"Wen Hao?" Drexler also suddenly remembered that Wen Hao's wonderful performance in the last game, especially his unreasonable playing style of playing cards and catching the opposing head coach off guard, is still fresh in people's memories.

In the current situation, the fans at the home stadium of the Toyota Center also remembered the name, so several fans shouted: "Wen Hao, Wen Hao......"

Then, more and more fans shouted out.

McHale's face was gloomy and his gaze wandered. He wanted to compress Wen Hao's playing time today, but he didn't expect the Rockets to play like this. According to the current situation, if he doesn't send Wen Hao, the fans won't agree. Thinking of this, he had no choice but to send Wen Hao on the field.

As soon as Wen Hao came on the field, the effect was immediate. In the third quarter alone, he scored seven points and three steals. But that's not the main thing, the most important thing is that he got 6 assists in a single quarter, and the whole Rockets team was revitalized. For a while, the rockets bloomed in many places, with Da Yao on the inside and Jeremy Lin on the outside, as if they had added a scope, throwing them into the basket one by one. It made the Raptors head coach and the players tremble.

And in the fourth section, Wen Hao was even more violent. When the head coach of the Raptors told the players to take a step to defend his breakthrough, he suddenly stopped taking the ball and only fell into the low post single, and the virtual and real footsteps reappeared in the rivers and lakes, causing chaos on the Raptors' interior line. When the opponent focused on him, he suddenly started to pass the ball again, and the liberated Howard monster reappeared, and he scored 16 points in the fourth quarter, laying the foundation for the Rockets' victory in one fell swoop.

In this game, Wen Hao played 14 minutes, scored 14 points, 11 assists, 4 steals and 2 rebounds, and his efficiency value ranked first in the team. What's more, he once again became the hero of the Rockets' comeback.

In the next back-to-back game, the Rockets got into the groove quickly and kept the lead throughout the game. And Wen Hao, a player who doesn't listen to the head coach very much, only got 7 minutes of playing time, which is half the time compared to the previous games. But even after just seven minutes, he still had an impressive performance, scoring eight points and adding six assists.

In the post-game interview with head coach McHale, the reporter asked: "Coach Kevin, in the previous three games, the performance of the Chinese player Wen Hao was very eye-catching. For such a player, why would you press him to the bench? ”

"I also let him play for seven minutes." McHale replied with a cold face.

But the reporter was not satisfied with this answer, and pointed out sharply: "We all know that in the game against the Grizzlies, Wen Hao did not follow your tactics, but used his own style of play to help the Rockets defeat the Grizzlies." Although the results were good, the process was not satisfactory to the coaches. Did you put him on the cold bench because he was disobedient? ”

"Say whatever you want." McHale's tone was even more unkind.

Seeing this, the reporter was already secretly happy in his heart, he had successfully guided McHale to a certain point, and this point was exactly what Wen Hao cared about. Once Wen Hao couldn't help but get angry on the spot, then he had to write. Even if he won't get angry on the spot, as long as there is some language that hints at the surname, then after his own rendering, it can also attract a lot of attention.

Thinking of this, the reporter approached Wen Hao with a smile and asked: "Wen Hao, is it really as the outside world speculates, the head coach pressed you to the bench because of your lack of execution?" ”

Wen Hao, who has been watching coldly, has already seen through this reporter's trick. Although he was also a little unhappy that McHale pressed himself to the cold bench, he would not lose his judgment of the reporter's way because of this. He replied to reporters: "I didn't sit on the cold bench, the coach let me play for 7 minutes." ”

As soon as this remark came out, the reporter was a little disappointed, and wanted to arouse Wen Hao's anger and let him let go on the spot, but he didn't expect this kid's mouth to be really tight, and he actually paraphrased McHale's words, so it seemed that the two of them were very close.

But this reporter will not give up, he rolled his eyes, and continued to ask: "I heard that the two sets of tactics designed for you recently did not have Harden, why is that?" ”

Wen Hao secretly scolded this reporter in his heart, which was obviously trying to provoke infighting in Team Rocket.

Thinking of this, he smiled mysteriously and replied: "This involves some of the team's secret tactics, and I can't answer them. ”

The reporter was completely helpless at this time, I thought that this Chinese had not been interviewed much before, there was no skill in answering questions, and it was easy to set up some news with explosive surnames, but I didn't expect that this Chinese's tone was so tight, where like a rookie who had not been interviewed, it was simply an old fox who had been mixed in the circle of reporters for many years.

In the office of Alexander, the owner of the Toyota Center, Alexander also nodded and said to the general manager Morey next to him: "This Chinese is very smart." ”

"Pretty smart." Morey said with a smile.

……

After this game, the Rockets rested for two days, December 25, Christmas.

In the United States, it is the most important festival of the year. And in the NBA, this is the hottest day of the year, because there will be a Christmas war on this day.

This year's Christmas War features three pinnacle battles. One is the Miami Heat's challenge at home against the young Pacers; The other is when the Spurs host the Clippers; In the third game, the Rockets went to the Staples Center to challenge the Los Angeles Lakers.

Since Kobe Bryant returned from Achilles tendon surgery last year, not only has his form not declined as predicted by the outside world, but it has exploded like he has experienced a second spring, averaging 27.8 points per game to shock the whole league. In addition, Nash has also been in much better shape this season. The backcourt combination of these two veterans, with an average age of 37.5 years, has made the entire league break glasses. The Lakers are now ranked second in the West, much higher than the Rockets.

Going away to challenge such a team on Christmas night is definitely a tough battle for the Rockets.

Before the stopper, in the Lakers' locker room, a reporter interviewed Kobe: "The Rockets' previous reversals, their bench player Wen Hao played a great role. Could you please tell us what you think of him? ”

Kobe Bryant replied without raising his head while wearing his sneakers: "Who is Wen Hao?" ”

This is obviously looking down on, although Wen Hao is not a superstar, but he has been playing well in recent times, and he often appears in the top ten balls, it is impossible for Kobe Bryant not to know who Wen Hao is.

In the locker room of the Rockets, Wen Hao watched the interview with Kobe Bryant and secretly clenched his fists. Although he admired Kobe's hard work and his unyielding spirit on the court, Kobe's answer made him feel angry.

Clenched his fists, looking at No. 24 on the TV screen, Wen Hao said secretly: "I will let you know who I am." ”
