Legendary basketball manager

On December 12th, beautiful country time, the Rockets sit at home and ushered in the opening game of the regular season!

Before the game, two retired players -- Tracy McGrady and Ben Wallace -- both came to the Toyota Center Arena.

Both of them have just retired, but when they meet again today, their physical condition is quite different.

McGrady's cheeks are much more bulging than a few months ago, and his whole body has a tendency to gain weight.

At first glance, I can see that I have lived a very comfortable life recently, and I no longer eat as scientifically as in the past.

And Ben Wallace remains the same.

Even if the afro has been cut off, even if the hair on the sideburns is dyed a little white, Da Ben is still like a lion, just standing there gives people a sense of oppression.

But regardless of their physical condition, the Rockets fans present gave the warmest applause!

Especially Maddie.

When he took over the championship ring from Shen Fei, all the fans in the Toyota Center stood up and shouted together:

"mvp!!!"

"mvp!!!"

"mvp!!!"

......

McGrady was originally sleepy and smiling.

But after seeing Shen Fei and feeling the fans' love, he put on the ring with tears in his eyes, and kissed the ring affectionately.

The audience applauded thunderously, and paid respects to the two retired heroes again.

On the side, both Curry and George looked in McGrady's direction with piercing eyes.

Both young people said in interviews that they want to take over McGrady's banner and lead the Rockets to continue their glory.

Off the court, Leonard, Klay Thompson and others showed hope.

Obviously, they also hope that one day they can receive the championship ring amidst the cheers of the audience like McGrady and Big Ben!

............

After about 15 minutes of ceremony, the game officially started.

Against the Rockets tonight is the Eastern Conference powerhouse - the Boston Celtics.

Last season, due to Garnett's injury, the Celtics' performance plummeted, and Ray Allen even defected to the Heat.

Now that KG has returned from injury, the Celtics have breathed a sigh of relief.

Also, because of Ray Allen's departure, ab-Avery Bradley got more playing time last season.

This young player who is good at defense has shown good potential.

Many professional ball commentators believe that Bradley will become a defensive leader at the defensive level in the future, and even have the opportunity to hit dpoy!

And the young ab also injected more vigor and energy into this Celtics.

In a sense, Bradley's role in this Celtic team is not necessarily inferior to Ray Allen!

The appearance of Bradley also gave the Celtics the hope of making a comeback.

At the award ceremony just now, all the generals of the Celtics looked serious, and their coveted hearts were palpable.

With the referee throwing the ball high, the game officially begins!

Yao Ming and Garnett jumped up at the same time.

Dayao won the scrimmage by virtue of his height advantage.

The rocket strikes first!

Curry passed the half court with the ball and came to the top of the arc to organize.

In the first round, he passed the ball to the inside, allowing Yao Ming to play back from the position.

The Celtics' defensive strategy for Dayao is very clear, which is to quickly double-team him after dribbling.

Yao Ming waved his hand and passed the ball to the right at a 45-degree angle.

After George received the ball, Pierce was swayed by a fake shot, and he took a step to make a jump shot...

hit!

2:0, the Rockets took the lead!

Offensive and defensive transition, Rondo dribbled the ball across half court, and came to the top of the arc to deal the cards.

Curry took a step back, kept throwing shots, and was ready to help his teammates defend at any time.

Three seconds later, Bradley came out with the help of a cover.

When Rondo saw the ball, he passed the ball immediately.

ab catches the ball and shoots, but when the shot is made, Shu Hao struggles to take off and interferes, and successfully interferes with Bradley's sight.

"duang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket and bounced out.

Yi Jianlian accurately predicted where the ball would land, leaped high before Garnett got stuck, and received the rebound.

Then, he passed the ball to Curry on the side.

The Rockets took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack!

During the fast break, Curry watched the six directions and kept observing the running positions of his teammates.

This also put invisible pressure on the generals of the Green Army, not daring to pay too much attention to Curry.

After dribbling the ball to around two meters from the three-point line, the Rockets No. 30 shot a cold arrow and shot a super long three-pointer...

Again!

5: 0!

This goal also made the already very excited Rockets fans even more excited.

Their voices were louder and louder, as if they were about to knock down the roof of the arena at any moment!

However, the Celtics players have all seen strong winds and waves.

In the next offensive round, "Truth" Pierce hit George with a low back, turned over and leaned back, helping the team break the deadlock.

5: 2!

After the ball was scored, George gritted his teeth secretly.

Obviously, he was very upset that he was eating alone.

Even if the person who eats him alone is Pierce, who is known for singles.

The Rockets' offensive round.

George also came to the low post and asked for the ball with his hands.

Curry's adult beauty hit the ground and passed the ball.

While catching the ball, George turned around and made a breakthrough towards the bottom line.

But after taking a step, he immediately pulled back under his crotch.

This back and forth is extremely fast, and the fake movements are also very realistic.

It was very difficult for Pierce's "old cold legs" to keep up with the first step. When he pulled back, he gave up resistance and raised his hand symbolically on the spot.

"Shu~"

George raised his knife and hit answer.ball!

Offensive and defensive conversion.

Pierce came out of the screen and caught the ball at the top of the key.

But George followed him like a shadow, and immediately posted it, not giving the opponent a chance to make a direct move.

Pierce lowered his center of gravity and used his weight advantage to force a breakthrough.

He rushed all the way to the free throw line against George's defense, then quietly pushed forward with his shoulders, and at the same time made a step back.

George snorted, but didn't stop at his feet. He rushed towards Pierce with all his strength, and successfully touched the basketball after the latter made a shot!

The ball fell in the air, and Yi Jianlian once again predicted where the ball would land, jumped up quickly, and controlled the falling basketball.

The rocket launched a counterattack again!

This time, Curry attracted Rondo and Garnett's attack.

But he unexpectedly passed the ball back to Yao Ming who followed up in the middle.

After receiving the ball, Dayao set up a high fort and made a decisive three-pointer!

After the basketball left his fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a beautiful arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

10:2, the Rockets made a fantastic start!

Celtics coach Doc Rivers saw the situation was not good and resorted to the first timeout of the game.

............

On the first attack after the timeout, Rondo handed the ball to Garnett.

kg back beat Yi Jianlian.

After two hits with mediocre results, he blasted the ball vigorously with his right hand, and at the same time his shoulders continued to sway left and right, and then he turned back and shot...

Ah Lian was overwhelmed, his center of gravity was shaken, and he failed to give enough interference.

After hitting the board, the ball crashed into the net!

10:4, this ball can stop the bleeding for the Green Army!
