Chapter 82: Praise

Yao Ming had 24 points and 12 boards, My Neighbor Totoro had 26 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 blocks, Artest had 15 points, Brooks had 13 points, Zach Randolph had 10 points and 5 boards, and David Lee had 14 points and 7 boards.

The Rockets scored 6 double-doubles, but there was a too perverted Kobe Bryant on the opposite side, and the scoring of Volute alone almost offset the scoring contributions of Atai's four non-core players, but the scores of Yao Ming and Totoro did not offset the other players of the Lakers, and the Rockets naturally lay at the feet of the Lakers.

"They played better than us, they had a killer who could score consistently in key moments, he was one of the best players in the league and we didn't keep up with him at this moment, so they kicked us in the ass."

'It's my responsibility to lose this game and it's our responsibility as a team, and as a core, I didn't take over the game at the crucial moments, so we should take a good look at the footage after the game and see what the problem is.'

After the game, Adelman and Yao Ming were questioned by the media one after another, not to think that the quality of foreign media should be better than that of domestic media, and that in the face of failure, the media everywhere will take the lead in finding scapegoats, and then go down to the ground to improve the attractiveness of their reports to readers.

But what's interesting is that Totoro, a rookie, was not embarrassed by reporters, he was not deliberately ignored, but a few questions asked by reporters were relatively friendly, such as how he felt about the NBA until now, what prospects he was going to have this season, and what did he feel like he still had to strengthen, and what did he want to say about his excellent performance in today's game, almost all of them were not related to the content of the game, which made Totoro a little surprised who was already ready to take the blame.

"It was my fault for this game, we were in a stalemate with the Lakers, but I allowed the opposing player to grab an important offensive rebound at the critical moment, and the game took a turn there, and I have to bear the blame from the fans for that."

In the end, it was Totoro himself who took the initiative to raise the issue, and the reporters at the scene first became silent, and then there was a loud applause.

They have seen too many players who lose the game and shirk their responsibilities, but there are very few players who can take the initiative to take the blame after losing.

These people sitting in the press gallery below are not blind or stupid, as basketball reporters, they are also industry insiders, and they know well a few turning points in this game.

But no one used this rebound to attack Totoro, and no one even mentioned it, just because Totoro is flawless enough, and you can't expect him to compete with Kobe Bryant, who has been in the NBA for ten seasons, in Game 7 of the regular season, which is unfair to Totoro.

Think about Totoro's resume before the NBA, there were no basketball honors before college, and there was only one NBA starter in college, take Totoro's teammate Brooks, who also participated in the McDonald's All-Star Game before..........

No one can imagine that Totoro can achieve something, his contribution value and efficiency value in the team is even higher than the departed Maddie, the highest template people give Totoro at the beginning of the season is only Sean Marion, thinking that his highest success is also a defensive player in the team, scoring all depends on other people's passes to shoot large gaps or air cuts, who would have expected Totoro to be able to open the general strategy, burst points and personal ball-holding ability in such a short period of time? The only explanation is that this guy didn't take it seriously when he was in college.........

No media outlet is too embarrassed to put Marion's template on Totoro, with 80% of media believing he could be the next James, even though he's been even better off the season so far than the Emperor.

After this game, Kobe's perfect individual performance was naturally blown into the sky and occupied the headlines on the official ESPNNBA website, but Totoro was not snubbed by reporters.

My neighbor totoro estimated in his heart that even if the media wanted to praise him, he would only give him a small piece of meaning, but when he browsed the ESPN website, he didn't expect the media's lack of discipline, and in order to change his face to attract readers, he actually grabbed a position under the headlines?!

"We all know that when a star is over, there will always be new stars who will continue to shine in the league, and now, when our little emperor in Cleveland and the black mamba in Los Angeles have not yet grown old and completely retired from the stage, an unknown rookie has broken into our field of vision.

In yesterday's game between the Rockets and the Lakers, when Kobe Bryant was ready to take over the game as usual as he had done hundreds of nights before, a yellow-skinned rookie bravely stood in front of him, bravely shook his head and said no, and told the other party with practical actions that this is the Toyota Center, his home court.

Although he did not lose in the end, let's not forget that this was only his seventh regular season game, and his willingness to admit his responsibility after the game showed his leadership qualities.

There are some things that a coach or trainer can give to a player, and there are things that a player is born with.

There is reason to believe that this budding little guy will get better and better. ”

This is a relatively normal report, the Houston media and domestic media are full of flattery to Totoro at the moment, and the kneeling and licking look almost blew him into a rookie who can surpass Jordan! The degree of numbness blew on Totoro himself a little disgusting.

I didn't give you any benefit from this Nima, didn't I provoke you somewhere, you guys played this trick for me..........
