Start without the ball

Chapter 124 Ferguson's Harvest
Harden came to the frontcourt and landed at 45 degrees to the left, supporting Ferguson with his left hand, and asking for the ball from Paul at the top of the arc with his right hand.

Schroeder stepped forward to put pressure, and Paul dribbled the ball flexibly to protect the ball.

At that moment, Ferguson wrapped his right hand around the inside of Harden's left elbow and entangled it.

Harden didn't agree, and pulled Ferguson's arm to his side while shouting to attract the referee's attention.

Ferguson also used his small arm to pull Harden's left arm to his side, but with much less strength.

"drop!"

Hearing the whistle, Harden looked at the referee contentedly, only to see that the referee signaled for a foul!
"He hooked my arm!"

Referee: "I just saw you two tangling with each other and pulling each other's arms."

Brother Deng: "%#@#"

The referee ignored Harden and ran to the technical platform to report.

D'Antoni on the Rockets bench couldn't sit still and stepped forward to negotiate with the referee:
"Can't you see? Ferguson is pulling Harden."

Referee: "Both sides have pulling movements."

This is Harden's second foul. D'Antoni couldn't control his emotions, pointed at the referee and said:

"Let me tell you clearly, it was Ferguson who hooked Harden's arm first!"

The assistant coach saw his partner pointing at the referee and immediately stepped forward to Rade Anthony, but it was too late.

"Drip~"

The anxious referee whistled D'Antoni for a technical foul!
"Refree sucks~"

"Refree sucks~"

"Refree sucks~"

The Rockets fans at the Toyota Center couldn't sit still, and scolded the referee rhythmically. Paul on the field signaled the fans to make their voices louder.

Although the penalty caused dissatisfaction among the fans, the game had to continue. Harden had fouled twice. D'Antoni could only send House and temporarily replaced the ace star.

The same two fouls were also made by Ferguson, but at the moment the Thunder' defensive champion returned triumphantly with a smile on his face.

Donovan patted Ferguson's ass and said:
"Well done! You take a good rest, and the next thing is temporarily handed over to Diallo."

Felton stepped forward to give Ferguson a high five:
"It's really you who actually got Harden down."

Ferguson said proudly: "I finally made trouble for the superstar today."

Felton smiled and asked, "Is it Lee's idea?"

Ferguson: "Well, he promised me that if I do it, he will let me participate in the offense later."

Live broadcast barrage.

"Black whistle!"

"It's not a problem for those upstairs who don't move at all to make black whistles, pull each other and call fouls on both sides."

"Who told Harden to foul Ferguson and hook his arm and pull it hard. If he got rid of Ferguson's arm immediately, nothing would happen."

"Shocked! Harden actually encountered foul trouble."

"Brother Deng has been playing eagle all his life, but he didn't expect to fall into the hands of a rabbit like Ferguson."

"Ferguson's 2 fouls for Harden's 2 fouls is so worth it!"

Li Haoyu gave a thumbs up to Ferguson who was on the bench, and came to the frontcourt to execute a technical free throw. There were boos all over the scene. He had already adapted to the rhythm of the away game. He took a deep breath and calmly set out the basketball.

"Shu~"

10 to 6, the sound of the scene was much quieter after the goal.

The Rockets took a sideline ball, Capela received the ball at the top of the arc, and Paul stepped forward to get the ball back.

Harden and Gordon went off one after another, and when Paul took the lead, he used Capela's cover to get rid of Schroeder.

Adams immediately switched defenses, and after accelerating, Paul shook off Aquaman and made a layup.

10:8.

The Thunder attacked, and Schroeder repeated his old tricks, directing Adams, Grant, and Diallo to the left corner.

Li Haoyu, who was on the left sideline, immediately accelerated, and Schroeder hoisted the ball to the pocket.

Li Haoyu went around to his pocket to catch the basketball, ready to shoot.

After learning the lesson from last time, Green entered the corner pocket from the sidelines in an attempt to cover Li Haoyu from behind.

Grant immediately reminded: "Pay attention behind you!" At the same time, he loosened his arms with Adams, leaving a gap.

Li Haoyu immediately dribbled the ball out of the pocket through the gap. After his teammates left, Grant and Adams held arms again, leaving Green in the pocket.

After leaving the pocket, Li Haoyu encountered the double defense of Tucker and House, and Capela was also eyeing the edge of the three-second zone.

A large number of people gathered in the left corner. For a while, the attention of all the Rockets was attracted to the left corner, and Paul was no exception.

Those who are close to space cut!

Seeing that Paul had been observing the left corner, Schroeder immediately accelerated to the inside.

The teammate has already acted, and Li Haoyu made a high-profile pass to the right side of the basket.

Schroeder was too short to complete the dunk. After jumping up and receiving the pass, he hit the board and scored 2 points, 12 to 8.

Tengxing commentary seat.

Ke Fan: "Li Haoyu's ability to attract defense is too strong now! All Rockets are staring at him."

Yang Yi: "Is there any way to do this? There are so many people in the left corner, and it's such a weird tactic. Anyone else will be attracted to it."

Ke Fan: "I have to say that since Li Haoyu joined, the Thunder team's off-ball ability has improved."

Yang Yi: "Li's presence makes the Thunder's offense as smooth as flowing water, which is pleasing to the eye."

Barrage.

"Thunder's positional performance was really not as good when Guigui was on the court."

"That's why the tortoise is now in the sewer, and the peak tortoise is also very capable of tearing apart the defense single-handedly."

"After several injuries, Westbrook's physical fitness is indeed not as abnormal as the peak. The most serious decline is shooting."

In the rest of the first quarter, Li Haoyu not only scored himself but also attracted defensive assists from his teammates. The Rockets could not stop the Thunder's offensive, and the point difference quickly opened up. At the end of the first quarter, the two sides fought 34 to 22, and the Thunder took the lead. scored 12 points.

On the Rockets bench, De Anton said to Harden and Round Face:

"At the beginning of the second quarter, both of you, remember that you have committed 2 offenses, so pay attention to your movements!"

Gordon: "Coach, it's not that I want to foul, that Lee is disgusting."

Harden patted Gordon's thigh:

"Bro, I understand how you feel. It's really disgusting for him to make fouls like this. Didn't I also sit on the sidelines for nearly a quarter? Be careful when defending in the next game, and don't give him another chance to make fouls. .”

Gordon: "I understand, but why does it feel weird coming out of your mouth?"

On the other side, everyone on the Thunder's bench and leading the score was in a good mood.

Ferguson: "You don't know Harden's expression after seeing the foul on both sides. The surprised Denden opened his mouth so wide that he could stuff an egg."

Seeing that his teammates were a little swollen, Li Haoyu quickly vaccinated them:
"Don't be too happy, the two of them should be back in the second quarter, and the next game will not be easy."

Donovan: "Lee is right. The two of them on the court at the same time will bring us a lot of trouble. These 12 points are really not safe."

　Thank you [Sword God with Wind] for your reward.

　　Thanks [give me face. . 】Big boss' tip.

　　Thanks to the boss of [Not Envious of Immortals] for the reward.

　　There is another one that is slightly later at around 12 o'clock.
