At the end of the first half, the Rockets vs. the Lakers, 55-63.

Although the Rockets once narrowed the gap to 2 points, when Kobe Bryant got angry and took a preemptive defense against Wen Hao, Wen Hao could no longer use his virtual and real steps, and the Rockets lost their offensive firepower, and the difference was stretched to 8 points by the Lakers.

Back in the locker room, McHale looked bad and said to everyone: "In the second half, we re-focused on Harden and Howard, and we had to open them up and attract the defense, so that others could play." So in the second half, Jeremy Lin has to put the ball in the hands of both of them. ”

When Wen Hao heard this, he knew that he was out of action in the second half.

His trick is to break through, pass and virtual and real footwork, and now the breakthrough is prevented, and the pass can't be passed, and the virtual and real footsteps can't be used because of Kobe's preemptive defense, so he is almost equivalent to being scrapped, at least in this game. In such a situation, it is impossible for McHale to put himself on the court again.

Sure enough, as Wen Hao expected, after the start of the third quarter, McHale didn't mean to let him go at all.

The main lineup of the Rockets was all on the floor, and they fought against the Lakers.

But when Harden confronted Kobe, Kobe seemed to extend his anger towards Wen Hao to him and defend against Harden. Under Kobe's defense, Harden is not much better than Wen Hao in the next game, at most he can score a few points in the fast break.

When Harden was strangled to death by Kobe, the Lakers' defensive focus was on the Monster, and every time the Monster got the ball, it would be surrounded by at least two people. As a result, the rocket could not be opened inside and outside, and it was once again in trouble, and the score had a tendency to be stretched to more than 10 points.

McHale had no choice but to take the risk of pushing Wen Hao on the field again.

Although Kobe strangled Wen Hao to death in the second quarter, Kobe Bryant is already old and his physical strength is not enough, under such a large intensity of defense, his physical strength is rapidly lost, and in the third quarter, maybe the defensive intensity will decrease, and Wen Hao will have a chance. Even if Kobe's defensive intensity remains the same, but let him spend it with Wen Hao like this, in the fourth quarter, his physical exertion will be greater, and when Harden comes on the court again, he has a good chance to defeat the Lakers in one fell swoop.

Wen Hao came on the court, dribbled over half the court, and faced Kobe.

Kobe Bryant still took a step to defend, Wen Hao didn't dare to jump at will, and couldn't break through, so he had to pass the ball to Jeremy Lin, and then fell into the low post.

But as soon as he fell to the low post, Kobe's front defense followed him, giving him no chance to get the ball at all.

Wen Hao was surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect that in the third quarter, Kobe's defensive intensity was still unabated, which was really terrible.

You know, with such a lot of defensive intensity, such a high level of concentration, no one can maintain it for a long time. It's like a bowstring, if it breaks too tightly, it's likely to break.

But Bryant can, under his almost paranoid desire to win, under his anger at the Chinese, his defensive intensity and concentration reach incredible levels.

Under such defense, the three minutes after Wen Hao returned to the court, he made no achievements, even worse than the second quarter. No points, no assists, no rebounds, and it looks like he's running back and forth with the Rockets.

The commentator on the sidelines, Barkley shook his head with a smile: "This substitute was defended by Kobe Bryant and was about to go crazy." Since scoring 24 points in the first half, he hasn't scored a single point or an assist, and Kobe Bryant is terrible. ”

Harlan also shook his head: "If this Chinese wants to break this situation, he must make a jump shot when Kobe Bryant puts a step to defend, and only when the jump shot hits can Kobe's defense be changed, and he can have a chance." ”

"But shooting doesn't mean that there is one, it takes continuous hard practice, thousands of shots, to form a certain feeling. It is only with this feeling during the game that it is possible to score the ball. In my opinion, this Chinese does not feel this way at all. Legendary shooter Miller said of his experience, judging from his experience, the Rockets' No. 5 will not be able to shoot at all, at least not this one.

"As a point guard, he can't shoot, that's his biggest weakness."

……

Of course, Wen Hao himself is aware of this, as long as he can shoot, he can break the deadlock.

But his confidence in shooting on the court is almost zero. Although he can basically shoot 70% in training, in actual combat, he is not confident at all. On the pitch, without self-confidence, everything is.

So even if Kobe Bryant defended Wenhao two steps away, he still didn't dare to shoot.

Staples fans were excited at this time, this Chinese did not dare to shoot, as a point guard, he did not dare to shoot, this is simply a big joke.

So when Wen Hao took the ball and Kobe Bryant took a step to defend, the fans looked at the hesitant Wen Hao, and they would shout in a coaxing manner: "Shoot one, shoot one, throw one ......"

The more the fans shouted like this, the more Wen Hao lost confidence. At the end of the day, after he got the ball, he almost didn't think about shooting at all, and always passed it first.

And the laughter of the fans was even louder, and even the actor Nicholson clapped his hands and shouted: "Vote for one, vote for one ......"

On the sidelines, McHale couldn't stand Wen Hao's hesitation anymore, he had already made plans to replace Wen Hao with the next dead ball.

At this time, the Lakers attacked, and Nash made a mistake when passing the ball to Kobe, and the ball was picked up by Da Yao, who came off the bench, and he gave it to Wen Hao as soon as possible.

When Wen Hao got the ball, he saw that the Rockets players were running to the frontcourt, and Parsons was in the front, but Kobe Bryant had already defended Parsons. His heart moved, and he quickly dribbled to the halfway line and stopped.

Seeing that Wen Hao had no intention of attacking quickly, Kobe Bryant immediately slowed down and rushed towards Wen Hao, he wanted to continue to strangle Wen Hao.

But at this moment, Wen Hao suddenly raised his hand and threw it, and the basketball flew towards the basket. Parsons, who was originally running to the outside, saw the basketball flying, suddenly understood, turned around and ran to the basket, jumped high, and scored a heavy dunk.

As soon as the ball was scored, in a big mansion in Beverd Hills, Magic Johnson nodded, looked at the TV screen, and said, "It seems that this kid has understood the true meaning of fast attack." The fast break is not about how fast you are, it's about how fast your teammates are, and you need to be able to find your way and opportunities to pass the ball. ”

Indeed, as the magician said, Wen Hao's opportunity just now was based on the explanation in the magician's video.

But at this time, he didn't have time to get excited, because after he passed this assist, a piece of information came to his mind - 100 assists, new skills, and no shots......
