The invincible kryptonite of basketball

With the experience after time travel, he has gone through different stages, and now, he has a new motivation, which is his two sons.

This is more important than any previous stage.

The first day of the Western Conference semifinals ended, the Pelicans beat the Rockets, and the Cavaliers also beat the Eagles.

The strength and state shown by the two teams shows that they are both ready for the next stage of the game.

On the second day after the end of these two battles, the remaining two groups of divisional semifinals will also be played one after another.

The Knicks in the East play against the Raptors, and the Warriors in the West play against the Spurs.

These two games also attracted much attention, especially the Warriors and Spurs.

The two teams advanced easily in the first round, and what kind of sparks will be sparked in the second round of direct collision is expected.

The game between the Knicks and the Raptors took the lead.

The process and results of this game were unexpected.

The Knicks have played an absolute playoff experience, but the opposing Raptors' trash brothers are as "stable" as ever.

Lowry and DeRozan scored 22 points together, and the Raptors lost 20 points away.

It seems that this year's Eastern Conference is still the stage for the Cavaliers and Knicks.

The Eastern Conference game is over, and the next game is the Spurs playing the Warriors.

After training, Tang Tian and Davis made an appointment to watch the game together in the locker room.

But this time there is one more person, Diaw, who is also a former Spurs player.

Dior is a real life player, and he also brought a coffee machine and a bunch of delicious food.

This greatly improves their viewing quality.

Drinking coffee and chatting, the topic of whether the Spurs can beat the Warriors naturally cannot escape.

"Kawhi had a left ankle injury early in the season, and it's been really difficult for him this year."

Dior inadvertently mentioned Leonard's recent situation.

The Spurs have never disclosed this news, which is considered news to Tang Tian and Davis.

But Tang Tian suddenly remembered something.

He has been away from the Spurs for a long time, and often he doesn't pay that much attention. Diao reminded him.

If I remember correctly, in his last life, Leonard suffered a serious injury in the Western Conference finals of the playoffs this year, and then had a big conflict with the Spurs.

Now because of his intervention, history has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

However, the Spurs and Warriors are the two teams that are less affected by this butterfly effect, and it is a coincidence that the two teams met again in the playoffs.

Although not in the Western Conference Finals, it is still hard not to think of the two teams that have not changed much.

After thinking about it, Tang Tian said hello to Davis and Dio, and went out with his mobile phone.

There is still more than half an hour before the start of the game. If there is no accident, Leonard should still be in the locker room.

The phone got through, but unfortunately no one answered.

It's not silent, it's in the closet.

He tried hitting Manu Ginobili again, same result.

It seems the Spurs are taking this game seriously.

Maybe it's just my own overthinking, after all, history has changed.

Tang Tian thought about it and went back to the locker room with his mobile phone.

The game was about to start soon, Tang Tian waited until it started but didn't receive a call back.

The Spurs quickly entered the state at the beginning of the game. Leonard was in a fiery state. No matter whether he was facing Durant, Iguodala or Thompson, or even double-teamed, he could make the ball, no matter how he played.

"It seems that the old man let go of his right to shoot tonight!"

Dio laughed and said.

Since Tang Tian left, Popovich has learned a lesson, no matter how good Leonard is, his shots and scoring are strictly controlled.

So even though Leonard's scoring average is not low, the season's highest score has never exceeded 30, which is a miracle.

That's what Dior said.

Regardless of facing the Warriors, it is indeed necessary to untie this seal.

Leonard was unstoppable, scoring 26 points, 8 rebounds and 1 steal at halftime.

If we continue to fight with this posture, it is not a question of whether we can break 30 points, but it is possible to go for 40 points or 50 points.

Under his outstanding performance, the Spurs led the Warriors by as much as 25 points at halftime.

Such a scene surprised everyone. While the fans were shouting Leonard's awesomeness, they also lamented the unfathomable depth of the Spurs in the playoffs.

Although low-key, this team, like the Pelicans, Warriors, and Cavaliers, is still a favorite to win the championship!

But Tang Tian frowned. He looked at his phone and then watched the game. This scene was really familiar to him.

By the third quarter, his premonition came true.

In an offense, Leonard faced Pachulia's backward shot, and when he landed, Pachulia stepped on his foot and fell to the ground.

Dio's half-drunk coffee cup nearly falls to the floor and shatters.

Afterwards, Leonard was helped back to the locker room. His expression was painful, and it seemed that his ankle was seriously injured.

After Leonard left the game, the Warriors went on an 18-0 run that nearly wiped out the Spurs' previous lead.

The Spurs' championship dream ended after 24 minutes at halftime.

Chapter 972 It's Just Close

"This Pachulia should have gotten out of the league a long time ago."

Davis said angrily.

When Pachulia tried to step on Tang Tian, ​​he was already very upset.

Now that he finally succeeded in stepping up Leonard, this really wiped out the strongest core of the opponent with the smallest cost.

This approach is really disgusting.

"This guy don't let me see him!"

After Dio regained his composure, he put the coffee cup on the table vigorously, and he, who was always in the life department, was also angry.

In fact, stepping on one's feet is too despicable and will be despised by everyone.

"We'll meet him."

Tang Tian's tone was calm, but his words were cold.

Davis and Dior nodded one after another after listening.

There is no problem with what Tang Tian said.

The results of Leonard's injury will not come out so quickly, but judging by his painful expression and limping when leaving the field, the season reimbursement is inevitable.

The Spurs can't beat the Warriors without Leonard.

In other words, if the Pelicans can pass the Rockets, then the opponent in the Western Conference Finals is still the Warriors.

Tang Tian didn't say any other harsh words, but he could feel from his eyes that if Pachulia dared to step up in the match against them, he would make Pachulia even more memorable than the last time.

The game was not over yet, and the Spurs finally recovered after being beaten 18-0, and were in a stalemate with the Warriors.

At this time, the fans on the hotline were already crazy.

"Why hasn't Pachulia left the alliance yet? How many people will he kill?!"

"This kind of person will disappear from the NBA earlier! If he steps up Don and James, the loss to the league at that time will be immeasurable!"

"He dares! Has he forgotten the last time Tang beat his front teeth? This guy is bullying!"

"The Warriors should just cut him!"

"But...is it possible? I didn't say that, isn't Green kicking eggs all right? Stepping...it's about the same."

"The league should suspend the game quickly! It is best to suspend the game indefinitely!"

……

Amidst the fans' comments, the game between the Spurs and the Warriors ended. The Spurs were finally reversed by the Warriors 111 to 113, and it was a pity that they lost the game.

The game is over, but the rant about Leonard's injury and Pachulia has never ended.

Tang Tian also called Leonard after the game, and the latter finally picked up this time.

"It's not his fault. My ankle was injured. It was an accidental injury."

On the phone, Leonard had a completely different voice from the fans.

"Recover well, and tell me as soon as you need anything."

Tang Tian didn't say much.

Leonard is still too young.

Pachulia stepped on his feet while turning his head, creating the illusion that it wasn't intentional, and even Leonard himself felt that way.

But no, he could tell at a glance.

But he is no longer a Spurs player, and he can do nothing but comfort Leonard.

As for Pachulia, even if he has a good relationship with Tatum, he is not a member of his own team, and he is not suitable to say anything.

On the second day, the games between the Pelicans and the Rockets, and the Cavaliers and the Eagles will continue to unfold.

But before the start of the game, fans were most concerned about Leonard's injury.

Also in the evening of this day, the Spurs officially announced Leonard's injury report.

Sprained ankle, out for the season.

Judging from the injury report, Leonard's injury is better than expected.

It wasn't an Achilles tendon problem, and it didn't rupture, which was a blessing in misfortune.

If he recovers well, he might be able to catch up with the next season's training camp.

The injury report silenced the fans' attacks a bit.

The league also issued a statement at this time that Pachulia's stepping was unintentional, and the league will not suspend or fine him.

The Warriors also did not impose a team suspension on Pachulia.

This result made the fans extremely disappointed.

Tang Tian was also a little surprised.

It's not surprising for the Warriors, it's the league that is strange.

After all, it is Tatum and not Xiao Hua who is in charge of the league now, so there is no reason to favor the Warriors.

But after thinking about it, he may also understand the reason why the league made this decision.

The current league encourages confrontation, and if you are suspended, you will slap yourself in the face.

Not to mention the alliance interests involved.

It seems that by the end of the season, he still has to sit down with Tatum to communicate.

Going too far is not necessarily a good thing.

Of course, that was after the end of the season, and now the second game between the Pelicans and the Rockets is about to start, and his attention is on this game.

The New Orleans Arena was still full that night, and the intensity of the game was the same as the previous game.

The difference is that Tang Tian's touch this time has dropped compared to the previous one.

After halftime, he only scored 15 points, and the two teams also tied at 42.
