Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 224

In a luxury clubhouse in the suburbs of Houston, Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta was frowning, and he was absolutely in a bad mood at the moment.

From the perspective of team operation and management, he absolutely does not want to dismiss Morey, because Morey does have good professional ability.

However, from the perspective of whether the team can bring appreciation or shrinkage to his assets, he must fire Morey.

Who let that idiot choose to fight hard with a bayonet?
That seemed idiotic to Tillman Fertitta.

Everyone knows how important the Chinese market is to the Houston Rockets, but all these good conditions were defeated by Morey.

From the start of the season to the present, the team's attendance has been declining, and it is clear that the online attention is also not strong in this regard.

Especially the game broadcast from China. Before this incident happened, the Houston Rockets were the most broadcast team in the Chinese market.

This is just one aspect.

On the other hand, many sponsors from China have successively suspended their business cooperation with the team.

Tillman Fertitta understands that there is of course the reason why the bayonet is so successful in the Dallas Lone Ranger, but it is undeniable that this is also caused by Morey's idiot. All this is very disappointing as a result of.

So, he had to fire Morey.

But what worries him now is, is it too late?

After he fired Morey, whether this bad trend can be reversed, Tillman Fertitta has no self-confidence, he thinks all this is really a pity.

However, at this time of frowning, he thought of someone who might be able to help him. Later, Tillman Fertitta made a call to BJ in China.

…………

Houston Rockets Toyota Center, this season's attendance rate can only be described as dismal arena tonight's attendance rate is still very good.

But many people also understand in their hearts that many fans who came to the scene today are not actually here to cheer for the Houston Rockets, they are actually here to cheer for the Bayonet, who made them all Chinese.

After the appearance ceremony, the much-anticipated game officially began.

DeAndre Jordan helped the Lone Ranger get the ball first to attack in the jump ball.

Basketball came to Luka Doncic's hands as a matter of course. To be honest, from Jiang Hao's point of view, Luka Doncic will face a strong challenge in this game tonight.

Because the player facing him is Chris Paul, although Jiang Hao hates Chris Paul, but sometimes, he has to admit that there is still something about Chris Paul.

When the immature Luka Doncic faced Chris Paul, who has been in the league for many years and also likes to use small moves in the game, Jiang Hao really sweated for Luka Doncic.

Fortunately, Luka Doncic has a composure that other rookies of the same class don't have, which makes his life a little easier when facing experienced players like Chris Paul.

Harris Barnes' mid-range shot helped the Lone Ranger get 2 points first.

Turning around is the offense of the Houston Rockets. After Chris Paul advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, he immediately found Capela inside. He knew very well that facing a team like the Dallas Mavericks, he must try first. Open up inside.

He is very familiar with his former teammate DeAndre Jordan, so of course he knows some of DeAndre Jordan's defensive habits.

He gave Capela a lob just now, and his original intention was to hope that Capela would shoot directly, because in this way he would have a chance to hit.

But Capela didn't understand what he meant. After he got the ball, he didn't make a decisive shot immediately, but tried to hit DeAndre Jordan with his back.

After Chris Paul saw Capela's move, he immediately sighed helplessly.

Because he already knew the result of this wave of attack.

Although he knows that Capela has been polishing his offensive skills this season, his level is still difficult to enter the room, and who is DeAndre Jordan?

The absolute overlord of inside defense, it is wishful thinking to successfully back him up.

Chris Paul felt that there was something wrong with Capela's thinking. He might have imagined himself as Anthony Davis for a moment.

"Don't hesitate, use your body and make the first move"

Commanding teammates in the game is a habit that Chris Paul has retained for so many years in his career. As a point guard, in fact, it is very important to have this.

On the way back to defense, Capela also nodded randomly after hearing Chris Paul's arrangement.

Obviously, he accepted Chris Paul's command very calmly.

But this trick may not be suitable for all players.

For example, James Harden hates Chris Paul's habit very much. He has always wanted to be directed by others during the game.

James Harden is very confident. He feels that he has the rhythm of playing and that he is a top super giant, so he doesn't need to listen to Chris Paul.

Luka Doncic gave the ball to Jiang Hao for the Lone Ranger, and Jiang Hao then made an elegant shot and successfully scored the first 2 points of tonight's game.

For Jiang Hao, he has been in the process of continuous growth so far this season. When people are discussing how good Luka Doncic is, don’t forget that Jiang Hao is only a second-year rookie .

James Harden's step-back three-pointer is definitely his signature, so even though Harris Barnes has tried [-]% to defend, he was still successfully scored by James Harden.

At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, it seemed that the shooting percentages of both teams were very high, and there was no such a one-sided situation.

.........

"Yao, you are a famous player in the history of the Houston Rockets, I know you have feelings for this team, and now, I also know that you are the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, so, I mean, that idiot in Morey has already In the case of being fired, can the relationship between the Houston Rockets and Chinese fans be restored?"

Tillman Fertitta finally got through to Yao Ming. Although he is the new owner of the Houston Rockets, this does not prevent him from using Yao Ming’s years of service in the Houston Rockets to play emotional cards. He knows that Yao Ming is A very popular public figure in China is now the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association. Therefore, if you communicate with Yao Ming, you will more or less receive some benefits.
