Chapter 226 The Three Stage Debut
Sit down.

Qin Tao pouted noncommittally.

Griffin's physical fitness is unquestionable, and Paul's passing is also perfect.

But every time he thought of being injured by that bastard Barnes when he faced them last time, Qin Tao didn't like them very much.

of course.

The basketball court is like this. If any accidents can be avoided, then it cannot be called competitive sports.

And in this game, Qin Tao didn't see Barnes, and he didn't even see Barnes' shadow in the promotional posters around the Staples Arena.

Look at it this way.

The league's punishment was very decisive, and the Clippers also responded positively.

but.

If it is not a fool, no one can support Barnes at this time. After all, his behavior has seriously violated the spirit of sportsmanship.

The book is back to normal.

As the Clippers got the first goal with their good lob, the Rockets' response was quite crisp.

Harden is in very good condition. After receiving a pass from his teammate, when the space is completely opened, he looks quite confident facing Willie Green.

Perhaps because of the upcoming All-Star, Harden showed a very gorgeous side.

Continuous change of direction.

A fancy crotch dribble.

Until Willie Green is forced to press forward, Harden's trick is to follow.

breakthrough.

rely.

Rhythms change.

Shaking his head.

Under Harden's series of gorgeous moves, Willie Green is like a small sailboat on the waves, giving people a feeling of precarity.

At last.

The expected breakthrough was perfectly done, and Harden's drive to the inside gave people a feeling of indomitable progress.

What is he going to do?

Jordan Jr. and Griffin, who were about to help defend, froze for a moment. Harden's breakthrough was quite sharp, but he had never seen him so excited.

coming.

Harden made the iconic large-scale European step, and at the same time the change of rhythm, as well as the fake and real handwork, forced Jordan and the two to dare not rush forward.

And their hesitation paid the price for what happened next.

Harden was like a missile, entering the penalty area without any sign of staying. He suddenly jumped high and chose to ignore the pressure from Jordan and Griffin, and he shot into the sky with a rare dunk.

cheer.

The Rockets players rushed over to celebrate with him one after another. Even though the aesthetics could not be compared with the previous alley-oops, the momentum of the Rockets has improved a lot.

The war continues
The two sides immediately launched a confrontation battle.

Paul used his ability to beat Jeremy Lin one after another, while Harden used his own way to give a strong response.

By the end of the first quarter, the two teams scored 20:18, and the Clippers temporarily led by two points.

Back off the field.

All the players on both sides looked very relaxed, and there was no strong hostility caused by the last bad conflict.

however.

When the game restarted, Qin Tao still sat on the sidelines with a slight frown.

According to his understanding, although he has just returned from injury, the team will strictly control his playing time in order to protect him, but during his regular playing time, he still stays off the court, which makes him a little confused.

What happened next gradually aroused Qin Tao's discomfort.

Throughout the first half, Qin Tao didn't get a minute of playing time at all, and even from McHale's arrangement, he basically didn't hear Qin Tao's name.

what happened? ?

Following Harden and the others, Qin Tao couldn't help lowering his head and meditating.

It wasn't until he returned to the locker room that Qin Tao finally became a little vigilant.

This is not the case!
Qin Tao looked at the others calmly. Harden and the others were still laughing and joking, and seemed to have no problem, but after seeing McHale and the others, Qin Tao discovered some clues.

They looked at Qin Tao, as if they were dodging.

Especially Bickerstaff, who had a good relationship with him, just glanced at him, and then entered the lounge with a smile as if he had done something wrong.

Watching his back, Qin Tao's mouth suddenly curled into a smile.

Regarding this situation, he seemed to have heard of many cases in his previous life, but he never thought that this kind of thing would happen to him.

refrigeration!

Qin Tao was very sure that McHale and the others must have received instructions from Morey and Alexander. If not, why was he unable to play for the entire first half?
Are you angry?

Qin Tao expressed that he was not angry at all.

But if Zarya and Laidlow sat beside him, they would definitely notice that Qin Tao's eyes had changed.

At the end of the intermission, players from both sides returned to the arena one after another.

Sitting on the bench, Qin Tao quietly waited for his own opportunity.

And this opportunity did not wait for a long time, because the Rockets' bench was very weak. The Clippers had Crawford, the super sixth man, in control, which made the entire defensive line of the Rockets completely torn apart by him. It only took 5 minutes. At the time, McHale called a timeout angrily.

first time.

McHale yelled at the players who were leaving the field, and the meaning was basically inseparable from scolding, and he was very dissatisfied with their performance.

But to his embarrassment, these guys acted like they didn't hear it, and they laughed and laughed with Qin Tao one by one.

Inverted!

McHale put aside his identity as the head coach, since he can be called one of the top [-] superstars, why doesn't he know what kind of moth these little bastards are playing.

of course.

He can't deny Qin Tao's role on the bench, and he understands why these players do this better. It's all because of Qin Tao and the substitute without Qin Tao. It's completely different, and their stats will also change because of Qin Tao. After all, they are just a temporary puzzle for the team. No one likes to get a better contract after having good data.

FUCK! !
McHale frowned, and finally called Qin Tao's name.

The arrangement is very simple, Qin Tao will still be the core player of the second team.

Back on the field.

Qin Tao was like a soldier returning to the battlefield. Looking at the court, he took a deep breath, moved his stiff body silently, and returned to the court calmly.

Regarding the Rockets' changes, the Clippers are obviously a little behind the scenes.

of course.

Their substitutes may have played very well, but they completely ignored what Qin Tao was going to do now.

Game start.

Crawford couldn't leave Qin Tao's eyes. As a strict referee who has been on the court for many years, he clearly felt that the child's temperament was completely different from before.

Is this kid planning to make trouble for me again? ?

Crawford thought hesitantly, but the whistle in his mouth blew.
