NBA Tyrant
Chapter 84
The next day, November 18, the Rockets played the Knicks at home.
Da Yao and Maddy were both in very good form tonight, leading the score from the beginning of the first quarter until the end of the third quarter.
At this time, the Rockets 72:61 Knicks.
Heading into the fourth quarter with an 11-point double-digit lead.
Just when the Rockets thought they could give the main team some rest, replenish their physical strength, and wait for the second half of the fourth quarter to come back and make persistent efforts to take the game away.
The Knicks' Penny Hardaway teamed up with Ariza to hit three three-pointers in a row, plus two free throws from Marbury, the lone wolf.
The Knicks directly hit an 11-0 shockwave to tie the score and catch the Rockets off guard.
Rocket coach Van Gundy Jr. hurriedly asked for a timeout and replaced Da Yao and Maddy on the court.
It's a pity that the Knicks who have already gained momentum are no longer so easy to suppress, and they began to play back and forth with the Rockets' starting lineup, and the scores alternately lead.
Until the final 31 seconds of the game, the Rockets 92:90 the Knicks.
The Rockets have the ball, as long as they play steadily, in the last 6 seconds, they will hand over to Da Yao, who has been 3 of 3 in the fourth quarter, and score 2 points solidly.
With a 4-point lead, the Rockets don't have to worry about it even if the Knicks shoot a three-point lead, and they can still win by 1 point.
However, there will always be some accidents that change the direction of the situation and turn the ending that should have been doomed, which is why so many miracles in the NBA were born.
The Rockets chose to serve in the frontcourt, and everyone settled according to the manager's tactical arrangement.
Da Yao stood on the left side of the 45-degree three-point line, ready to receive Jackson's serve.
Maddie supported her knees with her hands at the 45-degree three-point line on the right side, and a pair of sleepy eyes squinted at Da Yao's back.
Maurice Taylor stands on the right outside the box.
Charlie Ward at the bottom left corner three-pointer.
The referee's whistle blows, and Da Yao blocks Muhammad and receives a pass from Jackson.
He then held the basketball high to prevent Muhammad from stealing, and waited until Charlie Ward ran from the bottom corner to hand him the ball.
Charlie Ward held the ball and took two steps back to prevent Marbury from getting tangled up and start pressing the clock.
Da Yao wanted to go down quickly, but Muhammad obviously wouldn't let Da Yao fall into a low position easily, and slowly retreated with Da Yao in hand-to-hand combat all the way.
In the end, Da Yao still managed to jam Muhammad on the inside, and this series of actions took 6 seconds.
Seeing that Da Yaoka was in good shape, Charlie Ward was about to pass the ball in.
But Crawford, who defended Jackson, actually let Jackson go two steps away.
Shrink in front of Da Yao and block the passing path between Charlie Ward and Da Yao.
Van Gundy Jr. immediately yelled for Jackson to run away and take Crawford in the other corner.
But the Knicks apparently guessed the Rockets' tactical arrangement, and when Jackson ran around the baseline to the other corner, Crawford unexpectedly didn't follow.
Instead, Cott Thomas was left alone to guard Rockets power forwards Taylor and Jackson, and Crawford simply stood directly in front of Da Yao.
Time is counting down second by second, and there are only 10 seconds left in the attack time, Da Yao gave up the card position and pointed directly at the big hand.
"Give T-MAC!" Da
Yao knew very well that he was sandwiched by the two of them one after the other, and it was impossible to receive the ball at all, but if the two were contained, the other teammates would definitely have a chance to vacate.
As a player who pays attention to the team and pays attention to winning, Da Yao is definitely not a lone wolf who must attack by himself with the ball.
Maddie, who was standing outside the three-point line, heard the voice, glanced at Da Yao with some surprise, and subconsciously reached out to catch the basketball.
This time, Maddie was ready to be a spectator, because the coach's tactic was to let Da Yao execute the attack as the first option.
The second is to let Maddie single Penny Hardaway, and the third is to find teammates who have open opportunities.
Maddie, who receives the pass, faces Hardaway in front of him.
This guard swingman, who also left the Magic team, the two competed for the whole game, and at the critical time, Maddy naturally wanted to score this goal and win the game.
Eight seconds later, Maddie observes the Knicks' defense.
In 7 seconds, Da Yao came to the top of the arc and stepped on the three-point line to block and dismantle.
In 6 seconds
, Maddie moved! With the help of Da Yao's high-quality cover, Maddie shook off Hardaway and rushed into the inside!
Muhammad followed closely to the side, outstretched his right hand, blocking Maddie's top of Maddie and interfering with Maddie's vision.
In 5 seconds, Maddie made a quick stop in the middle distance
! Da Yao rushed to the basket to get stuck in the basket! In 4 seconds, the basketball popped out
of the frame! Da Yao picked up a basketball in the air over his head across Thomas
! The Rockets' offensive time is over
! Entering the full-court time countdown, 10 seconds!
The basketball did not fly to Da Yao's
favorable position in the air, but was picked out of the right baseline.
9 seconds, because it was Da Yao who touched the ball last, Da Yao was desperate and rushed to the basketball in the air, but was stopped by the Knicks two insiders.
In 8 seconds, a figure reached out to take the lead in controlling the basketball in the air, and with the help of staying in the air, before landing outside the bounds, the ball was thrown to Thomas.
It was Crawford
! Da Yao was unwilling, and just wanted to grab the ball in Thomas's hand, but the Knicks hurriedly called a timeout! Da Yao
sat on the bench, although he was depressed, but he was not discouraged.
Now the Rockets are still the leading side, as long as they guard against the Knicks' last attack, the victory still belongs to the Rockets.
It depends on whether the Knicks choose to play a two-point tie or risk a three-pointer to kill the Rockets
! After a timeout, the Knicks serve in the frontcourt, and Thomas passes to Hardaway outside the bounds
! 7 seconds, Hardaway looks at the timer unhurriedly
! 6 seconds! 5 seconds!
At this time, everyone's attention is on Hardaway.
In 4 seconds, Hardaway lowered his center of gravity and made the appearance of forcing Maddie.
Maddie quickly lowered her center of gravity and opened her arms, her sleepy eyes were extra serious.
Three seconds later, Hardaway carried Maddie from the left 45-degree three-point line.
In 2 seconds, a black shadow suddenly rushed to the top of the arc
!1 second, Hardaway passed to the black
shadow! The black shadow jumped out of the three-point line, and jumped out after receiving the ball
! Boom! Boom!
Three-point shot up and down
!Rockets 92:93 Knicks
kill Rockets!
Da Yao, who was on the inside, was stunned for a moment, listened to the cheers of the Knicks players, looked at the scoreboard stiffly, and after confirming that he was killed, the whole person collapsed like a deflated ball!
Da Yao, who returned to the locker room and took a shower, sat down with a bench in front of his wardrobe, bowed his head and silently packed his things, ready to go home, and let Maddie go to the post-game press conference, and Da Yao didn't have the heart to participate at all.
Holding the phone in his hand and about to put it in his pocket, the phone vibrated a little.
......
Watching the Rockets being reversed again on the TV, Howard shook his head with a look of pity.
"Alas~ Both games were at the most critical time, no one stood up to kill the game, but gave the other party a chance to turn the tables, if it were me, I couldn't stand
it! I would be very entangled and depressed, it was really uncomfortable! I don't know how Da Yao is now, just now he seems to have no strength in his whole body. "
Howard is a little worried about Da Yao, this is the pillar of our Chinese basketball team, but we can't be mentally hit because of the NBA game.
"Let's send a message to Da Yao and encourage Da Yao!" He
Nuoyang sat on the side, also very worried about Da Yao.
"Hey! Yes, what Da Yao needs most at this time is the encouragement and support of his friends! Let's send messages to the past!" Howard
hurriedly picked up the mobile phone on the table, thought about it, and said: Da Yao, come on! Believe in yourself!
After about an hour, Howard, who was playing a game on the computer, suddenly saw the mobile phone on the computer desk light up, and quickly picked it up and looked at it.
It turned out to be
Da Yao!"Hey, Da Yao?"
Howard pressed the connect button directly, his voice a little uncertain.
"Hey, Howard, yes, I'm Da Yao! I'm calling you so late, I didn't bother you!" Da
Yao's slightly apologetic voice came from the phone.
"No, don't worry, I usually go to bed at 11 o'clock! Da Yao, do you have something to do with me?"
Howard thought about it, he really didn't know what Da Yao was calling him for, he and Da Yao had never even met.
"Yes, thank you in advance for your encouragement, I do have something I want to ask you! Ahem!"
Speaking of asking, Da Yao's voice became a little embarrassed.
"Haha, you're welcome, you said, I will help if I can!" It
seems that Da Yao has encountered some problems, and he actually thought of looking for me, which is really unexpected.
"That's right, now the Magic team is the absolute core, Francis is the second leader, but I know Francis's character very well
, with his temper, he can't easily submit to the second leader, I want to know how you, who are young and just a rookie, can control Francis?"
"Hmm... It's very simple! Show your strong strength and dominance, in the team training match, defeat and convince others, let them know the boundless gap with me
, so that they will also extinguish the idea of competing with me for the status of the team, the stronger you are, the more they respect you, their beautiful people are such urine! Only by being governed by stronger people will they settle down!".
Howard thought of the team training game before the start of the season, and in order to achieve the status of the team leader, he also spent a lot of thought and effort to calm Francis a little.
Later, in the regular season, as Francis said, he used his dominant performance on the field to completely make Francis the second leader.
"So! I think I probably know what to do, but, they? Haha
, Howard, aren't you a beautiful countryman?" seems to have found hope and a way, which made Da Yao's heart a little more cheerful, Da Yao accurately caught the loophole in Howard's speech, and Howard didn't even think that he was a beautiful countryman.
"Ahem... We, us, recently learned Chinese with He Nuoyang, and unconsciously regarded ourselves as Chinese!"
Accidentally said something leaky, Howard quickly made an excuse.
"However, Da Yao, it also needs frank communication between the two, as I told Francis, in addition to having a high or low strength with him, our goal is the same
, that is, to win! Francis is an outside player, so he naturally hopes to match a strong inside partner, and it just so happens that my strength is okay in the league
I let Francis know that it is not easy to have an inside partner of my level, and other big stars don't want it, so after Francis thinks it through himself, he will put down his mind of competitive status
, and according to what he said, he will cherish the opportunity to cooperate with me, work together, and get good results and honors!
Looking back now, Howard is quite magical, but he didn't expect the reckless Boss Fu to figure it out by himself and be willing to honestly play the role of the second master.
"Well, I see, thank you, Howard! If you have the chance, I will invite you to play in our Huaguo!" Da
Yao was at his home in Houston, thinking about how to communicate with Maddie would be better, Howard's method is a bit like the Chinese proverb, after giving people a stick, then give a sweet date.
First use your strength to convince you, then know your reasoning, and then draw a big pie to bind the two together in order to gain honor and achievement.
"Ha, then you have to be ready to invite me next year, I plan to go to China next year in the summer, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, West Lake, Zhangjiajie, I want to see many places!
Maybe Kobe Bryant will be with him!"
As soon as he heard that he was going to play in China, Howard's eyes immediately lit up, and in the past few years since Howard, Howard himself has never returned to China, and it is impossible to say that he doesn't miss it.
"Oh, it seems that Howard, you are quite interested in our Huaguo! No problem, remember to contact me when the time comes, and I will arrange arrangements for you in advance!"
Da Yao leaned back on the sofa, knowing for the first time that Howard was so enthusiastic about his country!
But Da Yao would never have imagined that the real Howard was actually the soul of a Chinese person.
However, the places Howard said did really want to go, because when he was a Chinese, Howard had never been to these famous tourist resorts.
As for why? In a simple word, poor
!"Okay! It's decided!"
For fear that Da Yao would regret it, Howard hurriedly set Da Yao's promise.
"Of course, it must be properly arranged, rest assured! It's not too early, Howard, I know you have a game tomorrow, why don't you do it first?"
"Okay, let's do it first! I wish you an end to your losing streak in advance, and win the game tomorrow!"
Howard glanced at the time, it was indeed almost 11 o'clock.
"Thank you, and I hope you continue to win and get 4 wins in a row, bye!".
