NBA villain

Chapter 64 Immediate Mission - Derby Show
As the night fell and the lights came on, citizens who bought tickets lined up in a long line and walked into the Toyota Center.

In the locker room, Stan Van Gundy drew a red circle heavily on Yao Ming, who represents the C position of the Rockets on the tactical board, "We have lost five games in a row, and we can't lose again. Houston is ranked ninth and tenth in the West. , this game, we must win."

"The key to defending Houston is defending their big man, Yao Ming from China."

"Like the Pistons, Houston also uses two centers to partner inside, Kevin Cato, who was forced to transfer to the position of power forward, but his duties are still mostly defensive. Jeff is good at building defense. He will definitely not let Yao Ming and Kevin work together for too long, because the positions of the two are in conflict."

"So once Houston chooses to use Morris Taylor, who is shorter but has a larger offensive range, Yao Ming will definitely take on more defensive responsibilities. .Also, pay attention to rebound protection."

After Van Gundy gave another eloquent push, when it was time for the game, Yang Di and others filed out of the locker room.

……

After the Rockets selected Yao Ming last season, they improved their record to ninth in the Western Conference by partnering with outsiders Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley.

This season, the Rockets basically maintained the original lineup of last season, signing the 33-year-old veteran Jim Jackson as a swingman. He is also willing to reduce his shots. Since the start of the game, Yao Ming's scoring average has improved sufficiently.

He averaged 19 points and 9.8 rebounds per game, which is completely star-level insider data.

Even so, Yao Ming still feels the conflict between cultural integration. He and Yang Di said that adapting to the NBA is a difficult process, not only reflected in the game, but also in daily training, communication with teammates, and ability to adapt to the NBA. Whether to achieve ideological tolerance.

And the best way to prove yourself is to rely on strong strength.

The fans in Houston are like this. If Yao Ming was selected as the All-Star starter last season, it was disgusting. His performance since the start of this season has completely made him conquer the fans in this area. Many Americans like it The humble, gentle and talented court gentleman.

In comparison, Yang Di, who is also a Chinese player, is like another extreme, irritable, impulsive, and negative news continues.

BJ, the studio broadcast by Chaoting TV.

The commentator invited for this game was Sun Zhengping and guest commentator Xu Jicheng, the commentator partner of the older generation. These two were already relatively heavyweights, and it also showed that the imperial court attached great importance to this game.

The game has not officially started, and the two of them will give a brief explanation and prediction before the game starts.

"The Rockets still win," Xu Jicheng said categorically: "The Rockets have just won three consecutive victories. From the perspective of momentum and state, they are obviously better than the Heat. And the most important point is that the Rockets have height inside. Yao Ming, Kevin Cato They are all seven-footers, and the Heat are all a bunch of short insiders who are less than 2 meters 10. This will be a disadvantage for the Heat."

Sun Zhengping said, "The Rockets are ranked third in the Western Conference, and the Heat are the last in the Eastern Conference. In terms of strength, there is also a clear gap between the two teams. In addition, everyone has rested for two days, and the Rockets have a home game. advantage, it's going to be hard for the Heat to get this win from the Toyota Center."

The two of you explained each other with each other, and the words seemed to be fading.

At this time, the players on both sides of the field had already settled down, and the referee on duty walked to the middle circle to kick off the ball. After the whistle sounded, Sun Zhengping's voice sounded like an echo.

"China Central Television, China Central Television, what you are watching now is the NBA game between the Miami Heat and the Houston Rockets"

"First, the Rockets won with a jump ball, a good shot, Yao Ming turned around and made a beautiful slam dunk!"

There are no flaws in the retro language. Some people say that Sun Zhengping is the James of the commentary world. He knows everything from basketball, football, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, diving, track and field gymnastics, to aerobics, hockey, boxing, judo, and taekwondo. not there.

"Ding, instant task, derby show - get better points, rebounds and blocks than Yao Ming in the Chinese derby. Rating A, task reward: Yao Ming template training card pack (A+)."

Yang Di stared fieryly at No. 11 on the field, as if he saw three opportunities to use the template training field.

But as soon as he saw Yao Ming coming up and scoring a goal, Yang Di's heart went cold, and he yelled loudly: "Fuck, defense is good, can you defend!"

"En?" Haslem looked at Yang Di with strange eyes, thinking that Yao Ming is not Yang Di's fellow.In the afternoon before, the two of them were chatting and laughing, looking intimate, but they didn't expect to turn their faces and deny each other in a match at this moment. This kid is really black-bellied.

Thinking of this, Haslem moved his butt, feeling that he was in danger.

Probably because he heard Yang Di's shout or felt that it was too embarrassing to be dunked on the head by a boy like Yao Ming, Grant worked hard and worked hard on the defense after that. The two fierce men with the best physical fitness fought each other with Francis, and the scene was very lively.

Yao Ming tried a mid-range turnaround jumper and missed. He took two shots in the first quarter, and then changed the field in the 7th minute. He scored 2 points, 2 rebounds and 1 foul.

Yang Di made a substitution in the 9th minute. To his surprise, there was a lot of cheers at the scene.

"Come on, Yang Di!" The local Chinese fans in Houston applauded and shouted at Yang Di. Yang Di looked up in surprise and saw the two or three people in the two rows of seats wearing his No. 8 Chinese fans in Heat jerseys are waving their arms.

Yang Di waved his hand in response, they also saw Yang Di's gaze, they were overjoyed and waved more actively.

On the field, Rockets Kevin Cato is a center player, power forward is Scott Padgett, small forward Trey Braggs, shooting guard Jim Jackson, and point guard Cutino Mobley.As for the Heat, Wade remains on the court, John Wallace and Eddie Jones are the wing players, and Haslem and Yang Di are the insiders.

The two teams are actually point guard teams. The Rockets' Mobley is good at scoring. Although the Heat's side is handed over to Wade's organization, they mostly focus on simple breakthroughs and points.

As soon as Yang Di came on the court, Wade immediately gave him a look, signaling him to come out for the pick-and-roll.

After Yang Di came up, the two veteran hosts of Chaoting TV began to give a brief introduction of Yang Di. There was no way to avoid this. But there is no other way.

"This is a legendary Chinese player." Sun Zhengping emphasized the word "nationality". In fact, Yang Di does not have any qualification certification for athletes recognized by the General Administration of Sports of China, so he is now embarrassing for the Basketball Association. It can only be regarded as a special existence of a Chinese player, and he cannot be controlled anyway.

"Judging from the few games he played in the past, this player focuses on defense and light offense. The inside offensive method is relatively simple, and his physical fitness is very good. He has made top ten shots before and is very good at dunking. So he came up mainly to strengthen defense. and the ability to protect the frame in the penalty area, while strengthening the offense," Xu Jicheng said slowly.

Then he paused and changed the topic, "A viewer sent a text message saying that if the Heat lose again, he will sell the TV. Don't, the Heat will win one day."

Sun Zhengping: "."

"Strike!" The two exclaimed together.

Sun Zhengping said: "The goal from Dwyane Wade, his breakthrough is as fast as lightning, and the layup in the penalty area is like entering no one's land."

Xu Jicheng continued: "The Rockets shouldn't be defensive. This ball reflects the weakening of the penalty zone defense after Yao Ming is off the court. How to protect the penalty zone when the substitute players are off the court is a problem that should be solved. Hey, look. , and didn’t make it again, it was still easy to play.”

"Yang Di protects the rebounds in the backcourt. His ability to block positions and rebounds is a major feature."

In the frontcourt, Yang Di once again screened and rolled for Wade. After Wade broke down, he changed his mind to walk to the center line. Yang Di crossed and ran down. Wade attracted the defense. De threw a high throw to Yang Di, and Yang Di instantly formed a situation where no one was defending and attacked the basket.

At this time, the Rockets power forward emptied Haslem and defended Yang Di.

Yang Di dribbled the ball with a "snap", and when he saw Scott Padgett who was defending, he suddenly had a very clear idea in his mind, and he threw the ball freehand like a flash of inspiration.

"What!" Scott didn't expect Yang Di to play the ball so fast, so he didn't judge it.

When he turned his head again, Haslem smashed the ball into the basket with a "bang"!
The audience was in an uproar, and the two Van Gundy coaches stood up from their seats at the same time, showing surprise on their faces.
