The second quarter begins quickly.
Both the Nuggets and Spurs have made rotations. Needless to say, as a young man, Li Yan has taken on the important task of driving the second team.
Li Yan led the substitute players. In order to get everyone into the state as soon as possible, after thinking about it, Li Yan decided to pass the ball more to his teammates to warm up their hands.
…………
Li Yan came to the frontcourt with the ball and gave the basketball to Nene. Nene squeezed twice with his back and got the ball back.
Nene pulled to the top of the arc to set up a pick-and-roll for Li Yan, and Li Yan broke in with the help of the screen.
Robert Horry stood up in advance and blocked Li Yan's breakthrough line.
Horry has rich experience. As the "Lord of the Rings" among role players, he has his own experience on the defensive end.
Horry is very good at judging positions, occupying positions in advance, and causing offensive fouls on opposing players.
If the ball was transferred to other players, it would be inevitable for them to escape disaster, but this could not escape the eyes of the cheating Li Yan.
Li Yan took a step and changed direction, cleverly avoiding Huo Li.
However, just as the two passed each other, Horry fell backwards in an exaggerated manner.
"Beep! Beep beep!"
The referee did not hesitate to call Li Yan's offensive foul.
Fuck! Am I being fooled?
Li Yan was stunned. He had clearly avoided Huo Li just now. Could it be that his aura or wind resistance was too strong and he was knocked over by Huo Li?
This is not a fantasy novel!
"Fuck! Me?" Li Yan threw his hands at the referee innocently: "Where did I foul? I didn't touch him at all!"
"I saw it," the referee explained: "You two made contact, and then he was knocked down."
"Huh? How did you come into contact?" Li Yan explained with gestures: "I just wiped him at most."
"Even if I knew Kung Fu, I wouldn't be like this. He's just acting." Li Yan said excitedly: "Absolutely diving!"
Seeing Li Yan's hands moving faster and faster, the referee was so frightened that he took two steps back.
In the regular season, when the Nuggets played the Spurs, Li Yan was the one who officiated the game when he used "Lightning Five Whips" to destroy Bowen.
A bad guy like Bruce Bowen would stay in the hospital for months after being beaten.
How can my body be compared to that of an NBA player? I can't even go straight to the ICU if I get shaved off!
Li Yan saw the referee take two steps back and realized that he was a little excited, but before he could apologize, he was hugged by JR Smith.
"Lee, calm down."
"This is the Western Conference finals, you can't hit the referee." JR Smith said excitedly: "If you hit the referee, you can't play!"
"Fuck, JR, don't mess with me." Li Yan was very helpless: "Which of your eyes saw that I was going to hit the referee?"
"Li, calm down, I'm not messing with you. As long as you don't hit the referee, you can mess with me!" JR Smith held Li Yan tightly, for fear that he would do something outrageous.
"Nah!" Li Yan was speechless. What kind of thinking is going on with your sister?
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Li Yan calmed down and explained: "I will just explain to the referee what I just did."
"You moved more slowly, didn't you see that the referee was frightened?" JR Smith said with a sigh of relief.
Li Yan: (⊙O⊙)…I’m so amiable…
No way, he is indeed a "veteran actor", Horry's acting skills are great.
Although it's a bit exaggerated, it doesn't count as scratching, right?
The referee saw Li Yan retreating with an apologetic smile on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yan's harmless image really didn't look like he could fuck Bowen to the point of being hospitalized. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.
Horry was pulled up by Ginobili, with a smile on his face.
This ball was actually Horry's use of experience to hit Li Yan. Li Yan had already realized it, but he still hit it.
George Karl was also very helpless when he saw the penalty. Robert Horry is indeed an experienced "old slicker". It is normal for Li Yan to suffer a little loss, as long as it does not affect his mentality.
Of course, Li Yan couldn't swallow this tone of voice. Li never stayed overnight when he had a grudge, he always reported it on the spot.
Now, Li Yan is thinking about how to deal with the Spurs' gang of old men.
Spurs round.
Ginobili held the ball through half court.
Li Yan went up to put pressure on Ginobili. Li Yan's defense was very clean and his hand movements were very small.
Li Yan doesn't know if Ginobili is an actor, but since they are all Spurs players, they should not be much better. The influence of the team culture is subtle.
Ginobili changed direction drastically, trying to pass Li Yan.
However, Li Yan's prediction of the defensive line was very accurate, and he was not fooled.
Ginobili pulled the ball back, and Li Yan immediately followed.
Without getting rid of Li Yan, Ginobili passed the ball to Oberto inside. Oberto turned around and made a small hook, "DUang!"
Just a little missed, the basketball hit the front of the basket.
Nene collected the rebound and immediately gave it to Li Yan.
In the transition between offense and defense, the Spurs retreated quickly and the Nuggets had no chance to launch a fast break.
Li Yan suppressed the rhythm and waited for his teammates to get into position. The two sides came to the position battle.
Still on the pick-and-roll, Li Yan used Nene's screen to get rid of Ginobili.
It was Robert Horry who switched to guard Li Yan.
Li Yan held the ball and observed it. Horry saw Li Yan keeping a distance from him and smiled slightly.
It seemed that the rookie was a little scared.
Haha, today's great six-time crown winner is going to let this rookie feel the fear of being dominated by experience.
Li Yan continued to dribble and change direction, but Horry remained unmoved.
I have to say that Horry still has two skills. If he can’t keep up, then I won’t follow.
However, even if the enemy doesn't move, Li Yan still has to move.
Li Yan dribbled the ball and broke through. When he saw Horry's slightly open arms, Li Yan showed an excited smile.
"Snapped!"
Li Yan reached out very quickly, and Robert Horry had no time to react before Li Yan hooked his arm.
One step, two steps...
Robert Horry was rushed out by Li Yan with a confused look on his face.
Li Yan started dribbling, got up and shot, a very smooth set of movements.
The moment he threw the ball away, Li Yan showed a painful expression.
"Beep! Beep beep!"
The referee blew the whistle decisively and it was a thug's foul.
No problem, Horry's hand did hook Li Yan's shooting hand, affecting the end of the round.
"Wang Defa?" Horry was stunned. He explained to the referee: "He hooked my arm and then rushed out by himself. I didn't move at all!"
Horry has been playing basketball for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen an offensive player take the initiative to hook a defensive player's arm. What the hell is this doing?
The referee ignored Horry and gave Li Yan two free throws without hesitation.
The Pepsi Center burst into applause, and the fans all praised the referee for being fair and upright!
At the same time, the system's voice sounded in Li Yan's mind:
Ding! The host witnessed the famous scene: the "Porcelain King" advanced and made his first appearance in the NBA with a sandwiched arm breakthrough! Two attribute points were awarded!
Damn it! Li Yan instantly became energetic. Is this system encouraging him to carry out technological innovation?
