Chapter 283: Comforting Teammates
With the successive defeats of G3 and G4, the rocket's heart was finally dispersed, and the G5 game in the face of the key battle actually played abnormally, whether it was Yao Ming or Battier, they all entered a state of vacancy and mistakes.
In such a state, the Rockets naturally buried the G5 game, so that the Rockets will enter the most dangerous game of the playoffs! If G6 loses again, the Rockets will say goodbye to the playoffs and go home fishing.
The G6 game opened on time at the Toyota Center, and the players of the Rockets may have realized the urgency of the situation, so they all fought hard to fight the Mavericks.
After the Rockets used all their skills, the Rockets finally won the game at home, and the credit for this was inseparable from Harden, because the score between the Mavericks and the Rockets was still tied in the last ten seconds of the game.
In the end, he relied on Harden's single step back to shoot the Mavericks, and the summer was also excited when he saw this, because the Mavericks' current strength is completely a championship team, and the Rockets only have potential.
And now the potential team has beaten the championship team, which can't help but give the summer hope again, the hope of winning the championship! Even summer has begun to fantasize, fantasizing about the joy of lying down and winning the championship.
However, after the start of the G7 game, Summer's heart was really hanging again, because the Rocket's performance was so abnormal! Whether it is Yao Ming's low-post singles or Harden's singles, they can't escape the fate of hitting iron in the end.
Although the role players stepped up in time in this game, they only maintained the scorching score for half the game, and in the second half, the Rockets directly began to collapse.
Until the final whistle, the Rockets did not catch up with the score....
"Did you lose?" Summer's whole face began to feel melancholy when she watched the TV, and she thought she could win the game, but she didn't expect to lose in the end, but Summer's melancholy expression only lasted for a while before disappearing.
Instead, there was a gentle face, after all, his teammates had done their best, didn't they? If you lose, you lose, and if you still have a chance next year, it's your teammates who should be comforted more now.
Thinking of this summer, he also picked up the mobile phone on the side and called Adelman, but the phone rang for a long time but no one answered, and Summer's brows couldn't help frowning.
What's going on? Why didn't anyone pick it up? It's really exciting! Could it be that they haven't been back in the locker room yet? No, no, I'd better keep calling.
Summer is still persistently on the phone, and Adelman's phone in the Rocket locker room on the other end is also ringing....
"Are you sure you don't answer the phone? Maybe Xia will be in a hurry. Adelman said to his team members on the phone.
There was silence in the "......." locker room, and no one spoke, because they were afraid, afraid of the disappointment of summer! You know, they swore to Summer that they would let him lie down and win the championship, but now that they have lost and gone home, how dare they answer the phone.
"Ah, you guys...."Adelman gave them a disappointed look, then turned and walked out of the locker room to pick up the phone.
"Hey, Coach! Are you alright? Why didn't you answer the phone just now! Summer's anxious voice rang out.
"Well... What shall I say about this? Adelman glanced at the locker room and sighed.
"Well, they don't know how to face you."
"Face me? Am I horrible? Coach, you turn on the phone to give them speakerphone, isn't it just that they lost the game, and it's not that they won't be able to play next year, so they're like this! Summer said a little angrily.
Although Summer's tone is not very good, you can hear the concern in his words, after all, they are all his teammates, can he not care? And it's just one game, did you lose more in the original game? It really made Summer a little angry.
"Okay, I'll bring the phone in and give it to them, and you can tell them." Adelman said helplessly.
After all, that's what a locker room leader should say! But what about Yao Ming? This will be autistic with them, which is also very unhappy for Adelman, you must know that the Rockets are his team now! He didn't do his duties as a leader and was shut up and silent with them, and Adelman was angry no matter what he thought.
"Ahem, can you hear me clearly?" After the Adelman Bar hands-free was turned on, Summer said to them.
"...."It's still silent, which makes the summer very embarrassing, so why don't you say a word!
Then it was Adelman who solved the embarrassment of the summer, and I saw him take the phone to the front and talk softly.
"Xia, if you don't just say it, I turned on the hands-free and they can hear it."
"Can you hear me? That's good. Summer said softly.
"Ahem, old man, you guys, do you want to tell me that you were beaten down in one game, right? And what is the matter with the coach saying that you dare not face me? Am I a tiger and eat people? Or do you think I'm scared because of my horrible looks? ”
"No, brother! It's just that we don't dare to face you... Said okay to bring you back...."Harden was the first to speak, but Harden's words were interrupted by Summer before he could finish speaking.
"Hey, hey, Harden, you're going to be funny! If you don't dare to face me if you lose a game, are you still ready to see me again in the future? “
Listening to Summer's words, Harden glared at Adelman, and said Okay, why didn't he answer the phone, but the coach still answered the phone! What should he do now?
There was no way to continue to explain, Harden explained into the phone with a bitter face, "No, brother, it's because..."
"Because I lost the game, right? Isn't it just a game? Isn't it just a series? You're not going to play next year, are you? Why do you want so much when you lose? We can review, we can blame ourselves, but we don't know if we can't be autistic! You also know that I was autistic at the beginning, and the so-called autism is more and there is experience, so we just strive to be a better version of ourselves! Like you, will we still be a strong team next year? Know that we have three All-Stars! Three stars! And the salary cap is not sufficient, we have a chance next year! So I need you to cheer up, I need you to know! That's all I have to say, there's nothing to be bad about, come back and get ready, let's go to China together, so don't think so much, hang up! Summer said everything in her heart, regardless of what her teammates thought.
After all, their words are here, but whether they can get out of this shadow can only depend on themselves, as Xia said, he is a little too autistic the times, so he also has experience, this kind of shadow is like a rookie wall, you can't rely on others, you can only rely on yourself!
