Chapter 213 Crisis is always with my team!
"You are the general manager of Houston, do you want to buy some gifts for your teammates?"
Ron replied: "Buy what? Buy them some IQ and EQ? - They are quite lacking in this stuff."
...
After the game, Ron came to the most famous bar in Arizona, and the hospitable Phoenix reporter and several Chinese reporters accompanied him to enjoy the imperial treatment.
It goes without saying that he is sensual.Anyway, the victory is in hand, and the reporters are generous, happy to spend a lot of money everywhere.
In fact, when Ron was walking around the hotel where he was staying, the reporter of "Arizona Today" asked to interview him, so with the purpose of finding Qing Itachi and the miracle doctor Carter, he called other reporters who had made an appointment at the same time to the bar.
"How much is this beer?"
The waiter reported a number.
"How much is the discount?"
"Fold? Sorry, it's still $7."
Ron stood up abruptly.
"Are you kidding me? $7 a can of beer!?"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, then the boyfriend of Scarlett, the famous Hollywood actress with a salary of tens of millions of dollars, and the interim general manager of Houston, whose salary is nearly 300 million US dollars, left the bar, preferring to stand for the interview.
"Ro...Mr. Ron, if you want, we can pay for you. If you don't want to, I can ask you personally..." The reporter's embarrassed face twitched...
"I'm a bit thirsty, but I don't want them to take advantage of it. Just let them keep the fucking $7 beer," Ron said angrily, and then turned to the reporter who asked the question.
"...Um, I just said that the most stingy... guy you've ever met... is not Alexander, but Robert Savo (Sun)" The reporter stared straight at Ron, as if he was going to listen to Grandet talking about stinginess...
"Oh! Yes..."
It is not uncommon for Rockets fans to call their boss Alexander stingy, but the most recent classic of "doing big things and cherishing money" is the Suns boss Savo.
Not long after he entered the team in 2005, Stern was confused by his golden and heroic appearance, saying that he had a rivalry with the brothers Cuban and Maruf, and they were both the face of the team.
Unspoken meaning: "The alliance needs more money-losing bosses like this!"
This guy wasted Nash's two years in vain. Except for letting Colangelo go like a pig's head, he got Steve Kerr to take over, and witnessed the "best playoffs" Sun of the Sharks Westward Journey. He didn't pick up other hairs, and threw Marion and D'Antoni for nothing...
In the past two seasons, the Suns simply bounced back to the 2004-05 season mode. Young seedlings and some veterans were thrown to Nash, making him a 36-year-old man and had to be a nanny to support the old and the young.
"Hmmmmmmmm...but our boss doesn't bat an eyelid when he spends $70 on beer..." The reporter's response made Ron extremely painful...
"puff…"
"You are laughing fart... By the way, I will deduct all your consumption in the bar from your salary!"
The Taoist rolled his eyes and picked his nostrils: "Carter said that he treats guests, don't you know? Why don't you even spare the money for the drink, Master Luo? Does Scarlet know that you are so picky?"
Pooh!I'm going to spend my money on the edge of the knife...
"Well, I watched the game, and here are some personal suggestions for reference only..." He meditated with his legs crossed, looking like a fairy.
Damn, what do you know...
On the plane back to Houston in the early morning...
"...I feel that although these few games have been won, a lot of problems have been exposed..."
"Okay! Yes, yes, yes!"
The road was endless, Ron just nodded symbolically and said yes, but at the moment his mind was not on the court at all, but on the gossip magazine in his hand...
Suddenly his pupils dilated, and he took advantage of the opportunity to look at the players' cabins. Everyone was excited about going home...
Some people closed their eyes and rested their minds, some people smiled and received greetings from relatives and friends on the phone, and some people teased and played with each other. There was nothing wrong with these, but the man who once again became the "Houston hero" in this game, Mayo, leaned against the window coldly and gloomyly.
Crisis is always with my team!
He looked at the magazine in his hand, and then at Mayo, his eyes kept switching back and forth, his teeth were already chattering with anger...
"It's time to give him a long-term contract... Luo." Seeing that Ron was looking at Mayo, the team doctor Jones quietly approached and said to Ron.
Ron didn't say anything, but quickly covered up his emotions. Regarding the player's contract renewal plan, even if he was a brother, he didn't intend to say what was in his heart...
There is a wave of unrest and another wave, and there is already a quarrel here...
"Hey, Ron, did you hear what the old man said?" Qing Itachi rolled his eyes at the laughing team doctor Jones, and continued to stalk Ron: "Even if it's not the Rockets of Xiao Fan's era, even if Adelman is not very proficient in defense, but if we completely lose our defensive skills, the playoffs will not be far away!"
"That's because Yao Ming didn't come back. You know, without Yao Ming as the inside keeper, we had no choice but to adopt the 'shrink defense method', only defending the opponent with the ball, and the remaining 4 people try to shrink to around the 3-second zone." An assistant coach in charge of system offense and defense at the side was quite upset when he heard it, and continued angrily: "But that was before Chandler came. Now it is much better than before. We will try to change our defensive system, and you don't need to worry about it..."
Because the inside line is not dominant... so the crowd tactics are used to fill the inside hole.To put it bluntly, this is a self-mutilation defensive method. Since there is no way to take care of both inside and outside, we can only leave the head and tail, choose the territory of the basket closer to the forehead, and gamble on luck by emptying the three-point line.
Of course, as far as the current situation is concerned, luck is always on Houston's side, even if they are angrily scored more than 30 points by the little-known Channing Frye...even if they are almost killed by Nash's three-pointer...
"Is this really good, Chandler? Have you guys forgotten Stoudemire's lackluster performance in the interior during the last period of the day? Don't forget, this still hasn't changed what happened to the defensive system..."
"This…"
"Hey, this...er, sir." It was the turn of Adelman's grandpa Shenhua to appear on the stage: "What you said is not unreasonable, but judging from the current situation, before Yao Ming has not returned, how do you think we should arrange the lineup to be both offensive and defensive?"
What a Tai Chi move, Ron secretly smiled inwardly, and glanced aside, the face of the aggressive Taoist at the beginning turned green: "Um... I'm just speaking my mind as a fan... True experience tells us that teams with 'no defense' can't make it far in the playoffs!"
"Aha... It seems that our Mr. Magic Stick has predicted our future in advance..." Adelman shrugged nonchalantly at everyone, and the others laughed mockingly...
"What are you laughing at! Do you think you can be complacent by winning a lot of games with 'aggression' and 'luck' in the regular season?" Qing Itachi was angry: "As far as I am a veteran fan for many years, our lineup always wins, mainly because it happens to catch up with the league's wave of advocating offense and pleasing style of play... If it was in the 8s and 90s, we would have been beaten out of shit... If you don't believe me, just watch it. "
"Hey! Where did the bull-nosed Taoist priest always destroy his prestige?"
"Throw out this bullshit bastard!"
"Pacers, isn't the Jazz a defensive team? They lost to us in the same way!"
"Okay, stop making trouble!" Ron interrupted everyone's argument helplessly, and complained: "It's not that we lost, we will fight if we win, and we will fight if we lose... Do you think there are not enough things? God, let's leave all the problems to reality!"
Seeing everyone gradually calm down, he quietly closed his eyes and regained his composure...
It’s just that the Taoist still muttered in a persistent voice: “Bad teams like the Pacers and Jazz, in our competitive state and when our morale is at its peak, are just narrow victories… Doesn’t this prove it even more?”
Yes, how simple it was at that time, maybe the spotlight and focus are the biggest killers of the players.
"What's wrong with Ron? This is not his style at all!" Under the farce, only the team doctor Jones found all kinds of bad signs: "According to common sense, he should be talking with others and formulating team strategies!"
"I don't know... maybe his heart has already flown back to that foreign girl of his..." Qing Itachi said sarcastically with some complaints.
In fact, the contradiction of the problem lies in the crucial point of "Yao Ming's comeback".The problem is that no one knows what kind of chemical reaction Yao Ming can bring to the Rockets when he comes back, and the continuous victories now completely cover up all the inconspicuous problems...
Why didn't Ron know these things?It's just that at this moment, his mind is not on this critical moment at all...
Because everyone knows that the last week after the All-Star Game represents the deadline for the player trading market...
Mayo…
He clenched the magazine tightly and his whole body almost twitched...
On February 2, the US gossip media "TMZ" reported that well-known singer and socialite Natalie Taylor described in detail the details of her failed relationship with an NBA star in an interview recently, and said that it was the star currently playing for the Houston Rockets who took away her first time.
Taylor revealed the story while participating in a show called "The Breakfast Club" on a music station in New York.
The 23-year-old Taylor also said that she has never had a second man other than this man, but at the same time she added: "If that guy doesn't give me a satisfactory explanation, I will have a way to send him to court..."
From the perspective of outsiders, this may just be a shameless hype. It's not surprising, but only Ron knows it in his heart, especially after seeing Mayo's expression, he is even more convinced!
That Houston Rockets star can't possibly be Dayao!
Who else but Mayo?
How long has it been... It's not considered a big name, but there are always troubles outside the court.
It's just an expression, a look, Qing Itachi sighed inexplicably when he saw it, and murmured to himself: "It's a blessing, not a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided...the sky will change!"
...
As soon as he got off the plane, in the long queue of pick-ups, Ron noticed that there were two hot girls leaving with Mayo in full view...
While flipping through the "TZM" magazine, while stroking his beard, this time he finally knew why Ron suddenly lost his mind: "The poor man only knows that the body can be cured, but the heart disease is something that ghosts and gods can't help..."
"Well, I know..." Ron sighed helplessly as he looked at Mayo, who was embracing left and right towards his luxury car...
"Hi, I didn't expect me to pick you up!" Dameng Olajuwon greeted Ron and the others enthusiastically from a long distance away. "Good news, Yao Ming can participate in the pre-match warm-up training!"
silence…
"What, what are you thinking? Hey, the two of you went to a nightclub in Phoenix and got dumped by a girl?"
still silent...
"I want to trade Mayo...before the trade deadline..." Ron said suddenly.
"Who? Are you crazy?" The pupils of the two people next to him were filled with horror...
