As the first focus battle of the NBA New Year, this game of the Knicks Rockets is very much watched.
Of course, there is another reason why this game stands out.
Because as early as last summer, the Rockets had decided to retire Yao Ming's No. 11 jersey when he played for the Rockets.
Lin Yi's previous life, the original Rockets retired Dayao jersey had to wait for 17 years, but this life, perhaps because Dayao has quickly become a Knicks name, so in order to retain the so-called Chinese complex and a large number of Chinese fans, the Rockets in Lin Yi retired Dayao's jersey a year earlier.
I have to say that this is a fairly wise decision.
Because of Lin Yi's life, Dayao won the championship, and it is already a matter of nailing the Hall of Fame in the future. At this time, the Rockets retired the Dayao jersey, which can gain both word of mouth and a wave of feelings. What do you say? Why not?
And the Rockets chose to retire the Dayao jersey. The timing was also very clever. It just happened that they chose the New York Knicks to challenge the Rockets this game.
You know, retiring Dayao's jersey in this game will definitely make this Nirvana war the attention of China.
In addition, in addition to retiring Dayao's jersey, the Rockets have officially announced that they will also retire McGrady's jersey in the future.
Obviously, the Rockets are laying the foundation for future contract extension Harden.
what? Do you say that retiring a jersey has a hammer relationship with the renewal of Harden?
Oh, the relationship is getting bigger.
In this life, before Lin Yi joined the Knicks, why did the Knicks pay luxury taxes every year, but were responsible for funny every year?
The reason is very simple, because the New Yorkers did not give Ewing a good end, except for Marbury and Anthony who were born in New York, no one wanted to be a second gorilla.
So that's why the Lakers can always empty gloves.
Because of the team's reputation, the market, the fans ... When the team renews the superstar, it is quite critical.
Look at Wade. Isn't it because he was blind that he was kicked out of Miami?
The Rockets ’decision to retire Yao Mai ’s jersey is indirectly telling Harden that you can rest assured that we will give you the money you deserve, and we will give you the treatment you deserve. No less.
In fact, in the NBA, the amount of gold that can be retired from a jersey is no worse than a championship.
Because in the future, I do n’t know how many younger generations come to play at Toyota Center. The first thing you see when you look up is your name.
Dayo certainly deserves such an honor.
Not only because of his brighter career in this life, but when the financial crisis of that year, the entire NBA only has the Rockets making money, and the Rockets should retire Dayao's jersey.
Without Yao Ming, could the NBA be so hot in China?
Really think that the heat of the NBA is brought about by 8.1 billion honey?
On January 2, Toyota Center.
Tonight's Dayo appeared in a formal attire.
In a sense, Dayao is the protagonist.
Lin Yi, familiar with "Emotional Quotient" and "Face", gave up the process of throwing magnesium powder before the game.
Although Dayao insisted in an interview that Lin Yi was the first person in the history of Chinese basketball, but Dayao didn't know it. In Lin Yi's mind, only Yao could afford this first.
Who is the man who took Lin Yi's headlines?
Only Yao Ming.
Okay .... Now Dayao has become a fat man.
TNT TV's live commentary, when Toyota Center raised Dayao's jersey, Dayao's old rival O'Neal also took the lead to stand up for Yao Ming to applaud.
Although Harden is the cornerstone of the current rocket, do not comment on Dayao's position in the hearts of Rockets fans before visiting Toyota Center.
When the whole stadium sounded Yao Song again, Dayao's eyes began to wet.
At the end of the jersey retirement ceremony, the Rockets lined up with the Knicks players, and applauded the giant to the sidelines.
"When my jersey is retired in the future ... what kind of scene will it be?" Lin Yi thought with emotion.
...
After the Rockets successfully cheated a wave of tears, it is obvious that tonight many Chinese fans have begun to support the Rockets.
Of course, only tonight.
However, this wave of marketing by the Rockets is perfect, but no matter what purpose the Rockets retired from the Dayao shirt, this is a good thing for Dayao himself.
After the jersey retirement ceremony ended, the big screen on the Toyota Center's live screen also gave the start of the two teams tonight.
The Knicks are still all-star starters tonight for Gobel, Jokic, Lin Yi, Clay, and Dynasty Artillery.
And the Rockets side is the crazy dog lineup of Dreamcatcher, Tucker, Ariza, Harden, Beverley.
Seriously ... with the Rockets lineup, which TM is single-core?
Although it seems that the Rockets only have Harden as an All-Star, in fact, the defense line formed by Dream Chase, Tucker, Ariza and Beverley can already be evaluated as a best defensive lineup.
To put it bluntly ... The NBA has always been a data league. For fans and judges, scorers are easier to see.
So you do n’t care about iron or iron, but people have high scores and popularity. What ’s wrong? You have the ability to bite the basket.
Lin Yike will not underestimate this rocket, because in Lin Yi's opinion, this rocket is capable of competing in the western championship in the current cruel west.
In this life, Harden, who has become a good friend with Dream Chaser, likes to chase dreams very much, because players like Harden who like to play with porcelain will inevitably anger their opponents in the game, but every time they encounter trouble, they Dream will always use his Fengshen legs to help Harden solve such troubles.
In addition, after getting Tucker from the sun, the rocket has officially taken off.
Because the defensive line consisting of Dream Chaser, Tucker, Tiezha, and Mad Dog Shellfish, even if Harden opened the writing wheel in the audience, it was all right.
And this is why Harden was able to play a super-god performance in December, because Harden can fully devote his energy to the offensive end.
The Rockets and the Knicks are both Xia Ji. It seems that their offensive firepower is very fierce, but in fact, both teams can use defense to earn a middle price.
To put it plainly, data can be deceiving.
Just looking at the average points per game, the defense of these two teams is terrible.
But if you look at defensive efficiency, the Knicks are currently ranked second, and the Rockets are ranked third.
And the essence of Xia Jiba's beating is here. I can beat you to death, not because my military boxing is so good, but because you can't break my iron barrel array.
In Lin Yi's small book, the Rockets of this season have been marked by him.
Although the Warriors are strong, the Knicks must guard against the Rockets.
...
Before the game started, Lin Yi joked with Dayao, "Brother, don't you mind if I hit the rocket?"
At that time, Dayao's round face full of dregs of Hu Yao immediately frowned. "Rest assured, I was also a member of the Knicks."
The meaning of Dayao is that it doesn't matter if the two teams lose or win. Anyway, the Rockets win, and he congratulates the Rockets as the Rockets. As the Knicks win, it is even simpler, because Dayao also Isn't the Knicks famous?
I have to say ... EQ is not something that everyone has in the NBA.
Take Lin Yi's teammate Kobe in the simulation space ... These two games played in the simulation space recently, Kobe has a little emotional again, because after being challenged by the opponent for two sentences, this ratio Life and death are unwilling to play pick-and-roll with Lin Yi.
Even in the competition ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Lin Yi suffered the same treatment as Malone.
"Put away your **** pick-and-roll!" Bryant, who was heading to Drexler at the time, said to Lin Yi.
Okay, why did n’t Ao Fat kill the ratio?
Lin Yi was angry, but helpless.
But then again, Lin Yi was not abused in the simulation space recently.
For example, his mentality is more peaceful than before.
Worrying?
Oh, I'm not even afraid of Kobe Zatie, I'm afraid of being afraid?
"Good luck!" Lin Yi, who picked the pick-and-roll terminator, smiled before Gobel started the game with the dream catcher.
Without knowing why, Harden felt his chrysanthemum tight before the game began.
Because Lin Yi's gaze was always watching him.
Obviously, even if Ha Xiaofei is low-key, his ambitions have long been exposed.
"Strange, after winning the Knicks last time, I only shared my joy with Stephen." Harden felt his own beard and was lost in thought.
So, even if IQ is good, Harden may be stupid.
Because he shared with Curry his joy after defeating Lin Yi, didn't it mean that he faced Lin Yi in the face?
How could Curry not tell Lin Yi about the relationship between the brothers Taobo who slept on the bunk then.
Therefore, in order to win the first battle of the New Year, Lin Yi has been preparing for a long time.
Tonight, the fire is bound to start!
Because Lin Yi wanted to kill Harden.
...
PS: Xiuxian renewed it again ... After finishing the calf, after two days without sleep, the schedule was completely messed up ... but let's mess up first, because Ah Qin really arrived in the early morning, It will feel particularly good. Otherwise ... I will stay up all night and write more during the day? Next time, everyone can sleep first!
