But what made Li Kaiming feel speechless again was that his free throw actually missed again!
Varejao, who was blocked and got the rebound, already showed a disdainful smile!
The referee gave you a chance but you didn't use it!
After being played by Li Kaiming, Varejao is ready to teach this new top pick a lesson. He wants the latter to know that even a role player is not something that a rookie like you can despise!
When the Cavaliers attack, Mo Williams advances with the ball. In addition to being the best scorer on this Cavaliers team, he also has the greatest ability to dominate the ball.
Even with Jamison back, Mo Williams is still the best passer on the entire Cavaliers.
JJ Hixon and Varejao went up to give Mo Williams a double screen. This method can ensure that Williams will 100% pass Arenas on the line.
But facing Li Kaiming and Blatche who was eyeing him in the penalty area, Williams was still a little frightened.
He had already experienced Li Kaiming's speed in the last round, and he did not believe that he could pass the latter in such a narrow range.
So he could only dribble in slightly, then compress the Wizards' defensive formation, and then pass the ball to Anthony Parker on the outside!
In fact, Nick Young's return to defense was very fast, and he didn't give Parker much space, but the latter still scored a three-pointer!
5:6!
The Cavaliers caught up with the score.
The Wizards serve, Arenas and the entire team advance quickly, and they have to take advantage of their speed.
The Cavaliers retreated quickly, and the two insiders used all their strength to prevent themselves from falling behind Li Kaiming.
Li Kaiming's quick charge once again gave the Wizards an outside opportunity. Even the defenders in front of Arenas and Nick Young focused on him.
After Arenas arrived in the frontcourt, he directly pulled up and shot!
Three-pointer scored, anserball!
5:9!
General Jin has a good touch. After scoring the goal, he extended three fingers to the camera to celebrate!
Only then did everyone in the Cavaliers realize that they had overreacted. Li Kaiming's powerful explosiveness left such a deep impression on them that everyone couldn't help but want to pile into the paint to help the team defend against Li Kaiming.
But they forgot that Li Kaiming is just a rookie. At least so far, the Wizards' leading scorer is Arenas!
The Cavaliers' offense ended with Ramon Sessions missing a layup on a layup.
Li Kaiming got the rebound, handed it to Arenas, and then quickly charged forward.
This time the Cavaliers learned the lesson. Only two insiders blocked Li Kaiming, and everyone else was still looking at their opponent.
As for Wizards center Blatche, there is no threat when leaving the penalty area, so Varejao can squat near the penalty area without restraint.
Arenas beat Mo Williams and failed to make a layup due to Varejao's interference.
But without Varejao at the basket, the Cavaliers had no way to protect the backcourt rebounds.
JJ Hixon, who is facing Li Kaiming, is only 2.06cm tall and is a shrunken version of the No. 4 position. Facing the bald Li Kaiming, who is half a head taller than him, he is simply unable to resist.
Li Kaiming squeezed Hickson away and took the rebound off the latter's head. As soon as he exerted force on his feet and prepared for a layup, he was suddenly pushed in the back!
Fortunately, Li Kaiming had a strong body and controlled his body well in the air, so that he did not completely lose his balance. Not only that, he also knocked the ball against the backboard with both hands before falling.
After he squatted on the ground, the basketball bounced off the backboard, then swayed and fell into the basket!
The bottom line referee blew the whistle again, signaling Varejao's pushing foul, 2+1!
After seeing the referee indicate the jersey number of the offender with his hand, Li Kaiming, who was sitting on the ground, knew who the culprit was this time!
It’s the actor Varejao again!
And Varejao immediately showed the professionalism of a movie star, making various innocent expressions, combined with the action of spreading his hands and shrugging, making people really think that he was wronged at a glance!
While Varejao was acting, he was indeed secretly surprised.
This rookie has such strong physical fitness!
How black this slap is, he naturally knows it well after playing in the league for 6 years.
Ordinary starting-level insiders can't stop him at all, and he will only use these actions when defending those All-Star-level insiders, or in the playoffs.
Because there is a big gap between his physical fitness and the All-Star insiders, there is a high chance that he will be beaten without resorting to any off-field tactics!
This method is actually a default unspoken rule in the NBA, especially some guards who have poor physical fitness but good defense are almost all better at this blink.
However, he was surprised, and Varejao did not feel a little guilty. In his mind, he was kindly "teaching experience" to the new No. 1 pick. As for whether Li Kaiming appreciated it or not, that was the latter's business.
Obviously Li Kaiming didn't appreciate it. As a basketball player who has been immersed in the court for decades, he knew that in this situation, he couldn't be cowardly!
The more you coward others, the less they will take you seriously!
If you lose even the most basic blood, how can you still play basketball?
So he immediately got up with his hands on his hands, then rushed in front of Varejao, grabbed the latter's collar with his hands, his eyes widened, and his momentum was terrifying!
"What do you want to do, you bastard?"
Everyone present did not expect that Li Kaiming, a rookie, would dare to go directly to trouble Varejao!
The teammates of the Wizards were just ready to get Li Kaiming up, but they didn't expect that the latter immediately got up and went to fuck Varejao!
Varejao himself did not expect that a fledgling rookie could have such a bad temper, and the latter's aggressive aura really frightened him!
The referee was also frightened by this battle. Why is he still doing it after a preseason game?
After reacting, he immediately blew the whistle in his hand!
Dudu!
The game immediately entered a timeout, and players from both sides came to separate Li Kaiming and Varejao, mainly Li Kaiming.
When he was pulled away by his teammates, Varejao finally "awakened" and started shouting and scolding Li Kaiming through a group of people!
"fxxk! Don't stop me! Damn it, let that rookie come over and try! I'll fuck him to death..."
It's just that at this time, he was hiding behind a group of people and shouting such domineering words, which seemed a bit ridiculous!
Li Kaiming stood behind his teammates and looked at Varejao coldly without saying a word.
As Li Kaiming watched, Varejao's scolding voice gradually subsided, and finally turned into a muttering that only he could hear...
Cavaliers teammates:…
Looking at Li Kaiming with stern eyes, Arenas sighed in his heart that he would be intimidating, and then gave Li Kaiming a thumbs up!
"Son, you have courage. There are many people in this league who are like this. As long as you toughen up, they won't dare to cause trouble!"
Arenas's words won Li Kaiming's approval. This Varejao is not even a bad person in the league. Everyone wants to ride on his neck and shit. If he doesn't give the latter any color, there will be more such people in the future. So annoying!
This is what is known as hitting with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches!
However, this kind of operation also comes at a cost. After watching the slow playback of the game, the on-site referee made a fairly fair penalty!
Cavaliers Varejao made unnecessary physical contact after Li Kaiming completed the layup, causing subsequent conflicts on the court and giving him a first-level flagrant foul.
Li Kaiming of the Wizards stepped forward to contact the opposing player after the referee stopped the game, expanded the conflict, and was given a technical foul!
This penalty can be justified.
The Cavaliers took a technical free throw first, and Mo Williams made a solid free throw.
The Wizards made two free throws and Li Kaiming stepped to the free throw line.
In the end, two free throws were made, and the Wizards made a frontcourt pass.
