This Forward is Not Serious

On the afternoon of the training day, the Rockets arrived in Denver for daily training.

At night, Lin Ying asked Yao Ming to have dinner together.

Yao Ming helped him a lot, and he wanted to do what he could to fulfill his friendship as a landlord.

It's just that there are no authentic Chinese restaurants in Denver, and they can't accept the improved taste, so they can only eat some Western food in the end.

"I can consider opening a Yao restaurant in Denver."

Yao Ming said.

There are not many Chinese in Denver now, only about 3.4% of the population.

But this is just a base number. As Lin Ying plays better and better, the Chinese market will become bigger.

And there will definitely be more Chinese who come to watch the football because of the fame.

Celebrity, just like Yao Ming himself in Houston.

"I can consider buying shares."

Lin Ying was serious.

Yao Ming was stunned for a moment, and then laughed into embarrassment.

Actually, it's not impossible.

"You know what? You did something I've always wanted to do but couldn't."

After Yao Ming finished laughing, he suddenly said seriously.

Lin Ying looked at Yao Ming suspiciously.

Until Yao Ming made a boxing movement.

Good guy, Yao Ming actually appreciates his boxing!

Originally, he thought that with Yao Ming's character, he would be persuaded to suppress his emotions and not be so violent.

Now it seems that he still doesn't know enough about Yao Ming!

But speaking of it, Yao Ming didn't have any conflicts in the NBA, and his teammates always stood up for him in fights. The biggest reason was his situation.

As China's first NBA champion and the most concerned Chinese player, he basically represents China.

If he makes a move, he will label the Chinese barbaric every minute with the piss of the American media.

Moreover, his height and agility are too poor, and he is not suitable for hands at all.

Look at the scene where O'Neal was hugged and fell to the ground by Barkley when he was playing, you know that this size looks scary, but it is actually more like a living target.

But even so, it is not that Yao Ming has never had conflicts with others. In the Fiba match against New Zealand, he also directly overthrew the defender.

What's more, Lin Ying's incident was also due to Bo Wen's sneak attack.

If you don't fight back, people think you are easy to bully, and if you fight back next time, even more people will do it.

"But you still have to pay attention, it will be troublesome if you are targeted by the referee."

Of course, at the end, Yao Ming still reminded Lin Ying.

In the United States, white people discriminate against black people, and black people discriminate against minorities. It is the most difficult for people of yellow race to play in the NBA.

Lin Ying nodded, Yao Ming's reminder was very timely.

Among other things, if he attracted the referee's attention too much, his newly learned tricks would basically be useless.

Because once you use it and blow it, if you blow it a few times, you will not be able to play.

"By the way, there is a question I've always wanted to ask you. With such a large amount of training, will your body overreact?"

Yao Ming suddenly asked with concern.

Lin Ying looked at him suspiciously.

"Li Ke, do you still remember? Your national team teammate who played in the Asian Championships before."

Lin Ying nodded, Li Ke still had a deep impression on him.

In the final of the Asian Championships against Iran, Ah Tijiang adjusted his lineup to use Li Ke and his partner's inside line.

His skills are still very good, and he is very passionate, directly facing Haddadi.

It's like not being able to exercise well enough.

"He used to be able to dance very well, and he was called Liu Yudong's successor in China, but he also had too high demands on himself, practiced too much, and calcified the bones of his legs."

Yao Ming said with a little emotion.

And don't be surprised by his emotion, Li Ke was included in the squad for the Athens Olympics in 2002!

The hopeful star of the men's basketball team.

If he hadn't crippled himself, he might even have a chance to pursue his NBA dream.

But just like Yao Ming said, he set too high demands on himself, and as a result, he failed in practice.

Lin Ying was still a little shocked after hearing this.

I've heard of those who play with things and lose their minds, but this is the first one to practice themselves.

"I'm fine, I haven't had much reaction."

After he recovered, he continued.

"That may have something to do with the training method. He didn't practice correctly in China. It would be better if you had a trainer. But no matter what, if your body reacts, you should seek the team doctor as soon as possible. There can be no second Li Ke. gone."

Yao Ming spoke earnestly and sincerely at the end.

Lin Ying's talent is much higher than Li Ke's, and she will be much more helpful to the men's basketball team.

And he also likes Lin Ying's character, he really doesn't want to see the tragedy repeat itself.

Lin Ying nodded.

This reminded him of Tang Tian, ​​the old Chinese doctor from before.

This game has no chance because it is in Denver.

The next time he goes to Houston to play against the Rockets, he will have to meet him.

"You have to perform well tomorrow night, and people in the country will watch us."

At the end of the meal, Yao Ming talked about tomorrow's game.

In the national derby, he and Wang Zhizhi had encountered each other before, but the two basically never played together.

It is precisely because of this that the domestic ratings of Yao Yi Derby, where the Rockets played the Bucks last time, exploded, even higher than that of Lin Ying playing the Asian Championships.

So we can foresee what kind of grand occasion tomorrow night's game will be.

And Yi Jianlian played very well in the derby, with 19 points and 9 rebounds.

Just like the comparison with the previous debut, fans will naturally compare him with Yi Jianlian.

Lin Ying nodded.

He didn't feel that he had to play better than Yi Jianlian, but with such a high degree of attention, he had to go all out!

...

On the evening of the second day, at the Pepsi Center in Denver, the attendance rate of fans reached 90%!

Golden Spears, Lin Ying, Yao Mai, this game is full of stars.

Moreover, there are a large number of Chinese fans!

There are only so many national derbys in a season, and anyone who has the opportunity to come must not want to miss it!

Lin Ying felt that the restaurant matter he talked with Yao Ming yesterday was actually quite reliable!

During the warm-up before the game, Lin Ying took the initiative to find Hayes.

When Crazy Three, Hayes gave him a trick, which helped him a lot in the matchup with Oden.

At that time, because he was using Yao Ming's mobile phone, he could only ask Yao Ming to thank him on his behalf.

Now that he saw someone in reality, he still had to thank him personally.

Hayes was very polite, and even jokingly told him to be merciful during the game.

Well, that punch of his was considered a "hit" of fame in the NBA.

After the warm-up before the game, the starting lineups of both sides were released.

Rockets: Alstom, McGrady, Battier, Hayes, Yao Ming.

It is worth mentioning that the Rockets finally added some substitutes in the summer.

With Luis Scola and Bunkie Wells joining the lineup, Francis returning, and rookie Brooks, the bench is even a little richer.

As long as there are no major injuries, this team has great hopes for the championship.

Nuggets: Carter Sr., Iverson, Anthony, Martin, Nene.

The game started quickly, with Yao jumping for the Rockets.

In addition to the reinforcement of the Rockets this season, there is also a very important change that is the change of the head coach.

Van Gundy left in May, Adelman took over in July, and the Rockets started playing Princeton.

Back then, Lin Ying's first opponent was Georgetown University against Princeton, so she was naturally familiar with this tactic.

Coming up is the familiar low-level series.

Hayes cuts in with a spiritual reverse run.

Don't be confused by his naive and cute appearance and tough defense. One of Haiye's magic weapons to gain a foothold in the NBA, like Lin Ying, is a golf quotient.

Yao Ming made a nice behind-the-back pass, and Hayes took the ball for a quick layup... and got caught by the basket.

A billion points of embarrassment.

There was a lot of laughter at the scene.

Lin Ying couldn't help rubbing her hands.

In fact, if the Rockets play Princeton, it is more appropriate for Scola to start with Yao Ming.

Everyone in the Princeton system is an end point, and the last touch is very important.

But Scola is also a rookie.

Just like what happened to Lin Ying at the University of Texas at the beginning, unless the talent is beyond the list, there will inevitably be a transition period for newcomers who want to start.

Martin rushed to accept the defensive rebound, and the Nuggets "defended" into a wave.

Looking back, Carter Sr. was about to give the ball to Anthony, only to find that Anthony walked aside and didn't mean to ask for the ball at all.

I don't know if he hasn't adjusted from the last game. Anthony's offensive desire tonight doesn't look high.

The old Carter turned around and gave the ball to Iverson. Iverson singled out a wave of Alston, and saw Hayes choose an emergency stop jumper at the basket.

"when!"

Didn't go in either.

The two teams sent each other a iron at the beginning.

Looking back, Yao Ming continued to hold the ball. This time he saw that Martin had no intention of double-teaming, and directly attacked Nene, turned around and scored with a signature hook.

The Rockets scored first.

Iverson made a breakthrough to the basket and was interfered by Hayes and still missed.

His hands didn't look good tonight.

Carl felt a little uncomfortable at this point.

Anthony's offensive desire is not high, and Iverson's hand feels bad, and both guns are off fire. How can this game be played?

After less than seven minutes, the score was 4 to 14, and the Nuggets were already 10 points behind the Rockets.

In fact, the Rockets just changed their tactics, and Princeton didn't play well, and Yao Ming and McGrady played singles more often.

But the Nuggets themselves sucked offensively tonight.

Iverson made 1 of 6 shots, Anthony made 0 of 2 shots, and the golden double guns turned into scrap metal.

After playing for half a quarter, Karl finally couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and called Lin Ying and Smith up.

The two played, replacing Carter Sr. and Anthony.

And as soon as Anthony came down, Karl went up to chat with him about life.

Normally speaking, facing opponents of the Rockets' level, it is impossible to win without Anthony.

On the field, Lin Ying also played so early for the first time in her career.

Moreover, because of Anthony's downturn, he is also playing small forward for the first time!

Originally, because it was the first time, he was a little nervous.

But he didn't feel it the moment he came on the field.

Because, the fans at the scene gave him crazy, no, crazy cheers!

He was suspended for one game before, and this is his first appearance since he was expelled from the Spurs!

The fans' carnival on social media has not dissipated because of the passage of time!

On the contrary, in the last match against Sun Sanying, Anthony was brutally slaughtered. They missed Lin Ying even more!

Especially tonight when Anthony's desire to attack is so low, they think he is a false leader.

Now Lin·Zhen Leader·Ying is here, how about you?

Moreover, in Lin Ying's first round, Iverson actually gave him the ball! !

Fuck it, what about the familiar ball-grabbing battle?

Happiness came so suddenly, Lin Ying was a little overwhelmed!

Maybe Lin Ying didn't even think about it, even though he was sent off in the game against the Spurs, and was also suspended and fined.

But what he got in return was far more than what he lost!

Battier's intention to steal made him recover from the shock, he took the ball and began to direct traffic, ah no, organize the attack!

Happiness comes too suddenly, but challenges are also visible.

And because he plays small forward, his biggest advantage "space" can't be used.

Hitting Battier in the low post?

Let's not talk about Battier's defensive ability. He went to the low post. It is estimated that Hayes on the Rockets' side will switch defenses immediately.

And more importantly, the Nuggets don't have any rules when they are in position, they just play with two guns and singles.

He has to play complicated tactics, and it is impossible for the Nuggets to fight immediately.

Although he has the ball in his hand, what is in front of him is like:

Let u=f(x,y,z)=x2-y2+z, find the gradient gradf(1,1,1) at the point (1,1,1).

Whether you can understand it or not is another matter, whether you can understand it or not is a problem!

The offensive clock is running, and there is not much time left for him to think.

Lin Ying didn't bother to solve any problems, so she played simply.

With a wave of your hand, let's have a horn first!

Horns and diamonds are the most commonly used tactics in basketball.

Before the Lakers played against the Nuggets, the triangle tactic was their system tactic, but Farmar directed the team to play the horns.

This tactic is very simple. The first position holds the ball at the top of the arc, the fourth and fifth positions raise the free throw line and double pick and roll, and the second and third positions fall to the bottom corners on both sides, like a "V".

This is also what Lin Ying analyzed after watching the lineup on the field.

He and Smith's three-point ability are both stable (Smith's three-point career-high 41% this season), Martin and Nene's big pick-and-roll quality is high.

The rest is Iverson's own choice.

The horn tactics itself is a basic tactic with a high degree of freedom.

The first wave of organizations from Lin Ying's Nuggets career.

Iverson returned to the top of the arc to hold the ball again, the tactics were in place, and he walked the side of Nene's pick-and-roll.

Yao Ming completed the weight gain during the Van Gundy period and is already a standard heavy center.

Iverson is very fast, the Rockets can only change, as soon as Iverson is changed, he will pass Yao Ming and kill him to the basket.

Neither Lin Ying nor Smith dared to let go, and Iverson went to the basket and scored an easy layup.

Comfortable!

Iverson played so easily for the first time after coming to the Nuggets!

Don't be surprised, because it's impossible for the Nuggets to play like this.

Generally speaking, both guns are present at the same time. You let Anthony squat in the bottom corner as a shooter?

I'm afraid you don't want to hang out in Denver anymore!

In fact, let alone Anthony, it is impossible for Smith to squat in the bottom corner!

But now, Lin Ying, one of the 91 combinations and Iverson's friend, can really make the team play like this.

Carl couldn't help but laugh.

He saw new hope!

And back on the defensive end, Lin Ying quickly pinched Yao Ming who was holding the ball.

Yao Ming's speed was slow after gaining weight, and he underestimated Lin Ying's long arm, when he turned around and passed the ball back, Lin Ying cut it off!

As soon as Lin Ying made the pass, the Nuggets played a defensive counterattack.

Yao Ming chased after him hard.

Kid, I told you to behave well, and I didn't let you kill me!
