Chapter 231 Strong Enemy Attacks!Chauncey!Billups!
Only with firm belief, strong will, and full of desire for victory can it be possible to reach the top as a commoner.
The key is whether the player's heart is firm enough...
Tenacity, unity, discipline... When these excellent qualities are fully displayed in the spirit of this team, everyone in Aerospace City is self-evidently secretly happy...
perhaps…
Maybe the great Houston dynasty revival -- maybe not even for a season!
"Impossible!" When asked if he thought the playoffs were at hand, Ron, who always talked about winning the championship, replied: "Of course our goal will not change, but it is just a goal that makes people work hard... You must know that this is the first game... The road to success cannot be so smooth..."
...
"Defence!"
The roaring and booing one after another on the pampas made Houstonians feel Denver's passion for basketball all the time...
Every goal of the away team will make the fans of the home team sigh and complain again and again. Those vicious slandering voices, even the old George Karl on the scene, had to plug their ears quickly... But it will not be long before these people, they are like early amnesiacs, selectively forgetting all the unhappy past events, and then sharpen their swords.
The Houston Rockets, who had just ushered in a new generation at home, blew away the Miami Heat in a bloodbath with the attitude of the main force, embarrassing Riley...
Maybe people will obviously throw an olive branch to Houston, which is full of morale under the influence of stereotyped thinking. However, when Ron attended the press conference after the game, facing the media reporters who looked at him with admiration, he expressed worry that maybe everyone’s boastful thumbs up too fast, because tomorrow, the unlucky ones will usher in another back-to-back, and this time it is the Denver Nuggets, the lord of the Pampas Plateau who is already known as the "Northwest King"...
Once the first Denver person to die under the knife of the rising Rockets, this time he finally has an excuse for revenge...
I used to disdain to fight with you, but this time, as a gimmick for the [-]-game winning streak at home, I have already confirmed that I will fight with you...
What's more, what's different from last time is that the proud Denver people who are used to winning have already quietly sat on the sidelines, and they are rising strongly like an upstart in the new era of heroes in the West...
And there was only one change that caused this stark contrast—the guy who was always full of confidence and held his head up like the commander-in-chief of the backcourt...
Chauncey Billups…
Billups' hometown team hasn't won a playoff round since 1994 -- and in that sense, they're probably worse than the Warriors and Clippers.Melon, I am afraid that his career will not be able to get rid of the weak "ID card" at the critical moment, and Iverson, who arrived about two years ago, failed to tell the Denver people the answer.
So, Billups, who has returned with honor, will be the savior of this team?
In Ron's view, sending away AI means that the Nuggets can not only get rid of the salary burden, but also declare the bankruptcy of the "double guns" offensive mode in the past two years.The transaction happened precisely after the team lost to the Lakers who swept them last season, which seems to be a metaphor: this team will change from offense to defense, from viewing to rationality.
The arrival of Billups, first of all, is a signal of emphasis on defense.This is also in line with George Karl's slogan of "We-need-D" (We need to defend) after the playoffs last season.In essence, Karl is not an offensive paranoid like Nelson and D'Antoni. His success in the Sonics and the quick turnaround of the Nuggets in the 2004-2005 season all relied heavily on defense.
Defensive... Good thing we're getting defensive too... Ron thought to himself.
As a result, the Rockets and the Nuggets aggressively attacked each other on the surface, but they were really fighting on the defensive end behind the scenes...
Obviously, the result of being dragged into the quagmire of positional warfare, except for the rude blue-collar insiders on both sides, it should be the SHOW-TIME played by superstars.
Billups’ reputation as Mr. Smooth and his reputation with the Pistons made him quickly become the spiritual leader of the Nuggets in his hometown team Denver. Of course, Anthony doesn’t have to worry about his status as a data leader, because this time the newcomer will not only not compete for the right to shoot, but will also make Anthony’s shots more comfortable.
Although Iverson averaged more than 7 assists per game, slightly more than Billups.He himself is a superstar who does his part, but the latter wins in his control of rhythm and ultra-low turnover rate.In the half-court attack system that the Nuggets are about to implement, Billups is very familiar with it, if not at ease.
Anthony's low-post singles ability will have more room to play.And J. R.Smith, with the accuracy and speed of his jumper, will remind Billups often of Detroit's masked backcourt partner.
Kenyon Martin once again ushered in an All-Star point guard after Kidd. He has been "sleeping" for a long time, and a turning point may be just around the corner.
As a result, the Nuggets, who have one less superstar than before, are more effective than before because of the harmonious lineup.
But now there is only one super RMB player left, but they themselves feel that swiping dungeons is such a simple and enjoyable thing in the world, because there is a new one who can shout wheat in YY, swiping screens all over the world, suddenly scolding you because of your inappropriate position, and commanding professional players who have a big picture-if ACE Anthony’s trump card is a super-powerful one-shot fatal lore, then Billups’ trump card is the aura of all-powerful boost...
This is not to say that it is a dungeon, it is enough to go straight from a solo kill to a rampant super god...
As for Billups' other nickname, Mr. Big Shot (Mr. BigShot), and the last-minute calmness, stability and self-confidence contained in the nickname, for this team that has only won one playoff victory in two years, the importance is self-evident.
So whenever the Houston Rockets seemed to be chasing the entire game, they were finally about to catch up, but at the last minute, there was always an annoying guy who used a crucial three-pointer, or a difficult three-pointer, to open the score again...
It must be admitted that Billups is a bottle of high-quality glue and a good patch, which can quickly make up for the team's shortcomings and make the team more stable, tough and solid.
Ever since, Billups led a group of bad-tempered gentlemen to gradually take the initiative on the court, and intercepted the Houston Rockets, who had just found a little strong team feeling, were in the limelight, and were high-spirited, from midair, and slammed them...
Two more!
