Because the number of fouls has arrived, Durant went straight to the free throw line.

After hitting both free throws, the Thunder went on a 7-0 run to stretch the margin to double digits.

The Lakers' offense, Howard this time directly fell to the low post with his back to Ibaka and reached for the ball.

After running for such a long time, he was a little fed up.

Blake gave the ball to Kobe, who hesitated for a moment and then gave the ball in.

Howard took the ball and chiseled it with his back to him.

Indeed, as the courtside commentary said, although Ibaka's confrontation ability has improved, there is still a gap with a top interior player like Howard.

However, he sank his weight and let Howard shoot under the basket and didn't let him go beyond the three-second zone.

Howard was about to go in, and what he wanted to do most at this moment was to smash the basketball into the Thunder's basket.

Dior decisively shrinks the basket after seeing it on the weak side.

"Bottom corner! Bottom corner! Bryant saw it and yelled at Howard under the basket, signaling that Jamison in the bottom corner was empty.

However, Howard didn't hear it at all, continued to chisel hard, got one foot into the three-second zone, and turned around to dunk.

Dior arrived at this time and directly stuck the position where Howard turned, Howard turned around and dunked but didn't get up, and the ball in his hand was slapped out by Ibaka.

The referee didn't blow the whistle and there was no foul on the ball.

The ball went out of the sideline in a scramble between Bryant and Westbrook.

The referee awarded the Thunder backcourt ball, and Bryant shook his head in annoyance.

But at this moment, there was a whistle under the basket.

The camera passed, and everyone realized that Howard and Ibaka were entangled under the basket, and the referee blew the whistle and motioned for the players on the court to help.

It turned out that Howard felt that the ball just now was fouled by Ibaka and went straight to it.

The players on both sides pulled for a while, and then the two were separated.

After watching the replay footage, the referee gave Howard a technical foul, and Howard angrily threw the towel on the sidelines, and if it wasn't for Gasol's view, he might have been ejected directly.

This scene was just an episode of the game, Howard was replaced by D'Antoni to calm down, and the two sides began to enter the bench rotation one after another.

The Thunder brought in Livingston, Harden, Collison and Brown in a row, leaving only Durant in the starter.

On the Lakers' side, only Artest was left in the starting five, and Jordi Meeks and Jordan Hill were also replaced one after another.

Livingston dribbled the ball across the half court against Blake's pressing, and then handed the ball to Harden to organize.

Meeks' main defense, Harden signaled to pull away and then went straight to single.

Meeks' strength is three-point shooting, and his defense is below the league average, and he is obviously a little overwhelmed by Harden at this time, and Harden's continuous change of direction quickly squeezes him to the basket.

Hill pounced to help defend, Harden directly hit the ball with a pass to the crotch to the basket Brown, and Brown took the ball with a two-handed dunk.

There was a commotion throughout Staples.

The Thunder's lead has come to 13 points.

Meeks missed a three-pointer, and Artest squeezed through Collison to score a layup, finally relieving the home team.

It's just that just after this breath, Harden assisted Durant to score three points in the frontcourt, and the difference returned to 14 points.

Artest's breakthrough layup missed, the Lakers came back to wrap Durant and Harden, Livingston received Harden's pass in the low post, and turned back to pull it back, the posture was picturesque, and the basketball was also firmly in the frame.

Livingston's role, in addition to dribbling over half court to help Harden share the pressure, the rest is this low-post back-to-back kick, which is even more textbook than textbook.

Tang Tian watched from the sidelines and nodded with satisfaction, it was right to let Livingston adapt first, and now it is completely seamless.

Blake's three-pointer from the outside was followed by Harden's buzzer-beating throw, and the first quarter ended with the Thunder leading the Lakers by 16 points, 32-16.

This is also the difference in strength between the two sides.

D'Antoni wants to bombard, but Nash and Gasol have limited physical strength, Kobe Bryant is no longer the "Peter Pan" he was a few years ago, and Howard is even more unhappy with the team's status.

In the second quarter, the bench played again, and when the two teams changed back to the main force one after another, the difference between the two sides was already outside 20 points.

The media hyped up before the game, but after all, there was a gap in the strength of the two sides, and Artest's three consecutive wins after joining were just an illusion.

Kobe Bryant's outside shot did not score, this is the third time in a row that he has not scored, the Lakers have dropped the shooting rate at other points due to physical exertion, and the Thunder can arbitrarily wrap Kobe.

Durant's outside three-pointer didn't score, but Ibaka grabbed the defensive rebound, Dior stuck to Howard, and Ibaka scored with both hands.

After the dunk, Ibaka looked excited and yelled at Howard twice.

Howard didn't say a word for a moment, and suddenly slammed his fist into Ibaka's chest.

Ibaka was caught off guard and was hit, and immediately rushed forward after reacting.

The two who had conflicts before no longer suppressed themselves and fought with each other at this time.

The referee's whistle blew everywhere, and the players of the two teams also went on the field to fight.

However, in the chaos, Artest gave Harden an elbow on the left side of his head and directly put the latter to the ground, and the players on both sides fell into complete chaos, and Westbrook jumped up and punched Artest in the head.

The players of the two teams also gave up directly and started directly at each other.

From the basket to the technical table, the basketball game is turned into a brawl court.

Screams of fans rang out from the scene, and security personnel rushed onto the field from the sidelines.

Tang Tian grabbed the players who were about to rush to the court at this time, called the team doctor up, and asked him to see Harden's situation.

When Harden was carried off the court and saw that Harden was not in a good condition, Tang Tian asked Stevens to go directly to the hospital with Harden.

Stevens and Harden left in a hurry, but the brawl did not stop, the computers on the technology desk were smashed in the chaos, and the fans on the sidelines were so frightened that they all ran away.

It wasn't until the security personnel completely pulled the two teams apart that more than ten minutes had passed, and Howard and Ibaka's heads were all open, and Blake and Westbrook were also swollen on both sides.

This is a complete martial arts!

It's also thanks to Tang Tian and D'Antoni that they are very sensible and didn't let the bench players rush forward, otherwise the consequences of this brawl would be much more serious than what they are now.

As a result, the game was interrupted for as long as half an hour, and the fans returned to the scene after being calmed, and the referee watched the video replay on the technical desk, the team doctors of the two teams were treating the wounds of their respective players, and the Thunder team even came up with a substitute team doctor.

The messy scene is comparable to the brawl at the palace in Auburn Hills nine years ago.
