Chapter 359: The hand is on fire
Tang Hao's expression didn't change much, seeing the referee's gesture come out, he followed up to the free throw line, and steadily hit the free throw, helping the Lakers overtake the score. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Hitting this extra free throw, his personal score came to 9 points, and the Lakers only scored a total of 12 points, and the score exploded.
The Suns' offense, Dragic held the ball to the frontcourt, he saw Tang Hao in front of him, didn't think much about it, and gave the ball to Bledsoe.
Bledsoe called on Morris to break through to the basket, but his breakthrough didn't work against the defense.
He couldn't find a chance, but time was running out and he had to get the ball back to Dragic.
Dragic gritted his teeth and forced Tang Hao to burst, almost under the basket, his body pushed against Tang Hao, and used the reaction force to widen the distance between him and Tang Hao, followed by a light throw.
Because of Tang Hao, the lateral distance between the two people is large enough, and he is confident that this ball is unlikely to be blocked again.
But as soon as he was about to make a move, there was a restless sound at the scene.
Because Tang Hao jumped high, relying on the advantage of height, he was stunned to smooth out this horizontal distance.
Dragic was so frightened that he hurriedly raised the arc of his shot.
But even so, the basketball was still rubbed by Tang Hao's fingertips.
Because it was just a finger touch, the ball was not brought out of the field again, and by the time Dragic hit the ground, the ball just fell into his arms.
His face was happy, and he grabbed the ball again, taking advantage of Tang Hao's failure to land, and directly made a reflex layup.
His speed was very fast, but what made him extremely shocked was that he had just made a move, and after Tang Hao landed, he unexpectedly blocked it again.
"Bang!"
Because it was a backhand layup, he didn't have much room for adjustment, and the ball was directly fanned out of the court, and others were knocked out of the court.
A clean cap.
The audience was stunned.
Dragic got up from the ground and smashed his fist into the basketball hoop, and he was really going to explode.
At the beginning of the game, he scored 10 points in a row, and his hand felt hot, but when he came back from this pause, Tang Hao sealed him completely unable to make a move, and the feeling of going from heaven to hell in this moment was really crazy.
Jeff Hornacek saw that Dragic was not in the right mood and reached out to coach a timeout.
After the timeout, he replaced Dragic with Isaiah Thomas "Thomas Jr." and also began to rotate the personnel, replacing Gerard Green and Marcus Morris.
The Lakers, on their part, also let Kobe Bryant and Kelly go off the court.
When Kobe Bryant left the court, the Lakers' offensive focus naturally shifted to Tang Hao.
Hornacek also knew this, and focused on Tang Hao when arranging.
Jeremy Lin tried several times, but did not pass the ball to Tang Hao, so he could only beckon Ed Davis to come up and play the pick-and-roll, and he followed the ball to Nick Young on the outside, who made a direct three-point shot, but the hand was a little worse, the basketball jumped out of the basket, and the ball was pocketed by Marcus Morris of the Suns.
The Suns launched a fast attack, the ball was in the hands of Thomas Jr., he rushed forward at full speed, and the rush was not much slower than Tang Hao, and he rushed to the hinterland of the Lakers, and directly scored 2 points with a low layup.
Tang Hao also noticed Thomas at this time, slightly surprised.
At only 1.75 meters, Thomas Jr. looks very inconspicuous on the court, but his speed and scoring ability are still quite good.
The Lakers' offense, Nick Young turned his back to Thomas Jr. and reached directly for the ball to play alone.
Thomas Jr.'s height is his biggest disadvantage, 1.75 meters is a third-degree cripple in the NBA, and he is 100% targeted on the defensive end.
Jeremy Lin gave the ball in, and Young pressed Thomas to hit it inside.
However, before Young could hit twice, the Suns' help defense came up, and Tucker quickly cut off the ball in his hand.
The Suns played the fast break again, Thomas Jr. received the ball in the half court and advanced quickly, faced Jeremy Lin's defense, a slowdown and then accelerated, and successfully caused the latter's beater foul when he shot.
Walk to the free throw line and hit two free throws steadily.
Thomas Jr. came up and scored four points in a row to help the Suns take a 14-12 lead.
In the Lakers' offensive round, the ball was not given to Tang Hao, and Jeremy Lin chose to force Thomas, but Thomas was quick and poked the ball out of bounds.
The ball was still possessed by the Lakers, but there was not much time left on offense, and in the end, Ed Davis was forced to make a mid-range shot, which also bounced out of the frame.
The rebound was grabbed by the Suns again.
The Suns' offense, the Morris brothers first made a block for Thomas Jr., Thomas's short height played a huge advantage on the offensive end, continuous dodging, like a loach drilled around, and the Lakers' defensive formation was washed away.
Tang Hao stared at little Thomas at this time, and got up to block the latter when he was about to make a move.
However, little Thomas noticed Tang Hao behind him, and forcibly pulled back his shot, and then made a rebound.
Seeing this, Scott got up and called Wayne Ellington, motioning for him to come on and replace Jeremy Lin.
The Lakers' offense, Young's run, caused a defensive foul on Markieff Morris.
The game went into a dead ball, and Ellington came on to replace Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin's normal substitute is Clarkson, Ellington is a standard point guard, and Scott's substitution adjustment is equivalent to directly swinging Tang Hao to point guard.
The intention of doing so was quickly understood by the others.
Scott is preparing for Tang Hao and Thomas Jr. to have a needle-to-wheat battle.
Ellington sent a sideline ball, and Tang Hao finally received the ball.
As soon as Tang Hao received the ball, except for Ed Davis, who was lifted to block and dismantled, everyone else began to spread to the side.
Tang Hao borrowed Davis to block and dismantle, stepped in, and saw that Miles Plumlee, who was changing defenses, was shrinking back, and directly chose to make a quick stop.
In the days when the truce was announced for half a year, under the guidance of Prokopio, Tang Hao conducted special intensive training on his shooting posture.
At this time, the shot is standard, and it can no longer be a standard shot.
Tang Hao's mid-range shot went straight up and down from the basket, and his textbook shot didn't even reach the net.
The audience was shocked.
The Suns' offense, Thomas Jr. in and out, a mid-range shot.
However, the shot was a bit off, hitting the edge of the basket, and the rebound was grabbed by Boozer, who had just come on the court.
Boozer then gave the ball to Tang Hao.
Tang Hao advanced with the ball.
When he got to the front, he beckoned Boozer to block, and in the same position, he followed another emergency stop.
"Huh!"
There was a crisp sound, and there was a shot.
Hornacek couldn't help but touch his chin with his hand at this time.
Although he didn't score for a while in the middle, Tang Hao hadn't missed a goal at the opening scene, and the feeling was not just hot, but hot and smoking.
Tang Hao's excellent defense forced Hornacek to change his defensive strategy, and when the Suns' offense failed, Tang Hao came back with the ball, and the defender in front of him had been changed from Bledsoe to Tucker.
Tucker is the Suns' starting small forward, and he is also the team's defensive spearhead, before Kobe Bryant was his single defense, Kobe Bryant's performance in the first quarter of 4 shots and 1, how much can see his defensive skills.
Tucker stared at Tang Hao, straightening his long arm, interfering with Tang Hao's breakthrough route and blocking his passing route.
Ed Davis mentioned that the three-point line tried to block Tang Hao, but Tucker predicted the position in advance, and as soon as the long arm was fished, he was about to take the opportunity to steal.
However, he obviously underestimated Tang Hao's ability to protect the ball, or Tang Hao's ability to control the ball.
At the moment when he made a move, Tang Hao took the ball back, followed by a right turn, and the whole person passed by Tucker.
The scene was agitated, the ball was in Tang Hao's hand, as if it was sticking to it, such a rapid movement, there was no tendency to fall.
Tucker couldn't make a steal, and after the air pounced, the whole person's center of gravity was unstable and he almost fell to the ground.
After Tang Hao turned around, before the other Suns players returned to defense, he directly pulled out a dry hand with a quick stop.
The audience instinctively went to look at the basket.
"Huh!"
Not surprisingly, Tang Hao's shot once again landed accurately in the bag.
"Keep an eye on people, don't steal, don't try to steal!" Honaszak, who has always been calm, was also annoyed by Tang Hao's performance at this time, and shouted directly at Tucker, his impatience is not for no reason, you must know that Tang Hao, who has exploded them now, is just a rookie!
The Suns' offense, Thomas Jr. dodged left and right with the dribble, and once again rushed the Lakers' defense.
After he shook off Boozer, he suddenly turned around and killed a horse pistol and went straight to the basket.
However, as soon as he made a move, a figure flew from behind Boozer, slapped him directly, and slapped his ball down.
The audience was speechless.
It turned out to be Tang Hao again!
After the first block failure, Tang Hao already knew that he was not much faster than Thomas Jr. if he was more flexible than him, and if he didn't have enough speed and height difference, it would be difficult to block in person, so he used Boozer to cover up this time, so that Thomas Jr. didn't notice him, and then he killed coldly, and this time he really got it.
After the ball was blocked, it fell into the hands of Nick Young near the free throw line, and Young took the ball and turned around to launch a fast break.
However, Yang didn't notice Tucker next to him, and as soon as he dribbled, he was stabbed out of the court by Tucker.
The Lakers' fast break was interrupted, but fortunately, the ball was still there.
Tang Hao received the ball from the sideline, advanced to the frontcourt, handed the ball to Ellington for a while, and then circled the sideline, and ran back to outside the three-point line after opening a certain defensive distance from Tarla.
Ellington's pass followed.
The quality of the pass is a bit poor, after all, Ellington is not a player who is good at passing.
But fortunately, Tang Hao's previous lap shrank the Suns' defense inward, and Marcus Morris rushed out recently to grab the ball, but it was still a little slower.
Tang Hao almost picked up the ball in a posture of picking it up.
As soon as he picked up the ball, he made a move to pass it inside.
Morris gave up his defender in this grab, and he turned around to return to defense.
At the moment when he turned around, Tang Hao took a step back with the ball, and after his feet fell back to the three-point line, he jumped directly.
The scene was in an uproar.
This time, Tang Hao completely deceived Morris with a feint, and the action was fast, and Tucker, who was chasing and defending, didn't have time to jump.
What's worse is that this is a three-point shot!
Tang Hao's shooting posture is still textbook-like, his eyes are aimed at the direction of the basket, and his arms are extremely soft.
The basketball flew out of his hand and crossed a rainbow parabola.
Flying and falling straight towards the basket.
"Huh!"
There was a crisp sound, and the audience was instantly dumbfounded.
9-0, after Scott adjusted Tang Hao from a point guard to a point guard, he personally played a wave of offensive climax, and the score changed from 12-16 to 21-16 in one fell swoop, already leading the Suns by 5 points.
And he personally, the score of this quarter of the game has reached 18 points, an extremely exaggerated data, you must know that there are still more than 4 minutes left in this quarter.
And what's even more incredible is his shooting rate, 8 of 8 shots so far, which is outrageously accurate.
"Don's hand feels hot like the sun tonight. Even the commentators at the scene were impressed by Tang Hao's magical performance at this time.
Hornassark finally couldn't take it anymore and he replaced Thomas Jr. with Gerald Green.
On the Suns' offense, Bledsoe finally showed his ability to succeed Paul and scored a difficult shot.
When Tang Hao came over with the ball again, Green and Tucker directly bet on it.
One Tucker isn't enough, so add another Grimm!
Hornacek, this is life or death, and Tang Hao is going to pinch this.
Tucker and Green both moved fast, and Bledsoe also had a tendency to come over to help defend at any time, Tang Hao tried a few times but didn't have a chance, and he followed up and threw the ball to Nick Young in the open space.
Yang shot directly at this time.
With a "bang", Yang finally hit his first goal of the game.
In the next few rounds, the Suns continued to wrap Tang Hao, but Tang Hao had the power to penetrate Yang in 100 steps, and he saw the running position of his teammates on the court very clearly, and several passes were very accurate, and his teammates felt good, and hit again and again.
On the Suns' side, they just relied on Bledsoe and Markieff Morris to play hard, and the effect was not ideal.
With only about half a minute left in the first quarter, the Lakers had already led the Suns by a full 10 points, 31-21.
The Lakers' final offense.
Tang Hao dribbled to the front court and encountered a double bag again, he made a fake move to pass the ball to the right, and after the deceived Green turned his head to the right, he directly chose to shoot three points.
Tucker jumped up with him, and tried to block it with his right hand, but Tang Hao's bouncing advantage was fully revealed, and his shot point Tucker couldn't reach it at all.
Tucker couldn't block it, so he learned the defensive skills of the famous defensive player Sean Battier, and when he put his hand on Tang Hao's face, he directly came to cover his eyes.
However, Tang Hao's power of piercing Yang in a hundred steps was able to shoot the arrow target blindfolded at the beginning, and the impact of the blindfold in front of him was simply negligible.
"Huh!"
After the basketball crossed a parabola, it fell into the pocket again!
The audience was really stunned this time.
You know, this is Tang Hao's 21st point in this game!
It's crazy that this happened to a rookie.
Bledsoe's eyes were red at this time, and he turned around, and when there were about seven seconds left, he rushed inside with a block from Markieff Morris, and met Boozer's defense, and made a pull-bar spin layup in the air.
The ball was extremely difficult, and after pulling it back, the other person was knocked away, but before the person lost his balance, he successfully threw the ball.
"Huh!"
The referee's whistle also sounded, it was a beautiful 2+1!
The audience instantly let out a super-large decibel cheer, and after Bledsoe got up, he also beat his chest excitedly, shouting and screaming.
It was quite a big hit for the home fans.
Bradeso walks to the free throw line.
This shot was a little shorter, and it was picked up by Nick Young of the Lakers, and he threw it to Tang Hao on the outside.
At this time, there were less than 2 seconds left until the end of the first quarter.
Tang Hao dribbled the ball twice, and as soon as the person crossed the middle line, the whole person jumped up directly, and the ball in his hand was also thrown out.
Countless pairs of eyes on the scene were all aimed at the basketball that was spinning across half court at the same time.
The basketball is delivered to the highest point above the three-point line, and then it begins to fall with a precise angle.
The expressions of the audience were already completely confused.
"Toot!"
"Huh!"
The red light on the sidelines came on, and the basketball crashed into the hoop.
"Oh my God, look there, his hands are on fire!" the narrator couldn't help but shout.
