In a luxury clubhouse in the suburbs of Houston, Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta was frowning. He was definitely in a bad mood at the moment.
From the perspective of team operations and management, he definitely does not want to fire Morey, because Morey does have good professional abilities.
However, from the perspective of whether the team can bring appreciation or shrinkage to his assets, he must fire Morey.
Who let that idiot choose to fight with the bayonet?
To Tilman Fertitta, that was simply idiotic.
Everyone knows how important the Chinese market is to the Houston Rockets, but all these good conditions were ruined by Morey.
From the beginning of this season to now, the team's attendance has been declining, and it is obvious that the online attention is not much better either.
Especially the broadcast of games from China. Before this incident happened, the Houston Rockets were the most broadcast team in the Chinese market.
This is just one aspect.
On the other hand, many sponsors from China have successively terminated their commercial cooperation with the team.
Tilman Fertitta understands that of course there is a reason for the Bayonet's success in the Dallas Mavericks, but it is undeniable that this is also the result of Morey's idiot, which is very disappointing.
as a result of.
So, he must fire Morey.
But what worries him now is, is it too late?
After he fired Morey, Tilman Fertitta was not confident whether this bad trend could be reversed. He felt that all this was really a pity.
However, when he was looking sad, he thought of someone who might be able to help him. Then, Tilman Fertitta made a phone call to Beijing, China.
…………
The Houston Rockets Toyota Center, an arena whose attendance this season can only be described as bleak, has a very good attendance tonight.
But many people also know very well that many of the fans who came to the scene today are not actually here to cheer for the Houston Rockets. They are actually here to cheer for the Bayonet. Who knows that they are all Chinese.
After the entrance ceremony, this much-anticipated game officially began.
DeAndre Jordan helped the Mavericks get the ball to initiate the attack during the jump ball.
The basketball naturally came into the hands of Luka Doncic. To be honest, from Jiang Hao's perspective, Luka Doncic will face a strong challenge in tonight's game.
Because the player he is playing against is Chris Paul, although Jiang Hao hates this guy Chris Paul, sometimes, he has to admit that there is still something good about this guy Chris Paul.
When the immature Luka Doncic faced off against Chris Paul, who had been struggling in the league for many years and also liked to use small moves in the game, Jiang Hao was really worried about Luka Doncic.
Fortunately, Luka Doncic has a composure that other rookies in the same class do not have, which makes his life slightly easier when facing experienced players like Chris Paul.
Harris Barnes' mid-range shot helped the Mavericks score the first 2 points.
Turning around is the Houston Rockets' offense. After Chris Paul advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, he immediately found Capela inside. He knew very well that facing a team like the Dallas Mavericks, he must try to
Open up the situation in the paint.
He is very familiar with his former teammate DeAndre Jordan, so of course he knows some of DeAndre Jordan's defensive habits.
He just gave Capela a lob. His original intention was to hope that Capela would shoot directly, because this would give him a chance to hit.
But Capela didn't understand what he meant. After getting the ball, he didn't take a decisive shot immediately. Instead, he tried to hit DeAndre Jordan with his back.
After Chris Paul saw Capela's move, he immediately sighed helplessly.
Because he already knew the results of this wave of attacks.
Although he knows that Capela has been polishing his offensive skills this season, his level is still difficult to get into. And who is DeAndre Jordan?
He is the absolute dominant defensive player in the interior. It is simply wishful thinking to successfully beat him from behind.
Chris Paul felt that there was something wrong with Capela's thinking. He might have imagined himself as Anthony Davis for a moment.
"Don't hesitate, use your body and take action immediately"
Commanding his teammates during the game is a habit that Chris Paul has retained for so many years in his career. As a point guard, in fact, it is very important to have this.
On the way back to defense, Capela nodded randomly after hearing Chris Paul's arrangement.
Obviously, he accepted Chris Paul's command very calmly.
But this trick may not be suitable for all players.
For example, James Harden hates Chris Paul's habit very much. He has never wanted to be directed by others during the game.
James Harden is very confident. He feels that he has the rhythm to play and he is a top superstar, so he does not need to listen to Chris Paul.
With the Mavericks having the ball, Luka Doncic gave the basketball to Jiang Hao, and Jiang Hao then successfully scored the first 2 points of tonight's game with an elegant shot.
For Jiang Hao, he has been in the process of continuous growth so far this season. When people discuss how outstanding Luka Doncic is, they must not forget that Jiang Hao is only a second-year rookie.
.
James Harden's step-back three-pointer is definitely his signature, so even though Harris-Barnes tried 100% to defend, he was still successfully scored by James Harden.
At the beginning of the first quarter, it seemed that both teams had high shooting percentages, and there was no one-sided situation.

"Yao, you are a famous player in the history of the Houston Rockets. I know you have feelings for this team. And now, I also know that you are the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association. So, I mean, that idiot in Morey has already
In the case of being fired, can the relationship between the Houston Rockets and Chinese fans be restored to what it was before?"
Tilman Fertitta finally got through to Yao Ming. Although he is the new owner of the Houston Rockets, this does not prevent him from using the fact that Yao Ming has played for the Houston Rockets for many years to play the emotional card. He knows that Yao Ming is
A very popular public figure in China is now the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, so communicating with Yao Ming will yield some benefits.
