Chapter 33: First Round, Win!
"Rookie, you're finally on the field, have you washed your ass?" As soon as he faced Li Tian, Eric Gordon said with a smile.
"What, are you going to help lick it clean?" Li Tian looked at Gordon's expression that seemed to have taken his own, sneered in his heart, and replied in his mouth, "Helping people lick their buttocks, this is really a special hobby." ”
"Boy, what did you say?" Gordon's expression, which was still full of playfulness, changed, and said coldly.
Li Tian was not frightened, and said casually: "It turns out that you like to listen to other people's praise so much, I said that your hobby of helping others lick their butts is really unique." ”
While speaking, Li Tian did not forget to make an exaggerated expression to express his shock.
“FUC*K!” Li Tian's response and expression immediately angered Gordon, and he burst into a foul mouth, and Gordon immediately reached out and took the basketball in Vasquith's hand.
"Rookie, next, I'll humiliate you!" With that, Gordon smashed the ball to the floor and suddenly lunged to the left.
It has to be said that Gordon's scoring ability is excellent, although his height is slightly lacking in the shooting guard position, but he has a certain level of both breakthrough and shooting, but his problem is that he is prone to injury, only played 9 games last season, and also missed the first two months of this season due to injury.
Injuries have made Gordon less explosive than when he first entered the league, but even so, his explosiveness is very good at the shooting guard position, stronger than Mayo in the previous game.
Li Tian also understands this, so he pays attention to Gordon's breakthrough, of course, he will not forget the opponent's shot, compared to the breakthrough, Gordon's shot is more lethal.
Gordon rushed forward, and Li Tian, who was already ready to take a half step back, immediately stepped up, not giving the other party a chance to fully start.
Gordon's breakthrough pace is not too big, as long as he doesn't let the other party completely rush up, Li Tian is confident that he can follow the other party. As for the other party's strength, it is better, but it is not the kind of very perverted strong, and Li Tian has enough experience to deal with it.
"Porphyry!" After the two bodies made contact, Gordon's breakthrough stopped, Li Tian's footsteps retreated slightly, and then quickly topped up and stuck to Gordon's side.
After finding that there was no step to rush past Li Tian's side, Gordon immediately leaned on Li Tian's body, ready to use his strength to force out. However, Gordon soon discovered the annoyance of Li Tian's defense, Li Tian seemed to be pushed away by his strength, but he kept following him.
Unable to completely get rid of Li Tian, Gordon naturally has some difficulty in getting up to speed, and in this case, he knows very well that even if he rushes inside, he will not get too good offensive opportunities.
"Squeak!" With a sharp stop, Gordon pulled the ball back in front of him, grabbed the ball with his left hand and jumped up to shoot.
At this time, a hand also appeared in front of his eyes, and it was Li Tian's timely reaction to pounce on the interference. The height difference between the two and the difference in arm span are enough for Li Tian to bring effective defensive interference, which makes Gordon's body have to lean back slightly.
"Damn, that's pretty fast!" Throwing the ball out of his hand, Gordon didn't feel very good, which also made him curse in his heart.
"Bang!" Gordon's shot bounced off the basket, and inside, Cousins and Hayes were in position, and then Cousins took the rebound, and then the ball was handed to Thomas.
After defending a ball from Gordon, Li Tian's mind was also on the offense, and the ball was controlled in Thomas's hands, which was a headache for Li Tian, he would not think that Thomas and himself had the possibility of releasing their suspicions, and it was entirely possible that the opponent deliberately did not pass the ball after his successful run.
Thomas, who was holding the ball, flashed his eyes, Li Tian completely guessed his mind, he was not on the field when Li Tian played in the first two games, and Li Tian also had a very good performance on the field, which made Thomas very unhappy, since the two of them were on the court at the same time today, it was impossible for him to say that he was not targeting Li Tian.
"Damn boy, you can't get the ball, I'll see how you behave." Looking at Li Tian, who had already run outside the three-point line in front of him, Thomas said secretly in his heart.
"Isaiah, ball!" At this moment, Thomas suddenly noticed that Evans in front of him was asking for the ball, and after a little hesitation, Thomas still passed the ball to Evans.
Although Thomas has been valued by head coach Smart in the past two seasons and has a certain status in the team, Evans, who entered the NBA in 09, is still the boss of the team, and Thomas naturally does not dare to completely ignore Evans' face.
Seeing the ball in Evans' hands, Li Tian was immediately overjoyed, compared to Thomas, the relationship between him and Evans is undoubtedly much better, from the first two games, it can be seen that if he runs out of the vacant opportunity, Evans is still willing to pass the ball.
Over there, Evans received the ball and rushed directly to the basket, at this time the opposite Evans was the Hornets small forward Aminu, Aminu's height is enough, but in terms of foot movement, it is obviously not as good as Evans. In addition, Evans' start was extremely sudden, and after Evans rushed forward two steps, Aminu was already close to being out of position, and seeing this, the rest of the Hornets' players immediately stepped forward to help defend.
Rushing out of Aminu's defense, Evans plunged headlong into the interior and sank into the bag of the Hornets players, but the Hornets players were not happy at this time, because they found that the basketball in Evans' hands was gone.
"It's so careless." Gordon muttered in his heart, and the person rushed towards Li Tian quickly, he just glanced at Evans just now, and was immediately run away by Li Tian.
The strengthening of Li Tian's running skills is not only in the movement of his feet, but also in the choice of timing, Evans' breakthrough attracts defensive attention and Gordon's temporary lack of attention has given Li Tian an excellent opportunity, such a good opportunity, Li Tian will naturally not give up easily.
Running away from Gordon's side, Li Tian came to the middle distance of the right baseline, which happened to be the position where Evans' line of sight was very easy to sweep, so after seeing Li Tian, Evans immediately pushed the ball over, and his body was stuck in the crowd to continue to attract the attention of defenders.
After receiving the basketball, Li Tian did not hesitate at all, he picked it up and threw it, of course he also saw Gordon rushing over, but the other party obviously couldn't bring him too much interference, which also made Li Tian extremely easy when he shot.
"Huh!" Basketball goes through the net.
Li Tian, who had completed the goal, glanced at Gordon who ran to the front, and then ran to the other side, and in the first round of the two sides, Li Tiansheng won!
"What's the big deal, it's just shit luck." Gordon snorted coldly, said in his heart, and then ran to the other half.
On the sidelines, the Hornets fans are still cheering him on.
"Eric, kill him, kill that rookie!"
