Many fans have never experienced the "Linsanity" period, so they are puzzled by his somewhat short-lived career.
Why can a player never perform at his peak in his golden age?
In fact, this has something to do with Jeremy Lin's style of play.
Brother Hao is a typical star player. He needs to have the ball in hand and the whole team plays tactics with him as the core.
If he is asked to act as a catch-and-shoot shooter, or a auxiliary offensive player who runs without the ball and waits for opportunities to launch, it will be difficult for Shuhao to exert his full strength.
Except for D'Antoni during the Knicks era, no coach has given Hao the tactical status of "ball-handling core".
Therefore, after leaving the Knicks, Shuhao only had a stable and efficient performance with the Hornets.
The Hornets' use of him is to put him on the bench, allowing Shu Hao to become the core of the court in the transition period.
Today's Rockets are full of stars and don't have enough ball rights. Naturally, they cannot give Hao the most comfortable tactical position.
But now, the game has entered garbage time. Mark Jackson very simply gave Shu Hao unlimited firing rights, and other players on the field will unconditionally cooperate with his tactics.
With such support, Brother Hao also completely unleashed his firepower.
When the Clippers scored 5 points in a row, he immediately stood up.
With the help of Scola's cover, Shu Hao broke into the penalty area and succeeded with a clever little throw.
Looking back, Battier showed the style of a defensive master.
When he was being passed by, he used his unique skill - blind play, which successfully interfered with the opponent's shooting.
Danny Green got stuck under the basket, took off the rebound, and immediately handed the ball to Jeremy Lin.
The Rockets took advantage of the situation and launched a counterattack.
Shu Hao dribbles the ball forward at high speed, watching all six directions at the same time, observing the running positions of his teammates and the defensive position of his opponents.
Soon, he discovered that Kevin Martin had an opportunity to take action.
Although Martin's attitude was somewhat negative before, Shuhao still chose to trust his teammates and passed the ball with a flick of his wrist.
After Martin applied for a trade, his agent repeatedly reminded him that he must seize the playing time and show his worth in order to gain a tactical position with his next employer.
Therefore, Martin may slack off on defense, but he will never slack off on offense.
After catching the ball, he faked a shot and swung the defender in front of him, then rushed to the free throw line and made a sudden stop for a jumper.
Jordan, who was on defense, saw an opportunity to block a shot and immediately pounced on it.
Who knows, this is another fake move...
Martin leaned forward, created body contact and threw the ball.
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle blew and Jordan committed a defensive foul!
At the same time, Martin's shot bounced off the rim a few times before luckily falling into the net.
Two points scored, plus a penalty!
Martin went to the free throw line and made the free throw steadily. The score difference between the two sides returned to 50 points again.
In the process of returning to defense, Martin took the initiative to crawl towards Shu Hao and gave the latter a high five.
In fact, he is not a person with a bad attitude. His previous gaffe was more because he was anxious about not getting playing time.
This is actually not difficult to understand.
He was obviously in good shape and in the prime period of his career, but he found himself being surpassed one by one by his new teammates!
Faced with such a dilemma, anyone will have ups and downs in their mentality.
But Martin's mistake was that because he lost his position, his mentality quickly exploded, leaving no room for himself.
Now, he can only hope that Shen Fei will quickly find him a suitable home.
............
In the next game, under the leadership of Shuhao, the Rockets not only stabilized the situation, but also continued to gradually widen the point difference.
In the end, the score of the two teams was fixed at 158:100.
With a huge advantage of 58 points, the Rockets won their 17th consecutive victory at home!
At the end of the game, the Clippers players quickly evacuated from the tunnel.
Especially Stephenson. He put a towel on his head, ran all the way, and left the sad place of Toyota Center as soon as possible.
At the same time, in the private room, a system notification sounded in Shen Fei's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the system task - breaking and then standing again!"
"Task reward: 1 billion US dollars, being distributed, please pay attention to check..."
Shen Fei felt like hearing fairy music, and the corners of his mouth curved up with a smile of joy.
As a result, his total assets have reached 4 billion and 10 million U.S. dollars, making him a wealthy man.
[The next step is to go to Alexander for a showdown.]
[Although the people closest to the water get the moon first, they still have to rush to get the upper hand in negotiations before others do.]
Shen Fei thought in his heart.
Just do it if you think of it!
The Asian young man immediately left the arena and drove to Alexander's office.
............
Half an hour later, Shen Fei and Alexander sat face to face.
"You said you want to acquire the Rockets?"
Alexander repeated what Shen Fei just said with a surprised look on his face.
"Um."
The Asian young man nodded.
"Shen, I admire you very much, but I must say that in business, I only focus on interests and will not mix any personal feelings."
"If your offer is much lower than others, I won't even consider selling the team to you."
Alexander said seriously.
He didn't know much about Shen Fei, he only knew that he was a top student and had a deep understanding of basketball, so he hired him as the team manager.
As for Shen Fei's financial resources, Alexander has not investigated it, so he naturally doesn't know.
But he believed that a young man in his early twenties would definitely not have much wealth.
"The previous valuation set by team executives was 3.5 billion, right..."
"I can pay in full at this price."
Shen Fei said lightly.
He is confident that looking around the world, few people can make such a generous bid.
There is no haggling, no price game, just simply accept the other party's offer directly.
And...pay in full!
This is definitely a fatal temptation for Alexander, who has difficulty with capital turnover!
"are you serious?"
Alexander confirmed again.
Shen Fei nodded.
Alexander almost nodded in agreement.
But after all, he is an old man who has been in the business world for decades, and he still has no upper hand at this moment.
"Shen, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the price of 3.5 billion is a huge sum of money no matter where you put it."
"You... let me put it bluntly, how do you prove that you have such a net worth?"
Alexander looked at Shen Fei with bright eyes.
The Asian young man didn't hesitate and took out a black card from his pocket and handed it over.
Alexander took a closer look, and his pupils suddenly trembled!
