The invincible kryptonite of basketball

The only bright spot is that Westbrook averaged 35.3 points per game in these two games, scoring explosively.

The Pelicans want to expand their winning streak, and limiting Westbrook's scoring will be the key point.

This game is still at the home court of the Pelicans.

The New Orleans Arena that night was still crowded with people.

However, two different audiences came to the scene, and they were all captured by the photographers at the scene.

One is Emma Watson and the other is Scarlett Johansson.

Watson came to New Orleans because of Chinatown. By the way, she had a look at the game. She also had a female friend by her side.

As for Scarlett, I don't know why.

Durant was a little handsome in a suit, sitting on the bench, and when he looked up and saw Scarlett appearing on the LED screen, his emotions were a bit complicated.

This was the first time he saw Scarlett in the basketball arena, but he couldn't play this game due to injury.

It's like being circumcised and the goddess invites you to spend the night at her house.

And he also saw Tang Tian and Westbrook greeting each other in the midfield.

The feelings of women and brothers were gradually lost, and he remembered the experience of being robbed of the scoring champion by Tang Tian last season.

Just wait, when he comes back, he will get everything back!

Both sides completed the warm-up before the game, and then entered the opening ceremony.

The starting players of both sides appeared one after another.

The Thunder have Westbrook and Andre Robertson on the outside, and Adams and Ibaka on the inside.

Durant was unable to play due to injury, and Perry Jones replaced him in the starting lineup.

Jones performed well in the first two games, averaging 15+ points per game, and is now the Thunder's No. [-] scorer after Westbrook.

After Durant was injured, the once No. [-] high school student in the United States, who was a favorite for the No. [-] pick, finally seized the opportunity and wanted to play.

The Pelicans had a regular lineup, and when Tang Tian was finally introduced, the cheers were deafening.

Watson was still sitting there like a lady, but Scarlett was already shouting excitedly with the fans beside her.

The photographer at the scene was very naughty, and captured this scene and put it on the large LED screen, which attracted a burst of whistles from the fans.

Scarlett was very relaxed, seeing herself on the big LED screen, holding her chest and laughing.

Durant looked at the position of Scarlett's hand on the big screen, feeling a little aggrieved.

Such a good person, but it's a pity that he didn't laugh for him.

"beep!"

There was a long whistle from the sidelines, and the on-site photographers also cut back to the field.

Starting players from both sides came on stage one after another, and the game between the two teams started immediately.

Ibaka jumped to beat Davis, giving the Thunder a chance to take the lead.

Westbrook took the ball to the frontcourt, and Adams mentioned a high pick-and-roll.

Westbrook accelerated one step, and used Adams' pick-and-roll to directly pull up a jumper.

His stem straight up and down is very stiff, and Tang Tian's picturesque stem is completely two extremes.

Whiteside fought to save the interference.

"Dangdang!"

Westbrook hid the block in the air and raised the arc of his shot, jumping out of the basket.

But at this moment, Adams pressed Holiday to take off the offensive rebound, turned around and gave it to Westbrook.

Westbrook's zombie pulled out and shot again.

"Dangdang!"

Still don't get in.

It's still Adams, who gets stuck and rushes back to Whiteside, grabs another offensive rebound before Davis's hand, and then finds Westbrook!

At this time, Adams hadn't grown a beard yet, and his face was young, but he had already revealed the potential of a future front-line monster, cardboard sharpshooter, and Aquaman.

Westbrook's third dry pullup, this time from just 12 feet from the basket.

"Shh!"

The basketball hit the net, and his shot finally hit.

The Thunder took the lead.

Chapter 584 The Bomber Showdown (Fourth Update!)

"Hassan, pay attention to his positioning, he is very good at positioning."

Tang Tian turned around and reminded Whiteside.

In the last game against the Heat, Whiteside showed his strength, but he lacks experience and still has a lot to learn.

Whiteside nodded after listening, he listened to Tang Tian's words very much.

In the offense of the Pelicans, Robertson is close to Tang Tian. This second-year player's defense is better than that of Matthews before him.

But he was still sticking too tightly, Tang Tian accelerated to shake him away, and then shot dryly.

"Dangdang!"

His first shot also missed the basket.

The rim at New Orleans Arena kind of refused to shoot tonight.

Adams caught Whiteside and took the defensive rebound.

The Thunder's offense, Westbrook was strictly guarded by Holiday, and he suddenly scored Jones.

As soon as Jones received the ball, Ariza quickly posted the defense back.

Jones feinted a shot to break through, but Ariza didn't eat it at all, forcing him to have no room to shoot.

Jones' forced fadeaway at the end almost missed the mark.

This time Whiteside caught Adams and protected the defensive rebound.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, and Tang Tian continued to hold the ball.

Robertson let Tang Tian go more than half a step this time, and his defensive IQ is very high.

Tang Tian pulled out his hand directly after seeing it.

The pose is picturesque.

"Dangdang!"

But the basketball still hits the frame!

Adams stuck Whiteside, and Ibaka recovered and took off the defensive rebound.

After making both shots, Tang Tian realized that he didn't feel good tonight.

In the Thunder's offense, Westbrook made a three-pointer after Adams' pick-and-roll.

"Dangdang!"

It's also a strike!

Davis turned around and took off the defensive rebound.

Tang Tian received the ball again in the frontcourt. He didn't make a strong attack. He called Davis to mention the high pick-and-roll. After breaking it, he broke through and returned to Davis.

This is a classic fit between the two.

Davis' mid-range shot from the free throw line.

"Dangdang!"

Still iron!

Whiteside struggled to get the ball out at this time.

The ball flew into Ariza's hands, and Ariza made a quick three-pointer.

"Dangdang!"

Whiteside and Adams were stuck at the basket, and Robertson rushed to protect the defensive rebound.

The Thunder counterattacked directly, and Jones caught the ball in the frontcourt to meet Ariza's small throw.

"Dangdang!"

Still don't enter, still hit the iron!

There was an uproar on the sidelines, and the fans panicked.

The two teams played for more than three minutes, and only scored 2 points in total!

The sound of hammering iron can be heard endlessly on the field.

Kobe is not here tonight, but the Mamba spirit has been passed down in the New Orleans Arena!

Tang Tian turned around and picked up a rebound, and when he dribbled to the frontcourt, he directly signaled Ariza to come over to pick and roll.

In the past few minutes, it's not just that he doesn't feel good, it's that both sides are bad.

At this time, there is only one way to occupy the top.

Ariza's pick-and-roll quality is high.

But what is more important is Tang Tian's starting speed, which accelerated the moment the pick-and-roll was formed, and did not give Robertson time to go around the pick-and-roll at all.

Unpacking the dislocation and facing Jones, Tang Tian continued to accelerate.

Jones' knee injury caused him to lose the explosiveness he had in college, as well as his speed, and he was squeezed by Tang Tian within two steps.

Adams didn't react at this time.

Tang Tian rose from the ground.

"Oh!"

A one-handed dunk smashed the ball into the basket.

Both teams feel cold, no matter whether it is a problem with the frame, if you smash the ball in, it will definitely not be ironed!

It's true that the closer to the basket the easier it is to score.

There was an instant burst of cheers.

After listening to the mamba symphony enough, the sound of a dunk moved them.

The Thunder's offense, Westbrook suddenly stepped up and started. After passing Holiday, he also dashed to the inside.

He was inspired by Tang Tian!

Whiteside wanted to come over to block, but was stuck to death by Adams.

Westbrook rushed inside like a bolt of lightning, leaping up before Davis could help.

"Oh!"

A heavy dunk, smashing the ball into the basket.

Tang Tian succeeded in dunking, and Westbrook also dunked back!

The emotions of the fans at the scene were completely excited.

This is like an NBA level game!

In the Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian continued to greet Ariza's pick-and-roll.

This time Robertson snatched the position ahead of time.

But the moment he grabbed the seat, Tang Tian turned to the right and passed him and Jones together!
