Chapter 136
Dwayne Casey didn't dare to be careless, and quickly called a timeout after the ball was delivered.

DeRozan looked at the score above the stadium, and couldn't help but swear in a low voice.

There are not many swear words in English, only a few sentences, even if you turn them over and over again, you can't find any tricks.For this kind of thing, it is better to have extensive and profound Chinese skills. Of course, this is all a digression.

DeRozan's complaints were heard by Lowry. He took the initiative to walk to DeRozan and said comfortingly: "DeMar, don't worry! The game is not over yet, we still have a chance to win."

"I'm not worried!" DeRozan said the truth. "I'm dissatisfied with the referee. Paul's actions are too dirty, and they don't know how to control them."

"This is our profit, so let's bear with it."

DeRozan looked at Lowry, not understanding what he meant, and asked, "The Lakers are so powerful at home, how can we make a profit?"

Lowry covered his mouth with his hands and said, "Xu is basically a foul when he touches someone. Why don't we benefit from it?"

Dwayne Casey held the tactical board and saw the two core players whispering, and couldn't help shouting: "Kyle, DeMar, time is precious, we have to start tactical arrangements soon."

Lowry and DeRozan stopped discussing, walked to the coach, and listened to his next tactical arrangement.

Kobe didn't take the tactical board, and when he walked in front of the players, he said first, "Xu, the referees seem to be targeting you, have you noticed?"

Xu Tian took the towel from Thackeray, and replied calmly: "It's been since the summer league, how could I not know."

Nick Yang originally thought that someone would praise his singles, but he didn't expect it to backfire. Hearing the conversation between Kobe and Xu Tian, ​​he stood beside him depressed.

Kobe quickly ended the topic, put his focus back on the game, and said: "Since the referee cannot be changed, let's go back to the game itself. In theory, there is still enough time for two 24-second attacks. Basically, it is one attack and one defense, and the timeout is back. The defense must stop, and then win the game firmly with free throws."

Xu Tian knew that Kobe's arrangement was the safest, and said, "Larry, don't go up after the timeout, and Tariq will help you with the final defense."

Xiao Nansi admired Xu Tian very much, and what he wanted was victory, so he agreed without thinking.

Clarkson still didn't get a chance to play, so he pulled the "brother in trouble" Nance Jr. to his side, and the two sat next to each other to discuss the game and their current situation.

Dewayne Casey has quite a lot of coaching experience, and he can see that the referee's attitude towards Xu Tian is not good, so the offensive tactics are very simple-whoever Xu Tian defends, he will attack.

Lowry understood the coach's intentions and was the first to walk back to the court after the timeout, and received the serve from Scola confidently.

DeRozan was a little afraid of confrontation with George, actively avoided physical contact, changed his strategy and used screens and running positions to open up space.

Xu Tian arc lowered his center of gravity and focused on marking Lowry who was holding the ball without distraction, not being affected by the referee's scale at all.

Lowry was blocked by Xu Tian in the last offensive round, and he felt a little upset in his heart, so he decisively started the singles with the ball at the top of the arc.

With the whistle in his mouth, the referee stared at Xu Tian's defensive action, ready to call a foul at any time.

Xu Tian didn't fight, and directly surrounded Lowry with his height and speed, defending in a physically exhausting way.

Lillard and CJ McCollum were watching the Lakers game, and they were taken aback by Xu Tian's defense, and couldn't help but pay a lot of attention to the Lakers.

Terry Stotts was also watching the game, and when he saw Xu Tian's clean steals, his worries became stronger.

Lowry would never have dreamed that Xu Tian could steal without confrontation. While sighing his carelessness, he could only make fouls.

The number of fouls has been reached, Xu Tian stands on the free throw line and executes two free throws.

The fans at the scene loved Xu Tian who was standing on the free throw line, and expressed their support by shouting MVP.

Shooting is what Xu Tian is best at.

118-114, time 35 seconds!
In order to ensure the success rate of the attack, Dwayne Casey once again called a short timeout of 20 seconds to arrange the offensive and defensive tactics.

George clapped hands with Xu Tian, ​​who walked off the stage expressionlessly, and said with a smile, "Xu, you have two tricks!"

Xu Tian basically didn't speak at the critical moment, nodded in agreement with George's words, and walked to the sidelines to accept the coaching of Ke's guidance.

The fans at the scene could no longer sit still, so they simply stood in front of their seats and passed the timeout by dancing to the music.

Magician and Pelinka could vaguely hear Kobe's arrangement, and the Lakers were very sure of winning the game. They were very relaxed and enjoyed this arrangement.

Xu Tian understands that performance at the last moment is the criterion for judging a superstar, and he attaches the most importance to this stage of the game. During the timeout stage, he does not say a word, and keeps his attention at the highest level.

As soon as the players from both sides set foot on the field, the fans on the scene began to shout for defense in unison, cheering for the home team with more fanatical passion than the players on the field.

Xu Tian touched the bracelet on his right wrist with his left hand, and stood still outside the three-point line, ready to meet Lowry's impact.

Lowry knew that the team was four points behind, which meant that if the attack could not score, the suspense of the game would basically be lost, and he was much more cautious when attacking with the ball.

DeRozan really couldn't get rid of George, so he could only use Carroll's cover to win a short space to receive the ball.

Facing Xu Tian's impenetrable defense, Lowry was timid for a three-pointer. Seeing DeRozan's opportunity, he immediately wanted to pass the ball.

The basketball was blocked by the outstretched hand and stopped abruptly on the way.

When Kobe saw Xu Tian making the steal, he bounced off the bench excitedly, celebrating the rookie with a smile.

The noise from the Staples Center was so deafening that most of the kids had to cover their ears.

Lowry couldn't react this time. Even if he wanted to make a tactical foul, he couldn't catch up. He could only watch Xu Tian, ​​who had already run to the frontcourt, take off.

Xu Tian poured his anger towards the referee into the dunk and smashed the basketball into the basket with all his strength.

boom!
Lakers 120-114 Raptors, 22 seconds left!
Dwayne Casey called a timeout in vain, but there was really no way to adjust it, only to encourage the players.

DeRozan hit a magical three-pointer after returning from a timeout, but time was no longer on their side, so they could only foul immediately.

In the end, Xu Tian made two free throws at the free throw line, which completely wiped out the Raptors' hope of winning, and won the victory at home with a score of 122-117.

徐天本场比赛上场39分钟，投篮14投9中，拿下28分9篮板10助攻4抢断2封盖的数据。

Kenny Smith was very satisfied with this result, and happily broadcast the final score, saying: "The Lakers won the game with difficulty and continue to move towards the goal of the playoffs."

Barkley didn't quite agree with his partner's words, and retorted: "The goal of the Lakers is not the playoffs, but the championship!"

Kenny Smith didn't know whether he should be blindly optimistic, so he kept silent and didn't answer.
