Even if Coleman stood firm under the basket, he couldn't stop Wei Guo from dunking.

Rather than becoming a background character...

It would be better to just dodge it and leave the entire three-second zone to Wei Guo. This isn't because Coleman is cowardly, but because Coleman and Wei Guo were teammates for a year, and he knows Wei Guo too well.

"Bang!!!"

Wei Guo scores with a one-handed dunk.

........

Iverson bounced a pass to Coleman, who then scored against Posey under the basket.

"Whoosh!!!"

After two feints, Coleman put the ball into the basket.

Posey and Coleman are both veterans, and their defense is starting to rely on experience rather than physicality.

Iverson knew very well...

It would be difficult for him to beat the Rockets on his own; he not only needs to score, but also needs to get his teammates to score.

The third quarter remained a close and evenly matched contest.

As Gentry said, the Rockets players were not in a good mood. Several players were not focused on the game. They could score, but they made a lot of mistakes, especially on defense. As long as it wasn't Wei Guo defending, Iverson could always find a chance to shoot.

73:75!!

At the end of the third quarter, the Rockets trailed by 2 points.

......

Wei Guo did not criticize his teammates; he understood how they felt.

actually...

Apart from Wei Guo, no one knew in advance that the team had been sold.

This was too sudden. Usually, when an owner wants to sell a team, they will release the news in advance, and then after several rounds of negotiations, they will finally sell it for a good price.

There's no way Alexander could be like this, with absolutely no news of him.

It feels like playing a video game where everyone is trying to push the tower, and suddenly you realize your base has been raided.

The boss has changed...

Whether it's good or bad, whether the team will undergo a major overhaul, or whether one will be traded, nobody knows.

Therefore, most of the Rockets players were preoccupied with their own thoughts and were unable to find their rhythm for a long time, even as the game quietly entered the fourth quarter.

With the game in progress, Gentry couldn't easily reassure the players.

after all...

Such a big event would normally take a long time to process, and it's too difficult to get the players back into form with just a few words.

The fourth quarter was about to begin, and Gentry looked at Wei Guo, "Brother Wei..."

"I see."

Wei Guo threw off his towel and walked onto the field, saying, "I'll continue playing."

Watching Wei Guo's retreating figure, several role players gathered around Gentry, "Coach, tell us, is there any connection between this mysterious Chinese tycoon and Brother Wei?"

"I feel...yes!"

Gentry fell into thought and said to Mobley, "You've been to Wei's house, you know how luxurious it is... and Wei has several very powerful uncles."

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

"It must be a good thing!"

Gentry stated unequivocally, "So everyone cheer up, give it your all, and win this game to make a good impression on the new owner."

"Okay~~~"

Gentry looked at the players in surprise; his one sentence had actually helped them regain their form!

It seems...

You need to seriously study the art of language; it would be best to buy a few books on inspirational quotes and learn from them.

......

At the start of the fourth quarter, the 76ers had four key players remaining on the court.

So far in the game, Wei Guo has had rest in the first three quarters: 2 minutes and 17 seconds in the first quarter, 3 minutes and 09 seconds in the second quarter, and 2 minutes and 39 seconds in the third quarter, while Iverson has stayed on the court and played all three quarters.

"Weiguo wants to win this match!"

Brown also understands Wei Guo; he doesn't want to rest because he wants to dominate the game.

The Rockets are on offense.

Wei Guo dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, changed direction to get past Van Horn, and then made a behind-the-back pass under the basket.

"Whoosh~~~"

Thomas received the ball comfortably and took a step forward.

"Bang!!!"

He jumped from a standing position and dunked for a score.

75:75!!

The Rockets tied the score, and Brown said to a few players who didn't know Wei Guo well, "I'm not afraid of Wei Guo's offense, I'm afraid of Wei Guo's passing."

"Why?"

"It's frighteningly calm."

The 76ers were on offense. Wei Guo didn't say a word and came to the top of the key to defend Iverson one-on-one.

Unable to get past Wei Guo and unable to find a shooting space, Iverson passed the ball to Coleman, who made two consecutive fake moves before taking the shot.

"Too slow..."

Brown sighed.

As expected...

*Smack!!!*

Coleman gave Weiguo time to help defend, and Weiguo blocked Coleman's shot from behind.

"I taught you all your moves."

Wei Guo grinned. "After the first feint, I knew what you were up to."

Coleman, “.......”

Despite being a veteran, Coleman admitted that with Wei Guo's help last season, his skills improved again. If it weren't for his physical limitations, Coleman felt that if he had mastered these skills earlier, his historical status would have been even higher.

The 76ers inbound the ball from the sideline.

Van Horn tried to lob the ball to Iverson, but Wei Guo intercepted it in mid-air. After getting the ball, Wei Guo went straight to the frontcourt.

Only Iverson kept up with Wei Guo.

But...

Following him was pointless; Iverson stopped as soon as he saw Wei Guo jump with his foot on the free-throw line.

There was absolutely no way to stop Wei Guo from scoring.

"Bang!!!"

Another dunk from the free-throw line.

Just then...

The DJ shouted loudly, "Defend the country!!!"

"mVp!"

"mVp!"

"mVp!"

Immediately, many fans joined the DJ in shouting 'mVp', but after two shouts, the fans' voices stopped abruptly.

Wei Guo is no longer a 76ers player... he is now a Rockets player.

77:75!!

With an assist, a block, a steal, and a dunk, Wei Guo took the lead in 57 seconds.

........

"76ers request a timeout!"

Brown had to call a timeout.

Opponents had used this method to disrupt Weiguo's rhythm before, but it was largely ineffective, and Brown couldn't think of any other good way.

Take advantage of this pause.

Francis and Mobley also returned to the field, and you could clearly feel that their momentum was different.

"You... just ate some kind of magic pill?"

Wei Guo joked, "Your aura has suddenly become so strong?"

Francis laughed and said, "Pretty much, anyway, we have to win this game."

They didn't eat the elixir, but they drank a bowl of chicken soup. The soup was nutritious and delicious, so Francis and Mobley were full of energy.

........

The timeout has ended, and the game has resumed.

Iverson passed the ball to McGee, then made a back run to the top of the arc and received the ball back from McGee.

An open three-pointer, he takes the shot!

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went through the net cleanly.

77:78!!

The 76ers have regained the lead by one point.
