The Godfather of Basketball
v2 Chapter 230: obama
Christmas is over, because there is a Christmas war, they have no time to spare, turn around and throw themselves into a new game.
This year's opponent for the Rockets Christmas is the Hornets.
The Hornets performed well last season, and the Rockets also played fiercely in the playoffs. The league's arrangement is to shape the old grudges.
However, people are not as good as the sky. Paul was hit by a knee by Boozer when he played against the Jazz before. He suffered a serious career injury. Although he returned with injuries in just one week, he completely lost his previous explosive power.
Coupled with the injuries of Peja and Chandler, the Hornets have been bad luck this season.
The two sides have scored in three quarters, and the Rockets ended up taking the opponent 108-93 and gaining two consecutive victories.
Yao Ming McGrady both scored 20, and Yi Jianlian also steadily contributed 14 points and 7 rebounds.
After the lineup has stabilized, the Rockets' running-in effect is getting better and better.
On December 28, with only three days left until the New Year, the Rockets ushered in the Pistons' challenge at home.
Tang Tian's words against Lupus were fulfilled. After losing to the championship last season, the team's top management immediately decided to rebuild.
Rashid Wallace was traded to the Bulls for Ben Gordon, McDyess was sent to the Spurs, Alston was sent to the Magic, and the team was preparing to rebuild the team around Sessions and Prince.
In the face of the turbulent Pistons, the Rockets are also relentless, winning opponents 105-87.
Yi Jianlian was quite confident against Jason Maxill, hitting 10 goals in 11 shots, and scoring 20 points and 7 rebounds with high efficiency.
The Rockets once again won 3 games in a row!
On December 31, the last day of 2008, the Rockets visited Toronto.
The Raptors selected Bargnani in 2006, plus Bosh and O'Neal, who were trained by the Raptors, are also the Eastern Mini-Big Three. In addition, Calderon, Anthony Parker and other good substitutes, paper Face strength is not bad.
However, their record is relatively bad. Now 15 wins and 17 losses are ranked eighth in the East, and they are in danger of falling out of the playoffs at any time.
In the game, both Bargnani's offense and defense were blasted by Yao Ming. The Raptors could only carry Bosh, which directly gave Yi Jianlian a chance.
Facing Bargnani's average moving speed and autonomous offensive ability, Yi Jianlian played the strongest game since.
The game played for 32 minutes, 13 of 19 shots, the game soared 29 points and 9 rebounds, directly tied the last season's scoring record!
The outstanding performance made him shine even more than Yao Ming and McGrady tonight.
It is also with his amazing play that the Rockets defeated the Raptors 118-103 and extended their winning streak to 4 games.
After the game, Yi Jianlian also accepted an interview with local Houston media.
"Yi, you played very well. Can you share with us why?"
"I feel good tonight. It has a lot to do with my teammates. They can always pass the ball to me in the most comfortable position ... Ah!"
Yi Jianlian, who was talking, suddenly gave a scream, and the female reporter on the side was startled and laughed.
It turned out that Maddie didn't know where to find a glass of water, and jumped up and fell to Yi Jianlian's head.
Yi Jianlian was in the hair, and the water flowed down his hair.
He wiped his face and looked back at McGrady, grinning for a moment.
McGrady laughed and hugged Yi Jianlian, shouted "Yi! Yi!" To the interview camera, and then ran away with a smile.
In NBA, cold water topping is a common practice of teammates and a great affirmation of teammates' performance.
Yi Jianlian continued to be interviewed with a smile, frowning his hair, and showed no emotional changes.
With the increase in the temperature of performance and self-confidence, his personality is also undergoing some quiet changes.
The game with the Raptors ended, and the time officially entered 2009.
As the game progressed, the Rockets' opponents began to target Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian's performance has fallen somewhat. In addition, January's opponents are very strong, and the Rockets' record has also fallen.
In the middle of the game, the Rockets lost to the Eagles and Bulls and achieved a 4 win and 2 loss record.
At first glance, the team's performance was average, but in fact, after half-time play, the Rockets' record has reached 33 wins and 8 losses!
Because of the net win with the Lakers, the Rockets returned to the league's number one position after half a season!
The time has come for January 15, when the Rockets are visiting Washington against the Wizards.
As the defending champion, Tang Tian also led the team to visit the White House again before the game.
Millsap and Baria have no time because of the game, this time they are only those who left the team last season.
The cars drove into the White House, and they gradually got out of the cars.
"This is the lawn of the South Campus, it is the president ..." After getting off the car, a staff member explained to them.
However, the difference from one year ago is that Yao Ming, McGrady and Shane Battier are all familiar with the team two years ago, and the staff did not explain it.
Battier, in particular, has a high IQ and a high degree.
"Shawn, are you the owner here?" Sun Yue listened halfway and couldn't help laughing.
Battier was nicknamed "President". After listening to it, his teammates stunned, then looked at Battier, and immediately laughed.
This trip to the White House was significantly more joyful than the last time.
The team members entered the east room, waiting for the staff to explain, while waiting for the president's arrival.
"Welcome, champions." This time did not let them wait for a long time, and a black man less than 50 years old came in with a smile and greeted them with open hands.
Tang Tian looked up to see this energetic middle-aged man, and he was also quite moved.
He has been the president of the United States in the memory of his previous life. In front of him, this man was nicknamed Okuyama by the Chinese people, and he was the United States president with the most contacts with China.
Obama, the new president of the United States, has not officially announced his appointment, but has already begun work in the White House.
"Coach Tang, I know you, you are an incredible coach, so young." Obama always smiled and stretched out his hand to Tang Tian.
"Thank you, President, you are just as young." Tang Tian smiled and shook Obama.
After listening, Obama smiled happily, then turned around and greeted the other team members.
"Yao, you have made a great contribution to nba's overseas promotion ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ I like to watch you play."
...
Obama greeted them one by one without even introducing them by assistants.
It's not that he has a good memory, or a panic, but that he is also a basketball fan himself, who knows a little bit about the stars of the championship team.
After some brief communication in the East Room, they went to the backyard, where Obama asked the assistant to prepare a basket, and he had itchy hands.
"Coach? Come compare with me?" Obama took off his suit, exposed his white shirt, and smiled at Tang Tian.
