The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 48: Team shortboard

"What is this?" Tang Tian asked doubtfully, he had not heard of this part of Christmas in previous lives.

"This is good news."

"Report good news?" Tang Tian looked at Hathaway in doubt.

"In the legend, the angel once reported the good news of Jesus' birth to the shepherds outside Bethlehem. This ritual is to reproduce the process. Every year the church organizes some choirs to sing Christmas carols at the door or window from house to house. Eventually it will grow larger. "

After listening to Hathaway's explanation, Tang Tian probably understood. I did not expect that there is such an interesting tradition at Christmas.

"Let's make a wish. It is said that the wish made at this time can be heard by Jesus, and the wish will come true."

Hathaway said, stretched out her hands and started making a wish.

Tong Tangtian saw that she did the same thing after seeing it.

I waited until the song stopped there before Hathaway let go.

"What wish did you make?" Hathaway asked, turning his head.

"Don't say that the promise you promised can't be said, isn't it true when you say it?" Tang Tian asked.

"Do you have such a statement?"

"Are you here?"

Both of them are confused.

"It's simple. I don't want to say my wish. Just tell me your wish." Tang Tian said with a smile.

Hathaway took a moment to return to God, and then slammed Tang Tian's chest: "Good boy, take advantage of your cousin!"

Tang Tian also made Hathaway play, and then laughed.

"But it doesn't matter to tell you, I just hope you can go well in the NBA." Hathaway went on.

Tang Tian paused for a moment. He originally thought that Hathaway would make a wish to become a supermodel or something at an early date, but he did not expect to make a wish for him.

The moonlight illuminated Hathaway, at this time it seemed to be very charming.

I saw that Tang Tian had been looking at himself, Hathaway's face was slightly red, and he turned to look inside the house and said, "It's the New Year's bell soon, let's go back to the room."

Tang Tian returned to God, nodded, and followed Hathaway back to the room.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

With the countdown, the ribbon held by Hathaway and Tang Tian spurted into the sky. For Americans, a new year is coming.

天 On the first day after Christmas, Tang Tian returned to the team.

While everyone else was sitting in front of the TV watching the Heat and the Lakers' Christmas battle, he and Sibodu were already sitting in the conference room studying the videotape.

Although the team is doing well, the next game will be difficult for the Rockets.

In the following week, in addition to the two games against the Nuggets, they also played once with the Suns and the Spurs, including one back-to-back, the intensity of which is comparable to the finals.

The two studied for a whole day, and the tactics and rotations were almost the same.

However, in the end, Tang Tian was somewhat inexplicably worried, but for a while he could not say anything.

The NBA Christmas War has attracted a lot of attention. Unfortunately, O'Neal's absence due to injury did not allow OK resentment to be staged again.

However, the game did not disappoint the fans. Wade sent 40 points and 11 assists in this game and led the team to a 101-85 victory over the Lakers. Kobe played a little abnormally, only 16 of 4 of 17 shots. Points, his 40+ score record also came to an abrupt halt.

湖 The Lakers this season are Bryant's single core, various scoring records are broken every day, but they will always be tired, let alone on the first day after Christmas.

After the end of the Christmas War, the NBA teams began to busy for the next game.

After a morning training, the Rockets flew to Denver, where they will face the new Nuggets.

Denver is located on the plateau and is one of the NBA's well-known plateau home courts. The away game here is obviously not easy to play.

Iverson has just arrived on the team and hasn't run into the Nuggets yet. It is Tang Tian's strategy and correct thinking to hold Anthony and Iverson together.

But for the first time, the game was a little out of control.

Anthony was restricted by Shane Battier, but Iverson exploded the Rockets' point guards on both ends of the offense and defense. Whether it was Alston, Spannoris, or even Hyde, they were severely beaten by the historic star Exploded once.

In the end, although Yao Mai scored 60 points and the Rockets also hit 14 three-pointers, the team still defeated the opponent 111-114.

Iverson went crazy in the first game after joining the Nuggets, scoring a season-high 42 points and taking away the victory.

火箭 After a rest day, the Rockets flew to St. Anthony to challenge the Spurs.

The Rockets played steadily in the first three quarters. With the outstanding performance of Yao Mai and the team's accurate three-pointers, they have always been on par with the Spurs.

But in the crucial fourth quarter, the Spurs' "French sports car" Parker began to show strength, stealing Alstom one after another, personally hit a wave of 6 to 0, the Spurs also snatched the victory, and finally won 102 to 96 Next game.

Parker contributed 23 points, 11 assists and 6 steals in the entire game, playing MVP level performance.

He followed the Rockets non-stop to Phoenix to challenge the Suns.

Maybe I realized something ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ The Suns coach D'Antoni intentionally added Nash's personal ball attack, and the Rockets' point guard group used the crazy push mode.

Alston was forced to become a fixed-point shooter, but it seemed to be affected by the last game and felt bad, 0-for-5 from the three-point line.

Not only that, he also sprained his wrist at the final moment of the game and became suspicious in the next game.

Nash played his MVP-level performance, scoring an extravagant double-double with 32 points and 18 assists, leading the Suns to defeat the Rockets 120-111.

Tang Tian's worry became a reality. The Rockets suffered a three-game losing streak after Christmas.

担心 That worry also proved to be from the point guard group.

Millsap's arrival makes up for the Rockets power forward problem, but the point guard group has not changed much.

Because more offenses were dealt with by Yao Ming, this was not obvious in the previous games, but in this wave of high-intensity games, coupled with the research of the opponent, this weakness was completely revealed.

After finishing the game with the Suns, Tang Tian went to Dawson's private house that night.

Dawson was soaking his feet, the door opened by Mrs. Dawson.

After Tang Tian smiled at Mrs. Dawson, she walked straight towards Dawson.

Dawson guessed that Tang Tian was because of the team's affairs. After rubbing his feet, he led Tang Tian into the study.

"Don, this team's losing streak is expected, the opponent is very strong, and the schedule is very tight, so don't worry too much." Dawson closed the door and said.

"We need a deal."

Tang Tian's next words made Dawson stunned. He thought that Tang Tian rushed to find him because he was afraid of pressure from the management.
