There are also some exaggerated ones:
"Garnett beating Love is like an adult beating a child. Did you see that when Garnett was guarding Love, he pulled out the stool and Love fell on his ass, which made me laugh to death."
When Xu Xin saw this comment, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Continuing to slide down, I also saw a few splashing cold water.
"You're excited just because you beat the Timberwolves? Look at how hopeless you are! According to me, the Rockets' problem has not been solved at all. Didn't you see the Timberwolves' little climax in the second quarter? I'll just put it here, Mike If Haier doesn't get out of class, it will be difficult for the Rockets to keep the top four!"
After Xu Xin read it, he immediately blocked it. Brother understands it every year, especially this year. Even if the Rockets really take first place in the Western Conference this season, he will still say that the Rockets will be beaten in the playoffs.
Even if they sweep eighth, he will still say that the Rockets can't make it to the finals.
Even if they win the championship, he will still say that the Rockets will overturn next season.
This kind of people are simply fake fans. How can any real Rockets fan not hope for the best for the team?
. . .
Early the next morning, the entire Rockets team set off for the last stop of their four-game road trip, Charlotte.
There they will face Joe's team, the Charlotte Bobcats.
The Bobcats have not changed their name this season, and the name Hornets still belongs to the New Orleans team.
On the evening of January 22, in the Rockets locker room.
"Jimmy, your voting ranking has risen again. Try to have a career night tonight and add another fire."
Jeremy Lin said excitedly, handing the phone to Butler and letting him look at it.
"Winning is the first priority. I don't care if I make the All-Star Game or not."
Butler said seriously.
"Look at him, he's always serious and tense, isn't he tired?"
Harden said with a smile, which means the three of them have a good relationship and have no scruples in joking.
"I'm telling the truth. My biggest wish is to win the championship for the Rockets this season!"
Butler said longingly.
"Then you are invited to be the Finals MVP!"
Jeremy Lin took over.
"Beautiful, look at his little expression, it must have spoken to his heart!"
Harden and Jeremy Lin high-fived each other.
"Okay, stop making trouble, let me say a few words."
McHale walked into the locker room and started talking to the players about what to pay attention to during the game.
"The Bobcats are not strong, but after all, it is at their home court, and they will not surrender easily. We must remain 100% focused in the first minute of the game and cannot let our opponents see hope because of slackness. "
Harden, Jeremy Lin and others put away their smiling faces and listened to McHale's speech seriously.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, win the game and go home! 123! Go Rockets!"
McHale called everyone to the center and raised his fists in the air.
"Go Rockets!"
One by one, the team members raised their fists and gathered together, shouting.
In the arena, Xu Xin watched Jordan with interest, who was sitting behind the Bobcats bench, watching Butler warm up intently.
Xu Xin originally thought Jordan would go and say hello to Butler, but he didn't expect him to do so and just watched silently. Probably to avoid suspicion.
The arena was filled with spectators one after another, which is rarely the case in Charlotte.
Of course they are not just here to cheer for the home team, Xu Xin knows this very well.
There is another more important reason for attracting so many viewers, which is to watch the Rockets stars.
Yes, with the sudden emergence of the Rockets this season, the young talents in the team, Harden, Butler, and Jeremy Lin have all been sought after by the majority of fans.
Not to mention veteran stars like Garnett, Iverson and O'Neal.
It is no exaggeration to say that the current Rockets are star-studded.
"We must also achieve a quick victory tonight, brothers."
Garnett gathered all the players together and said.
He now enjoys his status and has an extra responsibility.
"Don't worry, we won't let them last until the fourth quarter."
Harden said with a smile.
"Especially you, on the defensive end, pay more attention."
Garnett looked at Harden and said seriously.
Harden scratched his head in embarrassment. During this period, he was indeed a little lax on the defensive end, and Garnett caught him red-handed.
Xu Xin smiled and said nothing, thinking in his heart:
"Garnett is really good. With him here, Harden can be controlled."
He couldn't help but think of a joke among AC Milan fans back then, saying:
"Leo is worth 200 million, he himself is worth 50 million, Ibrahimovic off the court is worth 100 million, and the whip in Ibrahimovic's hand is worth 50 million."
The role played by Ibrahimovic in his twilight years is exactly the same as that of Garnett now.
The starting players of both sides took to the court. There were no changes on the Rockets' side. Harden, Jeremy Lin and Butler were still on the outside, and Garnett and Asik were on the inside.
After a day's rest, the two veterans Garnett and O'Neal are fully charged and can play tonight.
In fact, another veteran of the team, Iverson's physical condition also met the competition conditions, but Xu Xin and McHale discussed it, and after seeking Iverson's consent, decided to make Iverson's Rockets debut Save it for the next home game.
The Bobcats' starting lineup is very interesting. It is almost the same model as the Timberwolves in the last game.
The backcourt combination is Kemba Walker and Gerald Henderson, the small forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, and the two interior players are Byron Mullens and Bismack Biyombo.
Why does Xu Xin feel that he is similar to the Timberwolves' starting lineup?
Both teams built their teams with high-ranking rookies, but the high-ranking rookies they selected were not very good.
The two insiders of both teams have little shooting ability. Of course, the Timberwolves' Love and Pekovic at least have the skills to play in post-ups.
The Bobcats' black and white insiders are so rough that they don't even have basic center offensive skills.
The small forward is the most similar, with Derrick Williams of the Timberwolves being the second pick last year and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist of the Bobcats being the second pick this year.
Xu Xin previously thought that Derrick Williams was the second best player after Thabeet, but now it seems that this is not accurate. Between the two of them, there is enough room for Gilchrist.
If nothing else, Gang Leader Qiao’s vision in drafting is outstanding. Every time, he helps the team behind him get rid of the biggest minefield.
Xu Xin couldn't help but wonder, did Jordan choose people based on their names?
Called Michael, also called Kidd, this kid can't go wrong. This seems to be a logical loop.
Let's talk about the back line, the combination of Kemba Walker and Gerald Henderson is the Bobcats' most reliable offensive weapon.
But whether it is Kemba Walker or Gerald Henderson, they are both players whose individual offense is stronger than the organization, and they are also very inefficient.
