NBA: Starting with the undercut by Parker and Bowen
Chapter 46 The Last Sun
After losing at home to the Dallas Mavericks, the Rockets immediately began a four-game road trip in the Pacific Division.
I don't know who arranged the schedule, why didn't they include the Los Angeles Lakers as well, making it a five-game road trip?
This is about the Rockets team in multiple provinces.
Sigh... There's nothing I can do! It's still because I didn't have a godfather.
On November 26, the Houston Rockets will play against the Los Angeles Clippers on the road.
After a relatively uneventful game, the Rockets defeated the Clippers 88-71 by 17 points, getting off to a good start on their four-game road trip.
The following day, the Rockets moved to Phoenix, Arizona.
Upon arriving in Phoenix, Yao Ming and Yang Lin were invited and hosted by Steve Nash, an old acquaintance.
At Nash's villa, Yang Lin also saw his teammates Barbosa and Raja Bell.
Throughout the dinner, Yang Lin looked conflicted, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
Finally, Nash noticed something was wrong and asked, "Yang, is there something you want to say? Is the food not to your liking?"
Yang Lin thought to himself: I want to tell you, be careful of your Brazilian teammates.
However, he ultimately did not reveal what was on his mind.
After all, he didn't know much about Nash's future son and wasn't sure what the truth was.
It seems that things took a turn later, and his son, when he grew up, did indeed appear to be white.
Most importantly, the incident hasn't happened yet, and he doesn't know how to bring it up.
But don't worry, old monk!
If the incident occurs in the future and is confirmed to be true, I will use my "army of justice" to avenge you.
What?
What if it's fake?
Hello! Hello your wife! Hello your son!
It’s best if nothing happens!
Therefore, when Nash asked, Yang Lin made up an excuse and said:
"I'm thinking, your Suns' roster seems really strong. I wonder if we can get revenge for last time tomorrow."
"Haha~~ Don't think about the competition during your rest time."
Nash is actually quite satisfied with the Suns' current roster.
Last season, in the second round of the playoffs, if it weren't for that bastard Horry, they might have gotten past the Spurs.
If the subsequent situation remains unchanged.
They were confident they could easily defeat the Jazz in the Western Conference Finals and the Cavaliers in the NBA Finals, and win the championship.
Therefore, he felt that he could lead his teammates to another surge this season.
November 28, Phoenix West Arena.
After the visiting team players entered the court, Yang Lin carefully examined all the Suns players.
It must be said, the lineup is truly impressive.
"The Wind Rises" Steve Nash, "Little Giant" Amar'e Stoudemire, "The Matrix" Shawn Marion, Grant Hill...
Four of them have been All-Stars, and as many as seven have won individual league honors.
Just as Yang Lin was observing the Suns players, Yao Ming leaned over and asked curiously:
"Yang Lin, what are you looking at? A bunch of big black guys, what's so interesting? You should take a look at their cheerleaders, their figures are amazing!"
What the hell!
So this is what you're like, 226?
However, Yang Lin didn't dwell on these things, and instead honestly replied:
"The Suns have a really strong roster. It won't be easy for us to get revenge for what we did last time."
Yao Ming's playful smile vanished, replaced by a pained expression.
"They were already very strong last season, I didn't expect them to be able to sign Grant Hill to a minimum contract in the summer."
"What's even more surprising is that Hill is actually in pretty good form! The Suns really got a great deal."
Yang Lin slumped his shoulders, looking helpless.
There's no way!
Who can blame them when the sun has a miracle cure!
"Brother Yao, you'd better step up your game tonight. Don't slack off like you did last time. This is crucial for our chance to get revenge!"
"Don't worry, just you wait and see!"
Yao Ming patted his chest, expressing his full confidence.
However, he soon took out insurance for himself:
"Their style of play isn't suited for the playoffs. Even if we don't get revenge this time, we'll have plenty of opportunities to beat them in the future."
Yang Lin glanced at 226 without saying a word.
Hehe~~ My foolish Yao Ming!
This is the last sun.
If we miss this opportunity, there will never be another chance for revenge.
After being thrashed last time, Yang Lin reviewed the match schedules of both teams this season.
Before the All-Stars were discovered, this was their last matchup.
This means that when the two teams meet again, the Suns will look different.
"No, we must win this game."
Yang Lin held firm to his beliefs.
If he cannot avenge this last sun, he will feel miserable and frustrated for many days.
Both teams started their respective matches.
The visiting Rockets' starting five consisted of: Yang Lin, McGrady, Battier, Wilcox, and Yao Ming.
The home team, the Suns, consisted of five players: Nash, Raja Bell, Grant Hill, Marion, and Stoudemire.
Compared to their last encounter, both teams have had injured players return, making their current rosters more complete.
To the Rockets' surprise, the home team, the Suns, gave them a rude awakening after the game started.
In the first three rounds, they were given a 7-0 run.
Suns' first three possessions: Nash assists Stoudemire for a mid-range jumper, Nash assists Raja Bell for a three-pointer, Marion steals the ball and assists Stoudemire for a fast break dunk;
The Rockets' first three possessions: McGrady's pull-up jumper missed, McGrady's drive was blocked, and Yao Ming's low post possession was stolen.
Seeing his team suffer a major setback at the start of the game, Adelman on the sidelines shouted, "Play it safe, try to get a high success rate!"
Yang Lin received Battier's inbound pass from the baseline. As he crossed the center line, he encountered Yao Ming, who was leisurely crossing half-court. He couldn't help but jokingly remark:
"Brother Yao, your Rookie of the Year was really something!"
No, you're criticizing your own people too?
Yao Ming looked at Yang Lin with a surprised expression.
He then composed himself and said with feigned disdain, "Don't try to provoke me, you surnamed Yang."
But his body behaved well, and his pace noticeably quickened.
As they reached the three-point line, Yao Ming's deep voice reached Yang Lin's ear: "Yang, you did it! Watch me take him down."
Ha~~ He says one thing but does another!
Yang Lin's lips curled up slightly, his face showing a smug satisfaction at his successful scheme.
Little Tyrant has its advantages, and Great Wall of China has its own strategy.
Yao Ming moved to the low post and began to battle with Stoudemire.
With his greater weight and strength, Yao Ming quickly positioned himself next to Stoudemire and took control of the left low post.
"Yang Lin, ball!"
Before he finished speaking, the orange basketball had already flown into Yao Ming's hands.
He positioned himself with his left hand and held the ball with his right.
Yao Ming quickly scanned the game situation on the court, assessing the possible offensive and defensive changes that might occur next.
Battier is with Nash at the right corner three-point line;
Wilcox moved up to the right arc to set an off-ball screen for McGrady, drawing Marion and Hill away;
After Yang Lin passed the ball, he pulled away with Raja Bell and created a wide gap.
No interference in the short term, perfect!
The attack begins.
Yao Ming first launched two probing attacks, followed by a solid physical collision.
After Stoudemire was bounced away, Yao Ming quickly turned to the right.
Little Tyrant tried to struggle, but immediately steadied himself and stepped forward again to block the way.
Yao Ming caught the ball, ignoring the long arms in front of him, and jumped up to slam the ball towards the basket.
"pong~~"
Stoudemire made a successful dunk and was knocked to the floor.
After landing, Yao Ming, looking down at the fallen Stoudemire, roared loudly:
"You can't stop me! I'm the top scholar!"
