Chapter 32: Style Change

"Gong Feng, Hamilton, what are you two going on in your heads? Where are you today? Collins started snarling at two men at his halftime.

On Feb. 18, the Wizards sat at home to meet the challenge of the Rockets, and at halftime, the Rockets' two-shot combination scored 25 points under the defense of Bow Peak and Hamilton.

Although the main responsibility is not on the two Gong Feng, who made you the starter in this game?

As two rookies during the rookie period, can't be sprayed by their own head coach?

"Since the Rockets are trying their best to win this game, we can't lose, this is a game that must be won, I don't care what kind of grudge he has with someone on the Wizards, I just know one thing, our Wizards are a strong team now, the No. 1 team in the East, I don't care what reason you have, what your state is, now you have to show me the pride of the strong team, first of all, start by limiting these two guards."

Francis and Mobley did not go down to rest in the first half of the game, this is the rhythm of trying their best, Olajuwon was sent to the Raptors this season, the Rockets' interior has already become defensive, and a very surprising Wizards is that all the main players of the Rockets basically only rest for one or two minutes in the first half.

Of course, this is not bad news, the bad thing is that the Rockets' shooting percentage is really terrible right now!

Camby is still injured and didn't play as he has in history, a very serious injury, and he will definitely not be able to play this season, and the Knicks trade has been discovered for the first time that it may have been earned.

The Rockets are now tightly 17-34, a one-third win rate, and basically missed the playoffs, and the Knicks at least got a high draft pick as their consolation.

However, Kwame is not better, Kevin Cato is responsible for the role of defense and card man after Camby's injury, Cato who played against Kwame today did not have the slightest idea of wanting to teach Kwame a lesson, but pragmatically stuck Kwame when grabbing rebounds, defended the restricted area, and gave Kwame space to shoot.

Kwame's back-to-back singles have never been completed, maybe yesterday's training was really miserable, Kwame's hand today was very average, so it was a tie with the Rockets at halftime.

The two rookies of the Wizards are really in unison, when they are in good shape, they are all in a good way, and when they are in bad shape, they are all bad, and this is what makes Collins feel angry.

"Gong Feng, you sit on the bench in the second half and think about it, take a look, don't think about the game with your usual thoughts, empty yourself, and then fill things again."

"Jordan, you play the main organization, slow down the rhythm appropriately, but don't give these Rockets people time to rest, Hamilton, Gerrard, you two are ready to play, I want you to defend the Rockets' guards well, don't let them be too presumptuous, and Gerald you have to pay attention to grabbing rebounds, since Kwame is being targeted to death, your chance has come." After speaking, he didn't pay attention to Kwamei's meaning.

"Wang Zhizhi, you have to have more offensive options after you play, today's Rockets obviously have a small lineup, you who came out of the old Nelson, I don't believe you don't have the ability to play alone."

"There is no doubt, just give me a good game, since the opponent is desperate, we can't be weak to the other party, we have come to this point, we have come to this point when everyone is not optimistic, then we have to let those who look down on you take a good look at what is the strength of the Wizards."

The Rockets' performance in the second half was really normal, although the performance of the Rockets' double guns was still so eye-catching, but the Rockets still relied on their own strength to slowly gain a foothold, Wang Zhizhi became the main scorer in the third quarter, and in the face of a forward line that was a head shorter than himself, Wang's offensive rhythm was very good.

No one in the Rockets dared to help defend, Cato had a very hard time facing Kwamei, and the second half of Kwame was a little violent, if it weren't for Wang's very normal play, Kwamei might have started to play with his back to his back strongly, although this had a very large consumption of his undeveloped back and physical strength.

"Gong Feng, what the hell do you think?" Looking at the Wizards team who had recovered on the court, Collins began to take the initiative to ask, the current performance of Gong Feng is really too different from the beginning.

"Coach, I'm scared!" Gong Feng looked at his trembling hands and said with some emotional instability.

"What do you mean? Are you still afraid of the path you have found? ”

"Yes! That's it, I suddenly had this feeling after training all night yesterday...... I'm scared, scared that I'm going to be another version of myself! ”

"Can you have a comparator that will give me some insight into your situation? Or who are you looking for to transcend? ”

"Johnson! Johnson during the two-game winning streak! I can pass the ball like he does, there's still a lot of gap, but I can do it like him! ”

Collins first felt a little tricky about this statement, which meant that the absolute core was going to be given to you?

Since he can still bite the Rockets in the third quarter, the game in the fourth quarter seems to have no suspense, because the players of the Rockets seem to have no physical reserves, and Gong Feng is on the court again, but for the first time, he does not give his teammates a sunny feeling, but gives people a domineering taste.

Bow Peak led Haywood, Nesby, Hamilton, and Puoboye to start the Wizards' own fast-paced, Bow Peak's rhythm.

The people in this lineup are all candidates who can run and jump, in the face of Francis's somewhat tired look, Gong Feng started today's first attempt, if his passing was like a spring breeze to his teammates in the past, then now it is a kind of storm, Gong Feng's pass was the ball to find people, and now it is people chasing the ball.

Although the result of this will lead to more mistakes for the Wizards, such passes are more dangerous, and it can be said that when the Wizards players can get the ball, it means that the Wizards can score.

Looking at Gong Feng's pass, Jordan showed an unusually surprised look for the first time, such an organized offense reminded Jordan of the era when the Los Angeles Lakers and the Celtics competed against each other, and remembered the second year after the Lakers lost to the Celtics, Johnson of the Lakers who had been trained by the devil.

Johnson's passing that year was so oppressive, in the Lakers team at that time, there was only one standard for the main player to play, that is, to be able to catch up with Johnson's passes, and failing to catch up means that you are in the Lakers at the end.

Parker Riley's team was originally an all-offense and all-defense team, and everyone's physical fitness began to accumulate during the regular season, from the slow heat at the beginning, to the acceleration of the season interruption, and then to the peak of the Finals, which was also the successful revenge of the Lakers against the Celtics that year.

It was the pinnacle Celtics with a trident, which could be said to be the dominant team in the East at the time, with the best forward combination, and three of the top 50 stars were on the Celtics, but the Celtics still lost to the Lakers. Although the Lakers' players are not bad, the Lakers at that time were clean and clean to kill the Celtics, which can be described as perfect revenge.

The Lakers in the second year are coming again, facing the Bad Boy Army, the Bad Boy Army led by Daley! A five-man Super Piston team.

What was the Lakers like? Abdul-Jabbar is 41 years old and has to face the interior of the Pistons, the dirtiest Pistons who defended the dirtiest team, and the Pistons, who made Jordan helpless at the time, lost to the Lakers after seven games.

Although in the third year after that, the Lakers' Abdul-Jabbar became slower due to physical and year reasons, and the Lakers became less pressing, and became unable to withstand the interior impact of the Western team. But the Lakers still made it to the Finals...... Although the result is that the Lakers can no longer resist the Pistons' interior and Isaiah's assault, and then lose the third chance to win the championship, and finally lose the game with the humiliation of being swept.

Johnson at that time left a deep impression on Jordan!
