The Godfather of Basketball

A big victory, more important than a big victory is the process of the game.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Magic were crushed by the Rockets, like a poisonous snake that had been choked seven inches apart, with no room for turning around.

The Rockets are within reach of the golden championship trophy and the dynasty.

On June 6, after a three-day break, the second game of the series between the two sides continued.

The Rockets still sang all the way, abused from beginning to end, and it was another 20-point victory.

Yao Ming changed Howard from "Warcraft" to "Half-orc", scoring a large double-double with 36 points and 20 rebounds.

Howard's 15 points and 11 rebounds pale in comparison and are not enough at all.

The disparity in strength between the two sides is comparable to the scene where the Rockets played against the Cavaliers two years ago, and it also reminds people of the finals where "Dream" taught "Shark" to be a man 14 years ago.

"As we predicted, it's another series without suspense." Barkley smiled and shook his head on the TNT program after the game.

"But what's exciting is that we're about to witness the birth of a dynasty."

On June 8th, when domestic senior high school students were heading to the examination room, the Magic and Rockets moved to Amway Arena in Orlando, ushering in the third game of the Finals, which was also the Magic's first home court.

What made the students feel a little relieved was that even though they couldn't see the live broadcast, due to the disparity in strength, it can be described in a vernacular: another big victory after the exam.

The game started quickly, and the rhythm of the first quarter was no different from the previous two games. The Rockets established a double-digit lead early on, and Howard and the Magic's shooters still had no room to play.

Stan Van Gundy was very helpless. He directly rotated in advance to give the starters more rest time, so that they would have a chance to counterattack in the second quarter.

Such adjustments played a certain role. After Howard left the field, driven by the old Rockets players Alston and Pietrus, the Magic and the Rockets stalemate for a while.

But at this moment, an accident happened.

Pietrus missed a three-pointer, and after Sun Yue grabbed a long rebound, he accelerated past Redick and rushed forward for a fast break.

Two steps inside the free throw line, he jumped up to dunk.

Seeing that the defense was hopeless, Redick pushed Sun Yue directly from behind.

Sun Yue lost control of her body's center of gravity, and she fell to the ground at an angle, with an extremely painful expression on her face.

Artest rushed up and punched Redick, and the players on both sides fought in a scuffle, which almost caused a group fight.

When the referee managed to pull the two sides apart, Sun Yue had already been carried out of the field on a stretcher by the team's medical staff.

Seeing Sun Yue with a painful expression until he left the stage, Tang Tiantian almost went up and beat him up.

Redick was ejected, which also became a small episode in the game.

In the end, Billups played the last three quarters, and the Rockets were even better. They still won the game 106-91, leading 3-0.

Tang Tian hurried back to the locker room after the game, and the team doctor gave him the test results.

Because there was a protective action of supporting the ground with his hands when he landed, the last part of Sun Yue's injury was his wrist. His wrist was broken and he was reimbursed for the season.

Wrist fractures are relatively common in the NBA, and it takes about two months to recover, just in time for the offseason, which is luck among misfortunes.

Sun Yue was fine, but Tang Tian was very upset.

"That's not an action that should appear in a basketball game, and the league should punish it heavily." When facing the media, he said aggrievedly.

Because of this sentence, Tang Tian received a fine of 25,000 USD from the league.

But the league also heard it, and upgraded Redick's first-level malicious foul to a second-level malicious foul, adding a large fine of $35,000.

It's just that people didn't expect that the league did not impose a suspension on Redick.

Such a penalty made the Rockets very upset and protested to the league.

But perhaps out of consideration for the viewing angle of the game, the league did not make any changes to the penalty.

What made Tang Tian even more upset was that Redick chose to remain silent throughout the whole process.

No apology was issued or even taken seriously.

You must know that when Garnett was accidentally injured and the latter was reimbursed for the season, he not only went to the hospital to apologize to Garnett in person, but also published a long post on social media to apologize.

The two completely different reactions made people feel that they were being treated differently.

Because he is a time traveler, he had a bad impression of Reddick in the "Spring Festival Chink" incident in his previous life, and now that he has made such a move, he is really blown away.

Ever since he entered the league and met Quintelle Woods, who was the first to discriminate against people of yellow race, Tang Tian had seen too many such things.

In anger, the good news is that Redick has not been suspended and will still appear on the court in Game 4 of the series.

On June 11th, the fourth game of the finals was about to kick off. On this day, in the locker room, Tang Tian stood in front of his players with an extremely cold expression.

"This game is for Sun."

Tang Tian only said a word lightly, but the team members could feel the anger in his heart.

Sun Yue and most of them have been teammates for two years, and their hard work has also left a good impression on them.

Now that their teammates were being treated unfairly, they held their breath just like Tang Tian.

"For Sun." Maddie nodded.

"For Sun!"

The other team members also nodded one after another, and that tone had already turned into ruthlessness.

Tonight, they won't have any energy left.

"Tonight's game will be very interesting, because of the accident in the last game, the atmosphere on both sides is a bit tense." In the commentary, seeing the expressions of the Rockets players coming out of the locker room, Barkley said.

"Yes, they now look like gladiators in the ancient Roman arena. The Magic may not have a good time tonight." Smith nodded in agreement. This is the first time he has seen the Rockets since entering the playoffs. The whole team is so serious.

The members of the Magic team are also very serious, but not because of the accident that happened in the last game, but because of their situation.

0 to 3 behind, this is the match point for the Rockets. If they can't win tonight, they will be swept directly.

And this is their home court, they want to watch the Rockets hold the award ceremony here, watch the Rockets achieve a dynasty here, and they will become the biggest and most dazzling background board.

Just before the game started, the camera showed the Rockets' bench.

Despite having just completed the operation, Sun Yue came to the scene in a suit.

This is a great morale boost for the Rockets.

The game will start immediately, and the starting players of both sides will appear one after another.

No one had a smile on their faces, and ten serious and cold faces were just placed on the court.

The fourth game of the series is about to start.
