95 The magician reappears
At the Staples Center, 18,997 spectators wore white home jerseys, rendering the Clippers' home court into a sea of white. Such a scene can only be seen in the playoffs, but today, the audience spontaneously came to the scene wearing white home jerseys because of a big sentence from a Chinese kid. Before the game even started, the fans were already collectively chanting: "CP3, CP3, CP3......"
CP3, Chris Paul, the star of this team, the pillar and hope of this team. The fans did not allow him to be desecrated by anyone.
"Oh, behold, our mascot is here." The narrator, Hu Lawler, suddenly shouted.
Following his gaze, the big screen swept to Oscar-winning Nicholson.
In fact, the Lakers and Clippers do not have mascots in the true sense of the word. However, whenever it is a game at the Staples Center, Nicholson will be there, so he is nicknamed the mascot by the fans.
Nicholson sat in his VIP position, greeted some fans around him, and began to search the Rockets' rest area, he wanted to see if the arrogant Chinese kid was three-headed and six-armed, and dared to let out such a big talk. Moments later, he found a black-haired, yellow-skinned Chinese on the bench in the Rockets' rest area, casually scanning the field.
"Oh, that's the kid?" Nicholson couldn't help but chuckle.
Moments later, the game began. McHale, as usual, fielded their twin towers, Howard plus Asik, plus Parsons, Harden and Jeremy Lin. It's a regular start for the Rockets this season.
Wen Hao sat on the sidelines, his eyes didn't look away, he kept staring at Paul on the field. It was definitely a pleasure to watch Paul play. He's like a pitch elf, constantly moving through the crowd, but the opponent can't do anything about him. If you don't pay attention, his ball will suddenly disappear, and the next moment it will be from the hands of his teammates to the basket.
In general, Paul is also a player that Wen Hao admires, but tonight, he is going to challenge Paul. Only by knocking Paul off will he become the league's No. 1 point guard faster, and that's his ambition.
With five minutes left in the first quarter, Lawler, a commentator on the sidelines, couldn't hold back: "What is McHale doing, why don't you let that arrogant Chinese kid play?" Since that kid said he was going to challenge Paul, he should let him play now and see how good Paul is. Otherwise, in a few minutes, Paul will be out of the game, and even if that kid plays, what will there be to see? ”
"Maybe the Chinese kid was stage frightened, didn't dare to play, and took the initiative to ask to sit on the bench." Another commentator, Smith, laughed maliciously.
"I think since that kid is out of the way, shouldn't we invite him to put on a show?" Lawler looked over to DJ and blinked.
The DJ understood, and immediately shouted on the microphone: "No. 5, play, No. 5, play......"
Although the Clippers also had No. 5 on the team, that player was not on today's roster, so when the audience heard DJ's shout, they immediately understood, and the whole court shouted: "No. 5, play, No. 5, play......"
"I hope McHale won't be puzzled, nearly 20,000 fans ask their No. 5 to play, he can't keep pressing that Chinese on the bench, right?" Lawler said with a wicked grin.
McHale frowned slightly, he knew the intention of these fans to ask Wen Hao to play, and he was thinking about whether he should let Wen Hao play now. At this time, Da Yao's gaze swept over next to him, and McHale saw Da Yao nodding to him, he hesitated again, and finally made up his mind and said to Wen Hao: "Wen, it's time for you to play." ”
Wen Hao had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and as soon as the coach shouted, he had already stood up and taken off his training clothes.
"Oh, the savior of the Rockets is on the scene." A fan said in a mocking tone.
"Now the Rockets are seven points behind, as long as he plays, the Rockets will immediately overtake by seven points, and this is the person who has the ability to challenge Chris." Another fan was extremely sarcastic.
"Hey, Chinese......" Nicholson chuckled again, his laughter full of disdain.
In the ridicule of almost everyone, Wen Hao finally made his debut, and he was opposed to the opponent he said he wanted to challenge, the first point guard in the league today - Chris Paul.
Paul had heard that Wen Hao was going to challenge him, but he didn't care about it. He's not as angry or dismissive as other American players, he doesn't even trash talk, he just plays his ball. On his baby face, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry with Wen Hao. He takes the ball from his teammates and dribbles it to the front court.
came to the frontcourt, and it was Wen Hao who defended him.
Paul didn't make any feints at all, and when he slowly dribbled to Wen Hao, he suddenly accelerated, and with his excellent speed and strong body, he squeezed past Wen Hao. Wen Hao didn't react at first, but he was squeezed like this and almost fell to the ground. He could only watch as Paul went inside and threw the ball into the air, and Griffin dunked in the air, instantly detonating the Staples Center.
"His defense is like!" One of the fans laughed and shouted.
"My mom is better defensively than him."
"I'm wondering if he even knows what defense is."
……
The ridicule of the fans was merciless, and Wen Hao was overwhelming. Even the commentator Lawler laughed and said, "Did the Rockets bring the statue to the court?" ”
In this overwhelming ridicule, a faint smile hung on the corner of Wen Hao's mouth.
After receiving the ball sent by the sparks, Wen Hao quickly advanced to the front court. The rocket, except for the spark, everyone else is running forward quickly on both sides. And the Clippers players slowly returned to defense. In such a situation, with Wen Hao's speed, he couldn't play a fast attack no matter what, so they didn't have to worry.
"Oh, does he want to launch a fast attack?" A voice was visibly mocking, "The snail also wants to launch a fast attack?" ”
"It's too slow, it's too slow...... Nicholson said, shaking his head with a smile.
"The Rockets have always played fast-paced, and now they have this Chinese point guard, which is not much faster than my 20-year-old car, can he still play fast-breaking, hahahaha......" Lawler said with a laugh.
But the next moment, his laughter came to an abrupt end.
I saw Wen Hao, who was dribbling behind all the Clippers players and advancing before half the court, suddenly raised his hands high and smashed the ball forward. The basketball went through the waists of the two defenders, went under Griffin's crotch, and got into the hands of Parsons, who was already in position.
The ball came so suddenly that the two Clippers defenders didn't have time to react, and even Parsons didn't expect Wen Hao to pass the ball and pass it, because in his opinion, there was no room to pass the ball at all. But that's how the ball got into his hand.
He was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly started, and when the other party hadn't reacted, he burst the dunk.
At this moment, the ridicule just now quietly disappeared, replaced by a shocked gaze. In a trance, the fans seemed to see Magic Johnson again.
