Chapter 134: Tongue War
"My neighbor totoro, what's wrong with you, are you sick? Why does your face look so bad? ”
The Rockets took a charter flight to Salt Lake City today to challenge their old rivals, the bitter Utah Jazz who eliminated themselves from the playoffs twice, but the current Rockets are no longer what they used to be, except for Yao Ming, a few people have not changed, this year's Rockets have been a completely different team compared to the past.
However, the Rockets want to take revenge on the other side's home court, and Totoro, a big general in the town, must first stay healthy, but President Battier looked at the other party with a worried face, and today from the moment Totoro got on the plane, he felt that the other party was in a wrong state, and his face was about to catch up with him, a white man, could it be a fever?
"I'm fine, um, just give me a little rest, um, yes, I'll be fine when I get off the plane."
My Neighbor Totoro said with a wry smile, how could he catch a cold with such a bug in physical fitness? But yesterday's Shura field was really terrifying, the five flavors of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty dishes were placed in front of you, and there were 5 girls who were leading the way and fed the dishes to your mouth, and each dish had to be eaten, and no one knew what it felt like if they didn't experience it personally.
Anyway, Totoro felt that his stomach had exploded after eating a meal, and he had been helped into it by two or three girls after the meal, and if he hadn't woken up a little better this morning, he would have worried about whether he had food poisoning.........
As soon as they got off the plane, hundreds of fanatical Utah fans waited at the airport, and as soon as they arrived at the airport, they immediately greeted the Rockets players with a special welcome, boos and signs with slogans.
What Rockets fans hate most is the constant small moves of the Utah Jazz, and how can Salt Lake City fans not hate the Houstoners?
Due to the deliberate rendering of the league, the Utah Shuangsha and Yao Mai combination has long been a famous pair of enemies, and the fans in the two places naturally dislike each other, the game between the Rockets and the Utah Jazz is very intense every time, elbows and black feet are trivial for both sides, and there will always be a few people who see blood between these two teams in each game, although most of the injuries are Rockets, Landry's front teeth, Maddie's wrists, Yao Ming's calves, these are all evidence of Utah Jazz's crimes.
Of course, according to the Jazz themselves, they call it tough, but it is definitely not dirty.
After the plane in the morning, the whole team at noon had a nutritious meal that was specially configured by the team to explode to the point of explosion, and then in the afternoon they had some recovery training, and then all they had to do was wait for the game to come.
The NBA generally does not eat dinner when there is a game, because eating too much is not only not conducive to intense exercise, but also makes players lazy, generally they will only eat snacks and desserts a few hours before the game to fill their hunger and replenish their calories, and will not eat a meal.
It's just that this also varies from person to person, if you want big guys like Yao Ming and O'Neill, if they don't eat, they won't have the strength to compete at all........
"Mr. Totoro, now you are the player with the highest demand for [Rookie of the Year] right now, and since you entered the NBA, your highlights have been obvious to all."
"Thank you for the compliment, but personally, I think there's a lot more I need to work on, and Derrick Rose and Westbrook in the East are doing well and I don't think I have anything better than them right now."
At the pre-game press conference, the media in Salt Lake City actually praised Totoro for the first time, but the witty Totoro felt that there must be a trap in their words, so he modestly avoided the question.
"Hehe, you're so modest, so what do you think of the Jazz team you played against today? I mean, what kind of team do you think the Jazz are? ”
My Neighbor Totoro has now replaced Artest to attend the team's pre-game press conference, which is an obvious status change in the team, Adelman was worried at first that Totoro, who had not experienced much experience in press conferences, would give him some kind of moth, but now it seems that his new disciple is still quite smart, at least he understands the truth of modesty.
The reporter smiled awkwardly, he was going to play after the other party's boasts, but Totoro was cunning and had a fight with a fox, so he had no choice but to use Plan B.
"The Jazz are a very fighting team, they are tenacious and tough, and I don't think there is any team in the league that can break them mentally, even if you can lead them by 20 points or 30 points, you will never see a look of giving up in their eyes."
My Neighbor Totoro smiled slightly, the other party's question is obviously tendentious, it is a well-known thing that the Rockets and Jazz hate each other, he wants to praise the Jazz team will definitely be hated by the fans of the Rockets, he wants to belittle the Jazz team and it is a bit inconsistent with his current identity, or just say something innocuous or not, but if he does this, the reporters in the audience will definitely not let him go, and he will definitely continue to ask those more painful questions.
So Totoro used a very clever trick, literally, Totoro seems to be praising the Jazz team's tenacious style, but what the hell is the 30-point lead in the back? Isn't this a disguised call for jazz stupidity?
“.........”
But the reporters in the audience are not good at making any more articles on this issue, although these guys who are engaged in writing know what Totoro really wants to express, but they don't have the right words and opinions to embarrass each other, eat the reporter's bowl of rice The brain and expression must be very clear, otherwise they will blindly ask questions, and Totoro promises to write a complaint letter the next day to let the brainless reporter pack up his baggage and get out.
"Mr. Totoro, what kind of players do you think Carlos Boozer and Deron Williams are?"
There are also some reporters who don't give up and desperately want to induce Totoro to make mistakes.
"I don't think you should ask me this question, I've never played against them, I haven't watched their games, you should ask Yao Ming or other older generation Rockets players this question, and their answers are more authoritative than mine."
My Neighbor Totoro pushed the problem out of the way when he talked and laughed, and he didn't think he would lose to any active NBA player in terms of Tai Chi kung fu, after all, he studied the lawyer major of law and politics when he was a college student in his previous life, and he often participated in debate tournaments, couldn't he still get a few NBA reporters?
