Almighty Cultivation Supreme

"Welcome to Houston."

As soon as Iguodala flew here, Yao Ming Totoro Battier drove together to greet each other, and this kind of highest-level treatment suddenly flattered the first brother.

No player likes to be traded, even if he is destined to share with the parent team, the player wants to be traded for his own will, and the vast majority of transactions like this that he does not know about are to throw himself into a very pitted team, which is purely a sacrifice made by the player for the benefit of the team.

But Iguodala was lucky, the Rocket's configuration suited his appetite, and he was a little worried about whether his new teammates would squeeze him out before he got off the flight, but now it seems that this is also unfounded.

On the other hand, the arrival of Calderon, Black Parker and Adams of the Raptors is not so important, but the Rockets are not unattended, but they just sent lower-grade players like David Lee, Randolph and Gasol Jr. to pick up the dust for them.

On January 13, the Rockets, who had rested for four days, set off again to travel to the East Coast of the United States to challenge the New York Knicks in Rose Garden.

I have to say that the Rockets' schedule in January is really enviable, a total of 8 games were played before the 13th, but only 1 of these 8 games is against a strong team that can ensure that it enters the playoffs, and the others are the fish belly in the fish belly, if it weren't for the Totoro ban and Artest's troubles, the Rockets are estimated to have been fighting for a wave of 8 consecutive wins to compete for the first place in the West, instead of falling back to seventh in the West after another three-game losing streak, and fighting for the precious seat in the Western playoffs again.

According to New York media reports before the game, Maddie, who is familiar to Rocket fans, will choose to make a comeback in this game, CCTV, and ESPN, the three major TV stations in China and the United States also decided to broadcast this focus battle at the same time, although there should not be much suspense about the outcome of the game, but the gimmick in the game is still very sufficient.

How can Maddie respond to the old master? What explosive performance will Totoro play? What will Randolph and David Lee give when they revisit their hometown? Usually when two teams have recently made a large-scale trade, the game between the two teams must be exciting, and everyone wants to prove to the old team and the fans that trading them was a mistake, and no one will stay in this kind of game.

Then an interesting scene appeared, before the game, when the Knicks' star Maddy entered the court to warm up, the cheers in the arena were sparse, but when Totoro walked into the Madison Garden arena for the first time except for the draft, those Knicks fans erupted in deafening cheers.

"Come back! New York needs you! ”

"Dragron, I love you, baby, this is where you make a name for yourself!"

"I've joined the Red Dragon Cult, I'm your faithful follower, come back, I want to see you destroy in the Maddie Garden Arena!"

A lot of banners that fans had prepared appeared out of thin air, except for the red shading used by Rocket fans, there was almost no difference, and Totoro was surprised and thought he had arrived at the Toyota Center at first glance.

"Yo, I didn't expect you to have a lot of fans, and now you're a big celebrity in the United States."

Maddie said in a slightly sour tone, and anyone could hear the unhappiness in his tone.

This can't be said that he is narrow-minded, this is the same as separating women from men, no matter which woman doesn't want that man's girlfriend to find again will be better than herself, and the same is true for men, no man will want the other party's new concubine to be better than himself.

"Hehe, Totoro still has a long way to go, and his status in the rivers and lakes is still very shallow."

Da Yao smiled and played a round in the middle, he knew Totoro's temper very well, for fear that this little guy would not be able to control his mouth again, and if he said a mocking word back, the relationship between these two people would be over again.

Totoro is now the public enemy of American players, this little giant doesn't know yet, but now Totoro has definitely become the most hated person among NBA star players, there is no doubt about it.

James openly said that he hates Totoro, Durant hates Totoro, Rose hates Totoro, Volute is unfriendly to Totoro, Artest hates Totoro even more, and other players who have little intersection with Totoro will also hate him because of the various aura that hangs over Totoro.

So now Totoro has erected countless enemies, although Totoro himself doesn't know, or he doesn't care too much if he knows, what's wrong with the number of enemies? The more people who are red-eyed, the better he mixes, and those players who are not hated are the real incompetence.

At the beginning of the game, Yao Ming once again won the offensive right for the rocket.

According to the arrival, the Knicks originally wanted to send Maddie, who is close to Totoro in height and weight, to defend the opponent.

But Tracey's sister heard the coach's arrangement before the game and resolutely disagreed, Maddie may be a little lazy and a little arrogant, but he is definitely not a fool, he usually watched the Rockets game, and also watched the video of Totoro, Maddie, who was originally super physical fitness, knew that Totoro was a type of player with him, if he was a young man who was the pride of the scoring guard, then now Totoro is the chosen one on the small forward.

A person with such physical talent will already have a headache when you play straight with you, especially when you encounter a chinchilla that uses your brain, Maddie said that unless he shows off his brain or he can be 10 years younger, he will never go to prevent chinchillas in person.

So the unfortunate task fell to Wilson. Chandler and this year's rookie Gallinari.

In the last game, Totoro fulfilled Da Yao, so that the little giant on the Thunder team to brush out a 36 points, this time against the New York Knicks, he Totoro is still not in a hurry to attack, he calmly handed over all the ball to the new point guard Calderon, since honestly to run, and with the defender of his own players to open up space, the court stage completely handed over to the two New York veterans and new teammates.

My Neighbor Totoro will be a man, David Lee and they are also happy to accept this love, after the two of them left, the already stretched New York interior line is even more useless at the moment, the first two inside lines are Jarred Jeffries and Al. Harrington, with a near-zero defensive ability on the inside and Calderon who likes to pass the ball, is the perfect time for them to make a difference.

On the defensive end, the Rockets also made a ruthless move, they dropped Battier from the bench to the starting lineup to specifically target Maddie, Iguodala was promoted to small forward to accompany the half-volley of Wilson Chandler, Totoro was pressed on the power forward to defend Al Harrington, Randolph was promoted to the center position, Da Yao played for 3 minutes and went off the court to drink tea and watch the play with Uncle Mu.

The Rockets have three players who can play at the same time, which is naturally a devastating blow to the New Yorkers, they trade and trade and trade only these three muskets are left, and now they are all targeted by Adelman, and they still play snakeskin when they can't score?

I have to say that the Rockets are the team with the most moves this year, so far this season, the Rockets have changed more than half of the teams in the league combined, and it is actually a very dangerous thing for the team to change too many roster changes in the season, because this is not conducive to the team's run-in, and it will also make the players lack a sense of belonging, worrying every day whether they will become one of the victims of the team, and they can't put their minds on the game in such a mentality.

But the Rockets' reinforcement through trade is also obvious, in the first 10 games of the season, everyone thought that trading Maddy was a sign of the decline of the Rockets, and at that time everyone regarded the Rockets as a favorable contender for the league's plus or minus team leader, but who is embarrassed to mention this stubble now?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that all these changes are based on Totoro's growth.

At the beginning, Alexander obviously lost hope in the Yao Mai combination, his intention to trade Maddie for Totoro was to make money, and the intention of trading players for a large number of draft picks was to save money, how much money can a rookie contract have? The slamming boss has put the Rockets' hopes for the future.

But as Totoro grew up unscientifically, the Rockets have clearly changed their strategic approach this season.

Traders with top-ranked draft picks in exchange for a hitter, the Rockets hierarchy sees the hope of competing for a championship this season, and the potential that Totoro has redeemed in advance has decided to make them desperate! This game is the best proof of this.

Iguodala and Calderon are officially playing for the Rockets for the first time, and it stands to reason that no matter how awesome the All-Star is, the first game will always be abnormal due to various conditions, either because of the lack of adaptation or some messy other reasons, they will not be able to integrate into the team quickly.

No matter how well you cooperate in the training game, there will be mistakes in the regular season, which is the same as how well you play in the regular season and will drop the chain in the playoffs.

However, a few newcomers to the Rockets do not have this common problem, although they have not fully understood the tactical book of the Rockets, but with Totoro pulling a lot of defensive attention from the opponent for them, they can get good statistics even by relying on simple passing cooperation.

Of course, this is also a matter of pride in the Knicks' defensive sparseness, and this kind of weak team scoring game is actually the most suitable for strong teams that have just finished trading, and a hearty victory can help them grow quickly.

Specifically, after Totoro easily turned back to Wilson Chandler, the other Knicks players immediately focused their attention on him, Calderon is a point guard with excellent ball distribution, unlike Totoro who only passes point guards and brushes assists, Calderon will pass the ball according to the form of the court, such as who feels good and feed whom, and the basketball will be hung in that area if the defense is weak, many times this kind of passing may not bring him assists, but it can make the Rockets' offense more unimpeded, In many cases, this kind of passing may not be visually exciting, but it can make the team's positional battle flow more smoothly, and many of these things are not visible to pseudo-fans.

At the end of the half, the Rockets unexpectedly led the New York Knicks with a score of 59:39, and Totoro only had 3 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist in the two quarters.

On the other hand, the Knicks, Maddy did nothing under the care of Battier, only 4 of 14 shots, barely cutting 13 points is not too embarrassing, and the nerve knife Crawford scored 10 points by swinging, and the Knicks never had a third scoring point.

At halftime, the Rockets players entered the locker room with a smile and a smile, looking relaxed and happy as if they were playing a training game, while the Knicks' teammates were all sad and bitter, and people who didn't know thought they were collectively in debt of millions of dollars.

This is especially Maddie's most profound feeling, although he has a lazy personality, but his heart has always been very high, maybe this is a common problem of young famous players, they don't think that they are no longer as brave because of age or injury, even if 99 out of 100 people tell them that they are old and no longer have an All-Star level, they will still stubbornly think that they are a destiny.

Maddie, who feels that he is still 35 seconds and 13 minutes, is very envious and jealous when he looks at the Rockets lineup, he doesn't think he will be inferior to Totoro, a hairy boy, if he is leading the Rockets now instead of the rookie, he can also lead this Rockets team to compete for the championship!

But reality is reality, no matter how unwilling Maddie is, he can't change the status quo, he can only stay in the New York Knicks, a nursing home team, and get paid to make a living, even if he wants to jump ship to a strong team that can compete for championships, it will be in 2010.........

In the second half, Soft Mai didn't know what to stimulate, and he held back a big move and released all the character he had accumulated for half a year, how to shoot three-point shots, and Battier could also score blindfolded, and he shot 7 of 10 in the entire third quarter, and scored 25 points in a single quarter to help the Knicks overtake the score.

At this time, the fans of the Rockets panicked, they were afraid that their team would habitually collapse in the last quarter, after all, the tragedy of three consecutive defeats was not far away, but at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Totoro told the Rockets fans in front of the TV with a dunk separated by two people that this Rockets is already a completely different team now with him.

They are a team that is aiming for a championship!
