Chapter 335 About the Mandate of Heaven!
April 2011, 4...April Fool's Day...
Driving to the Toyota Center...
beep...
"Don't tell me the score, Bright!"
"...Ron is me..."
"Jessica?"
"Hmm..." The opposite person felt a little ashamed to Foru: "You...is it convenient for you to answer the phone now?"
"Yes! What's the matter?"
"I didn't expect you to actually answer the phone...I wanted to leave a message...well...anyway, I just wanted to say...you did a great job, Ron, I'm really proud of you, many people here are proud of you, you know, Hollywood stars don't easily show their support...but you are an exception..."
"Thank you, Jessica...thank you!"
"…Good luck."
He's almost smug...
"Wait, Jack Nicholson is right here with me, he wants to tell you something..."
"Hello! Hey! Jack... I heard you were very angry yesterday (the Lakers failed to stop the Rockets' 33-game winning streak)"
"Oh! come! Come on, man... where are you now? Why didn't I hear the cheers?"
"No...I'm going to the Gvikland Valley Vipers, I'm going to start preparing for the playoffs...see if there's a buddy worth taking..."
"...(I have been helpless) I beg you to turn around...Brother, this is a once-in-a-century moment to witness history! Don't you want to say something under the spotlight? This will make you famous forever..."
"Oh, no, no...you know, I never go to the game now..."
"...You won't bring bad luck, this is too paranoid, and it will make you lose the ability to judge what? Please, the trade deadline has passed..."
"...Okay, here I am, see you next time! Buddy!"
He smiled and hung up the phone...
"Witnessing history?" He said in self-deprecating words, and then turned on the radio...
...
"If you're just joining us now, you're missing out on a lot of the good stuff! Look, McGrady's slamming the ball! It hits the ball again, watch him smugly put his index finger in his mouth like he doesn't like the cheers…"
"...There is no suspense, and there is no possibility of suspense again. The Washingtonians, the vice president of the league, are completely prepared to act as spectators witnessing history...They let Houston, who returned back to back, score 38 points in the first quarter..."
There was a snicker in the comments...
"It must have shocked anyone who heard it, 66:40, at the end of halftime, Houston led by 26 points..."
"Have you seen Yao Ming? He is well-dressed today, and from time to time he gives out his memorable smile..."
"Adelman is not much better. After all, this is his glory. Although he pretends to be calm, when he turns his back to the camera, you can still see a little bit of his excitement..."
"34 consecutive victories! It seems that the sky is helping the Rockets..."
...
What am I thinking?
"Shit!" Ron cursed with a smile, turned around sharply, and drove towards the Toyota Center...
Sunny all the way...
Scenes of the past along the way came to his mind...
There are surprises and joy...
There is disappointment, there is pain...
He just shook his head, let the past go with the wind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up...
...
The long-lost Toyota Center...
The long-lost red wave...
The long-lost "Let's-go-Rocket..."
Ron, who finally appeared on the scene again, was filled with emotion...
The staff in front of the player tunnel smiled and nodded towards him, and the eyes full of reverence also made him feel full of tenderness...
Although he has been very low-key, he was quickly captured by the live director...
Cheers... shouts...
Everyone stood up and applauded him almost spontaneously, and the players on the field also smiled at the big screen...
"Let's welcome...our last 'leader' who is 'late'! From China, Luo~~~~~~en!"
The high-decibel cheers jumped up, his whole body twitched, and he waved his hands frequently in excitement, but all the grievances and resentments in his heart seemed to disappear completely at this moment...
Yes, Everthing-is-all-right…
Everything is great, only at this moment, he suddenly feels like a winner in life...
...
Behind the bench, Bright and Olajuwon waved to him, he nodded politely, then hugged his chest, intending to enjoy this hard-won glory...
...
"...the second half begins."
The Houstonians, who were visibly getting excited, flocked towards Washington's defense zone like vicious dogs...
This is Sloan's forte, using the audience to fight aggressively, causing opponents to make mistakes, and further expanding their leading advantage...
Teodosic and George rushed towards Wall with the ball. The No. 10 pick was out of shape in the first half of the day. He only made one of the first [-] shots. When the fierce Rockets player rushed towards his face, he instinctively shrank and the ball was snatched by George...
"GO, GO, GO!"
While waving happily to his teammates, George rushed to shoot a three-pointer against Webster, who was returning to visit and attempted to steal the ball!
That is**!
"Three!!!"
In the ecstatic cheers of the fans and the expression of confidence, they greeted the basket...
"Boom..."
Blacksmithing...
"...AAH~~~"
Under the sound of regret at the scene, George and Teodosic, who was already under the basket, ran towards the landing point...
It's just that the ball hit the backboard and flew directly beyond the three-point line. The Serb turned his head to the board and hit George, who had no time to brake...
The ball was unbiased, and then flew over O'Neal's head. Cousins greeted him a few times behind him, but the ball flew directly into the hands of Kevin Seraphim...
It was a fumble!
"...Why are you still standing there! Back on defense!" McGrady shouted...
Five against one!
JaVale McGee rushed out of the crowd and dunked!
Even the players on the scene were all stunned, but they quickly regained their composure...
"...mine." George smiled and gave the Serb a hand...
...
What was this playing just now?
Teodosic's basket was empty, and George made a strong three-pointer against them?
Ron was obviously dissatisfied, but he quickly convinced himself...
Yes, it's just a ball...
...
Keep chasing and grabbing the ball excitedly...
Only this time the nimble Wall breaks through the encirclement...
It's just that Cousins, who was on the edge of the penalty area, took advantage of the opportunity and rushed over ruthlessly and unreasonably, but he missed the ball and knocked Wall out of the edgeline for a long time...
"...Malicious foul?"
Cousins began to run wildly in his own position again, and he was quickly replaced by Hawes, not because he was worried about his recklessness, 4 fouls...
...
"...NO. 2, John Wall..."
"...John Wall..."
"John Wall..."
When the DJ on the scene frequently uttered Wall's name, Ron looked at the lead of nearly 20 points, and for some reason had an ominous premonition...
"...Webster three-pointer? The ball goes out of the frame...Rebound!"
Muscle clashing...
McGee made a flying dunk directly after the offensive rebound...
All the players of the Wizards retreated to their own positions in an orderly manner. They were watching... It seemed that there was a belief supporting them to persevere to the end...
...
Another mistake!O'Neal and Teodosic pick-and-roll, neither of them communicated well in advance, and they hit full arms...
Wizards new aid Rashad Lewis quickly took the ball and made a fast break, seeing that there was no one inside, he made a direct three-pointer!
Hit again!
...
Yi Jianlian came off the bench... In front of Yao Ming's sight, he received a pass from Wall and shot directly...
Return!
...
Ron kept looking at the time and the scoreboard, 79:54…
83: 74…
88: 81…
The players weren't as quick as they were in the first half or even before...
In the end, they couldn't even see the step-by-step positional warfare and the quick and reasonable distribution of passes...
Everyone started to feel anxious, and the repeated missed shots caused by anxiety exacerbated the exhaustion caused by back-to-back...
"...Paul George 3! ...still misses!"
"What happened to him today? In the past, at the most critical moment, he could always score some key goals..."
"...Following three-pointer! From Iverson!"
Ron seemed to hear a roar of thunder outside...
This is the prelude to the storm...
After reverse thinking, he closed his eyes, looked up to the sky and sighed deeply...
Under the anxious eyes of Brett and others, Ron turned and left...
Is this my destiny?
...
"Miss! Cousins' rebound! The referee's whistle! No way! Rebounding foul? Looking at it in slow motion, it's an amateur pushing foul! In the 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter, he has committed 5 fouls! Hawes is already waiting near the center line..."
"...I admit that I saw the Utah Jazz's suffocating full-court lead defense in Houston's defensive system before... But today, I only saw a group of hyperactive mad dogs, who didn't even care about the defense line, rushing to grab..."
"Wait... what is Cousins doing?"
"What is he doing? He's still arguing with the referee..."
"Two T's in a row! Cousins paid for his recklessness!"
"...Paul George is pulling him to the sidelines, but he has to be careful, because he has 5 fouls..."
"Cousins slammed the towel on the ground! He muttered words! This is not the quality that a team with 33 consecutive victories should have!"
"Where's Adelman?"
"This is the first time I've seen Adelman be at a loss since the Rockets' 33-game winning streak... He seems to be more anxious than anyone else..."
"Did the Grudge of the Lakers come to help Washington in 71?"
"...God, we were leading by nearly 30 points in the first half of the third quarter...and now we're behind!"
Kenny: "What happened to Houston? They're starting to mess up..."
Barkley: "Houston is so awesome! No luck in the game...Under the trend of impatience and eagerness to break the record, everyone has forgotten how they won the game before...It's a mob...If they can lose, then they are too disappointing...What happened to the Wizards? You know this is the NBA!"
"Derrick Bledsoe played again! He replaced George who had a poor performance in this game...This may be the last card Adelman played..."
"...Bledsoe cuts inside! He's looking! Nobody pulling, running! He misses the dribble! Houston's 15th turnover of the second half!"
Fight back!Wall threw off two defenders, he was too fast!He chose to split the ball!
Keeping up with Andre Bratcher made a three-pointer!
The Toyota Center screamed, and the ball hit the ground again!
If the loss of a nearly [-]-point lead hasn't alerted the Rockets, what about [-] points behind now?
It's like a 34-game winning streak that was put in the bag and was taken back by someone...
