The basketball flies towards Kobe, and Weiguo runs towards the basket!
Kobe got the basketball, didn't dribble once... and threw the ball to Weiguo. McGrady jumped close to Weiguo, but Weiguo still intercepted the ball.
He turned and blew past McGrady!
Wei Guo dribbled the ball for two steps and reached the basket, leaping high and pressing his hands onto the basketball!
A Shaquille O'Neal-esque two-handed dunk.
"Bang!!!"
The basketball hoop was instantly bent by Wei Guo's weight.
The ball hoops and stands are of very high quality; otherwise, they would have broken under Wei Guo's weight!
2-0!!!
The Lakers scored first.
Phil Jackson and Shaquille O'Neal were both present. The two sat together, and O'Neal said, "I dunked like this when I won the last championship."
The Lakers could have won three consecutive championships...
In this league, winning four championships in ten years or even a three-peat is equivalent to establishing a dynasty. Only the Celtics and the Bulls can truly be called dynasties.
The emergence of Wei Guo thwarted the Lakers' ambition to build a dynasty. First, he stopped the Lakers from winning consecutive championships with the 76ers, and then he went to the Rockets to keep the Lakers out of the Finals. This has become Phil Jackson's biggest regret in the 21st century... This year, the probability of winning the championship is over 99%, but the head coach is not Phil Jackson.
......
The Rockets were on offense. Brooks made a nimble drive into the paint and passed the ball to Yao Ming. Yao Ming caught the ball, jumped, and dunked it over Gasol.
Brooks was instrumental in the Rockets' 21-game winning streak...
Standing at 1.83 meters tall, he is this year's rookie. He is slender and lacks physicality, but he is agile enough. With his cleverness, he can get more than ten minutes of playing time in a game. With the playoffs approaching, he has been promoted to the starting lineup by Adelman.
The Lakers inbound the ball from the baseline.
Paul dribbled past midcourt and passed the ball to Wei Guo, who made a no-look bounce pass to Kobe, who caught the ball and scored a layup.
The two teams started attacking each other...
Battier guarded Kobe one-on-one, Yao Ming guarded Gasol one-on-one, and Wei Guo would double-team as soon as he received the ball. It wasn't difficult to stop the Lakers from scoring. The Lakers started playing team basketball in the middle of the regular season!
Cummings always remembered one thing: blocking shots!
The outcome of this game will not affect the Rockets' ranking. With Yao Ming back from injury, Adelman will only let Yao play for ten or twenty minutes. Mutombo's playing time will increase. If Mutombo doesn't get any blocks, Wei Guo will need to get ten blocks tonight to surpass Mutombo.
Currently...
Wei Guo focused on playmaking and defense, and apart from that powerful two-handed dunk at the start of the game, he didn't take a single shot.
These celebrities and business tycoons were getting anxious. They don't often have the opportunity to watch games live, and they really hoped that Wei Guo could score a high number of points in his last game of his career. Paul passed the ball to Wei Guo after crossing midfield, but Wei Guo kept organizing the offense and didn't shoot.
If it were Kobe...
In his last game of his career, he should score 60 points... Everyone will say not to pass the ball.
......
The first quarter began with six minutes played before the first timeout.
17:15!!
The Lakers lead by 2 points.
Yao Ming played well, scoring 8 points on 4-for-4 shooting and dominating Gasol in the paint.
"Brother Wei, why aren't you attacking?"
Gentry looked at the technical statistics table and asked curiously, "Or is it that you want to do something even cooler tonight?"
2 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks!
In just seven minutes, Wei Guo filled the statistics sheet, with no item being zero. The audience hoped that Wei Guo would get a high score, but Gentry was thinking, "Is Wei Guo trying to get a five-double again?"
12 five-doubles in his career!
This is definitely the hardest record to break in the league. Could it be that Wei Guo wants to turn 12 into 13 tonight?
"I don't know what's the coolest thing!"
Cummings chimed in, "But Wei must get double-digit blocks tonight."
The Rockets' bench.
Adelman didn't even have a playboard; he just told the players to do their best and not necessarily to fight for the win. The Lakers' undefeated regular season record was within reach, and they would only fight harder than the Rockets. If the Rockets wanted to stop the Lakers at this juncture, this game would be a fight to the death.
Not worth it...
The Spurs started resting their key players last week.
......
The timeout has ended, and the game has resumed.
Wei Guo remains on the field...
Gentry had to do it this way, or the 20,000-plus spectators behind him would pluck out his freshly permed hair.
Rockets on offense!
Brooks dribbled the ball, observing his teammates' positioning, and called for Scola to set a screen. After getting past Paul, he looked at his hands and thought, "Where's the ball???"
The basketball has disappeared...
It was definitely not Paul who stole the ball; Paul was already blocked by Scola.
"Look up, look ahead!"
Paul smiled and reminded Brooks.
Brooks looked up and saw Wei Guo standing three meters in front of him, slowly dribbling the ball. He wasn't in a hurry to launch a fast break, but waited for Kobe to run up the court before Wei Guo dribbled past midcourt and tossed the ball over the basket.
Kobe has caught up...
"Bang!!!"
Alley-oop dunk!
Wei Guo and Kobe's teamwork became increasingly seamless, essentially becoming the strongest duo in history. Not to mention the OK combination, even Jordan and Pippen were a level below Wei Guo and Kobe.
"Scoring, assists, and rebounds in double figures are all easy..."
Cummings chewed on his pen, his eyes fixed on the court. "It's just that steals and blocks will be more difficult. Wei needs to participate more in defense."
Once the nation takes serious defense...
It doesn't matter that the Rockets had to surrender in less than three quarters. This can be considered Wei Guo's retirement game. After that, it's the playoffs. Even in garbage time, the audience will not allow Wei Guo to leave the court. Even if he can't hold on any longer, Wei Guo will fall on the court.
Rockets on offense!
Brooks dribbled past Paul and pulled up for a jump shot!
"careful..."
"The nation is behind you..."
"It's over..."
Three teammates tried to warn him at the same time, but it was too late. Wei Guo jumped behind Brooks, slapped the ball down, and blocked the shot.
Mutombo counted on his fingers, "He got three blocks in the first quarter alone, he'll get at least twelve blocks in a game."
"That's not how you calculate it."
Hayes retorted, "There are still more than three minutes left in the first quarter. Maybe Wei Guo can get a few more blocks, and your second place in total blocks might become third."
Mutombo flashed a bright white smile, his expression憨厚 (honest and simple), "I don't care..."
"You really don't care?"
Hayes blinked. "There's a big difference between second and third... We're not like Wei Guo, who has a ton of honors. Every honor is important to us."
Mutombo and Hayes are at odds.
He really doesn't care... Even if it's true what Hayes said, he's not an ordinary player like Hayes. He's an 8-time All-Star, a 2-time rebounding champion, a 3-time block champion, a 4-time Defensive Player of the Year, and several times he's been selected to the All-Defensive First Team, the All-Defensive Second Team, and the All-NBA Second Team and the All-NBA Third Team. He's got a lot of honors, right?
