NBA: Being criticized for half a year at the beginning

Tang Yu finally figured out the reason for this mysterious hacker. This person hated Tang Yu because of a series of operations Tang Yu did after buying the Rockets.

Although Tang Yu later won the championship, this person had gone crazy and embarked on this criminal path.

He thought he had done it perfectly, but he didn't expect to be caught by Max's men. What awaits him will also be legal sanctions.

That night, the Rockets ushered in a back-to-back game with the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Clippers' backcourt is led by Long Zhidao this season, and they are full of momentum with a group of young players. They are currently ranked fifth in the West and have very strong offensive power.

Rockets player boxing champion Ibaka ushered in the last game of his suspension, and Dayao will also rest in this game. The Rockets' current schedule can be said to be more difficult than one game.

After the two games, the Rockets will rest for two days, and then usher in back-to-back home games with Thunder and Hawks.

Tang Yu received a call from the team GM Chris Webber after entering Staples again.

"Hello Chris, what's up?"

Webber said on the other end of the phone: "Boss, several teams want to ask about Jeremy's trade."

Jeremy Lin?

Tang Yu wondered, the Rockets only have one year of Jeremy Lin's right to use, and Jeremy Lin's salary will definitely increase next season, and his team can't keep this hottest player at all.

And now there is only one possibility for the team that can't wait to get Jeremy Lin, the team that is competing for the championship and lacks a point guard.

Then there are actually not many such teams in the league. The Heat and the Magic are the two teams that are most hungry for good point guards.

"Heat or Magic?"

Webber was stunned for a moment and said: "Boss, you actually thought of it, yes, these two teams are asking about the possibility of Jeremy Lin's trade."

"I don't think their bid will be too high, 1-2 first-round picks with a point guard is the best bid."

"Yes, both teams are a future first-round pick with a marginal point guard." Webber said truthfully.

"Hmph, tell them it's impossible!" Tang Yu hung up the phone directly.

Let's not talk about the problem of aiding the enemy. If Lin Shuhao is traded now, his team will collapse immediately. As for the problem of losing Lin Shuhao at the end of the season, Tang Yu is not worried at all.

It was originally a pleasant surprise, and he didn't want to force Lin Shuhao to stay in his team.

After arriving at the visiting team's locker room, Tang Yu did not inform Lin Shuhao that the Rockets had received a trade offer.

"Guys, it's still a tough battle tonight. Since Yao Ming will not play, Greg will return to the team's starting lineup. We just need to fight hard to win, and leave the rest to that damn God!"

After five consecutive highlights, Lin Shuhao's fans have become crazy, and Staples has already seen a lot of red areas.

A large number of fans wore Lin Shuhao jerseys and held various posters about Lin Shuhao in their hands to cheer him on.

Clippers owner 'Basketball God' Michael Jordan personally sat in Staples in this game. The performance of the Clippers this season made him very happy.

The two rookies Tang Yu recommended to him have shown very strong strength, especially Jimmy Butler, who can be said to be the biggest surprise of the Clippers this season.

Butler averaged 16.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.8 steals and 1 block per game this season.

Butler, who can swing between shooting guard and small forward, has won the Western Conference's best rookie in November, and he is second only to Irving in the rookie rankings.

Jordan saw Tang Yu coming out of the player tunnel and stood up and walked towards him with a smile, "Man, you look good!"

Tang Yu smiled and knew that Jordan was talking about what happened in the morning.

"Of course, it's just a little Kara, like a mosquito, he won't kill you, but he always buzzes in your ears, which is the most annoying. And I just need to find the right time to pinch him to death!"

"That's right, my brother, you can always create miracles, just like the current Rockets, how incredible. You can always find these excellent players!"

Tang Yu smiled and said, "It's all luck, my luck has always been good, right!"

"That's true, but I think the god of luck will stand on my side tonight, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time!" Jordan said confidently.

Tang Yu smiled without comment, and after the two hugged, Tang Yu returned to his bench.

The Clippers are not injured at present, and they can send all their main players to play.

The point guard is naturally 'Coach Ron' Rajon Rondo;

The shooting guard is the super rookie Jimmy Butler;

The small forward 'Hacker' Shawn Marion;Power forward 'White Beast' Blake Griffin;

Center rookie Vucevic.

Tang Yu's Rockets still played with a depleted lineup, including point guard Jeremy Lin, shooting guard Ray Allen, small forward Kevin Durant, power forward Carl Landry and center Greg Oden.

The Clippers are currently on a 6-game winning streak in the league, while the Rockets are on a 5-game winning streak. Whoever wins will be able to maintain their winning streak.

On paper, the strength of the two teams can be said to be almost the same. It depends on who plays better tonight to take the victory.

After the two teams started the game, the Clippers took the lead. Griffin and Coach Long immediately made a one-arm dunk, which was a very explosive dunk.

Immediately afterwards, the Rockets' Durant's attack failed, and Butler scored two more points with a layup in the interior.

The Rockets players woke up from their dreams, and Jeremy Lin immediately responded to the home team with action. After Durant missed the first shot, Jeremy Lin called Oden to pick and roll with himself.

After Oden pulled Vucevic up on the right, he and Jeremy Lin made a fake pick-and-roll, and then quickly went down. Jeremy Lin made a ground pass to Oden, who successfully attacked the basket against Vucevic's defense.

2-4, the Rockets finally scored at the start.

At 9 minutes and 11 seconds, Jeremy Lin assisted Oden again to hit Vucevic with a 2+1 at the basket. Oden was tall and Vucevic was completely unable to defend against the emperor's strong attack.

"That's it, Greg, you have to give them enough pressure!" Jeremy Lin patted Oden's butt and said.

Oden replied in a muffled voice: "Okay, man, I will defeat their inside line!"

At 6 minutes and 13 seconds, Jeremy Lin missed both of his shots tonight, but he was still able to help his teammates score by organizing the team.

Lin Shuhao, who was forced to the corner of the baseline, saw Ray Allen on the weak side asking for the ball, slid sideways out of bounds, and then slipped his right hand at the moment of falling to the ground, and the basketball flew to the side of the gentleman's sword.

In the completely open situation, Ray Allen naturally would not give up this, and hit a three-pointer with a knife.

11-12, the Rockets were still 1 point behind.

Tang Yu applauded Lin Shuhao's assist off the court. This pass was full of imagination and had some master style.

After Durant was replaced, the Clippers suddenly exerted their strength. Rondo, Butler and Griffin teamed up to beat the Rockets to a 10-4 climax in 2 minutes and 15 seconds.

Tang Yu did not lose his composure after the timeout, and still arranged the player rotation according to the established tactics.

3 minutes and 55 seconds in the first quarter, Lin Shuhao finally opened the game. After giving the ball to Xiaoka to attack without success, the ball returned to Lin Shuhao's hands.

With little time left in the attack, Jeremy Lin forced his way through the opponent in the face of Rondo's defense. It must be said that Rondo's defense was still very strong, and he continuously gave Jeremy Lin the body of the opponent.

But even so, Jeremy Lin did not choose to retreat, and forced a one-handed dunk over Brian Cook's block and scored the ball.

After Durant left the court, Jeremy Lin completely took over the Rockets' offense. At 3 minutes and 13 seconds, Jeremy Lin once again used his lightning speed to attack the Clippers' inside line.

After passing Rondo in one step, he challenged the Clippers' inside line Griffin to layup again. Griffin obviously had a contact with the ball but was not called for a foul.

"Hey, this is a foul! Didn't you see that he was violated!" Tang Yu shouted off the court.

It is also part of the head coach's job to put some pressure on the referee at the right time. If you don't say anything when you are treated unfairly, then the referee will no longer be afraid of you.

The sideline referee glanced at Tang Yu, but didn't say anything. After returning to the next round, he said to Tang Yu: "I saw the coach, but the ball just now was too fast. You have to understand my age!"

Tang Yu smiled, okay... what else can he say.

Jeremy Lin was soon replaced and rested. Tang Yu put Jason Terry on the court to play the point guard role.

At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets' score was not high, only 21 points, while the home team Clippers scored 28 points, and the Rockets were 7 points behind away from home.

After the start of the second quarter, Jeremy Lin and Durant were not on the court at the same time. This was a change for the Rockets. Xiaoka and Ray Allen were leading the team at this time.

At 10 minutes and 51 seconds, the Clippers attacked, Xiaoka and Butler were on the outside. These two rookies this year performed very well in their respective teams.

After the two were on the field, the Clippers players quickly pulled away, creating a 1V1 opportunity for the two.

Butler changed direction and dribbled between his legs to find a breakthrough opportunity, but Xiaoka was completely the kind of defensive player who was as immovable as a mountain.

No matter how much you play, I will remain unmoved. Seeing Butler holding the ball for too long, Marion went to the top of the arc of the three-point line in the middle to prepare for the ball.

Butler took a look and passed the ball, but at the moment when the ball left his fingers, a pair of big hands were between the two of them, and the basketball was quickly slapped to the Clippers' half court.

After completing the steal, Kawhi Leonard shot out like a dragon, and a red lightning flashed out instantly. Butler turned around and chased him quickly.

In the end, Kawhi Leonard picked up the ball first and then rushed to the Clippers' basket.

Butler kept interfering with him, but Kawhi Leonard didn't care about anything. He took a step forward with a "snap" sound and Kawhi Leonard rose up against the wind.

This is going to be a dunk!

Kawhi Leonard raised his arm to burn the sky!

But Butler is also a very tough defensive player. The two jumped up almost at the same time, one in front and one behind.

In a flash, Butler finally retracted his hand. This ball was bound to be dunked, and he would only incur a foul. If he used too much force, it might cause the opponent to be injured.

"Bang"

With the whimper of the basket, Leonard stole the ball and dunked it!

This goal greatly boosted the morale of the Rockets. Although the team was currently behind, Kawhi Leonard still helped the team through his own efforts.

Butler immediately responded to Kawhi Leonard with a mid-range shot in the next round.

At 9 minutes and 12 seconds in the second quarter, the Rockets were 27-36 behind the Clippers.

Tang Yu replaced Jeremy Lin, and after returning to the court, Jeremy Lin immediately gave Durant an assist to help the Rockets stabilize the situation.

But this did not allow the Rockets to narrow the gap. Instead, the home team played a climax again in the next three minutes.

Coach Long's pass was elusive, helping the Clippers teammates score continuously.

At 6 minutes and 11 seconds, when Coach Long scored a layup, the Clippers led the Rockets by 15 points at home, 46-31.

This was the biggest deficit the Rockets faced since Jeremy Lin started.

Durant then started to score points in a row. When Jeremy Lin only made 1 of 7 in the first half, Durant stood up at this time.

At 5 minutes and 19 seconds, the Rockets passed the ball to Jeremy Lin after a series of passes. Oden blocked Rondo for him, and Jeremy Lin made a mid-range shot after taking a step across, scoring his 4th point of the game.

At 2 minutes and 18 seconds, the Rockets' offensive time was running out again. After Kawhi Leonard's offense was blocked, he passed the ball to Jeremy Lin. Facing Rondo's defense, Jeremy Lin hit a three-pointer at the buzzer.

The two teams played until the end of the half, and the Clippers, who were at Staples, led the Rockets by 19 points, 62-43, and entered the halftime break.

Mr. Joe was grinning from ear to ear on the sidelines. Leading the Rockets by 19 points in the half was something that no one had done for a long time, and he couldn't even remember which team did it last time.

Jeremy Lin only scored 7 points and 4 assists in the first half, and his 3-of-10 shooting percentage also set a new low for his shooting percentage.

Many commentators have begun to criticize Jeremy Lin's performance, believing that he was just a flash in the pan, and his true colors were revealed after meeting Rondo tonight.

Lin Shuhao did not look depressed when he returned to the locker room. Seeing that his teammates lacked confidence, he encouraged them.

"Guys, we will fight back! The game is not over yet. Don't forget that we are the defending champions and we are invincible!"

Lin Shuhao gave an impassioned speech, and everyone was shocked to see this rookie who was only in his second year.

Not long after... a round of applause rang out, and Tang Yu walked in.

"Jeremy said it well! I know it will be very difficult to fall behind so much at halftime, but think about it, compared to a boring big win, a great reversal will be more memorable!"

Tang Yu turned the tactical board and personally explained the tactical arrangement for the second half to the players. This was something that Tang Yu had not done for a long time during the halftime break, and it was usually handed over to Cassell to handle.

Compared with the unity of the Rockets locker room, in the Clippers locker room, Mr. Joe was happily dancing with a cigar.

"Guys, I see hope in you! You will soon dominate this league. Your vitality and energy will leave the defending champion helpless. Step over their corpses and you will dominate the league in the future!"

I don't know where I got a bottle of champagne. With a "bang", the old man drank a sip.

"Come on in the second half! Let's send the defending champion to hell!"
