Chapter 547 (1/2)
The third game of the series between the rockets and the Grizzlies is absolutely a shame for the Rockets.
38, 116 to 78. Three more points, the Rockets nearly set the team history playoff record for the biggest loss.
Three games in a row, the Rockets have been hit with no strength to fight back. Throughout the first round of the playoffs, only the heat battered the Bucks as thoroughly as the Grizzlies abused the Rockets.
The thunder battered the seventh place Lakers, but that was mainly because they lost Kobe. And bucks and rockets, are a neat lineup.
For this, link is quite sorry. When he came to the world, not everything could change. For example, he has reminded Kobe more than once to be careful and do what he can.
As it turns out, Kobe still has a broken Achilles tendon.
But it's not impossible for link to change anything. For example, after game 3 with the Rockets, link received a rumor that ”the rockets and Morey may be going their separate ways.”
In the NBA, most things are secrets that can't be hidden. After all, Alexander and Morey can't be alone all the time. As long as they get in touch with others and behave differently in front of others, the news is bound to leak.
To say the least, even if the news is not leaked, it is likely that Alexander deliberately let people ”leak” the news.
The message is very clear: ”rocket general manager position is about to be vacant, please come and apply.”
For Kobe's injury, link felt sorry. But for the rumors of Morey's dismissal, link is very happy.
He never liked Morey, even when he was a fan.
The Rockets are China's home team in the NBA, but the Rockets have benefited the most in China. Does Morey really like China and its players? That's not necessarily true.
The image of Morey merchant is deeply rooted in link's mind. It's not that businessmen are bad, but in the basketball world, pure businessmen may not be able to manage a team well.
NBA is a business, but not just a business.
What's more, now that link has gone through Morey's abandonment and smear, he is even more disgusted with the guy who only has interests in his eyes.
Seeing the possibility of a break-up between the rockets and Morey, link just wanted to clap his hands. Without him, the Rockets might have developed better.
Link doesn't know what role he played in Morey's dismissal, but he believes he is at least a fuse.
After the third game, the Grizzlies stayed in Houston. Although the world knows the Grizzlies are going to make it, they have to finish Game 4.
In Houston, the Grizzlies have shifted their focus to the clippers and the Nuggets. Both the team and the Nuggets are in training.
The clippers and the Nuggets will win, link is not sure. In the first two games, the Nuggets actually won twice in a row in Los Angeles. But in game three, in Denver, when everyone thought the Nuggets were going to get match point, the Clippers won.
As it turns out, the Clippers are not such a good team. After all, they have Paul in, and Paul's competitive spirit and Kobe are almost the same level.
Paul won't give up until he's completely killed.
Can the Clippers go back in two consecutive innings? Even link began to look forward to it.
The playoffs are in full swing, and the high-profile NBA regular season awards are being announced one by one.
This time last year, link received his first regular season award of his career, the fastest growing player.
This year, the fastest growing player award went to another player from Fresno University.
Link immediately called his good brother Paul George to express his congratulations. A small Fresno University began to attract attention because it produced the fastest growing players for two consecutive years.
Granger's injury has given the third grade George more room to play. This season, George's average playing time has increased from 29.7 minutes last season to 37.6 minutes. The average score, rebounds and assists increased from 12.1 points, 5.6 points and 2.4 times in last season to 17.4 points, 7.6 points and 4.1 times in this season.
With George's excellent performance, the Pacers also entered the playoffs this year with third place in the East!
