Chapter 169: Domineering Boss (First Update!) )

"Boom~"

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"It's me, Darrell." Then came Morey's voice.

Tang Tian's face was happy, Morey came just in time.

Morey entered the office and looked at Tang Tian looking at him with a happy face, as if he was seeing a lover, and his face was slightly red unconsciously.

"I think the referee will give a better decision in the next game." Morey continued.

"Yes, I know."

"You know?"

"Yes, ratings."

The two of them asked and answered, and they smiled heartily, and needless to say, they already knew what they were thinking.

"However, I think we still have to find Mr. Alexander, the core of the league is still 30 owners, and only Alexander's attitude can ensure that the penalty scale for the next game is really fair."

"Yes, you're right." Morey originally just saw Tang Tian shut himself in the office and came over to comfort him, but Tang Tian did think more than him.

Alexander didn't come to Boston, and the two of them communicated on the phone.

The communication was smooth, and as the owner of the team, he naturally didn't want the Rockets to lose in an unfair penalty.

Naturally, this matter will not be made public, but the next day, Alexander replied to Morey and Tang Tian, and the league will put pressure on the referees' union, and the penalty scale for the fourth game will be changed.

That's the best news.

Game 5 of the series continues in Boston, where it will be the "Battle of Kings Mountain" between the two sides and the last home of the Finals here.

If the Celtics can win the game to make it three in a row, then they will have two match points straight to the title.

The atmosphere at the North Shore Gardens Arena before the game was amazing, and Boston fans were going crazy at the last home court.

"Don't focus on the penalties, play your game and win this game!" Before the game started, Tang Tian pulled the players and shouted.

The penalty is normal, as long as the Rockets play at a high level, winning the game is definitely not a problem.

Both sides continued to start, with both teams retaining the same starting line-up from the previous two games.

Yao Ming gave the Rockets the first chance to attack.

Millsap continued to play with his back in the low post in accordance with the tactical set-up.

Back hit, turn, back hit, turn again, Millsap squeezed past Brown for a layup.

Brown continued his performance, and although there wasn't much confrontation, he fell to the ground the moment Millsap turned.

Only this time, the referee didn't blow the whistle.

There was boos from the audience.

However, the referee ignored it.

The Celtics' offense, Garnett's block knocked Billups to the ground, and the referee's whistle sounded, signaling a covering foul.

Garnett chased the referee in protest and got a whistle of a warning letter.

There was a black whistle scolding at the scene.

The referee still chose to ignore it.

Tang Tian silently clenched his fists after watching these two rounds, and the penalty scale was finally normal.

The blowing penalty of one offense and one defense also made the Celtics realize that the scale of the penalty has changed.

Brown began to play against Millsap, but he soon discovered that the sophomore on the other side was really strong.

After a few blows, Millsap squeezed Brown's venting hands and dunked them, which boosted the morale of the Rockets.

The Rockets' Big Three have been so good that people tend to selectively ignore Millsap, a sophomore, but it really made him let go of the game and realize how terrifying his scoring explosion was.

Under Tang Tian's training, Millsap's back play and three-point shooting have become more and more stable, coupled with the original half-volley and rebounding ability, even if it is only a second year, his strength is very close to the peak in his previous life, and the only thing he lacks is experience.

Millsap turned the tide on the inside of the Celtics, and the Rockets' offense regained the fluidity of the first two games.

However, the situation on the field was not one-sided.

Despite some compromises on the defensive end, the Celtics Big Three had an exceptionally good hand tonight.

The basket is like a sea, and there is almost no bullet.

The situation on both sides was scorching from the start.

In the final three minutes of the game, the Rockets took a narrow lead of 102-101 as the Celtics went on an offensive turn.

The Rockets did a very good job of defense at this time, and they didn't give the Celtics a chance to attack.

With little time left in the attack, Rondo played the ball to Garnett in the low post.

Garnett leaned on Yao Ming and didn't have a good chance to make a shot.

The two are both technical insiders, and Yao Ming's strength at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is even more advantageous.

Garnett forcibly turned around and made a move, and Yao Ming saw the opportunity and slapped him directly.

"Smack!"

Garnett's shot was fanned off the field.

The scene was in an uproar.

There was a rush of excitement on the Rockets' bench.

But at this moment, the referee's whistle sounded.

The baseline referee directly stretched out his hand to Yao Ming and signaled that his thug had fouled.

"I didn't touch it, I didn't touch it!" Yao Ming ran directly in front of the referee this time.

Not only Yao Ming, but also the other players on the Rockets on the court also reminded that this was a good risk.

Even Garnett himself, who was still shaking his head in frustration a second ago, didn't expect it at all.

"Video replay, video replay!" Tang Tian was also quite angry at this time, this was a fair game, and such a penalty at the last moment was as excessive as the previous two games.

"Two minutes away, no replay, go back!" The referee put down the whistle and stretched out his hand to signal Tang Tian to retreat.

The NBA has rules that teams can offer to watch the video replay within two minutes before the end of the game, but outside of two minutes, it is the referee's decision to watch it or not.

But this ball is crucial, and if it counts, it was Yao Ming's fifth foul of the game.

With three minutes left in the game, Yao's five fouls on the Rockets' defensive blow will be fatal.

Tang Tian's expression suddenly became cold at this time: "You know the significance of this game, the referee union must have reminded you, do you want to give me a fair punishment, or do you want to lose your job?" ”

Tang Tian's words were very cold, and it was no longer a protest, but a threat.

The linesman didn't expect Tang Tian to talk like this, he was stunned for a while before he remembered that he was the referee, put the whistle to his mouth and blew Tang Tian for a technical foul.

The scene burst into cheers.

However, what the referee didn't expect was that Tang Tian's expression was still cold, so cold that Cole and Thibodeau behind him didn't dare to pull him.

The referee was a little shocked by Tang Tian's aura.

In the end, he is just a referee, and Tang Tian is already a champion coach.

"Stand back, stand back, we'll go watch the video." The referee finally lowers the whistle.

Tang Tian walked back to the bench and sat down by himself at this time.

The referees watched the footage and finally determined that the ball was a good one, and after some discussion, it was decided to change the decision, and Yao Ming's fifth foul was cancelled.

There was a stirring at the scene.

The camera was given to Tang Tian, and the fans found that the young, always low-key and humble coach had a cold and scary face, and they originally wanted to shout, but they couldn't make a sound at this time.
