Chapter 236

Chapter 236

In Texas, in the southwestern United States, there is a great city, a city first mentioned by man when he first set foot on the surface of the moon.This city is naturally the famous "Space City" - Houston.

However, for the vast majority of Chinese people, the reason why they are not unfamiliar with this city is not because this city is a world-renowned aerospace city.

On the contrary, the reason why most Chinese, especially NBA fans know that there is a city of Houston on this earth is because of a great team in this city——

Houston Rockets!

In the previous nine years, the NBA complex of most Chinese fans was all maintained on this team.

It's just because, during these nine years, a giant from the East once fought desperately on the court here and wrote a legend of his own.

He is Yao Ming, the senior Yao Ming whom Xu promises to respect all the time.

And just before this season, Yao Ming announced his retirement due to injury.

Before Xu Nuo entered the NBA, he had always hoped in his heart that he would be able to play against senior Yao Ming in the NBA arena.And because of Yao Ming's retirement, Xu Nuo lost this opportunity forever. For this reason, Xu Nuo has always felt very regretful in his heart.

Because of this, when Xu promised to follow his Indiana Pacers teammates into the Toyota Center, the home stadium of the Houston Rockets, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

A sense of right and wrong.

A feeling of emptiness.

This feeling has always existed in Xu Nuo's body, and quickly spread to Xu Nuo's whole body.

And, the longer the promise stays in the arena, the stronger that feeling becomes.

Xu Nuo stood up from his chair and looked at the Houston Rockets players who were walking onto the court.

Point guard Goran Dragic, shooting guard Kevin Martin, small forward Chandler Parsons, power forward Luis Scola and center Samuel Dalembert.

Besides power forward Luis Scola, which other player was a member of the Houston Rockets in the Yao Ming era?

Most of Yao Ming's teammates in the Houston Rockets are now separated.

Tracy McGrady is now in the Atlanta Hawks, playing the residual heat of a veteran, while still working towards the goal of reaching the first round of the playoffs.

The former captain Chuck Hayes accepted the contract offer from the Sacramento Kings and left the Houston Rockets. Since then, the Houston Rockets have no more Hayes.However, Chuck Hayes' life with the Sacramento Kings doesn't seem to be going his way.

Ron Artest, who has changed his name to Metta World Peace, seems to have become more brain-dead than he was in the Houston Rockets, although he is the only player among those Houston Rockets players to win the NBA championship.But anyway, Ron Artest can still play in the Los Angeles Lakers, whether he is popular with the fans or not.

Another captain, Sean Battier, left after six years with the Houston Rockets and is now the leader of the Miami Heat's locker room, assisting the Miami Big Three.It looks like Shane Battier is closer to a championship now than he was with the Houston Rockets.

In addition, there is Dikembe Mutombo who has retired, and Juwan Howard, who is in a semi-retired state and is dubbed "Uncle Huo" by Chinese fans...

Xu Nuo, caught in the memory, couldn't help looking at Luis Scola across the court, Xu Nuo even wanted to go over and have a good chat with Luis Scola, after all, Luis Scola was the only player in the Yao Ming era. Houston Rockets player.

At this moment, Danny Granger came over and patted Xu Nuo on the back.

"What are you thinking about?" Danny Granger said to Xu Nuo, "Hurry up and get ready for the match, it's about to start."

Xu Nuo looked at the on-duty referee Michael Smith who walked to the center of the court with the ball, and nodded silently.

"What's wrong with this kid tonight?" Danny Granger looked at Xu Nuo and thought in his heart, "I feel that this kid is different from usual."

Even when the referee Michael Smith walked to the center of the court with the ball in his hand to start the game, Xu Nuo couldn't fully focus on the game that was about to start.It can be said that the attention promised now is still in the Toyota Center itself, as well as in the memory...

Roy Hibbert and Samuel Dalembert approach the center circle for the opening jump ball.Only then did Xu Nuo realize that he should stand near the free throw line. Xu Nuo came to his position and looked at the players standing in the middle of the court.

Darren Collison is committed to another starting point guard role for the Indiana Pacers as his ankle injury hasn't improved much.However, at this time, the abnormality of the promise has attracted the attention of Coach Larry Brown.

"What's wrong with promising this kid?" Coach Larry Brown looked at the promise on the court and thought to himself.

The on-duty referee Michael Smith threw the ball in his hand high into the air. Roy Hibbert defeated the Rockets center Samuel Dalembert by virtue of his explosive power and bouncing advantages. At the opening jump ball, the ball came to Xu Nuo.

"I must concentrate on the game!" Xu Nuo said to himself in his heart.

At this time, not only Danny Granger and coach Larry Brown, but even the promised opponents have already discovered the abnormality of the promise.

"It looks like this kid is in a bad state tonight." Goran Dragic thought so.

As soon as Xu Nuo began to dribble forward, Goran Dragic suddenly started, trying to break the ball in Xu Nuo's hand.Although the promised state at this time is mediocre, his reaction speed is still there.At the moment when Goran Dragic was about to touch the ball, Xu Nuo turned around and avoided Goran Dragic's steal.

Even so, Xu Nuo was shocked into a cold sweat.

"It's dangerous!" Xu Nuo thought.

"Promise, pass the ball quickly!" Danny Granger shouted at Promise in the frontcourt, "If you don't pass the ball again, eight seconds will be up!"

Hearing what Danny Granger said, Xu Nuo hastily handed the ball in his hand to power forward David West, and he began to wander back and forth outside the three-point line.

At this time Danny Granger used the screen of center Roy Hibbert to get rid of the defense and took the ball from David West.Faced with Chandler Parsons and Luis Scola's double block, Danny Granger had to choose to pass the ball instead of attacking rashly.

The direction of Danny Granger's pass is Xu Nuo standing outside the three-point line, because there is no one defending in front of Xu Nuo at this time, it seems that Goran Dragic sees Xu Nuo's poor form tonight. Didn't put much focus on defensive commitments.Originally, this was a good opportunity for an open three-pointer. In the past, Xu Nuo often hit a three-pointer under such circumstances, but this time, Xu Nuo actually let the ball slip out of his hands.

"What are you doing there!" Danny Granger seemed really angry, and roared at the promise.

Xu Nuo looked at his hands, but didn't seem to hear Danny Granger's roar. "Maybe he should be replaced earlier." Coach Larry Brown looked at Xu Nuo and thought.

And Coach Larry Brown did so quickly. After less than 3 minutes of the game, Coach Larry Brown replaced Xu with OJ Mayo.Xu Nuo sat down in the chair and closed his eyes tightly.

"What am I doing?" Xu Nuo said in his heart.

Coach Larry Brown turned his head and looked at Commitment sitting on the bench.

"Calm down, promise!" Coach Larry Brown thought.

"Why do I always think about the past?" Xu Nuo said in his heart, "Why should I stay in the memory, but now I am in the game...

"Things that have passed, let it pass, no matter how much you think about it, it is useless, after all, people have to live in reality...

"Although the Houston Rockets team has carried my NBA complex for nine years, this team is just an ordinary NBA team, and there is nothing special about it.

"Since that's the case, why should I stay in memory?

"Keep your head up and look forward!

"At least tonight, there's a whole game to play!

"The present is the present, the past is the past...

"Reality is reality, memories are memories...

"I am me……"

Xu Nuo suddenly opened his eyes.

I am me……

Thinking of this, Xu Nuo couldn't help standing up from his chair and walking to Coach Larry Brown.

"Coach Brown, I hope you can send me back to the court as soon as possible. I want to play a game, and I want to play a wonderful game!" Xu Nuo said firmly to Coach Larry Brown.

Coach Larry Brown looked at Xu Xu and nodded slightly.

"This kid is really not easy. It took less than a minute to calm down completely. His mental quality is really good!" Coach Larry Brown said in his heart.

About half a minute later, DeMar DeRozan was fouled by Kevin Martin while defending, and Kevin Martin walked to the free throw line.After the first free throw was made, the buzzer in the Toyota Center went off.

"Substitution!" Xu Nuo said loudly, and at the same time pointed to DeMar DeRozan who just fouled.

From this point on, the promised show is finally about to begin.
