After the wonderful performance that night, Wen Hao was not proud of it. He went to the training hall alone and trained until about two o'clock in the night. Then he dragged his exhausted body back to his residence. He didn't even have the energy to take a shower, so he threw himself
On the bed, I just lay down and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, when Wen Hao was still yawning on his bed at dawn, his name had already spread throughout Houston. 54 radio stations and 16 television stations in Houston immediately broadcast the Rockets' seven-day report last night.
Minutes to reverse the Bobcats, and the heroes of this reversal were two Chinese, No. 11 and No. 5 - Wen Hao.
Major newspapers in Houston also rushed to report on the Rockets' reversal of the Bobcats. The focus was naturally the performance of the Rockets' Chinese pair in the last seven minutes.
The paper media are not far behind. The "Houston Post" commented: The hero of the Rockets' reversal was not Harden, who scored a game-high 34 points, nor Howard, who grabbed the most 15 rebounds, but No. 11 and 5.
No. 11 of this Chinese pair played more than 20 minutes, scoring 19 points, 11 rebounds and 5 blocks. After three years of absence from the game, this was the first time he produced such comprehensive statistics. He has proven to the world that
He is still a very good center. And No. 5 Wen Hao scored 9 assists in only 7 minutes. The two of them worked together to bring the Rockets, who were already standing on the edge of the cliff, back to life. We seem to see,
A terrifying combination that shocked the entire NBA has revealed its rudiments.
The century-old "Houston Chronicle" published a long review. The focus of the review is still the role of the Chinese combination in promoting the Rockets: The Rockets already have a modern combination of Warcraft and Harden, and now the Chinese combination has also been revealed.
Prototype. If this pair of Chinese combinations really grows up, the Rockets will have two pairs of terrifying inside and outside combinations. The birth of the Chinese combination will make the Rockets' team thickness reach an unprecedented level. It is conceivable that such a Rockets team
, it will be much easier to hit the championship than before...
Of course, although the Rockets' reversal was quickly known to many people, the role played by the Chinese team in it was only understood by Houstonians. Outside of Houston, most people who did not know the inside story thought it was the help of the Modern team.
The Rockets reversed course. After all, few people knew about the Chinese team before, especially Wen Hao. If they weren't very die-hard Rockets fans, they wouldn't even know he existed.
But Wen Hao can be proud that he can be remembered by Houston fans in such a short period of time. A player who only received a ten-day short contract has made himself remembered by all Rockets fans in just half a month.
How many players can do it? It can be said that only one, only this once.
On the other side of the ocean, in China, the news has become extremely popular on TV, in newspapers, and on the Internet.
"The Giant finally shows his power and kills with one blow", "The God-like Man, the Giant Returns", "The Giant's Career Masterpiece, Killing the Bobcat"...
Titles like this can be seen everywhere on the Internet, and major websites have placed the report of No. 11’s buzzer-beater in the most conspicuous position. ** has specially opened up a hot topic: No. 11’s first buzzer-beater in his career.
However, everyone only paid attention to No. 11, and seemed to have ignored Wen Hao intentionally or unintentionally. Although there were some topics about him, there were not many, and it was several levels lower than the popularity of No. 11.
However, on the **, a blog written by Yang Yi, deputy editor of "Sports Weekly", attracted the attention of fans. In this article titled "The Chinese Combination of Rockets Soaring into the Sky", Yang Yi wrote: On the 11th
The first kill of his career is worthy of celebration by all Chinese fans, but we cannot ignore Wen Hao's role in the Rockets' reversal. In just 7 minutes of playing time, he scored 9 assists and 3 steals, and his player efficiency value has reached 19.5.
, for a short-term contract player, it is simply a miracle. And in the last 11th victory, Wen Hao played a crucial role. After he asked for the ball, he did not catch the ball, but turned his head and missed the ball.
Entering the paint is a masterpiece. Without his magic touch, there would be no No. 11's killer shot. The Chinese combination is slowly rising in the NBA. Wen Hao is making a name for himself in the NBA...
Yang Yi is a reporter and commentator who is very popular among Chinese fans. As soon as his article came out, it also attracted a lot of attention. The fans seemed to be reminded by him and recalled that Wen Hao's performance in this game was indeed
Very outstanding. It seems that Wen Hao, who was nicknamed "Mr. Wen" back then, no longer exists, and was replaced by a Chinese guard who has already made a name for himself in the NBA.
…
In a rental house in Houston, the intern reporter who stayed up all night typed out the last word and posted another article about Wen Hao on the Internet. His article was different from everyone else's articles. Those other articles
Although he also praised Wen Hao, he mainly focused on the buzzer beater on No. 11. After all, the buzzer beater is the most exciting. And his article was dedicated to analyzing Wen Hao's performance and Wen Hao's role in the Rockets.
In today's article, he analyzed Wen Hao's performance in the past three games in detail: In the first game, he played 7 minutes and got 7 assists. In the second game, he played 7 minutes and 6 assists. In this game, he still got 7 minutes and 7 assists.
With 9 assists, this efficiency has surpassed many players with annual salaries of millions or even tens of millions.
Similarly, this article also analyzes McHale's personnel mistakes: If McHale had let Wen Hao play in the first two quarters, it would have been impossible for the Rockets to fall into a 15-point deficit in the fourth quarter. If after today,
McHale can give Wen Hao more playing time. With Wen Hao's efficiency, the Rockets will definitely have a different change.
After sending the article, the intern yawned with satisfaction, stood up, moved a few steps, and threw himself on the bed.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, his phone rang. He reluctantly opened his eyes, rubbed his eyes, and pressed the answer button. Suddenly, a rough voice spewed out from the receiver: "Boy, those two articles were sent by you.
of?"
The intern's heart trembled. He remembered the two articles he had posted about Wen Hao before. He nodded and said, "Yes, editor-in-chief, I posted them."
"***, you kid, get over to the newspaper office, right now!" The voice became more and more rough, almost making the phone explode.
Intern Harper was startled, knowing that he had gotten into trouble again, and quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, editor-in-chief, I'll be right back."
After hanging up the phone, Harper hurriedly dressed himself up and looked in the mirror twice. Then he laughed nervously and laughed at himself: "The editor is so angry, he must be firing me, and he's dressed up like crazy."
After finishing, he took one last look at the article he had just sent out on his computer, and walked out the door anxiously. He knew that going to the newspaper office today would probably be a disaster.
However, many things are not as bad as imagined...
