Suns head coach Hornacek saw the look in Dragic's eyes becoming extremely horrified, knowing that Dragic was hit by Wen Hao's pass. Hornacek understands this feeling very well. That is
When you think you are already very good, and everyone thinks you are very good, and suddenly someone ten times better than you appears in front of you, you can't defeat him even if you use all your strength, that feeling
It's very frustrating.
Therefore, Hornacek replaced Dragic and replaced him with the Suns' backup point guard. He had to make Dragic calm down, let Dragic accept this reality, adjust his mentality in a short period of time, and regain his composure.
Come on. Although Wen Hao’s passing is more enjoyable than Dragic’s
, more accurate and more unexpected. But Dragic's passing effect is not much worse than Wen Hao's, so as long as Dragic doesn't care about external things like the viewing of the pass, but settles down to pass it.
As for the ball, at least it was not completely destroyed by Wen Hao.
On the Rockets side, when the Suns called a timeout, McHale faced Wen Hao coming off the court with a smile on his face. This was rare in the past. In the past, even if the Rockets were much ahead, as a cautious coach,
Coach, McHale will not show such a smile until the game is over.
But Wen Hao was in such a hot state today that he immediately defeated Gerald Green, who had a big outburst in the Suns' last game, and then used his elusive pass that was comparable to a magician's pass.
, causing Dragic to end in frustration. How could this not excite McHale?
Howard had a chest bump with Wen Hao. He was so big that he staggered Wen Hao and almost fell down. He straightened Wen Hao upright again, showing his white teeth, and said: "Wen Hao, we got beaten today.
Chicken blood? So vigorous."
Jones said to Wen Hao: "Man, you did a great job. You almost disabled the two main players of the Suns. Where did you learn this skill? Was it from Bruce Lee?" After that, Jones even competed twice.
A Bruce Lee move.
Other Rockets players also came up to communicate with Wen Hao, only Dayao watched quietly. Thinking back to Wen Hao's fierce performance just now, and thinking back to Wen Hao's cold eyes before the game, he seemed to have realized something.
At this time, Annie and Elena, who were far away in Houston, saw that Wen Hao was performing so well, and they were also happy for Wen Hao.
At this time, the Suns put on substitutes to play, and the Rockets naturally let the main players rest, and the substitutes went up to fight with the Suns.
When the first quarter ended, the Rockets still maintained the 9-point lead they had when Wenhao left the game.
The fans at the Suns' home court are obviously not as energetic as they were at the start of the game. Although there are still scattered fans cheering for the Suns, more fans have sullen faces. The Suns fell behind by 9 points in the first quarter.
, how can they be happy?
At the beginning of the second quarter, Hornacek sent Gerald Green to lead the Suns on the bench.
Gerald Green suffered a big loss from Wen Hao in the first quarter and was sulking in his heart. Now he could play again and vent all his sullenness on the Rockets' substitute shooting guard. He was
The Rockets substitute shooting guard scores consecutive goals and uses him even more
That strong body kept knocking away Rockets players and got inside. Although Asik was inside, under the attack of the crazy Gerald Green, Asik also lost some ground and was hit repeatedly by Gerald Green.
Fouled and even dunked on his head.
In this way, by the third minute of the second quarter, the Suns had closed the point difference to 5 points.
McHale did not hesitate at this time and sent out the Rockets' main lineup. Naturally, the Suns did not dare to neglect and brought their main lineup. However, Hornacek still put Dragic on the bench. From Dragic
He could see the strange expression in his eyes, and after five minutes, he still couldn't recover.
Hornacek thought to himself: Give him a few more minutes, or even half an hour, and maybe he can recover in the third quarter.
The Suns did not have Dragic, so the offensive power was handed over to Gerald Green. When the Suns' main force came on the court, he played even more fiercely, even unscrupulously. He constantly used his body to collide with Rockets players.
Whenever there is an opportunity, he will use some small moves to interfere with the Rockets players. Under his interference, the Rockets can't guarantee the shooting accuracy, but the Suns rely on his fierce play to further narrow the point difference. At this time, there is only one difference
3 points.
But Wen Hao was watching Gerald Green with cold eyes.
When Gerald Green saw Wen Hao's cold eyes, the anger in his heart that was about to dissipate rekindled. When the Suns attacked, he dribbled directly towards Wen Hao. His style of play just now was extremely fierce, and the Rockets
Team players have been
He suppressed his momentum. Under such circumstances, it should be easy for him to beat Wen Hao again. And because Wen Hao humiliated him in the first quarter, he must take revenge on Wen Hao. He must fight in this China
He broke his scoring record.
Only in this way can the hatred in his heart be relieved.
He was dribbling the ball, his face fierce and imposing, and he stepped in front of Wen Hao in just three steps.
But Wen Hao did not flinch. Facing Gerald Green, he defended him without fear of death. Gerald Green was slightly startled, but he did not expect that this Chinese was not afraid of death.
But then a ferocious look appeared on his face: Since you are not afraid of death, then I will let you die.
He moved towards Wen Hao, and at the same time, his body only slightly changed direction. In fact, most of the force was directed towards Wen Hao. As long as he did not collide with Wen Hao from below, then the referee would not call him a foul.
But at this moment, Wen Hao suddenly moved slightly forward half a step, then shrank his body and once again got into the arms of the tall Gerald Green.
Gerald Green was rushing out from Wen Hao. At this time, his lower body was blocked, his steps staggered, and he almost fell. The ball in his hand rolled to the side again.
Wen Hao didn't even look at it, he bypassed Gerald Green and ran forward. Although his speed was not very fast, his position at the top of the three-point arc was closest to the frontcourt, and he was early
He knew that Gerald Green might make a mistake and was ready to rush to the frontcourt at any time. So now he entered the frontcourt ahead of everyone. Harden picked up the ball from behind and wanted to make a fast break himself, but several Suns teams
With all the players in front of him, he had no choice but to throw the ball upfield.
His swing of the ball was just right. Wen Hao caught the ball comfortably and continued running towards the basket.
In fact, when there is no prejudice, Harden is also a very good passer.
Wen Hao ran under the basket, jumped up without any politeness, and dunked the ball.
At the far end, Gerald Green looked at Wen Hao with cold eyes. Just like in the first quarter, the Chinese boy used that strange defense to make mistakes again. The Suns were about to catch up with the score, so
Once again, we were pulled to 5 points. This kid is really hateful. No, we must take him off the field. Even if we try every means, we must take him off the field.
On the sidelines, Suns head coach Hornacek secretly shook his head. Gerald Green had no way to deal with the Rockets point guard. Only Dragic could compete with that kid.
Thinking of this, the Suns head coach looked at Dragic next to him, and saw that Dragic was still a little distracted.
The head coach of the Suns had to shake his head again: It seems that I underestimated the Rockets kid. The blow he dealt to Dragic was too big. He will not be able to recover for a while. The only solution now is to first
Let Gerald Green take the lead for a while longer, and hope Dragic recovers quickly.
At this time, the Suns attacked again. After Gerald Green received the serve, he moved forward with a more ruthless look in his eyes. He looked at Wen Hao and thought viciously in his heart
: I must take this kid down. Once I get the opportunity, I will show no mercy. Even if I am sent off, I must take him down. No one can stop me from the playoffs, and no one can stop me from winning the championship.
.
Gerald Green's eyes were slightly bloodshot, as if he were crazy. After coming to the frontcourt, he passed the ball out, but his eyes were always fixed on Wen Hao. He was secretly calculating how to defeat Wen Hao.
Get it down.
When Gerald Green was thinking like this, the Suns had already passed the ball several times, and due to the poor rotation of the Rockets, both Yao and Warcraft had already rushed outside to cover the defense. Wen Hao also went to cover the Suns' substitute point guard.
guard.
At this moment, Gerald Green saw Wen Hao closest to the inside line, and his heart moved, and a sinister thought flashed through him. He immediately activated, like a vicious cheetah, suddenly jumped out and rushed toward the inside line.
.
Seeing that there was almost no one to defend inside, the Suns players immediately hit the ball to Gerald Green. Gerald Green received the ball, followed the trend, and rushed towards the basket with an almost crazy momentum.
At this time, Wen Hao was closest to Gerald Green, so he naturally went to make up the defense.
When Gerald Green saw Wen Hao coming over, a sinister smile appeared on his lips. He had been waiting for this moment.
Seeing that Wen Hao was already in front of him, Gerald Green took off boldly, jumped high, and flew toward the basket with extremely powerful momentum.
Wen Hao, regardless of his own safety, jumped up and tried his best to block the shot.
At this moment, Gerald Green bent his legs backwards in the air, and his knees were exposed like hard stones. Following his habit, he pushed forward violently and pushed hard.
On the neck of Wen Hao who had not yet completely taken off.
Suddenly, Wen Hao flew out in the opposite direction like a stone thrown out, fell hard to the floor, and then rolled towards the bottom line like a stone, hitting the foot of the bottom line cameraman, and then stopped.
Come down.
At this time, Gerald Green smashed the ball into the basket with great violence, fell to the ground, and roared at Wen Hao... (To be continued.)
