86 Moments of Life and Death

Seeing No. 11 and Wen Hao, two words came to McHale's mind - the Chinese combination. At this juncture, Howard can't be allowed to stay on the court anymore, and his stay on the court is tantamount to giving the Jazz a big gift. Although McHale once said that he would not replace Howard when he was cut, this situation no longer allows him to do so. Although the Rockets are now in third place in the West, they are still some distance away from the Spurs in front, and several teams such as the Mavericks in the back are in hot pursuit. So the rocket can't go wrong. And if you want to make no mistakes now, you can only replace Howard and put No. 11 on the court. And the one who can make No. 11 exert his power to the maximum and cooperate with him best is undoubtedly Wen Hao. Thinking of this, McHale finally made up his mind.

Standing at the free throw line, Howard missed two free throws again, and in the end, the Jazz scored two more points to tie the score at 105 in one fell swoop. The entire energy solution arena boiled in an instant. The fans were almost pouring down from the stands like crazy, and the 20,000 people unleashed the loudest noise they could make without reservation, and that noise alone could drive the Rockets players crazy.

McHale's timeout at this time didn't work, the referee couldn't hear it at all, he asked the assistant coach to run to the referee and gestured to the timeout, and the referee then signaled to the technical desk for the Rockets to ask for a timeout. But even during the timeout, the Jazz home fans still let off their noise and make head-spinning.

Howard sat down in his chair with some frustration, still swearing in his mouth: "A group of cowards, there is a kind of real ...... that does it"

McHale didn't have time to appease Howard at this point, and he shouted at No. 11 and Wen Hao, "You two play." ”

When everyone in the rocket heard this, they all looked at the coach in surprise, and then turned to look at this pair of Chinese. In the past, when the game reached a critical moment, the two Chinese were never allowed to play, because the head coach did not trust them enough. What's going on today? The coach suddenly changed his surname?

McHale didn't have time to pay attention to what the players were thinking, he looked up to the 11 and said: "You do your best defensively, you can break down the offense, in short, we must win this game." ”

Number 11 nodded, a resolute expression on his face.

McHale said to Wen Hao again: "Wen, your task is to block with No. 11, impact their interior line, or pass the ball after the breakout, in short, don't single out Lucas III like before, because your breakthrough has been seen through by him." ”

"Well, I will, Coach." Wen Hao replied, his words were no longer full of confidence before, and instead of a cold meaning.

Finally, in the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, players from both sides stood on the court again.

At this time, the Rockets lineup is: Wen Hao, Jeremy Lin, Harden, Parsons and No. 11.

"Huh?!" When seeing this lineup, the commentator on the sidelines cried out in surprise, "Two Chinese? McHale actually sent two Chinese at a critical moment, did he take the wrong medicine? You know, in previous games, no matter how critical the situation of the Rockets, McHale never let any Chinese play, because it was said that - of course, I only heard - he did not trust the Chinese. Today, we sent two Chinese at a time, are we mistaken? What is hidden in McHale's body is not his own soul? ”

In the live broadcast room, Ke Fan saw this scene and said in surprise: "I didn't expect McHale to let Wen Shi play at the same time as No. 11 at this critical moment, plus Jeremy Lin, they are three Chinese players." What happened to McHale today? ”

"Although I don't know what happened to McHale, I know that the fans have a blessing in their eyes, and they must be looking forward to these two Chinese to see the Chinese players on the field at this critical moment." Su Qun said.

"Whether these two Chinese can bring a victory to the rocket, let's wait and see."

……

At this time, on the field, Lucas III saw Wen Hao on the field, and did not say any more provocative words, but his eyes were still as blood-red as before, and looking at Wen Hao was like looking at the enemy who killed his father. And it's not just him, all the Jazz players have the exact same eyes on him. As soon as the Rockets players came on the court, they felt a fierce momentum. In such a momentum, it is definitely not easy to perform at a normal level.

Jeremy Lin took the serve in the backcourt, dribbled to the frontcourt, and handed it to Harden. Although Wen Hao and No. 11 are on the court, after all, Harden is the boss, and he is the first main point of attack.

Harden took the ball and tried to break through, but the Jazz's defense against him can be described as airtight, and he was a double bag as soon as he got the ball. He's almost dropped to the halfway point, and the Jazz still haven't let up their grip on him. There was no way, he had to pass the ball to Parsons, who overdid it and handed the ball to Wen Hao.

As soon as Lucas III saw Wen Hao get the ball, he pounced fiercely, he didn't say a word, but his eyes were bloody, staring at Wen Hao.

The fans at the scene saw Lucas III defending Wen Hao, remembering the two steals in the third quarter, they were even more excited, constantly waving their arms, and shouting in unison: "Break him, break him, break him......"

The cries of 20,000 people are overwhelmingly directed at the same person, and whoever faces such a situation will have huge psychological pressure.

Wen Hao glanced at Lucas III, and saw that although Lucas III didn't speak, there was still a hint of provocation in his blood-red eyes, as if to say: You've been here......

Seeing this scene, Wen Hao's heart was about to surge with blood, and he couldn't wait to shake Lucas III to the ground again, and it was best to break his ankle.

But at this moment, No. 11 quickly came up, blocked the left side of Lucas III, and shouted to Wen Hao: "Enter!" ”

In the shout of the 11th, Wen Hao came to his senses, and suddenly cold sweat almost came down. He almost made another stupid mistake.

Shaking his head and throwing out the messy thoughts in his mind, Wen Hao took advantage of the cover of No. 11 to kill the inside line from the left side of Lucas III. Lucas III was already red-eyed, and desperately bypassed the 11th to chase Wen Hao. But at this moment, Wen Hao only broke through two steps inside, and his right hand suddenly hit the ground with a hand, and without looking at it, he passed to the unguarded No. 11 on the free throw line. No. 11 jumped lightly and shook his wrist. The orange-red ball spins backwards in the air like a slow-motion replay......

"Huh!"

A clean crisp sound came, and the hollow hit.

At this moment, Wen Hao turned around and looked at No. 11, and finally showed a long-lost smile on his face.

Lucas III, on the other hand, was stunned, and a bad premonition came to his heart.
