Returning to the court after the timeout, the Raptors took the lead in attacking, and Kyle Lowry did not pass the ball to others after receiving the ball in the half, but chose to single Evans.

For Lowry's choice, neither the Raptors' coach nor the players have any surprises or unhappiness, the rise of the Raptors this season relies on their defense and the players' excellent offensive ability, and they did not play very well in offensive coordination.

Lowry's growth has also been a big factor, as he has improved his scoring by nearly six points and his assists by one this season.

So during this timeout, Casey did not arrange offensive tactics, but focused on defense.

Facing Evans, who was still good defensively, Lowry hit a difficult shot from inside the three-point line after consecutive dribbles from the outside, and the score was rewritten to 39:46.

Thanks to this relatively good offense, although Li Tian scored 10 points in a row, the Raptors were able to keep the difference in single digits.

When coming to the offensive end, Li Tian could clearly feel the Raptors' change in his defense, that is, he didn't let himself catch the ball at all. In addition to Terrence Rose's constant pursuit and close defense, whenever Evans wanted to pass the ball, the rest of the Raptors' players always flashed out to intercept.

However, Li Tian's running position is obviously not so easy to restrict, after the baseline with the help of his teammates' cover, Li Tian quickly ran to the outside of the three-point line on the right side of the arc, and at this time, Terrence Rose also ran closely, but in the position could not prevent Li Tian from receiving the ball.

After seeing this, Evans was about to throw the dribbling ball directly at Li Tian, but at this time, Lowry suddenly flashed out and directly abandoned the front of Evans. Instead, he chose to dodge to the right to interfere with Evans' pass.

Lowry's sudden flash made Evans give up the idea of passing the ball to Li Tian, because Lowry was completely no defensive threat to him at this time.

Suddenly started to rush forward, Evans dribbled directly to the basket, and Lowry's move to interfere with the pass to Li Tian was more like making way for Evans' breakthrough.

After Evans opted to break through, the Raptors' defense quickly shrank, and Lowry followed closely to move inside. At the same time, his eyes kept glancing, ready to make up for the empty space left by his teammates after his teammates helped to defend, and the two Kings' interior players also moved towards the three-second zone.

Of course, some of the Raptors players did not move, and Terrence Rose, who was next to Li Tian, did not move, and he followed Li Tian's side closely to watch out for Evans' breakthrough shot.

Evans rushed to the basket and was confronted by the Raptors' shrinking defense, and instead of attacking on his own, he pushed the ball into the hands of Cousins on the left mid-range.

At this time, Cousins was completely empty, except for Lowry, who rushed over but was still some distance away. The rest of the players were unable to interfere with Cousins.

"Bang!" Faced with such a very good opportunity, Cousins did not take it, and the ball smashed on the basket and bounced out.

Almost at the same time as the basketball smashed on the basket, Li Tian suddenly took a step to the left, as if he was about to rush to the basket. Terrence Ross was also quite alert at this time, and even stopped Li Tian with a horizontal movement for the first time.

However, Li Tian's this is just a feint!

Stop, run! When Terrence Ross dodges in front of him. Li Tian quickly changed direction and rushed towards the bottom right corner.

Li Tian didn't run along the three-point line. He stepped straight into the three-second zone before running diagonally to the bottom right corner.

Terrence Rose, who was beside Li Tian, also reacted quickly, turning sideways to chase the defense, at this time, the role of Li Tian choosing such a running route was reflected, and Rose, who turned sideways, was just about to take a step. found that he was about to crash into Li Tian's body, and the conditioned reflex made him can't help but stop.

At this time, Li Tian seemed to have eyes behind his back, and suddenly accelerated forward, throwing off Terrence Ross and running to the bottom right corner.

Except for Terrence Rose. No one noticed Lee's run, as their attention was drawn to Cousins' shooting and the inside rebounding scramble.

"Cousins missed a really good chance...... Frontcourt rebounds, Kings grabbed frontcourt rebounds, Robinson! ”

Inside, the Raptors had two big men, but they didn't have an advantage in the race for rebounds, Thomas Robinson aggressively rushed to the basket, using his excellent judgment of where the rebounds landed and excellent bounce speed, he took the rebound in front of the two big men of the Raptors.

Robinson's aggressive scramble and results earned him a warm round of applause from the fans, and Robinson's first reaction was to put the ball in the basket and enjoy another cheer.

However, Robinson quickly put this idea aside, and for some time now, Adelman has been instructing him not to rush to shoot after grabbing the rebound in the front court, but to distribute the ball to his teammates to reorganize the offense, although it is a little difficult to force his habits to change, but Robinson is still slowly trying.

At this moment, he suppressed his urge to attack directly, Robinson's gaze looked in the direction close to his side according to Adelman's arrangement, and then he spotted Li Tian who rushed to the bottom corner of the right side!

Realizing that his friend had a very good offensive opportunity, Robinson quickly pushed the ball out.

Another advantage of Li Tian's choice of such a running route is reflected at this time, not choosing to run around the three-point line but directly diagonally to make his running distance shorter, and also save a little time, although this time is very short, but it allows Li Tian, who took the lead in starting, to maintain his advantage in that step.

While rushing to the bottom corner, Li Tian successfully received Robinson's pass!

"Li Tian received a pass and shot directly......"

The hand was hot, and he had already thrown off the defender to receive the pass, Li Tian didn't think about anything else at this time, as soon as the ball fell into his hand, he jumped up quickly! Shooting!

Beside Li Tian, Terrence Rose, who was rushing forward, didn't have time to make other adjustments, he jumped directly with the help of the momentum, and then flew in front of the jumping Li Tian and landed outside the bottom line. Trying to bring a little bit of interference to Li Tian in this way.

However, such interference turned out to be ineffective at all!

"Huh!"

Li Tian's good feel continued, the basketball flew up from the bottom corner, and drilled into the net accurately!

Keep hitting!

"It's in again! All 8 shots! To paraphrase a very classic sentence, tonight for Li Tian, the basket is like an ocean! ”

The domestic commentator shouted excitedly. At the scene, the Kings' fans also began to shout loudly after cheering:

"Lee, go on!"

“Shoooot!”

The fans shouted excitedly, hoping that Li Tian would continue to shoot, and Li Tian, who was in the court, was also happy after looking at his right hand at this time, and he was a little surprised by the good feeling of today's hand.

When Li Tian's hands were so hot, the Raptors' players began to block with all their might, preventing him from having any chance to shoot. In addition to not letting Li Tian catch the ball when running without the ball, even if Li Tian received the ball. Defenders are also direct close defense, and once a teammate blocks and dismantles for Li Tian, the Raptors are directly on the outside.

Under such a tight defense of the Raptors, although the fans at the scene were still looking forward to Li Tian's magical performance, in the next two minutes or so, Li Tian still did not have a chance to shoot, and at this time there was not much time left in the first half.

The Raptors' offense, Lowry pressed the rhythm outside the three-point line. At this time, there are only 28 seconds left in the attack time, this attack. The Raptors will try to run out of 24 seconds so that the Kings have the least amount of time to attack.

So it wasn't until the last 8 seconds of the offensive time that Lowry began to dribble and break through, but Evans did a very good job of defending, tightly jamming the position and not giving Lowry room to break through at all, seeing that the offensive time was approaching. Lowry opted to force his shot from beyond the three-point line.

Lowry was indeed capable, but Evans' height advantage of more than a dozen centimeters and his arm span still caused him a huge distraction, and the basketball bounced off the basket.

The rebound fell into Iguodala's hands, and the next moment he received the rebound. Iguodala pushed the ball out with both hands and sent the ball to the other half.

The Kings defended the Raptors' final attack, and with 4 seconds left, Iguodala made a long pass...... Li Tian! Li Tian caught the ball! Can you attack one? ”

When Lowry made a move, Li Tian was already rushing to the frontcourt, ready to find a chance to complete the last attack, and he was not worried that his departure would give the Raptors more and less opportunities, because his side had just moved, and Terrence Rose immediately followed.

One step outside the three-point line, Li Tian took the pass, and at this time, he only faced Terrence Rose's defense alone!

Although Terrence Rose is not out of position at this time, he is already the weakest defense Li Tian has faced in the past few minutes, and it is still in the fast break where it is easier to get opportunities!

After receiving the ball, he quickly rushed a step to the right, and when he forced Terrence to move his steps slightly behind the right, Li Tian immediately pulled the ball back.

"Squeak!" In the violent friction between the sole of his shoe and the floor, Li Tian stopped his steps and jumped forward!

Pullup jump shot from beyond the three-point line!

"Vote! Li Tian has made a move! ”

The scenes of Li Tian's previous consecutive hits are still in the eyes of the fans, and after seeing Li Tian's shot, both the domestic commentary and the fans at the scene can't help but light up their eyes.

Their eyes were glued to Li Tian, who was shooting against Terrence Rose's defense on the court, and then moved to the orange ball that flew out of his hand until ......

"Huh!"

"It's in again! Li Tian hit a three-point shot! My God, Li Tian feels so good today! 9 of 9 shots in the first half, 100 percent shooting! ”

Li ............ Sky! ”

“wow！ Magical Lee! ”

In the excited shouts of the DJ and fans at the scene, Li Tian raised his hands high, although he did not shout, but there was an undisguised smile on his face.

scored 23 points in the half, Li Tian has no reason to be unhappy with such a performance, the key is that he only shot 9 times! (To be continued......)
