There are bugs on the face? Fight bugs? Do you think this is the wilderness? Besides, it takes so much force to hit bugs? Half of my face turns red? Do you...think I'm an idiot?

The referee is also a serious person, so he stared at Howard and Tang Qian and said: "You'd better tell the truth. Do you think I will believe this bullshit excuse?" Tang Qian just shrugged and said: "We are telling the truth.

Ah, is it Dwight?"

Under the pressure of Tang Qian's force, Howard could only nod along with "humiliation".

"Look, Mr. Referee, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Tang Qian said: "It's really just helping to fight bugs. This is the mutual friendship between teammates. You can't interfere in this, right?" "What about just now?

What's going on with the screams? Don't tell me that you're also 'fighting bugs'!" The referee was obviously not someone to be fooled easily, so he found another way to break through.

I thought this would make Lakers No. 29 speechless, or at least panic for a while, but unexpectedly, the former just started talking nonsense and said: "Referee, that's massage, you know massage, right? That's how it works.

If it's not painful or itchy, it won't have the effect. We do this all the time. If you don't believe me, just ask him." As soon as these words came out, the entire Lakers team looked at Tang Qian with a vague change in their eyes.

Damn, this Eastern guy is so easy to talk nonsense, right?

It started with killing bugs, and now it has turned into massage. This No. 29 is really... so sinister!

Be more careful in the future to avoid being tricked by him!

"Massage? Do you know how to massage?" Of course the referee knew about this thing, but he didn't quite believe that Tang Qian knew it. Tang Qian said with a smile: "There are not many of us Chinese who can't do it, sir, it's just a very common thing."

Tang Qian spoke naturally and fluently, as if such a thing was really happening. Anyway, Americans have a blind eye on the other side of the ocean, and it is impossible to go to China to verify it in person, so Tang Qian is not afraid of being exposed no matter what he says.

.

"This...Dwight, was he really giving you a massage just now?" The referee looked at No. 29's calm and calm expression and was a little unsure, so he simply asked the person involved directly. He didn't believe a person.

After being beaten, he will still speak up for the person who beat him. Therefore, Howard's words will be the "ultimate argument."

But Howard said this: "Yes, Mr. Referee, just now, just now, the iron was indeed massaged on me."

When he said this, Howard's heart was bleeding. After being beaten, he still had to speak up for the "murderer" who beat him. Who wouldn't be depressed about this kind of thing? But...

"Really?" Seeing that Howard had said that, what else could he say? He could only open his mouth and confirm again.

"Yes, it's true, sir." Howard gritted his teeth inwardly.

The referee was also confused, because this kind of thing happened for the first time in his law enforcement career, but no matter how you look at it, it's a bit too weird, isn't it? Hitting an insect so hard? Is massaging the same as killing a pig? Is it really like this?

Thing?

"Well, well, since that's the case, you should be careful and don't make too much noise, which can easily cause misunderstanding." After the three referees finished speaking, they looked at Howard several times in confusion, then turned around and walked away. Only Howard was the one.

I almost felt like a riot!

Because he clearly saw the last look in the eyes of the referees as if to say:

Hey, wasn't this guy stupid after being slapped? He actually talked to the person who hit him? Is there something wrong with his head?

Well, I guess it's a bit. Looking at his appearance, his muscles must have grown into his brain.

Oh, that's so pitiful.

Fuc.k!!!Fuc.k!!!Fuc.k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn you Oriental guy!!! You actually bully people like this!!! I must kick you out!!! I must let your reputation be ruined!!!

"Okay, stop looking. The referee has walked away. It's too late to regret." Tang Qian said to Howard in a slightly mocking tone: "Remember what you said today, otherwise the next time you 'fight bugs', you will be wrong."

It's not so gentle anymore, do you understand?" Howard saw that Tang Qian was still squeezing his hand, so he could only "sit down and endure hardship" for the time being.

Already."

"Well, okay." After getting the answer, Tang Qian nodded with satisfaction, then as if he remembered something, he added to Dwight Howard, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you.

Now, let Gary Vitti take you to the locker room to check it carefully, otherwise if you have any minor problems, don’t blame me."

After Tang Qian let go, Howard felt that his right hand seemed... to have lost consciousness.

Completely numb!!!

Damn it!!! Labor is the number one center in the league!!! Labor is in a contract year this year!!! If he suffers a serious injury that affects his career, wouldn’t it be bad luck!!! Thinking of this

Howard didn't even care about Tang Qian's eyes. He turned around and went straight to the end of the bench, where the Lakers team's medical team was sitting. At the same time, he shouted loudly: "Gary, Gary, check me quickly. I seem to have no feeling in my hands."

!!!”

After Howard hurriedly went to the end of the bench, Mike D'Antoni suddenly stood behind Tang Qian and said: "Hot, it's not very wise for you to do this, because now Howard is still the 'future favorite' above. Wait

At the end of the regular season, no matter whether the result is good or bad, the management will definitely kill you in order to appease Howard. At that time, the situation may not be good."

When Tang Qian saw it was D'Antoni, he replied calmly: "That is a matter for the management. As a player, I just have to do my best on the basketball court. I don't want to think too much about the rest, and I am too lazy to think about it."

After hearing Tang Qian's answer, Anthony nodded, then lowered his voice and said at a volume that only the two of them could hear: "Don't worry, I will speak for you. If I were still the head coach of the Lakers at that time,

.”

Hearing this, Tang Qian showed a slight smile and said: "Don't worry, Mr. D'Antoni, you must still be the head coach of the Lakers at that time. I have confidence in you." D'Antoni also smiled, and then

Said: "Then can you handle this game? If I can't make it to the playoffs, the management will definitely not let me go. Over the years, the NBA has a tradition of coaches taking the blame."

"Remember what I told you in the last game?" Tang Qian said before coming on the court: "I will not let the Lakers be eliminated. Likewise, I will not let you be eliminated." These words Mike

This is not the first time D'Antoni has heard it, but every time, it makes him feel warm and comfortable.

…

Howard temporarily took a rest due to "discomfort", and the Lakers replaced center No. 29 Tang Qian.

With 1 minute and 20 seconds left in the first quarter, the Lakers came on the court again.

Faced with the sluggish team morale, Tang Qian was extremely confident and said: "Paul, before the end of the first quarter, we have to force the main force of the Houstonians to come back on stage! Okay?" Gasol heard this and was stunned and said: "

"Hot, I guess they won't be the main force again in this quarter, or even in the whole game. After all, they are already 26 points ahead, almost entering..." The word "garbage time" has not been said yet.

When he came out, he heard No. 29 of the Lakers intercepting him and saying: "No, Paul, it won't enter garbage time, because the game has just begun."

Tang Qian showed Gasol's incomprehensible smile and said, "Believe me, their main force will be back soon."

Originally, without Kobe, Nash, Ci Shiping, Howard and Gasol should have taken the lead. Unfortunately, one of them was "absent-minded" and had no interest in the future of the Lakers. The other wanted to contribute, but had no mental and leadership skills.

Talent is inherently flawed. This allowed the Lakers' No. 29 to temporarily take over and become the temporary spiritual supporter of the Lakers.

The current lineup of the Rockets is: PG Patrick Beverley, SG Carlos Delfino, SF Francisco Garcia, PF Terrence Jones, C Chandler Parsons. Except for one Parsons, almost

It is an all-substitute lineup, and Parsons is asked to play the 5th position, obviously to strengthen the firepower and grab points. Whether it is Terrence Jones or Chandler Parsons in the inside, they are both rebounding and defense.

An unreliable person, with such a defensive lineup, Tang Qian would be embarrassed not to show his fangs.

"How will the Lakers attack?" Bill McDonald said: "Should we continue to bet on the shooting percentage of the three-point shot, or should we let Paul inside handle it in the low post? Jamison received the ball from the top of the arc. Judging from his movements, it should be

I have to take a shot directly, but the space for this ball is not good. Rockets defender Francisco Garcia has already followed me. If I force the shot..."

Since Jamison lost the athletic ability of his youth, he has played more and more outside. Although Francisco is 31 years old this year, it is not difficult to keep up with Jamison, who is close to 37 years old. The most important thing is that Jamison

His personal ability has also declined significantly this season. He is okay in the open position, but his hit rate on top-up shots is far lower than before. If it were in his peak period, it would be a matter of minutes to defeat a Garcia. He has many career goals.

He averaged 20+ points per game this season, which is definitely not a boast.

It's a pity that time makes people grow old, and he is already a little too old, so it becomes more and more difficult to eat Francisco Garcia, who is nearly 6 years younger. Besides, even though Garcia is not as tall as Jamison and does not weigh enough, he

His wingspan and determination to mark people are not bad at all. His wingspan exceeds 210cm, which makes him enough on the defensive end to contain Jamison, who is 2cm taller than him. However, the most important thing is the decline in athletic ability and physical fitness, which makes Jamison lose

The scenery of the past.

Just when Jamison was about to take action, Tang Qian stood on the inside and shouted: "Pass~ Pass the ball~"

Jamison didn't take it seriously, and shot anyway. The basketball drew an imperfect arc, and then hit the front of the Rockets' basket hard. "Oh~no~ it didn't hit, Jamison."

The three-point shot failed. We must retreat as soon as possible. The Rockets' lineup has a good transition ability, but... Feng grabbed the rebound! Feng squeezed Parsons and grabbed the offensive rebound! Feng did not pass the ball.

, he took off directly...a beautiful dunk under the basket!!!" With Bill McDonald's shouts, Tang Qian scored the Lakers' 20th point goal.

20-44, 24 points behind the opponent.

This scene is not too surprising, because Tang Qian was originally second in the rebounding list this season and was very strong. Parsons, who forced himself to the 5th position, only averaged 5+ rebounds per game. He was occasionally beaten by the former.

Getting an offensive rebound is not news. Just do a better job of blocking the defense in the next round.

Rockets head coach Kevin McHale thinks so.

He didn't expect that the substitute interior combination of Parsons + Terrence Jones could produce any sparks. The core of this lineup is not defense, but offense. It only requires maximum points. Strive for it.

Breaking 50+ points in a single quarter caused the Lakers to completely collapse and their morale was cleared.

There is no problem with this plan. After all, as far as the substitute lineup is concerned, all 5 people on the field average more than 5+ points per game, two of them score more than 10+, and one has 15+. The firepower is excellent at the substitute level. And

Most of them have the ability to shoot 3-pointers, which makes it more difficult for the Lakers to defend, and the space is obviously opened up.

Therefore, in Kevin McHale's view, relying on offense to support defense is enough to sustain the Los Angeles Lakers until they collectively lose their fighting spirit.

I thought this game would be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers, but it seems that I thought too much. After losing the absolute core Kobe Bryant, the Lakers' overall desire to win is not as good as before.

Okay, let's take advantage of this breath and make a good start for the playoffs.

Kevin McHale thought in his mind.

The Rockets really did their best, and Parsons hit a three-pointer from the outside, giving the Lakers a strong response.

After scoring the goal, Parsons nodded exaggeratedly, feeling like "Why am I so stupid?"

20-47, the Rockets' lead was even greater.
