Chapter 847: Yao Ming's Thoughts and the Heat's Internal Strife!
Won...
The Seattle SuperSonics defeated the Heat away from home...
Before the game started, the Seattle SuperSonics, whose winning rate was less than 2%, finally defeated the Miami Heat...
At the last moment, Yes stole the ball from LeBron James and made a layup in a fast break to kill the Miami Heat in silence and disbelief...
Looking at the silent TV now, Yao Ming, Roy and the Rockets were very calm and uncomfortable at this time.
In the competition with the Seattle SuperSonics for the eighth place in the West, they finally lost to the SuperSonics...
Last season, they had a record of 73 wins and 9 losses, and this season, they had a record of 59 wins and 23 losses, and missed the playoffs...
"Miracle, it really happened..."
Before the game between the SuperSonics and the Heat started, the Rockets had been worried that there would be some miracles in the game between the SuperSonics and the Heat that they could not imagine and did not want to see.
When the game ended, the miracle finally came...
Five-double + buzzer beater...
Who would have thought that the miracle Yes played in this game would be such a miracle!
Who could have thought?
Even though the Rockets had a bad feeling in their hearts, they didn't dare to imagine such a thing happening.
They really couldn't imagine it.
Even until now, they didn't dare to imagine it.
As the Rockets' star player, Yao Ming is really uncomfortable now.
He was the MVP of the regular season last season and led the team to the best regular season record in history. Although this season, McGrady's hand and Artest's departure did have a great impact on the Rockets.
But even so, he still wants to make a difference this season!
When he first entered the NBA, he certainly had many dreams, but he basically knew that those were just dreams.
For him, his reality is to play the momentum and reputation of Chinese players in an NBA team from beginning to end!
As for the final achievement, it would be good if there is one, and it would not be forced if there is none, as long as it does not bring shame to the word China.
At that time, he really didn't have such great ambitions.
But now, after he won the regular season MVP, the best record in the regular season, the best defensive player, the first team and the first defense, and the Olympic champion, when he has become one of the greatest centers in the NBA and even the entire history of basketball, how could he just be content to be an ordinary player with no ambitions.
He longs for the championship!
Not only the World Championships champion.
But also the NBA champion!
He is no longer the former Yao Ming who has no ambitions and only pursues to be loyal and not to embarrass China.
Now his achievements in the NBA have made it impossible for him to embarrass the word China.
So, he naturally has to pursue his own self-worth.
It can be said that this season is the first season for him to pursue his own self-worth!
Regardless of whether this season can finally achieve the goal of the championship of self-worth, he wants to give it a try!
But in the end, he and his team couldn't even make the playoffs!
Yao Ming's face is very, very ugly now.
Of course, he congratulated Ye Zi. Ye Zi played a miraculous performance. He deserved to enter the playoffs. He had a difficult season in the Rockets. Ye Zi had a more difficult time in the Supersonics. He did not have the support of Durant and had to carry Ibaka, a burden.
The key is the Rockets!
Why did the Rockets lose Artest this season?
Why did they lose Ariza?
Isn't it because the contracts of these two people expired and the Rockets did not really want to renew their contracts?
Last season, the Rockets did fight hard, but McGrady's injury instantly extinguished the Rockets' ambitions.
Alexander felt that McGrady was gone. Even if he paid the luxury tax to keep Artest and Ariza in the team, the team would not win the championship, after all, the Heat were so strong.
While hesitating, Artest and Ariza were hooked by the Lakers.
In the end, the Rockets not only lost McGrady this season, but also lost the team's strongest forward last season.
So that he and Roy were really alone!
Roy was forced to play the second and third positions, and at the same time he had to take on the responsibility of organizing the team. One person had to do the work of two or three people.
And what about him?
Because Artest left, Gerald Wallace went to the third position, Scola started, he not only had to guard the center, but also had to help Scola clean up his ass.
Scola's offense is indeed excellent.
But defense, that's really hard to say. He has put a lot of energy on the defensive end this season, and the power on the offensive end will decline. Although he is the best defensive player in the league, the whole world knows that his offense is the strongest.
But in this season's Rockets, he needs to sacrifice the strongest offense to make up for the defense!
This season failed.
If it was just a failure, he would not be discouraged, as long as he started again.
The key is that the team owner's pattern made him see no hope of starting again!
If he was still the unambitious Yao Ming, he might not feel bad, and his loyalty to the Rockets would stop him from thinking about these things.
But in the past few years, regular season MVP, Olympic champion, and various honors, large and small, have nourished his ambition. Such ambition cannot be suppressed by his loyalty to the Rockets.
Looking at the SuperSonics No. 9 on TV with his hands raised, for the first time, Yao Ming thought that maybe leaving the current Rockets was an option.
Of course, such thoughts were fleeting.
His loyalty to the Rockets is still very strong in his heart.
Moreover, his contract with the Rockets will not expire until 2011, and it is now 2009.
He has two seasons left on his contract with the Rockets.
After McGrady returns next season, they can continue to impact.
Maybe next season, they will have a chance.
Maybe……
Without entering the playoffs, Yao Ming had many things on his mind. After recovering from such negative emotions, Yao Ming knew that as the leader of the team, he could not be too indulging in his own emotions.
He believes that his teammates will not feel any better than him.
"Brothers, I am not able to lead you to the playoffs this year. This is my responsibility and I am sorry."
Yao Ming's apology made the Rockets, who were originally worried, calm down for a moment, and then looked at Yao Ming.
Yao Ming is actually apologizing to them? !
Faced with Yao Ming's apology, Roy was surprised but not too surprised, while other Rockets players were a little at a loss.
It's really not Yao Ming's fault that the team failed to enter the playoffs this season.
Yao Ming's performance this season has been outstanding enough.
The Rockets' record this season is already quite incredible, 59 wins and 23 losses!
With this record, can you blame the team boss for not being able to enter the playoffs?
What's more, given the current situation of the Rockets this season, everyone is a Rockets player. Who can not know what the team's intentions are that lead to such a result?
If the team can keep Artest and Ariza, the team won't lose so much at the beginning of the season. The Rockets won't say whether they can beat the Cavaliers and take first place in the league.
At the very least, the Rockets are definitely the biggest contender for first place in the Western Conference!
In the second half of the schedule, the Rockets, under the leadership of Yao Ming, are the best team in the Western Conference!
In the first half of the schedule, because they lost a lot of teammates and were not used to leading the team on their own, the team did lose a lot.
But after Yao Ming adapted to becoming a leader, it can almost be said that he has become a perfect leader in the Rockets!
"yao..."
Seeing Yao Ming bowing and apologizing like this, even Rockets head coach Adelman couldn't bear it.
If Yao needs to apologize, everyone on the team needs to apologize, including himself.
Just when Adelman was about to express this meaning...
"Although we failed this season, our goal will never change, the championship. I hope that next season, after we welcome back Tracy, we can continue to maintain the winning spirit in the second half of this season! "
"I hope that each of us can end the loss and failure of last season on this day. At this moment, starting from tomorrow, we can have a fresh start!"
"Of course, I said whether our team has a fresh start doesn't count. Whether you forgive me and are willing to accompany me to continue fighting is the most important thing!"
"Brothers, are you still willing to continue walking with me?!"
"At least next season, I hope we can continue to work hard for our dreams again!"
Seeing Yao Ming like this, Adelman, who originally wanted to say something, finally said nothing.
Gerald Wallace, who had been watched by Yao Ming, gritted his teeth and forced his eyes to think for a while, then nodded slowly.
"We will never fail again next season!"
Gerald Wallace can opt out of his contract in the summer of this season.
When Gerald Wallace was the first to express his stance, other Rockets players also followed suit.
The morale of the army caused by not entering the playoffs was directly invisible under Yao Ming's speech.
Adelman looked on, feeling ashamed and remorseful.
This season, he is not worthy of Yao Ming.
At the same time, the Rockets this season are not worthy of a player like Yao Ming...
Just when the Rockets accepted their failure and were about to start over, the TV that had been silent finally heard a sound, and it was the familiar Barkley's crazy voice!
"Incredible, incredible, Yes's performance in this game is incredible!"
Barkley was expressing his admiration for this game in his craziest voice.
Five pairs!
Killer!
This game was truly the most incredible game he had ever seen!
It's not just him, just look at Kenny Smith, who was his partner at this time, and he is completely speechless.
This was the first time he had seen his partner look like this in a game!
Even after the game was over, he didn't know how to describe this incredible game!
"Until the last moment, James couldn't bear to kill Yes..."
Kenny Smith allowed Barkley beside him to shout crazily, but his eyes were always on the Heat's No. 6 on the court with his hands on the ground.
The player who has now become the focus of all Heat players on the court.
The teammate who stood on the enemy's side until the last moment...
For James, who had collapsed at this time and even shouted as if he was crazy.
The Heat players were in a very complicated mood.
Hate, that's for sure.
But they are not the most qualified to hate James.
The most qualified person to hate James in this game is Wade!
Watching Wade look at James, who was already collapsed on the ground, incredulously, all the Heat looked distressed.
In this game, Wade played for 48 minutes.
For James, Wade really tried his best in this game.
Not only this game, but this season, how much has Wade sacrificed for James?
Maybe the media and fans only know a little bit.
As Heat players, they are the ones who know best how much Wade has sacrificed for James!
Voluntarily being the second, every time James backstabbed Wade for Yes, Wade took the initiative to forgive James. For James, he even took out everything he had.
Humble makes Wade's fans feel distressed and his teammates feel distressed.
But what happened in the end?
What did Wade get?
What Wade got was James' repeated disregard and even betrayal!
In this game, even until the end, even if Yes scored a five-double, he was unwilling to kill Yes!
Even if he nailed himself to the pillar of shame, under the pressure and urging of Wade, them, the Heat fans, and James fans, he still couldn't kill Yes in the end!
Such a James, his friendship and loyalty to Yes are moving, and even many coconut fans who had blackened James in the past cried. When James' crazy "Ah!!!" sound came, many coconut fans at the scene really cried when they heard James' heart-wrenching crazy shouting.
It's so touching, okay!
It's indeed touching!
But, with such a touching relationship between you and Yes, have you ever thought about Wade and your teammates in the Heat?
With such feelings for Yes, how can we believe that you can stand on our side in the game against Yes in the future?
When we meet the Supersonics in the finals, will we still dare to let you play?
Since you are so loyal to Yes, why don't you take your talent to the Supersonics? !
Wade is very confused now.
He doesn't know how much pain he is in now.
Seeing Yes slowly walking to James and squatting in front of James.
Wade's face is very, very ugly now.
Until the last moment, LeBron couldn't stab the knife he gave into Yes's chest.
Not only did he not stab Yes's chest, but he also killed him with his backhand!
He was angry!
Really angry!
He really wanted to walk over now and listen to what Yes said to LeBron.
But after Yes whispered to LeBron, LeBron looked up in a daze and he dared to walk over.
"Yes, what did you say to James just now that made Wade angry and leave?"
Yes looked at Wade who was angrily leaving behind him and James who was even more collapsed and sluggish, and Yes's eyes flickered.
"I didn't say anything."
Huh?
Nothing?
No way?
Then why did Wade and James suddenly have an internal conflict?
James Harden was a little confused.
However, none of this matters. What matters is that the team won tonight!
What matters is that he will not be hung up and hammered by coconut powder and Sonics fans!
