The first thousand two hundred and ninety chapters runaway Davis
Having been troubled by injuries before, Davis and Green were absent from the bench and the other was on the bench. Now they are together!
The Bucks were completely abused when the two of them had not played before. Now the Pelicans lineup has given them deep despair before it even started!
Of course, this is not the most desperate.
The most desperate thing is that at the end of the Pelicans' opening ceremony, Tang Tian touched the Pelicans' players for a while, just like the previous two games!
Faith is established after success after success.
Fear also arises after repeated experiences!
No one knows whether this unprecedented ceremony is useful.
But the current situation is that the Pelicans find it useful, and the Bucks also find it useful as their opponents!
The game is about to begin, and the coaches on both sides are making the final tactical arrangements before the game.
After summoning the players together, Budenholzer threw the tactical board directly onto the bench, and then pulled the players to say in his most emotional tone.
"They are putting smoke bombs, and they want to break down our psychological defense in this way, and we must maintain confidence."
Although this sentence is a bit cowardly, it is what the Bucks need most now.
Their originally desperate mood eased a lot.
What Budenholzer said makes sense. It is rumored that Davis will return for three days, and Green's injury has not made any progress.
It's really a coincidence that the two of them are at the same time now.
They would rather believe the truth is what Budenholzer said, and it was just the Pelicans trying to break their psychological defense.
A short whistle sounded on the sidelines, and the game began soon, and both sides took the stage one after another.
Tang Tian threw magnesium powder to ignite the fans' emotions. Amid the cheers of the fans, the game was about to break out.
The Pelicans jumping ball tonight changed from Gasol to Davis.
Coincidentally, the Bucks also changed from Horford to Antetokounmpo.
It can be seen that the two teams are competing at the beginning tonight.
In the end, Antetokounmpo's jump and wingspan were even better, giving the Bucks the opportunity to jump first to attack.
Budenholzer let out a long sigh when he saw this.
He didn't know if Davis' injury was really good, but Antetokounmpo's jump won, which would help the Bucks improve morale.
Irving advanced to the frontcourt and reached out to signal Horford to mention the pick-and-roll at the high position.
The Bucks' offensive strategy in this game looks the same as in the previous game, with Irving and Hayward as the main attack points.
Irving's direction change was very beautiful, and he passed Gasol and rushed to the basket.
After taking a look at Davis' defense against Antetokounmpo, Irving made a layup after jumping up.
But just before the ball hit the basket, a long arm covered the ball and slapped it.
"Bang!"
A big nail board hat!
Davis!
Irving's eyes were full of incredible.
Because he observed Davis' position before making a layup!
Davis also took the opportunity to win the defensive rebound, turned around and handed it to Tang Tian, and he was quick to get off.
Tang Tian advanced to the frontcourt and saw Redick and Hayward both following him, passing the ball to the middle.
Davis has already arrived, and after getting the ball, he directly scored with one hand and scored a point!
The cheers exploded instantly.
From blocking to a quick dunk, Davis contributed five goals in his first game after his comeback!
The slow release of offense and defense just now was also given on the scene.
Davis was indeed watching Antetokounmpo, but he came to defend when Irving jumped.
His height, wingspan, bounce, and even reaction speed are stronger than Siakam before!
With his physical talent, he took the lead and blocked the ball!
And after the blocking, he also showed a big elite level speed, running faster than the small forward, and then received the ball and completed a dunk.
The Bucks' bench looked at each other in a flash.
Budenholzer tried to convince them that Davis and Green were just smoke bombs, but judging from the opening round, this was not the case!
The Bucks' offense, Hayward and Horford played pick-and-roll, and he had a better vision than Irving. After breaking through to the inside, he passed the ball to Antetokounmpo.
However, Davis' reaction speed was really fast. He returned to the right place when Hayward passed the ball.
Antetokounmpo can only play one-on-one single after receiving the ball.
Continuous hard chiseling on the back, plus a strong layup when turning around.
Davis resisted it all, Antetokounmpo did not get a good chance to make a phone call, so he was a little reluctant to vote.
It can be seen that after the first two games, his confidence suffered a considerable blow.
But that's just barely.
"Bang!"
Davis soared into the air like a monkey who rushed to the sky, slapped Antetokounmpo's move out of the field!
Blasted.
The scene exploded.
Davis, I took Antetokounmpo out!
Antetokounmpo is a candidate for MVP this season. Davis is obviously not strong enough, and he has just returned from injury.
But just now, Davis gave Antetokounmpo a strong hat!
Momentum, the Pelicans' momentum reached a peak in an instant.
This block really boosts morale!
Tang Tian also gave Davis a thumbs up at this time.
It has to be said that in addition to ability, the enthusiasm and spiritual attributes of basketball are also very important.
Antetokounmpo has experienced the big defeats in the first two games, especially since the last game was not the team's main attack point, and his confidence was severely frustrated.
On the other hand, Davis wanted to make a comeback before the finals began, and he had reached the level of desire.
But Stevens pressed him for a few days, and he was already quenching his thirst.
This can finally be played. Whether it is confidence or enthusiasm, he is the peak of his personal life.
In other words, Antetokounmpo is only 80% of its strength now, while Davis has 120%!
The Bucks served the sideline ball, Irving received the ball and rushed to the basket, and then saw Davis, who was assisting in defense, dodging instinctively.
He avoided the block, but lost his shooting angle.
The basketball hit the box and Davis closed another defensive rebound!
In the frontcourt position of the Pelicans, Tang Tian and Davis played pick-and-roll, and then took the ball back after disassembling.
Davis received the ball from outside the three-point line, thought nothing, and just raised his hand and threw it away!
This is true confidence.
"Swish!"
Murphy's Law, it really goes in!
5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 blocks!
Davis' personal data exploded in less than two minutes after the game started.
As expected, the man who has been holding it in for a long time has erupted quite terrifying energy!
Irving continued to play singles in the frontcourt, but Tang Tian assisted in defense, and his double-team shot failed to hit.
Gasol protects the defensive rebound.
The Pelicans advance to the frontcourt and then play.
"Come on! Pelicans!"
The fans at the scene were a little excited and cheered for the Pelicans in unison.
Tang Tian and Davis play pick-and-roll again, and he knows that Davis is in good condition, so he specifically looks for him.
Davis catches the ball and shoots.
He had just scored a goal ahead, and Hayward, who had switched to defend, saved very fiercely.
However, Davis made a fake shot, then strode to the meteor and killed the inside.
Antetokounmpo has been pulled down by Tang Tian, and Gasol has also pulled Horfordra out of the basket. After Davis drifted past Hayward, he was already in front of him.
He rushed to the inside and jumped up, smashing the ball into the basket with both hands!
"Bang!"
A powerful slam dunk ignited the New Orleans Arena again.
Barkley said before that he could not give Antetokounmpo a one-on-one chance, because he would be a dunk when he rushed.
Antetokounmpo proved that the fact was not the case, because it could also be an offensive foul.
But Davis proved what Barkley said this round, giving him a one-on-one chance, and what he gave you back was a dunk!
And it was a powerful dunk from both hands!
Chapter completed!
