Finding himself replaced by Li Tian, Thomas was very unhappy, he was very dissatisfied with Jim Ain's recent lineup, as a starter, but when to play and when to leave the court decided to be Li Tian or not.

"Shit!" Thomas secretly blew out a foul mouth, and he wasn't even in the mood to listen to what Jim Ian said at this time, "I don't have to play now anyway." ”

"DeMarcus, pull to the high post to cover Tyrek and Lee, and then cut to the basket!"

"Lee, you need to keep running and find opportunities to attack."

"Tyrek ......"

Jim Ain assigned everyone's tasks, then raised his voice again and said, "Retreat faster, faster, don't let those guys on the other side play a fast attack......"

At this time, the sound of the timeout sounded, and Jim Ain put away the tactical board and shouted: "Boys, come on, your new boss is watching your performance!" ”

After Jim Ain's words fell, Li Tian and several players who were going to play walked onto the court, feeling that the fighting spirit of the players was even higher, Jim Ain was very satisfied, in the case of the Rockets' fighting spirit and morale are now completely improved, if the Kings still want to maintain the lead as in the first half, not only in terms of skills and tactics, but also must maintain enough fighting spirit.

Fortunately, Vivek Ranadave watched the game on site today, which kept the fighting spirit of this group of players who were originally ready to take a break and have no intention of fighting.

"Tick!" As the referee blew the whistle, Li Tian sent the ball to Evans on the baseline.

Evans slowly dribbled the ball to the front court, completely suppressed the rhythm, the first part was forced by the Rockets, the King seemed a little impatient, and Jim Ain repeatedly emphasized during the timeout that he must hold down the rhythm and stabilize the position.

Li Tian came to the half-court and lurked near the three-second zone directly, his eyes were fixed on Evans, and after seeing his teammates signal that he could run, Li Tiancai began to run actively.

The footsteps are staggered, Li Tian habitually confuses Harden with a feint, and then he rushes to the left side quickly, in the left high position, where Cousins stands, that is Li Tian's destination, and when he runs to that position, he can use the cover of his teammates.

Speeding up the run, Li Tian rushed to Cousins' side, bypassed Cousins and appeared outside the three-point line, turning around and running right.

But at this time, Asik appeared in front of him, and had to take another step towards the periphery, and Li Tiancai bypassed Asik's side.

But in this delay, Harden also bypassed Cousins from the inside and appeared in front of Li Tian.

found that Li Tian's chances at this time were not very good, and Evans did not pass the ball over again, and looked at the inside.

Cousins quickly cut to the basket after completing the cover for Li Tian, but Asik reacted quickly and moved to the basket, and Asik's position was right between Cousins and Evans, so that Evans could not pass the ball directly.

Jason Thompson was still followed by Greg Smith, and Thorton was also stuck by Parsons, and several Kings players had no offensive opportunities at this time.

Initiating a forward rush, Evans began to dribble and break through on his own after seeing that none of his teammates had a chance to attack.

In front of Evans, Jeremy Lin stood far enough, and Evans' shooting was inconsistent, which made his offense rely more on breakthroughs, so Jeremy Lin also opened up space with Evans, leaving enough buffer distance for himself to defend Evans' breakthrough.

When Evans dribbled to the left, plenty of cushioning space gave Jeremy Lin plenty of time to react, and his feet moved to stop in front of Evans.

"Squeak!" Evans, who was dashing forward, made a sharp stop in front of Jeremy Lin and held the ball in his hands.

Evans was about to make a pullup jumper, but when his eyes swept over the inside, he found that Cousins had gone around to this side and jammed Asik for a good position.

After considering whether to pass the ball to Cousins, Evans's movements also slowed down, and it was to seize the moment of opportunity, Jeremy Lin stepped forward and reached out to slap the basketball that Evans held with both hands.

"Be careful!" Li Tian, who was outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, saw this scene and quickly rushed in the direction where Evans was, shouting to remind Evans.

Evans' reaction was not slow, almost at the same time as Jeremy Lin waved his hand, Evans reacted, although the basketball fell from his hand, but Evans bent down to pick up the ball as soon as possible.

While Evans picked up the ball, Jeremy Lin's hand also reached out, and the two of them flicked the ball at the same time to make the basketball roll directly to the side.

"Lee!"

On the sidelines, the Kings fans who thought the team was going to make a mistake were taken aback by the scene in the court, and they were relieved when they saw Li Tian quickly rushing to the landing point of the ball and catching the basketball.

Li Tian picked up the ball and just stood up straight, Harden had already posted it, not giving Li Tian the slightest room to act.

"Watch the time!" On the sidelines, Jim Ain reminded loudly that at this time, there were only 5 seconds left in the offensive time.

"Li Tian got the ball, pay attention to the offensive time!" At home, the commentators are also shouting.

At this moment, Li Tian has realized that there is not much time left to attack, but he can't find the space to shoot when he is stuck by Harden.

Turning his eyes, the ball in Li Tian's hand came out and stuffed it to Evans not far away.

"What a selfish guy who throws the ball at someone else when he can't attack, I really don't understand why Teric likes to partner with this guy."

On the sidelines, after seeing Li Tian pass the ball to Evans on the field, Thomas, who was originally upset because he was replaced by Li Tian, couldn't help but sneer at this time.

Quite a few fans apparently felt the same way, even though they didn't say it.

"Li Tian is not good at attacking with the ball, hand the ball to Evans......" The domestic commentator is preparing to explain Li Tian's pass at the moment.

Dump the pot on someone else? This is not Li Tian's style!

However, Li Tian in the field had already explained with his actions at this time.

Knowing that this ball was crucial, Li Tian, who was stuck by Harden and had no room to shoot, gave up the idea of forcibly shooting indiscriminately, and after throwing the ball to Evans, Li Tian quickly retreated and opened the distance between Harden, and then quickly moved his footsteps and flashed to the three-point line behind Evans.

"Ball!" While his foot landed outside the three-point line, Li Tian beckoned Evans to ask for the ball, and at this time, there were only 2 seconds left in the offensive time!

Finally understood what Li Tian had in mind, Evans passed the ball over as soon as possible, and Harden rushed over quickly.

"Hurry up, there's no time!" Seeing that the ball was guided again, the Kings fans on the sidelines couldn't help but shout anxiously.

Jump!

Almost at the same moment when the ball arrived, Li Tian jumped up in the air, there was not much time to adjust, there was not much time left to attack, and Harden had already followed closely to defend, Li Tian did not dare to hesitate at all!

"Li Tian shot! After giving the ball to Evans for the transition, Li Tian took the ball back and shot! ”

The commentator who understood it in the domestic live broadcast room hurriedly changed his voice and shouted.

At the same time as Li Tian jumped, Harden had also come to Li Tian's side and raised his hand to interfere, which made McHale on the sidelines very satisfied, and the Rockets were almost close to success if they were able to press the Kings like this defense.

And Jim Ain is staring at Li Tian who is jumping up in the field at the moment, and it is undoubtedly extremely difficult for Li Tianwei to score at this time, but Jim Ain still holds on to this hope, for the Kings who have completely fallen into passivity, this offense is really important.

Under everyone's gaze, Li Tian shot!

The basketball attracted everyone's attention the moment it flew out, and seeing the basketball flying straight towards the basket, the eyes of all Kings fans became brighter and brighter, and they were ready to make a sound at any time.

Until......

"Huh!" Basketball breaks through the net.

"Coax!" The Sleep Train Arena was instantly overwhelmed by loud cheers, and the Kings fans stood up with applause and shouted excitedly into the arena.

"Beautiful! Well done! "Awesome, man!"

"The ball is in! Li Tian hit a three-point shot that pressed the whistle, a very crucial shot! The same shouting was also returned to the domestic commentator.

And on the sidelines, the moment the basketball entered the hoop, Jim Ain swung his fist hard.

“YES！”

No wonder Jim Ain is also a little excited, Li Tian's shot is too important, the key thing is that this is still a three-point shot!

As for Isaiah Thomas, who was completely wrong, he had to mutter, "Shit! ”
