    Anthony was still uneasy after reaching an agreement with Su Xi. He found Andrews to sign a written contract directly the next day. Only then did he feel relieved and get rid of his worries. He and his teammates got on the plane to Houston.

    The Houston Rockets are one of the top three teams in Texas. In the 1990s, All-Star center "Big Dream" Olajuwon led the team to win two NBA championships. They were very strong. In 2001, the team was at its weakest, but  After the team selected Yao Ming, the "successor of the big dream" from across the ocean in 2002, the team's strength has shown signs of recovery.

    Because of Yao Ming's joining, the Rockets naturally became a well-known NBA team in China. Until Yao Ming retired, they maintained the lead in the number of game broadcasts and ratings in China, and they did not regard him as the home team of the Chinese.  Not an exaggeration.

    Anthony was Chinese before he traveled across time, so he naturally knew Yao Ming and his Rockets well. The core structure of the Rockets in 2003 was "Franchise" Steve Francis and "Old Cat" Cardinal Mo  Burry and "Little Giant" Yao Ming, supplemented by powerful players such as Cato and Jackson, are also at the playoff level in the Western Conference.

    Against the Rockets, Bzdelik did not take it lightly because of the victory over the Spurs. After the training session, he still conducted detailed video analysis and tactical arrangements.

    After a day of intense preparations, on the evening of October 31, the Nuggets began their away game against the Rockets at the Toyota Center in Houston.

    The commentators for this game are Rockets legend "Glider" Clyde Drexler and his partner Bill Warrier. While the players were still warming up, they couldn't help but start commenting on the game.

    "Clyde, you used to be a player for the Rockets. Who do you think has a greater chance of winning this game?" Varrel knew that "Glider" was the hero of the Rockets' championship, so this question can be regarded as a good idea.

    "I think the Rockets have a higher probability of winning." Drexler said without hesitation.

    "Oh? Why is Clyde so sure? You must know that the Nuggets defeated the defending champion in the opening game, although there was a lot of luck in the game." Varrier was shrewd when he spoke.  The character is clearly revealed.

    "Bill, you said it, the Nuggets' victory over the Spurs had a lot of luck in it. I think the Spurs underestimated the opponent a little. They actually allowed Melo, a rookie, to score 45 points in his debut. 45 points.  Ah, I really don¡¯t know if Bowen fell asleep, this is the most humiliating battle in his career!¡± Drexler said angrily.

    "Indeed, in my impression, Bowen rarely has such a poor defense in other games. Although Melo performed well in the NCAA, NBA confrontation and NCAA confrontation are obviously not on the same level. I think Bowen is either a match  I must have gone to the nightclub too much the night before yesterday" Warrier said with a laugh.

    "Haha, no matter what, I believe that the Rockets will not make the same mistakes that the Spurs did, and this team has become increasingly formed after going through the running-in last season, and even won six games in the preseason.  This game is the opening game, and these young guys will definitely go all out to win the game!" Drexler said confidently.

    "Beep!"

    As soon as Drexler finished speaking, the referee blew the whistle to start the game, and the fans at the scene let out a deafening roar. Since Yao Ming came to Houston, his "Shanghai Dance" has made the fans fantasize about another "Shanghai Dance"  The birth of "Big Dream".

    Anthony finally met Yao Ming when he was warming up before the game. At this time, Yao Ming was much younger than what he had seen in the videos and the media, and his body shape was as thin as a bamboo pole. What remained unchanged was that  That standard Chinese character face reminded him unconsciously of the series of "‡å" emoticons that became bluish on the Internet.

    The Rockets' starting lineup has not changed from what was predicted. In addition to the trident, the starting power forwards are Kevin Cato, the famous bodyguard in Yao Ming's career, and former All-Star player Jam Jackson. Although the latter is already young,  He is over 33 years old, but has rich defensive experience and is also the arrowhead of the Rockets' defense.

    When the game started, facing the little giant, Camby, a man with a long wingspan, was still slightly inferior, and the Rockets won the right to attack in the first round.

    The Nuggets retreated quickly, man-to-man, and positioned themselves defensively.

    Jeff Van Gundy is a coach with many years of NBA coaching experience. His offensive tactics are basically based on centers. Whether it is Ewing during the Knicks or Yao Ming of the Rockets, it is precisely because of this that Yao Ming was able to become an NBA player.  One of the famous centers in history.

    In the Rockets¡¯ first offense, after other players moved to pull away the defenders, Yao MingThe ball was caught by Yao Ming, who was much taller.

    Miller threw his hands away in frustration, but he was not too upset. When he saw the rebound was taken by Yao Ming, he retreated quickly while urging his teammates to keep up with the defender.

    Anthony wasn¡¯t surprised to see Miller miss a shot, but if he leaves such a big open space and doesn¡¯t make a shot, the Rockets will be even more aggressive in double-teaming other players next time this happens.

    Fortunately, the Nuggets retreated in time and the Rockets did not use backcourt rebounds to counterattack.

    But looking back, Yao Ming used the same tactic and hit Camby again. When the ball was scored, it also caused Camby to foul.

    Camby didn¡¯t react much, just shook his head in frustration, while Nene was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wished she could go up and do it alone with Yao Ming.

    In the opening minute, Yao Ming succeeded in both of the Rockets' offenses in isolation, which put a lot of pressure on the Nuggets' interior defense. At this moment, Yao Ming stepped to the free throw line, and the fans suddenly sang a small accompaniment.

    "Yao Ming wants his life, Yao Ming wants his life"

    The neat melody echoed in the Toyota Center Arena, which was indescribably soul-stirring.

    Anthony stood on the edge of the three-second zone, waiting for Yao Ming to come over and take a free throw. Hearing the singing, he looked up at the sea of ????red Rockets fans and couldn't help feeling a little emotional. This scene on the screen seemed familiar.
