This suffocating turn lasted nearly 30 seconds.
After missing the offensive opportunity, James stood up and complained to the referee, believing that Gee indeed committed a foul.
This incident had no further follow-up, as the referees tonight were very strict with their calls, judging through their on-the-spot sensations.
If it went beyond that degree, it was a foul; if not, it wasn't.
After winning the ball, Gee punched the air and roared in triumph, the events that had unfolded since the start of the game made this seemingly insignificant league figure's impact exceed his wildest dreams.
"Can you hold against Artest?"
Fei asked before Gee threw the ball in.
Gee couldn't guarantee it but said, "I'll fight tooth and nail to hold him off."
"You have no advantage over him, but there's one thing..." Fei said, "he doesn't like to move much on defense, but on offense, it's quite the contrary."
Then, Fei dribbled to the frontcourt and targeted Pau Gasol for attack again.
