NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 267 Trash Talk Su Tian Goes Online

Ariza hit a three-pointer, D'Antoni was very happy, but Harden was not happy, because the team's two successful offenses had nothing to do with him.

All the players he played with the ball were blocked by Su Tian, ​​which made Harden feel very shameless.

The possession of the ball was changed, and it was the Lakers' turn to attack. Su Tian advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

After coming to the frontcourt, Su Tian found that Harden's defensive enthusiasm had increased significantly. He was obviously stimulated by Su Tian just now, and wanted to regain some ground.

Su Tian and Harden have a good relationship in private. Seeing that Harden is suddenly so serious, Su Tian couldn't help but want to tease Harden.

"James, don't be so nervous, no matter how serious you are, you won't be able to prevent me."

Harden was also taken aback when he heard Su Tian talking trash, because Su Tian seldom speaks harshly on the court in normal games, but when Harden reacted, Su Tian had already started a breakthrough with the ball.

Everything that happened was just as what Su Tian said just now, Harden was like a wooden stake, which was easily broken by Su Tian.

However, Harden didn't think it was Su Tian's personal ability, but only felt that Su Tian was shameless, a pure sixth child, and played sneak attacks.

Su Tian broke through Harden's defense all the way to the basket, and was assisted by Capela. Su Tian dodged with a pull bar, and then hit a layup.

6-5
The scores of the Rockets and the Lakers have repeatedly risen alternately. Logically speaking, there should be back and forth.

But in fact, Harden played very aggrieved, but speaking of it, which second position in the league is not uncomfortable when facing Su Tian.

In the first quarter, under the defense of Su Tian, ​​Harden has not performed very well, and the Rockets have always been supported and led by Paul.

As for the Lakers, Su Tian tried his best to drive his teammates, relying on the overall strength to fight against the Rockets.

At the end of the first quarter, the score came to 25-23, and the Lakers temporarily led by 2 points.

Although the Lakers are temporarily leading, the point difference is not that big, and there is no big difference from a tie, and the second quarter will start soon.

In the second quarter, as usual, Wharton replaced Su Tian to rest, and Ingram and Randall led the team on the court. On the Rockets side, Paul rested and Harden led the team.

With two giant-level players, it is guaranteed that at least one giant will lead the team on the field. This is a weak period for the Lakers.

Moreover, Harden was suppressed by Su Tian for an entire quarter in the first quarter, just when he needed the ball to vent his depression.

As soon as Harden came up, he singled Pope with the ball, and hit a three-pointer with a step back.

Immediately afterwards, Nene interfered with Ingram's layup. Harden held the ball and played a fast break. Gordon, Gordon caught the ball and shot a three-pointer directly, making a steady hit.

The Rockets' defensive counterattack is also excellent. Harden is the arrow of the Rockets. As long as no one blocks the arrow, the Rockets will drive the entire Rockets to defeat the opponent.

Although Ingram and Randall also performed well, they were still easily overtaken by the Rockets. In the next few rounds, the two tried their best to barely control the point difference to 5 points.

When the second quarter was about to pass halfway, Wharton called a timeout, and while replacing Su Tian, ​​he cooled down the Rockets' feel.

The Rockets' three-pointer is too murderous, and it will be a wave if you don't pay attention.

After Su Tian came up, he directly took possession of the ball and began to control the team.

Su Tian came to the front court with the ball, directly called his teammates for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to break through to the inside. When he reached the free throw line, he suddenly stopped and made a jump shot.

Swah——

Su Tian's emergency stop jump shot was still stable, not only stabilizing the score but also stabilizing the mentality of the Lakers players.

The ball was switched, the Rockets attacked, Harden came to the frontcourt to receive the ball, and Su Tian was still defending in front of Harden.

The Rockets have mobilized before the game. As long as they can win the Lakers in this game, the Rockets will be able to overtake the Lakers and return to No. [-] in the Western Conference.

And Harden also knows that if he wants the Rockets to complete the overtake of the Lakers, the matchup between himself and Su Tian must be the top priority.

You can't shrink back, you have to face it head on.

Harden stared at Su Tian with both eyes, but his hands were not slow, and he started his signature dribble forward with his crotch.

After consecutive crotch dribbles, Harden suddenly exploded, holding the ball and making a breakthrough from the left. Harden is left-handed, and Harden is more familiar with the left.

Su Tian stuck closely in front of Harden, and walked in with Harden, but at the same time, Su Tian didn't dare to make too many moves, because Harden's foul at this time is a must, and he can't make it easily.

The two came to the basket all the way. Seeing that the timing was almost right, Harden started to use the Eurostep, ready to shake Su Tian for a layup.

Su Tian also has a certain amount of research on the Eurostep, and he was not easily shaken away to keep up with Harden's changing rhythm in time.

However, Su Tian had calculated thousands of times, but Harden still figured it out.

At the moment Harden made a shot, Su Tian jumped up to block the shot, but found that Harden's arm was actively leaning against him, and at the same time, Harden let out an "ah!"

"drop--"

As expected, the referee's whistle sounded.

Harden made a successful foul!
Su Tian was very speechless when he saw that Harden made a successful foul. He immediately found the referee who blew the whistle for a "friendly discussion". The means of exerting pressure was not Su Tianzhen's emotional agitation.

Harden went to the free throw line and made two free throws.

Harden knew that ordinary moves would not be effective against Su Tian, ​​so he could only gather everything he knew and try to defeat Su Tian with all he had learned.

In the next few rounds, Harden and Su Tian used eighteen martial arts, but they failed to completely overwhelm their opponents.

At the end of the second quarter, the score came to 55-54, and the Lakers temporarily led by 1 points.

During the intermission, in the locker rooms on both sides, Walton and D'Antoni were not idle, and began to arrange tactics against each other, but tactics still need people to execute.

Soon, the intermission ended and the third quarter began.

In the third quarter, Walton took the starting lineup as usual, and the Rockets also took the entire main lineup.

In the third quarter, the first ball was given to the Lakers. Ball advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

At this time, it was not Harden but Ariza who was defending in front of Su Tian. It was probably D'Antoni's arrangement during the intermission.

It was relatively easy for Su Tian to beat Ariza. After all, Ariza's footsteps were slower when he was older. Su Tian could easily complete a breakthrough by relying on his speed advantage.

But in order to be on the safe side, Su Tian reached out and called his teammates for a pick-and-roll, and used the pick-and-roll to break through to the inside.

Ariza didn't even keep up with the first step, Su Tian came to the basket unimpeded and made a layup.

Capela wanted to help defend, but was afraid that Lopez would catch the ball and shoot a three-pointer, so he took a step slower, which led to Su Tian's successful layup.

57-54
After Su Tian made a successful hit, he saw D'Antoni on the sidelines yelling at Capela, obviously dissatisfied with the defensive choice just now, and Capela just lowered his head to listen to the coach's scolding, and then turned around To participate in the team's offense.

The ball is switched, and it's the Rockets' turn to attack.

Paul advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Harden. Su Tian still defended Harden diligently.

In the second quarter, the two used various moves respectively, but the score did not change much. In this quarter, the Rockets made adjustments, rescued Harden from the one-on-one with Su Tian, ​​and let Ariza defend Su Tian is to allow Harden to have more time and energy to devote to offense.

However, Su Tian is still defending in front of Harden, which still affects Harden's performance.

After several rounds of the two teams relying on the starting lineup to attack each other, the point difference still did not change much, and the point difference between them did not exceed the difference of two goals.

In the middle of the third quarter, Wharton took Su Tian down and asked Su Tian to rest and prepare for the fourth quarter.

Seeing Su Tianxia on the Rockets' side, they hurriedly replaced Harden to rest. Harden played far more time than usual today.

D'Antoni was afraid that Harden would get injured because he was too tired. If Harden got injured, it would be a devastating blow to the Rockets.

When Su went on the court, the point difference was still hovering around 5 points, and the Lakers took the lead temporarily. After Su went on the court, the Lakers were led by Ball and Lopez, and the Rockets were led by Paul.

Paul's ability to lead the team is still stronger than that of Ball + Lopez. It didn't take long for Paul to lead the team to overtake the Lakers. Fortunately, Ball and Lopez are still relatively good. The end of the third quarter At the time, the point difference remained at 6 points.

80-86
When Paul left the court, he was exhausted, but he secretly clenched his fist when he saw the Rockets leading the score.

"Okay guys, we all know Sue is not that easy to deal with in the fourth quarter, James, Chris did his job perfectly in the third quarter, then it's up to you, we can win or not You played your part."

Harden looked up at D'Antoni, who was facing him, and nodded.

The state of Su Tian in the fourth quarter is known to the entire league. If the team can't lead in the first three quarters, then the fourth quarter is basically gone.

In order to win against the Lakers with Su Tian, ​​the team must have a score lead in the first three quarters, and it cannot be just a difference of one or two goals, so that the team has the possibility of winning.

Even the Thunder, known as the nemesis of the Lakers, is the same.

Therefore, the Rockets will do their best to gain the lead in the first three quarters.

During the intermission, on the Lakers side, Wharton looked at Su Tian, ​​and Su Tian looked at Wharton.

"Sue,"

"Coach, I understand."

"it is good."

The simple conversation between the two revealed Wharton's extreme confidence in Su Tian.

Soon, the intermission is over and the fourth quarter begins.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Su Tian went directly to the court. In order to make Su Tian play his best, Wharton tried his best to equip a suitable lineup.

Hart, Pope, Su Tian, ​​Kuzma, Nance.

For the Rockets, Harden also played directly at the beginning of the game, and D'Antoni also equipped Harden with a competitive lineup.

But no matter how good the lineup is, the core of the two teams lies in Su Tian and Harden.

The first ball was given to the Rockets in the fourth quarter, Harden advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and Su Tian naturally came to Harden.

Facing Su Tian in the fourth quarter, Harden didn't dare to be careless. He called his teammates to pick and roll, and used the pick and roll to make a breakthrough.

Su Tian didn't dare to let Harden go at all. When going around the pick-and-roll, he always went around from the front, for fear that Harden would directly shoot a three-pointer.

So Harden also got a chance to break through with the ball. After bypassing the pick-and-roll, Su Tian also entangled him again, and the two confronted all the way to the basket.

After arriving at the basket, Harden suddenly tried to push Su Tian away for a layup. Su Tian also pretended to be pushed away by Harden, but when Harden thought it was safe to make a layup, Su Tian jumped up quickly. A slap hit the basketball directly.

bang——

The basketball was slapped out of bounds by Su Tian.

The current fans were shocked by Su Tian's block. After the scene was silent for two or three seconds, there was a huge cheer.

"Oh my god, I have a crazy idea right now! Sue is not only the most likely candidate for the regular season MVP, I think he should even be the best defensive player!"

"I'm not sure about the best defensive player, but just based on the defensive round just now, the defense was stable for a while!"

"Su is too powerful! Both offense and defense! Absolute top star in the league!"

The scene at Staples was full of enthusiasm from Su Tian's block. Not only the emotions of the fans were mobilized, but also the emotions of the Lakers players were mobilized.

Taking advantage of Su Tian's increased aura, the Lakers used their lives to successfully defend another attack from the Rockets.

Nance got the rebound and passed the ball to Su Tian.

Although the Rockets did not score, they retreated very quickly and did not give the Lakers a chance to play a fast break.

Seeing that there was no chance for a fast break, Su Tian slowly advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. At this time, Ariza was still in front of Su Tian.

But Su Tian could clearly see that the other people in the Rockets were also paying attention to the movements on his side, as if they were going to double-team them all the time.

In an instant, Su Tian understood the Rockets' defensive strategy. It was a bet that the rest of the Lakers didn't feel good, and then frantically double-teamed himself. The Rockets resorted to Jordan's rules.

But Su Tian naturally has his own moves to deal with. While protecting the ball, Su Tian gave instructions to the players, indicating that they all pull away to make room.

After they were all pulled away, Su Tian began to break through Ariza's defense with his speed and explosiveness. PJ Tucker in the corner at the side let go of Kuzma directly, and came running towards Su Tian.

Su Tian had expected the Rockets' double-teaming for a long time, and he didn't lose his position because of Tucker's double-teaming. Instead, he turned around, bypassed the double-teaming of the two, and continued towards the basket.

Ariza saw that Su Tian easily bypassed, and hurriedly caught up with him and raised his hands to interfere, but Su Tian took his time and made a throw.

bang - swish -

The basketball hits the backboard and bounces into the net.

82-86
After watching the basketball hit the net, Su Tian looked at Ariza, "Trevor, you are not my opponent, let James come."
