Chapter 400 After the transfer, Yao Ming visited Houston for the first time
Finished the game against the Seattle SuperSonics.
In the following days, the Lakers played against the Phoenix Suns one after another.
Utah Jazz, Minnesota Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, Charlotte Bobcats.
In addition, due to the same division between the Golden State Warriors and the Lakers, the two teams met twice.
These two matches all ended in victory for the Lakers.
Today, the Golden State Warriors' nemesis is the Lakers.
Since Lin Feng joined the Lakers last season, the Golden State Warriors have repeatedly lost and never won against the Lakers.
The same is true for the new season. They played against each other twice and lost twice.
Golden State Warriors fans are used to it. Anyway, as long as they play the Lakers, they will definitely lose.
Against other teams, the Lakers also win.
Sitting on the Big Three this season, Yao Ming, Lin Feng, and Kobe Bryant are present at the same time, with a net advantage of 13.8 points.
This data is already very scary!
You know, it's net worth.
The three work together, and the efficiency value is terrifying. Looking at the entire league, no one is an opponent of the Lakers.
The new season is going smoothly and easily won ten consecutive victories!
After the ten-game winning streak, the Lakers will go to Houston to challenge the Rockets away.
This is the first time Yao Ming has been to Houston since he came to the Lakers.
Before the match, Yao Ming's expression was serious.
He knows that when he returns to Houston this time, Texas fans will definitely have opinions on him.
After all, when Yao Ming first entered the NBA, Houston fans had high hopes.
With McGrady also joining the Rockets, countless fans in Texas are looking forward to the Yao-Mac combination winning a championship trophy.
However, it backfired.
Yao Ming left Houston halfway to join the Los Angeles Lakers.
Although in a sense, the Lakers and Rockets are not old enemies.
However, Yao Ming's move to transfer still made many Texas fans indignant.
On Twitter, many fans abused Yao Ming, saying that Yao Ming was disloyal and a traitor.
Statements like this cannot be avoided by every player.
Especially for players at the All-Star level, once they transfer, no matter what the reason, there will always be fans raving about it.
When James transferred to the Heat, it was a living case.
Of course.
James' transfer to the Heat is not the same as Yao Ming's transfer to the Lakers.
Yao Ming joined the Lakers in a low-key manner, while James joined the Lakers with great fanfare.
There was also a national live broadcast, lest Cleveland fans didn't know.
It was also because of this kind of hype that James' reputation fell to the bottom.
The scolding by the fans made James worthless.
Later, as long as the Big Three of the Heat go to Cleveland to play games, Cavaliers fans will definitely boo James.
Now this kind of thing also happened to Yao Ming.
His face was solemn, and he didn't want to face the fans in Houston from the bottom of his heart.
On the team plane, Lin Feng sat with Yao Ming, and he could see that he was not in a calm state of mind, and he knew what Yao Ming was thinking.
"Brother Yao, are you worried that if you go to Houston, the fans there will be unfriendly to you?"
Lin Feng asked with a smile, trying to relax his tone. He didn't want to add psychological pressure to Yao Ming.
Yao Ming sighed, and said, "I'm sure I'm worried, and you know that in my situation, I have to face the unfriendliness of the fans."
"After all, this is my own request to transfer, not the team does not want me, if the team does not want me, I have no reason to worry."
"Well, Brother Yao, you are right, but sometimes, you have to learn to face the pressure."
Lin Feng pointed to Kobe who was sitting in the front row, and said, "Look at Kobe, when the Eagle County incident happened, Kobe's popularity plummeted, and his reputation was the lowest in his career."
"Running at both ends of the court and the court, Kobe at that time must have suffered a lot of psychological pressure, I think he must have survived."
"Ah."
Yao Ming nodded noncommittally when Lin Feng's words sounded in his ears.
At the same time, I have to admit that Kobe is unmatched in terms of bearing pressure.
This guy is that kind of person, the more you spit on him, the more you disapprove of him, the more you oppose him, the more he can explode the small universe in his body.
Based on this alone, it is impossible to dissatisfy Kobe.
It is quite remarkable for Kobe to be able to withstand such a great pressure and get to where he is today.
Thinking of this, Yao Ming felt relieved.
You don't need to learn from others, just learn from Kobe, and he also needs to be firm in his beliefs.
Now that he has transferred to the Lakers, don't be distracted by the outside world.
Seriously play every game well, and strive for others to watch jokes.
In the Lakers this year, if you don't win a championship, you are a loser.
"Lin Feng, thank you for enlightening me. I feel that my psychological pressure is much less. Don't worry, I will perform perfectly tonight."
"Haha, this is the Yao brother I know well."
Lin Feng smiled and said nothing after that.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening when we arrived in the sky above Houston.
There was still time for the game at nine o'clock in the evening.
At the airport, I took a bus to the Toyota Center Arena in Houston. It happened to be 08:30, and there was still half an hour of warm-up time.
When Yao Ming appeared at the Toyota Center wearing the Zijin No. 11 jersey, he was inevitably booed by the fans.
"Shit, Yao, do you still have the face to come to the Toyota Center?"
"You are a villain, an ungrateful guy, have you forgotten, when you first came to the NBA, who spared no effort to train you?"
"Who is covering you when you are being bullied?"
"These are all brought by our Rockets for you, but you are so good, your wings are stiff, and you turned around and went to the enemy."
"You're a coward, an absolute coward."
"You are not welcome in Houston, please get out of here!"
"..."
Texas fans got angry when they saw Yao Ming.
On the day of joining the Lakers press conference, countless Texas fans complained about Yao Ming on the Internet.
Secretly waited for Yao Ming to appear in the Toyota Center again, he must not give him a good face.
And this day, the fans did not have to wait too long.
Pointing at Yao Ming on the court, he forced Lai Lai.
Faced with this situation, Yao Ming ignored it.
Playing well is the key, losing is even more embarrassing.
Besides, the NBA league is originally a business field.
Since it's a business, a business alliance, what happened to the transfer?
Have you broken the law?
Obviously not, since you haven't violated the law or violated morals and ethics, you don't need to pay attention to other people's opinions.
There are many transfer players, not just himself.
"Yao! This kind of booing is my favorite, because no matter where I go, as long as there are fans booing me, my basketball potential will be fully stimulated!"
Kobe Bryant said to Yao Ming with a smile as he listened to the abuse from the fans around him.
Yao Ming smiled: "Kobe, I'm not you. I don't have a big heart like yours. Being scolded is not a good thing."
"It's okay, just treat it as noise. Tonight's game will shut up the trolls. It's not you fighting back, but winning!"
Kobe said seriously: "As long as you kill the Rockets tonight and you play brilliantly, not only will they not dare to criticize you anymore, they will recognize you from the bottom of their hearts and call you MVP!"
