When the basketball fell to a certain level, four people jumped up at the same time to catch the ball.

Lin Tian's outburst is not as good as before, he does not dare to risk his life to grab the ball, and his position is relatively poor.

The one closest to the basketball was Zaza, whose right hand touched the ball first.

But before Zaza could grasp the ball, Howard slapped him on the head.

Snapped!

ah!

After a crisp sound, Zaza's painful wails reached everyone's ears.

He was stunned by Howard's slap and fell to the ground, holding his head in his hands and rolling back and forth.

Beep beep beep!

The referee was also shocked and whistled hurriedly.

When Dream Green saw his teammates being beaten, he was instantly furious. He angrily walked up to Howard and wanted to ask for an explanation.

Lin Tian pushed Dream Chasing Green away at the right time. Although his face was expressionless, it made Dream Chasing Green a little afraid.

The atmosphere between the players on both sides became tense.

In order to prevent the situation from developing further, security personnel on the sidelines quickly entered the field and controlled the situation.

Zaza was still lying on the ground with a pained face, as if he was seriously injured.

The whole stadium was filled with cheers.

O'Neal said with a smile: "If you don't know, you might think who just made a wonderful dunk!"

Another commentator echoed: "Haha! Yes!"

Lin Tian on the court didn't expect Howard to strike so hard, but it happened that he didn't have to do it himself.

Anyone who knows him knows that he has always been a retributive person.

Even Yin Baka, the famous villain in the league, was defeated by him, not to mention a player like Zaza who is strong on the outside but hard on the inside.

The only thing he fears is being directly expelled.

Since Howard has become the villain, this revenge can be regarded as revenge.

Turning my attention to Zaza again, I saw that Zaza was still covering her head and refused to get up. She didn't know if she was just pretending.

The referee walked forward to ask about the situation, but he just kept howling, making Lin Tian dumbfounded.

The Warriors' team doctor had no choice but to quickly enter the court with a medical kit.

When they opened Zaza's hands, Lin Tiancai clearly saw an extremely obvious slap mark on Zaza's forehead.

Howard's slap was really hard.

The live broadcast camera quickly gave a close-up of Zaza's forehead, allowing tens of millions of viewers to see Zaza's injury.

Suddenly, the entire arena became more lively!

The entire Staples Center has almost never cheered so warmly just because a player was injured.

This seems to be very embarrassing for the Warriors players.

As a basketball veteran, Howard knows exactly what to do now.

He walked to the referee with his hands spread out and made an innocent expression: "Hey! This is not a foul, right? I just wanted to grab a rebound!"

The referee glared at Howard, with an expression that seemed to say: Do you think I'm a fool?

A full three minutes passed before Zaza stood up with the help of Green and Thompson.

He was helped to the bench unsteadily, and he seemed to be a little confused.

After confirming that there was no big problem with Zaza, the referee went to the technical table to watch the video replay.

The next penalty is extremely critical to the direction of the game, and the pressure on the referee can also be imagined.

This side of the Warriors bench.

Zaza took the ice cube handed over by the team doctor and applied it to his forehead, cursing: "Damn it! That guy did it on purpose! He must be expelled!"

Green also had a sullen face: "No one doesn't know what he did on purpose. If he is not ejected, I will find trouble with the referee."

After repeatedly watching the three-minute replay, the referee gave the penalty to the camera: Howard's first-level flagrant foul.

As soon as the penalty was issued, boos broke out. The home fans found it difficult to accept the penalty, thinking that the first-level flagrant foul was too serious.

But it was more difficult for the Warriors players to accept it. They felt it was too light.

Green jumped up anxiously. He ran to the referee and asked: "This is not a second-level flagrant foul? God! How did you make the penalty?"

The referee gave an explanation: "This was unnecessary physical contact, and there is no problem in awarding a first-level flagrant foul."

There is an essential difference between a first-level flagrant foul and a second-level flagrant foul.

The punishment for the former is often two free throws and one throw, while the latter directly expels the offending player, and may require additional penalties.

Green approached the referee relentlessly: "This is so unfair! You must be worthy of the whistle hanging around your neck!"

The referee immediately turned cold and said: "Are you questioning my professional ability? Don't force me to give you another foul!"

As soon as these words came out, no matter how angry Green was, he could only hold it in.

He returned to his own camp like a serious ghost, but kept spreading his hands.

The depressed mood gradually spread among the Warriors.

Penguin Sports Live Room.

"Howard did a great job! This should have been done a long time ago! It's best to destroy Zaza directly so that he can't hurt other people!"

"Haha! The first-level flagrant foul is still barely acceptable, especially when I saw Green jumping around in a hurry, I was even more happy!"

"I have been frustrated for three whole games, and I finally found my place today! Howard is awesome!"

"It is undoubtedly best to leave such a job to Howard! If Lin Tian does it himself, there will still be certain risks after all."

"Seeing such a clear slap mark on Zaza's forehead, forgive me for laughing unkindly! This slap is best to give him a concussion!"

"Zhaza, zhaza! How can I not get my shoes wet when I often walk by the river? Today I finally saw how powerful the Lakers are!"

"The Lakers are not the Spurs! Lin Tian is not coming to Leonard! It's not that he doesn't report, the time has not yet come! Hahahaha!"

The entire Penguin Sports live broadcast room was filled with "Hahaha" barrages all over the screen.

At the Staples Center Arena, Zaza took some time off and then returned to the court to take two free throws.

When he took a free throw, the boos from the audience seemed to shatter the eardrums, which indeed had a big impact on Zaza.

Under tremendous pressure, Zaza shot the first free throw.

Bang! The ball flew out of the frame, and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

After adjusting his condition, he quickly shot his second free throw.

This time I still couldn't put it in.

The boos at the scene turned into cheers.

Zaza's career free throw shooting rate is 75%, which is relatively good among many traditional centers. Missing two free throws is difficult for him to accept.

But the Warriors still have the ball.

After serving, Curry ran out of time to shoot a three-pointer, but still didn't score!

Howard jumped high and grabbed the rebound!
Chapter completed!
