Regarding Yao Ming's red memories of playing for the Rockets, there are too many places worth savoring:
35 seconds and 13 minutes reversal needless to say, classic in classic. From January 30, 2008 to March 17, 2008, the Houston Rockets, led by Yao Ming and Maddy, won all 22 games during this period! This achievement is also a highlight in history - second only to the Lakers with 33 consecutive wins, the Heat with 27 consecutive wins, and the Warriors with 24 consecutive wins, ranking fourth in history.
One of the few players in the league who could see the first center of the time face Howard nine times in his career, the record: 7 wins and 2 losses, Howard averaged 12.2 points + 9.8 rebounds per game, and Yao Ming averaged 23.6 points + 10.4 boards per game. It is also one of the few centers in the league who can cover the sharks seven times in a single game - the paragraph of eating and sleeping and playing Warcraft is not a product of the post-truth era.
The 2008–09 season was Yao's peak year, his seventh year in the NBA and the last relatively healthy season of his career.
This season, Maddy was also reimbursed for injury, playing a total of 77 games in the regular season, Tracy played 35 games to be reimbursed, and Yao Ming became the absolute core of the Rockets. He led the Rockets to a record of 53 wins and 29 losses, the fifth place in the West, successfully broke into the playoffs, and defeated the Blazers in the first round to successfully enter the second round.
As a result, the beautiful story came to an abrupt end, and I believe that Yao Ming did not think that the peak of this season was not the beginning, but the end - the opposite is the Lakers, and the situation is very unoptimistic in the absence of another core player.
No comment - neither Yao Ming nor his fans could have expected that when he faced this peak Lakers, it was not Kobe Bryant who beat him, but injuries. He was inadvertently hit on the knee by Kobe Bryant and fell to the ground, resulting in a stress fracture. After losing the seven major battles, the team finally failed to cross the Lakers' mountain.
Although defeat is a good reputation, it is only the wording of the loser in the end, and Yao Ming also had the idea of retiring after this.
The off-season that connects the two seasons coincides with the start of the Olympic Games. It should be noted that before the Beijing Olympic Games, Yao Ming's left foot had been fractured, and the doctor listed several sets of treatment plans for Yao Ming, and Yao Ming also made it clear that no matter what kind of treatment plan should put the Olympic Games first.
During the Beijing Olympic Games, Yao Ming led this china that was not optimistic about the continuous progress, averaging 19 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game. Led the Chinese men's basketball team to successfully reach the quarterfinals. In the face of the wheel war of the European and American powers, Yao Ming overtook the god and overloaded at the cost of his career.
The rest of the story, as we all know, turns the time pointer back to the 2010-11 season. At this time, Yao Ming has been hit by double serious injuries in the playoffs and international arenas, coupled with the increase in age, the competitive state is no longer what it was. In only 5 games, he averaged 18.2 minutes per game, had 10.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.6 blocks, shooting 48.6%, and what was even more unexpected was that he was injured again, still a stress fracture.
And this season, how high is the transaction value of Yao Ming, who has experienced injury attacks and declining age growth? What will other teams be quoting for it?
Even if he can only play five or six successful forces, Yao Ming is still a fragrant food in the eyes of many teams. The 2010-11 season ended, and it was also the time when Yao Ming and the Rockets' contract expired. At that time, several teams expressed interest in Yao Ming, including the Mavericks, Lakers, Nuggets, Cavaliers, Warriors and Nets, but these teams offered Yao Short-term contracts.
Only the Mavericks were willing to offer Yao Ming a big contract, when Mavericks champion center Tyson Chandler joined the Knicks for 4 years and 60 million, and Mavericks owner Cuban was overwhelmed by the team's starting center, and Yao Ming was one of the first choices. According to reports at that time, in order to introduce Yao Ming, the lone ranger's Cuban also specially brought Yao Ming's mentor Li Qiuping to the coaching staff of the team.
Under comprehensive consideration, the medical team invited by Yao Zhi's team at that time assessed that if it was injured again, the foot of multiple surgeries may not be saved, and the second half of the life may be spent in a wheelchair. In the end, under all-round consideration, Yao Ming's nine-year NBA career drew a stunning and slightly regrettable end.
