know Wang Fei quite well, so they talk about Wang Fei's legend to the people around them.

"Wang, this shows that the team values ​​you very much." Gary Clark said with a smile on his face enviously.

"I also felt a little surprised. This way, the pressure on my shoulders is even greater." Wang Fei said.

"Do a good job! Man, you will definitely have a lot of playing time. As long as you can use your abilities, you will definitely become a superstar." Gary Clark patted Wang Fei on the shoulder and said.

The team went back to the locker room for a break.

Then, at 07:30, the game started on time.

The main players on the Rockets side are James Harden, Daniel House, Gerald Green and PJ Tucker, and Clint Capela is at the center position.

Wang Fei was not surprised by this formation.

The reason why Eric Gordon was not used as the main force was to let him lead the substitutes as the second team.

You know, Eric Gordon is recognized as the best sixth man in the league.

The main players for the Nuggets are: Jamal Murray, a guard and a rookie trained by the Nuggets themselves. The current statistics are quite impressive, averaging 18.3 points per game; and then there is Gary Harry. Si, this is also a tall guard with good scoring ability; the other main player is Will Barton. Barton is 1.98 meters tall and he is a swingman.

The Nuggets are tantamount to playing three guards.

Their striker is Paul Millsap, an old guy, experienced and a quality player.

At the center position of the Nuggets is Nikola Jokic, a Serbian who is also a rookie trained by the Nuggets.

Jokic is playing very well, currently averaging 20.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 7.7 assists per game.

It is really rare for such a big man of 2.13 meters to be able to play so comprehensively.

Just look at his assist data and you will know that the defender may not be able to average 7.7 assists per game!

In fact, the Nuggets are also focusing on training Jokic. This young man can currently be regarded as the leader of the Nuggets.

The Nuggets team does not have the kind of hot stars in the league at the moment, but their strength is relatively average, and they play overall basketball.

This season's record is also very good.

Although it was at home, the Rockets did not start well.

On the contrary, the Nuggets are on the offensive.

After playing for 3 minutes in the first quarter, the Nuggets hit a 13:5 spurt.

This forced Rockets coach D'Antoni to call a timeout.

At this moment, it was 9:40 in the morning of China time, and China CCTV also had a live broadcast of the game.

Ever since Yao Ming became famous in the Rockets, China Central Television had a special liking for the Rockets' games, and there were many live broadcasts of the Rockets' games on China Central Television.

Today's live broadcast host is Yu Jia, and the commentators are Yang Yi and Zhang Weiping.

This is also the old partner of CCTV live broadcasting NBA games.

The game hadn't started yet, and the old three were chatting hotly there.

Yu Jia said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the current Rockets have two Chinese players. Director Zhang, let me tell you. Can Wang Fei be valued by the Rockets now that he is in the Rockets?"

Zhang Weiping said unhurriedly: "Wang Fei wants to get a position in the Rockets. I think it's not easy."

"Director Zhang, please analyze it for us. Where are the main difficulties?" Yu Jia said.

Zhang Weiping said: "First of all, although Paul is injured in the Rockets, they still have a lot of talents in the guard position. Not to mention anything else, Harden is a very strong combo player, scoring organization, that's all. Quite strong. The other two defenders Eric Gordon and Daniel House are also capable. Therefore, even if Paul is injured, Wang Fei cannot get too much playing time."

Yang Yi shook his head and said: "Director Zhang, I don't agree with your point of view. I think Wang Fei's ability is no worse than Eric Gordon and Daniel House. In terms of technology, Wang Fei is better than these two. Defenders need to be more comprehensive, and if it comes to speed and awareness, Wang Fei can completely beat Eric Gordon and Daniel House."

Zhang Weiping glanced at Yang Yi with a smile and said: "Wang Fei's physical condition is really average. Although he can play well in the CBA, the NBA game is much more intense than the CBA. Those who are the best in the world Excellent black players are all physically strong, Wang Fei, as a non-confrontation Chinese player, cannot be valued by the team."

Yu Jia said: "Coach Zhang, although the CBA games are a little worse than the NBA, the confrontations are also very fierce. In the few CBA games that Wang Fei played, he was always fighting against the opponent's foreign players. I didn't see that he was We lost in the confrontation."

Yang Yi laughed and said, "Director Zhang will definitely say, how can the ability of foreign players in CBA games compare with those in NBA."

Zhang Weiping said seriously: "Yes, that's what I was about to say. But, to be honest, I also hope that Wang Fei can play well. If Wang Fei can succeed in the NBA, will it be better than Yao Ming's success in the NBA?" There are too many meanings. But the reality is really cruel. Look at Zhou Qi, his physical condition and basketball skills are considered top-notch in China, but in the NBA, he can't even play and can only be marginalized. Could the Rockets Don’t you want Zhou Qi to play well? At the beginning, it also gave Zhou Qi some opportunities. But Zhou Qi’s body was still too weak, there was no confrontation at all, and he was helpless. As a result, he couldn’t even make the rotation."

Yang Yi said: "I agree with Director Zhang's last sentence. Zhou Qi is not confident enough to play, and his ability to seize the opportunity to play is not strong. However, Zhou Qi is not Yao Ming, and his qualifications are not at all like Yao Ming's." Fabi. But Wang Fei is different. Wang Fei plays very smart and passionate. Most importantly, he shoots accurately! As long as there is a chance to shoot, even as an outside shooter, he is also very useful. Director Zhang , have you thought of that?"

Zhang Weiping said: "You are right. Wang Fei's accurate shooting is his advantage. However, I dare say that he will not get many shooting opportunities. He can't have the ball, and he can only go outside. The pitcher is developing in this direction. I think whether Wang Fei can make a difference depends on his own psychological quality."
