After Jeremy Lin came on with a bunch of substitutes, he also played well. Without Harden and Howard, the ball is in his hands. His pick-and-rolls with No. 11 and Asik also went well. In the final four minutes of the first half, he had three assists and six points. Although the main players of the Mavericks chased the score, it was not too close. At the end of the first half, the Rockets still led by eight points, 67-59.

Rockets fans rejoiced at this time, and it looked like the Rockets were in a good situation. Although 8 points is not a lot, the momentum is completely on the side of the Rockets, plus it is on the home court of the Rockets, and the Rockets are likely to win this game.

After half-time adjustments, the two sides returned to the field again. At the beginning of the third quarter, the Mavericks were still all on the court, and they really didn't want to lose. The Rockets are also all on the court. McHale didn't let Wen Hao and the main players play at the beginning of the third quarter, but let Jeremy Lin play. After all, Jeremy Lin is still the main force now, and if he is suddenly pressed on the bench, it will have a great impact on Jeremy Lin's mood.

After the main players of the Rockets came on the court, they still played at a fast pace. But the Mavericks adjusted their midcourt and their defense was faster, and the Rockets failed to make several consecutive fast breaks, so they had to fall into position. But in positional battles, Harden often encounters heavy defense, Jeremy Lin is also restricted, although the Warcraft on the inside has been trying to block and dismantle with Jeremy Lin and Harden, but the Mavericks' defense is also very tight, and the ball can't be passed to the Warcraft at all after the blocking. After five minutes, the Mavericks had chased the score to just four points. McHale had to call a timeout.

During the pause, McHale said to Wen Hao: "Wen, get ready to play." ”

After the previous game, McHale has also understood that when the Rockets are dragged into a positional battle, they still need Wen Hao's breakthrough and passing. Although Jeremy Lin can also break and pass, he is the main point guard of the Rockets, and opponents have long known his habits and style of play, and it is not too difficult to defend him. And Wen Hao has only played a few games, and the opponent is not familiar with him at all, and does not understand his habits and style of play, so it is difficult to defend him.

At the end of the timeout, before going on the court, Howard said to Wen Hao, "Hey, brother, we're fighting together again." He looked excited.

Wen Hao nodded.

Howard didn't care about Wen Hao's lack of words, he continued to smile and said to Wen Hao: "It's like a pass in the first half, a few more." Constantly catching and dunking, it's really cool. ”

"Yes." Wen Hao glanced at Howard, and saw that Howard's expression was like a child looking forward to a new toy. People say that Howard's surname is like a child, which is not bad at all.

After re-entering the court, Wen Hao dribbled the ball past half court and still handed the ball to Harden. After all, Harden is currently the Rockets' undisputed trump card, and the offense naturally starts from him.

Harden tested the ball twice, then suddenly pulled a three-pointer. But he wasn't in great shape today and the ball bounced off the basket. Howard struggled for rebounds on the inside, spotted the ball to the outside, and flew towards Wen Hao.

At this moment, Howard saw Wen Hao's eyes, only to see that Wen Hao's eyes did not look at the ball, but at himself. At this moment, Howard realized something, and he was too busy to jam the position under the basket.

Sure enough, as Howard thought, after Wen Hao received the ball, he didn't think about it at all, and threw the ball back as soon as possible, the arc was exactly the same as when he gave it to Wen Hao just now, but in the opposite direction.

The Mavericks players never imagined that Wen Hao would be so bold to pass the ball back to Howard, who was surrounded by the two, so they didn't take it seriously. And Howard had thought that Wen Hao would pass the ball and stuck in the best position. Seeing the ball fly above his head, he leaped high and scored another aerial relay. Turning his head, he grinned like a child, pointed at Wen Hao, and shouted, "Well passed!" ”

Wen Hao had an indifferent smile on his face, he seemed to be so calm all the time.

Ellis was not as calm as Wen Hao. Although he also scored 12 points on Wen Hao's head, he is different from Wen Hao, he is an upright main force, how can 12 points be enough? And Wen Hao passed good balls or breakthroughs in front of him again and again, which also made him unbearable.

"Dead Chinese Yankee......" Ellis said through gritted teeth, his eyes cold to the extreme.

The next time the Mavericks attacked, Ellis faced Wen Hao's defense, directly shook off Wen Hao, and entered the interior. But Howard saw the moment and covered the ball with one palm. Ellis didn't dare to get angry at a big name like Howard, so he could only glare at Wen Hao fiercely.

The Rockets attacked, and this time Wen Hao dribbled directly to the frontcourt. Originally, he wanted to give the ball to Harden, but Howard suddenly came up to help him block the pick-and-roll, and he took advantage of the situation to kill inside.

"I won't let you get away with it!" Ellis roared angrily and chased after Wen Hao and pounced. But Wen Hao had already shot, he didn't even look at it, and threw the ball to the rebound. After the ball bounced off the rebound, Howard, who followed behind, leaped high and smashed the ball into the basket like a crowd.

At the same time, Ellis couldn't hold his body and pounced directly on Wen Hao, and the two flew out towards the bottom line at the same time.

The referee's whistle sounded quickly, and Howard scored two points and awarded Ellis a foul and Wen Hao made a free throw.

So in Ellis's resentful gaze, Wen Hao added two more points to the free throw. He has scored a career-high 14 points in this game.

Ellis subconsciously glanced back at the head coach, only to see that the head coach's face was extremely ugly, and he seemed to be about to replace himself at any time. And the boss Kuban is like a statue, cold as frost. Ellis knew that the two of them might have fallen to an all-time low in their opinions. And all of this was brought by Team Rocket 5.

Thinking of this, Ellis dribbled and rushed towards Wen Hao, and at this time, he hated to run over Wen Hao directly. He shook slightly, and then flashed past Wen Hao, and at the same time, his right elbow was extremely hidden on Wen Hao's lower abdomen. Wen Hao staggered back a few steps and covered his lower abdomen. Ellis made a jump shot, turned around, and finally let out a breath, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and looked at Wen Hao with a sneer. Then he turned and walked away.

Wen Hao looked at Ellis's back, his expression was still the same, and he still looked so calm. But a wave of anger had risen in his heart, and at the same time as the anger rose, a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth. If Ellis saw Wen Hao's smile at this time, he would definitely think of a sentence to describe it: the sneer of the killing god!
