The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 118 Enthusiastic Dayao!Bursting attention!

On December 2006, 12, at noon on the day of the "China Derby".

Zhang Bolong's little troubles were clearly arranged by Dayao with a delicious meal.

Competing with outsiders always pays attention to "beginning with etiquette and then fighting". When facing his younger brother who comes to his home court, Yao Ming is naturally even more caring.

He drove Zhang Bolong to his new home, and helped Xiaolong "warm up" with delicious home-cooked dishes, which perfectly fulfilled the friendship of the landlord.

Many reporters thought that Yao Ming would entertain Zhang Bolong in his own Yao restaurant, and clean up the dust for this compatriot.

Some reporters even went to Yao restaurant in advance to wait for Dayao and Zhang Bolong to show up together.

What they didn't expect was that Yao Ming would personally drive here and take Zhang Bolong back to his home from the Four Seasons Hotel where the Warriors stayed, completing this eye-catching reception.

While waiting for Zhang Bolong to come downstairs at the entrance of the hotel, Yao Ming half-jokingly asked his friends: "It stands to reason that a rookie can't enjoy this kind of treatment, right?"

Zhang Bolong just heard these words, he laughed and said:

"You really treat me as a rookie, please maintain due respect for the Warriors boss?"

As he said that, he rushed over in three steps and two steps, and gave Yao Ming a bear hug.

"Long time no see, Brother Yao!"

Yao Ming also laughed and said: "Xiaolong, long time no see! Look at you, you are so proud of winning the best of the week, and I don't know what to do with the best of the month."

In the just-announced selection of the best players in November, Dayao and "Warcraft" Dwight Howard won this honor together.

"Warcraft" officially entered the ranks of the league's top centers this season. In the first month of the game, he averaged 17.1 points and 13.6 rebounds per game, and at the same time sent 1.9 blocks, leading the Magic. Excellent record of 12 wins and 4 losses.

And Dayao did not give up. He helped the Rockets win 15 of the past 10 games, averaging 25.7 points and 10.1 rebounds per game, and his free throw percentage was as high as 84.7%.

"I think you won the best of the month, but you are making fun of me, my little brother."

"How dare you, Brother Long's popularity is too high now, hahaha! Are your injuries all right?"

"It's fine at first, and you'll know how well I've recovered after playing the game for a while."

This is a very compatible couple. Ever since Zhang Bolong entered the national team and conquered everyone with his skills, Yao Ming and Zhang Bolong quickly became acquainted with him.

If it weren't for Zhang Bolong's serious injury, the Rockets would probably trade up the No. [-] pick in order to be able to take him off.

The two talked to each other, and there was no stranger who hadn't seen each other for a few months. From time to time, there were happy chatter and laughter in the speeding car.

In the Lighthouse Country, receiving guests at home is considered the highest courtesy.

Yao Ming has always been a person who clearly separates work and family, so Yao Ming would not bring him home with ordinary friends.

But Zhang Bolong is obviously not in this list.

"Before, I took Wang Zhizhi to my house, and then Battelle lived in Houston for a while, and I also took him to my house." Yao Ming said in an interview, "Both of them were above me in China back then. players, and I have a lot of respect for them.”

Compared with Dazhi and Daba, Yao Ming really regarded Zhang Bolong as a good brother, a younger brother of the same age. There is still a difference between this kind of active invitation and the general hospitality out of friendship.

Soon, the time has come to the evening.

The two left home and rushed to the Rockets' home court - the Toyota Center.

Although the attendance rate of the Rockets is not high in the statistical data over the years, it is often photographed by the rebroadcast camera with a large number of vacancies. In Zhang Bolong's previous life, there were many promotions for "cheap sales" of tickets.

He once wondered whether the work in the Aerospace City was tiring, and people often bought tickets and didn't bother to come and see them.

This question was not clear until he crossed over.

Today, the people of Houston, who are used to the unlimited attention brought by Yao Ming, once again felt the majesty and stalwart of this magical power from the far east.

Not only was the Toyota Center full of seats an hour before the start of the game, even the media and reporters on the sidelines flocked here, embellishing the place like a large event.

In the locker room of the home team before the game, Yao Ming was still talking humorously and cheerfully in front of the microphone.

It's just that he is trying to play down the concept of "China Derby", emphasizing that this is just an ordinary game.

He was afraid that too much attention would bring unnecessary pressure to Xiaolong.

In the locker room of the visiting team, Zhang Bolong behaved even more calmly, and he didn't seem to think that the "China Derby" was such an important game.

"You guys, don't always want to make big news..."

More than an hour before the start of the game, Zhang Bolong was surrounded by reporters in the locker room.

"In my opinion, the 'China Derby' is just a regular season for our players. At best, it allows me to meet Yao Ge in a foreign country, chat, and eat, that's all .

But for the fans, I have to say that this is another rare feast, so we will try our best to show the best performance and strive to live up to everyone's expectations. "

"Long, this is your first time playing with Yao Ming in the NBA. I would like to ask, do you feel nervous now?" A reporter asked him.

"Why am I nervous? You should ask Biedrins about this. I'm not an insider. I can't match Dayao... Andris!"

"What's the matter, boss."

"Fight against Yao tonight, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" He looked bloody, "We are the Golden State Gang! Warriors are not afraid of any opponent!"

The loud roar startled the female reporter in front of her, and she didn't know what to say for a long time...

On the other side, Old Nelson also accepted the reporter's interview with a red face:

"Maybe you the media like to see such a situation. With so many people's attention, this game will of course be more exciting, but I can't think too much about these issues."

He said with a smile,

"I think more about the team and the game. Long is the same. He is a combination of passion and calmness. He has a high IQ. I think his performance will satisfy you."

On the other side of the ocean, CCTV, the building of CCTV is also festive like a festival.

From the host to the staff, to the leaders in the stage, everyone had bright smiles on their faces.

They know what this game means.

The highest ratings record ever recorded by a sports channel is about to be broken in a few hours!
Soon, in the anticipation of the Chinese people all over the world, the Chinese Derby battle with the attention index of "breaking [-] million" kicked off!
