268. Looking down on my clothes? (Ask for a monthly pass)
Seeing Su Jiu's sarcasm with a hippie face, Rondo, who was furious, finally couldn't help it.
Fortunately, Rondo is still maintaining a last bit of rationality at the moment. At least he still knows that this is the Eastern Conference semi-finals, and Su Jiu's mocking of his trash words is even more to anger himself.
So even though Rondo was already very angry at this moment, he still resisted the urge to hit someone and scolded Su Jiu fiercely:
"Shut up, you guys!! In my opinion, you are a lucky guy who won two high-quality games by chance."
"You really treat yourself as a character?! In my opinion, you are simply a trash, not worth mentioning!!"
Looking at Rondo, who had become gritted teeth in front of him, Su Jiu not only did not feel angry because of these words, but instead smiled proudly:
"Hey, yes, I just played two good goals by chance, so what, hey, at least it's more than enough to defend you, a guy who doesn't even score."
When Rondo heard Su Jiu's crazy words that were so angry that he was about to vomit blood, he did not continue to squirt with him.
Because Rondo was afraid that he would not be able to help but attack him.
He made a gesture to Garnett on the side, and then Rondo used Garnett's pick-and-roll to kill straight into the inside.
However, Su Jiu obviously had expected this, because Rondo now does not have long-range projection ability.
So when defending against pick-and-roll, Su Jiu can retreat without any pressure, focusing on defending Rondo's passes and breakthroughs.
Looking at Rondo, who was suddenly coming to him with a fierce look on his face, Su Jiu was not panicked at all, but there was a smile on his face that made people want to punch him.
"Bang!"
With a slight collision sound, Su Jiu directly covered his chin, and then fell backwards with an exaggerated look on his face.
Su Jiu, who was lying on the ground, covered his chin tightly with both hands, and then rolled on the ground in a little pain. While rolling, a howling like a pig was heard from his mouth.
"Ah~ My Hu..., my chin, coach... I'm finished!!"
As this sudden scene was heard on the court, the referee on the sideline blew the whistle and made a gesture to signal Rondo to make an offensive foul!!
As soon as he saw the referee's penalty, Rondo rushed up and spread his hands to the referee. His expression was very puzzled and angry, and he kept arguing with the referee in a loud tone.
"Fake a fall, fake fall, he is obviously a fake fall!!"
"This is a very normal physical contact. I didn't use any force at all. Even as soon as I touched him, he flew out. This was definitely a fucking fake fall!!"
Faced with Rondo's loud protest that had been following him, the referee first made a gesture to signal Rondo to calm down.
Then, when Rondo was slightly anxious, the referee made a heavy shoulder move towards Rondo.
It seemed like I was saying that you had a dangerous move with a heavy shoulder in this attack, so this is why I called you for an offensive foul.
When Rondo heard the referee's explanation, he was obviously very dissatisfied. He was about to continue to go forward to argue with him, but he was pulled down by Garnett on the side.
After all, even if the Celtics are the defending champion, once the players on the court question the referee's authority, the referee will not be spoiled by Rondo at all.
Charles Barkley: "Hey, let's see, there seems to be something wrong on the scene. Sue seemed to be hit in the jawbone position in this defense."
"And judging from the expression on his face, it seemed that this moment had brought him a lot of pain."
Kenny Smith: "Oh, that's right, Su looked quite painful on the ground, and his hands were also covering his jawbone."
"Actually, if Su's jawbone was hit by the shoulder of the pull-up tube in this defensive round, then this is really painful."
"Because we don't have a special protection mechanism for this position compared to basketball players, so we are actually very fragile."
"And under the violent collision, there is a high possibility of hanging rings, so the NBA will be more strict in the punishment of this kind of shoulder-sinking action."
Charles Barkley: "That's right, and the referee on the scene also gave an offensive foul on the pull-up side as soon as possible."
"And from the gesture, it seems that the yelling puller has a shoulder-sinking action in this offensive round."
"But looking at this situation, it seems that the referee is not particularly satisfied with the referee's penalty this time, and he has been defending the referee at this moment."
"It's just that just now it was too sudden, and even the referee on the sideline didn't react at the first time."
"The whistle was actually a bit late this time, but the referee finally gave a penalty like pulling the bullet and making an offensive foul."
"As for what happened just now, we will also take a look at the video playback given by the frontcourt later."
At the same time, the replay video of this ball was also played back on the big screen on the scene.
The moment the replay video appeared, Rondo raised his head immediately and stared at the sky above his head, as if he wanted to prove through replay that Su Jiu was really a fake fall this time!!
According to the video playback, Rondo used the pick-and-roll and went straight toward the inside.
However, when defending this pick-and-roll, Su Jiu did not have any upward pounce, but instead retreated directly to a farther position.
This also led to Rondo's speed-up just after using Garnett's pick-and-roll, and he collided with Su Jiu in front of him.
And just as Rondo was about to run into Su Jiu, Su Jiu lowered his center of gravity.
Rather than standing, it was a half-squat position. This situation also led to the moment Rondo, who was sprinting with all his might, had an intimate contact with Su Jiu's chin when he hit Su Jiu.
Judging from the video, although I can't tell how strong this moment was, I can clearly see that the first time Rondo just touched Su Jiu, Su Jiu fell straight backwards.
So there is no big problem with this offensive foul.
Because even if Su Jiu pretends to fall, there is indeed physical contact this time. But if Su Jiu is not pretending to fall, then there are indeed some signs of performance this time.
But no matter what, the referee has made a penalty. You know, there are no coaches challenging this kind of thing in this era.
Once the referee makes a penalty, even if it is proved that the referee is wrong through the subsequent video playback, he can only grit his teeth and swallow the bitter fruit by himself.
Just as the ball just started to be played back on the big screen on the scene, Su Jiu, who was lying on the ground at this moment, stood up with the help of his teammates.
After standing up, Su Jiu rubbed his chin without knowing whether it was true or not, and then looked at Rondo, who looked strangely unfair.
When Su Jiu's eyes met Rondo and his two eyes, Su Jiu laughed out loud in an instant.
He took off the braces from his mouth and exposed his neat row of snow-white teeth to Rondo.
Rondo was obviously even more angry when he saw Su Jiu's expression, but in the dead ball just now, Celtics head coach Rivers called the timeout as soon as possible.
So at this moment, Rondo just stretched out his index finger on his right hand and pointed it at Su Jiu a few times. Then, before the referee reacted, he turned around and walked towards the bench first.
Under the restless voice of the fans at the scene, looking at Rondo's back as he turned around, Su Jiu also walked towards his bench while laughing.
And while walking, Su Jiu reached out to touch the bearded stubble that had been left during this period.
While feeling the friction on his chin stubble, he smiled to himself:
"It seems that some people in the league have forgotten my nickname "Dianyi Zou"."
