When no one noticed, a smile suddenly appeared on Wen Hao's lips. The confusion was completely gone from his face. He stood up slowly and looked at head coach McHale: "Coach, please let me play."
McHale, who was about to send in other substitutes, originally had no intention of letting Wen Hao play again. Now that he heard Wen Hao's words, he hesitated and finally nodded. After all, he had promised Wen Hao before during training that he could not play casually.
Then he regretted it. The most important thing for a head coach is credibility. If he loses credibility, how can he lead the team? And the point is, he no longer saw disappointment on Wen Hao's face, but a touch of confidence.
However, McHale was still not at ease. He said to Wen Hao: "You can play, but I want you to guard Bill well. Although your speed is not as fast as him, as long as you stay in position and don't let him catch the ball, you still have a chance."
Wen, although I promised you playing time, if you can't guard Bill this game, it will be difficult for me to guarantee that you will be included in the rotation in the next game."
Wen Hao nodded and said, "I understand." After saying that, he followed his teammates onto the field.
Head coach McHale looked at Wen Hao's back and had a strange feeling in his heart. Wen Hao seemed completely different now than before. But he couldn't tell what was different.
On the Wizards side, Bill had a strange expression on his face when he saw Wen Hao playing. He didn't understand. McHale clearly saw the poor performance of No. 5, so why did he still send No. 5? Is McHale crazy or is this 5
Is the account crazy? Or is he crazy? But no matter who is crazy, his current task is to torture this Chinese guy violently and let this Chinese guy know that basketball is a sport for the strong, and it is not something that can only be played with all hands and feet.
.
In the first round, it was still the Wizards' offense. Now the Wizards' style of play has been very clear. Since No. 5 is a defensive shortcoming, they will give the ball to Bill and let Bill attack from this point to defeat No. 5.
, defeat the Rockets. With this policy, it will be easy for Bill to get the ball again. There will always be teammates to cover for him.
After Bill got the ball, he smiled faintly at Wen Hao, swayed left and right, easily got rid of Wen Hao again, went inside and scored 2 points, which was his 11th point tonight. Looking back, he saw
He didn't look at Wen Hao. But when he passed by Wen Hao, he whistled proudly.
In the Rockets dugout, McHale had begun to regret letting Wen Hao play. He shook his head repeatedly. He was so soft-hearted and made such a stupid decision. Give him another minute, give him another minute, if his defense is still so bad
, just replace him.
But the Wizards head coach was smiling, still wondering if there was something wrong with McHale's brain. He couldn't see such obvious defensive loopholes. Was he blind?
"The Rockets coach's formation tonight was very strange. He first went to the Twin Towers to slow down the Rockets, and then kept their unproductive No. 5 on the court. It looked like he was killing the Rockets.
"Could it be that McHale is an undercover Bobcat lurking in the Rockets?" a commentator sarcastically said.
"Hahahaha, I like your metaphor very much. McHale's formation today is indeed very strange."
The fans at home were also excited at this time. The Wizards' lead had reached 7 points, and their momentum was greatly increased. It seemed that the Rockets could no longer stop the Wizards, at least tonight.
When everyone thought McHale was sick and Wen Hao was the biggest defensive hole, Rocket Beverley dribbled the ball into the frontcourt.
After Wen Hao shuttled inside, he came to the outside and asked Beverley for the ball. Bill did not follow. For him, it was enough to defend after Wen Hao got the ball. He believed that even if Wen Hao got the ball
It is impossible to break through him even with the strength of sucking milk.
When Beverly saw that Wen Hao was unguarded, he immediately passed the ball to Wen Hao.
Bill saw the ball flying towards Wen Hao, so he took a step forward to defend Wen Hao. But to his surprise, Wen Hao didn't hold the ball at all, but used a volleyball posture when the ball flew past.
Hit the ball back to Beverley.
The Wizards' defensive players did not expect that the ball would suddenly be passed back in less than half a second, and they did not have time to defend Beverley. After Beverley got the ball, the strange feeling that it would definitely hit the center of the basket rose again.
With this feeling, he jumped up and took action without hesitation.
"Whoa!" Hollow made a three-pointer, chasing the point difference to only 4 points. After Beverley made the shot, he turned his head, pointed one finger at Wen Hao, and shouted: "Nice pass!"
"Oh, a beautiful pass!" A commentator was a little surprised when he saw Wen Hao's pass. "Wen Hao in the previous three games seems to be showing signs of resurrection. His hands don't stick to the ball, which is exactly his style."
McHale's frown finally relaxed slightly.
Looking back, the Wizards continued to attack. This time Bill was more aggressive in his position. He used his shoulders to force Wen Hao behind him, then pressed his back against Wen Hao's chest, opened his hand to get the ball, and then pushed in
He took a step closer and staggered Wen Hao, then turned over and made a jump shot, hitting it easily again: "Did you see it? Scoring in front of you is as easy as peeing, even a man can do it." He started to provoke. Just now Wen Hao's
That beautiful pass made him pay more attention to Wen Hao, who had no longer cared about him. However, this attention was more disdain and contempt.
The smile on the face of the Wizards head coach is still unabated. Although the Rockets No. 5 passed a good ball just now, his defense is still the Rockets' biggest loophole. As long as he is on the court, the Rockets will never be able to defend any opponent.
Next, Beverly continued to dribble past half-court, and Wen Hao started to ask for the ball again. Bill had learned the lesson just now, so he defended a little tighter, and was less than one meter away from Wen Hao. As long as Wen Hao got the ball
If there are signs, he can force him at any time.
Although Beverly saw that Bill was not far away from Wen Hao, he still passed the ball to Wen Hao. After several games, he already had great trust in Wen Hao.
As soon as the ball was passed, Bill and the players guarding Beverley blocked between Wen Hao and Beverley at the same time to prevent Wen Hao from passing the ball back to Beverley like just now.
But the next moment, the two of them understood that they had been fooled. Although Wen Hao still made the same action just now, the direction changed. When the ball flew towards him, he used the volleyball action to shoot the ball directly to him.
Parsons on the left baseline. Because he passed the ball too fast, the Wizards' defensive players didn't react at all, and Parsons took the ball and started.
"Shua." Another three-pointer hit. At this moment, surprise spread like a virus in the Wizards' home stadium...
