Chapter 31 Recognition from fans and media

Author: Feng Yuanhua

Looking at Kenny Thomas's extremely tired look, he was about to curse, but he couldn't say it.

Francis thought for a while and said: "It's okay, I will score the next goal."

I have to say that the reason why Boss Fu is called Boss Fu is because of his temperament.

With such a sentence at this time, if Kenny Thomas can enter Mosaic, why not follow the boss to the death?

It's just that competitive sports don't talk about this, hard power is the truth.

Even though Francis is still confident, Tomjanovich sitting off the court is a little helpless.

Regarding Kenny Thomas' physical strength, it's not like he hasn't considered it and has also changed players.

However, today's mosaic lineup really doesn't have the ability to defend Wang Hao.

The players who were replaced were either easily got rid of or lacked enough resistance, so they had to be replaced by Kenny Thomas.

In the end, Tomjanovich chose to make a substitution, and Kenny Thomas was replaced by starting shooting guard Devin Gray.

Mosaic is still the same tactic as before, allowing Francis to run without the ball and find opportunities to launch an attack after receiving the ball.

It's just that the Sonics won't give it a chance.

"Switch defense. When encountering a pick-and-roll, switch defense immediately."

Wang Hao arranged the defense loudly, and immediately changed players when encountering pick-and-rolls. Once Francis received the ball, he immediately double-teamed.

In a hurry, Devin Gray didn't know what to do.

In the end, Francis could only retreat to near half-court, and then he easily received the ball.

Wang Hao retreated directly to the outside of the three-point line, surrounded by Sonics players who were eager to double-team.

I don’t know what Francis was thinking, but he actually chose to take a three-point shot. This shouldn’t be the case.

His three-point shooting percentage is average, which is not what he is good at.

What's more, although there is a step difference, Wang Hao's height and wingspan are enough to make up for these differences.

In order to avoid Wang Hao's block, Francis temporarily chose to shoot early and deformed his shooting movement.

"Bang!"

There was a very clear sound of blacksmithing. For those who didn't know, I thought it was the arrival of a well-known blacksmith.

Lewis rarely acted tough and grabbed the rebound first, and now, there are only 1 minute and 11 seconds left before the end of the game.

This time, Wang Hao did not move again. Facing Mosaic's substitutions and double-teaming at any time, it was difficult to get a chance.

He simply came to the mid-range on the right to catch the ball, and motioned for everyone to pull away, as if he was going to play from behind.

Yes, he doesn't know how to hit from behind, but does Mosaic dare to bet?

Wang Hao took a stance and then started to push in. If he really got into the basket, he would definitely be a huge threat.

Sure enough, Matt Bullard's double team followed immediately.

At this time, it is naturally impossible for the SuperSonics players to stand and watch the show. Everyone is running, preparing to meet Wang Hao.

Lewis, who was unmarked, came to the free throw line and asked for the ball with his hands raised.

In any case, Lewis is the Sonics' second-leading scorer. How dare Cato let him take action.

It was at this time that Wang Hao took action. He chose to pass the ball and passed it directly to the basket.

Jelani, who was setting a pick-and-roll for Shamond just now, appeared under the basket at some point.

Cato, on the other hand, was attracted by Lewis to defend him.

"boom!"

A powerful dunk gave the Sonics the lead in the last minute.

Mosaic immediately requested a timeout, and now, there are only 51 seconds left before the end of the game.

"Well done, guys, keep working harder, there's still only one minute to go.

The next defense must not give any chance. If we defend it, we will win the game."

At this point in the fight, there was nothing to emphasize, except that Francis was strangled to death.

As for Francis choosing to pass the ball, the only choice is to bet that the Sonics players can be rotated in and that Francis cannot pass the ball.

Sure enough, after attracting double-teams, Francis still chose to do it on his own and took responsibility himself.

But faced with double-teaming by two people, his mid-range shot missed.

With 39 seconds left, Mosaic did not choose a foul tactic, but Wang Hao did not give him a chance.

Francis can play pass-cut coordination without the ball, and he can do the same.

Devin Gray couldn't keep up with Wang Hao, which gave Wang Hao the opportunity to get rid of him and catch the ball.

Wang Hao hit the mid-range shot steadily.

101:97

There were only 25 seconds left for the game to end, but Mosaic fell behind by four points and needed to score at least two goals.

What's more, Mosaic has no chance of pause.

The Sonics do have one on hand, but Field won't help.

There is no tactical arrangement. After the ball is released and Francis gets the ball, he will naturally control the offense.

I have to say, this guy is really awesome.

In this situation, he was heavily guarded by the Sonics, but he still scored a layup.

101:99

However, a lot of time was wasted, with only 12 seconds left in the game.

Field had already prepared a tactic for receiving the ball and used continuous pick-and-rolls to win the opportunity for Wang Hao to receive the ball.

Wang Hao made two steady free throws, and the lead expanded to 4 points again.

In this situation, there is no timeout, which is quite fatal, because the ball has to be served from the backcourt.

No matter how fast Francis is, if he catches the ball from the backcourt, it will be difficult to pass quickly when someone is defending him.

After halftime, there was not much time left, so he could only rush to shoot a three-pointer and try his luck.

Facts have proved that lady luck is on the side of the Sonics today.

"Beep!"

As the referee's whistle sounded, Wang Hao put his hands on his hips and didn't even want to move.

Looking at Francis appearing in front of him, Wang Hao smiled and said, "Steve, you played very well today."

"Thank you. Congratulations. I hope you can win the championship."

"certainly!"

It was just a game. Although Francis was very unhappy, he was not so ungraceful.

Of course, Francis is still working hard and is ready to win back the next time they meet.

"Wang, a reporter wants to interview you."

"Interview me?"

Although it is a bit unexpected, it is reasonable, after all, he is the winner.

In the past, the summer games were not without reporters and media, but their targets were often high-ranking players like Francis.

Today, he actually took the initiative to interview Wang Hao, probably because Francis lost.

That's right, in the eyes of these media, no matter how good you play in the summer split, it can't compare to winning these high-ranking players through head-to-head dialogue.

Wang Hao's performance today can be said to be no worse than Francis.

In the whole game, Francis scored 33 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 steals. The data was very comprehensive.

Wang Hao was also not bad, with 30 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 1 block.

Whether on the offensive or defensive end, his performance was impeccable.

More importantly, the media and fans began to recognize him. If it was only on a small scale before, it is now recognized.
