The rocket all looked at it stunned, the 20-year-old young man who killed the rocket, everyone was very helpless, the lore is like this, the last second is heaven, the next second is hell.

Can just looking at it solve the problem? Is it just a game that has been lost to be turned back? This is obviously impossible, and the Rockets can only silently bear the pain caused by the Raptors in this game.

Everyone could only leave the court silently and returned to the locker room, where everyone saw Daniels sitting there confused.

Seeing such a scene, Lao Tang's heart chuckled, he knew that this young man was in a state of self-blame, if he couldn't open this kid's heart knot, then this person's career would also be greatly affected.

However, Lao Tang is also an experienced person, and he didn't say anything in the locker room, just asked the players to pack up their things and prepare to leave.

However, when all the players got on the team's bus, Old Tang called Daniels to sit down next to him. Then he said to Daniels: "Antonio, I criticize you today, do you know why? ”

Daniels hung his head and said, "I know, because I fought today and the team lost, and now I already know that the big newspapers will attack me like this tomorrow." ”

Old Tang haha, and said: "No, no, no, Antonio, I criticize you not for this, but for why can't you be more fierce when you hit people today, if you are direct, Christie sent off the field, I believe that today's game will be our rocket." ”

Daniels looked at Lao Tang in disbelief, didn't say anything for a long time, and finally muttered: "Coach, I heard you right." ”

Lao Tang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Boy, you should know about my injury back then." ”

Antonio nodded and said, "I know, that could be the worst injury in the history of the league." ”

Lao Tang said very easily: "Fortunately, although it has had a huge impact on my career, I think it is more of a life experience, just like you are now." ”

Daniels, who was a little confused, raised his hand and scratched it and said, "What does it have to do with me." ”

Lao Tang looked at this black boy, and said with some hatred: "Antonio, I know some of the things you are thinking about now, you should also know that Dejan will leave the Rockets after this season and will play in Europe, so that you will become the main point guard of the Rockets, and what a main player needs most is a cool head." And you're still a point guard, but your performance today really disappointed me, and I know you're going to be very much like proving your quality right now, trying to make your performance better than that of Dejan. That's how you can rightfully be the main guard of the Rockets, but you forgot the most important point, you know what? ”

Daniels shook his head in confusion, signaling that he didn't know.

Old Tang smiled and continued: "I know you don't understand yourself, you have to remember that you are Antonio?" Daniels, not DeYoung? Bodiloga, if you don't even understand this, then you don't have the right to stay with the Rockets. ”

Listening to Lao Tang's words, Daniels fell into deep thought, and remained silent for a long time.

Lao Tang didn't interrupt him, because he knew that such a hurdle needed to be passed by himself, and if he crossed this hurdle, then this kid would take a big step forward.

Because at the level of Daniels, there is actually not a lot of technical training, and what they need most now is psychological training.

Daniels, who had been thinking for a while, raised his head and looked at Lao Tang and said, "Coach, do you mean to let me be an Antonio as myself?" Daniels, instead of doing a second so-and-so, or who is a substitute. ”

Lao Tang laughed when he heard this and said, "You're right, Antonio, if I'm Antonio?" Daniels, it's not who is second, who is second, if you can't even do this, then you go home. ”

Daniels, who continued to ponder for a while, seemed to have undergone a metamorphosis at this moment, and heard him say to Lao Tang: "Coach, thank you for your enlightenment, I am much better now, I swear to you now, you will definitely see a real Antonio in the future?" Daniels. You know, Dejan's departure touched me a lot, the most player of a team like the Rockets, the pressure on me is quite a hit, and Dejan's realization in the Rockets is perfect, after his departure I am really afraid that I can make up for the gap in Dejan's departure, a complete team like the Rockets, in the sudden loss of a corner of the team, let me make up for it, I really don't know if I can stand it, the pressure is too great, and the questionable surname will be much greater, The idea now is to see if I can get the fans and the media to accept me before Dejan leaves, and that pressure may be the reason for my fight today. I want you to forgive me coach. ”

Looking at Daniels who sincerely apologized, Lao Tang was also very pleased, he knew that this kid's heart knot had been completely opened, and what Daniels would develop into in the future could only rely on himself.

Rockets, who returned to the hotel for a night's rest, got on the plane early the next morning, and they flew straight to Cleveland to challenge the Knights.

On the Raptors' side, after the game, Maddy was still a little dumbfounded, watching his cousin laughing and shouting in front of him, and he was proud and proud that his cousin could complete a stunner against such a strong team.

Carter said very excitedly: "Hey, I said Tracy, don't you look like this, you just killed the strongest team in the league in the game, look at your stupid appearance, how can you look like a high school student, dull-eyed and listless." Okay, Tracy is going to the best nightclub in Toronto tonight to cool off, and I don't know if the chick who has a fever wants us to. ”

At this time, Maddie was still immersed in the state of her lore rocket, looked at her cousin and asked softly, "Vince, is it really me who killed the rocket?"

Carter looked at Maddy, covered his eyes and said, "I said, Tracy, you did it, you killed the rocket, there is no doubt about that." ”

Maddie took a deep breath and said, "Oh my God, it's incredible, I still can't believe it, you know?" I thought it was a dream. ”

Carter jumped up to Maddie's side, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Hey, don't worry, Tracy, you're going to be a big star tomorrow morning, so you said you were going to have a treat today." ”

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows at Maddie, Carter's actions completely aroused Maddie's contempt, and Maddie said angrily: "Mr. Vinnce, you must know that your worth is now several times that of mine, and your sponsorship contract is also several times that of mine, you let me have a treat, you are embarrassed to say it." If I invite it, you can choose the roadside bar in Toronto, you can't have the highest price of alcohol for $100, and I still have more than $1,000 in my wallet, which is enough for you to drink. ”

Maddie's remarks made Carter furious, Carter pointed at Maddie and said: "Stinky boy, even if you make less money, there is always money in the nightclub, it wasn't me who went out in the past, this time you were in the limelight and asked you to have a treat, you just pushed back, what do you mean." ”

Looking at the angry Carter, Maddie just glanced at it lightly and said, "I don't know, which bastard used me as a shield to go out and fool around, and then said to be with me, if someone's current girlfriend knows, ha, it would be quite interesting." After Carter heard Maddie's words, the angry expression on his face collapsed at that time, and he whispered flattery: "Hey, Tracy, are we brothers?" Brothers are meant to cover each other, aren't they? How much it hurts brotherhood like you. ”

Maddie was still so lazy and said: "Okay, Vince, like you said, brother, you should be considerate of each other, I like to drink the 'Blue Danube' now, do you think brother's request can be agreed." ”

After finishing speaking, he also raised an eyebrow at Carter, and Carter gritted his teeth and said, "You kid, remember for me, the kind of mixed cocktail you said is expensive to death, don't let me grab your handle in the future." ”

After finishing speaking, he snorted heavily, Maddie didn't care which one he could, he directly picked up Carter and the two went out to celebrate, celebrating Maddie's killing of Rocket.

Not to mention, Carter and Maddie celebrated how they went, and the next day they got on the plane of the rocket, and appeared in Cleveland that night to challenge the Cavaliers.

Although he has just experienced a lore and a brawl, although the main players of the Rockets are still at a low point in terms of physical fitness, they are such a rocket, and they are not something that the Cavaliers can deal with.

Although the game, Sean? Camp tried his best, but the 'rain man', who was now unable to jump, had lost the kind of deterrent he had in the supersonic under Big Ben's defense.

And the other players of the Cavaliers, without the leadership of Kemp, are basically a mess, and the main force and benches of the Rockets took 3 quarters to get the Cavaliers.

101:92 Although the Rockets relaxed a little in the fourth quarter, they still won the last of their five consecutive Eastern Conference road trips.

After the game, the rocket went straight to the airport and flew back to Houston overnight.

When landing in Houston in the early morning, the Rockets players slept on the plane, and after being woken up by the uniform team, Lao Tang directly took a day off, and the Rockets players cheered, at least they could have a good rest for a day, and the two consecutive back-to-back games have seriously weakened their physical strength.

After returning home, the Rockets players slept for half a day, and Garnett was on the big bed at home, and his saliva had wet the pillow. Arun's room was artificially darkened, and Bodiloga turned off all communication tools on his body, and even the landline phone had been turned into a recording phone.

Da Yao went home in his own special big bed, sleeping shirtless in the dark, and Da Ben is the same, and monsters are tired.

Although the other bench players are not as tired as they are, five games in seven days, and two back-to-back Bies in a row, also make the Rockets' bench players consume a lot.

The players can rest, but the coach does not, and the three giants of the Rockets are chatting about the future of the Rockets when the Rockets players are sleeping.

Tiger looked at the somewhat tired old soup, frowned and said, "Rudy, you look tired." ”

Lao Tang smiled reluctantly and said, "Isn't this exploited by you, a capitalist?" Otherwise, you won't have to confiscate the money I put with you. "Although I am a little tired, the old soup can still joke, which proves that there is nothing wrong with the old soup.

Tiger shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Okay, Rudy, you can bear with it now, and by the end of the season, you'll have a full hungry holiday." ”

When Lao Tang heard this, he sighed and said, "Boss, have you forgotten this year's Olympics, I still have to go to Sydney." ”

Tiger patted his head and whispered, "yes, I forgot about it." However, he continued with a smile: "Okay, if Rudy can win the Olympic championship, then he can be regarded as a world-class coach, in 98 a bunch of miscellaneous troops can be in the third place in Athens, if you win the championship in Sydney, your fame will really go to heaven, I don't know how to keep you." ”

Dawson on the side said: "Boss, now you just want Rudy to leave him, he won't leave, the current rocket is as important as his life, and now it is said that only Rudy has a chance to surpass the 'cardinal', do you think he will go." ”

In the face of his old friend's ridicule, Tiger laughed loudly, while Lao Tang laughed bitterly.

Looking at Lao Tang's wry smile, Tiger said: "Rudy, this consecutive away games, I see that the players are very tired. ”

Lao Tang sighed and said: "Yes, now I even have the heart to kill the person who gave the Rockets the schedule, don't you know, first New York, then Milwaukee, then Indiana, then Toronto, and finally Cleveland, oh my God, and it's two back-to-back, and this kind of schedule can only be discharged by the idiots in the league." ”

Listening to Lao Tang's scolding, Tiger also smiled knowingly.

Immediately, Tiger continued to ask: "Rudy, how is Daniels, what do you think about the conflict with Christie when he was with the Raptors." ”

Having said that, Old Tang finally knew what Tiger was looking for him today.

Lao Tang pondered for a while, and Lao Tang said in a deep voice: "Boss, I don't know what you are dissatisfied with Antonio now, but I want to believe that he can definitely bear the huge space left when Dejan leaves, Antonio may be a lot worse than Dejan in offense, but he is much stronger than Dejan in defense, I don't mean that Dejan's defense is not good, he can only be limited by physical fitness, and some of his defensive actions can't be done very well, but Antonio does not have such a problem, although he sacrifices offense, But defensive reinforcement is the basis for a team to go further. If the Rockets win the NBA championship again this year, then it is conceivable what the whole league will become this summer, all teams will start to play the scale of hoarding players, and all teams that aspire to a championship will aim for the Rockets, if so, the Rockets will have to strengthen their defense while entanglement with opponents. So, I think Antonio is still a good fit for the Rockets. ”

Tiger looked at the old soup who was talking eloquently, and couldn't help laughing: "Rudy, do you think we have any opinion about Antonio?" ”

Lao Tang looked at Tiger who was laughing and grabbed the throw and said, "Isn't it, I guessed wrong." ”

Tiger took a long breath, stabilized his mind, and continued: "I don't have any opinion on Antonio, I just want to know how he is doing recently, just after the fight, and the team also lost, this kid must be uncomfortable, I want you to have a good talk with him, don't let him have any ideas." ”

Lao Tang scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Yes, I thought you had moved your heart to trade Antonio." ”

Tiger and Dawson glanced at each other and continued to laugh, the two looked at the somewhat embarrassed old soup, and the laughter was really bad.

However, Lao Tang's heart for the maintenance of his players is still very admirable, and a coach who can care for his players like this deserves his success.

After the whole Rockets team rested for a day, when the whole team concentrated on training the next day, the spirit of the Rockets players improved significantly, Lao Tang looked at his players very proud, this is a strong team, in his opinion, losing to the Raptors is definitely an accident, the last moment of the last kill, that kind of thing will not happen every day.

Lao Tang, who was on the sidelines, said loudly to the rested Rockets players: "Guys, how is it, I felt good after a day of rest at home." ”

Garnett said with a smile, "It's good, if only I could fix it for a few more days." Old Tang glanced sideways at Garnett and said, "Okay, Kevin, you have to announce your retirement directly now, you will rest at home for a long, long time." ”

Garnett shrank his neck and didn't continue to speak, he knew that if he was going on at this time, he would only be unlucky.

Old Tang didn't bother with Garnett, and continued: "Okay, it feels good to go home. However, we can't delay training today, I can tell you, it's the end of the season, you all have to be careful of your injuries, if you get injured and can't make it to the playoffs, you know? ”

The Rockets all agreed, and Lao Tang nodded with satisfaction, letting Brooks lead the team to start training.

Lao Tang looked at his next opponent at home on the sidelines, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the Los Angeles Clippers, hehe, it's really a good team to recover its strength.
