“READY？ READY？ ”

Toyota Center Arena in Houston.

The referee came to the center circle of the court with a basketball in hand, and after confirming the preparation to the players of both teams, a whistle blew and threw the ball high into the air.

It's game on!

"It's game on! It's game on! Audience friends, what you are seeing now is the NBA regular season, the Houston Rockets, hosting the menacing Sacramento Kings! ”

With Smith's announcement, Cousins grabbed the ball from Asik's head, the basketball fell to Evans, and the Kings took the lead.

"Both teams came to the court with a winning streak in the new season, and the Rockets have won three consecutive games at the beginning of the season, and the new lineup has run in some good sparks, and the new season seems to be promising!"

Smith said: "The Kings have made a very small number of minor repairs to last season's roster, and have hardly made any trades, and the original team has been upgraded in the offseason, and the new season is also full of ambition!" ”

In terms of the starting lineup, the home team Rockets sent a combination of Jeremy Lin, Harden, Chandler Parsons, Patrick Patterson, and Omar Asik.

This lineup can be offensive and defensive, with breakthroughs inside and shots outside, and the rebounding protection ability is quite good, and it is a starting combination with actual combat effectiveness that far exceeds the strength of the book lineup.

"Among them, Jeremy Lin and Harden are both good breakers, Harden's shooting ability is also extremely outstanding, and the two players on the front line are also capable of inside and out, and the offensive means are comprehensive."

O'Neal said with a rare serious analysis: "Although Asik is in a hurry to attack, his defensive skills are very deep, especially in the face of the inside line with a strong back basket, Asik's height, arm span, and strength confrontation will create a lot of trouble for the opponent." From this point of view, the King's Cousins will probably be a little difficult to fight today! ”

"The outside defense is pretty good, too, Team Rockets!"

Barkley added: "Don't look at Harden who seems to be a little slacking defensively right now, but the physicality is there. Players at every position of the Rockets, as long as they defend seriously, are defenders of the league's average level, or even higher. There are at least three points that can hold the ball and distribute the ball on the offensive end, and this Rockets are actually very strong...... Strike! The Kings score first! Tyrek Evans' mid-lane throw, the Kings lead 2-0! ”

“NICE！”

On the court, the Kings have already scored, using Gu Yu and Cousins, the containment of an outside and an inside scoring point, Evans took advantage of his height to almost press Jeremy Lin to the three-second zone, and one turned and threw to score, easily freehand.

"Although the lineup on the Kings' side has not changed much, from the four games since the start of the season, the improvement of the players is still obvious!"

Smith began to introduce the Kings: "Unlike the Rockets' idea of 'every position, try to have all-round players', the Kings are like retrograde aggressors in today's NBA all-around tide - players in each position are doing their own duties, standing in their own positions, playing teamwork, using passing balls and fixed-point heads-up to solve problems, playing quite quaint." ”

"yes, watching the King's game is like making up a video of the game from twenty years ago!"

O'Neill nodded: "Every time I attack and defend, I am constantly running, interspersed, covering, and cooperating, and the ball will always be handed to the most suitable person to end the attack in the most appropriate way." For someone my age, that's what basketball is all about! What kind of guard chases the hat, what center shoots three-pointers, it looks pretty cool, but that's not how basketball is played! ”

"Phew, that's because you can't shoot threes yourself, and then you look down on the current center!"

Barkley's complaining firepower can be described as the strongest choice in the history of world television sports broadcasting: "Although from a certain point of view, I also agree with your statement...... Good ball, good ball! The Rockets also scored! This ball was a shot made by Lin Crazy to Harden, and Harden ran back to score a layup!! ”

"Yo, it's rare."

On the court, Gu Yu was stopped by Asik's cover just now, and he couldn't keep up with Harden's running position, and turned around and spewed trash talk: "You can actually play without the ball." ”

“…… , don't look at who I used to play with in the backcourt! ”

Harden's sentence is rich in meaning and worth recalling......

I'm going to ...... you!

Although the words that came out of his mouth seemed to be a bit weak, Harden was not convinced by Gu Yu at all.

Gu Yu and Harden are contemporaneous players, and when Harden became famous, Gu Yu was still a small character that no one knew about, and he was not even a passerby.

Now that he finally got rid of the "care" of his eldest brother and second brother, Harden got a big contract as he wished, and also got the absolute core status, and when he came to the Rockets, he was full of energy and made up his mind to play his own glory days in Houston.

At the beginning of the new season, Harden's wish was greatly satisfied, the Rockets won consecutive games, and Harden himself played a terrifying performance, and for a time became the next super all-round superstar candidate in the minds of fans.

At the time of the Thunder, Harden was already a pretty good star. But almost everyone who mentions the Thunder has the names of Durant and Westbrook in mind.

Fans and experts are not to blame for this, after all, the Thunder are the team with the second few, there is no doubt about it. Even if Harden, as a super sixth man, plays quite eye-catching, but the Thunder belong to Durant and Wei Shao, and there is still no suspense.

However, Jinling is not a thing in the pool, Harden's ability and potential are destined to be definitely not an ordinary person, it is impossible to be satisfied with the life shrouded in the shadow of the eldest brother and the second brother, sooner or later he will have to find his own piece of the world.

So in the playoffs last season, Harden held his breath and thought that if he had the chance, he would have to carry the team alone.

In the Western Conference playoffs, Harden did.

In the face of the Western powers, Harden played a wonderful game worthy of history as the sixth man, and many times when the team was in danger, he turned the clouds and rain with one hand to save the Thunder from fire and water, and was once considered to be the savior of the Thunder.

can make people, the Thunder team has been lying on the salary for many years, and finally broke into the Finals last season. Facing Chen Mu and his Philadelphia 76ers, Harden smashed up.

"Every minute of play in the Finals will take $100,000 off Harden's contract for next season."

Some ball critics even said that in the game against Philadelphia, Durant faced the defensive maniac Iguodala, and Westbrook faced the new court wizard Stephen Curry, both of which were under great pressure.

What about Harden?

He faced the aging pure goalscorer Kyle Korver.

This group looked like there was no suspense in the matchup, and it should have been a great opportunity for Harden to shine. However, too much, Harden wanted to show himself too much, and handled the ball too impatiently, which made his own rhythm mess up, so that the final performance was like an undercover agent.

On the other hand, Durant and Wei Shao faced tremendous pressure, burst out with amazing energy, played an extremely brilliant performance, and continued to contribute to their destined and magnificent careers.

Although to be honest, in the end, the Thunder lost not because Harden didn't work hard, but because Philadelphia had Gao (Chen) Da (Mu).

But the sparse performance in the finals has become a shadow that Harden is difficult to get rid of in a short period of time.

Then came the offseason, when Harden and the Thunder fell apart over a contract, and finally ushered in a new contract, a new team.

In the face of the ridicule of the whole world, I don't know how many people are waiting to see the joke's playful eyes

James Harden, the fire of revenge, burning.

In his first game with a new team, Harden scored 37 points and 12 assists, becoming one of the most feared stars in history after switching to a new team.

Originally, Harden thought that with such a performance, he would finally have the opportunity to step on the head of his eldest brother and second brother, come to the front page headlines, and become the hottest superstar in the league in the new season.

But a big back head named Gu Yu used a 65-point horror performance to steal the limelight from Harden.

"Hairstyle brother is super god! Breaking five records in one race, it has become a benchmark for the new generation! ”

"Magical night! The hairstyle brother covers the sky with one hand, and the Spurs are sinking! ”

"Invincible gods! The hairstyle brother scores are all included, and he is proficient in all eighteen martial arts! ”

looked at the overwhelming news, and looked at Gu Yu's wanted expression all over the screen

Harden's angry beard is about to explode.

Keep fighting!

Harden doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, he finally has a new team and a new environment, but he is suppressed by someone and can't get out.

In the second game, Harden made persistent efforts, shooting 14 of 19, with an epic shooting rate of more than 70 percent, and scored 45 points in a single game, setting a new all-time scoring record for the Toyota Center.

It stands to reason that such a performance, at any time, is enough to send Harden to the headlines.

It's a pity that the first game of the season was a terrifying baptism of the 65ers, and when the fans saw Harden's 45 points, they only raised their eyes slightly, and then they should do what to do.

…… Angry!

Originally, there was no holiday between Harden and Gu Yu, but in this way, Harden had already regarded Gu Yu as his imaginary enemy in his heart.

In the third game, Harden hibernate a little and "only" scored 24 points.

It's not that Harden is in bad shape, he's just conserving his strength.

Because in the next game, you will have to face the king and face the damn Gu Yu.

Harden has already thought about it, and in this game, he will take Gu Yu and open a new curtain for his Houston king era!

prefers to die or not, and some media died before the game, turning up the old news more than two years ago:

In the first game of Gu Yu's career, the two were opposed, Harden, and Gu Yu, who was still a rookie at the time, showed off his face. In the end, he even lost control of his emotions and received two technical fouls, and for the first time in his career, he was sent off for accumulating technical fouls.

Seeing that this news was frantically forwarded, countless people were waiting to see their jokes, and Harden's anger was already about to blow up the Toyota Center.

So......

“…… Bang!! ”

"Roar——!!!

Forcibly break through the one-handed gliding slam buckle!!

In the face of Gu Yu's defense, Harden used his body to open the way, scored with an extremely fierce dunk, and after landing, he glared at Gu Yu fiercely, and roared angrily in the sky.

Gu Yu?

Cousin?

Phew!

Today, I, James Harden, am going to take the blood of your big back......

“…… Sacrifice knives for my James Harden era! ”
