After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 120

"Hey, sir, I didn't make a foul. It was obvious that he put the big elbow over just now. It should be his offensive foul..."

Li Chengming felt very dissatisfied. In fact, he experienced several unfavorable whistles at the start of the game. It can also be called the rookie whistle of "Welcome to the NBA". not enough.

Of course, such things as penalties, the kind of black calls that are obviously meant to bully you are still relatively rare, and most of the time the problems with penalties are not because you can’t blow them, but because of double standards. For the two teams in the same game Standards are not uniform.

For example, for the same defensive action, one side calls a foul and the other side is good at defending. The inconsistency in this scale will often cause the difference in the defensive strength of the two sides, and then it will be reflected on the scene, as if one defense is strong and the other defense is useless.

In fact, if the scales are exactly the same and relatively loose, then any team in the NBA can be physical and can become an iron-blooded defense. At this time, the test is the offense, which is often the gap in talent.

Of course, in the face of Li Chengming's questioning, the referee ignored him at all, and in order to avoid dissatisfaction caused by Li Chengming chasing the referee, Du Lin and Evans hurried over and pulled him back from left to right.

Then Howard also came over and patted him on the head to comfort him, and said, "Hey, take it easy BOY, we've all come this way, as long as we win in the end."

Howard really has a say on this, because he is also a player who is not very popular with referees, although this has something to do with his defensive end being easily tricked into taking off.

Compared with his No. [-] pick the year before, his treatment is really not worthy of the No. [-] pick and the status of the current league superstar.

However, he was talking to appease Li Chengming, but when he turned around, he was called an offensive foul again, but he forgot what he said, and was about to go directly to the referee.

This time it was Li Chengming who came to pull him. In fact, he felt that Howard's blowing the ball was fine. After all, Pierce had already stood outside the reasonable collision zone, and Howard also lit up his elbow and knocked him down. , which is exactly the same as that of Li Chengming just now.

But this is also more evidence, this is the double-standard penalty.

As for what Garnett said softly in his ear when attacking afterwards, how gentle the night is, how... yuck!

Seeing Li Chengming being targeted, Garnett seemed complacent, "Boy, welcome to the NBA. This is the world of adults, so you have to learn to get used to it and accept it."

"Sorry, I can't learn how shameless you are."

Li Chengming said, turned around and hit the board with a hook, Garnett wanted to interfere, but Li Chengming's figure was too wide, even with the advantage of height and wingspan, when he used the other hand to support the distance between the two , Garnett is still helpless.

If he is a little more impulsive, he may be called for a foul.

He can't pin his hopes on whether the referee will give the whistle again, or he has to rely on himself.

But it is clear that Li Chengming is more comfortable now, and has experience in dealing with players who are taller and more wingspan than him, unless he encounters the kind of player who has the strength to hold him, but at the same time is more flexible than him, taller and stronger than him. players.

Li Chengming himself is considered an outlier, and it is unlikely that there will be such an outlier player.

But after another minute and a half, when the two teams were deadlocked at around 4 points, Li Chengming was fouled again. This time he just raised his hand helplessly, not even thinking about discussing with the referee. Instead, Van Gundy immediately went to the referee to communicate.

In the live broadcast room of CCTV, the two commentators watched the replay and discussed whether Li Chengming committed a foul this time.

Director Sun said: "The last foul is debatable, it should even be an offensive foul, but this time Li Chengming's hand did hit Pierce, this time he was a bit too defensive, in fact, he should stop at this place, This time I gave the opponent a 3+1 chance, which is not worth the loss."

Director Zhang also said: "Li Chengming is troubled by fouls now, and he has committed four fouls, so he must rest. Coach Van Gundy is also in a hurry, because Li Chengming played very well on the court, and the score is also biting. , but two fouls in more than three minutes must end..."

Sun guided: "Coach Van Gundy seems to have to bring Lewis back, because Howard also played for too long and needs to rest, but the combination of Lewis and Foyer is not a suitable choice."

But this time Van Gundy didn't bring up Foyer, but instead called James Augustine.

Obviously, this is a choice to strengthen the defense, and Augustine can still eat the pie, and then bring the Turks up and play more pick-and-roll cooperation.

At the same time, Bogans also returned to the court to strengthen the defense on the flanks, especially against Pierce.

After finishing the arrangement, Van Gundy returned to the referee and continued to communicate with him, trying to figure out the referee's scale.

The penalty in the first half was not a big problem, but since the Magic team caught up with the score in the third quarter, the referee's targeting of the Magic side was a bit too obvious.

Lewis and Li Chengming have been off the field for four fouls, and the fouls are still debatable. Even if it is the home whistle, it is too obvious.

Time entered the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, the score was 66:70, and it was still the Celtics' offensive round.

Rondo and Ray Allen returned to the court, and Garnett and Pierce also took a break. The Green Army played a lineup of one big and four small, and the veteran Scott Pollard, who was two meters one by one, came up to the inside.

First, Rondo broke through Nelson and scored a layup. Turkoglu responded with a mid-range jumper. Ray Allen hit another drift shot. Nelson assisted Augustine and caused a foul by Pollard. Two free throws were made. one.

In the last 30 seconds or so, the Green Army chose to make a rush shot, and Ray Allen made another three-pointer. This game has already hit 4 three-pointers.

Turkoglu's arc top pressure time started in the last 8 seconds. With the help of Augustine's cover in the paint area, he made another shot and hit again, without further widening the point difference.

With the Celtics missing the last attack, the 5-point difference was maintained until the end of the third quarter.

Li Chengming stood up and high-fived his teammates one by one, then was called out by Van Gundy, and immediately turned around.

Van Gundy held his arm and let him bend down, and then whispered in his ear: "You will go on the court and bring a substitute for a while..."

Li Chengming was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Van Gundy's serious expression, he immediately understood.

It seems that the communication with the referee just now was not very smooth, which is also a normal thing.

The NBA often pays attention to a story, so what can be more legendary than the rise of the Celtics, the revival of an old giant in the league after more than ten or 20 years of sinking?
Even if it weren't for the Lakers being too stretched now, the league wants to win them this season, and then bring the league back to the era of the "yellow-green war" to directly earn a wave of feelings and turn those who have long been Old fans who have been overwhelmed by work and life and forgot to watch the game are all attracted back. Isn't this delicious?

Even if Garnett strives to win the votes this year, it is not without the shadow of the alliance's boost. Although Garnett is indeed known for his popularity, it may even exceed his own strength. Compared with Duncan and Nowitzki, Leading the team has no particularly decent results, but the combination of offense and defense is the appetite of the Americans.

But it has been more than ten years since he entered the league, and it was only when he came to Boston that he started to win the votes. He surpassed Kobe, James and others in popularity. The league's publicity definitely played a great guiding role.

Li Chengming naturally didn't know this, but since he knew that the referee really wanted to protect the home court, Van Gundy chose to let Li Chengming play with a substitute at this time, not to say that he would give up the game, but hoped that he could survive In this connecting period, the starting players will be brought back for the next seven or eight minutes to decide the outcome.

Of course, if you can't make it through and are directly opened by your opponent, then the game is basically over, and it's a good thing to give up early to save some energy.

After all, at this time, I am not afraid of losing, but I am afraid of some accidents, such as injuries.

But in this way, the requirements for Li Chengming's personal offense are relatively high, because at the very least, their offense must score as much as possible, and the defense must do their best. This has to pray that the referee will look at the face of this lineup , don't make any more fools.
