Chapter 179: Team Rocket

Zhao Wei patted his forehead speechlessly, and said lightly: "How do you know that I don't like her?" ”

"She said it!" Lucy said innocently. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"You believe what she says, people's hearts are unpredictable." Zhao Wei said old-fashionedly.

"That's why you're so hateful." Lucy pursed her mouth and looked at Zhao Wei with resentment.

"Uh, what's wrong with me again." Zhao Wei said speechlessly.

"Because you're hateful." Lucy looked at him and said unabashedly, "Deceive the girl's heart." ”

"Ugh." Zhao Wei felt that he couldn't continue, and if he continued, Lucy didn't know what he could say today. It's definitely a lot more serious than a cuckold. Zhao Wei pulled his legs and left, wanting to escape quickly.

Lucy gave hot chase and shouted, "Go and see." ”

Zhao Wei didn't speak, but made an OK gesture.

It seems that Zhao Wei doesn't care, but when Zhao Wei left the stadium, he made a phone call to Kylie Jenner.

On the other end of the phone, Kylie Jenner answered the phone, although her mood didn't sound very happy, but when Zhao Wei asked her to dinner, she still readily agreed.

Zhao Wei made an appointment with her to have dinner together after playing the Rockets game.

To say that he asked Kylie Jenner to eat, Zhao Wei didn't mean to.

Lucy asked him to ask Kylie Jenner, but he couldn't get through the phone, so he asked directly.

"Ah, I heard that there is a Middle Eastern tyrant who wants to buy your first night, can you sell it?"

Don't even think about it, as long as Zhao Wei dares to ask this, then Kylie Jenner will definitely kill Zhao Wei.

confirmed that Kylie Jenner was fine, and let himself have an extra meal for no reason. Zhao Wei was a little unhappy and blamed Lucy in his heart.

"Are you coming to menopause?" When he saw Lucy, Zhao Wei said directly in the first sentence.

Lucy was stunned, then became angry and shouted angrily: "Zhao Wei, I'm going to kill you." ”

Here, the Lakers are bustling and noisy packing up their things and heading to Houston to prepare for the game against the Rockets.

Houston, on the other hand, is even more lively, with media outlets from ZG already taking action a few days ago.

Use their brains to create as many gimmicks as they can for this contest.

One by one, the news from insiders was revealed.

"Morey of the Rockets took the initiative to say that when he was drafted, he actually took a fancy to Zhao Wei, but unfortunately their draft pick was too late and was intercepted by the Lakers."

"The door to Team Rocket is always open for you."

"Zhao Wei said before the draft that the interested team was the Rockets, but unfortunately the Lakers took the lead."

Zhao Wei has missed a lot of games before, so naturally these people will come up with it as a gimmick.

"Zhao Wei is not happy with the Lakers."

"There was a conflict within the team, and Zhao Wei was banned by the team."

……

Of course, the gimmick of the derby battle also has to be stirred up, which is the easiest thing to make people look forward to and miss the feelings.

Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian's derby match that year was naturally taken out.

The titles of the new generation of Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian were crowned on their heads.

Of course, there are also some eyewitnesses who will naturally appear.

Zhao Wei and the Rockets players ate together, practiced together in the summer, and other various news reports occupied almost the entire page.

Zhao Wei sat silently on the back seat.

Zhao Wei sat there today and looked very quiet, and it was a little too dull compared to the usual time he frolicked with everyone on the plane.

Lucy, who was sitting beside Zhao Wei coldly, felt that the atmosphere on Zhao Wei's side was a little wrong at this time.

Lucy secretly glanced at Zhao Wei's side, and saw that Zhao Wei's eyes were slightly closed, his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and one hand was constantly rubbing the palm of the other hand.

Lucy saw that something was wrong and poked Zhao Wei lightly.

Zhao Weiming's eyes opened, he didn't speak, and looked at Lucy with a little question.

"What's wrong with you?" Lucy's tone was still a little cold, but she could hear that she was a little concerned.

"It's fine." Zhao Wei shook his head slightly.

"Cut!" Lucy pursed her mouth and glared at Zhao Wei with some dissatisfaction.

"Am I that obvious?" Zhao Wei smiled stupidly, knowing that he had also passed a little.

"Hmm." Lucy nodded affirmatively.

Seeing Zhao Wei's reaction, Lucy no longer bothered with Zhao Wei. She understands this truth very well, freezing three feet is not a day's work.

Lucy got up and came to Zhao Wei's side and pushed Zhao Wei inside.

Zhao Wei looked at her, but still moved inside.

Lucy sat next to Zhao Wei before she spoke: "You are not the kind of person who wears everything on his face. But you look like someone else today. What makes you so nervous? ”

"Team Rocket!" Zhao Wei said it truthfully.

"What happened to Team Rocket?" Lucy looked at Zhao Wei suspiciously.

"You know ZG, right?" Zhao Wei asked lightly.

Lucy glared at Zhao Wei like a fool, and said angrily: "I have lived with you for so many years, how can I not know!" I can be counted as half a ZG person myself. Although Lucy spoke quickly, when she talked about you, Lucy's eyes still flashed with sadness and memory.

"Do you know why a country that is so big doesn't have any reaction to me playing in the NBA?" Zhao Wei said lightly.

"Why?" Lucy looked at Zhao Wei seriously, she knew that Zhao Wei was going to talk to herself, this was the first time Zhao Wei really opened her mind to her, how could she not be serious, and at the same time, Lucy's heart showed a happy smile.

"It's because of Team Rocket." A hint of disappointment flashed in Zhao Wei's seemingly indifferent eyes.

"What does it have to do with them. Isn't it okay for you to play well with the Lakers? Lucy said quietly.

"But what player doesn't want to be noticed by his country." Zhao Wei said wistfully.

"Hmm." Lucy nodded approvingly, although she didn't know much about this, but she thought of the Brazilian media reporters who appeared at home every home game.

They all came for their home country Hurtas, who is not a major rotation player in the team and might not even play a game if it weren't for the team's extensive injury problems. And as soon as Huertas is on the field, every fan in Brazil will be able to see him.

"So what does this have to do with Team Rocket?" Lucy still couldn't understand how these two things could be connected.

"You'll know when you get there." Zhao Wei suddenly stopped talking, lay back for a while, and slowly closed his eyes.

She didn't say anything, and Lucy didn't ask any more questions, just sat next to Zhao Wei and lay down.

When the plane arrived in Houston, the two were woken up.

The two found themselves sleeping with their heads resting on their heads.

Zhao Wei didn't speak, got up and left quickly, looking at his back, it was more like a bit of escape.

Lucy looked at his back and laughed.

When she first got off the plane, Lucy hadn't realized anything, but when the whole team arrived at their training gym, Lucy noticed that something was wrong.

There are a lot of yellow-skinned faces in the entire media, and these people are all coming for Zhao Wei, but the questions asked before Zhao Wei actually linked Zhao Wei and Team Rocket.

There was even a reporter who directly asked Zhao Wei if he would join the Rockets in the future!

And at the same time, on the side of the Rockets on the other side, Morey, the general manager of the Rockets, appeared.

As soon as Morey appeared, he immediately threw an olive branch to Zhao Wei.

"As the favorite team of all ZG fans, I think Zhao Wei will definitely go home, because only at home can he get the best growth and help him succeed."

Lucy listened to these inexplicable interviews and looked at Zhao Wei's increasingly gloomy face.

When a boss who came out of nowhere invited Zhao Wei to shoot an advertisement, Zhao Wei completely broke out.

The boss's advertising cost to Zhao Wei is very high, but the problem lies in the content of the advertisement, the advertisement requires Zhao Wei to shoot with his teammates, but the teammates are not Zhao Wei's teammates in the Lakers, but are replaced by players on the Rockets' side, and Zhao Wei also has to wear the Rockets' uniform.

Zhao Wei was angry, glared at the boss angrily, and Zhao Wei turned around angrily. After leaving, Zhao Wei seemed to disappear in front of everyone, and never appeared on any occasion until the game began.

The match attracted countless eyeballs, and the entire stadium was packed.

When Zhao Wei entered the court with the team, he saw a video of Yao Ming playing in the arena when he was on the Rockets.

Accompanied by the enthusiastic shouts of the fans, the momentum is magnificent, and at the end of the video, a passage in the video ignites the fuse.

"Welcome home. Zhao Wei. ”

The young people on the Lakers' side glanced at Zhao Wei with different expressions.

Luke Wharton narrowed his eyes slightly at this time, glanced at his team lightly, and did not speak, but smiled faintly at Zhao Wei.

Zhao Wei looked at the subtitles on the big screen above his head, and the corners of his mouth raised, revealing an evil smile.

Although he was unwilling, he knew that the goal of the Rockets had been achieved, after all, the Lakers were some young people, seeing such a scene, since arriving in Houston, no matter who he heard from his mouth, it was rumors between the Rockets and Zhao Wei.

At this time, they had already begun to suspect that Zhao Wei was secretly negotiating with Team Rocket.

The Houston Rockets, a team that was once at the bottom of the league in terms of strength and owner value. The NBA is a business league, and it's hard to talk about loyalty in this league. Many players have dedicated themselves to the top of their careers for some teams, but end up being traded by the team in the face of commercial interests. To talk about ruthlessness and betrayal, Team Rocket can be at the forefront of this league.

The name Rockets veteran is the one most heard by fans in this league. Of course, it's normal for ordinary players to be traded.

However, for those superstars or those who have made a significant contribution to the team, many teams will still be loyal to those players.

For example, Kobe Bryant, the great superstar, suffered a series of serious injuries in the final period of his career, and everyone knew that Kobe Bryant could not reach the level he once had after recovering from injury at this age, but the Lakers' management still gave Kobe a maximum salary without any consideration, and everyone knew why, just to repay Kobe's contribution and loyalty.

Nowitzki, another superstar, Nowitzki won the team's first championship for the Mavericks, the aging Nowitzki's competitive level continued to decline, and he was on the verge of retirement, but just at the end of the 15-16 season, when he was ready to sign the last contract, the Mavericks owner Cuban immediately offered a two-year 50 million contract, even though Nowitzki was 38 years old at this time.

That's how Cuban paid for his star's contribution to the team, as well as taking multiple pay cuts to improve the team's roster.

Duncan, the greatest power forward, dedicated his entire career to the Spurs, and the Spurs players went one after another, but Duncan was always cherished by them.

Garnett, a power forward on par with Duncan, even though Garnett did not have a team for the rest of his life, but this team never hated Garnett for leaving in pursuit of a championship, and after Garnett was old, he resolutely traded the veteran back and let him live with the Timberwolves. This is to repay Garnett's dedication to the Timberwolves for so many years.

The list goes on.

There are a lot of stars, but there are only 30 teams, and basically every team has performed like this.

And the Rockets are the only exception in this league. There has never been a team that is not in the process of rebuilding and there has been such a big turnover of players every year.

Olajuwon, the two-time champion, led the Rockets to seize the opportunity in the two years after Jordan's first retirement, defeated strong opponents and won two consecutive championships.

What a great achievement, and how many NBA players now want to be mentored by Olajuwon.

But such a great player did not end up dying in the team he gave everything to.

Between the aging Olajuwon and money, the Rockets resolutely chose money, and Olajuwon went to the Toronto Raptors.

At this time, the boss Alexander was just a boss who was not too rich, and it may be understandable to choose money.

But back to the days of the previous superstars.

In 2002, the Rockets ushered in a turning point in their history.

They got the year's No. 1 pick, and the player they drafted is the only one who has been mentioned on occasions with the Rockets and ZG until now, Yao Ming.

Yao Ming was smart and talented, and quickly became a superstar-caliber super center, while the Rockets also acquired Maddy.

Yao Ming brought not only talent to the Rockets, but also more money.

Countless ZG partners have come to the door of the rocket and helped the rocket open its faΓ§ade in the ZG market.

Yao Ming became ZG's signature in the NBA, and Yao Ming also became the Rockets' signature in ZG at the same time.

Alexander quickly became one of the richest owners in the NBA.

Such a rapid riches made the Rockets taste the sweetness, and they continued to cooperate with ZG.

But the so-called cooperation, under a careful look, it is not difficult to find that it is tired.

What ZG hopes most is that their country's basketball can be in line with international standards, continue to improve, and become a world powerhouse.

The Rockets are the team in the world's highest basketball league, and what they do best is basketball.

And they have been doing it for more than ten years, and they have not trained a basketball player for ZG until now.

Take this season and Zhao Wei to participate in the draft for a year, and Zhou Qi, who was finally selected by the Rockets.

Zhou Qi's skills and body are not up to the current NBA level, and NBA training can indeed help Zhou Qi grow rapidly, and when Zhou Qi came to the Rockets to train, the Rockets actually drove Zhou Qi and his team back with the idea that they were going to start preparing for the season.

Was it because he was afraid that Zhou Qi would learn and expose their tactics or learn the secrets of their training? (To be continued.) )
