Chapter 1120: Yao Ming's 'Difficult' Decision!

Summers in Seattle are always busy.

And this year, it's even more lively.

Because Yao Ming is here now, because Yao Ming said, he will not let everyone wait for a long time, and he will definitely decide where he will go after the free signing market opens, so after the draft is over, almost everyone has set their eyes on Seattle and Yao Ming.

In Seattle now, you will meet a Chinese who may be a journalist anytime and anywhere.

At Yao Ming's level, the media around the world is paying attention.

But it is the Chinese journalists who are most concerned.

Since Yao Ming and Ye Si tied for MVP, and the Rockets sowed discord up and down, fans and media across China have no good feelings about each other, and now fans and media all over China are looking forward to Yao Ming taking back his life and taking the Seattle SuperSonics into account again.

I also hope that Yao Ming can lobby Yao Ming to change his mind and join the SuperSonics these days in Seattle.

"Why can't we go in?"

"If American reporters can't go in, why can't we Chinese reporters go in?!"

Outside the training hall at the University of Washington, the Chinese reporters on the inner and outer floors were all gathered outside the gate of the training hall at this time, and it was useless for the Chinese reporters to protest.

Because of Yes, in Seattle, in the HyperSonics, at the University of Washington, Chinese journalists are almost unimpeded.

Even when it's a closed-door training session during the Seattle SuperSonics Finals, they can go in.

But this time, Yao Ming visited the University of Washington, but he didn't let them in.

Now it's boiling outside the training hall at the University of Washington.

And inside the University of Washington, it's just as lively.

"Nima's, I really didn't expect Cole to come to this trick?!"

"This is too black-hearted, isn't it?!"

"What about fair competition?!"

Webster is now looking rather ugly on the sidelines of the training ground.

Regarding Yao Ming's recruitment efforts, the Timberwolves, Trail Blazers, Clippers, and Warriors are basically equidistant.

Yao Ming said that before July 1, he would give a separate day to all the teams that were not rejected by him.

Therefore, in order to get bigger chips during this time, everyone is crazy to improve their chips.

In addition to the Timberwolves, which is a very strong team, the Trail Blazers, Clippers, and Warriors have a lot of movements.

Especially the Clippers.

But at the critical moment when everyone increased their chips in order to get Yao Ming, the Warriors actually played such a game!

If it weren't for the fact that Mattle Webster was a Seattle native, I am afraid that he would really be secretly exposed by the Warriors.

In fact, even if he sends the news back to the Trail Blazers that the Warriors have invited Yao Ming to play with the University of Washington, it will be too late.

Because the players of the Trail Blazers can't organize a team to play a game with Yao Ming in the past few days!

Everyone is improving their strength openly and relying on strength to attract Yao Ming, but Nima's Cole plays such a play, relying on bragging and patting horses, and the whole team plays a game around Yao Ming to make Yao Ming feel false prosperity.

Everyone is an NBA player, who wouldn't revolve around one player?!

Yes can feed Rondo as the MVP scoring champion!

A player of Yao Ming's level, if you really have to be fed by the team, you don't want anything?!

Yao Ming was fed comfortably, and felt that he was very suitable for the Warriors, the key is that when it comes to the NBA arena, the Warriors can't win the game at all by feeding Yao Ming like this!

The Warriors' style of play is just beating the University of Washington!

Although the truth is reasonable.

But there is no way, Yao Ming eats this set very much!

Seeing Yao Ming constantly high-fives Curry, Klay Thompson, Mike Beasley, Green and others on the court, Webster on the sidelines was really worried about his Trail Blazers.

Even if it's Yao Ming, he still likes to tout and praise!

This kind of thing of playing ball with the leader, as a leader, it must be comfortable!

Webster was now on the sidelines in a hurry like an ant on a hot pan.

Yes watched this game and felt quite enjoyable.

And Roy, who was next to Yes, was frowning all the time.

In this practice game, the Warriors are Yao Ming, Dream Chasing, Beasley, Klay Thompson, and Curry.

On the University of Washington side are Spencer Hawes, Tristan Thompson, Kawhi Leonard, Kyrie Irving and Isaiah Thomas.

The quality of these players at the University of Washington is actually quite good.

Although there is no reference value in saying that such a game is won or lost.

In this game, the Warriors and Yao Ming's style of play may not be able to play in the NBA, but this game still has a high reference value.

Especially for Yao Ming.

After Yao Ming successfully lost weight, he was a mobile big center with both big center attributes and mobile attributes.

Yao Ming has no shortcomings now.

Perhaps the only downside is that he still relies heavily on his teammates.

The big center can't hold the ball for a long time, and it's no problem to break through one-on-one players with the ball, but it's hard to really break through a dragon like Yes, Rose, and even Yi Jianlian.

To put it in layman's terms, a big center does not have too strong the ability to launch an attack on his own.

Yao Ming and O'Neill are actually like this.

They have an unparalleled deterrent, whether it is on the offensive end or the defensive end, deterrence, containment, it is simply against the sky.

And this kind of deterrence and containment power requires the cooperation of various teammates.

If there are no players who can pass the ball for them, they will not get the ball to death, and no matter how strong they are, it is useless.

If they use the deterrent to pass the ball and their teammates can't shoot, the defensive pressure on them will increase, and no matter how strong they are, it will be useless.

Therefore, Ye Si knows very well what Yao Ming is looking at in this game.

He's definitely not a bad guy who wants to be a leader.

Yao Ming is seriously feeling whether these Warriors players can really provide him with the needs he wants.

"Curry's pass to Yao was better than my pass to Yao."

Roy, who had been frowning, watched Curry appear on the court again and threw the basketball into the sky with a very risky hand, Yao Ming directly relayed it in the air, and finally Roy also sighed.

"You are more stable than him, and he is more suitable for Yao Ming than you."

Ye Si nodded.

Who is better at passing the ball between Roy and Curry?

It's hard to compare.

Curry's passing style is more like him, he likes to pass dangerous balls, and he is not as sticky as Roy, who is not actually sticky, but Roy is an old-school player, and old-school players like to dribble after getting the ball.

I hope that after my teammates are in place, I don't have a chance to play singles and pass the ball again.

It's habit.

But he and Curry basically don't have that habit.

The waiting of the old-school defenders will not only allow Yao Ming to find a more comfortable receiving position, but also allow the defenders to find a better defensive position.

If it's a player whose strengths aren't so obvious, that's really better.

But Yao Ming's height advantage is too huge.

The pass to Yao Ming doesn't need to be so steady at all, just like Kobe's pass to O'Neal, if you want to be hairy, just jump up and smash it under the basket, that dead fat man can overturn all the players who steal the ball with him!

Yao Ming is the same, Yao Ming doesn't have O'Neill's strength, but Yao Ming's height and agility are simply invincible!

Throwing the ball into the sky is definitely better than after making Yao Ming and the defenders go crazy.

In the Chinese team, Yao Ming has never been tired.

But back in the NBA, why is Yao Ming always tired?

Because after returning to the NBA, whether it was Maddie or Roy who passed the ball to her, it was very old-fashioned.

Yao Ming has too many meaningless positions in the NBA.

It took a long time to be in the position, and it took half a day to consume, and finally Maddie pulled it out......

This Nima is not only tired physically, but also mentally.

Roy, although not as obvious as Maddie, is also a type.

And Ye Si and Curry's pass to Yao Ming is not like this, Yao Ming does not need to sit on the opportunity, as long as there is an opportunity, he will pass, and the ability to throw the ball into the air, Ye Si said first, Curry, who learns him everywhere, is estimated to be second.

Yes could see that Yao Ming was very satisfied with the Warriors players in this practice game.

And the Warriors didn't just pass Yao Ming to make Yao Ming more comfortable.

In terms of using Yao Ming's huge deterrent, the Warriors players are also strong against the sky!

When Yao Ming receives a pass from Curry or Green on the inside, if Yao Ming has no way to dunk or attack at the first time, it will naturally cause the opponent to shrink.

And when the opponent shrinks, Curry and Klay Thompson stand outside the three-point line, and Mike Beasley stands in the middle distance.

Can you imagine what a horrible situation this would be?!

According to the style of play of the warriors and Yao Ming in this game.

As long as Yao Ming appears under the basket, he basically doesn't score directly, that is, he passes the ball to assist.

Yao Ming has never played so well in the Rockets, in the NBA, even in the Chinese team!

In this game, Yao Ming's height advantage and deterrent transformation are simply outrageous!

"The game is over, 100-45, the Warriors win!"

At the end of the game, at halftime, the Warriors scored 55 points from the University of Washington!

The difference in strength between the two teams is too huge, and the Warriors players are serious, while the University of Washington players are not serious.

But the feeling that Yao Ming felt in this game still made him quite unsatisfied after the game.

For the first time, in the NBA, he actually had the feeling of being unfinished when he was partnered with Yes in the national team!

Yao Ming is not a player who pursues statistics, but after the game, he looked at his half-court technical statistics......

20 points, 10 rebounds, 20 assists......

Looking at this data, Yao Ming even had a feeling that he was not dreaming.

Look over to the players at the University of Washington.

Spencer Hoys...... NBA star-caliber player.

Tristan Thompson...... Quite talented young player.

Cowai Leonard...... This year's No. 4 show.

Irving...... In this game, Curry was very uncomfortable on the offensive end, and his strength and talent were also very good.

Isaiah Thomas ...... This game, like Irving, took turns to beat Curry very hard.

These five players are not an NBA-level team, but they are definitely not amateurs.

Moreover, he Yao Ming has been in the NBA for so many years, and there may be a gap in the intensity of the game, but the feeling of this kind of game is completely different.

Warrior......

Yao Ming looked at the Warriors players who were also happy and excited to rush towards him, and there was a lot more emotion in his eyes.

At the same time, Yao Ming once again stretched out his right hand.

Looking at Yao Ming, who was high-five the Warriors players one by one after the game, the expression on Kerr's face was very satisfied.

He could see that Yao Ming was satisfied with these players of the Warriors.

Similarly, he could see that the Warriors' players were very satisfied with Yao Ming!

This talent, this selflessness, this deterrent, this all-round ability on both offensive and defensive ends is simply the perfect center tailored for the Warriors!

Of course, he must be more satisfied with Yao Ming than the Warriors players.

"Let's go, this place doesn't belong to us anymore."

Seeing that Yao Ming and the Warriors players were communicating on the court, Ye Si said to Roy beside him.

Roy gritted his teeth and sighed and followed Yes away.

He originally wanted to make a final effort to persuade Yao Ming to keep him in the rocket.

But after this training match, Roy knew that there was no hope......

"Yao Ming has left 100%, what about your next stop?"

Looking at the familiar locker room, leaning against the familiar and cold wall, Roy sighed.

He worked hard last season.

But in the west, it is clear that the efforts of one person alone are no longer enough......

If you stay in the rocket in order to find a better future, it is the worst option.

But......

"I'm ready to renew my contract with the Rockets."

After Roy finished speaking, Ye Si nodded.

"I see."

Yao Ming was very satisfied with this partnership with the Warriors, even when he returned to Yes's house, he was still talking to Yes about the beautiful moments of partnering with the Warriors.

Ye Si had never seen Yao Ming so happy.

On the other side, Doug Rivers, who came to Seattle with Paul and Nick Young, was stunned to hear this hand from Kerr and the Warriors!

Fortunately, the Warriors have the inside response on the Warriors' side, and the Clippers have it too.

Doug Reeves hurriedly passed the relationship between Nick Young and Yes, hoping to invite Yao Ming to also cooperate with Nick Young and Chris Paul.

Yao Ming agreed.

And the Timberwolves and Trail Blazers, who didn't react so quickly, could only watch from the sidelines.

As the day of Yao Ming's decision got closer and closer, the news was almost entirely Yao Ming's news.

One day becomes one without the same thing.

One will be the Timberwolves, one will be the Clippers, one will be the Trail Blazers, one will be the Warriors......

Of course, he and his Seattle also often lay down the gun.

On June 30, 2010, one minute before July 1, Yao Ming posted his attribution on Twitter and Weibo.

A decision letter called "It's a Difficult Decision."

"This is the most difficult season of my career, whether it is the performance of the individual or the team, this season life in the Houston Rockets has become extremely difficult, I know that now I have reached a crossroads, this is a choice to move forward and backward, this is also a choice of feelings and reluctance, and this choice, I am particularly struggling."

'I know that a lot of people are waiting for my decision now, and I'm waiting for a decision that I will never regret, but I know that it can't be, no decision is perfect, just like no player, no team is perfect, I tried to make a perfect decision that I didn't regret and I found out that it couldn't be.

"I've struggled, I've hesitated, I've hesitated, but I know that no matter what, I need to make this determination, I want to be the NBA champion, I want to be the most important player in the championship, I want to get everything in the NBA, everything in basketball, and that's what has always guided me, and now I need to make a bold change for this direction, leaving the place I was familiar with and where I was once comfortable, and going to a new place where I can give me new hope, There's also a new excitement and passion there, and thank you for having me, Golden State Warriors, and I'm here. ”

"I am an NBA player from China, as a Chinese, I know the meaning of loyalty better than many people, thank Houston for helping me when I first entered the NBA, changing me, I thank every Houston person in my life who appeared in my life, you are the greatest group of people, for you, it is difficult for me to describe my feelings for you in words, this memory, this experience transcends all, and will make me remember forever, and it is precisely because of such a special relationship between us, This time the separation will make people feel so reluctant. ”

"Maybe you will be disappointed with my departure, and even I myself will be sad about leaving you at times, and not being able to pursue my dreams with you may be the biggest regret of my life, but I believe that your greatness will always find another player who can carry your dreams."

"Even now that I've left you, I'm going to cheer you on, and I'll always stand in this place where I've been fighting for eight years, goodbye, Houston, goodbye, Rocket."

After Mr. Yao's decision was sent out in the form of a handwritten image, Mr. Yao's Weibo and Twitter posts exploded.

Fans in China were puzzled.

"Even if you don't go to the Sonics, why don't you go to the Timberwolves?!"

"Even if you go to the Clippers, it's better than going to the Warriors!"

On Twitter in the United States, Yao Ming's decision was issued, and Ye Si liked it for the first time.

But apart from Yes and many NBA players and neutral coconut fans, Yao Ming's Twitter has become a place for Rockets fans to spray F like crazy.

"Was it a difficult decision? This decision is indeed very difficult, and from now on there will be no Yao in Houston but ROY, a traitor to shit! ”

"Shameful traitor, learn Roy!"

Looking at Yao Ming's Twitter on the situation of the group of Rocket fans dancing wildly, a smile appeared on James's face.

To the Warriors? It was a really tough decision, and it couldn't have been harder.

"Hehe, the loser's struggle."
