On January 27, 1998, at the Alamo Arena, the home of the Spurs, the Spurs welcomed the Rockets, who had just defeated them two days earlier.

I don't know when it started, the Rockets and Spurs have become mortal enemies.

Maybe it's Olajuwon's naked, naked, naked slap in the face, or maybe it's because the Rockets, the same Texas team, have always had a better record than the Spurs.

As long as it's a game between the Rockets and the Spurs, whether it's in Houston or San Antonio, all the seats will be full.

And the same is true today, when all the San Antonio fans gathered at the Alamo Arena to watch the pinnacle matchup between two of the best teams in Texas.

"I said, how can this San Antonio home stadium look like the funeral scene, it's all black and white." Tiger was a rare away game with his team today.

Lao Tang smiled and said: "Don't you know, this is the characteristic of San Antonio's home stadium, it is said that as soon as you come here, you will have a depressed feeling, hehe, but I'm okay, I haven't felt like this yet." ”

"yes, that's a bit of a feeling, by the way, Rudy, how is our Compaq Center now, doesn't it match our Rockets." Tiger suddenly came out with such a sentence, and the old soup was a little stunned.

"This, it seems that you shouldn't ask me, this seems to be what Dawson, the general manager, should consider." Lao Tang didn't really want to answer this question head-on.

Looking at the somewhat cautious old soup, Tiger shrugged and said, "I'm just asking for your opinion, if you don't want to say it, forget it." ”

"Hehe, what, Mr. Tiger wants to build a stadium." Lao Tang heard that this kid had some other intentions.

"It's okay, I just think that the home court of the Rockets is not very good now, and the home court that can only accommodate 12,000 people is a little unworthy of the current status of the Rockets." Tiger said what he thought, but it wasn't actually his idea, because in 02, it had already begun to be built, and in 03, it had begun to be fully opened.

Tiger had just advanced the idea a few years earlier, and according to Tiger's current financial resources, it was as simple as putting a simple swimming pool in their yard.

"Why, you really have the idea to build your own arena." Lao Tang is also a little bottomless now, because he knows the strength and ability of his boss, and it is simply too easy to build a new arena for the Rockets.

It's up to Tiger himself to see if he's happy or not.

Just when Tiger and Lao Tang were muttering quietly whether they were really going to build a new arena, the game of the Spurs that the Rockets challenged away began.

This time, the jump ball is also Duncan and Garnett, these two quality supermen really didn't say anything.

This time, though, it was Duncan who won the jump ball.

"Little General" Johnson calmly organized the attack, steadily took the ball through the half court, handed the ball to the inside, after David Robinson took the ball, his eyes swept away, and he saw Barkley suddenly start and directly threw Horry, who was staring at him, a step away, and he himself was striding into the paint area of the rockets.

David Robinson made a hit pass that bounced straight into Barkley's hand, which had already invaded the paint.

Barkley, who received the ball, burst into the hoops like a tiger descending the mountain, bounced straight up, and smashed the ball into the basket before Olajuwon could react.

Everyone in the Rocket looked at the slightly trembling basket and thought in their hearts: How did this monster enter the alliance.

Watching Barkley jump off the basket with a calm face, the Rockets' coaches and players have a feeling that the Spurs seem to have undergone some metamorphosis recently.

A temperament is quietly forming.

Maybe the players feel a little worse, but the head coach of the Rockets, Rudy Tomjanovic, has a first-hand experience.

That kind of strong temperament is taking shape, and in recent years it has only been reflected in the bulls.

Except for the bulls, only the Rockets are gradually condensing such a temperament.

If the Bulls are aggressive and the Rockets are tough and broad, then the Spurs are immovable.

may not have noticed it before, but today at the home of the Spurs, Lao Tang really felt that such a temperament was gradually condensing.

Looking at Barkley, who was so arrogant and domineering before, after performing such a dunk, he was able to be so calm and just bumped into his teammates, and you could feel that the Spurs were having their own unique temperament.

In fact, as Lao Tang thought, the current Spurs are having their own temperament, and such a thing is a must for a strong team.

Since the Spurs were taken over by Vicky, this veteran leader has been transforming the Spurs in his own way.

He learned from the tactical system of Larry Brown and European tactician Obradovich, and after his own integration, a tactical system of his own is gradually taking shape.

And through this system, Vicky is gradually transforming the Spurs.

The Spurs are forming their own strong team temperament, that is, tenacious, unyielding, as resolute as a mountain, and as precise as a machine.

Watching the gradual formation of the aura of the Spurs powerhouse, Lao Tang's brows slowly squeezed together.

Looking at Lao Tang's sad look, Tiger asked strangely, "Rudy, what's wrong with you, isn't it uncomfortable there?" At this time, Tiger suddenly remembered that Lao Tang in later generations had to say goodbye to the coach position precisely because he had bladder cancer, and now he didn't want Lao Tang to fall suddenly.

Then his efforts in the past few years have been in vain.

'No, no, I'm not uncomfortable, I just feel like a team that can threaten us is forming.' Lao Tang hurriedly explained.

"The team that threatens us is forming, you mean the Spurs." Tiger pointed to the Spurs who were playing.

"Yes, their aura and temperament that is unique to a strong team is forming, when we are at home, it doesn't feel very obvious, but in their home stadium, I can clearly feel this aura and temperament." Lao Tang is like a prophet, predicting the future of Spurs.

Tiger has traveled from the afterlife, he knows the trend of the future league, he knows that the most successful team in the future league is the team in front of him, the team that can win 4 championships in the case of being regarded as a poisonous weed by Stern, and it can be a team that is good to match.

However, Tiger firmly believes that as long as his rocket is one day, then the advantage of the rocket will continue to be maintained.

At least for 10 years, any team that wants to peek at the championship will have to cross the Rockets.

Thinking of this, Tiger smiled indifferently and said: "Rudy, in my opinion, it is a kind of loneliness to have no opponent, if the rocket is on the future journey, there are not a few strong people who are knocked down and defeated, then won't our achievements be lost a lot, how can we prove that we are the strongest, only by defeating the strong, can we prove that we are the strongest." After saying these words, Tiger just looked at the old soup so indifferently.

After hearing these words, Lao Tang's heart twisted into a huge wave.

From his boss's indifferent tone, the temperament that leaks out of me is also gradually affecting the rocket.

Lao Tang feels that his future coaching career will be very exciting, with such a boss, you can't do it if you don't want to be exciting.

Thinking of this, Lao Tang also smiled faintly and said: "You are right, boss, the journey without an opponent is very boring, such as Hanbani and Rome, if there is no genius general like Hanbani and Rome as an enemy, it can reflect the greatness of the Roman Empire." In a few words, Lao Tang said the future goal of the rocket.

Tiger and Lao Tang looked at each other and smiled, neither of them was saying anything, but the essence in their eyes had already explained their intentions, and it could be said that everything was self-evident.

At this time, the game on the field is also more intense.

After the first quarter was tied at 22:22.

Once again, the rocket has developed its own changeable tactical system.

Bodi Roga's edge is even more flashy, and the offensive and defensive core composed of Garnett and Ray Allen completely suppresses the style of the Spurs.

David Robinson and Barkley looked at the young men who were roaming the field, and they were lamenting that the years had passed.

However, they are more eager for their championship dreams, and they all want to get a ring of their own at the end of their careers to end their careers.

As soon as they thought of this, the two of them were stirred again, and they could only fight for their dreams.

However, after all, the strength was slightly inferior, and the Rockets completely grinded the Spurs to death with their own bench army.

In the end, the game was 103:96

The Rockets once again beat the Spurs by seven points.

Complete the home and away double against Spurs.

The Rockets returned to their home court against the Los Angeles Clippers with a 37-4 record.
