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

Chapter 147
"From the playback, it can be clearly seen that Boozer is a completely unnecessary additional action. What we are more worried about now is Li Chengming's physical condition..."

Li Chengming lay on the ground for a long time without getting up, not only the teammates in a circle, but also the fans in front of the TV were very worried.

As a Houston fan who directly competed in the playoffs, domestic audiences are naturally familiar with these Jazz players, and Boozer's dirtyness is actually predictable.

This guy made his debut from the Cavaliers, and because of the contract issue, he got the nickname of "Anti-Bone Boy". He must have strength, but his character can't be complimented.

And don't look at him in a team like the Jazz that is known for its iron-blooded defense, but he is actually a strong offensive and defensive player.

In fact, if you really want to talk about defensive awareness, he is not bad, and he can often contribute steals with his own judgment, but limited by his physical talent, lack of wingspan, slow movement, and average bounce, so when he is on the inside, he can only use it. Some small moves to maintain their defense.

He even learned from a senior Jazz power forward who regarded dirtyness as iron-blooded and tough, so it is not surprising that there is such a big move that is obviously running towards people instead of the ball.

At this time, in the live broadcast screen, Li Chengming seemed to have recovered a little bit and was pulled up by his teammates, but he still had to rely on the support of his teammates to walk slowly to the bench, and then the team doctor made a simple confirmation. Here I am.

The referee had already stopped the game, and the next scene began to be continuously replayed on the big screen and live TV. The professionalism of the NBA in broadcasting is also reflected in their multi-camera replays from different angles.

Because the human line of sight is deceptive, it is difficult to make a real judgment from a single angle. Maybe this angle seems to have touched, but another angle can see that there is no side at all, or this angle looks like it hits first. When it comes to people, from another angle, it can be seen that they hit the ball first, and according to the rule of one player, this kind of joint action is not a foul.

But Boozer's action against Li Chengming, even if he didn't watch the replay, he knew it must be a foul. Watching the replay is more to judge whether he needs to upgrade his maliciousness.

"Li Chengming's weight has now dropped below 140 kg, but he is still one of the heaviest players in the NBA. Although this makes his bottom plate very stable and solid, he usually plays close to the ground without worrying about injury." Dangerous, but no one can expect this situation.

"Watching Li Chengming's expression on the ground was very painful for a while, and the force of the impact can be imagined. I hope the spine is not compressed..."

"The referee is still watching the replay. Judging from the replay, Boozer's action did not touch the ball at all, and he was running towards someone. This is a malicious foul. The referee will also decide whether this foul is a foul. First-degree maliciousness or second-degree maliciousness."

The results of these two penalties are different, and the impact on the game situation will also be different.

In the end, after discussion, the referee determined the bad nature of Boozer's foul, especially in the screen where it was obvious that Boozer, who had a fierce face, was holding Li Chengming's neck with his arms crossed at that moment. To knock him down directly is already an extreme violation of the basic sportsmanship.

So, this is a second-degree flagrant foul.

"Boozer was ejected directly!"

After the referee made the penalty, the first thing that ushered in was the boos of the home fans, who were a little dissatisfied with the penalty.

Boozer himself knew it well, and after receiving the result, he decisively went back to the locker room from the player tunnel.

"Shh-"

"REF SUCKS!"

"REF SUCKS!"

"The audience seemed to have an opinion on the penalty, but the referee made a ruling. The Magic got a chance of two free throws and one throw. They have a chance to directly tie or even overtake the score. Hey, Li Chengming also stood up, he looked like It is necessary to go back to the locker room for further inspection..."

Utah is a very special place in the United States. In addition to various peculiar landforms, it mainly lies in the religious culture here.

70% of the population believes in Mormonism. This single religious belief is considered a very special existence in more than 50 states in the United States.

Another unbelievable thing is that this place affirms the legality of the polygamy system at the legislative level, which is unique in the United States, which is known as the beacon of modern civilization and equality and equal rights.

Although the United States is definitely not as good as it is said, most of the places will still be covered up, not as naked as here.

In such a culturally "unique" place, many people's thoughts are also difficult to understand. Coupled with the filter of the home fans, it is not surprising that they will unconditionally stand on the home team's side.

Some fans even thought that Li Chengming was cheating, or that Boozer's action was not that exaggerated at all, and that Li Chengming, a native of China, was too "sick man".

This is not only the position of the fans, but also the color of discrimination.

It had been a long time since Li Chengming had seen an insulting sign in an away game, but he saw it here too.

So from the very beginning, Li Chengming didn't have a good impression of the fans at home. At this time, faced with boos all over the court, Li Chengming, who was helped into the locker room to be examined by the team doctor, also looked calm.

Unexpectedly, when passing through the player's tunnel, something suddenly fell down. Seeing the water bottle rolled down at his feet, Li Chengming was stunned for a moment, and looked up. At this time, there were already guards going to control the person.

Li Chengming looked at the flustered expression of that brat who didn't know whose family was being controlled, and felt a little funny for a while, and the anger that had just burst out disappeared all of a sudden.

He also realized that the home fans, whether intentional or unintentional, were trying to provoke and irritate him. If he had done anything at that time, he would probably have to face punishment after the game.

Of course, Li Chengming was still upset, but after being held down by the assistant coach, he calmed down and thought about it. The best way to deal with this situation is definitely not to compete with the fans, but to blow them up on the field, so that even the fans will only impotent rage.

just wait!
……

Lewis walked to the free throw line to execute these two free throws, and the boos on the scene became louder at this moment. In addition to dissatisfaction, he also wanted to create pressure on him in this way.

Especially the special stand design of the home arena, it seems that the power of this kind of booing has also been enhanced, and behind the basket, there are constant interference from fans making various vicious and threatening gestures.

However, Lewis is not a rookie, and he has made an All-Star team at least once. Facing this kind of provocation in an away game, he is more motivated. He made two free throws steadily, and then the Magic team served in the backcourt.

At this time, there is still the last half of the game time, and the Magic are not in a hurry.

Of course, after Li Chengming's incident, everyone as teammates also had a trace of anger, especially Howard. Instead, Millsap next to him came over and was called a defensive foul.

2+0 is done!

"97:97, after scoring 4 points in a row, the Magic tied the score!"

"Li Chengming temporarily returned to the locker room to check, and now there is not much time left in the game, and I don't know if he will have a chance to play again in the remaining time."

Su Qun was more worried about Li Chengming's injury. After all, he must have gone back to the locker room after a simple inspection. To be absent.

Of course, judging from the situation when Li Chengming left, the injury is probably not too serious, and he will be absent for two or three weeks.

But when he was in a hot state, he suddenly suffered an injury, which made people think of the one in Houston.

Many Magic fans are not interested in playing at this time, but are more anxious about Li Chengming's situation, and even keep refreshing the news, wanting to know the result as soon as possible.

On the domestic Internet, many fans directly scolded him.

Fortunately, the Jazz may have fans, but they are in the minority. After Houston was eliminated in the playoffs last season, they became the opponent of many domestic fans. At this time, no one would be so stupid as to show up.

What's more, there are right and wrong in this matter, and there are still a small number of fans who watch the game stupidly and throw away their views of right and wrong-sailboats and professional trolls are not counted.

"This Jazz team really has ghosts, isn't it against our country's players?"

"Thanks to the fat brother's body has a lot of flesh and strong buffer, I guess the problem is not too big."

"They all limped out, so the problem isn't too big?"

"Didn't you see that he touched his head, not his legs? I guess he had a concussion."

"I feel a lot like a concussion too..."

"Fuck, never play against the Jazz again."

"This season seems to be over, right?"

Because they belong to the east and west, in the regular season, the two teams only have two chances to meet each other, and this is already the second time.

In other words, the two teams will not meet again in the future, and the probability of meeting in the playoffs is also very low. At least within the scope of this season, the Magic should not have to come to Utah again.

And the game on the field at this time, perhaps because of Li Chengming, the referees did not dare to be reckless anymore. Speaking of Boozer's foul actions, they actually seemed to be conniving, which made the Jazz's actions more and more serious. The bigger it is, the result will appear.

After the referee blew several fouls in a row to control the situation, the Jazz quickly fell into a disadvantage. They only took the lead once before being overtaken by the Magic, and then failed to overtake.

This is also because of the lack of Boozer, not only the lack of a stable scoring point, but also Deron and Okur are also affected. The most effective pick-and-roll tactics are not easy to play. Okur, who has scored 25 points before Both shots were lost due to timely interference, and Deron could only rely on his personal ability to make a breakthrough.

If Millsap hadn't made up for Boozer's absence to a certain extent and allowed the Jazz's offensive system to function, they would have been directly stunned by the Magic.

Led by Howard, the five members of the Magic team played with the anger of helping their teammates to avenge. Howard frequently asked for the ball to play singles, and even faced two double-teams. Van Gundy called a timeout to calm them down a little. down.

At this time, a figure slowly walked out of the player tunnel, and Li Chengming returned.

"Li Chengming appeared on the bench, and it looks like he is about to be replaced. If this is the case, there shouldn't be a big problem."

The Magic have taken the lead, but the lead is not very large. There are still 2 minutes left, and the outcome is still uncertain.

At this time, after Van Gundy confirmed that Li Chengming could play, he still wanted to take him on the court. He is now also a must-have choice for the Magic team's winning lineup.

After playing, it was the Magic's offensive round again, attacking from the ground. This time Li Chengming received a pass from Turkoglu in the bottom corner after a pick-and-roll. The defender was too late, and even gave him time to adjust. He deeply Taking a breath and making a shot, the defense was long overdue, and the ball had already drawn a beautiful arc in the air, and then fell into the net.

"Li Chengming made a jump shot! It was a long two points. The Magic opened the score to 7 points. At the critical moment, the coach's trust in him was rewarded, and he can play a role on the court."

Ma Jian said: "It seems that Li Chengming's body should have no major problems, and he was not affected by the foul just now. He shot very resolutely."

Su Qun said: "Sometimes players are less sensitive to their bodies during the game, including some injuries, so further examinations must be done after the game. However, the help that Li Chengming brought to the team after he came up is still obvious. of……"

The main reason is that the opposing Jazz lacked an important scoring point. Although Okur had a good touch in this game, he played more of a role of widening the space to catch and shoot.

The Jazz's offense failed again, and back to the defensive end, he became the key target again. Li Chengming wanted to make another foul next time. Okur knew that he might be sent off for five fouls at any time, so he tried his best to avoid it. But still did not escape, the whistle blew.

"Li Chengming caused another foul. Although the ball missed, if he can make two free throws this time, the Magic will be able to open the score to 9 points. In the last minute or so, at this point in time, almost The Jazz can be sentenced to death!"

Su Qun laughed and said: "This ball can be blown or not. You can see that Okur has been avoiding as much as possible, just because he is afraid of fouling. Normally, Li Chengming may not get fouled so easily. It may be because Li Chengming has just suffered damage. , the referee will give him a little preferential treatment."

"Li Chengming walked to the free throw line, the first free throw - oops, missed!"

Li Chengming thumped his hand and was also a little angry.

In fact, he knew that there might be something wrong with him, maybe a concussion or something, that would cause him to be less focused.

But he still wants to play, just to beat the Jazz on his own and silence the fans who can only boo.

Closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, Li Chengming finally made a free throw this time.

It was only then that Ma Jian realized, "Before I knew it, Li Chengming had already scored 30 points!"

Su Qun also said with a smile: "It is very important for Li Chengming to stand up in the second quarter. Otherwise, the situation of this game would be hard to say. If he hadn't caused a foul just now, the Magic team directly tied and sent off the opponent's main power forward. , it’s hard to say now.”

Li Chengming is undoubtedly the key to the Magic's victory in this game. Of course, Howard, who has scored 26 points, 14 rebounds, assists, steals and blocks, is also very important. He is the cornerstone, and Li Fame raises the ceiling.

This is also the view held by many Magic fans. Li Chengming has not been able to shake Howard's fundamental position, but how far the Magic can go may really depend on the upper limit of Li Chengming's growth this season.
