Coming out of the coach's office, Tang Tian knew that Gasol Jr.'s trade was a foregone conclusion.

Dare to make such a big move, Morey must have managed to convince Alexander.

The next day, the alliance officially announced the transaction.

The Rockets sent backup center Marc Gasol and the 2009 second-round pick from the Grizzlies in a trade from the Bucks, and center Adonal Foyer.

The deal caused a stir in the league, and the management of each team was also talking about it.

Some people think that the Grizzlies have a brain pump, and use a high-probability champion to sign in exchange for a bench interior who averages 10 points and 5 boards per game? You must know that if you choose Griffin, you will directly have the cornerstone of building a team!

Some people also think that the Grizzlies are "aiding and abusing", and now the strength of the Rockets is so terrifying, if they are given another champion signing, won't other teams be able to turn over for ten years?

Of course, the most I can't understand the Rockets, is this making it difficult for me to win three consecutive championships? Or is your heart too big, ready to choose the champion while winning the championship?

However, most people are optimistic about this trade at the moment, because no matter what the future holds, at least for now, the Rockets are much less powerful than they used to be.

On the day the deal was made, Gasol Jr. went to the Rockets locker room to pack his things.

The Rockets players are saying their final goodbyes to him.

This trade came very suddenly, and Gasol Jr. also played for the Rockets for a season and a half, and everyone was still a little reluctant to be emotional.

When Tang Tian came to the locker room, little Gasol was just about to come out of it.

"Coach, I was about to go to you." Gasol Jr. said with a smile.

It was Tang Tian who brought him from Europe to Team Rocket, and he trained him step by step, and it is not too much to say that he was his mentor.

Tang Tian nodded, walked out of the locker room with little Gasol, and chatted with him in the aisle.

"The Grizzlies are very average inside, and if you go, you'll get more opportunities than here, and the Grizzlies are willing to trade you for the past at such a big cost, and they also use you as the core of the rebuild, so you don't have to worry about your future, and don't be discouraged by going from a championship team to a fish belly team." Tang Tian opened his mouth to comfort.

"Thanks, coach, if I can, I think I've been playing under you, and it's okay to be a substitute." Gasol Jr. said in a sincere tone.

Everyone has their own personality, and little Gasol is more affectionate.

Tang Tian felt even more uncomfortable when he heard this, no matter how good he was, he was just a head coach, and he couldn't control the fate of his players.

The two of them then chatted for a few more minutes, and in the end, Tang Tian reached out and patted little Gasol on the shoulder: "Okay, let's go to the airport early, don't let me down next time." ”

"Coach, I will make them regret it." Gasol Jr. gritted his teeth and said.

Tang Tian paused, it seemed that little Gasol wanted to make trouble.

He didn't say anything, said a few words, sent him away, and then went back to the office.

Gasol Jr. was traded away from the team, and the center Fayer that the Rockets got was purely an addition, embarrassing, and now even if he doesn't want to, he can only let Jordan Jr. take it in advance.

In the morning, he chatted with Mutombo for a while, and judging from the results of the exchange, although Jordan Jr. was not fully prepared, he should be fine for ten minutes.

On February 9, U.S. time, there are only six days left before the start of the All-Star break, and the Rockets still have three games to play.

That night, they flew to the Denver Plateau to take on the Nuggets.

The last time the two teams met was at the beginning of the season, when the Rockets played at home and scored 132 points to beat their opponents.

Now that Gasol Jr. is gone, the Rockets' bench firepower has dropped significantly, and the team's morale is average, and it is really difficult to deal with a Nuggets team that runs on the plateau.

After the start of the game, the two teams started a battle against each other, and the home team, which was good at plateau operations, took a lot of advantage.

By the end of the first quarter, the Nuggets had a 32-27 lead over the Rockets.

Both sides began to send substitutes one after another.

On the Rockets' side, Jordan Jr. got his first chance to play, and the remaining three points were Scola, Petrus and Sun Yue.

The Nuggets were also redeployed, leaving Nene and Anthony in the starting lineup, and replacing them with J.R. Smith, Anthony Carter and Kreza.

"Don't jump around, be careful to control fouls." Before going on the court, Tang Tian still didn't feel at ease and pulled Little Jordan to advise.

Little Jordan nodded again and again, but his eyes kept looking at the field, and he didn't know if he listened or not.

"Toot!"

The short whistle blew on the sidelines, and the substitutes came up to play the last two minutes.

Before the substitution, it was the Rockets' offense, and Sun Yue held the ball and pushed forward.

Although Gasol Jr. left, the tactics of the Rockets' bench lineup remained unchanged, and Scola responded in the high post.

He also has this ability.

Petrus sped away from the defending JR Smith and made a quick cut to the basket.

Scola's shot followed, and Petrus caught the ball for a layup.

Nene stepped back quickly and took up his position in advance, with Petrus hesitating between a pass and a shot, and finally barely threw a shot.

"Bang!"

The ball hits the hoop and leaps high on the edge.

Nene jumped with Petrus and was about to take the rebound.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped up in front of him like a spring.

Before he could actually jump, the ball had already been caught by the black shadow.

Little Jordan!

Nene didn't expect the rookie on the opposite side to bounce so violently, and he was ready to prevent his dunk when he got stuck under the basket.

However, Jordan Jr. didn't want to attack at all, and after getting the rebound, he threw the ball into the hands of Maddie on the outside as soon as possible.

Maddie received the ball and broke through, shook Anthony and Creza's defense in succession and rushed to the basket.

Nene rushed out to help defend, and Maddie directly chose to pull out the emergency stop.

"Bang!"

The ball was a little shorter and bounced off the front of the basket.

Nene turned around and went back to collect the rebound.

But before he could jump, it was Little Jordan again, and he jumped up from the ground.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, Little Jordan directly dunked the ball into the basket with both hands!

The fans at the scene were stunned, this bullet speed is too fast!

There was a burst of excited cheers from the Rockets' bench, which was too morale-boosting!

The Nuggets' offense, Carter dribbled to the frontcourt, distributed the ball to Anthony, Anthony and beckoned Nene to come out to block and dismantle, attract the bag and then distribute the ball to Nene, Nene took the ball and took three steps to dunk.

But at this moment, a dark shadow suddenly arrived in front of him.

It's going to pack Anthony's little Jordan!

This guy's retreat is so fast!

But he's just a rookie.

Nene didn't stop, and he directly chose to dunk Jordan Jr. with a tough game.

He's going to get revenge for the basketball just now!

Nene jumped up with the ball in one hand, and Jordan Jr. also flew up as he retreated.

Because it is holding the ball in one hand, the ball is lifted very high, and it is already more than half a hand in the basket.

But little Jordan jumped higher!

That is the truest portrayal of pulling onions on dry land.

Nene tried to lift the ball over Jordan's hand, but he couldn't.

"Smack!"

"Bang!"

Nene rushed up to have an advantage against him, and dunked Jordan Jr. with one hand to the basket.

But the ball in his hand has been flown out by little Jordan!

The scene was in an uproar.

This bounce height, coupled with the previous bounce speed, is simply a mini version of Howard!

Nuggets coach Carl was also stunned, this finally took a little Gasol, and another pervert came out?
