Chapter 47 Scoring Mode
Scott made no substitution adjustments.After the timeout, the starting players of both sides returned to the court again and the game continued.

After Rondo dribbled the ball through the offensive half, Cousins ​​stepped up to cover, trying to use the pick-and-roll to break Randall and Hibbert's defense around the front.

Cousins ​​is very versatile. Even if he dribbles from the outside to attack, Xu Tian will not be surprised.

Yao Ming was more afraid of defending around the front back then. The Rockets' tactics have certain reasons.At that time, he was always asked to take a position in the penalty area before passing the ball. In addition, Yao Ming was too heavy and not flexible enough in the later stage. Naturally, he was more afraid of this kind of defense.

After all, Cousins ​​is black. Although he is heavy, it does not affect his flexibility in the slightest, making him not afraid to go around and defend at all.

Xu Tian saw through Rondo's intentions ahead of time, and when Rondo's ball was about to hit Cousins' path, he kicked the ball out.Coincidentally, the basketball flew into the auditorium and smashed the sign in the hand of the little fan who booed him at the beginning.

The little fan heard people around him say that Xu Tian is a devil who would eat children at night, and now that Xu Tian hit him with a basketball, he felt that he was being targeted tonight.Thinking of this, his face lost all color, and he quickly avoided Xu Tian's eyes.

Xu Tian looked at this little fan with evasive eyes, and became more and more interested in him.But the game was still going on, and he quickly returned his attention to the game.

Cauley-Stein goes for the throw-in.He was a little careless when serving and sent the ball directly to Xu Tian.

Xu Tian gave way to Rondo's defense, slowly pushed the ball across the half court, pointed to the sky with his left index finger, and called a tactic.

Kobe's gesture for singles is to put the middle finger and ring finger of both hands together, and then open and close them back and forth.Xu Tian's single hand gesture is to point the left index finger to the sky.

When defending, Rondo glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye to determine what tactics the Lakers were going to play. In this way, Xu Tian's defensive attention was naturally relaxed.

Xu Tian dribbled the ball past Rondo, who was inattentive, and rushed towards the inside with the fastest speed.

Cauley-Stein had Randle stuck behind him, ready to come over and help.

Gay left Nick Young behind, and hurried over to try to delay Xu Tian's attack, but Xu Tian had already sped up, and he couldn't get a good position, so he could only watch Xu Tian pass by him.

Xu Tian dribbled the ball to hit the inside line, and after Cousins ​​made up his defense, he jumped up and hit the basket.

Cousins ​​also took off, trying to block Xu Tian's shot.

Xu Tiantian switched the ball from his right hand to his left in the air, and when Cousins' hand hit it, he met it with his left hand.

Snapped!
Cousins ​​hit Xu Tian's left arm vigorously with his right hand, causing him to feel severe pain, but his left hand was still unaffected. He picked the basketball with his fingertips and threw the basketball.

Cauley-Stein was on the right side of the basket, and his defense couldn't touch Xu Tian, ​​so he could only sigh in vain.

The basketball hit the net and Xu Tian scored two points.

11-7!

When Xu Tian retreated, he watched the referee point to his red arm with his right hand, indicating that Cousins ​​had committed a foul just now.But the referee ignored him completely and ran directly with Rondo's push.

Seeing the referee's reaction, Xu Tian thought to himself: "It's done! It's similar to Anthony and Jeremy Lin. If you don't get killed, you won't have a call." Thinking of this, he naturally looked at Kobe on the left.

Seeing that Xu Tian was a little distracted, Rondo gave the ball to Guy and asked Guy to play singles.

Xu Tian withdrew his attention, quickly caught up with the activated Guy, and blocked his shot with his right hand.

The basketball fell into Randle's hands.He didn't stop the ball and passed it directly to Xu Tian.

Xu Tian dribbled the ball across the half court, passed the ball to Kobe, made a gesture of Kobe's singles with both hands, and then pointed to Cousins ​​on the inside.

Xu Tian just made an attack on the inside, and he wanted to make Cousins ​​foul so that he could get two fouls and go to rest early.But the referee didn't blow it, but it didn't affect Xu Tian's determination to foul him.

After a few minutes of running, Kobe's body has warmed up, and he started singles on McClemo directly from the outside.

No matter how you say it, McLemore is only a sophomore. Facing the famous Kobe Bryant, he was still somewhat nervous, and he hesitated in his defensive actions.Kobe seized this opportunity, dribbled the ball under his crotch, simply changed direction and passed him, and also rushed towards the inside.

This time it was Randall who stuck Cauley Stan behind him, making him unable to help defend.

Kobe's offensive methods are too rich. When he came outside the penalty area, facing Cousins' defense, he directly pulled up and shot.

The fadeaway jump shot was picturesque, but it missed.

The unguarded Hibbert took the offensive rebound, took off on the spot, and dunked the ball into the basket with his right hand.

11-9, only two points left.

When Xu Tian retreated, he ran to Kobe and said, "I want you to foul Cousins ​​in singles. How did you shoot?"

Kobe pushed Xu Tian back to the defensive position and said, "Play normally, we won't lose to them."

Xu Tian shook his head helplessly, and ran to defend Guy.

Cousins ​​finally received a pass from Rondo and wanted to push Hibbert away in the penalty area, but this time Hibbert was very hard and blocked Cousins' shot head-on.

Domestic fans often jokingly call Rondo a center because of his good rebounding ability.He is only 185 centimeters tall, and his ability to have this ability depends entirely on prediction.

Xu Tian's anticipation of rebounds is also excellent, but he didn't expect Hibbert to defend the ball, so he was still with Gay, and he didn't even think about competing for the ball that might come.

Rondo easily picked up the offensive rebound, went inside, faked Hibbert, and caused his defensive foul.

Xu Tian came to the left side of the free throw line again, ready to compete for rebounds.

Rondo felt pretty good today, hitting both free throws and rewriting the score to 13-9.

The Kings made adjustments on the defensive end, with Gay following Kobe and McClemore switching to Nick Young.

Rondo was defending Xu Tian. His face was a bit unkind, and he said, "Rookie, aren't you very kind? Why don't you attack?"

Xu Tian looked at Rondo, smiled softly, dribbled the ball behind his back to adjust his rhythm, and made a direct pull from outside the three-point line.

This shot was a bit powerful, and it turned into a long rebound when it hit the backboard.

Before Rondo could react, Xu Tian rushed inside, picked up a long rebound at the free throw line, and shot directly.

The hand goes up and down, and the mid-range shot hits.

13-11!

Cousins ​​got the ball and wanted to send it to Rondo, but he saw Xu Tian was behind Rondo and gave the ball to McClemore instead.

McLemore didn't expect Cousins ​​to send him the ball, and Kobe was pressing him to defend him, which made him lose the ball.

Kobe touched the ball with his right hand and hit it in the direction of Xu Tian.

Xu Tian rushed forward quickly, got the basketball before Rondo, and dribbled towards the penalty area to attack.

Cousins ​​guarded the basket and opened his arms to meet Xu Tian's attack.He will definitely not let Xu Tian dunk, if necessary, the criminals will stop him.

Xu Tian's speed was not fully up, but it didn't matter, he still had a skilled offensive skill.

Euro Step!

Xu Tian tricked Cousins' defense, picked the basket with his left hand, and hit the rebound.

13-13!
The Energy Balance Arena fell silent.They didn't expect that the lead at the beginning would be equalized by the Lakers so quickly.

George Karl didn't call a timeout, but yelled at Rondo to slow down and play!
After Rondo dribbled the ball for halftime, Xu Tian took the initiative to meet him and said, "Have you seen my offense? You will never learn it in your life!"

Rondo looked at Xu Tian and retorted: "Shut up, rookie! You didn't know where I was when I was playing in the NBA!"

Xu Tian didn't shut up, and continued to rant at Longda.

Finally, Rondo couldn't take it anymore and made a shot from outside the three-point line.The result was no accident, the shot hit the iron.

Hibbert tried his best to get Cousins ​​behind him and let Randall grab the rebound.

But Cauley-Stein bounces better, grabs the offensive rebound, and throws the ball straight to the hoop.

Randle was called for a pushing foul.Although he is also a powerful power forward, the confrontation with Cauley Stan still made him a little overwhelmed, and he is already sweating profusely.

Xu Tian noticed Randall's situation, stood in front of the side of the free throw line, and called Randall to the side to let him reduce the degree of confrontation in the interior.

After seeing Xu Tian's almighty skills, Randall admired him a little more, and immediately nodded in agreement.

Cauley-Stein had a big problem with his free throws and missed both.

Relying on his height and length, Hibbert steadily received the defensive rebound.

The unsmooth offense of the Kings made Cousins ​​a little emotional and almost tried to push Hibbert out, but he resisted the urge and began to retreat quickly.

Xu Tian dribbled the ball to the top of the arc again, continued to spray at the king's commander, pointed to the floor in front of him with his left hand and said, "I want to shoot here, just come over and defend."

When Long Duo heard Xu Tian's words, the veins on his forehead bulged, and he rushed towards Xu Tian.

Xu Tian knew that Rondo had a bad temper, and he would be fooled, so before Rondo posted it, he jumped up and shot.

The referee's whistle sounded, and Xu Tian got the first penalty.

Basketball hollow into the net!

3+1!

Nick Yang ran over and pulled Xu Tian up.

Xu Tian made a three-point gesture with both hands at the same time. Before going to the free throw, he still shouted at Rondo: "Change someone else, you can't guard me!"

Rondo's face was livid, and the veins on his forehead twitched violently. He called Guy over and said, "I'll defend Xu this time. Don't switch defenses."

Gay shrugged and did not deny Rondo's idea.

Barkley noticed the interaction between Xu Tian and Rondo, and said: "Rajon is a villain, but he provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked. You know, Xu Tian is a jerk!"

Kenny Smith said: "Rajon may not have watched the Summer League finals. Xu completely took over the game in the end. His offense was not blocked."

Xu Tian adjusted his shot and threw the ball lightly.There is no problem with adding penalties, and the basketball is hollow into the net.

Lakers 17-13 Kings.

In just over 4 minutes after the timeout, the Lakers overtook the score.
