Chapter 488: Fly to Phoenix

The inside battle between the Warriors and the Rockets in the first half made fans addicted, and some old fans were even more excited and tearful, and the confrontation between Yao Ming and Chamberlain made them feel like they were back in the seventies and eighties, when the league was still dominated by centers, and the team's confrontations were launched from the center end.

Chamberlain played 19 minutes in the first half, scoring 22 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks on 17 shots; On the other side, Yao Mingshu was no slouch, playing 21 minutes and scoring 26 points, seven rebounds and two blocks on 19 shots.

Both teams were rejoicing in the locker room: Fortunately, we have a super center in the team, otherwise the opponent's center played like this today, wouldn't it be killed?

Mutombo, the old monster, had very sharp eyes, and after he looked at Yao Ming, he said with great relief: "Yao has improved a lot this season, and he can still maintain a good body in the first half of today, which is very good." ”

Yao Ming noticed that he didn't sweat too much today, he laughed dryly, and said, "My wife is not around, hehe, so you know." ”

With tacit expressions on everyone's faces, Artest sneakily walked over and whispered, "If you need it, then you can find me, I am absolutely familiar with the strip bars in Houston, and we have people inside, the price is fair and the quality is reliable, you know." ”

Yao Ming was speechless, and he smiled bitterly: "Ron, I'm not interested in women. ”

Artest patted him on the shoulder, and the smile on his face became even more whimsy: "It's okay, it's okay, baby, sweetheart, there are a lot of men in strip bars, what kind of handsome guys do you like?" Caucasian man? Korean beauty? Italian dudes? Brazilian hunk? Even Thai ladyboys have it! ”

Yao Ming had no expression on his face.

There is a saying that moderation can be stopped, after coming back in the second half, Yao Ming and Chamberlain did not dare to be so unscrupulous anymore, and the two of them became much more serious against each other now, and at the same time, they also tried to pass on their teammates and mobilize the strength of the whole team to play the game.

Chamberlain covered Billups to break through and score a layup, and then the Rockets copied their tactics, Yao Ming covered Alston to score a layup, and this was his first score in this game, the dignified street god crossed your soul to the NBA was crossed by someone through the crotch, which made him want to cry without tears.

Because of the increased tempo in the first half, both sides were very efficient offensively, West just hit a jumper, and then Battier immediately stepped back to make a jumper and caused the opponent to foul and complete the three-pointer. Iverson began to make a splash in the ensuing game, taking advantage of Chamberlain's cover to score two consecutive breakaways, and then completing a steal to steal the ball from Weaver and plan a fast-break throw-up to score.

Alston roamed the ball outside the three-point line and under Billups' defense, he passed the ball to Hayes, who knocked over Jackson, who had to go up to the fourth position, and scored easily. However, Jackson is not a vegetarian either, Hayes was forced to rest after two consecutive fouls on him, and Landry who came off the bench was not easy to deal with, and he later blocked Iverson's driving layup.

With 2 minutes and 40 seconds left in the third quarter, Chamberlain hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the Rockets made consecutive pass errors at this time, because Chamberlain strengthened his defense and Jackson would come up from time to time to make up for the defense, Yao Ming couldn't get the ball inside, and the Warriors took the opportunity to pull the score away and directly extended the advantage to double digits.

Billups broke through the pass and Chamberlain drew a foul on Yao Ming as he prepared to force an attack, and both free throws helped the Warriors end the third quarter with a 14-point advantage at 88-74.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Rockets were whistled for a three-second defensive penalty, and Billups hit a free throw, and the Warriors continued to extend their lead.

Chamberlain and Yao Ming reached an agreement again, the two fought for life and death on the surface, but secretly left a lot of flaws, the master of the enrollment hung by a thread, some flaws that seem insignificant to ordinary fans, but in the hands of NBA-level players, they can produce terrifying destructive power.

As soon as Chamberlain let go, Yao Ming played very energetically, he grabbed the rebounds of his teammates in a row and hit the basket himself, except for being blocked by Chamberlain once during the period, Yao Ming then hit four times, scoring 8 points in a row, bringing a wave of counterattacks from the Rockets.

Billups hit a three-point shot from a distance, Chamberlain hit Yao Ming with his back and turned around and dunked successfully while causing his foul, Ibaka staged his dunk stunk, he got the response from the wing West from the middle ****, stepped into the free throw line and jumped up directly, and came to a super long-distance gliding dunk.

The release of the main core made the two sides fall into a state of offensive stalemate, but the Warriors still maintained the lead, they have top guard Billups to control the overall situation, which is too important, the Rockets rely on Yao Ming's offense and defense, and he led the team to launch a fast-play whirlwind, which greatly weakened Yao Ming's power at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.

Yao Ming then received a hook shot from Artest's pass and the Rockets fans stood up and applauded, and he scored 42 points after the goal, breaking his previous scoring record of 41 points, which he set at home to the Atlanta Hawks on February 23, 2004. The Rockets played three overtimes with the Hawks in that game, and the Rockets narrowly won 123-121. Yao Ming scored an NBA career scoring record of 41 points in this game, in addition to contributing 16 rebounds and seven assists for the Rockets.

Chamberlain covered Billups outside the three-point line to break through, the latter turned and passed, Chamberlain didn't have time to rush down the restricted area, so he simply jumped outside the three-point line, and with a crisp sound, the basketball fell into the Nets. Seeing this, Chamberlain raised his right hand and laughed, this was his second three-point shot of the game, and the first time in his career that he shot more than two three-pointers in a single game.

With a minute and a half left in the game, the Warriors still held a double-digit lead and they were pretty much the winner with a 115-102 lead. Yao Ming's back play in the penalty area caused Chamberlain to foul again, and the latter committed five fouls on his back, but it didn't matter, there was just over a minute left.

Yao Ming hit two free throws, and then West hit a backward jumper, and then Artest was blown a foul with an elbow in the attack, and left the court with six fouls, seeing this, Adelman shook his head and replaced the main lineup, replaced with a pure bench lineup, and the Warriors made the same switch, and the game was over.

The Warriors finally won 122-108 on the road, and the game ended, and the audience burst into long-lasting applause, Yao Ming and Chamberlain's inside battle opened the eyes of the fans, of course, they didn't know that the two had spare strength for each other, and if they really had to use all their energy to defend, then Yao Ming and Chamberlain didn't want to score more than 25 points.

Although they lost, the Rockets players were still happy, firstly, because they were used to losing, anyway, the core of the team was not there, so what if they lost? Their current players, except for Yao Ming, have more salaries than Maddie, and they are watching the show under the court with a boss of more than 20 million, can they blame them if they lose? The second is that they will have a holiday after this game, and the All-Star Weekend is coming, and the players can rest for a whole week.

Chamberlain and Yao Ming hugged, and the others hugged each other, but Maddie was like an outsider, he looked at the players gathered together to joke and joke, shook his head and walked into the passage to the locker room, Chamberlain just wanted to call him, Hill pulled him and said, "Let Tracy take this himself." ”

After the game, the players went back to their respective homes, and Jackson, Barnes and others joined Artest to get into Houston's largest strip bar 'Hot Dancer' for the first time.

Houston has the largest number of strip bars in the country, and the fourth-largest city in the country is known for two things: its space technology, which is known by the city's nickname - "SpaceCity", which is home to the Johnson Aerospace Center and the Mission Monitoring Center; Then there are strip bars, which are not as many as in the bustling and unbelievably rich New York or Las Vegas.

"Z, how about we go and have fun together?" West ran over to invite him, but as soon as he finished speaking, his face changed a little, because a girl came out of the bathroom in Chamberlain's room, and the little girl looked at him angrily, with murderous eyes in her big black eyes.

"Hey, baby, doll, why are you here?" West asked with a smile, he ran over and pinched the little girl's delicate cheek, the girl stubbornly dodged back, but West was stronger and faster than her, grabbing her shoulder first and then pinching her cheek.

The doll struggled like a small catfish, and finally struggled out, reaching out and pushing West out the door.

West leaned through the crack in the door and yelled at Chamberlain, "I'm going to bring her in a fucking away game, are you?" ”

Chamberlain rolled his eyes and said, "Do you still care about this?" We're going to Phoenix tomorrow, damn Li Qun and Shirley have already gone to Phoenix, what do you say about the doll, did I leave her at home? ”

West let out an 'oh', he thought for a moment and asked, "Is Shirley going to Phoenix to watch the game?" Ha, that's good, I'm going to win the Skill Challenge trophy and give it to them, what do you say? ”

Chamberlain shrugged and said: "That's your business, she didn't go to the game, of course she would watch the game, but before that she had a more important mission, this is a secret, I can't say." ”

The doll puffed out the door and tried to close it, but West got stuck with his foot, and the latter liked to tease her and Shirley, because his daughter was not around, and he pinned part of his feelings on these two little girls.

Westka's door won't close, and he looks at the doll with a hippie smile, only to have the latter snort coldly and raise his little foot to kick him in the knee. Although it was not heavy, because of the knee jump reflex, he stretched his feet forward, the doll gritted his teeth and wanted to push the door, West was startled and subconsciously retracted his legs, and then the door was closed.

"This violent girl." West muttered and left.

After closing the door and locking it again, the doll looked at Chamberlain angrily, her eyes did not blink, she just stared at Chamberlain.

"I know you want to ask when I'll get your dad out, right?" Chamberlain pinched his temples with a headache, and he said helplessly, "But you have to give me time, baby, understand?" I need time, damn it, I'm going to have to get someone from the embassy to prepare a set of identification for him to forge a fake one. ”

"How long?" The doll asked crisply.

Chamberlain calculated for a moment and said, "It will take at least half a month, it's complicated, doll, it's not a trivial matter." ”

The doll pouted and nodded, then walked unhappily to another room, and when she reached the door, she stopped, and walked back slowly.

Chamberlain let out a wail and asked, "Okay, if there's anything else you want to know you can keep asking, OK?" ”

The doll looked at Chamberlain hesitantly and whispered, "If I let you touch my buttocks, can the time be shortened?" ”

When Chamberlain heard this, he almost cried, and he cried: "Listen, doll, you are a little girl, and you are not an adult!" I've got a lot of women - shit, I mean I'm not horny, I didn't touch your ass but drugged you that day, and I have absolutely no such bad thoughts about you! ”

The doll sneered, left a sentence of 'nonsense' and walked into the room slowly, as if to leave time for Chamberlain to regret it.

Chamberlain lay helplessly on the bed, but the phone rang, and after he connected it, Sjet's voice rang: "BOSS, do you know a guy named Kenel Grants?" He's about forty years old, maybe older, and has just been released from prison, and he's asking you around the cliff house right now. ”
