Chapter 119 The Battle of Vengeance Six

Play time stopped before Dayao threw the ball.The Rockets lost, and it was a pity to lose, because the final score was 116:113, and the Rockets only lost by 3 points.

But if you lose, you lose, no matter how much you lose, even if you lose even one point, you lose.Adelman's complexion was not good. His original plan was to limit Wu Di and defeat the Lakers.

But later he discovered that these two goals were a fish and a bear's paw, and they couldn't have both at the same time.So he gave up the fish of Wu Di and chose to defeat the Lakers.

Turns out he was wrong again!The Rockets still lost. This wasn't a fish and a bear's paw at all, it was two big mountains, and he couldn't breathe under the pressure.Thinking of what Wu Di said in the second quarter, although he didn't hear it, it was precisely because of those words that Adelman had the confidence to beat the Lakers.

Because Wu Difen's words boosted the Rockets players' fighting spirit, but now he feels that those words made him feel as sick as swallowing a fly.

If the Rockets lose due to low morale, it is excusable. How can he make excuses in this situation?Adelman can imagine what those reporters would say at the press conference.

"Coach Adelman, do you have anything to say about today's game?"

Adelman pretended to be happy and said: "Today's game is very meaningful, because I know the shortcomings of the Rockets from today's game. We still need a long way to go to win the championship..."

Adelman's plausible answer obviously did not satisfy the reporter. A female reporter stood up and said, "Coach Adelman, today Wu scored 26 points, 11 rebounds, 15 assists, 5 steals and 3 blocks. Do you regret trading him to the Lakers? You must know that Odom's statistics today are only 14 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, and Odom's salary is seven or eight times that of Wu, do you have anything to say about this?"

Adelman's mouth twitched, but he had to answer because the league has regulations that require a good attitude when answering reporters' questions, and he needs to answer everything except personal privacy and business secrets.

This issue is obviously not personal privacy or commercial secrets. Adelman thought it over before saying: "Data does not represent a person's ability. We have to look at the problem from other aspects. The Rockets' fourth position is very weak. We need A strong four to help Yao."

"Then why did the Rockets trade for Artest after they traded away Wu Di? Could it be that the Rockets are also weak at the third position? Battier is on the bench for this, and Wu has been playing for Batty last season. Do you think Artest is much stronger than Wu?"

"Everyone has their own criteria for the strength of players. I don't know what criteria you mean by strong. I just want to say that all players who are traded away are not suitable for the Rockets. Players who are suitable for the Rockets, we don't It will be traded easily."

Faced with Adelman's shameless words, the reporters didn't know what to ask.

After the interview with the away team, it's the home team's turn.Zen master and Kobe spoke a few words in a hurry, and then handed the microphone to Wu Di.Today's protagonist is Wu Di, so they won't overwhelm the host.

When Wu Di took the microphone, someone immediately raised his hand and asked, "Wu, what did you say to the Rockets shortly after the second quarter started? Can you tell us in detail?"

Wu Di smiled smugly, nodded and said: "You also know that at the end of the first quarter, they were reprimanded miserably, and the roar could be heard almost throughout the arena."

Everyone knew that Wu Di was describing Adelman, and some chuckled.

"Maybe it's because of too much pressure, and their competitive state is not very good. Although I was traded to the Lakers, I still have feelings for the Rockets. I told them that it is wrong for you to play like this. You must cheer up, even if you lose. You have to do your best to fight.”

"I didn't expect that the effect seemed a bit too much. Not only did it almost cause a conflict, but it also made the Rockets excited throughout the game. Here I have to say a few words to my Lakers teammates and my Rockets teammates."

"To my Lakers teammates, I want to say sorry, because because of my personal feelings, you have to put in more energy to win the game, so I am here to say very solemnly - I'm sorry!"

"And to my Rockets teammates, I want to say, remember my words today, if you are in this situation, think about my words, and then you will have the fighting spirit."

The reporters laughed again, and they could tell that what Wu Di said was very positive.But these words are not good news for Adelman. Improving morale depends on the opponent's players. What do you do as a head coach?Just to growl?
"Wu, what do you think about leaving the Rockets? After arriving in the Lakers, you started and showed a very strong strength. Why?"

"This is a commercial league, and every player must be prepared to be traded. Because the NBA wants to prosper, it's inevitable. I don't hate the Rockets because it's not easy. won the championship."

Reporters once again, this sentence is a complete irony that the Rockets have no chance of winning the championship.

I have played well this season, the management attaches great importance to me, the coach also attaches great importance to me, and my teammates also like me very much.Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to get such good data as today. You have to know what data I had last season, it was just the data of a marginal person. How can I get the data of an All-Star player like now? "

The reporters laughed again, which was Adelman's response.

"Of course, my accumulation of experience last season is also very important. It is not that the Rockets have not reused me. If the Rockets do not reuse me, I will definitely stay on the injured list and have no chance to play. On the contrary, I have gained a lot. In the regular season, I asked for a leave of absence for only one game, and I played in all the remaining 81 games."

Everyone laughs again, this is still talking about Adelman, Wu Di has not started a single game in these 81 games. During McGrady’s injury, Adelman recognized other people and did not need Wu Di to start. He will only be allowed to play in times of crisis, otherwise Rockets fans don't call Wu Di a firefighter either.

"So Wu, what are your expectations for the Lakers this season?"

"Of course it is the championship. I have already fallen in front of the championship once, and I don't want to fall again!" Wu Di said solemnly: "And the management traded me because they wanted me to help the team win more championships." Yes, although I don't have a lot of experience in the playoffs, I have the unyielding energy of a young man, and the Lakers will win the championship this season!"
