Chapter 129: The King of Wandering?
"It's hard to judge Lee's performance today, maybe the Kings would have been able to secure the victory sooner if he had been able to provide firepower on the offensive end before, but Lee grabbed the rebound and hit his only and most crucial three-pointer of the game after missing a three-pointer in the final minute, allowing the Kings to win without a hitch, and in that regard, he was the hero of the team's victory."
When the players on both sides walked to the locker room after the game, the two commentators on the sidelines were talking about the game, and the topic naturally led to Li Tian.
And what they were talking about was exactly what everyone was thinking about, including Li Tian.
There is no doubt that after missing the shot in front, Li Tian has some pressure in his heart, and at this time he is extremely glad that he grabbed the frontcourt rebound and shot three points at the critical moment.
This three-point shot can be regarded as a blind cat thrown into a dead mouse, or it can be regarded as an adjustment to complete the goal after experiencing a series of missed shots in the front, but these did not hinder the result, that is, the ball was scored after all, and the king won the game.
In fact, Li Tian himself couldn't tell what it was like at that time, he only knew that he was in a very good position at that time, and then with instinct he chose to shoot.
"Hey, Lee, good job!"
"That shot was amazing!"
Li Tian walked into the locker room, and when he passed by his teammates, he heard the friendly voices of Evans and Iguodala, which made his heart feel more and more relaxed, and it seemed that his poor shooting touch today did not disgust his teammates.
"Maybe it's because of the last shot." Li Tian said to himself in his heart, and then he was glad that he had scored that goal again.
Adelman then went to the dressing room, said words of encouragement such as "good job the boys" and "keep up the good work for the next game" as he did after the previous game, and left with the coaching staff.
This game was not open to media reporters in the locker room like the first game, so there were no reporters to bother with it, and after simply cleaning up, the players left the locker room one after another.
"Lee, let's go!"
"Okay, buddy, you go first, I'll be right away." After saying hello to Robinson, Li Tian sat alone in the locker room, carefully thinking about today's game, those shooting choices and the feeling when throwing the ball, and trying to recall the feeling when the last ball was shot, Adelman gave him so many opportunities to help him find his feeling through the game, Li Tian didn't want to waste it.
When Li Tian walked out of the locker room, the players had already finished walking, and walked into the underground parking garage from the player-only passage, and Li Tian was ready to leave.
"Tick!"
At this time, he heard a horn from the side, and when he looked sideways, he saw Agali's sports car.
For Agari, it wasn't too difficult to get into the player-only parking garage. With a slight smile, Li Tian walked towards Ajiali, who had already gotten out of the car at this time and leaned on the door.
Dressed in a pink and black tight-fitting dress with a small cape on the outside, Ajiali is half-leaning on the sports car, with a smile on her face, her beautiful eyes blinking inadvertently, and she is full of style.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Li Tian stepped forward, stopped one step away from Ajiali, and asked with a smile.
"Waiting for you!" Ajiali smiled, and the charm released at that moment made Li Tian almost dare not look directly.
Looking at Li Tian's appearance as if he was about to turn his head away, Ajiali couldn't help laughing again, but she didn't tease Li Tian anymore, and instead praised her: "Li, your performance today is great." ”
"I don't think so." Li Tian smiled helplessly, "Today's shooting feeling is extremely bad, and I almost made the team lose." ”
Although Li Tian has thought very clearly about his performance tonight, he thinks that there is still a distance from greatness, and from the perspective of a bystander, Li Tian believes that his performance today is not praiseworthy.
"But, after all, the team won, didn't it? And you hit a crucial three-pointer. "You don't have to be stressed, no player can guarantee that every night is hot, you've done a great job." ”
"Thank you for your comfort, Agary, I'm not under too much pressure right now, I'm sure I'll be able to get back to shape soon." Li Tian turned to smile and said, he knew what his problem was.
Ajiali nodded, then opened the car door and said, "That's good, I'm leaving!" ”
"What do you mean by this woman?" Li Tian watched Ajiali drive away in a sports car, and he didn't understand too much, could it be that Ajiali deliberately stayed here, just to comfort herself?
Shaking his head, Li Tian walked to his sports car, and then drove off the court.
Back at his residence, Li Tian took a look at the iron book, and after finding that nothing had changed, he began to turn on the computer to browse the news about the NBA, he wanted to see what the outside world said after the game.
Domestic and foreign sports websites have looked, Li Tian found some news reports about himself, for domestic comments, Li Tian turned off after reading a few, the domestic media is undoubtedly still very supportive, most of the news reports are writing, although he feels not good today, but, shot a key ball to help the team win.
In foreign countries, there are also some such voices, but there are also some media accusations that are not very polite, in the column of a famous person on ESPN, Li Tian saw such a report.
"The Kings defeated the Nuggets to win two in a row, but the Chinese Kings didn't have much to praise in this game......"
After the report first talked about the shortcomings of some teams' tactical coordination, the topic turned to the players, and this focused on Li Tian.
Lee, a sophomore who has just been transferred to the starting lineup this season, had a great performance in the last game, but in this game, the Kings' starting point guard clearly did not perform well. He scored 12 points and then paid the price of 13 shots, and while his 35.7 percent shooting didn't seem too bad, he shot just 11 percent from beyond the box and made just 1 of 9. ”
"In the past, his role was as an outside pitcher, but in this game he had a terrible mid-range shot. However, he clearly didn't realize it, and he didn't take any less shots from the outside, which is a red flag, and it looks like the player is very confident in his offense, and of course, that confidence might be a good thing, but, more likely, he could be a prodigal. ”
"Rick Adelman's last-minute line-up was definitely a huge adventure, and while he made the bet today, it doesn't mean it was the right one. So, we still need to discuss whether Lee is a good starter, and is it the right choice for the Kings to expect him to take on the offensive responsibility from the outside? I don't think so, if the sophomore is a prodigal, it's clear that he's better off the bench. ”
"In the next games, the Kings will face more tests, and I believe they will also make more correct choices."
After reading this report back and forth two or three times, Li Tian turned it off, but he remembered most of the words in the report.
"The King of Wandering? Time will tell! Li Tian said softly, then turned off the computer and went to bed.
The next day, Li Tian came to the training hall early and shot! Shooting! Constant shooting!
