Chapter Eighty-Six: The Characteristics of a Strong Team
The bench cried silently, TM's blame me?
Time and injuries are the NBA's biggest enemies, it seems that no player can escape these disasters, NBA basketball is by far the highest level of basketball in the world, the players here jump high, the severity of the street is naturally much greater, many young players are talented but do not pay attention to protect themselves, plus a very small number of dirty players who stare at other players' jobs, many players who can dominate the world have been ruined by injuries.
The NBA is also the most lucrative basketball arena in the world, and the lowest-level role players here also fluctuate in the annual salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the top players with money are more than $10 million a year.
This is not the time when the exchange rate between the US dollar and the soft sister currency fell by 6 yuan in 2017, now one dollar can be used as 8 ocean flowers, and global prices have generally not risen, tens of millions of dollars are enough for you to live a well-off life for a lifetime.
Ordinary people can't use tens of millions of dollars at all, so these players come to make themselves extraordinary, houses, luxury cars, yachts, airplanes, nightclubs, gambling, prostitution, drugs, the United States is an open society, as long as you have money, what can't you buy?
Then, these booze women hollowed out the bodies of NBA players, shortening their peak by at least half.
Specifically, we can look at the famous superstars in the league.
Kobe Bryant, Duncan, James, Nash, Nowitzki, Yao Ming are all players who know how to be self-disciplined, but only Yao Ming exists among them, of course, if you exclude the national team has never had a rest, Yao Ming should not become the kind of player who is very prone to injury.
On the other hand, Davis, Odom, Arenas, Margety, Francis, Anthony, Iverson, and a bearded Harden, the king of nightclubs in college, have a large number of them who have not won any decent honors, and those who have gone to many have basically ended up in disrepute.
It's okay to go to a nightclub once in a while, people should enjoy the life of a local tyrant when they have money, like what team has won some important battles, it doesn't hurt to go to a nightclub to drink two glasses, and even find two young ladies to play It's okay, but everything is about doing what you can, if you pass this degree, it will be a tragedy........
Xiao Si was also the little prince of Phoenix's nightclub when he was young, and then in 2005, he was diagnosed with knee cartilage tissue contusion by the hospital, and a pair of little overlords who had undergone knee surgery suddenly became obscure.
At the beginning of the second quarter, it was a substitute war, after a few games in the opening season, the Rockets' bench lineup has become famous in the league, they are facing so many teams' benches, including even the bench lineups of the two teams that won last year's championship, they can all play a five-five open, there is a substitute lineup that they can't win, and the knife really hasn't been able to lose their bench lineup, and the Rockets bench is also a five-five open, and when they encounter a weak opponent, they can unceremoniously kill.
Now I don't know how many teams' general managers and head coaches are envious of the Rockets' big list.
If you put aside Totoro, Gasol Jr., two rookies, Lowry, a third-grader, and Zach Randolph, the only players the Rockets can get their hands on are Little Giants, David Lee, and Artest. Battier is the four of them, and together with a Brooks, they just make up a starter.
But now Totoro has played superstar potential, Gasol Jr. and Lowry have played their starting potential, rotten tofu and prodigal son have turned back and played at an all-star level, and the Rockets have suddenly transformed into a giant team that everyone has a headache when they see it..........
By the time they started the second quarter, the Suns were stretched to 10 points by the Rockets, and Nash and Stoudemire turned dark, and their games seemed to be more auspicious again.
Nash thumped and threw three three-pointers, and assisted Xiaobawang to complete a mid-range shot and an air-cut dunk, and then the Rockets hooked three two-pointers by Yao Ming, Randolph hit two mid-range shots, and Totoro took the time to come up with a three-pointer, and the Suns were busy for a long time and still didn't pull in even a point difference, which made them feel desperate.
Now the Rockets have slowly possessed the temperament that a strong team should have, no matter how tangled the front play is, they always have a way to open up the point difference, whether it is on the defensive end or the offensive end, they always have a way to keep these points difference, so as to include the victory as a matter of course.
In the third quarter, dunk king Richardson and Big Shark O'Neal broke out for a while, and they combined to score 8 points to let the Suns chase only 3 points away from the Rockets, and saw the hope of a comeback.
However, at this time, Totoro, who had been guarded by the double in the first half and was relieved in the second half, changed his form again, turned on the super transformation mode, and launched a counterattack with the Rocket team like a tiger out of the gate.
Touching the fish and dribbling Richardson hit a three-point shot, made a successful foul after slinging Stoudemire, scored a dry pull-out jump shot after beating Nash with his back to the back, grabbed a frontcourt rebound on the inside and then blocked O'Neal, and then was slapped to the floor by the opponent...........
Of course, when the big shark's big palm waved over, Totoro made a protective move by himself, and after falling to the ground, he rolled a few more times to unload the force, coupled with a body density as strong as James and a strong waist and abdomen ability that James did not have, Totoro was stunned and was not injured under O'Neal's foul, which is also quite powerful.
My Neighbor Totoro scored nine straight points in three minutes, once again single-handedly pushing the Suns down the momentum of the counterattack, allowing the Rockets to continue to enter the fourth quarter with a double-digit point difference.
There is still a lot of game time, but the hearts of the Suns players have been smoothed out by the Rockets.
The most disappointing thing is that there is nothing more disappointing than seeing the light in the darkness and then falling into the endless darkness, the Suns have used their power more than once to close the score, but every time they want to overtake, the Rockets always have someone who can stand up and respond to themselves and then re-open the score, in the basketball game, there is nothing more demoralizing than this..........
