Legendary basketball manager

The Rockets' starters are as follows: Ty Lawson, Paul George, Danny Green, Scola, PJ Tucker.

Except for George, the rest of the regular starters are all taking turns today.

The Rockets fans present at the Toyota Center looked at the Yao-Mike combination in suits and leather shoes on the bench, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Brother, do you think we lost money this time?"

asked a black boy.

"Maybe. But our lineup is really young, and I still have some expectations for some reason."

The answer was also a black guy.

Many fans at the scene also held similar views.

In the VIP box, Ranadive was confused about the operation of the rocket.

"Don't get me wrong. The rotation of the main players for this game was decided after they played against the Thunder."

Shen Fei opened his mouth to explain.

"You guys are a little bit exaggerated."

"And the Rockets are winning 11 consecutive victories, so you are willing to end the winning streak like this?"

Ranadive asked curiously.

"Our goal is to win a championship."

"Winning or losing a regular season is sometimes very important, sometimes it is insignificant."

"As for the record of winning streak, it's useless. The Rockets once won 22 consecutive victories, but in the end they didn't go too far in the playoffs."

Shen Fei explained with a firm attitude and affirmative tone.

"The young man has a clear goal, hahaha."

Ranadive said with a smile.

Ajiali secretly watched Shen Fei from the side.

She has seen many so-called young talents who are tied up in front of her father and dare not speak.

But Shen Fei didn't feel nervous at all, he talked freely and calmly.

[No wonder you can be the general manager of an NBA team at such a young age. ]

Ajiali thought to herself.

"Today's Rockets, except for Scola, are all the players you signed this season."

Ranadive spoke.

"Well. Originally, Mark Jackson wanted to rest Scola, but after thinking about it, it's safer to keep a veteran on the court."

Shen Fei said lightly.

"To be honest, your second team, oh no, should be considered the third team, maybe better than all of our starting team."

Ranadive said with a wry smile.

The starting lineup for the Kings today is: white shooter - Benno - Udry, last year's best rookie - Tyreke - Evans, Omi - three-point free throw - Casspi, old Rockets - Carl - Landry, and this year's No. [-] pick-DeMarcus Cousins.

At first glance, the talent in this roster seems good.

But if you observe carefully, you can find that the entire starting lineup has more than enough height, but its speed is seriously insufficient!

"You're too humble! You'll have to wait until the game starts to find out who is stronger and who is weaker."

Rockets boss - Alexander responded.

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

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

Scola jumped the distance of a matchbox and easily defeated the scrimmage.

The king strikes first!

As soon as he came up, Evans showed a strong desire to attack.

In the first round, with the help of Landry's cover, he successfully got rid of George's defense.

After coming to the penalty area, Evans encountered Tucker's supplementary defense, but he was very calm, flicked his wrist, and passed the ball to Udrih in the bottom corner.

The latter didn't hesitate, and immediately chose to make a move.

It's a pity that although his shooting trajectory is very positive, his strength is not well grasped.

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

Fortunately, Cousins ​​jumped high, took off the rebound on Scola's head, and scored in the second attack!

2:0, the Kings took the lead.

In the VIP box, Ajiali jumped up from her seat, celebrating Cousins' goal with vigor.

While celebrating, she suddenly felt Shen Fei's gaze, her face turned red again, and she hurriedly sat back in her seat.

"Manager Shen Fei, what do you think of DeMarcus?"

Ajiali threw out the first question of the day to hide her embarrassment.

"There is absolutely no problem with Cousins' talent. I even think his upper limit is higher than this year's No. [-] pick-John Wall."

"However, according to my pre-draft observations, Cousins' mentality is a big problem."

"He is still like a big boy. Once the emotions are ignited, he is a double-edged sword on the court."

Shen Fei simply analyzed.

As soon as his words fell, Scola swayed Cousins ​​away with his nimble steps on the court and made an easy layup.

2:2, the Rockets equalized the score.

Cousins, who was alone, was naturally unconvinced. After the offensive and defensive transition, he immediately fell to the low post and asked for the ball, wanting to respond.

But Scola has rich experience, and he knew at a glance that this young man wanted to fight hard.

So he used his plan, first he took Cousins' back hit a few times, and then fell to the ground when he pushed forward with all his strength.

"Beep!"

The whistle sounded, an offensive foul!

Cousins ​​tossed the ball to the referee in frustration, then put his hands on the back of his head.

It wasn't over yet, he turned around and yelled at Scola, who had just been pulled up by his teammates: "What kind of man is a flop, if you have the ability to guard me!"

Scola didn't take this crappy aggressive method at all, and responded with a smile: "Didn't I just prevent you?"

Cousins ​​was furious: "You! You wait for me!"

In the next round, Kaoshen made a comeback and asked for the ball in the low post again.

Kings point guard - Udrih hesitated for a moment, but passed the ball.

Cousins ​​once again met Scola's defense.

He has learned a lot from a fall, this time he did not use brute force to hit him, but added fake moves such as shaking his shoulders.

But... the current Cousins ​​is far from the powerful center who can average 30 points per game in the future.

The immature, he put all his attention on the confrontation with Scola, but ignored George who came from the bottom line to help defend.

The pickled pepper ghost stretched out his hand, and directly knocked off the basketball in Cousins' hands.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Lawson immediately took control of the ball, and the Rockets took advantage of the opportunity to launch a counterattack!

After Cousins ​​made a mistake, he struggled back to defend.

A heavy center forward with a height of more than 2 meters can follow closely behind the defenders, which shows his strong athletic talent!

However, active defense does not mean effective defense.

Cousins ​​tried his best to keep up with George's pace, and was going to treat the latter to a hot hot pot.

Unexpectedly, Lawson seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, and suddenly made a No-look-pass (passing the ball without looking at people), and passed the ball back to George who followed up.

Cousins ​​turned his head quickly, only to see Pickled Pepper leaping high!

George in the air, his body is like a fully drawn bow, full of strength!

"BANG!"

He actually faced Cousins ​​and completed a powerful dunk!

"WOW~"

The Toyota Center was boiling instantly, and the fans couldn't help cheering for George's wonderful dunk.

At the same time, Cousins' face has turned black after experiencing being singled out, failing in singles, and being dunked!
