Chapter 465 Where Did Wood Go?

"It's Wood again. Wood wiped Dwight's ass for the second time in a row, but unfortunately, Wood dunked Dwight in disguise."

"Wood jumped really high, completely surpassing everyone. This is the real strength of the slam dunk king. In fact, he didn't completely dunk Dwight. It can only be said that there is no way for Wood to make up the dunk this time. Dwight.

Yao and Louis were knocked away too, weren't they? " Bill Wharton said with a smile.

Howard was very depressed. Not only did he fail to complete the goal, but he was dunked by Lin Senqi. He really wanted to throw Lin Sen off his back, especially at the moment Toyota Center laughed at him.

"Be careful."

Howard turned around and hugged Lin Sen. Lin Sen let go of the basket and was hugged by Howard. It seemed that the relationship between the two was very good.

The game continued, Howard returned to the defensive end and finally blocked Yao Ming's third personal attack, and the ball went directly out of the frame.

Milicic got the defensive rebound, covered the ball with both hands and passed it to Linsen.

"Yao finally missed the shot. Dwight must be relieved, but back to the offensive end, I hope Dwight won't ask for the ball again." Hoffman said, looking at Howard who was running forward.

Stan Van Gundy gestured at Lin Sen to tell Lin Sen not to singles Howard again, Lin Sen nodded.

Facing Francis' defense, Lin Sen held the ball around the [-]-degree three-point line on the right.

Lin Sen's left and right hands are balanced, and the number of breakthroughs on the left and right sides is almost the same. He is a rare person in the NBA who is not partial to both sides.

But even if the statistics don't show the difference, Lin Sen is still better at attacking from the right side.

Dribbling the ball with his left hand and gesturing towards Howard with his right hand, he signaled Howard to come out to cover and then cut in.

Seeing Lin Sen's gesture, Howard also thanked Lin Sen in his heart, and immediately pulled it out.

Bang!

Francis bumped into Howard, and McGrady on the other side immediately switched defenses with Francis.

Stick to Tracy.Lin Sen's ultra-low center of gravity cuts to the inside.

Suddenly there was an emergency stop, the right hand shot the ball behind him, the left hand caught the ball and the whole person caught McGrady's reaction too late, and the forced cut from the right became from the left.

This turn of events caused the Rockets to panic at the basket instantly, just as Yao Ming and Scola focused on Lin Sen.Lin Sen raised the ball with his left hand.

Scola jumped, but the ball flew high over his fingers and towards the backboard.

"Wood, is this a shot? Oh no, it's not a shot, it's a pass!" Hoffman said as he looked at the ball flying towards the backboard and bouncing to the right.

Howard, who screened for Linsen, cut in from around 45 degrees.

Watching the ball bounce off the backboard, he jumped high.Hold the ball firmly with both hands.

Yao Ming wanted to interfere with Howard, but Howard had jumped up completely.

Faced with such a situation, Yao Ming naturally knew that if he interfered again, he would only make himself a background board for Howard, and maybe he would be buckled.

Howard firmly grasped the ball bouncing off the backboard with both hands, looking at the rim with sparks in his eyes.

He pulled the ball behind his head and smashed it toward the basket with all his strength.

Bang!

There was a loud bang.The basket was bent by Howard, and his legs kicked forward fiercely.

"Dwight, Shaq dunk, this is a dunk to vent his depression." Bill Wharton said loudly.

Just like O'Neal's signature slam dunk, under the huge impact, the basket was pulled down to a higher level again.

Release the hoop and jump down.

The basket shook violently.What is unexpected is that Howard's dunk is too powerful.

The backboard shook even more after Howard let go of his hands, and the buzzing sound told everyone how much force it had just endured from Howard.

Under the violent shaking, the timer above the backboard went off.

It fell directly from above the backboard and hung to the side.

This turn of events shocked everyone, and Howard's fist-pumping roar echoed this scene perfectly.

The people who were standing under the basket all moved away, which made Howard's crazy dunk even more shocking.

The Toyota Center also fell silent because of this, and no one expected Howard's strength to be so great.

Although it was only the timer falling, not the backboard shattered, the impact was no less than the shattered backboard.

You must know that the load-bearing capacity of today's rebound tempered glass far exceeds that of the original.It is impossible to smash a rebound after scientific experiments.

"Perverted strength, the rebound is still shaking violently! Dwight's dunk is too crazy, this is a true manifestation of his depression." Hoffman sighed.

Bavita stopped the game, and the staff immediately entered the field for repairs.

"Dwight's playing like this is actually far better than him being strong. Now his role in Orlando is more defensive. Standing on the inside is a deterrent.

He can play better against a team that doesn't have that strong defensive ability inside, but against a team like Houston or even Cleveland, I care more about his defense.

If he doesn't do a good job on the defensive end, then he loses the meaning of playing.

On the offensive end, in fact, Dwight's ability to set a screen and then remove it is far inferior to Darko, but his physical fitness makes him and Wood, including Chauncey, very lethal in the pick-and-roll.

This kind of scoring will be very easy, and it can also share the pressure of his teammates on the defensive end, which is far better than his own forced singles with poor offensive skills.

If I were Stan, I'd ban Dwight for too many singles. "Bill Walton looked at Howard walking on the bench and said, "Unless Dwight develops more and more robust offensive techniques. "

How could Stan Van Gundy not know this, but Howard is the core inside after all.

Although the status of the team is not as good as that of Lin Sen, he also needs to take care of Howard's emotions.

If Howard is emotional or absent, the damage to the team will be greater, so sometimes he will not interfere too much with Howard's offense.

After 5 minutes, the staff fixed the timer and the game restarted.

These 5 minutes also effectively let the Rockets slow down the impact of being dunked by Howard just now. After the game restarted, Howard became extremely active.

On the offensive end, as Bill Walton said, use your physical fitness as a screen and then go down, you can come by yourself or attract defense.

Seven minutes after the third quarter, Howard went from two zeros at the beginning of the second half to five consecutive hits.

And these five goals all came from direct assists from teammates.Chen Tian contributed three of them.

The Rockets also played very well on the offensive end. The two sides put in a lot of energy on the defensive end in the third quarter, but the effect was far less than that in the first half.

Orlando scored 34 points in a single quarter, and the Rockets also scored 32 points. The two sides tied at 79 at the end of the third quarter.

After the start of the fourth quarter, the defensive intensity of both sides became stronger.

The hit rate also started to drop.The Rockets also found a way to contain Howard.

That is, Howard did not let go when he went out, but stuck up to defend.

The game passed minute by minute in a tense atmosphere, when the time came to the last 30 seconds from the end of the game.

McGrady hit a difficult three-pointer against Artest's defense, tying the point difference.

At this moment, Stan Van Gundy used up the team's last long timeout and only one short timeout remained, and the Rockets also only had one short timeout left.

"It's unbelievable. Tracy saved Houston. This three-pointer is really critical. Ron has already stuck to him, and the defense is in place.

If it wasn't for Ron's vigilance, Tracy might even score [-] points this time. If he gets [-] points, the pressure will now be on Orlando's side. Hoffman said, looking at the replay.

McGrady performed well in the first half of the game.But the performance in the third and fourth quarters was not good.

But the three-pointer just now is really crucial. Without this three-pointer, the Magic is close to winning the game.

Just as the players on both sides were heading to their respective benches, Lin Sen had a whim to imitate what Garnett did in the previous game.

Instead of going to the Magic bench to accept the tactical arrangement, he went directly to the Rockets bench.

He was not tall and squeezed directly next to Yao Ming, and on the other side was Lewis.

Lin Sen supported Yao Ming's back like a Rockets player. Neither Yao Ming nor Lewis realized that Lin Sen was beside them.

The Rockets, including the fans, were unaware of Lin Sen's behavior for a while, and Stan Van Gundy was about to arrange a plan.

He will undoubtedly hand over the key ball to Lin Sen.But it turns out that Lin Sen is not there.

"Where are the Wood people?" Stan Van Gundy asked.

Everyone looked around and looked around, but did not find Lin Sen.

"Wood is missing?" Milicic couldn't believe it.

"Wood just went to Houston." Pippen on the bench smiled exaggeratedly as he looked at the bewildered teammates.

"Wood went to the Rockets? Hahaha! Did he imitate KG? Houston didn't find him." Artest also laughed.

Stan Van Gundy has a black hair. He didn't expect such a thing.

Next was the Magic's offense. This offense was critical, but the most important person went to the Rockets to eavesdrop on the defensive tactics.

"I don't care about Wood, wait for the first place or give it to Wood, Chauncey, tell Wood to play the No. 11 tactic, if Wood can't fight, Darko, you immediately..."

Rick Adelman on the other side of the technical table slobbered: "They must give it to Wood to attack. Orlando's most commonly used key shots are to attack at these two points, and Darko and Dwight cover..."

Adelman spoke very carefully, and the Rockets listened very carefully.

On the contrary, the magic team was laughing happily, showing no pressure at all.

"Orlando is so relaxed, they seem to be laughing. They don't have any pressure at all." Hoffman said looking at the side of the magic court.

"I didn't expect the last game to be played to the end, and this game is the same, but it's time to show Wood's key ball ability.

Orlando is so relaxed, obviously they have enough confidence in Wood's key ball. If I were the coach and I had Wood, I wouldn't dare to worry.

If Wood completes the key ball again today, then there is no doubt that he is the biggest heart in NBA history. "Bill Wharton said.

After Adelman explained the defense, he arranged the last offensive tactic.

Bavita walked to the field and blew the whistle in his mouth.
