May 25, 2008, Training Hall at Eastern Washington University.

Rockets head coach Adelman looked at the 'Celebrating the Houston Rockets' 2008 World Championship hanging around Eastern Washington University! The slogan frowned slightly.

After the second game of the Rockets and the Hypersonics, the whole world is looking forward to him and his rockets.

Around him and his rockets, there has been a lot of such rhetoric lately.

The 2008 NBA championship, this is certainly what he wants most.

In 1968, the first person was drafted by the San Diego Rockets in the seventh round and joined the NBA, and this year, it is exactly the 40th year!

In his forty years in the NBA, he has not been able to win an NBA championship either as a player or as a head coach.

As one of the oldest people in the NBA, he himself does not deny that this has become one of his heart problems.

He is hungry for a championship!

He has come very close to winning championships at one time too!

When he was at the Kings, he always felt that he should have been a champion.

But in the end, someone stole his championship.

The king's experience taught him many, many things.

Let him know that there are always many, many surprises in this world.

Even if your team is stronger than your opponent and performs better than your opponent, you still can't stand the opponent's 12 points and 8 points in overtime are free throws, and the opponent doesn't have a single foul, and your side doesn't have a single free throw but has 6 fouls.

Even if you're about to touch the championship trophy, you can't stand the opponent's 27 free throws in the fourth quarter and 16 fouls in the fourth quarter.

In this world, there are just too many accidents.

There are so many that people feel that they can't be guarded against.

He didn't like such an accident.

He also hated such accidents.

If he could, he would want to strangle all these accidents in the cradle.

And replacing Van Gundy Jr. to the Rockets this season is an opportunity that can kill all the surprises.

He got a team that he dreamed of.

In his playing career, in his managerial career, he has never seen a team so strong.

Finally, he could kill all those damn accidents in the cradle.

Finally, he can use his upright strength to strangle all the intrigues in the cradle.

Finally, even the most disgusting accident, the most disgusting human factor, could not have taken his championship away from his hands!

Adelman reluctantly suppressed some of the surging emotions in his heart.

Although I don't really like Eastern Washington University, these people who hate Washington University and hate Yes hang up such signs.

But I have to say that these slogans are indeed enough to shake people's hearts.

After all, this is a champion!

Whether it's him or the players under him, everyone is hungry for that trophy.

Craving!

Deep longing!

However, it will take a while to touch the distance and actually lift this trophy.

This time, he will be patient, with the most unparalleled patience in history!

According to his personality in the past, in the face of this year's regional finals because of the schedule of the Olympic Games, he will choose to fight quickly.

A quick decision not only gives yourself a chance, but also gives your opponent a chance, and at the same time, it also gives some unexpected opportunities.

This time, he won't make another mistake!

He doesn't like the schedule, but he enjoys it!

Never in his basketball career has he been so excited about the next game.

May 25, 2008, Evening, Key Arena, Seattle.

Amid the deafening cheers of the Seattle fans, the third game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Houston Rockets is also about to begin.

"I didn't expect that one day I would come back here in such a capacity......"

"What I didn't expect was that at this time, the Seattle fans would give you such huge applause and cheers."

"yes......"

Roy nodded with some emotion.

Forever Seattle Sons......

It's really a mixed cheer.

For this cheer of Seattle fans, Roy was moved.

But at the same time, he needs to be ready to knock out Seattle's favorite son of God in Seattle......

According to the previous way that the Rockets eliminated the Lakers and Thunder steadily, if the Rockets eliminated the SuperSonics in the sixth game, then it happened to be at the home of the SuperSonics.

Of course, the Rockets eliminated the Thunder and Lakers in six games, which does not mean that the Rockets eliminated the SuperSonics in six games.

The series with the Rockets was played in six games, and it was Kobe Bryant and the Lakers players, Paul and the Thunder players who fought for it with their own madness.

If the Leaf and the SuperSonics players don't have that strength to win it, then the Rockets don't mind eliminating the SuperSonics in five games.

If he could, Roy would certainly be hoping to eliminate the superSonics in five games.

At the very least, he doesn't have to have too much psychological burden to eliminate the superSonics and Yees in Houston.

Although these psychological burdens do not affect his pursuit of victory.

But......

After enjoying the cheers of the live supersonic fans, Roy quickly felt the mood change of the live supersonic fans.

Because then it's the supersonic player's turn to come in.

The son of Seattle, who truly belongs to Seattle forever, is also about to appear!

"Below is the Illinois champion, NBA three-point champion, Quentin Richardson of DePaul University!"

Well?!

Just as Roy was ready to listen to the live DJ cheering for the supersonic starters, the first supersonic player to appear directly made Roy dream.

Not Durant?!

Not to mention Roy, the other Rockets players next to him, as well as the media reporters on the sidelines and the Seattle SuperSonics fans in the stands were all stunned.

After a moment of stunnedness, there was an uproar.

"Durant had physical problems in the last game, and Durant didn't play in this game, so it can't be an injury, right?!"

"Hurt? No way?! ”

"If it wasn't for the injury, why didn't you play in such an important game? And the supersonic bench players who came out first did not have Durant! ”

"Will Durant's order of appearance change?"

Soon, people who were speculating about whether Durant's appearance order had been changed gave up on that speculation.

Because all the players of the SuperSonics still did not see Durant after Yes's finale.

"Durant lasted two games, and he couldn't hold on?!"

For a while, the atmosphere of the entire Key Arena has changed dramatically.

On the other side of this time, in the locker room of the Seattle SuperSonics, Durant was lying on the physiotherapy bed, staring at the picture from the key arena on the TV in front of him.

"KD, I hope you can rest for the next game."

Ignoring the change in the power of the team doctor's massage technique behind him, Durant's hands clenched into fists.

He wants to play!

He didn't want to waste any chance of victory!

But he knew that he didn't play any role in this game.

Thinking of this, Durant closed his eyes.

At the same time, in the Key Arena.

Because Durant didn't play, the whole arena was in an uproar.

No way, now Durant is not the Durant of the past.

The whole world knows that Durant is now the most important helper by Yes's side.

Although the suspense of this round of the series is gone, if Durant is really injured, yes I am afraid that the last dignity will be gone.

Paul and Kobe Bryant can hold on for six games, yes can't hold on to even six, right?

More importantly, even if Durant is injured, what kind of injury is it?

Will it affect my career?

Yes finally found a reliable second leader, in order to cultivate this second leader Yes wasted a year of his own and the entire team's time, if this really went wrong, Yes would definitely cry, right?

Even if yes doesn't cry, coconut flour will cry!

As the head coach of the supersonic at the center of the whirlpool, in the face of the uproar of the audience, the old Nelson did not have any emotional changes.

"Mr. Nelson, I hope KD can be rested in the next game."

This is a requirement of Yes.

Yes gave up the chance to win every game.

Yes chose to go all out to win a game!

Yes gave up the chance to 3-1 the rocket, and Yes finally chose to drag the rocket as long as possible!

Nelson Sr. didn't know why Yes was dragging out this series with the Rockets, but he knew he couldn't refuse Yes's request.

Do you want KD to take a rotational break?

I can't change anything about this game, and I don't know exactly what you're going to do, but I can give you some other gifts!

Thinking of this, a rare smile appeared on the old Nelson's face.

Feeling the smile on the face of the old Nelson next to him, as the assistant coach of the SuperSonics, Scott Brooks was a little surprised.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a smile on Mr. Nelson's face!

I haven't seen this series with the Rockets since it started!

"I don't like accidents!"

But in the end, an accident happened!

This made Adelman very uncomfortable.

Did Durant get hurt at all?

This one doesn't matter.

Whether Durant is there or not, the tactical impact on the Rockets is zero.

The point is, what he hates is the feeling of being unexpected.

Even if such an accident had no effect on the final result, he didn't like it.

This feeling was out of his control.

"Is this your conspiracy?"

Adelman looked to the side, and the smiling fat face was just right in his eyes.

Sure enough, it was a deliberate conspiracy!

Does it make me uncomfortable even if I know that my plot is futile?

Sure enough, it's your style!

Thinking of this, the turmoil in Adelman's heart finally calmed down, and the facial paralysis returned to his face again.

"After this game is without Durant, Yes will be very difficult to play, and the Rockets will be even more desperate to exchange the physical strength of five people on their team for the physical strength of Yes alone!"

With Durant, the Rockets still need to face the pressure of losing, even if they press Yes, they will not be too unscrupulous.

But without Durant, without the pressure of losing, the Rockets still have to catch Yes to attack every offense?!

Barkley is really uncomfortable right now.

He really didn't expect Durant to have a day that was so important to Yes.

It's just that......

Just when Barkley was worried that the Rockets would catch Yes in this game, the supersonic offense of the jump ball in this game made Barkley and the entire arena stunned!

"Long, Rondo is storming Roy?!"

"After Milicic successfully jumped the ball, Rondo didn't give the ball to Yes, but directly attacked it himself?!"

Seeing Rondo kill Roy, even Yes was stunned.

The smile on the face of the old Nelson on the side became even more prosperous.

"No, it's not my gift to you, it's our gift to you!"

"Although our gift does not mean anything to the outcome of this game, we hope it can really be useful to your plans!"

For the supersonic fans at the scene, the third game against the Rockets was undoubtedly an incredible game.

Rondo storms Roy!

Quentin Richardson storms Maddie!

Millsap storms Gerard Wallace!

Milicic storms Yao Ming!

It's not tentative, and when everyone attacks, they can't wait to die with their opponents.

I don't care about the result of this strong attack, I only care about how much consumption this strong attack has caused to the opponent.

"That's the sacrificial play in baseball!"

"Now Adelman and the Rockets are uncomfortable!"

"Old Nelson?!"

Phil Jackson has been keeping an eye on this series of Rockets and Hypersonics.

Looking at the crazy supersonic players in this game, he was really shocked that he was standing the whole time.

And Durant in the Rockets locker room, looking at the crazy teammates on TV, was holding his fists tighter.

"Unbelievable play!"

Kenny Smith is in awe!

It's not just admiration for the incredible arrangement of old Nelson.

I also admired the singles ability of the supersonic players.

Rondo, Quentin Richardson, Millsap, Milicic, not to mention their singles success rate, each of them has the ability to defend strongmen in singles against the Rockets!

If these supersonic players don't have enough singles ability and make mistakes in a single hit, it is impossible to consume Rocket players at all!

"The 3,000-kilometer trek, I thought it was the encirclement and suppression of Yes by a group of my own people, but I didn't expect it......"

"Coach Nelson is too good, the whole team doesn't want a single, it depends on whether the Rockets continue to encircle and suppress Yes!"

Kenny Smith was looking forward to Adelman's response, and in the end, Adelman's response was still strong, and it didn't surprise him at all!

"Adelman is still frantically encircled and suppressedYes!"

"This game is too much for the players on the field of both teams!"

When this game came to an end, all the viewers in front of the TV were shocked to see the final score of 76-68.

At the end of the game, Ye Si was also shocked.

Looking at the panting teammates, Ye Si's hands trembled slightly.

You guys......

On May 27, 2008, in the fourth game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Rockets, Durant, who was absent from one game, made a strong comeback, and scored 40+ again on 16-of-34 shooting in a single game, helping the SuperSonics defeat the Rockets 103-95 at home, and finally made the big score of the two teams 2-2!

"Yes, that's the victory you want!"

We stayed!

"Hopefully it's not our last win of the season!"

Looking at the excited supersonic players on the court, old Nelson nodded secretly in his heart.
