153 Owen plays
"In the past, Wen Hao's passing was of course also very exciting, and there were also passes without looking at people and passing the ball under the crotch, but there has never been a one-handed movement like today, lifting the ball with one hand and smashing it heavily on the ground. And that kind of temperament that seems to be casual, really like a magician. Narrator Drexler said.
"Of course, he has a lot less fancy moves than a magician, but for now, he is already the most magician-like person in the last ten years." Brad said.
After Wen Hao finished passing the ball, he turned around and walked to the backcourt, letting Jack stare at him with murderous eyes, but he ignored it.
Jack took the ball, dribbled past the midfield, and found Wen Hao, and must score one on Wen Hao's head.
But this time he learned smartly, after coming over, he first observed the situation on the field, and saw that the rest of the Rocket Team was at least two meters away, so he relieved himself and came to Wen Hao.
"Chinese, I'll show you what speed is!" Seeing Wen Hao's position slightly to the left, he broke through from the right side and flashed Wen Hao in an instant.
After Wen Hao, he was overjoyed, took another step forward, and picked up the basket.
But at this moment, Da Yao next to him suddenly killed from the side, jumped high, and slapped the ball up to the stands.
The little black bean next to him came up at the right time and smiled at Jack: "Let you see what height is." ”
Jack was a little embarrassed at this time, and at the same time looked at Da Yao's back in disbelief, and his heart was horrified. He just saw that Da Yao was still on the side, so he made a move, but he didn't expect such a big man to be able to pounce on him to help defend in such a short time, which was too surprising.
"Da Yao's block is domineering, and it has a bit of James's flavor, which is really surprising." Narrator Drexler said.
"It's surprising, but it's understandable. That jack is less than 1.9 meters, and the bounce is not very good, it is normal to be covered by Da Yao. And did you find out? In the position of Wen Hao and Da Yao just now, Wen Hao deliberately stood a little to the left, and Da Yao stood on the left more than Wen Hao, that is, he left the right side to Jack to break through. But in fact, Da Yao was already ready to sprint, when Jack started, Da Yao started almost at the same time, plus the height advantage, this can cover Jack squarely. Brad said.
"Are you saying that Wen Hao's position just now is actually a trap? He deliberately lured Brad to break through from the right side? Da Yao has long been ambushed inside? ”
"Yes, exactly."
"Oh," Drexler suddenly realized, and then exclaimed, "These two Chinese, it's terrible." Although Wen Hao's defense is not good, his brain is smart enough, and it almost didn't take much effort to prevent Jack's two attacks. Jack has always been fighting alone, while Wen Hao mobilizes the whole team on the offensive end and relies on the whole team on the defensive end, which is better and which is worse at a glance. ”
Jack was already a little annoyed, and when he heard the words of the explanation, he was even more angry. How is it possible, how can I be played around by two Chinese guys? It's simply impossible! It must have been a coincidence, just now!
With this in mind, after serving, he once again faced Wen Hao's defense. This time, he observed everyone's position in advance, and even the expressions of the rocket people were clearly observed, making sure that there were no traps or anything like that, so he lowered his head and planned to break through Wen Hao.
But just as he was about to break through, Wen Hao suddenly took a step back, making it difficult for him to complete the breakthrough.
Jack's mid-to-long-range shooting was not good, and he was restricted from breaking through at this time, and he didn't dare to shoot, so he had to press a step forward, intending to shoot after shaking off Wen Hao.
Wen Hao saw that Jack was pressing up, and immediately took half a step forward, just in time to have a face to face with Jack, so that Jack had no room to break through at all.
Jack had no choice but to take another half step back. Half a step, this is the best breakthrough distance.
But he took half a step back, Wen Hao also took half a step back, and once again opened up a step away, so that Jack still couldn't break through.
"!"
Jack scolded, the anger in his heart made him ignore it, and he was about to pick up the ball and make a shot.
But before the ball left his hand, the sound of the "flute" sounded, and the twenty-four seconds were up. It turned out that he had spent more than ten seconds observing the players of the Rocket team, and then he took a step back with Wen Hao and played for another seven or eight seconds, and the offensive time was early.
"Oh, Wen Hao actually defended Jack for twenty-four seconds once, who said his defense was bad?" Brad said.
"Yes, although he doesn't have speed or strength, he is far superior to other players in terms of mentality. The successful defense just now relied on playing with the mind. didn't make any big moves at all, just the first half step and the second half step, two or three times actually made a knight a twenty-four-second attack violation, which was really eye-opening. Drexler said.
In the words of the commentary, the Rockets continued to attack, this time because Jack had been sticking to his side, so Wen Hao did not take the ball, and directly handed the ball to Little Black Bean Brooks.
Xiao Heidou is extremely fast, his calf is like a shadowless foot, dribbling the ball straight to the frontcourt, and under the cover of Da Yao, he goes straight into the inside. Seeing that there was no chance on the inside, after a turn, he dribbled out of the three-point line on the right side.
At this time, Wen Hao had reached the three-point line at the top of the arc, and under Jack's crazy off-ball defense, he was almost unable to walk an inch without cover.
Seeing this, Parsons immediately ran over to make a cover for Wen Hao, who ran two steps to the right and finally got the ball.
Jack stuck to the defense, did not give Wen Hao a chance to break through, and his eyes were fierce: "Chinese, there is a kind of goal on my head!" ”
Wen Hao flicked the ball lightly as if he hadn't heard it, and threw the ball to Parsons, who had just covered himself and was undefended for a short time.
Parsons was naturally unceremonious, unguarded, and jumped from beyond the three-point line. The basketball streaked through the air, hitting the basket like a cannonball, splashing nets and making a crisp sound.
"Wow-"
The Toyota Center was boiling in an instant. As soon as the goal was scored, the two sides were tied, leaving the Cavaliers with less than fifteen seconds to attack.
Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown jumped to his feet at this time, stood on the sidelines and shouted at Jack: "Give me at least two points ahead in the first half, or you won't want to play in the second quarter!" ”
Hearing this, Jack's heart sank. After two minutes of control, the Rockets played a wave of 7-0, and according to the coach's temper, he should have been replaced off the court. If it weren't for the fact that there were only a dozen seconds left in the first quarter, I wouldn't have to play at all. It seems that the last ten seconds must help the team score a goal.
Jack, who was yelled at by his coach, finally calmed down and understood what he had to do. He dribbled past half court, waiting for an opportunity to break through while looking for opportunities to pass, which is what a point guard does.
When he finally found an opportunity to pass to Bynum on the inside, Bynum didn't notice it for a while, and his hand slipped and he lost the ball. And this mistake is still credited to Jack.
At this time, Jack was going crazy, but he didn't have time to be annoyed, but quickly retreated with the Cavaliers. For a team like the Rockets that is good at playing fast breaks, they can't be careless.
After Da Yao steals, he passes the ball to Wen Hao, who advances to the front court, still facing Jack's defense, and the last four seconds. His eyes searched left and right, still looking for opportunities.
Jack made a series of mistakes just now, and the whole person was almost exploding at this time. He stood at the free throw line, spread his arms and legs, and focused all his attention on Wen Hao. When he saw Wen Hao looking for an opportunity, he shouted in his mouth, wanting to interfere with Wen Hao's attention: "Chinese, can you only pass the ball?" Do you play basketball like that? It's kind of like a man, and ...... on my head."
As soon as he said this, Wen Hao suddenly jumped up and made a quick move.
"Huh."
Two point hit! The lights are on and the whistle is blowing, and the whistle is pressed for two points!
Wen Hao turned his head, still didn't look at Jack, and walked straight to the rest area with the rocket group.
Only a stunned Jack was left, stunned. He didn't expect this pass-only kid to suddenly make a move, and he was defending with all his might. He shot so fast that he didn't have time to jump to defend before the ball was in the basket. This......
Jack didn't think any further, but stole a glance at head coach Brown. As expected, Brown's face was as pale as iron, and his eyes were like knives cutting at him.
Jack was a little afraid to go back to the rest area, followed behind the team, lowered his head, and dragged back to the bench step by step.
The head coach of the Cavaliers glared at Jack hatefully, didn't say a word, turned his head to look at Irving, who was still sitting there, and shook his head helplessly: "Carey, you go in the second quarter." ”
Owen stood up excitedly and said, "Coach, just look at me." "Even a star player like Owen wants to stay on the court as much as possible.
Head coach Brown was slightly relieved, as long as Irving is on the court, the situation should be stable. But at the same time, his brow furrowed, any player, even if he is as good as James, has a limit to his physical fitness, and there is a limit to his physical endurance. If you don't care about this limit, a player is likely to be scrapped. Wasn't Da Yao of the Rocket team injured by Van Gundy in the first place? It's supposed to be rotation time now, and Irving should be resting off the court. But the Rockets' damn No. 5 forced him to let Irving play.
"If it's not the playoffs, it can't be like this anymore." Brown thought to himself.
Drexler, the Rockets commentator, saw Irving on the court at the beginning of the second quarter, and immediately laughed to himself: "It seems that Brown is in a hurry, and they sent their All-Star point guard Irving at the beginning of the second quarter." But then again, he couldn't help but be in a hurry, Wen Hao had just been on the court for two minutes, and he let the Rockets play a wave of 9-0, how could he not be in a hurry. ”
Another commentator, Brad, said expectantly: "This is the first time Wen Hao has faced Owen to see what kind of sparks the two can have......
