With one and a half minutes left in the third quarter, 86 to 87, the Rockets relied on Wen Hao's two consecutive wonderful passes to close the score to only 1 point. The Hornets coach had no choice but to call a timeout.
Although he didn't want to waste the timeout in the last minute and a half, once the Rockets overtook the score and gained momentum, it would be difficult to fight, so he had to call a timeout. When the players came off the court, he watched
Looking at No. 5 on the Rockets side, he frowned slightly: No. 5, it seems that I have underestimated you. However, it will not be so easy next time.
Hall frowned angrily and walked off the court without saying a word. He was indeed a little annoyed by Rockets No. 5. He clearly felt that his strength was far superior to this kid, but he just couldn't do it. It was too frustrating.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists: "No. 5, just wait for me. After I play again, I will make you look good."
After the Hornets head coach arranged the next tactics to other players, when he saw Hall's eyebrows raised, he smiled slightly and said to Hall: "Actually, it's very simple to guard against him."
Hall suddenly turned his head, looked at the coach, and asked: "Coach, do you have any idea?"
"How did he guard against you?"
Hall is not an idiot. He immediately reacted when he heard the coach's words: "Coach means that as long as you follow him closely and don't let him catch the ball, he won't be able to pass the ball again?"
"That's right, this is how he guards you. You just need to guard him the way he does. You are faster than him and have better bounce than him. I guarantee that he will not catch a ball." The Hornets head coach was confident and calm.
said.
Hall lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then said: "You are right, but are you asking me to use this method to guard against an inferior character? Isn't it too embarrassing?"
"Hall," the head coach's tone suddenly became stern, "you are still only a first-year rookie, you should always lower your head instead of always raising your head. If you can't even guard such an inferior character, who can you guard?
"
Hall was shocked when he saw the coach's serious expression. He nodded and said, "Coach, I listen to you. Just use this method to prevent him from getting a ball and put him to death on the bench."
Let him go back to China!" Hall clenched his fists.
In Weibo on **, someone took advantage of the pause to leave a message: "Is it just a coincidence again?"
"Did Mr. Wen take medicine or blood today? Can such a ball be passed from his hand?"
"Who knows, maybe it's just a coincidence."
Of course, there are also those who oppose this statement: "If the first goal is just a coincidence, then this one is too brainless, right? Wen Hao first stopped suddenly, tricked Hall into taking off, then turned around and made a direction
No. 11 passed the ball with a fake move, and finally passed it out with a concealed backhand. How could this series of moves be so coincidental? Why don't you try to do it by chance?"
As soon as this statement came out, those Heiwen faction quietly disappeared. Although they still did not agree with Wen Hao in their hearts, it was indeed too far-fetched to say that this goal was a coincidence.
Ke Fan rolled his eyes and said to Ma Jian with a smile: "Director Ma, as a former player, do you think Wen Hao's two goals were a coincidence?"
Ma Jian laughed loudly and said: "Ke Fan, your brain is not short-circuited, right? If you think carefully about Wen Hao's actions just now, you will know that neither of these two goals was a coincidence. After passing the first one
When the ball was passed, his eyes were looking at the backboard, obviously trying to use the rebound of the backboard to pass to Parsons. I don’t need to say more about the second ball, Ke Fan, I thought you were quite smart before..."
"That means I'm stupid now." Ke Fan continued.
Ma Jian nodded and continued to laugh: "If I know you are stupid, then you are not too stupid."
In the last row of the Toyota Center auditorium, an intern reporter with black-rimmed glasses was writing something down in his notebook, his eyes shining with excitement. Everything is developing as he expected. As long as Wen Hao continues to perform well, he will
He may stay on the court in the fourth quarter. It would be best if his performance allows the Rockets to defeat the Hornets. Then Wen Hao will become the focus of attention, and his article will also become the focus of fans' attention...
There is another person who is equally nervous about Wen Hao's performance, a Chinese with the same skin color as Wen Hao - Yu Song. He is Wen Hao's agent. Chinese people who work as agents in the NBA, a business league, will be discriminated against.
His relationship is not very strong. At first, he had a few players under him, but later these players thought that they could not find a good club here, so they all left. Now he only has Wen Hao,
It can be said that he is in the same boat as Wen Hao. Two days ago, when the Rockets renewed Wen Hao's contract, he breathed a sigh of relief. If his players don't get contracts, he, as an agent, will have no job.
.
But he couldn't relax completely. He had to look at Wen Hao's performance in the past ten days. If his performance was good enough and he got a longer-term contract, he could really breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, he was just like an intern.
, I look forward to Wen Hao being able to perform well, rise up, and become a true superstar. Then he will not have to worry about having nothing to eat.
During the timeout, Rockets head coach McHale didn't say a few words to Wen Hao, but nodded slightly. Wen Hao was a little disappointed with this. He didn't know why he never got the approval of the head coach. Other Rockets
As long as a player performs well, he will receive encouragement from the head coach and even a promise of playing time. But his performance in two consecutive games has been very good. Why does the head coach disapprove of him so much? Could it be that... he is not suitable for the Rockets?
How to play the system?
Thinking of this, Wen Hao was secretly shocked. If that was really the case, he would really not be able to stay in the Rockets. You must know that in the NBA, even big-name players can only do it if they encounter unsuitable play styles and systems.
Being ostracized by the team. For example, in the 12-13 Lakers season, Gasol was put on the bench and unable to play for a long time. Not to mention that he was only a marginal role.
At this time, No. 11 seemed to have noticed Wen Hao's thoughts, patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said: "Don't think too much, just go ahead and perform. As long as you play, work hard and perform well, even if it is not suitable for the Rockets.
There will definitely be a team that takes a fancy to you."
The words of No. 11 were like enlightenment to Wen Hao. He quickly understood. He turned around, nodded to No. 11 and said, "I will definitely perform well, just watch."
At this time, the timeout ended and players from both sides took the field. Wen Hao walked into the court and looked at the huge Rockets logo in the center circle. Aspiration rose in his heart just like the Rockets logo: "You all watch,
