12 Basketball IQ
Wen Hao and the Rockets players returned to the court, he still followed Hall closely as before, not letting up a step, Hall went around and ran for fifteen seconds, but he couldn't catch the ball at all. The Hornets point guard had to pass the ball to the inside, but there was No. 11 on the inside, like a moving tower, almost a mountain that the Hornets' benches couldn't cross.
Hall glared at Wen Hao hatefully, thinking of the coach's words, he waved his fist at Wen Hao and said, "Chinese, next, don't even think about receiving the ball once." Mark my words and I'll make you cry and go home. ”
Wen Hao didn't speak, just glanced at Hall coldly, and quickly ran towards the front.
Hall really followed Wen Hao step by step as the head coach said. When Wen Hao goes to the inside line, he goes to the inside line, and when Wen Hao goes to the outside line, he also follows the outside line, completely guarding Wen Hao like Wen Hao guarding against him. For two consecutive rounds, Wen Hao didn't touch the ball once.
"Look, that Chinese seems to be being guarded by the Hornets backup point guard." One commentator said, "And Hall's method of defending against No. 5 is exactly the same as the method of defending against him as No. 5." ”
"It's true, and while he's a good contender for Rookie of the Year, he's going to feel a bit humiliated to use this method to defend against an unruly character, but it's working, and he hasn't touched a single ball since the No. 5 timeout.
"His speed is faster than No. 5, his height is higher than No. 5, and his body is stronger than No. 5, and if he uses this method to defend against No. 5, No. 5 has no way at all."
The fans at the scene were also anxious when they saw that the No. 5, who had performed well just now, was prevented like this, but there was nothing they could do, they could only cheer up off the field, and they couldn't play any substantive role.
And on the ** meager level, such words gradually increased: "I'll just say, how could Mr. Wen change his career, he is from a teaching background." ”
"Although I'm not happy with Hall, I'm even more unhappy that Mr. Wen was so brainless that he was guarded by Hall, and he got angry when he looked at it."
"If it has always been such a performance, it is better to get out of it now, so as not to lose the face of the Chinese."
When Ma Jian and Ke Fan saw these messages, they only shook their heads and smiled bitterly, hoping that Wen Hao would get out of the predicament as soon as possible. But as for how to get out of the predicament, the two of them couldn't think of it.
At this time, the head coach of the Hornets saw that Wen Hao was completely killed by Hall, he smiled slightly and sat down. Everything was as he expected, and that Chinese had no real skills except for receiving and passing.
Hall defended Wen Hao twice in a row, and he was also excited, and while running with Wen Hao, he spewed saliva in his mouth: "Boy, now you have a taste of Uncle Ben's defense, I said that I will definitely put you on the bench again." Chinese shouldn't come to the NBA, or go back to where they came from. ”
At this time, Wen Hao, who had not reacted to Hall's trash talk, suddenly had a smile on the corner of his mouth. The smile was fleeting, but it startled Hall's heart, but then it became even angrier. I've been prevented from being like this and still pretending to be a ghost? Thinking of this, he clung to Wen Hao even tighter, and he wanted to make it difficult for Wen Hao to even breathe.
Beverley, the Rockets' backup point guard, took the ball at the top of the three-point arc at this time and seemed to be about to break through to the inside, but the Hornets' point guard defense was also quite good, and he couldn't find an opportunity for a while, and wanted to pass the ball, but saw that the other players were blocked. He was a little anxious, not knowing whether to force the attack or wait and see.
At this moment, Wen Hao suddenly started and ran towards Beverley on the outside.
"To catch the ball?" Hall reacted, and hurriedly ran after Wen Hao desperately, "Don't think about it!" ”
The two came to the outside line one after the other, and Hall used a very clever method to block the middle of Wen Hao and Beverley, so that the ball could not pass at all. At this time, Wen Hao suddenly stopped two meters from Beverly and remained motionless. When Hall saw Wen Hao stop, he also hurriedly stopped.
Beverly was a little puzzled, Wen Hao's behavior was a little strange, what did he do when he ran to him inexplicably? Wouldn't there be less room for your own breakthrough?
But when he saw Wen Hao's flickering gaze, he suddenly understood, and without saying a word, he dribbled towards Wen Hao, bypassed Wen Hao, and killed directly to the inside. The Hornets' backup point guard was blocked by Wen Hao, and he could only watch Beverley score a layup to overtake the score. The Toyota Center boiled instantly.
"**, it turned out to be a cover." Hall turned his head angrily and glared at Wen Hao. The Chinese once again played him.
Wen Hao slowly retreated towards the backfield as if he didn't see it at all.
"This Chinese, in addition to being able to pass the ball, seems to have a good basketball IQ." The head coach of the Hornets thought to himself. But he is not worried, no matter how good his basketball IQ is, but his physical fitness is several notches worse than Hall, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Rockets head coach McHale also raised his head slightly at this time. This Chinese basketball IQ is not bad, if the physical fitness is better, maybe I will consider keeping him. However, his pace is simply too slow to fit the fast-paced basketball of the Rockets.
While the head coaches of both sides were thinking, the Hornets suddenly made a mistake, and after Beverley made a steal, he didn't play a fast break, but pressed down to play the final attack of the third quarter. He was still slowly dribbling at the top of the three-point arc. The rest of the Rockets pulled away, leaving room for Beverley to play alone.
However, after Wen Hao opened up the space, he did not stop there motionless to watch, but kept shuttling back and forth on the bottom line, and followed back and forth with Hall panting.
At this point, the clock was in the last 6 seconds, and Beverly was about to start. The rest of the rocket has already pulled to the left.
The head coach of the Hornets smiled slightly when he saw the Rockets' formation, they had already practiced the method of defending the last attack, first putting maximum pressure on the ball carrier, so that he could not easily break through, so that he would hesitate to pass the ball. The rest of the Hornets are staring at the Rockets so that the ball carrier will try to break through again. This time, as long as he is let in, and then all the players of the Hornets suddenly return to the restricted area to defend, so that the ball carrier will definitely be covered inside, the shooting is impossible, and there is no time to pass the ball......
And the situation on the court, it is indeed as the Hornets head coach rehearsed in his mind, Beverley is closely defended, other players are closely guarded, Beverley can not pass the ball, in the last three seconds, can only make up his mind to break through.
The smile on the head coach of the Hornets bloomed even more, waiting for Beverley to break in, as long as he broke through, he would be covered inside.
However, at this moment, the Hornets head coach's smile suddenly froze, his eyes widened, and the landing point of his gaze was the No. 5 of the Rockets.
He missed a trick.
I saw that when all the other three people of the rocket pulled away and didn't move, Wen Hao was running with Hall, and at this time, he was running in the direction of Beverley.
"Not good." The Hornets head coach hurriedly stood up and shouted at Hall and the point guard who was defending Beverley, "Watch his cover!" ”
