Chapter 133 Out of Context
Xu Tian was replaced again after only 2 minutes of rest. When he returned to the court, the Raptors had chased the point difference to only 3 points, which made the suspense of the game still exist.

When Xu Tian came on the court, Lowry was making a free throw. He took advantage of the free throw to check the score. After confirming the point difference, he received the serve from Nance Jr. who picked up a defensive rebound, and dribbled the ball slowly across half court.

George came to the top of the arc to cover, and helped Xu Tian block Carol, so that Xu Tian could quickly break through to the inside.

Xu Tian used the change of rhythm to get rid of Carroll. Facing DeRozan who had switched defenses, he dribbled the ball under his crotch to change direction, and took a step back to shoot a three-pointer.

DeRozan didn't expect Xu Tian to be so rigid, he was a step slower in defense, and his outstretched hand could only reach the air.

Lowry yelled a rebound at Valanciunas, who was stupefied inside, and drew the center's attention back.

Every second counts on the court, and Hibbert took advantage of Valanciunas's stunned effort and seized a favorable rebounding position.

Xu Tian was very confident in this three-point shot, and his right hand kept the movement of the shot, standing outside the three-point line without moving.

Swish!
99-94, the Lakers lead by 5 points!
Li Feng has been recruited into the UCLA Bruins by Ben Holland, and he participated in the team's joint training for the first time today, because he has never participated in formal training before, and he is basically practicing basic skills.But those projects are common to him, so he doesn't feel tired at night, sitting in the dormitory and watching the Lakers game.

Xu Wenye and Li Feng are not in the same major, and the dormitory buildings they live in are far apart, so they can only exchange experience watching games through WeChat.

The owner of the WeChat group is an old fan, who sent a message while watching the game, "Xu's game is similar to LeBron's. I don't feel how he plays offensively, but the score is almost 20."

When Li Feng saw this news, he turned on the text live broadcast on his mobile phone, watched the statistics, and found that Xu Tian had already scored 18 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists. He cut to WeChat and replied: "Really! He is suitable for the NBA. The speed is really scary."

Xu Wenye turned on his mobile phone and saw the discussion in the WeChat group, and sent a message, "If I had Xu Tian's talent, I would definitely not be on the bench for the brown bears." However, he felt that this sentence was inappropriate, and soon put It was withdrawn.

Li Feng saw Xu Wenye's news and replied: "Heaven rewards hard work! As long as we practice hard, we will always have a chance to play."

The group members followed Li Feng's words and encouraged the two to play hard in the Bruins and strive to enter the NBA in the future.

The game on the field continues!

DeRozan didn't give the Lakers a chance to defend. With Carroll's cover breakthrough, he made a steady mid-range shot and helped the Raptors stop the decline.

96-99, the Lakers lead by 3 points!
Xu Tian dribbled the ball halfway, and the top position of the arc once again had a pick-and-roll with George, but this time he changed his offensive strategy.

DeRozan was afraid of Xu Tian's sudden cold shot, so he stuck very tightly after the defense was in place, leaving no room for Xu Tian to shoot.

Kobe couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, stood up and shouted: "Shoot!"

Xu Tian was interrupted by Kobe's sudden voice. He almost lost the ball in his hand.

Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life, or a real man for five seconds?
Nance Jr. chose the latter, caught the ball and forcibly started it, and dunked with one hand across the old Scola.

Scola is already a veteran player. He has experienced countless dunks. He took the dropped basketball calmly and stepped out of the baseline to serve.

Lowry took the ball and pushed it across half court slowly.

DeRozan received the ball from the waist and singled George with his back.

Xu Tian was defending Lowry, so he had no choice but to watch two big black men fighting hand to hand near the free throw line.

Feeling George's tough physical confrontation, DeRozan felt a little timid in his heart, but he had no way out, and he turned around with the ball at his fingertips, turned back and shot a jumper.

BANG!

98-101, the Lakers still lead by three points.

Hibbert got the basketball, stepped out of the baseline and served it to Xu Tian.

As soon as Xu Tian received the ball, Scott called a 20-second timeout.

Knowing that time was running out, Scott quickly drew two tactics with the tactical board, and more importantly, let the team protect the rebound and strengthen the defense.

Under the influence of Xu Tian and Kobe, George boldly made suggestions to Scott and asked about the feasibility of tactics.

Xu Tian stood quietly watching the discussion between Scott and George.

The 20 seconds passed in a flash, and the two failed to discuss the result. The final trend can only be determined by the players on the field.

The Trail Blazers game against the Magic is over. As the Lakers' next opponent, Damian Lillard will inevitably be asked questions about Xu Tian and the Lakers by reporters.

Lillard's answer was very straightforward: "The Lakers lineup has undergone major adjustments. I only know Kobe, and of course Paul George who recently joined the Lakers. I don't know much about the rest of the players."

Media reporters were very excited to hear Lillard's answer, and some portals even took it out of context and directly published this interview under the title "Lillard: I don't know Xu Tian!"

Fans who didn't know why were blown up and commented under the news one after another. Some extreme fans even claimed that they didn't know who Lillard was.

A few rational fans read the content of the news and thought that what Lillard said was fine, and stood up to defend him, but they were quickly overwhelmed by slightly extreme remarks.

The Lakers fans forwarded the news to the team area, which immediately sparked a new round of discussions.Many fans said that the game against the Trail Blazers must be played well, so that Lillard knows what is beyond the sky.

The Lakers and Raptors are still in the game, so Xu Tian naturally doesn't know what's going on outside.The dribble at the top of the arc was started, and with the explosive first step, he directly passed Carroll who was on the defense.

Carroll is 203 cm tall, and his movement speed is not fast. He couldn't keep up with Xu Tian who was rushing forward, so he could only turn around and watch the rookie enter the inside lane.

The inside defense of the Raptors was useless to Xu Tian, ​​but the referee showed his power at this time.

Valanciunas slapped Xu Tian on the head. Although the referee saw it, he didn't call the foul.

Carroll picked up the basketball that flew over and quickly handed it to Lowry, who would hold the ball and launch a counterattack.

Xu Tian's body is strong enough, but being hit hard on the head by a strong insider was still somewhat affected, resulting in his failure to retreat in place, and he was successfully scored by the Raptors five times and four times.

Raptors 106-107 Lakers, only 2 minutes and 56 seconds left.

George felt that Xu Tian was a little uncomfortable, received the serve from the backcourt, and dribbled for Xu Tian for halftime.

Xu Tian walked to the front court and glanced at the referee standing on the sideline, feeling a little helpless and angry in his heart.After calming down, he opened his hand and asked George for the ball.

George and Xu Tian had a clear division of labor, knowing that Xu Tian should be in control of the final stage, and quickly passed the ball to him.
