The invincible kryptonite of basketball

D'Antoni's magical touch made Davis' dislocation advantage gone, and Jokic's offensive threat decreased under the new penalty scale. Tucker was not as easy to break through as expected.

However, their pre-match plan was not to hit this point.

Tang Tian stretched out his hand to signal the flanks to open, and Jokic dropped down.

The Rockets switched defenses inside, and Cousins ​​and Tucker switched defenses again.

Bzdelik's defensive thinking is very clear. When Jokic goes out, he uses Tucker to defend Jokic. When Jokic enters the inside, he switches back to Cousins.

To sum up, Cousins ​​is out of the three-second zone.

After Tang Tian saw it, he stretched out his hand to signal Jokic to the free throw line. While the latter was moving, he changed direction and accelerated to pass Gordon and break through.

Gordon's defense is much worse than Tucker's. Although he has the same body as a small steel cannon, lateral movement has always been a weakness.

With Tang Tian's sudden move, he was completely passed over.

Before Cousins' help defense came out, Tang Tian made an emergency stop near the free throw line.

"Shh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Tang Tian broke the Pelicans' scoring drought.

The shouting at the scene stopped abruptly.

Tang Tian poured a basin of cold water on them.

And back to the defensive end, the Pelicans' defense also changed. Ariza went to fight Gordon, and Tang Tian played against Harden as in the previous two games.

Harden tried to make Cousins ​​pick and roll unsuccessful, and gave the ball to Paul. After the pick and roll, Paul and Cousins ​​accelerated to the basket for a layup.

Davis helped the defense in place and directly blocked the ball, taking advantage of the opportunity to grab the defensive rebound.

Tucker playing the fourth position has a lot of benefits for the Rockets, but there are also disadvantages, such as rebounding.

Davis is not Green, and Tucker can't grab it at all.

The Pelicans advanced to the frontcourt, and Tang Tian continued to hit Gordon with the ball, another step, and another emergency stop.

"Shh!"

keep going!

Gordon's defense was far worse than Tucker's, and Tang Tian broke the defense so quickly that the Rockets' help defense couldn't even get up!

6 is better than 8!

After Tang Tian scored 4 points in a row, the Pelicans narrowed the point difference to 2 points!

D'Antoni and Bzdelik turned their heads to communicate.

Tang Tian's judgment on the situation on the field was too accurate.

In this way, the Pelicans don't need to misplace Cousins ​​at all. Tang Tian can directly beat Gordon to the point of doubting his life and directly destroy the Rockets.

"Wait another round."

Bzdelik said.

Paul continued to pick and roll with Cousins ​​in the frontcourt, facing Jokic's mid-range shot.

D'Antoni didn't lie after the last game. The Rockets played Jokic in the same way that the Pelicans played Cousins.

If Harden is restricted, Paul will play, and if Paul is restricted again, Gordon will be on.

Anyway, it's right to fight to the death.

10 to 6, the Rockets continued to lead.

Tang Tian received the ball again in the frontcourt, and under the signal of Bzdelik from the sidelines, the Rockets double-teamed ahead of schedule.

Tang Tian stepped forward to split Huo Ledi in the face of the double team, and shouted for Huo Ledi to vote.

Holiday didn't hesitate either. The Rockets had double-teamed Tang Tian in the first two games, and the others were very decisive.

"Shh!"

Basketball hit the net.

Holiday was competitive enough to make this open three-pointer!

9 is better than 10!

1 points difference!

Seeing this, Bzdelik was a little helpless, and said something to D'Antoni, and D'Antoni turned around and called Morris up.

What he said is to wait for a round to see how the rest of the Pelicans feel. Holiday's three-pointer is of great tactical significance.

A short whistle came from the sidelines, and Morris came on to replace Gordon.

The Rockets were forced to ditch their starting lineup.

"I'd be happy to coach a guy like that, he's completely turned the game around!"

Van Gundy exclaimed in the commentary booth.

He has been working in the commentary booth since he resigned from the Rockets, and he has no interest in the work of the NBA head coach.

But obviously, Tang Tian's performance aroused his interest in coaching.

Tang Tian's performance on the court seemed to be more than just a player, and his golf quotient seemed to be higher than that of Rondo.

This would really work well with a defensive coach like Van Gundy.

"That must be a very easy job."

Brin echoed from the sidelines.

Maddie laughed out loud.

These two guys...

Think about the current O'Neill and Barkley, is it true that the commentators are all Tang Chuan?

Paul singled Jokic in the frontcourt, and was interfered with in the middle distance.

Since Paul's meniscus injury in New Orleans, his singles ability has dropped a notch.

Compared with Harden, his singles efficiency is much lower.

This is also the targeted defense of the Pelicans before the game. If Harden is in good condition, let Tang Tian defend and force Paul to play singles.

This pre-match arrangement now seems to be very successful.

Davis received the defensive rebound, the Pelicans advanced to the frontcourt, and the ball was given to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian directly greeted Jokic for the high pick-and-roll.

If Tucker goes down, Cousins ​​will no longer be able to hide under the basket.

Morris was not fast enough to help defend. If he didn't come out again, Jokic blocked one, and Tang Tian was just practicing shooting.

In the high-position pick-and-roll, Jokic blocked Tucker to death, and Tang Tian misplaced to face Cousins.

The familiar average of the previous game was once again reproduced.

Dribble low and change direction continuously.

The Pelicans' wings were wide open. After Holiday made the first three-pointer, the Rockets' defense did not dare to come up casually.

Tang Tian slowed down, Cousins ​​was afraid of Tang Tian's shot and directly threw it.

Another acceleration of Tang Tian directly killed him.

The speed difference between the two is too much.

Tang Tian went to the basket, Davis stuck Morris, and he easily sent the ball into the basket.

11:10.

Although the start was unfavorable, with Tang Tian's personal momentum, the Pelicans managed to overtake the score!

Paul hit Jokic again in the frontcourt. This time his shot caused Jokic's thugs and made two free throws.

But in the next round, Tang Tian continued to fight Cousins.

With the experience of the last ball, Cousins ​​hesitated not to pounce too thoroughly.

But it is also the effort of this hesitation.

"Shh!"

Tang Tian's middle-distance strikes again!

"Hey! Look at Tang Tian, ​​hitting Cousins ​​is like hitting a wooden stake, one shot is accurate!"

In the broadcast booth, Zhang Weiping yelled with joy.

Chapter 975 Torn Achilles Tendon

Cousins ​​was depressed, quite depressed, extremely depressed.

In the era of Xiao Hua, he was pulled out of military training in various ways, and now in the era of Tatum, he still cannot avoid this experience!

It seems that it was not Xiao Hua who made him experience this kind of encounter, but the damn small ball era.

No, it's this damn Tang Tian!

How could this guy be so accurate and so ruthless, he is simply a monster!

He has played for so many years, including the NCAA, and has never seen such a perverted guy.

This guy is like a jerk!

In the first half of the first quarter, the two sides played various tactical games, and there were also various targets in the rotation.

But in the second half, it turned into a scene where Tang Tian singled out Cousins ​​and the Rockets singled out Jokic.

The two traditional centers were pulled out for various military training, enjoying the feeling of running on the beach in summer in advance.

But obviously, the scoring efficiency of the Pelicans is higher.

Small fight big, Tang Tian's advantage is too great.

Cousins ​​was beaten so badly that he was about to go violently.

In this quarter, Tang Tian scored 14 points just by facing "cousin". He really went in seven and out, killing it all.

The Rockets also trailed the Pelicans by double digits 22 to 32 in this quarter.

In the transition period of the second quarter, Gordon was in a hot state, but Williams and Bo Yang finally found their state for the Pelicans.

When the main players come back, 30 to 40 is still a 10-point difference.

After a timeout, the Rockets' offense came back, and Paul continued to misplace Jokic.

If Harden is taken care of by Tang Tian, ​​Paul dreams of returning to New Orleans and has a lot of shooting rights, but his strength obviously cannot go back.

In the first round of offense, his hand was not yet hot, and his shot hit the front of the basket and collapsed, and the rebound was accepted by Davis.

Looking back, Tang Tian also continued to beat Cousins.

Cousins ​​mobilized all the body cells in his body and used the strength of breastfeeding to follow Tang Tian's pace, but in the end he was almost knocked down.

"Shh!"

After Tang Tian swayed away from him, he hit Ganba steadily.

After seven ins and seven outs, the fierce resistance of "cousin" didn't help, Tang Tian still wanted whatever he wanted.

Paul hit Jokic again, but he still couldn't make a shot. His touch has dropped compared to the first quarter.

Looking back, Tang Tian continued to hit Cousins. This time, he dribbled the ball enough times. Cousins ​​was eager to prove that he had lost control of his center of gravity, and was thrown to the ground!

Tang Tian waited until Cousins ​​got up before making a move!

A wave of 4 to 0, the point difference has reached 14 points!

Cousins' eyes were red when he got up, and he noticed D'Antoni shaking his head on the sidelines.
