Chapter 319 The death knell of the space city strikes...
The camera once again swept to the home team locker room before the game...
almost breathless...
Yes, you read that right...
Even Shaq, who was talking nonsense before the game, just stared blankly at the ceiling, his eyes full of anxiety...
"The season...begins..."
"Yeah! The season has started..."
"Are we going to play soon?"
"That's right! We're about to make an appearance..."
McGrady repeatedly tightened the protective gear on his knees, and Iverson squeezed his wrists silently like a dead body...
The other rookies and veterans were even more silent - no one wanted to mess up their debut, even Cousins pouted, flicking the ball on his fingertips back and forth...
Only JR-Smith, with an indifferent look on his face, was wearing his big headset and listening to nightclub music, his body kept swaying back and forth...
"Dong Dong~"
Ron led the chubby brother Jiujiu-Bright and Olajuwon for a stroll in the courtyard. He quickly knocked on the window of the coaching staff near the locker room, and after receiving complaints from many members who were in a meeting, he was ready to go in...
"Excuse me, Mr. Ron..."
It's Teodosic...
"Hi! Milos..." He pretended to be busy, walked to his side with his hips crossed and a smile.
"...I didn't bother you!"
"Not at all, what's the matter?"
He shrugged: "I want to thank you for the opportunity...for being 'last in'...I know what that means...I'm flattered..."
"We are very happy to have you join us. You play an indispensable role for all of us... Remember, don't defend for 3 seconds..." He joked and turned around.
"I'm very grateful...No one has ever given me such an opportunity...Even in Europe...Even in my high school..." His face was obviously pale, and it is not difficult to see how much pressure is on Milos Teodosic, who appeared as the ace of the game...
"From...never?" How could this kind of mood swing escape Ron's eyes...
"Only you, sir..."
The ominous sign at this time made Ron unable to turn back. He looked at his watch, 5 minutes before the scene...
"WELL, today is a big day, I promise you will never forget it..." Ron said bravely, but his palms were already covered with sweat...
He patted Teodosic on the shoulder and walked to the coaching conference room, and the Serb had already started to speak incoherently...
"Thank you so much sir, I just wanted to tell you that my prayers are with all of you..."
Ron was obviously taken aback, and gave a wry smile: "No problem!"

...
The camera cuts to the scene...
The famous Rockets star Trexler who served as a commentary consultant said: "Don't go away, today is the opening day!"
Under the spotlight on the scene, Ron was very busy. He shook hands with all the celebrities present one by one, and then handed over the fundraising of the charity foundation to the representatives of children in need. Finally, he stood with Alexander and others and took a family photo...
After a lap, sweating profusely, he walked to the position of the little fat brother near the players' tunnel, and whispered in his ear...
"I'm leaving, report to me anytime..."
"What? Why? Your position (referring to the position behind the Rockets' bench that remained unchanged last season) is ready!"
Looking back, Ron was a little embarrassed to say: "I have decided not to watch the game anymore..." (Remember? Because of the emotional entanglement with the players, in order to make all the players the big winners in their lives, he sacrificed the interests of the team. Of course, the players all got big contracts, but the team lineup last season was fragmented... This made Ron complain for a long time...)
Watching the latter give him a thumbs up and leave in a hurry, the little fat brother felt helpless...
"Under the sun, there really is such a strange manager..."
...
The Toyota Center was brightly lit, and amid the cheers of tens of thousands of spectators, the Houston Rockets finally started the new season...
"...OK, let's welcome NO.0 from Kentucky, DeMarcus, Cousins." Starting PF…
His rebelliousness turned into panic and anxiety, he ran over and bumped into the substitute player who came on the field first, he wanted to say sorry, but what he blurted out was: "Go away, bastard, don't you have eyes?"
...
Ron walked towards the empty training room, hesitating to turn on the light...
...
"No. 31, from Duke University, Sean~~~~~ Battier..." The first SF...
The return of the "President" has been applauded by thousands of Rockets fans, but it is inevitable that he has entered the end of his playing career...
Even though the smile is still bright...
...
Ron turned on the broadcast TV, and smiled tactfully at Chuck Barkley, who said "I don't think so, Houston"...
...
"NO. 7, from Condino University, JR~~~~Smith!" The first SG...
This is almost the only normal person in the entire rocket team. His arms are waving and his face is majestic, even though there are many boos mixed in with the cheers...
...
Ron stepped onto the treadmill, followed the operation of the treadmill and the sound broadcast on the TV, and started his decompression exercise...
...
"NO. 32, four-time championship member, three-time finals MVP, Shaquille~~~~~Ao~~~Neill!" (Cheers from the audience~) The first starter C.
The fish don't stop swimming, the final destination-Houston on the southwestern coast of the United States... Just like a poisonous snake on ESPN pointed out sharply-he is not here to play, he is here for vacation...
...
With the cheers coming from the TV, Ron shook his head with a smile, and then increased the frequency of the treadmill...
...
"NO. 10, from CSKA Moscow, Serbian, Milos~~~ Teodosic!" Starting PG…
"Who?" Barkley asked suspiciously. "I don't know this guy... he... he enjoys the Rockets' ace treatment?"
The Serbs trotted into the arena, cheers, worship, stunned, and of course worry...
Scene: "The last 2010 minutes until the start of the 2011-2 season for the Houston Rockets, the players stand in the middle of the field, line up, we come back immediately after the national anthem, and the jump ball is about to begin..."
...
Little chubby Brett, who was already sitting in his office, suddenly frowned while watching the live broadcast on the TV...
Message - "Why Shane Battier, JR Smith, and not McGrady, Paul George?"
...
"Drip..."
Ron, who was sweating profusely on the treadmill, raised his phone and looked at it, but there was no sign...
...
Add weights...
Going from a brisk workout to a heavy one means escalating hassle and worry…
Voices on the radio made him crank up the frequency...
"...This is the 3rd time Milos Teodosic has defended 3 seconds...He thought he was playing FLFA...Look at Smith, trailing by 8 points in the opening game, still having time to chat with his old teammate Anthony at the free throw arc..."
"Look at Cousins again, he got 2 fouls in 3 minutes... Even so, he is better than the old guy behind him, our 'Superman' Shaq, who is already holding his knees, panting... You know the game has only lasted 5 minutes..."
He turned off the TV, but he couldn't turn off the pounding heart in his heart...
...
what can I do?I only have $4000 million... How about building an underdog? How about building a dynasty?I might as well die...
...
"McGrady...Paul George...McGrady...Paul George..." Little Fatty watched Adelman stand up, and kept muttering in his heart...
And when Iverson and Jermaine Taylor replaced Cousins and Battier, he nearly smashed the screen...
...
"Drip..."
Ron turned on the phone again, and started wandering around the training room with a ferocious expression on his face...
...
Tracy McGrady replaced Jermaine Taylor, who played poorly in this game...
The miracle happened in the second half...
When the Serbian Teodosic finally adapted to the rhythm of the NBA game, he made a frontcourt steal and rushed to the enemy line. It took almost 24 seconds for four panting old men to appear in the frontcourt...
Adelman spread his hands in depression, then held his head, and there was a resounding sound of defection at the Toyota Center...
"What are they doing? Old men's basketball team? When the Serbs are riding the dust, the people behind are 'walking in the galaxy'... Oh! My God..." Even TNT's famous talker Kenny Smith began to feel a little downcast...
...
"It's too bad! Refund!"
"Fuck! Houston 'Starwalker' team!"
"Go to hell! Ron, look at what idiots you recalled... O'Neal, Iverson, McGrady, Battier, these people are not as fast as my grandma!"
...
The second half entered the garbage time early, and the little melon Anthony himself who was sitting on the bench felt incredible...
"Are we really too strong?" He smiled and pushed Nene, who scored 23 points and 18 rebounds in the Rockets' interior, "Or are you too violent?"
...
"Disappointed Rockets, ushered in a disappointing ending...But they don't have to worry too much...Because Miami also lost...Even so, they have to undergo major surgery on the lineup...All turnovers...All inattentiveness...They seem to lose their souls, sleepwalking on the court..."
"Maybe they are suitable for the preseason without physical confrontation, oh, boy... O'Neill was blocked in the whole game... Known as the big shark, he was beaten into a snot fish by the Brazilian Nene..."
In the end, the Rockets lost to the Denver Nuggets by a score of 88 to 110...
Although JR-Smith scored 32 points against his old club, it was based on his 30+ shots...
Only Teodosic did not disgrace his mission and handed in a normal answer sheet, 11 points and 7 assists (all from Smith's wave shots) and 5 rebounds (no way, almost no one rebounded), and then left 12 turnovers (including 5 defensive 3 seconds for example).
Of note -- Paul George, DNP…
Eric Bledsoe, DNP…
DeMarcus Cousins didn't play after 3 fouls, leaving 4 points and 3 rebounds, becoming the worst lottery rookie in the first game...
After the game, Houston plummeted from the power standings…
The first three pages of news can hardly find their LOGO...
The Chinese only pay attention to Yao Ming, but the latter has hurried back to Penglai...
He only left one thought-provoking sentence...
"I think, I have to come back as soon as possible...or..." He said with a pale face, "or just announce his retirement..."
This is almost the only normal person in the entire rocket team. His arms are waving and his face is majestic, even though there are many boos mixed in with the cheers...
