64:84, a 20-point difference!

With Li Tian's three-point shot, he not only increased his score to 30, but also widened the gap between the two teams to 20 points, so that the Eagles had to call a timeout again.

"Lee, let's take a break."

Coming to the sidelines, Li Tian was replaced by Adelman, which did not surprise Li Tian, if it weren't for Adelman wanting to establish an absolute advantage in one go, maybe he would have been replaced a long time ago.

In addition to Li Tian, Evans was also replaced, and Adelman replaced Thomas and Thorton.

Although Thomas is nominally the point guard, in reality, it is Iguodala that Adelman hopes to organize the offense at this time.

In the summer, the reason why the Kings traded Iguodala immediately after getting Evans and Li Tian was because they took a fancy to Iguodala's all-round ability, especially his ability to defend and organize offense.

In the current Kings team, except for Evans, the rest of the players are not playmakers, neither Thomas nor Fredette are not strong in organization, and Iguodala is playing the second and third positions, but his organizational skills are very good.

Although Princeton's strategy was initiated by a big man in the high post, it was still necessary to ensure an outside player who could pass the ball on the court.

Thomas and Thorton naturally wanted to make a big play after they came on the court, but before going on the court, Adelman deliberately told the team to follow the established tactics, which made Thomas and the two have to restrain themselves a little and honestly hand the ball to Iguodala or Cousins in the high position.

The training camp is only a month, and it is obviously not easy for the Kings players to fully master Adelman's offensive tactics, plus there is also a run-in with Iguodala in between, Cousins has not yet adapted to the role of the high position, and in the first few rounds after the pause, the Kings were able to follow Adelman's tactics, but after a few rounds, the coordination between several people began to have some problems, and the execution of the tactics began to be discounted.

In fact, during the time Li Tian was on the court before, the king also had such a problem, they would always fall into an offensive disadvantage for a period of time, but because Li Tian felt hot today, and the Eagles' cooperation was not so good, the king caught a lot of opponents' mistakes to play defensive counterattacks, so the score difference will be so big.

After Thomas and Thorton came on the court, the defensive ability of the two was obviously not comparable to that of Li Tian and Evans, which made the Kings' outside defense begin to be lax, and the offense was not as efficient as before, but it allowed the Hawks to play some counterattacks, and the difference narrowed from 20 points to only 14 points.

Cousins held the ball high and took a look at the tactical runs of several teammates who didn't have a good offensive opportunity, and Cousins smashed the ball on the floor and forced Horford directly.

Although the position is center, Cousins does not have a lot of time to attack in the low post, and the follow-up after the block and the frontal ball-handling offense are Cousins' preferred offensive methods.

Cousins does have a very good ability to break through with the ball head-on, and under his strong burst, Horford had to foul to stop Cousins' offense.

Taking advantage of Cousins' free throws, Adelman made another lineup change, bringing on Hayes and Middleton for Thompson and Thorton.

Cousins' two free throws and Adelman's adjustments allowed the Kings to re-stabilize the situation, Hayes had been with the Rockets after all, and had a deeper understanding of Adelman's offensive tactics, and his presence allowed the Kings to better execute Adelman's tactics.

At 74:91, after the third quarter, the Kings still had a 17-point lead.

At the start of the fourth quarter, Adelman finally remembered Robinson, who had not played for a long time, and sent him to replace Cousins, and this year's No. 7 pick McClymer also ushered in the opportunity to play.

Robinson, who returned to the court, was less impatient than he was in the first quarter, and he focused more on his own game of grabbing rebounds.

As for this year's rookie McClymer, it doesn't seem to be adapting to the rhythm of the NBA, and he hasn't performed too well on the court, and the team's offense at this time relies more on Thomas's personal ability and Middleman's shooting.

The Eagles were clearly not willing to rest on their laurels at this time, and they were almost as strong as they could, putting pressure on the Kings both offensively and defensively.

At 86:97, a few minutes later, the difference between the two teams had narrowed to just 11 points.

Adelman called a timeout and brought Evans and Li Tian back on the court, replacing Thomas and McClymer.

Evans ran to the left side of the free throw line to receive a pass from Hayes and broke through to the basket, and with a change of direction in the middle of the line, Evans shook off Teague and into the three-second zone.

The Hawks' defense shrank sharply, and the ball in Evans' hand flew directly to the outside and landed in the hands of Middleton outside the three-point line.

When Middleton received the ball, the Hawks defenders had already made a quick pounce, and Middleton was not greedy, and quickly transferred the ball to Li Tian outside the three-point line at the top of the arc.

The Eagles' defensive rotation at this time was indeed very good, and when Li Tian received the ball, Millsap had already rushed to him.

Dribbling forward, Li Tian shook off Millsap and quickly rushed out.

"Squeak!" Stopped and jumped, and when Millsap turned sideways and rushed forward to block, Li Tian had already jumped up with the ball and shot.

"Bang!" The basketball bounced off the inside of the basket and fell into the net, hitting a two-point shot.

The Eagles knew that Li Tian had an excellent hand in this game, so they were ready to defend as soon as Li Tian came on the court, but with Li Tian's goal, their defense was once again declared a failure.

With the return of Lee and Evans, and the return of Iguodala and Cousins to the court, the Kings' advantage slowly began to expand.

Li Tian is in great shape today, but in fact, the Kings are not the only ones who are in good shape today, Cousins and Evans have also brought a lot of damage to the Hawks.

At 92:110, the difference between the two teams widened again to 18 points in the first 4 minutes of the final game, and the game was basically announced.

In the final 2 minutes, after it was almost confirmed that it was going to enter garbage time, the managers of both teams began to replace the main players one after another.

At 99:116, the game ended, and the Kings finally won the game by 17 points and won the opening game of the new season.

"The game is over, the Kings have won the game, let's take a look at the statistics of both sides, first of all, Li Tian......"

At the end of the game, Li Tian's data naturally became the first object of attention of domestic fans, 24 minutes on the court, Li Tian scored a game-high 36 points, in addition to 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals, this is the data handed over by Li Tian's first game, whether it is the data itself or from the overall efficiency, Li Tian's performance can be summed up in two words, perfect!

Before the start of the new season, the outside world had a lot of doubts about Li Tian, but in his first start, Li Tian responded with a near-perfect performance! We look forward to seeing him do better in the future! ”

"Now, who else said that Li Tian eats soft rice?"

"Didn't those so-called experts say that Li Tian is not suitable for starters? Isn't this a cool face? ”

Listening to the commentator's words, all the fans who supported Li Tian felt extremely happy, and the doubts before the game made them very annoyed, and now, Li Tian's perfect performance has made a powerful counterattack!

"Li Tian is really competitive!" Such a voice sounded in the minds of every fan who supported Li Tian, and they may have foreseen that after this game, it will definitely surprise many people who oppose Li Tian.
