Chapter 173 Confronting the Opener

At night, Xia Tian rushed into the dressing room of the Toyota Center. Because of the traffic jam on the road, Xia Tian was late for today's game, but fortunately, the game hadn't started yet.

Opened the door of the locker room, Xia Tian was surrounded again as soon as he entered, a group of teammates stared at Xia Tian like a wolf, making Xia Tian a little uncomfortable.

"What's the matter with you?" Xia Tian asked.

"What's the matter with us? Brother, how many things are you hiding from us! You can't imagine my expression when I saw your racing car!" Harden said with an exaggerated expression.

"Is it that exaggerated?" Xia Tian looked at Harden speechlessly.

But before Harden could speak, Lowry answered first, "Of course! That's F1 with professional drivers and the king of the track! How did you win!" Lowry began to play tricks on Xia Tian.

As if wanting to see the difference between Xia Tian's body structure and theirs, why is this basketball awesome and racing car awesome!Brutely used a sports car to get all the F1.

"Okay, okay, don't touch it, don't stop even if it's almost a match." Xia Tian helplessly spread his hands.

"Ahem, what are you doing? Everyone is so excited, don't you know the game is about to start? And this game Huang Mamba also returned to the team. Although I don't know if the injury is completely gone, but remember that he is Huang Man Ba, don't take it lightly." After a while, Adelman came in and stopped everyone.

"Yellow Mamba? Roy?" Xia Tian asked with a frown.

It is not easy to know people who can be called Mamba. For example, Kobe, everyone knows how he got the name Black Mamba, and Roy is the same. If it is not for the injury, maybe Roy is also a celebrity. Candidates for the church.

Roy was the first-round pick in 06. He was selected by the Timberwolves at the beginning, but before he played a game in the Timberwolves, Roy was traded to the Blazers. From then on, he began his tragic and glorious journey.

As a yellow mamba, Roy started his high-profile performance at the beginning of his career. Among them, his average of 16.8 points per game surpassed most of the rookies in 06, but this was not the peak. on ascension.

This was also the case in the following years, but it is a pity that the injury destroyed Roy. At the age of 27, he had to retire because of a serious knee injury. 27 years old!A player was at his peak age, and Roy retired as a result.

This has to be said to be a pity, so many people also say that the Opener is the veterinary team, because in addition to Roy, Oden, who was known as the combination of Big Dream and Shark, was also injured in the Opener.

Roy, Oden, the two combinations that can dominate the league had to retire early due to injuries. Although Roy and Oden are still in the league now, as a reborn summer, he understands that these two are not close to retirement. Far.

Although Roy is seriously injured now, he is also a difficult opponent for Xia Tian. Why do you say that, because he is Roy!It's Huang Mamba, a man whose desire to win is no less than Kobe's.

"Yes, Roy has confirmed that this game will return. Although it is the first game back from injury, you must not underestimate him. You know, especially you Harden. Your defense really needs to be practiced. Don't just Thinking about stealing, get your position locked, you know!" Adelman said and looked at Harden.

Although Harden's defense is good, it has to be said that Harden loves steals too much, but this steal is accompanied by risks. One mistake is to let the opponent shoot, break through, and score points steadily.

"Hey, I know the coach, I won't take the risk of stealing in this game." Harden scratched his head and said.

"Well, then let's get ready to play. As the host, you all give me some energy and send all these Portlanders back to my hometown!" Adelman roared loudly.

"Kick them!" All the players responded in unison.

"Welcome everyone to watch the game. Today's game is between the Rockets and the Blazers. The Rockets are now ranked No. 7 in the West, and the Blazers are ranked No. [-] in the West. With Roy's comeback, today's game is a battle between dragons and tigers. "Zhang Weiping explained.

Then Li Ke said, "Director Zhang, this game is said to be a battle between dragons and tigers, but we also know that Roy has just come back. This is his first game back. He may face Harden. Do you think Harden Who will be better against Roy?"

"This." Zhang Weiping frowned and began to explain, "The matchup between the two of them is hard to say who will be better. Just like what you said just now, Roy is the first game of his comeback today. Can he succeed? We can't tell if we can find the feeling we had before."

"The second is Harden. Although Harden is only a second-year player this year, we can see from his performance that his current experience is not weaker than those players who have played for several years or more than ten years. It is said that Harden is very smart, although his body is not top-notch, but his golf quotient is not weaker than Paul and other players." Zhang Weiping slowly expressed his opinion.

"Does that card guide you mean that this game is also uncertain?"

"Yes, I'm not sure, but the competition will start soon, maybe there will be the answer we want in the competition." Zhang Weiping replied with a smile.

The game started, today's Toyota Center is still the same as usual, the front row is very sloppy, but as the young head of the team, Xia Tian knows that although the seats are not full, the money for the seats has been sold.

Because Houston is an industrial city, there are many high-achieving students. These high-achieving students do not mean that they have time to watch football every day, so many people bought season tickets or did not come after buying tickets. This is also a kind of support for the Rockets. Bar.

At the beginning of the game, facing the Blazers, the Rockets still moved out of their own twin-tower lineup. Hassan is now playing better and better, and his starting position is getting more and more stable.

After all, many teams also wanted to move out of the twin tower lineup. Unfortunately, the twin tower lineup was abandoned because it moved too slowly, but the Rockets' twin towers are different.

Not to mention how fast Yao Ming lost weight, but Hassan's moving speed is not weaker than those power forwards, even faster than many power forwards!

This is why Adelman likes to use Hassan. Anyway, there are three guns on the outside, and Yao Ming also has mid-range ability, so even if Hassan doesn't have mid-range and singles ability, it doesn't matter.

The lineup of the Blazers is not as luxurious as the Rockets. During the period when Oden was scrapped, the Blazers have been using Marcus Camby to replace Oden.

The rest are point guard Matthews, point guard Roy, small forward Batum, and power forward Aldridge.

With a jump ball in midfield, Hassan replaced Yao Ming and became the team's center forward, while Yao Ming took the position of power forward. The basketball took a steady shot of his own backcourt.
