The invincible kryptonite of basketball

……

The big defeat in the last game made the Spurs fans extremely desperate, but after this half, they can clearly feel that their confidence has returned.

The Pelicans locker room.

Stevens didn't say too many words of encouragement. Although they were 11 points behind, the team's overall morale was still high.

They knew that the lag in the first half was related to Leonard's brave performance.

Leonard is very strong, but he is not Tang Tian after all, so it is difficult to maintain that kind of performance throughout the game.

Stevens is doing more tactical arrangements.

Regardless of whether Leonard can maintain that state in the second half, the Pelicans will not use Green to defend him alone in the second half.

Back from the halftime break, the game between the two teams continued.

The Spurs took the lead and Leonard broke through with the ball in the frontcourt.

At this moment, the Pelicans' defensive adjustment came.

Brogdon ignored White and double-teamed Leonard.

And Davis at the basket is always ready to help defend.

Stevens is focusing on taking care of Leonard.

Leonard reacted quickly and passed the ball to White immediately.

However, the quality of his passing was mediocre. White had to bend down to get the ball. When he stood up again, Tang Tian had already defended him.

The ball finally fell into Aldridge's hands, and he turned over against Davis' defense and missed a jumper.

The Pelicans successfully defended the possession.

Tang Tian received the ball to the half court, he used Davis' pick-and-roll to go to the right, and George and Aldridge double-teamed the defense.

Moreover, Bertans helped defend Davis, and the Spurs' defense rotation also did a good job.

Tang Tian didn't choose to pass the ball. After he dribbled to the right of the three-second zone, he turned to the baseline and leaned back.

George jumped up and interfered vigorously.

"Shh!"

But his interference didn't work, Tang Tian still threw the ball in!

The Pelicans took the lead in the second half!

Leonard's breakthrough with the ball in the frontcourt continued to be double-teamed by Brogdon. He distributed the ball faster this time, and White who received the ball was an opportunity.

"Dangdang!"

However, White failed to seize the opportunity and hit a three-pointer.

White's breakthrough is very good, but his season three-point shooting percentage is only 33%, which is about the same as Baynes, and it is not stable.

Davis grabbed the defensive rebound and gave it directly to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian speeded up, smashed the ball into the basket against White's defense, and caused White's defensive foul.

2+1!

His extra penalty was also hit steadily!

59 is better than 65!

After returning from the second half, Tang Tian scored 4 points in a row. After only scoring 25 points in the first half, he was obviously about to start exerting himself when the team fell behind.

Leonard missed a double-team shot in the frontcourt.

One Green can't stop Leonard, but with the addition of Brogdon, Leonard's efficiency has obviously dropped.

Siakam rushed to grab the defensive rebound, turned around and gave Tang Tian the same.

Tang Tian suddenly stopped outside the three-point line during a fast break, and George couldn't brake in time. When he stopped, Tang Tian had already shot a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, Tang Tian chased back with three points!

He scored 8 points in a row, and the point difference was narrowed to 3 points!

The scene was restless.

But this is not the end.

George missed a three-pointer from the outside. Tang Tian took the defensive rebound by himself, advanced the ball to the frontcourt, and then threw a super long throw one meter away from the three-point line!

He felt that the touch was online, and he directly entered the personal mode!

"Shh!"

There was a crisp sound, like a basin of cold water being poured directly on the heads of the Spurs fans at the scene.

In just 3 minutes, Tang Tian scored 11 consecutive points, directly tying the score!

Popovich was forced to call a timeout.

The fans on the hotline blew up again.

They also said that Leonard was a nuclear weapon before, but now it seems that Tang Tiancai is a nuclear weapon with real lethality!

The first thousand and 260 nine chapters of the magical lore ball

After returning from the timeout, Popovich made another change, replacing Bertans with Forbes, and returned to the lineup of one big and four small.

But this change made George and Leonard swing to the third and fourth positions, weakening the defense against Tang Tian.

It was an obvious signal that Tang Tian couldn't be defended no matter how much he defended, so he simply couldn't defend against it and played counterattack directly.

No matter how strong Tang Tian was, he could only make one shot in an attack.

With the state of the Spurs tonight, it is not necessarily impossible to play against each other.

Popovich's strategy was quickly fulfilled. The Spurs performed hotly on the offensive end tonight, and they played against the Pelicans again in the next half quarter.

At the end of the three quarters, the score on the court was 90-94.

Although driven by Tang Tian's 27 points in a single quarter, the Pelicans scored 40 points in a single quarter, but the Spurs were only 4 points behind in the end.

The outcome is still full of suspense.

In the critical fourth quarter, amidst the cheers of the home fans, the Spurs once again climaxed and established a lead under the leadership of George.

The situation in the third quarter was repeated again in the final quarter, and the scores of the two teams remained deadlocked until the end of the game.

Although the Pelicans are in the same state as the previous game tonight, the Spurs did play well tonight.

Especially Leonard, he has already broken his previous record of 43 points in a single game in the playoffs, and raised the record to 50 points.

On the other hand, Tang Tian also scored a new season high of 60 points in the playoffs.

On both sides, this is a duel between gods and gods.

30 seconds before the end, Leonard made a difficult layup and scored his 52nd point, which also helped the Spurs tie the score at 125.

Stevens called a timeout.

The fans felt like they were not breathing.

This game was really soul-stirring, and the best game of this year has been lost.

Back from the timeout, Brogdon held the ball from the outside for about 10 seconds, and Tang Tian ran out to catch the ball, and then accelerated to break through.

The Spurs surrounded White, George and Leonard.

Tang Tian didn't choose to pass the ball. He broke through from the right and accelerated, creating a bit of attack space for himself, before jumping up to the baseline and turning backwards.

Both George and Leonard flew over, their long arms interlaced.

This ball is tough.

Tang Tian also leaned back a lot.

After the ball was shot, it crossed the fingertips of George and Leonard, in the unwilling eyes of the fans.

"Shh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

The pose is picturesque!

127 is better than 125!

Tang Tian scored a quasi-lore!

Popovich reached out and called a timeout.

There are only 9 seconds to the end of the game. For the Spurs, they must score in the next round.

It's either a kill or overtime.

It depends on how Popovich chooses.

After the timeout, the Spurs made another substitution adjustment, and Popovich brought Baynes up.

George sent the ball out of bounds in the front court, and Leonard ran out to catch the ball.

In the end, Popovich didn't engage in any tricks, but just handed the ball to Leonard, who was in the best form tonight.

But in the next second, the scene became restless.

Because the Pelicans obviously also have defensive targets, Tang Tian is now defending Leonard!

Leonard did not choose to pass the ball, and took the ball to attack directly.

The two confronted from the three-point line to the free throw line. Leonard's physique was more dominant, but Tang Tian's defensive skills and abilities were top-notch, and it was difficult for him to go further.

With only 4 seconds left in the blink of an eye, Leonard chose to make an emergency stop ahead of time.

This emergency stop created space for him to shoot, but Tang Tianxia rushed forward in a second and interfered.

Leonard shot against the defense.

The fans at the scene suffocated and all looked at the ball in the air.

The ball passed Tang Tian's fingertips, but it seemed a bit short.

Obviously, Tang Tian put too much defensive pressure on him, and Leonard couldn't make a comfortable shot.

"Dangdang!"

The ball hit the front of the basket and popped out!

Leonard's lore shot failed!

The eyes of the fans at the scene were full of despair.

Spurs, eliminated!

But at this moment, Baynes used his height advantage to grab an offensive rebound, and then threw it to George on the outside!

Popovich's final substitution came on!

2 seconds left.

George took the ball and saw Green coming to help defend him, he hesitated for a while and didn't make a shot, and then threw it to Leonard who ran to the three-point line again.

Leonard received a hot iron pan, and he didn't have time to adjust and shot directly.

As soon as the ball was shot, the red light on the sidelines came on.

This time it wasn't just breathing, the fans felt like their hearts were about to stop.

This match was too thrilling.

"Dangdang!"

The ball bounced off the back edge of the rim.

Obviously, the hasty shot at the last moment did not give Leonard much room for adjustment.
