The one-on-one duel between Wen Hao and Harden ended in an 8-8 tie. The Rockets players in the training hall felt dumbfounded.
Yes, through past competitions and training, they all know that Wen Hao's duel skills are at a very high level. But to what extent they are not sure, because there is no reference. Although in previous competitions,
, he has also had one-on-one duels with other players, but they were all within one or two rounds, and sometimes there was a heavy element of luck.
As for the one-on-one duel with the opponent, except for Jones, no other Rockets player has ever seen Wen Hao duel with anyone. They have never seen the one-on-one duel between Wen Hao and their boss Harden. You know
In the past two years, he has been called the most qualified to compete with Wade.
The players competing for the No. 1 shooting guard position with Kobe Bryant have nothing to say about their one-on-one abilities. They really didn’t expect that Wen Hao could actually challenge Harden to an 8-8 tie. From the one-on-one challenge just now, their performance against Wen Hao was unparalleled.
Hao finally gained a new understanding of his duel ability.
When the Rockets players were shocked by Wen Hao's one-on-one ability, no one noticed that the Rockets' head coach and two assistant coaches had already arrived at the door of the training hall.
The assistant coach knew that there was some discord between Wen Hao and Harden. Now that he saw Wen Hao and Harden dueling, he felt a little uneasy, fearing that the matter would get bigger. He had already taken a few steps and planned to stop them, but
Next to him, McHale stopped the assistant coach: "Don't worry, let's take a look."
"But, coach, they..." The assistant coach was a little anxious.
"Some things have to be resolved sooner or later. Moreover, I only learned today that Wen's duel skills are so good. It seems that I underestimated him before." McHale sighed.
"However, now they are tied at 8-8, and Wen Hao attacks first. The situation is extremely unfavorable to Harden. It would be okay if Harden wins in the end, but if he loses, Harden will not be able to lose face. With his
Personal name may not lead to anything, the assistant coach said.
"Every great player grows up from setbacks. Let's not go too far, let's just say that the current James and Durant have grown up after failure. And our Harden came to the Rockets
After joining the team, he has hardly experienced any setbacks, which is not a good thing. Let him experience it once." McHale said.
The assistant coach listened and nodded: "Coach is right."
But there was still a trace of worry in the eyes of the assistant coach.
At this time, Wen Hao had already picked up the ball and started to attack. He shook it left and right, but Harden didn't move at all. To be honest, Harden's defense is actually quite good, provided that he has the will to defend.
Wen Hao saw that Harden was not moving, and it seemed that an unsolvable breakthrough without the heart of a point guard could not truly break through Harden's defense. So Wen Hao secretly started an unsolvable breakthrough.
After using the unsolvable breakthrough, the speed of his first step increased greatly. Harden was caught off guard and was thrown away by Wen Hao. He rushed inside and ended the attack with a dunk. Nine to eight.
Seeing this, Harden's eyes became sharper. When he attacked, he first broke through to the left, then swung to the right, shaking Wen Hao three steps back, and then used his best European step to pass Wen Hao in one fell swoop with a tomahawk move
Dunk, rewriting the score to 9-9.
Wen Hao continued to attack with the ball. At this time, no one in the Rockets team spoke. The only sound of the basketball hitting the ground was heard in the training hall. McHale at the door of the training hall also watched the last one of the two very attentively.
round.
Jones was secretly worried at this time. Others didn't know it, but he knew it. Wen Hao's one-on-one ability was not even a match for the street ball king, let alone Harden. The question now is, if
If Wen Hao wins, how will it end? With a character like Harden, he will not give up easily.
Thinking of this, Jones kept winking at Wen Hao, meaning to let Wen Hao calm down a little.
Hao was in the excitement of fighting and was so focused that he didn't notice Jones at all. He dribbled the ball and started his last attack.
At this time, Harden had focused all his attention on Wen Hao, hunched his waist, opened his arms, and used the best defense in his life. He could not let Wen Hao score this goal, and he could not let Wen Hao win.
, he must guard against Wen Hao.
The sound of the basketball hitting the ground became more and more urgent. Suddenly, Wen Hao broke through to the left. Harden quickly moved to the left. Wen Hao's shoulders swayed slightly to the right. Harden thought that Wen Hao was going to change to the right, so he moved again.
To the right.
At this time, Wen Hao suddenly dribbled the ball and took a step back. Harden could no longer pounce on him and could only watch Wen Hao take a jumper.
There is no doubt that Wenhao, who has an unsolvable mid-range shot, easily hit this shot, and he also used Harden's signature step-back jumper.
After the basketball was thrown in by Wen Hao, it bounced behind Harden as if taunting Harden.
Harden, who was normally normal, suddenly became furious. He turned around and picked up the ball. After taking two steps, he jumped high and smashed it against the basket.
"Bang."
There was a loud noise, the basketball stand continued to rock back and forth, and the basket also made a trembling "squeak" sound.
Everyone in the Rockets was shocked when they saw this. The dunk just now had no technical qualities at all, but its power was shocking. Even the Rockets' usually violent Warcraft was a little surprised.
After Harden dunked, he dropped to the ground and strode out of the training hall without looking back. He didn't even say hello when he met McHale and the assistant coach.
Everyone in the Rockets was silent when they saw their boss suddenly leaving after losing. Then, under the arrangement of McHale, today's daily training began.
During training, except for Dayao, Jones and Warcraft, no one else on the Rockets dared to communicate with Wen Hao.
While training, Jones said to Wen Hao: "Wen Hao, today's duel will be a blessing or a curse for you."
"What do you mean?" Wen Hao asked.
"You beat Harden, the coach has a new understanding of your one-on-one skills, and he will use you more in future games. This is a good thing. The bad thing is that you beat him and let him play in the brothers.
If you lose face in front of you, you still don’t know what he will do to you in the future. If you offend the boss, you are finished."
Warcraft shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not that scary. It's just a one-on-one challenge. It's not like that. And even if Harden really has any grudge against you, don't worry. I'm still protecting you.
Huh?" Warcraft said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Dayao next to him said: "Anyway, you have to be careful in the future."
Wen Hao just immersed himself in training. He had never been very good at dealing with these intrigues, so he could only take it one step at a time.
