Chapter 181: Steal Master!

Lillard was on the ball to halftime and was on the edge of the three-point line at the top of the arc, Aldridge mentioned the high post, Robin Lopez was on the right mid-range, and the other two Trail Blazers perimeter players started running.

Following Matthews, Li Tian came from the bottom corner of the right side to the three-second zone of the left baseline, and Batum, the small forward of the Trail Blazers, had already taken the ball from Lillard outside the left three-point line.

After seeing Matthews come to the left baseline outside the three-second zone, Batum raised his hand and sent the ball to Matthews's hand, and Li Tian, who followed closely, also pasted it as soon as Matthews received the ball.

For the offensive play of the Trailblazers, Li Tian did not feel too abrupt, and in the pre-game tactical arrangement, Adelman had already arranged a defense for such an offense.

Because Alder is so good at mid-range shooting in Richie, the Trail Blazers will often pull him to the high post and let two players on the forward line go to the low post single. Batum, the two balls on the Trail Blazers' forward lineback, is tall and long-armed, while Matthews is physically strong and has a low-post single.

Matthews is not the first time to play against Li Tian, before the game, the coaching staff also studied, he knew that Li Tian's physical confrontation was not as good as his own, so he did not hesitate after getting the ball, and directly leaned back and squeezed heavily on Li Tian's body.

"Porphyry!" In terms of physical confrontation, Li Tian is indeed not Matthews's opponent, and he was forced to retreat again and again by Matthews's continuous back-to-back, and Li Tian quickly pasted it again and again.

With one foot in the three-second zone, Matthews picked up the ball and didn't continue to squeeze in.

Li Tian immediately moved a small step towards the bottom line, stuck the bottom line position, and prevented Matthews from turning around from the bottom line.

Feeling that Li Tian's power behind him was in the direction of the bottom line, Matthews, who was holding the ball, immediately turned to the left side, ready to attack from the upper line.

However, Matthews had barely turned around when he noticed an additional figure beside him.

Bag clip! When Matthews turned, according to Adelman's arrangement, Cousins returned to the basket and hit with Li Tian.

"Bag clip?" Finding himself caught between the two, Matthews was also slightly stunned, he didn't expect that the king would choose to trap him, and it was in the first round after the opening.

Unprepared, Matthews was caught between Lee and Cousins, and he tried to pass the ball to Robinson, who was already free, but couldn't pass it, and in fact he couldn't even find the way to pass the ball now.

"Ball!" When Matthews was embarrassed, he finally heard the voice of his teammate, and it was Batum who stepped forward to answer.

Batum's response was undoubtedly a savior for Matthews, and without thinking about it, he immediately pushed the ball he was holding towards Batum with both hands.

Beside Matthews, Li Tian also heard Batum's voice, and his body immediately left the entanglement with Matthews and took a small half step, and Li Tian's action was not discovered by Matthews, who was in a hurry to pass the ball out.

"Pass, no way!"

At the same time as Matthews passed the ball, Li Tian suddenly rushed out, his long arm reached forward, and his slender palm lightly touched the basketball!

Steals!

Counterattack! When Li Tian touched the ball, Iguodala and Evans were already fast attacking, and at this time, the only Trail Blazers player who could retreat in time was Lillard, although Aldridge was also in the high position near the outside, but his running speed was obviously not comparable to several outside players.

"Oops!" It was found that the ball was not successfully passed, and Matthews and Batum both secretly screamed at the same time.

Batum immediately went after Iguodala, and his run just now shook off Iguodala, but it didn't seem to be a good thing now, because he was really far away from Iguodala.

As for Matthews, he rushed up to prevent Li Tian from launching a fast attack, but Li Tian would not let him get his wish.

Taking a step forward, Li Tian completely copied the ball in his hand, and then pushed forward with both hands, sending the ball to Iguodala in front of him, not giving Matthews any chance to delay at all.

"Bang!"

The Kings didn't waste such a good opportunity when Iguodala tossed the ball high after attracting Lillard's defense, and Evans followed up with an aerial relay dunk!

The first offensive loss in the opening game and let the opponent play a counterattack, the Trail Blazers would rather believe that such an attack and defense was an accident, and only played one round, and they did not want to give up the tactics arranged by the coach so quickly, so in the next round, they almost used the same tactics, Matthews once again received the ball in the low post and singled Li Tian.

This time, Matthews had an extra eye and found that Cousins had stepped forward to pack it again, and he had distributed the ball to Robin Lopez in advance.

However, Lopez's offensive ability is not very good, after receiving a pass from Matthews, he tried to attack the basket directly, but was defended by Cousins, who returned to the defense, and came to the other half, the king's offense was scored again, Li Tian flashed a little space with the help of his teammates' cover and then received the ball and shot, hitting two points.

After two consecutive plays, Lillard, the team's playmaker, gestured to change his offensive tactics, and after possession came to the half, he didn't pass the ball out again, and with Aldridge's blocking, Lillard misplaced Jason Thompson, and then scored two points on a mid-range pullup jumper.

The Trail Blazers returned to their usual tactics, with Lillard and Batum holding the ball, Aldridge blocking and then looking for offensive opportunities by misaligning and splitting the ball.

On the Kings' side, Li Tian's off-ball running and Cousins' empty cutting of several outside players after holding the ball in the high post became the main offensive methods, and each adopted their own best offensive methods, and the success rate was also very good.

At 13:14, at 5 minutes and 36 seconds into the first quarter of the game, Adelman took the initiative to call a timeout by taking advantage of the dead ball on the court.

The NBA needs a pause to play commercials, so even if Adelman doesn't call this timeout, the technical desk will force a timeout on the next dead ball and count it on the Kings as the home team, so when the Kings almost missed by the Trail Blazers, Adelman simply called a timeout himself.

"Cut off their passes, shrink the line, let those guys rush in, and then do a good job of helping ...... inside"

The Kings didn't have much of a problem with offense in the previous period, so during the timeout, Adelman set up more defensive tactics and replaced the more mobile Robinson for Thompson.

The Kings took the lead and Evans forced Lillard to foul and hit two free throws to give the Kings a three-point lead.

The head coach of the Trail Blazers apparently also thought his own team had played well in the previous period, so he didn't adjust his offensive tactics during the timeout, and after Lillard dribbled to the halfcourt, Aldridge stepped forward again to block and pick-and-roll.

With Adelman's advice, Robinson did not wrap Lillard like Thompson did before, but after a slight flash delay bought Evans a little time, Robinson immediately returned to Aldridge's side, and did not give Lillard a chance to share the ball directly with his teammates.

Couldn't get the ball to Aldridge, but Lillard immediately realized that he had a chance to break through, and when Evans didn't stop him again, Lillard dribbled and rushed to the basket.

Beside Lillard, Evans was not able to stop the opponent's breakthrough directly in front of Lillard, but he did not lose position on the side.

And when Lillard hit the three-second zone, he posted that in addition to Evans next to him, Cousins was also eyeing him on one side.

Lopez was not favored by Lillard at close range, and he obviously didn't believe in Lopez's offensive ability, and his eyes were on the outside.

When he saw that the two cores inside and outside were being watched, Matthews and Batum on the Trail Blazers' forward line both began to move outside the three-point line.

Throwing forward, he found that Matthews shook off Li Tian and moved half a step outside the three-point line on the right side of the arc, and Lillard quickly threw the ball out.

However, Lillard apparently didn't realize that he was a little far away from Matthews, and also underestimated Li Tian's reflexes and speed.

Taking a step behind Matthews, after seeing Lillard pass the ball in this direction, Li Tian suddenly accelerated!

"Smack!"

The basketball came to Matthews's side, and Li Tian also happened to appear at this time, his hands reached out, and Li Tianyi hugged the ball directly! Steal!

Aggro! At this time, Li Tian and Matthews were in the outermost position, so after getting the ball, Li Tian did not choose to pass the ball to his teammates, and smashed the ball on the floor while taking a step forward, Li Tian dribbled the ball and rushed to the other side of the half.

On Li Tian's side, Matthews followed closely, but in terms of speed, he didn't have any advantage over Li Tian, although Li Tian had the ball in his hand, Li Tian also had the advantage of being the first to start, and Matthews couldn't directly block it at all.

Matthews didn't act rashly, he followed Li Tian all the way to the three-point line, trying to find an opportunity to defend Li Tian.

"Whoosh!"

Of course, Li Tian also knew Matthews' plan, and after rushing into the free throw line for two steps, Li Tian kicked the soles of his feet on the floor and rose into the air!

Slam dunk! Li Tian chose to throw his body into the air, with the position of the two of them now, even if Matthews jumped up to block, Li Tian believed that the other party had no way to stop him except for fouling!

On Li Tian's side, Matthews also jumped up suddenly, but after looking at his position, he was worried that he would foul Li Tian, but Matthews wisely did not wave his hand, so that Li Tian's dunk did not have any obstacles.

"Li Tian fast break, dunk...... Strike! ”

"Bang!"

The wrist was pressed down, and Li Tian's one-handed ball was buckled into the basket!

Li ...... Sky! The DJ dragged a long tail note and shouted Li Tian's name!

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! Naturally, the fans at home did not hesitate to applaud themselves, and the earth-shattering applause rang out in the stadium!

"Wow!" Reaching out and pounding heavily on his chest, Li Tian retreated towards the other half, while excitedly enjoying the cheers and applause around him.

"Damian!" At this point, the head coach of the Trail Blazers on the sidelines shouted Lillard and then gestured to him.

Lyband nodded, took the serve and came to the half, also making a gesture to his teammate.

After seeing Lillard's gesture, Aldridge, who was about to step forward to block the pick-and-roll, did not step forward again, but moved to the left low post, and then stuck Robinson with his back in the low post.

"Tactics change pretty quickly!"

Following Matthews from the bottom left corner along the baseline, Li Tian said secretly in his heart, at this time he had seen that after the previous attack failed to succeed, the Trail Blazers changed their tactics and let Aldridge fall to the low post and use his height to eat Robinson.

Li Tian was right, Aldridge had just fallen to the low post, and Lillard passed the ball to Aldridge.

Following Matthews's side, he glanced sideways, and found that Cousins and Lopez were staying under the basket, and the thought flashed in his mind, Li Tian stopped continuing to follow Matthews, and suddenly rushed towards Aldridge.

He's going to attack Adelridge when he's defenseless!

Li Tian knew that his move was a bit risky, which is why he made the decision after seeing Cousins under the basket, and he bet that Aldridge would not notice his approach.

Aldridge was preparing to single Robinson at this time, and he didn't know about Li Tian's approach, but Lillard, who was outside the three-point line, had already found out and immediately shouted: "Be careful!" ”

Hearing the shouting of his teammates, Aldridge, who had just smashed the ball on the floor, immediately became alert and quickly picked up the ball, but at this moment, Li Tian, who rushed over, had already arrived!

When Aldridge picked up the ball, Li Tian happened to burst out from Aldridge's side, his palm poked out, and Li Tian cut down like lightning towards the ball!

"Smack!"

"It's done!" Feeling that his palm was touching the ball, Li Tian suddenly roared in his heart, he was right!

Roaring in his heart, Li Tian's movements did not hesitate any longer, he quickly bent over, and reached out to pick up the fallen basketball!

"Coax!" The cheers swept through the stadium like a tidal wave!

"Well done, Lee!" "Fight back, Lee, fight back!"

While the fans at the scene shouted excitedly, in the live broadcast room in China, the live broadcaster also shouted loudly:

"Another steal! Li Tian steals Aldridge! This was his third steal of the quarter! The king fights back! ”

Evans and Lillard have already rushed to the frontcourt, and next to Li Tian, there are no other Trail Blazers players other than Aldridge, who is impossible to keep up with him. Two against one! Li Tian will not let go of such a good opportunity!

Dribbling the ball to the other half, rushing into the three-point line, Li Tian passed the ball to Evans, and then continued to rush forward.

When Li Tian came to the three-second zone, Evans passed the ball back, which made Lillard, who had just moved towards Evans, have to turn to defend Li Tian, but this defense has no effect!

"Go, Terec!"

Glancing at Evans on the side, Li Tian threw the ball high and threw it into the air in front of his teammates.

After completing all this, Li Tian turned around and ran to the other half, and then a sound came from behind him that made the scene boil

"Bang!"

Then, Evans's shout was also heard: "Spread beautifully! ”
