Chapter 160: A foul that can't be avoided

"Harden holds the ball, Li Tian is defending ......"

The Rockets attacked, the domestic commentator shouted again, the king did not change the defense again, after Harden came to the half, it was still Li Tian who stopped in front of him, and the two began to match each other in the real sense, this scene undoubtedly made the domestic fans more excited.

After discovering that the defensive player was Li Tian, Harden's desire to attack also suddenly became strong, Li Tian just scored a goal under his defense is of course the reason, but in fact, he has been thinking about suppressing Li Tian on the offensive end before the game.

"Boy, don't think it's great to rely on the Chinese to get some more All-Star votes, now let me tell you who is the best scoring guard in the West!"

Obviously, Harden was still very unconvinced about the fact that Li Tian had more All-Star votes than himself, so he couldn't help but spray at this time.

Thinking of the counterattack of those fans who supported him on the Internet, Li Tian said proudly: "We have a lot of people in China, what's wrong?" ”

"Humph!" Hearing Li Tian's answer, Harden snorted lightly in his nose, did not speak again, and suddenly started to rush forward, dribbling to the left and starting to break through.

Harden's start was sudden, but Li Tian was also prepared, he knew that the other party liked to break through from the left side, so almost at the same time as Harden started, he also quickly moved his steps to the left.

"Porphyry!" The bodies of the two collided fiercely, and after being hit by Harden's fierce force, Li Tian involuntarily retreated, and Harden, who seized this opportunity and was not too affected, started to rush forward again.

Li Tian has long been accustomed to this scene, and he has been mentally prepared, after all, his physical confrontation is not as good as most quarterbacks in the league, and it is not once or twice that he is pushed away by others in the game.

Quickly moved his feet forward, but this time, Li Tian was no longer able to stop in front of Harden, but stuck to the opponent's side.

Leaning next to Harden, Li Tian followed the opponent's footsteps and moved towards the basket, while also observing the position of his teammates.

Seeing this, Li Tian also had a bottom in his heart, and refocused his attention on Harden.

Harden, who rushed forward, picked up the ball, and Li Tian immediately reached in front of the opponent, ready to interfere with the opponent's shot when Harden jumped to the basket.

At this time, he suddenly found that Harden's hand holding the ball was towards his palm.

"This guy wants to make a foul." Seeing this scene, Li Tian immediately remembered an offensive method that Harden likes to use very much, making fouls. Thinking of this, Li Tian was busy retracting his hand, but he was still a step too slow.

"Smack!" Harden's arm hit Li Tian's palm directly, and at the same time, the ball in his hand also flew out.

"Tick!" The referee's whistle blew shortly after.

"This guy!" Li Tian shook his hand helplessly, he didn't need to look at the referee's gesture to know what was being punished.

Li Tian's hitter foul sent Harden to the free throw line, Harden made two free throws, and the ball returned to the king's hands again, and when it came to the half, Li Tian wanted to reach out and signal Evans to pass the ball, after all, he had won two or three consecutive rounds before, but at this time he found that Evans had dribbled the ball first and attacked directly.

Against Brooks, Evans also has a huge physical advantage, and Evans, who is aware of this, obviously hopes to take advantage of such an opportunity to attack once.

Using his strong body, Evans rushed directly into the three-second zone with Brooks, and then suddenly squeezed Brooks away, while Evansto jumped up for a layup with the ball.

"Coax!"

The basketball flew out of Evans' hand, but it didn't fall into the basket, and Howard suddenly came from behind the side and fanned the basketball with a pegboard, which made the fans at the scene cheer.

The ball was picked up by Brooks, who followed closely, and then quickly thrown into the hands of Harden, who was ready to start rushing forward from the outside.

"The Rockets counterattacked, Harden dribbled forward, and Li Tian was defending ......"

After realizing that the Rockets were going to play a defensive counterattack, Li Tian had already taken the lead in retreating, retreating outside the three-point line to stabilize his footing, his eyes locked on the rushing Harden, no teammates could help him defend at the moment, and the task of defending Harden could only be him.

Harden controlled the ball close to the three-point line, and Li Tian also began to slowly move backwards at this time, with Harden's impact speed, he judged that Harden should not choose to shoot outside the three-point line.

Sure enough, when rushing to the three-point line, Harden continued to rush forward with the ball.

Li Tian kept moving backwards with small steps, but Harden was actively looking for physical contact, and when Li Tian retreated into the three-second zone, Harden took a big step and directly leaned on Li Tian.

At the same time, Harden's body looked staggering, as if he had a very strong physical confrontation, but his long arm always put the ball away from Li Tian's side, and did not give Li Tian a chance to cut the ball.

"Tick!"

Sticking to Harden hard, Li Tian was about to raise his hand to interfere, but suddenly heard the referee's voice.

“cao!” Knowing that Harden's actions once again made the referee blow his defensive foul, Li Tian couldn't help but curse a national curse in his heart, and the hand that was originally about to raise no longer had any scruples, reached out and grabbed Harden's arm, and dragged it to the side.

was dragged by Li Tian, and it was difficult for Harden to shoot normally, anyway, the goal had been achieved, so he threw the ball out casually.

It wasn't until Harden threw the ball out that Li Tian let go of his hand, looked sideways, and found that Harden didn't seem to be angry at all, but walked straight to the free throw line, which made him scold again.

"Li Tian was fouled twice by Harden in a short period of time, but Li Tian did not foul before and can continue to play!"

While the domestic commentator was talking, at this time, Li Tian in the field shook his head and said to Middleton, who stepped forward to switch defenses with him: "It's okay, Chris, I can handle it." ”

Suppressing the little depression in his heart, when Harden made free throws, Li Tian kept thinking about the two rounds that had just clashed, this kind of thing had happened twice in a row, and he couldn't let the third time happen again, at least not the third time in a short period of time, because he still wanted to stay on the court and play against Harden.

When Harden completed the free throw, Li Tian had recovered his composure and jogged towards the front court, Li Tian's eyes swept over Harden, and the defense suffered two losses in a row, which will have to be returned sooner or later, but before that, let's respond from the offense.
