"The game is on, the Kings are still continuing their previous lineup, whether Lee can recover from the outside is still a guarantee of whether the Kings' starting lineup is smooth offensively, and if Lee's shooting is still as bad as in the previous games, DeMarcus and Tyrek will be heavily defended under the basket."

Taking advantage of the gap between the start of the game, Jerry Reynolds and Grant Napier chatted on the sidelines.

"Yes, now let's take a look at the King's attack!"

Cousins forced Lopez to give the Kings the first offense, and Evans dribbled to halfcourt and put the ball in Cousins' hands, then took it back with Thompson's screen.

With a shake after receiving the ball, Evans found space next to Deron Williams and dribbled towards the basket.

The Nets' defense immediately contracted, Evans did not rush to pass the ball, and broke through to the box to get caught in the box, and Evans passed the ball out and into the hands of Cousins.

Cousins received the ball and his mid-range jumper was interfered with by Garnett, who was defending in time, and the ball bounced out of the basket.

The Nets controlled the rebound, and after Williams dribbled to the halfcourt, the ball went directly to Lopez on the inside, and Lopez received the ball under the basket and singled Cousins, hooking up to score 2 points.

The King's offense, still Cousins mentioned high, Evans looked for an opportunity to cut to the basket, this time, Evans chose to attack on his own, but was interfered by Lopez's defense, and the layup also missed.

Fortunately, the Kings immediately stopped the Nets' offense.

In the case of the Nets consciously suppressing the rhythm, the offensive and defensive rhythm of the two teams is not fast, but the score is gradually pulling away.

At four minutes into the first quarter, the score was 10-4, and the Kings had just two goals in four minutes.

"The Kings have gone wrong offensively, and I think Rick Adelman needs to call a timeout to make ......adjustments," Jerry Reynolds said on the sidelines.

Adelman was also thinking about the problem, and the Kings' offense did go wrong, and he opened the game with Cousins in the high post and Evans attacking the basket. The players on the court did carry out such tactics, but both Evans' offense under the basket and Cousins' shooting in the high post were heavily defended by the Nets.

Evans also passed the ball to Thompson and Iguodala, but the two were not in good shape today, Thompson was not known for his offense, and Iguodala didn't seem to have found his touch on the outside today.

As for Li Tian, except for the transition just after halftime, he basically hasn't received the ball today.

"Lee?" Adelman's gaze swept over Li Tian, who was standing outside the three-point line, remembering that Li Tian seemed to be shooting very well in the warm-up before, and thinking about whether to put the end of the offense on Li Tian.

In the middle of the game, Lopez's attack caused a foul on Thompson, who was making up the defense, and Adelman called a timeout to take advantage of the opportunity.

Walking to the sidelines, Li Tian's brows furrowed inadvertently, it seems that a large number of shots in the previous games with poor hand felt did leave a bad impression on his teammates, just a few times his chances were not bad, but he did not receive Evans' pass.

"Next, we need to adjust our attacking tactics." Several players walked to the sidelines, and Adelman immediately said, "Tyrek, you keep pushing inside, but remember to pass the ball out." Andre, Jason, you leave this piece free, DeMarcus, you raise the high position, cover for Lee. ”

Under the surprised gazes of several players, Adelman circled the area from the top of the arc to the bottom 45 three-point line, and turned to Li Tian and said, "Lee, look for an opportunity to run to this area, use DeMarcus's cover to shake off the defender and receive Tyreck's pass to complete the shot." ”

"Questions?" Speaking of this, Adelman raised his head and looked at Li Tian.

"Nope!" Li Tian shook his head, and then said in a firm tone: "Don't worry, coach, I will throw the ball in." ”

"Good!" Adelman nodded, then looked at the other four starters and asked, "Do you understand?" ”

"Understood!" Despite some doubts about Adelman's arrangement, several players nodded in reply.

At this time, the timeout time has ended, and several players are walking towards the court, Evans and Li Tian have a good relationship after all, patted Li Tian and said with a smile: "Li, it seems that I haven't had ten assists for a long time, but I think you should be able to help me get it today." ”

"Of course, don't worry, give me the ball, Tyrek, and you'll get an assist." Li Tian also said with a smile that he was not angry at Evans for not passing the ball before, after all, his hand was really bad before.

Evans nodded and didn't speak, and he didn't know if he believed Li Tian's words. Since Adelman has arranged Li Tian as the main point of attack, Evans will naturally choose to execute.

However, Adelman's arrangement made several Kings players on the sidelines mutter, especially Thomas, who had taunted Li Tian before the game, and at this time, in addition to surprise, he couldn't help but gloat.

"If this kid doesn't score a few shots, he will be replaced."

The Kings attacked, and after Lopez hit one of two free throws, the score became 11:4, a 7-point difference.

After Evans dribbled to the halfcourt, the Nets still chose to shrink the defense, which was also arranged by Nets head coach Kidd during the timeout, and if the Kings did not change players, the Nets continued to maintain the previous defensive strategy.

Staying in the bottom corner on the left side, Li Tian waited for the rest of the court to act, Evans passed the ball to Iguodala to transition and then took the ball back on, and then began to dribble towards the basket.

At this time, Li Tian also began to run!

Shaking his body to the left, doing the action of running from the bottom line, Li Tian immediately ran to the right side and ran diagonally to the top of the arc.

Johnson didn't follow too closely, and coupled with Thompson's cover in the middle distance, Li Tian easily distanced himself from Johnson.

Although Li Tian's recent poor form coach also mentioned before the game, out of the instinct of a veteran, after noticing Li Tian's running, Johnson immediately rushed past Thompson and followed closely.

Running to the top of the arc outside the three-point line, Li Tian did not stop there, continued to move, Li Tian towards the right side of the 45-degree three-point line history.

Cousins cover!

According to Adelman's arrangement, Cousins appeared in time, and with the help of Cousins' cover, Li Tian completely shook off Johnson and appeared outside the three-point line at the bottom of 45 on the right side.

At this time, Evans, who had been pretending to break through, also pushed the ball outside the three-point line for the first time.

"Lee? Rick arranges Lee to attack after a timeout! Jerry Reynolds on the sidelines shouted, surprise in his tone.

There were also many Kings fans who were also surprised, and they also guessed that Adelman would make some adjustments after calling a timeout, but they didn't expect Adelman's adjustment to be Li Tian's offense.

"Can Lee throw in?" Watching Li Tian on the court jump up and down after receiving the ball, the fans of the Kings couldn't help but be a little suspicious, after all, Li Tian's feel in this section is really bad.

Unlike these people's suspicions, Li Tian in the field was full of confidence at this time, jumping up quickly after receiving the ball, and Li Tian threw the ball easily.

"Come in!"

After throwing the ball, Li Tian secretly yelled in his heart, and the person raised his hands to celebrate when he landed! For this goal, he has enough confidence!

"Huh!"

The crisp sound confirmed that Li Tian's self-confidence was not without reason, three-point shot, in!

"Lee hit a three-pointer! On the first shot after the opening, Lee hit a three-point shot! Could it be that the Li Tian we are looking forward to is back? Reynolds shouted again, his voice more surprised than before, or rather, surprise!

"Coax!" The Kings fans on the sidelines were also in a commotion at the moment, they had been looking forward to this scene for a long time, if it weren't for Li Tian's return if he only shot a ball, they would have already cheered loudly!

Li Tian's Kings fans on the sidelines wanted to cheer but didn't cheer to their heart's content, and the corners of their mouths immediately raised slightly.

"I know your worries, but, soon, you'll be able to cheer to your heart's content!"
