And, as Qin Yue gradually felt that the calls he received on defense were even more favorable than before, he quickly began having fun on the court by tormenting the players he was tasked with defending.
Kobe, who led the Lakers to face the Warriors in mid-November, saw his teammate Pau Gasol suffer miserably.
In the game, Big Gasol was repeatedly knocked to the ground by Qin Yue's aggressive hits, ending the night with a mere 8 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists, shooting only 2 of 10 from the field and making all 4 of his free throws.
And Qin Yue?
Qin Yue totaled 31 points, 18 rebounds, 11 assists, 4 blocks, and 4 steals.
With the referees' tacit approval...
Qin Yue, using his physical gifts to bully his opponents, often managed to strip the ball from Big Gasol on the court.
In this second match against the Lakers, it was by freezing Big Gasol through Qin Yue's efforts that the Warriors effectively restrained the Lakers' triangle offense initiation.
