After the halftime break, the third quarter of the game between the Rockets and the Jazz continued. Both teams were competing on the court, so there was nothing wrong with Wen Hao and No. 11. They could only watch from the sidelines.
Although Wen Hao was out of breath just now, he has recovered after adjusting in the midfield. He can't last even ten minutes in a lot of training every day. The reason why he was a little out of breath just now is because he hasn't really practiced in the past.
He was a little uncomfortable playing on the court for more than ten minutes continuously. In addition, the Energy Solution Arena is located on a plateau and the oxygen is thin, which made it even more difficult for him to breathe. Now after a period of rest, he feels much better.
Sit on the sidelines and watch the game on the court with peace of mind.
Wen Hao, his teammates, and the head coach, seeing the huge 23-point difference, and the fact that the Jazz were a weak team, thought they would win the game smoothly. But they never expected that in the third quarter
As soon as they came up, the Jazz no longer made wild shots from the outside. Instead, everyone rushed towards the Rockets inside wave after wave as if they were desperate. Especially Lucas III, who was like a red eye.
Throwing themselves at Howard again and again. Although the chance of them winning in front of Howard is very low, they have charged at Howard countless times, and Howard will inevitably foul. Halfway through the third quarter, Howard already has
Four fouls were committed. McHale had no choice but to replace Howard and let Asik come on. Although Asik's defense was not very weak, it was one level worse than Howard. The Jazz seized the opportunity.
They kept attacking the Rockets' basket, and in the last three minutes of the third quarter, they actually narrowed the point difference to 13 points.
The Jazz's somewhat dull home court finally became noisy again. The beautiful cheerleaders kept jumping and waving their arms on the sidelines, encouraging the fans. The fans shouted loudly and waved everything they could grab. The Devil's home court
There are signs of recovery again.
"It's time for the Rockets to call a timeout. It's time to rotate. They should have let the main players off the court to rest. But now McHale is faced with a dilemma. If he lets the main players off the court, the Rockets' substitutes may not be able to stop the Jazz players who are in good condition.
It is possible for the Jazz to tie the score or even take the lead. But if they do not change their main players, they will have physical problems in the fourth quarter, and the Rockets are likely to lose in the fourth quarter. It depends on what McHale chooses."
One commentator said.
"Having said that, after the Jazz adjusted at halftime, it suddenly seemed like a different team. Everyone was playing so hard, especially their point guard Lucas III, as if he was desperate for his life. Rockets
The main players can't withstand such an attack, so if they let the substitutes come in, isn't that equivalent to death?" another commentator said.
"There is nothing we can do about it. I just hope that the Rockets substitutes can gain some energy and not let the Jazz equalize the score."
Sure enough, as the two commentators said, McHale saw that the point difference was reduced to 13 points and called a timeout. During the timeout, he replaced the main players, leaving only Parsons on the court. After replacing all the main players, McHale
If you don't have the courage yet, leaving a Parsons can at least make people feel more at ease.
Looking at the substitute players surrounding him, McHale shouted loudly: "Your mission is not to let them catch up to the score, at least not to let them catch up to less than 10 points, do you understand?"
"Got it!" the Rockets substitutes roared in unison, but their roars were quickly drowned in the noisy shouts of the fans.
McHale pulled Wen Hao over again and shouted in his ear: "Use your breakthroughs and assists to maintain our lead!"
Wen Hao's eyes lit up. He was waiting for such an opportunity. Although it is not the most critical moment now, it is very important for the Rockets. And he wants to prove himself at such an important moment. Thinking of this
, he said loudly to McHale: "Leave it to me, don't worry!"
McHale was slightly startled when he heard Wen Hao's answer. This was not like the Wen Hao he was familiar with. In the past, no matter what others said, his answer was basically "hmm", but today his answer was
He was full of ambition, as if he was full of confidence, but also seemed to be a little too confident.
No. 11 heard Wen Hao's answer and saw the fleeting look of pride on Wen Hao's always calm face. He frowned slightly. This is not the Wen Hao he knew. Today's Wen Hao is really a bit...
Something's wrong.
But now there is no time to dwell on this. Following the referee's signal, No. 11 and Wen Hao walked to the court together.
When the fans saw Wen Hao playing again, the noisy shouts suddenly stopped, like a rushing flood being intercepted by a dam. After a while, they continued to shout. Wen Hao looked at the audience and nodded with satisfaction.
He nodded and said to himself: "This is true."
In Xinlang's live broadcast room, Ke Fan looked at the screen and said in surprise: "As soon as Wen Hao came on the field, the Energy Solutions Arena, known as the Devil's home stadium, immediately went silent for two seconds. It seems that Wen Hao's incident in the first quarter
After one passing five, they were still impressed. Is this the legendary aura?"
"It's true. Wen Hao's one-and-five will be unforgettable for the rest of his life no matter who saw it. It can be said that Wen Hao's one-and-five frightened Jazz fans from the bottom of their hearts.
Although they are known as the toughest fans and can attack the visiting team in any way and can withstand any blow from the visiting team, they cannot resist the fear deep in their hearts." Su Qun explained.
"It seems that Wen Hao will be remembered by all Jazz fans for a lifetime." Ke Fan said.
At the same time, on the meager wages, countless fans who were watching the live broadcast typed words like: "Domineering", "Wen Hao is mighty", "The God of Literature is coming, all ghosts get out of the way"...
Far away in Houston, in the Toyota Center office, Morey looked at No. 5 on the TV screen and said expectantly: "I am very excited about Wen's performance. I really hope he can prove his worth in this game. Our 8 million
It’s definitely worth the money spent.”
"I think so too. But this matter cannot be rushed. This is a slow process. It is impossible for a player with a previous short contract to prove anything in one game. Take your time," said this,
Alexander smiled, "Actually, I also want to see whether he can prove himself at such an important moment, even if it is just to prevent the Jazz from catching up with the score."
In two rented houses in Houston, agent Yu Song and trainee reporter Harper were also staring at the TV. Their inner expectations coincided with Alexander's: Wen Hao, prove yourself, now...
