Chapter 217 You Made Him Mad
"My God! Is this a fight or a game?"
At Xiaoxue's home, Lan Lan covered her mouth as she witnessed the conflict between the players on both sides.
She had never watched the NBA before, and it was hard to believe that the players would still fight when they were playing basketball.
Xiaoxue, who was sitting next to her, was not at all surprised by this: "It is normal to have conflicts on the basketball court, after all, it is a sport with intense physical confrontation."
"Having said that, after Lin Tian was provoked, he really wasn't afraid at all, and jumped up with a whoosh."
"Of course, although Lin Tian is only a rookie, he is by no means a persimmon. Last time he hugged and threw a player."
"Nick Young is so handsome! He rushed over to vent his anger on Lin Tian, but the Thunder players didn't react too strongly."
"Lin Tian has a very good relationship with his teammates. He was fouled maliciously. Of course, his teammates have to stand up, but today they are indeed more united than the Thunder."
……
Several referees watched the replay for a full 8 minutes.
And these 8 minutes are also very precious to Lin Tian and the others.
In the end, after discussions among several referees, the referee gave the final penalty:
Ibaka fouled first with a rebound and gave a first-level flagrant foul.
Lin Tian and Nick Young were sentenced to technical fouls.
As soon as the penalty was issued, the audience booed from the home fans.
They were obviously extremely dissatisfied with this penalty!
And Nick Young on the Lakers side also seemed extremely dissatisfied.
He spread his hands towards the referee, and asked loudly: "Referee! Stare your eyes wide! Where did I foul? Find out! I am going to prevent the situation from getting worse!"
The referee curled his lips: "I'm not blind! You'd better keep your mouth shut now, otherwise I don't mind giving you another technical foul."
Nick Yang, who knew he was wrong, couldn't say anything more, so he closed his mouth obediently.
Malicious fouls and technical fouls themselves require free throws, but people on both sides get the whistle, which is offset.
The game restarts.
The next ball belongs to the Lakers.
After the Lakers serve, Lin Tian holds the ball.
Before the people from Thunder came to double-team, Kobe had already run over to play a pick-and-roll for Lin Tian.
Through Kobe's pick-and-roll, while Robertson was still changing defenses, Lin Tian suddenly kicked hard on the soles of his feet, and the whole person went to the inside to kill.
This time his speed was so fast that Robertson couldn't keep up.
Seeing this, Adams and Ibaka on the inside frowned instinctively.
Ibaka still chose to come over to defend.
When he rushed in front of Ibaka, Lin Tian took off forcefully, with great momentum.
Ibaka didn't have time to think, and instinctively stretched his right hand to cover!
Even when the height of the two jumps reached the limit, Ibaka's right palm still couldn't touch the ball.
He had never seen a player jump so high!
Ibaka, who knew he couldn't stop Lin Tian, could only pat Lin Tian's wrist with one hand and hug Lin Tian with the other.
Even if you lose a foul, you must not let this ball score!
Snapped!
Ibaka slapped Lin Tian's wrist so much that Lin Tian grinned in pain.
But he kept the ball in his hand, still gritted his teeth, and smashed the ball into the basket hard!
boom!
beep!
The sound of Lin Tian's successful dunk rang almost at the same time as the referee's whistle.
Whoa!
In the huge Pisacek Energy Center, the fans were full of exclamations!In their minds, Thunderclap's most reliable defensive champion was dunked by Lin Tiange again!
Under tremendous pressure, the referee made a penalty gesture, announcing that the dunk was valid, it was 2+1!
Ibaka was like a deflated ball, looking forward with a slightly confused look.
As a player with strong self-esteem, the last thing Ibaka can bear on the court is being dunked by his opponent.
Today, he has lost face to his grandma's house.
Such a foul can't stop Lin Tian, so what good defense does he have against Lin Tian?
"Nice!" Nick Young yelled, "Nice job! Lin! They can't guard against you!"
Howard and Kobe also approached and high-fived Lin Tian. After the high-five between Howard and Lin Tian, he turned his head to Ibaka and said meaningfully: "Dude! You shouldn't mess with him! You pissed him off.
"Shut up your stinky mouth! You don't want to win today!" Ibaka suffered a loss on the court, but his temper was still unforgiving.
It wasn't until Durant walked over and patted him on the back that his mood improved a little.
Donovan on the sidelines was already scratching his head anxiously.
Because of the number of fouls by Ibaka, it has reached 4 times!
Since coaching the Thunder this season, Donovan has also figured out the temper of each player.
Ibaka has never been a very easy player to get along with, and when his anger comes up, it is difficult to reason.
Being humiliated again and again by this kid from China, he worried that Ibaka would continue to foul.
Therefore, when Lin Tian stood at the free throw line, Donovan called a timeout and replaced Ibaka.
When Ibaka was replaced, he gave Donovan a high-five despite the dissatisfied expression on his face.
Donovan reminded: "Serge, you need to calm down for a while."
Ibaka shook his head: "I'm calm enough!"
With Ibaka off the field, the Thunder sent Nick Collison at the fourth.
This person is in the same class as James, and has been with the Thunder since 2003, when the Thunder were still called the Sonics.
If nothing else, Nick Collison will retire after this season.
The Thunder will also retire his jersey. By then, he will be the first player in the history of the Thunder to retire his jersey.
Of course, this is a story.
Nick Collison, who is 36 years old this year, has provided little help to the Thunder.
He was facing Lin Tian!
Such a slow and defenseless player is simply giving Lin Tian points!
Lin Tian didn't miss such an opportunity, and hit the opponent's defense one after another.
Not only did the Lakers catch up, but they also quickly overtook the Thunder.
Donovan was helpless and could only let Nick Collison, who played less than 3 minutes, sit back on the bench, and Ibaka returned to the court.
At the same time, he kept telling Ibaka not to foul again.
The more Ibaka doesn't want to foul, the sooner Lin Tian wants Ibaka.
Ibaka, who had 4 fouls in his hand, played timidly and couldn't let go of his hands and feet when defending.
So much so that after the third quarter, the Lakers had already led by 7 points.
During the break, the Thunder's bench seemed to be a pool of stagnant water.
Westbrook kept wiping his sweat with a towel, and Durant held a water bottle with erratic eyes.
What they didn't expect was that, as the third in the West, they would be forced to this position by the Lakers!
You know, they have only one goal this season, and that is the championship.
After the start of the final quarter, Lin Tian still did not rest.
Thunder also gave up resting with both hands, and chose to finish the last quarter with all their strength.
Although everyone's physical fitness is not as good as the first three quarters, the defensive strength has not decreased, but has increased!
You can't fight fast, you can only fight positional warfare.
Durant's strong individual singles ability was fully demonstrated in the first half of the final quarter.
Facing Tucker's aggressive defense, he made mid-range shots again and again, with a very high hit rate.
Westbrook also played extremely patiently. Facing the aggressive Nick Young, he never made a shot without full confidence.
Under the super offensive firepower of the Thunder's two juniors, the Thunder chased the score back.
The Lakers' offense still relies on Lin Tian to organize.
Lin Tian, who was irritated by Ibaka in the third quarter, was still full of fighting spirit in the fourth quarter.
To his surprise, the Thunder reduced their double-teaming and instead increased their defense against Nick Young and others.
Ibaka can't defend Lin Tian, so let Durant defend!After Durant defended twice, he asked Robertson to defend again.
Several people fought against Lin Tian back and forth, which also exhausted Lin Tian's physical strength rapidly.
After a while, Lin Tian's whole body was soaked.
He started passing the ball to his teammates.
But the Thunder defended very well, leaving Nick Young, Tucker and others with almost no chance to open.
Their style of play is often to simply dribble the ball twice after receiving a pass from Lin Tian, and it is already difficult to think of the ball, and they can only force a shot in the end.
Such a shot is destined to not be very effective.
There is no way, if the teammates can't make the shot, Lin Tian still has to do it himself.
Step-back three-pointers, emergency stop jumpers, mid-range shots with pull-ups, throws after breakthroughs...
Under the strict defense of the Thunder, Angel Lin showed his 36 martial arts.
Whether it is Iverson or Anthony's offensive methods, he has used them vividly.
But even so, his hit rate is less than 50%!
The Thunder focused on the success rate in this quarter. Westbrook gave it to Durant if he had no chance, and Durant gave it back to Westbrook if he had no chance.
The two cooperated very well, but the Lakers didn't have a good way to defend them.
After playing for more than 4 minutes in the last quarter, Lin Tian was exhausted enough, and Scott called a timeout.
When Lin Tian returned to the bench, the tense atmosphere spread.
They are currently 3 points behind the Thunder, which doesn't seem like much, but the Thunder seems to have mastered a coup against them.
Scott also knew that Lin Tian was extremely exhausted now.
He arranged several offensive tactics for Nick Young and Howard. After the timeout ended, the players hurried back to the court.
After the game started, the Lakers moved in strict accordance with Scott's tactics, giving Nick Young and Howard a chance to play singles.
But the two didn't seize the opportunity and both missed the shot.
At this time, the Thunder's deep heritage advantage was revealed.
When they were in the offensive round, they took every step and began to delay the offensive time.
In the last few seconds of offensive time, Durant or Westbrook will finish it.
The Lakers played very passively, and Lin Tian was exhausted. Some Kobe fans in the arena shook their heads frequently.
"Damn! Can't the rest of the Lakers stand up? You can't win the game by yourself!"
"Howard's offensive skills are too rough! There are basically no other offensive methods except dunks."
"In the final analysis, the strengths of the two teams are not at the same level, alas!"
After a Howard foul, Nicholson, a die-hard Lakers fan, got up and yelled at the referee.
In addition, he can't do anything for the Lakers.
The cheers in the arena became more and more enthusiastic, which also showed that the Thunder led by more and more points.
The hard power gap between the two sides seems to have been perfectly displayed during this period of time.
In desperation, Scott could only call a timeout again.
Kobe, who had been silent for a whole quarter, suddenly yelled loudly when a group of players came to the bench: "Wake up! We are already 10 points behind! Do you want to go back to Los Angeles with shame? Dwight! Don't play so softly! Block! Squeeze him! Nick! You have to stand up! Throw that damned three-pointer, or she will take off my fucking signature shoes! You have to share the offensive pressure for Lin! Damn it!"
Many Lakers players like to wear Kobe's signature shoes.
Lin Tian sat on the bench panting heavily, and he didn't expect Kobe to explode suddenly.
A group of players were scolded so hard by Kobe, but their eyes were very determined.
Several surrounding cameras also recorded this scene.
Scott was also dumbfounded. He originally planned to take advantage of this timeout to arrange his tactics.
But after Kobe's words, the timeout is over.
After the timeout ended, Kobe returned to play and replaced Clarkson, who had a relatively weak performance throughout the game. .
In the offensive round belonging to the Lakers, Lin Tian controlled the ball, and Kobe reached out and made a motion to ask for the ball.
After passing the ball to Kobe, Lin Tian quickly moved inside, ready to grab a rebound.
Because he knew that even if there were four people double-teaming Kobe, Kobe's character would never pass the ball.
Lin Tian guessed right, Kobe was against Robertson's defense, after a feint, he made a fake shot, tapped Robertson, and made a three-point fadeaway jumper!
Swish!
Three point shot!
Such a picture has rarely been seen this season.
Kobe's personal singles ability cannot be ignored.
After Thunder came over with the dribble, Lin Tian still stood on the weak side and prepared to help defend.
Westbrook played a pick-and-roll with Adams and went straight to the basket.
At this time Howard was taken out, only Lin Tian was in the weak side area.
Lin Tian immediately gave up defending Ibaka and wanted to stop Westbrook.
The aggressive Westbrook saw that it was Lin Tian who was approaching him, and he felt frightened immediately, and passed the ball to Ibaka spiritually.
Ibaka received the pass and didn't have time to dribble, so he was about to dunk.
At this moment, Lin Tian turned around and brought his lateral movement speed to the extreme!
He returned to the basket in the shortest time and took off against Ibaka!
Just as Ibaka was about to dunk the ball into the basket, Lin Tian rushed over and slammed the ball away abruptly!
Whoa!
Beep!
After the audience screamed, the referee's whistle also sounded.
Lin Tian, who gave Ibaka a blood cap, gave Ibaka a hard look.
Lin Tian's teammates quickly ran over and bumped shoulders with him.
This is a shocking one defense and two defenses, and it was successfully defended by Lin Tian.
