NBA: Yao Ming at his peak returns to his rookie season

Yao Ming swears he didn't use any special abilities!

Yao Ming was standing there at that moment.

Glenn Robinson was found to have fallen asleep immediately.

The reason was that he had just given Glenn Robinson a shoulder bump, which is not even a foul at this point.

Glenn Robinson hesitated for a moment, then obediently handed over the ball, which Yao Ming then stole.

But when Yao Ming dribbled back, Glenn Robinson was still planning to defend in the paint.

Even the dirty squatting toilet under the basket.

This was the dregs of defense in the 90s. Whenever you attacked the basket or intended to dunk, the defender crouching under the basket could simply move forward slightly and knock you over.

McGrady was taught a lesson by Pippen, but luckily Pippen wasn't serious and pulled McGrady back so he wouldn't get hurt.

Glenn Robinson also intended to teach Yao Ming a lesson, just like Pippen did, but unfortunately he overestimated his body, which had been largely ruined by alcohol and women.

Yao Ming grabbed the ball and slammed it down on the dunk.

Glenn Robinson then lay down on the ground.

"Is this... a staged accident?" Francis leaned closer. "Didn't we agree to play three-ball?"

"What are you waiting for? Move aside and give him some air. Go get some water, quick!" Yao directed the crime scene.

Glenn Robinson was, after all, a former number one draft pick.

So I woke up a few minutes later.

He gulped down two large vials of oral liquid water before finally recovering completely: "Damn it, Yao, are you trying to kill me?!"

Glenn Robinson wailed, "I almost thought I'd run into Shaq!"

The young players around them almost burst out laughing.

This guy is probably the one who got beaten up the worst by Yao Ming!

Yao Ming's training volume speaks for itself.

Moreover, he is a gentle person.

It's rare to see such a brutal and violent dunk. Glenn Robinson took the full force of Yao Ming's impact head-on. With Yao Ming's current skills, he could easily generate an impact force three times his body weight.

Glenn Robinson dislikes training and is a very annoying person. On the first day of training in Houston, he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow, which made him lose face and dignity.

What's worse is when Coach Tomás announced the starting lineup.

Glenn Robinson is not going to start in the next game.

He himself was naturally very dissatisfied.

How could someone like Stephen Jackson, some nobody in some obscure corner, possibly be compared to him?

Unfortunately, Coach Tang's tone was strict, while Yao Ming was considering continuing 1-on-1 training.

Glenn Robinson successfully backed down.

Glenn Robinson still retains more than half of his current ability, but unfortunately he is not willing to go all out or play well; he only intends to get a big contract.

Yao Ming gave him two taps, and it seemed as if some attribute of his suddenly had been unlocked.

I'm actually quite impressed with Yao Ming.

Not only did he participate in the afternoon's training match, but he also made two crucial passes to Yao Ming, and his touch was surprisingly good.

But Glenn Robinson's pass seemed to trigger something in Francis.

Francis is a point guard who doesn't like to pass the ball; he prefers to just swing it himself rather than pass it.

But after Glenn Robinson passed the ball, he actually made a few passes himself.

Before Yao Ming could even react...

Glenn Robinson and Francis have already engaged in a heated exchange, hurling insults at each other right there on the court!

Francis had previously worked with Glenn Robinson on escort services, but their past friendship, built on playing sports together, vanished instantly.

The two of them were swearing venomously.

Yao Ming hooked the ball into the basket, and looking at the two arguing, he felt like the world was ending.

Two days after the Christmas battle.

The Rockets will host their next opponent.

Timberwolves.

After the Christmas Day game, the fans' enthusiasm waned somewhat, as they needed to save their energy for the upcoming All-Star game.

The fans all kept their votes.

However, the game between the Timberwolves and the Rockets still attracted a lot of attention. Garnett has had an outstanding season, leading the scoring and rebounding lists, with high efficiency and a good team record.

He is the second player in the new century to have a chance to win a Grand Slam in a single season, the first being superstar Shaquille O'Neal.

Garnett is incredibly popular right now, even surpassing that low-key guy from the Spurs.

Yao Ming's popularity remains high even after the Christmas Day game!

Although the game was not broadcast live across the United States.

However, these two players have garnered tremendous attention, even surpassing some of last season's playoff favorites. In Minnesota, where the north wind is howling, a large number of media and fans have gathered!

This is Glenn Robinson's first game since the transfer. He's been much better behaved since being taught a lesson last time, but he's still throwing a tantrum. After all, someone of his stature is playing as a substitute in Houston.

Without Yao Ming's "friendly intimidation" (communication), he might have been spouting nonsense in front of the media.

But now, he doesn't dare.

Glenn Robinson is no longer the ambitious man he once was. Calling him a piece of trash is an understatement, but calling him a "waste" wouldn't be a problem either.

Like Kemp, he still retains the physical attributes of a star player, but he no longer has the ambition of one.

Tomjanovic is taking today's game against the Timberwolves very seriously.

With Yao Ming's winning streak, the Rockets have risen from 11th to 9th in the Western Conference and have a chance to make the playoffs. The Timberwolves, despite their strong roster, are only fifth in the West.

The regular season is a test for both sides.

The Timberwolves have a star-studded roster this season, featuring not only their star player Kevin Garnett, but also defensive anchor Kendall, the "madman" Sprewell, small forward Anthony Pierre, and point guard Troy Hudson.

The thickness of their bench is something Houston can only envy.

The Timberwolves have two players on their bench who average 10+ points per game!

Of course, the Timberwolves' salaries this season have also officially exceeded the salary cap.

They became the fifth team in the league to pay the luxury tax.

After the game started, the Timberwolves quickly showed the spirit of a championship team.

They weren't the kind of "championship team" that the Rockets hyped up. The Timberwolves during Garnett's era were genuinely willing to spend money, and their roster was built with real investment.

Coupled with Harden's burning desire for the championship, the Timberwolves played extremely aggressively.

The ball was passed from Hudson to Sprewell at the start of the game.

It would be quite a challenge for Stephen Jackson to fight the Madman now. Although Sprewell is not in his prime, he can easily get past the young Martial Saint.

Sprewell's mid-range fast break: he's already at the free-throw line, his hand already high in a lobbed shot!

Sprewell forced his way in from a distance of more than 2 meters.

They didn't give Yao Ming a chance to fill in.

Goal!

Sprewell arrogantly gestured with his eyes at Yao Ming.

This is a provocation!

【Sir Knight, while suppressing a rebellion in Minnesota, you encountered provocation from a notorious local thug leader】

[Clean up the scavengers!]

[Each time the host scores a point over Sprewell in this match, an additional 10% kill value will be triggered.]

[Winning a match or having a kill count exceeding 80 triggers an additional reward]

Ah!

The Timberwolves have a top-tier center, Kevin Garnett.

However, he was not a matchup against Yao Ming.

Therefore, the kill threshold system has not been triggered.

Unexpectedly, after being provoked, it was triggered in Sprewell.

Originally, Yao Ming didn't plan to play aggressively, since he wanted a winning streak. However, with Sprewell doing this, Yao Ming had to change his playing style.

The big dog on the bench, sitting next to Coach Tomjanovich, sneered, "Coach Rudy, you should have let me play. If I were on defense, that kid would never have had a chance to provoke Yao!"

Tang Shuai was very reluctant to talk to the big dog.

He had just argued with Dawson, calling the old man blind and incompetent.

They even recruited a guy who's so lazy when it comes to training to join the team.

Dawson's answer nearly infuriated Tomjanovich; he actually told him, "Even Rodman was won over by Jordan, you need to have faith in the team!"

Tang Shuai really had a hard time holding back, just to avoid having a sudden illness in Dawson's office and scaring that bastard to death!
