"Andre is really miserable. He can't relax for even a moment. Chen Hao is always by his side. I feel that the shadow in his heart must be very large now. When he sees Chen Hao, he should be the kind that curses his father ~"
"I don't think anyone would be able to stand this kind of defensive intensity. What kind of grudge is this? The whole court is tightly marking. If it were me, I might not want to play anymore. It's pure bullying ~"
"Uh... Hao is just a rookie, Miller is a veteran star player ~"
"On the basketball court, seniority doesn't count. Everything depends on strength. Speaking of which, the league is only so big. You can't see it when you look up, but you can see it when you look down. Chen Hao is setting up a rival in one match ~"
"No, no, no. Steve wasn't angry in the last game. He even praised Hao's defensive ability after the game.”
"There aren't many players as magnanimous as Steve. You see, Andre is already anxious.”
“......”
As the audience saw, Andre Miller had been closely marked by Chen Hao and was in a very sensitive state. He could not calm down at all. Andre Miller directly made irrational actions. In an attack, he was so upset that he directly pushed Chen Hao out of the sidelines.
If Chen Hao hadn't reacted quickly and made a defensive move, he might have crashed into the advertisement board.
The crowd at the Staples Center was instantly booed. Kuame Brown rushed over and knocked Miller away. He came to Chen Hao and said,"
"Hao, are you alright?"
" I'm fine. Don't be rash. We have the advantage now." Chen Hao smiled at Kuame Brown.
Upon seeing this, Kuame Brown's heart instantly calmed down. He immediately turned around and stood in front of Chen Hao, glaring at Andre Miller. However, he did not make any move. Just looking at him made Miller's heart beat wildly, and he felt like he was about to be beaten up.
It seemed that he had been a little irrational during the last match between the two teams. He really shouldn't have done that.
However, Miller had no choice. He was really annoyed by the harassment and couldn't help but attack.
Soon, the rest of the Laker team also came over. Even Bynum and the others on the bench stood behind Chen Hao. They looked like they would kill Miller if he gave the order.
Phil Jackson secretly nodded at the unity of the team. The morale of the team could be used.
As for Hoffman, who was sitting next to him, he looked anxious and shouted at the players to calm down.
Phil Jackson was speechless."Stop shouting. They won't fight. Do you think Hao is angry?”
"I don't think so ~"
Looking at Chen Hao's calm expression, Hoffman was puzzled.""Why doesn't Hao look angry at all after being fouled so dangerously?”
"Because he knows that if he loses his mind at this time, it might affect the rest of the game. The key is the other side's fault. He knows what is the most beneficial way to deal with it. Hao is a very mature defender ~" Phil Jackson replied in a low voice.
His words did not conceal his admiration for Chen Hao. This was not the first time he had expressed such emotions in public.
Rodman's figure unconsciously appeared in his mind.
That bad boy was also very good at sowing discord and destroying the opponent's mentality. After causing a conflict, he would stay out of it every time.
The difference was that Chen Hao was not as eccentric and unique as Rodman. He looked like a well-behaved player.
This was completely different from everyone's first impression of Rodman as a bad guy. This made Chen Hao's impression in the eyes of the referee and the audience very good.
He wouldn't have Rodman's troubles.
In an important game that year, it was clearly the opponent who fouled Rodman, but because of Rodman's past misdeeds, the referee did not punish the opponent for the foul without seeing it clearly.
Chen Hao would never encounter such a situation unless the referee was biased towards the opponent.
He had to admit that a handsome face was very useful.
Because there was no conflict, the game quickly returned to normal. Andre Miller's action just now was undoubtedly a foul. The ball fell into the hands of the Clippers. After Chen Hao controlled the ball for half a court, he passed the ball to Kobe immediately.
With the current lineup, Kobe's offensive play would undoubtedly directly affect the outcome of the game. After all, the entire team's scoring responsibility was almost entirely on him. Odom's condition had not been particularly stable. Sometimes he was good, sometimes he was bad, and he was unreliable.
As for the rest of the team, Chen Hao was very clear about his position. For the time being, he was just a defensive player. As for Kuo Mei Brown and Chris Mihm, one was a pure center who ate the cake and had no individual offensive ability.
The other had height, strength, and good footwork, but his body wasn't particularly tough. He had a lot of small problems, and he always felt like he would fall to the ground the next second. He really didn't dare to give such a teammate a heavy responsibility.
It could be said that in the starting lineup, other than Kobe, who was a relatively stable scoring point, the others could not guarantee their scoring efficiency.
The substitutes 'bench was even worse. Smash Parker, who had no balls to play in the league, was the most reliable one.
It was no wonder that in his previous life, Kobe's average score this season was as high as 35.4 points per game. He had continuously contributed super high points. In the game against the Raptors, he was like a god descending from the heavens, scoring 81 points almost crazily.
Do you really think Kobe wanted me to shoot like this?
No!
His teammates were unreliable, so he could only rely on himself.
"Should I buy an offensive skill for emergencies?”
Chen Hao suddenly felt a little sorry for his proud little brother as he watched Kobe take the ball and attack the Nuggets 'multiplayer defense line time and time again. He also watched Kobe make difficult shots and force his way into the goal again and again.
Chen Hao felt that he had already put in a little more effort just because his wife was so beautiful and he was his brother.
However, even if he wanted to buy a skill, he would have to wait until the end of the game before he could carefully choose. Now was definitely not the time to think about these things. It was better to continue marking Andre Miller throughout the game.
Miller: ”
Without a stable point of organization, the Nuggets 'offense relied more on Anthony alone. He and Kobe frequently attacked each other, causing the Staples Center to be filled with exclamations.
Their scoring efficiency was only average.
However, in terms of scoring ability, Kobe, who was at his peak, was definitely better than Anthony. This allowed the Los Angeles team to lead the Nuggets by a slight margin after halftime.
In the second half, Odom's condition gradually improved, and Chen Hao's defense was still extremely solid, causing Miller's mentality to explode and he could not play. The Nuggets had to send Boykins, who had a big defensive hole, and the Los Angeles Clippers began to gradually pull away.
In the end, the Laker defeated the Nuggets again with a score of 99:91, achieving a three-game winning streak and ranking first in the Western Conference!
Kobe played for 42 minutes in the game. He made 16 of 31 shots and nine of nine free throws. He scored 41 points and once again became the biggest contributor to the team's victory.
Odom was in excellent form in the second half and contributed 23 points throughout the game.
The third-highest scorer for the Los Angeles Clippers was Hao Chen, who scored four out of five shots…Alright, four layups, the only mid-range shot that didn't go in, four of four free throws, and the first time he scored in double figures this season. He scored 12 points and was also the only three players on the Los Angeles Clippers to score in double figures.
In addition to scoring, Chen Hao also had 4 rebounding and 7 assists, as well as 4 steals and 5 fouls.
After three games, he had an average of 4.6 steals per game, ranking first in the league.
Once again, he refused to attend the post-match press conference. After washing up, Chen Hao sat on a chair in the locker room and called up the system panel.
" Miller wasn't good enough in this match. His running distance was average, and he only managed to farm 490,000 points. He's really bad. Right now, I only have a little over two million System Credits, which is only enough to buy a B-rank skill. Should I save up more or buy it directly?" Chen Hao was a little hesitant.
Looking at the dazzling array of B-rank skills in the system store, Chen Hao did not know what to choose.
There were too many choices, but many of the skills were not too practical and did not match his style of competition. In short, he did not like them.
" A B-rank skill is still too weak. Why don't I save up for a few matches to buy an A-rank skill, or directly use an S-rank skill?"
Just as Chen Hao was about to close the system interface, a skill suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
[Hundred Steps Shot: Greatly increases the accuracy of three-point shots. Additional effect: When it was disturbed, its accuracy would be greatly reduced.
"Uh... "Why does this skill make me think of Novak?" Chen Hao's mouth twitched.
That guy was the kind of three-point shooter who was extremely accurate when there was no defense, but his accuracy was average when there was defense.
However, as long as it was an open shot, it could be said that every shot was accurate.
Looking at the skill introduction, thinking about Novak's characteristics on the offensive end, as well as his current situation and the team's current situation, Chen Hao suddenly realized that this skill seemed to be quite suitable for him.
The only players who could shoot three-pointers on the entire team were Kobe, Lamar Odom, Smash Parker, Brian Cook, and Vujasic on the bench.
Only Brian Cook's three-point shooting percentage was above 40%, while the other four were around 30%.
It was almost the kind that only depended on luck.
The team did not have a stable three-point shooter, which greatly squeezed the offensive space of the Los Angeles team, allowing the opponent to further shrink the defense and not have to spend too much energy to defend against the outside players of the Los Angeles team.
If Chen Hao could have a more stable three-point shooting ability, even if it was just an open shot, it could reduce some of the pressure on Kobe and Odom's offense. At least the offensive space would not be as crowded as it had been in the past few games.
If it was just a one-on-one, with Kobe's current ability and competitive state, no one in the entire league would be able to defend against him.
Thinking of this, Chen Hao suddenly felt like spending money.
"You're a bastard who doesn't spend money. It's only two million anyway. You'll earn it back very soon. Why keep it? A real man should buy, buy, buy ~"
Without any hesitation, Chen Hao purchased the Hundred Steps Shooting Skill. He suddenly felt that he was different. He had the urge to go on stage and practice his three-point shooting.
Chen Hao called out his attribute panel and looked at his current three-point ability. He was surprised to find that his long-range shooting value had soared from the original 60 to 80. It was a value that could be used as a regular scoring weapon.
This was only Level 1, and the bonus was already so great.
"When I raise it to the peak, it won't be full, right?"
However, when he thought about the additional effect of this skill, Chen Hao was helpless. When someone was defending, his hit rate would be greatly reduced. This effect was really a pain in the ass.
" My next opponent is the Hawks, and it's an away game. Fortunately, it's not a back-to-back match. I have a day of buffer time to familiarize myself with my current three-point ability," Chen Hao thought.
Then he began to look forward to Kobe's expression when he saw that he had the ability to shoot three-pointers.
