Chapter 223 Before the game starts
After arriving in Houston, they took the bus to the hotel quickly, and after a short rest, they set off for the Toyota Center in Houston Stadium.
Since Zhao Qiang had already achieved his popularity in the first game, many Chinese fans in Houston ran over to support him.
This also made Zhao Qiang very surprised and pleasantly surprised. After all, it is very happy to see so many Asian faces in a foreign country.
Especially when they got off the bus, many Chinese fans kept shouting their names. This is true. Iverson is still a little envious in his heart. Zhao Qiang already has fans so quickly.
Of course, in 96, there was no such word as fans, it just meant that they were Zhao Qiang's supporters.
This can be regarded as the formation of the early star effect.
Zhao Qiang's two generations can naturally infer what they are thinking from their every move.
He grabbed Iverson's shoulders and said: "Man, there will always be people who support you in the future. I'm just a step ahead. As far as your playing style is concerned, I will fall in love with you when I see it."
Iverson knew that Zhao Qiang was comforting himself, but he liked to hear such comfort.
"I know, I know, now you can be regarded as the face of our team, and I won't be jealous of you."
Then a group of people entered the field.
Head coach Brown sees all these things. As a head coach, he naturally has to grasp every move of the team and the mentality of every player.
Players are so important to the team, so the mentality of the players affects the performance of the team. He must add all the things that will affect the team, and nip them in the bud. This is why he is called the iron-blooded head coach .
Fortunately, there are players in the team who can adjust their status, and that is Zhao Qiang. Zhao Qiang, the captain, is not bad, which makes Brown, the head coach, very worry-free.
It seems that it is not bad that I chose him as the captain.
After entering the arena, they changed into training clothes and warmed up in the arena.
Now the Rockets are a lineup of the Big Three, and the most annoying of them is Barkley with a big mouth.
Because this guy not only has a big mouth in his later host career, he is a big mouth now when he was a player, and he speaks quite unscrupulously.
When the Philadelphia 76ers were training, he actually took advantage of their training time to come to the arena.
The first is to check the status of the 76ers, and the second he also wants to see what kind of team the 76ers defeated the Pacers.
You know, generally when the two sides are warming up, the other team cannot have personnel present.
This is why everyone conducts warm-up training in different time periods, which is equivalent to an unwritten rule.
Just when Barkley secretly watched the 76ers back, Big Ben found out.
Big Ben immediately pointed to Barkley and said, "Guys, take a quick look at who that person is? Is he a player from the Rockets? It's Barkley!"
Coach Brown has a gloomy face, what does the Rockets mean?Now when they are training for the 76ers, do they even let players come to the scene to watch their warm-up training?
Coach Brown immediately asked his assistant coach to drive Barkley away.
After a while, there was a sound of quarreling. Unexpectedly, Barkley didn't leave, and even quarreled with the assistant coach.
Head coach Brown walked over immediately. As a head coach, he still needs to be more prudent, and it would be bad to avoid other disputes and conflicts.
Coach Brown walked up to Barkley and said impatiently: "Barkley, I don't care what your status is in the Rockets, but now is our training time, please get out of here."
Barkley spoke rudely, "You think I want to come and see, I'm just passing here Coach Brown, it's just a team full of rookies, what's there to see."
"You don't really think that it's okay if you have the opportunity to compete in a prestigious school. It's just your luck that you can win against the Pacers. I didn't say that you should take a rest and exercise your skills when you meet our Rockets. Tactics, absorb more of our experience, understand?"
Barkley's words are purely looking down on the 76ers.
This simply negated the efforts of these young men, which made Brown's temper tantrum unbearable.
What do you say is bad?He even said that these guys are now like Coach Bromp's children.
Coach Brown said very angrily: "I think you'd better control your mouth. A person like you can't achieve much in the NBA because your mouth is too stinky."
This sentence hit Barkley's pain point. Why did he choose to come to the Houston Rockets? It was to win the championship together.
In his opinion, a team with Olajuwon and Drexler is very suitable for him.
As a result, coach Brown's words poked him sorely, and he naturally became angry.
"Old guy, try saying one more sentence and see if I don't teach you a lesson."
In such a large arena, the sound of quarreling naturally reached the players' ears very quickly.
How could Zhao Qiang and the others allow their head coach to be bullied like this, and immediately rushed towards Brown's head coach.
Big Ben arrived first, and immediately pushed Barkley, "Asshole, what are you going to do to our head coach? Don't you know how to be polite?"
Now that Daben has already started, Zhao Qiang and Iverson will naturally not be watching the show, and Zhao Qiang followed afterward.
"It turns out that this is the famous Barkley. What else can you do besides doing these things? Can you win the championship?"
Barkley was ready to go up and fight immediately. Don't think that I'm afraid of you because there are so many of you.
When Barkley was about to rush up, he was stopped by a man in an instant. This man had a tall figure. Looking carefully, he was the star of the Rockets and the absolute main force Olajuwon.
Olajuwon stopped Barkley all at once. To be honest, what Barkley did was really dishonest, but at the home court of the Rockets, he couldn't let Barkley suffer.
If you let your teammates suffer, if it gets out, will Oladowan still be in the NBA?
He whispered to Barkley: "Guys, don't cause trouble. It's not good for us. If it gets out, our reputation will be wiped out, understand?"
Then Olajuwon apologized very frankly, "I'm sorry Coach Brown, I didn't manage my teammates well and caused such a thing, I feel very sorry.".
