Tonight's Houston is particularly lively, and there is also a huge wave of enthusiasm in Houston about this Chinese derby.

Because of Yao Ming's existence, Houston has more and more Chinese elements. So, this game has also received a lot of attention in Houston locally. And the publicity for the race in Houston was also very strong, and a week ago, many Houston buses had posters for the game.

It's fair to say that a week ago, Houston was already in the middle of the game. When all the fans' desires and feelings have been adjusted, when the game comes, their pent-up desires and hopes have found a venue to release, the effect will be unexpectedly powerful.

Those who bought tickets entered the Toyota Center early, and those who did not have tickets gathered outside the plaza of the Toyota Center, waiting for a refund, and they had to watch the game on the big screen outside the stadium.

When the players of both teams came out to warm up, the noise seemed to shake the entire stadium.

In the East Stand, which is full of the Rockets' most loyal fans, the two fans are close to each other at this time.

"Do you say it's our Yao Mingqiang, or Indiana's Li Chengqiang?"

"The two of them are in different positions, and it's not easy to compare! But just look at the watch at the Olympics and you'll know. Although I don't want to admit it, the truth is that Li Cheng alone dominated the final result of the whole game. ”

"Alas! But to have Yao Ming, we are already very happy. ”

"Look at their table for this game! But I definitely don't think the two of them will meet very often. ”

"Li Cheng is not a player who has broken through a lot after all, but his shooting is really very incomprehensible."

"I don't think it's an unsolvable problem, it's a bug on the pitch. When have you ever seen such an efficient defender? He's also a shooter-biased guard. ”

"Don't talk about it, this stadium is so noisy, it's hard to talk all day."

"Isn't it? The atmosphere today is probably the busiest this season. ”

……

Li Cheng bumped into Yao Ming again when he was about to go back to the locker room after the warm-up.

"The wine you drank at noon didn't affect you!"

"I'm drunk. I'm not sober yet! ”

Yao Ming gave Li Cheng a big roll of his eyes and said, "Are you kidding me?" Would you get drunk with a glass of red wine? You think I don't know how much you drink? Isn't that what the god of wine in Shanghai is talking about? ”

Li Cheng also glanced at Yao Ming, and then said seriously: "First of all." I'm not a Shanghai wine god. Secondly, you know that we only had a glass of red wine and you still come to ask me? Unless you're drugged in wine. ”

Yao Ming put his arm around Li Cheng's shoulders and said with a smile: "I'll see you later, don't let me cap you." ”

"Is there anyone in this alliance who can get me to the end of the day?"

Hearing Li Cheng's words, Yao Ming thought about it and realized that it seemed that Li Cheng had really not been hated so far. But then again, Li Cheng's breakthroughs were all made after completely throwing off the opponent, and his shooting was even more inexplicable, who could get such a large-angle backward jumper?

"Then you're being given me a chance!" Yao Ming said.

Li Cheng smiled: "Don't worry! Definitely won't give you a chance. I want to continue my winning streak! ”

Yao Ming shook his head and said, "We will definitely not give up victory. ”

"Don't say these pointless, goodbye game."

"There's a very important thing to ask you." Yao Ming touched Li Cheng's hair and said, "How long will you fight today?" ”

"48 minutes!" Li Cheng said without hesitation. Although Li Cheng won't really play this game for so long, he must ensure a victory for the Pacers today.

"Looks like it's going to be a tough battle today!"

"A must!" Li Cheng said with great interest.

……

Back in the locker room, Li Cheng said to O'Brien: "Coach, I won't limit my playing time today!" ”

O'Brien also understood Li Cheng's psychology very well, and said, "Today is your chance to show your face in front of your compatriots, how can I, an old man, disturb you?" ”

Li Cheng hadn't spoken yet. Granger next to him had already interjected: "What's more, someone has to show his strength in front of a beautiful girl!" ”

Li Cheng patted Granger on the head and said, "What nonsense!" ”

"Anyway, you know in your own heart, who did you give the ticket? Hum! Granger looked at O'Brien again and said, "Coach, I dare to play." Li Cheng, this kid, will ask for leave tonight. ”

Li Cheng's face was full of black lines, and his imagination was full of admiration for Granger.

However, when encountering this kind of thing, Li Cheng didn't mention it again, he knew very well that if he explained this kind of thing. It's going to get darker and darker.

The time spent waiting in the dressing room flew by and soon the game began.

When the Houston Rockets players came out first, a tsunami of cheers rushed in. And when Yao Ming appeared, the cheers on the scene reached its peak. And when it was the Pacers' turn to play, they didn't enjoy the treatment of the away team, and the cheers were still fierce, and when Li Cheng came out, the cheers he caused were comparable to Yao Ming's.

There are a lot of Chinese people at today's scene, and some domestic first-line stars have also come to Houston. In addition, a group of Chinese fans came to Houston with the "basketball tour" of the tour group.

This Chinese derby has really boosted a lot of consumption in China, and the fame of Li Cheng and Yao Ming is unmatched in the domestic sports circle. O'Brien also understood Li Cheng's psychology very well, and said, "Today is your chance to show your face in front of your compatriots, how can I, an old man, disturb you?" ”

Before Li Cheng could speak, Granger next to him had already interjected: "What's more, someone has to show his strength in front of a beautiful girl!" ”

Li Cheng patted Granger on the head and said, "What nonsense!" ”

"Anyway, you know in your own heart, who did you give the ticket? Hum! Granger looked at O'Brien again and said, "Coach, I dare to play hard, this kid Li Cheng will take leave tonight." ”

Li Cheng's face was full of black lines, and his imagination was full of admiration for Granger.

However, when encountering this kind of thing, Li Cheng didn't mention it again, he knew very well that if he explained this kind of thing, it would definitely get darker and darker.

The time spent waiting in the dressing room flew by and soon the game began.

When the Houston Rockets players came out first, the tsunami-like cheers rushed to the face, and when Yao Ming played, the cheers on the scene reached its peak. And when it's the Pacers' turn to play, (to be continued......)
