Lori ran to the cat bag, her turquoise eyes stared at Nana stunned, looking left and right, looking at her appearance, eager to get into the cat bag and play with Nana.

"So small! So cute! Lori clapped her palms and smiled innocently.

"Uncle, can I feed it?"

Soon, Lori raised her head and looked up at Chi Liang, who was like a giant to her, she bit her lower lip nervously, her eyes were full of pleading, for fear that Chi Liang would refuse.

"You can feed it at any time, but it's still small, so don't feed too much!"

Chi Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed a packet of cat food to Lori, watching Lori feed Nana carefully, Chi Liang was also a lot more relieved.

"Since Lori likes it, I can promise you that you can foster Nana with me at any time in the future!"

At this time, Mr. Smith finally spoke, and he was still a little entangled, but seeing that his daughter liked Nana very much, he finally agreed to this matter.

"Then trouble Mr. Smith!" After Chi Liang thanked Mr. Smith, and then didn't care whether Nana understood it or not, he said to it: "Nana, you stay here during this time, and I will pick you up in a few days!"

Nana glanced up at Chi Liang, and then continued to bury her head in eating, that heartless appearance, Chi Liang was speechless for a while.

After solving Nana's problem, Ji Liang went to the training gym to conduct routine training with his teammates and start preparing for the next game against the Rockets.

On March 9, the Nuggets came to Houston to challenge the Rockets again.

Last month, they played a game against the Rockets, which ended in a loss. This time, they want to make a comeback and claim a win in Houston.

Before the start of the game, due to the topicality of Ji Liang and the Rockets, coupled with the Big Three of the Rockets, it attracted a lot of media attention, and a large number of reporters were waiting in the media lounge, ready for routine interviews.

Nuggets starting lineup: McDyce, Fortson, Ji Liang, Billups and Alexander.

The Rockets start

Centre-forward: Olajuwon

Power forward: Ross Barkley

Small forward: Pippen

Quarterback: Dixon

Point Guard: Mobley.

In the jump ball, McDyce beat Olajuwon and slapped the basketball to Alexander.

The Rockets seemed to know the result, quickly returned to defense, and did not give the Nuggets a chance to break quickly.

If it was Olajuwon when he was young, he had a great advantage in jumping balls, but now he can't jump anymore, and the success rate of jumping balls is minimal.

After half-time with the ball, Alexander passed the ball to McDyce.

At this time, the Nuggets players pulled and lured the opposing players away, leaving McDyce with enough space to play alone.

McDyce began to fight back, and even though Olajuwon was old, his strength was still not weak, and there was no sign of retreating.

The next moment, McDyes's center of gravity sank, his shoulders shook, and he wanted to break through to the left with his left foot as the axis.

Olajuwon is an experienced man who is not slow and immediately blocked McDyce's breakthrough.

In an instant, McDies lifted his left foot, took advantage of the Sikma step, changed from the back basket to the face basket, and opened up the shooting space by the way, and shot the basketball.

Olajuwon didn't lose his position, he also jumped, although not high, but he also managed to interfere with McDyce, and finally ended in a tie.

Barkley had a keen nose for rebounding, pouted his big ass hard, pushed Fortson away, and grabbed the defensive rebound first.

The Rockets' offense, Mobley hoisted the ball to Olajuwon.

Despite his age, Olajuwon is still the Rockets' leading scorer, with a well-rounded skill set that not only dominates the basket, but also makes jumpers from outside the box, as well as penetration skills and speed with the ball as swift and fast as a forward player.

Of course, Olajuwon's best skill is the 'Dream Dance', and he has tried it again and again. This is mainly due to his excellent ball control skills like a point guard, not only the speed of dribbling under the crotch, but also the timing of getting rid of opponents just right.

In addition, Olajuwon's physical balance is also excellent, and he has never made a mistake due to an unstable center of gravity and was tackled by an opponent.

After receiving the basketball, Olajuwon first swayed from side to side, his movements were very deceptive, and at the same time he had a strong grasp of opportunities.

At the moment when McDyce's center of gravity changed, Olajuwon took the toe of his right foot as the axis, turned around suddenly, and easily shook off McDyes, scoring a layup.

After the switch between attack and defense, this time Alexander passed the ball to Ji Liang.

With the help of McDyce's blocking, Ji Liang temporarily got rid of Pippen and wanted to impact the penalty area.

At this time, Olajuwon stepped forward and attacked Chi Liang with Pippen on both sides.

After successfully attracting the defense, Ji Liang didn't dare to be careless, so he passed the ball to McDyce, who was in the empty position.

Boom~

McDyce was a little embarrassed, looking at his hands speechlessly, even if he was in an empty position, he didn't take the opportunity.

The Rockets' offense, this time Barkley pouted his ass and forced Fortson out of the way, and finally made a successful shot.

Boom~

This time, it was Billups who shot the basketball, and under Dixon's interference, it still ended in iron.

Boom~

Not long after, Ji Liang broke through the ball and passed the ball to Alexander, who was in the empty position, but this thing did not seize the opportunity and still did not escape the fate of striking iron.

At the start of the first quarter, the Nuggets were in trouble, missing all four shots, and they were shot by three.

12:6

By the time five minutes passed, the Nuggets had only six points, and in addition to the Rockets' tight defense, it was also related to their cold touch.

Among the five people present, Chi Liang's feel was quite normal, but it did not reach the level of heat, especially Pippen who defended him, which limited his play to a certain extent.

However, Pippen is not much better, and under Chi Liang's hard defense, he is not better, and his shooting percentage is lower than that of Chi Liang.

Later in the game, the Nuggets hit a low ebb against the Rockets, who are known for their defense, and played their worst game of the season.

D'Antoni saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but he couldn't help it, because except for Chi Liang, whether it was the main force or the substitute, their hands were extremely cold, and the hit rate was outrageously low.

Even if Chi Liang went all out, he entered the dynamic field of vision in the fourth quarter, faintly bursting Pippen, but the difference between the two sides was too large, and the Rockets were extremely calm, and his performance could not reverse the situation.

84:75

At the end of the game, the Nuggets ended up losing the game. It seems that the score difference is not big, but it has been steadily suppressed by the Rockets from beginning to end, and has never completed the overtake.
