Chapter 324 Playoffs Premiere

sidelines.

D'Antoni was a little sad and silent. Under the "resistance" of Howard and Gasol, he had to give up the consideration of the whole game and succumbed to the "stubbornness" of the two cores.

That's it.

D'Antoni turned to look at Howard and the others who were talking and laughing, shook his head secretly, and couldn't help but make plans for his future.

The whistle sounded at the end of the timeout, and Joey Crawford signaled for players from both teams to get ready to play.

next moment.

The dumbfounding, even shocking picture suddenly appeared.

As the cameraman swept across Qin Tao intentionally or unintentionally on the large screen in the middle of the Staples Arena, the entire arena burst into cheers.

Even if you listen carefully to their shouts, you will find that there are quite a large number of fans who are constantly shouting Qin Tao's good.

Think about it too.

If McHale did not follow the original arrangement in the last regular season game and put Qin Tao directly to pick their opponents, then the Lakers would definitely become the biggest joke of the season. Uranus.

so.

Regardless of the positions of the two sides, just because Qin Tao didn't play because of injury or something, it's enough for them to see it as giving the Lakers a face.

And the cameraman in the arena seems to like the excitement very much. As Qin Tao came to the backcourt, the cameraman here gave him a big close-up.

Now there were even more cheers in the arena. Those who didn't know thought that the guy in the red jersey was the superstar of his Lakers team.

The bald-headed referee Crawford didn't intend to give Qin Tao a chance to win over a large number of fans, so he signaled to Qin Tao that he blew the whistle and threw the basketball over.

Handing it over to Beverly, Qin Tao kept quiet, as if these were all belongings outside his body, and slowly ran forward.

Following the teammates, they took their positions one after another. With the launch of the tactics, Greg Smith directly took Howard out of the penalty area, and Qin Tao entered the inside line under the defense of Gasol.

Since Beverly gained some trust from McHale, although his playing attitude is very positive and tough, he has also learned how to get more playing time.

When Qin Tao entered the penalty area, he seemed to be stepping a little bit. At that time, he transferred the basketball over, allowing Qin Tao to catch the ball quite comfortably.

Simultaneously.

As Qin Tao took the ball, the other Rockets players immediately opened up the space, posing as if he was going to play singles.

Gasol is depressed!

Although he knew that Qin Tao would definitely appear in the second quarter and he was absolutely unstoppable, he never thought that he would be facing a Leopard [-] tank at all.

For the first time on the stage of the playoffs, Qin Tao's body is really a little tight.

When facing the "old friend" Gasol, he unnaturally used the power to face the strongest insider.

This time Gasol was miserable.

As if he had a bitter feeling, Qin Tao was like a tank, not giving him a chance to catch his breath, duangduang a few times, and hammered into the inside line forcefully, it could not be explained that it was a ferocious turn-around dunk!

Boom! !
The aesthetics of violence that was completely invisible in the first quarter instantly stunned the entire arena.

When someone among the stars sitting in the front row clapped their hands subconsciously, his actions seemed to ignite a fuse, and the cheers and applause instantly spread like a virus at an alarming speed.

Who can stand it?

Howard, who was standing not far away, muttered to himself, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.

think about it.

Even he couldn't completely stop Qin Tao. How could Gasol, who didn't use his body as a means, be able to bear it?

But what made him feel even more speechless was that after Qin Tao completed such a powerful dunk, it seemed that he didn't make it himself, and there was no expression on his face at all, and even when he was celebrating with his teammates, it felt like A little blunt.

Too much.

Howard scratched his head and watched Qin Tao and the others leave. The grandson's pretentious methods became more and more dull.

However, as one of his few friends, Gasol is a bit of a thing if he goes to pull it up.

But he just pulled Gasol up, and the latter gasped violently.

That kind of very tired look, like fighting with someone for hundreds of rounds, breathing is really like a bellows.

Of course, Gasol cannot be blamed for this. After all, the game only lasts more than one quarter, and it is not a problem for him to play a full three quarters.

All this was because Qin Tao's attack just now was too fierce and sudden, which caused a little pressure on his heart and lungs.

After finally adjusting his breathing, Gasol originally wanted to warn Howard, but because of Crawford's call, he had to give up for the time being.

When it was the Lakers' turn to attack, Jody Meeks was very sensible, pushed the ball forward, and immediately handed the ball to Artest.

While taking the ball, Artest quickly swept over Howard and Gasol inside.

When the two of them stood at a high position and the other had to hold the inside position, he weighed it and quickly handed the ball to Howard.

And Howard, who received the basketball, seemed to want to respond to Qin Tao, regardless of the position of his teammates, and started a tough back-up singles with the ball.

Relatively speaking.

His back is more ornamental than Qin Tao's, just judging from Howard's generous body, the feeling is more intuitive.

And Smith stood behind him, not to mention two circles smaller, but also a big circle. Under Howard's back, he could hardly see his position clearly.

But still the same sentence, although he does not have Howard's body, nor does he have Howard's strength, but his tenacity and toughness will never let the other party run wild.

spell!
Smith gritted his teeth against Howard, even though he felt suffocated in his chest, but there was only one thing in his mind, that is, he couldn't let him trample on his defensive territory at will!

Snapped! !

However, an accident happened suddenly.

When everyone was paying attention to Howard and Smith, even Qin Tao and Gasol, Harden and Artest, a black shadow that was obviously ignored suddenly accelerated and cut the basketball from Howard's hands.

This sudden event caused the atmosphere on the field to pause, but the Rockets player who saw the figure clearly ran forward.

That little black was none other than Patrick Beverly, who had just gained McHale's trust.

"Qin Tao!!"

But when Beverly sprinted to the front court, this guy suddenly slowed down, turned his head and yelled behind him, seeing Qin Tao rushing to the inside and passing the ball just right.

Boom! !
When Qin Tao caught the ball, he slammed his hands on the frame hard. That sudden force caused the basket's neck to bend greatly, as if it was about to collapse at any time.
