Legendary basketball manager

The second battle is still in the rocket's home Toyota Center.

Shen Fei came to his VIP box early, waiting for the start of the game.

Today he also invited Sun Yue to watch the game with him.

Of course, CCTV will not miss such an important game.

Two special commentators - Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng came to the scene again, ready to explain.

It is worth mentioning that after the two noticed that Shen Fei and Sun Yue appeared in the same box, they asked the staff at the scene if they could come to the box for interviews.

"I can ask for you. But let me tell you in advance, our boss doesn't like to show his face in public, and he never agreed to an interview during the game. This is the case throughout the season."

The staff replied after listening.

"Understandable!"

"Please ask us, it doesn't matter if you don't agree."

Zhang Weiping replied in fluent English.

Soon, the staff came to the box and told Shen Fei about the situation.

"Okay, bring it here."

Shen Fei didn't hesitate too much, and agreed directly.

His idea is actually very simple.

If interviews are held between games, it may distract the Rockets players' attention, so Shen Fei refuses all of them.

But China's media, especially CCTV... is an exception.

Shen Fei still has this sense of national belonging.

Soon, Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng entered the box with two photographers.

"Hello, audience friends, welcome to watch the broadcast of NBA games brought to you by cctv5."

"I'm Xu Jicheng."

"Hi everyone, I'm Zhang Weiping!"

"I believe everyone has discovered that the place where our camera was shot today is different from before. We have prepared a surprise for everyone, please take a look!"

As Xu Jicheng spoke, he raised his hand, and the camera immediately showed Shen Fei and Sun Yue.

"Hi everyone, I'm Fei Shen."

"I'm Sun Yue!"

The two waved at the camera respectively.

"Yes, today we are honored to invite the boss of the Rockets, and also our talented manager from China—Shen Fei."

"And national player Sun Yue."

"Shen Fei, Huaxia fans have given you a lot of nicknames, do you know what they are?"

Zhang Weiping said with a smile.

"Oh? What?"

Shen Fei asked curiously.

"Some are called Brother Fei, some are called Feishen, and some fans call you..."

"Fly boy!"

Zhang Weiping laughed.

"Fei Zi? That's okay, just don't read it as Fat Boy."

Shen Fei said jokingly.

"Hahaha, no, if someone dares to read it wrong, your female fans will not agree."

"You may not know that there is a statistic on Weibo that you have more female fans in China than all the male basketball players combined!"

Zhang Weiping said enviously.

"Thank you for your love."

Said, Shen Fei made a gesture of clasping his fists.

"This time, one of the questions I want to ask the most is-what is the reason for the Rockets to sign Jeremy Lin, Yi Jianlian, and Sun Yue in just one season?"

Only then did Zhang Weiping get to the point.

"For what reason... In fact, my idea is very simple. Since becoming a team manager, I have only two goals."

"One is to build the Rockets dynasty and leave my mark in the NBA; the other is to help the Huaxia men's basketball team develop rapidly and become a world-class team."

"Signing many Chinese players is to achieve two goals at the same time. It is best to kill two birds with one stone."

Shen Fei replied frankly.

"Do it at the same time? The difficulty seems to be not small!"

Xu Jicheng was a little surprised by Shen Fei's answer.

It is naturally welcome to see more Chinese players appearing in the NBA.

But what Shen Fei meant was to let Huaxia players help him build the Rockets dynasty?

If someone else said such an idea, Xu Jicheng might say that he was unrealistic.

But when Shen Fei said this, he somehow believed it.

"Okay, let's try."

Shen Fei said lightly.

For ordinary people, it must be as difficult as climbing the sky, or it is impossible at all.

But who is he?

Traveler + opener, under double buff, this idea is not unfeasible.

Seeing Shen Fei's calm face, Xu Jicheng was speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, Zhang Weiping quickly took over the conversation, and continued to ask; "Then what is the plan for the Rockets to sign Sun Yue recently? Did they like any of Sun Yue's qualities?"

Shen Fei turned his head and glanced at Sun Yue, and said with a smile: "Sun Yue is a tall defender, and one of the few Huaxia players who can play from position 1 to position 3."

"This season, he may not have too many opportunities to perform. But believe me, after training this summer, Sun Yue will definitely surprise everyone next season."

Shen Fei said seriously.

His answer made Zhang Weiping and Xu Jicheng very happy!

"You mean, Sun Yue will get playing time with the Rockets next season?"

Zhang Weiping quickly confirmed.

"of course."

"It's not just him, Dayao, Ah Lian, and Shuhao will all be the core rotation of the Rockets next season."

Shen Fei replied.

He does not plan to tell the media about the specific plan for the time being.

After all, if you tell the world that the Rockets will sign another Chinese player during the offseason, everyone may think he is crazy!

"Okay, this is really good news haha!"

Zhang Weiping smiled so that his face was full of wrinkles.

Basketball players of the older generation like him have a dream in their hearts - to help the Huaxia men's basketball team go global!

For this dream, Zhang Weiping himself fought hard decades ago (he is a former national team player and also won the Asian Games scoring champion), but he failed to achieve his wish.

The most glorious moment of the Huaxia men's basketball team should have been in 08.

But now, the golden generation is getting old, and the new generation lacks talented players.

In the huge Huaxia, only Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian are truly at the NBA level.

Therefore, many experts believe that the Huaxia men's basketball team has passed its peak and is now on a downhill road. It will be difficult to achieve the glory of the 08 Beijing Olympics.

Of course, such arguments basically disappeared after Shen Fei appeared.

However, the fans have been looking forward to the fact that Huaxia players can have more performances in the NBA, not just Dayao's thriving.

"Okay, then we will stop here for today's interview, and the game is about to start."

Xu Jicheng glanced at the time and said.

Shen Fei nodded.

Before parting, Zhang Weiping solemnly stretched out his hands and shook Shen Fei's hand vigorously.

He didn't speak, but seemed to say a lot.

Shen Fei smiled slightly, and said understandingly: "Don't worry."

............

This interview was quickly seen by the Huaxia fans standing in front of the TV.

I thought it was just watching a Rockets game, but I never thought there would be such a big easter egg.

Soon, many fans discussed this interview on Hupu:

"The god of basketball favors you! Huaxia has a number one player like Shen Fei! I think his appearance is even more important than Yao Ming! Feizi is the one who can really lead the Huaxia men's basketball team to the world!"

"Have you noticed Brother Fei's gesture of clasping his fists? It feels so kind! He hasn't forgotten the customs of China! He really made me cry to death!"

"Although Shen Fei is amazing, I'm really not optimistic about Sun Yue. At his peak, Sun Yue could only guard the drinking fountains for the Lakers. Now that his status has declined, how could he play an important role in the Rockets?"

"Upstairs. It's not that I look down on my own players, it's just that Sun Yue's strength is much worse than Yao Yilin's. Objectively speaking, he doesn't have the NBA level."

"The first few, you are really funny. According to your logic, it is impossible for the Rockets to become the number one in the league, and they shouldn't even make the playoffs. According to me, what Feishen said, we are fans Support is over, what about beep beep?"

"That's right! I've been flying gods all my life, so why do I have to explain it to you?"

......

Fans, you say what you say, and although your opinions are different, in general, you still have great expectations for the future.

And the second battle between the Rockets and the Grizzlies began while the fans were discussing!

Yao Ming jumped up and won the scrimmage with Gasol Jr.

The rocket strikes first!

Curry passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize the offense.

He was just about to raise his hand to call his teammates to run, when Conley, who was defending him, suddenly jumped up.

The ball missed, but Curry staggered.

"Beep!"

The referee sounded and the Grizzlies made a defensive foul.

Conley remained expressionless and continued to stick to Curry, ready to defend.

Obviously, he wanted to use a tough defense to set the tone for today's game.

Curry shook his head speechlessly, turned around and started running.

Soon, with the help of Griffin's cover, the Rockets No. 30 got rid of Conley's defense and went to the outside to receive the ball.

When he received a pass from George and jumped up to make a shot, Mayo suddenly rushed towards him...

"Beep!"

The whistle sounded again, and the Grizzlies fouled with a three-pointer.

Curry was knocked to the ground.

Ben Wallace stood up in a flash.

Lowry beside him hurriedly stopped him to prevent Da Ben from being called a technical foul.

At the same time, in the vip box on the stands, Sun Yue sighed: "The Grizzlies feel determined to give us a body today..."

Shen Fei nodded in agreement.

"After the first game, they should be aware of the gap in strength. Curry's point is basically unsolvable for the Grizzlies."

"So...the first two fouls were their fear of Curry."

Shen Fei said lightly.

"If I remember correctly, Stephen was plagued by injuries for a long time at the beginning of the season, right?"

"Isn't the Grizzly doing this a kind of warning, like telling Curry that you'd better take it easy when you move, or you'll get hurt easily."

Sun Yue guessed.

"Perhaps so."

"But ... Curry is not going to back down."

Shen Fei said lightly.

............

On the court, the other four Rockets players rushed towards Curry.

Yao Ming grabbed his left hand, McGrady grabbed his right hand, Griffin grabbed his left foot, George grabbed his right foot, and lifted Curry up.

"What are you doing?!"

Curry yelled.

Immediately, all the rocket generals laughed.

After putting Curry down, McGrady patted the former's head affectionately and asked with concern, "Are you all right?"

"No problem at all."

Mengshen said calmly, then turned and walked to the free throw line.

Seeing this, CCTV commentator Zhang Weiping commented in a timely manner: "Hey, Curry is very calm. And from the slightly joyful action just now, it can be seen that the mentality of the Rockets starters is very relaxed."

As he spoke, Curry had taken the basketball from the referee.

After making three free throws, the score came to 3:0.

The Rockets head start!

After scoring, Curry smiled and looked in Mayo's direction.

The raised corner of the mouth seemed to be a response to the other party's rude gesture just now.

However, the rest of the Rockets did not intend to just let Mayo go.

Offensive and defensive conversion.

George and McGrady switched defenses and faced Mayo directly.

Soon, he seized the opportunity, started early, and cut off the pass from Conley to Mayo.

The Rockets took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack!

McGrady followed up on the left side. After receiving the pass, he used a freehand back circle to sway past Mayo who was defending, and then completed the end with a light dunk.

5:0, the Rockets made a good start.

Grizzlies attack.

Randolph hit Griffin in the low post.

Relying on his strength advantage, he reached near the three-second zone, turned around and hooked.

Griffin fought his way to the jump, but the ball flew over his fingertips and into the net.

5:2, the Grizzlies also broke the deadlock.

But before they had time to relax, Yao Ming waved his hand, and a long pass across the half court found George who was stealing the fast break.

After Pickle catches the ball, the long distance ahead is unimpeded.

showtime!

I saw him jumping with both feet, jumped up, swung his arms 360 degrees in the air, and completed a windmill dunk!

"Roar!!!"

After the goal, George celebrated passionately in the stands.

Fans at the Toyota Center also responded with enthusiastic cheers!

7:2, the Rockets continue to lead.

Changing sides to fight again, Conley and Gasol played pick-and-roll tactics in high positions.

With the latter's screen, Conley successfully passed Curry and broke through to the free throw line.

Afraid of the Oriental God Tower in the penalty area, Conley chose to make a jumper with an emergency stop...

"duang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.

Yao Ming relaxed his arms, accepted the rebound, and handed the ball to Curry beside him.

The Rocket No. 30 immediately accelerated and headed towards the Grizzlies halftime.

After coming to the Grizzlies half, Curry keenly found that Conley was far away from him.

[good chance...]

Curry was overjoyed, immediately stopped the ball at the Rockets logo, and made a decisive three-pointer...

After the basketball left his fingertips, it spun at high speed, drawing a rainbow-like arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

10:2,.

The Rockets got off to a fantastic start.

"Good guy! Could it be that the suspense of today's game will be ended early?"

Zhang Weiping shook his head and said.

"The Rockets are in great shape!"

"It can be seen that at the beginning of the game, the Grizzlies wanted to use their fierce defense to disown the Rockets, but now the situation seems to be worse than the last game..."

Xu Jicheng added.

"What did you say you messed with him?"

"Playing the game in a proper manner, the Rockets may not be so serious."

"This young team doesn't seem to be afraid of confrontation at all, and the fierce defensive command makes them even more excited!"

Zhang Weiping said with emotion.

In the VIP box, Sun Yue stared wide-eyed, and said in surprise: "Stephen is really not afraid at all! It seems that many people, including me, have been 'deceived' by his appearance."

At this time, the Grizzlies coach - Hollins saw that the situation was not good, and quickly resorted to a timeout.

For this competition, the team prepared for two full days.

He doesn't want the game to end in the first quarter!
