Chapter 111 I heard you're Zhan's best male friend?
The exciting halftime show has ended, which means the halftime break is over too.
The players from both sides slowly walked out of the players' tunnel.
Wang Xiucheng finished the last bite of the banana and gave the peel to the uniformed staff waiting next to him.
The referee was already waiting on the field, and after everyone was back in position, the whistle blew to restart the second half of the game.
Some fans who left the stadium with their children to buy food at halftime were two minutes late returning with hamburgers and fries.
When they looked up at the score on the dome screen, they were stunned for a moment.
67:57.
The Rockets are leading by 10 points.
At the start of the second half, the Rockets not only made up for the one-point deficit, but also took a 10-point lead!
In just two minutes, the Rockets scored 11 points?
Fans who didn't see the process were puzzled: how was this done?
Inside the court, the Wizards' Kuzma broke through to the inside, shook off Shen Jing under the basket, and scored with a layup.
67:59.
Kuzma breathed a sigh of relief, finally catching up to double digits.
As he retreated, Kuzma glanced at Wang Xiucheng, who was about to receive the ball.
He didn't know why Wang Xiucheng started playing one-on-one in the second half, and he always took the initiative to find Rui Hachimura.
In just two minutes, Wang Xiucheng capitalized on the Wizards' mistakes to steal the ball twice, converting both into points and drawing two fouls from Rui Hachimura.
What happened at the Rockets' midfield?
Kuzma began to speculate.
He pushed Bill aside slightly, and Wang Xiucheng reached out to catch the ball.
Bill immediately pressed against him again, which annoyed Wang Xiucheng.
Very few people in the entire league dare to be so self-proclaimed now.
You're doing this because I've just made my comeback, right?
Wang Xiucheng took a step back after receiving the ball, creating some distance, and then dribbled between his legs to break through to the right.
Bill bent over, staring at Wang Xiucheng like a cheetah.
The instant Wang Xiucheng moved, Bill did not follow Wang Xiucheng to the right, but instead stepped forward, placing one foot directly in front of Wang Xiucheng's right leg.
If Wang Xiucheng doesn't change direction, he'll only trip up Bill.
This is a dirty move, and it's also a lose-lose situation.
If Wang Xiucheng does not slow down or change direction, both of them risk injury.
Bill, the gambling king, dared not risk injury to break through again.
After a decade of fierce competition in the league, he still has a good grasp of the psychology of rookies.
A rookie who has just been injured will definitely be extra cautious when he returns to the court, and may even have some psychological trauma.
At least that's what he thought.
However, Wang Xiucheng's actions were beyond his expectations.
When Wang Xiucheng saw his actions, a rare ruthless glint appeared in his eyes!
Wait until I trip over your leg?
You're dreaming!
Wang Xiucheng held the ball in his left hand, lowered his body, and rushed to the right.
Wang Xiucheng slightly changed direction, and then accelerated away like a sports car.
Bang!
Wang Xiucheng bumped directly into Bill's leg.
Bill fell backward, clutching his groin in pain.
Wang Xiucheng was also stopped in his tracks.
Wang Xiucheng even exaggeratedly took several steps back before regaining his footing.
beep!
The referee blows the whistle.
Then one of the referees paused, seemingly considering for a few seconds, before coming to the scorer's table and making the gesture indicating that Bill had committed a blocking foul.
Bill was still lying on the ground, pounding the floor with one hand in pain.
Wang Xiucheng spread his hands innocently, as if he had no idea what had happened.
Unseld, looking utterly disgusted, chased after the referee, yelling, "Are you blind? Bill got poked in the groin by that kid! That's a dangerous move, it could kill him! Are you blind?"
The referee didn't want to pay much attention to him, but Unseld's mouth was so ugly that the referee stared at him as a warning.
Unseld slammed his hand on the challenge button in a fit of anger.
The game is suspended.
Bill was helped back to the bench by his teammates, and the team doctor immediately came over to check on him.
Bill gritted his teeth, cold sweat beading on his forehead, and glared at Wang Xiucheng, who was standing some distance away drinking water.
He had just been kneed in the groin by Wang Xiucheng.
It hurts a lot, but thankfully I shouldn't be injured.
This is the experience he gained from his ten-year professional career.
If Wang Xiucheng's knee had moved another ten centimeters, he would truly be childless.
Rui Hachimura, who was draped in a towel, also looked constipated.
In less than 3 minutes, he was called out by Wang Xiucheng twice and committed two fouls.
We need to find a way to get this place back.
While the referee reviewed the video, it was also being replayed on the large screen in the dome.
When Wang Xiucheng slammed his knee into Bill's thigh, the fans in the stadium gasped involuntarily, and many men even tensed their legs as if feeling the same sensation.
Then came a chorus of boos directed at Wang Xiucheng, which naturally included words starting with the letter F.
This is the Wizards' home court after all; even LeBron James would receive the same treatment here.
The referees discussed the matter but did not change their decision.
Bill's outstretched leg while moving was definitely a blocking foul. Wang Xiucheng rushed forward, but at that speed, he didn't have time to do anything else.
Bill could only suffer in silence.
The game resumed, but Bill did not play; instead, he received a massage from the team doctor on the bench.
Amidst a chorus of boos, Wang Xiucheng returned to the field. He smiled, glanced around the stands, and then raised his hands upwards.
Your voices are too soft, I can't hear you!
Then the boos grew even louder, as if they were trying to tear the roof off.
The referee frowned and warned Wang Xiucheng not to provoke the fans.
Wang Xiucheng nodded quickly, like an obedient student.
Rockets inbound the ball.
Raulnetto came on as a substitute and was responsible for defending against Wang Xiucheng.
Raulnetto, who is only 188 cm tall, was easily beaten by Wang Xiucheng with a single feint.
After dribbling the ball past half-court, Wang Xiucheng crossed paths with Tate, and then switched to guard Rui Hachimura, who looked wary.
After switching hands between his legs, Wang Xiucheng shook off Rui Hachimura by half a body length, and then crouched down and entered the paint.
Rui Hachimura quickly retreated, trying to stay close to Wang Xiucheng without turning around to prevent him from passing the ball.
If Wang Xiucheng is about to shoot, his position no longer allows him to block Wang Xiucheng's shot, so he can only prevent Wang Xiucheng from passing the ball.
At this moment, Wang Xiucheng suddenly took a step back, then clapped the ball and raised his hand.
Rui Hachimura didn't even dare to extend his hand; he had been tricked into committing fouls by Wang Xiucheng the previous two times in the same way.
Swish!
Seeing that Hachimura Rui wasn't fooled, Wang Xiucheng threw the ball directly.
Two points in.
Wizards' offensive possession.
Raulnetto passed the ball to Kuzma.
With Beal absent, Kuzma will undoubtedly be the Wizards' first choice for the shot.
Kuzma didn't disappoint Raulnetto, sinking a three-pointer.
As Kuzma backed away, he wagged three fingers as he passed right next to Wang Xiucheng.
Wang Xiucheng looked at Kuzma and said, "I didn't have time to greet you, so you came to me on your own, right?"
On the Rockets' offense, Wang Xiucheng switched to defend Rui Hachimura again.
However, Rui Hachimura was very restrained, and he stopped moving forward when he was more than half a meter away from Wang Xiucheng.
This distance allows Wang Xiucheng to easily screen into the paint.
With a snap, the ball was bounced to the ground and passed to Shen Jing, who had returned to the inside after setting a screen.
Shen Jing grabbed the basketball, ready to dunk.
Snapped!
Garford slapped Shen Jing's hand.
beep!
The referee's whistle sounded.
Garford committed a foul, and Shen Jing needs to draw two additional penalties.
Wang Xiucheng glanced at the time on the big screen and figured he could still fight two more rounds.
Wang Xiucheng stood with his hands on his hips outside the three-point line, glanced at Silas, and seeing no sign that he was going to be substituted, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although his playing time was limited, Wang Xiucheng still wanted to play a little more.
Kuzma was also standing not far away, swaying back and forth.
Wang Xiucheng glanced at him.
Kuzma also glanced at Wang Xiucheng.
"What are you looking at?" Kuzma asked.
Wang Xiucheng's eyes seemed somewhat provocative. Kuzma didn't know if it was because he had taken advantage of Bill, or because Rui Hachimura was deliberately avoiding him.
Wang Xiucheng chuckled and said, "I heard you're Jenna's best male friend?"
