"If the opponent uses Tim Hardaway to defend, we must expand the space on the court as much as possible and play a strong advantage of one-on-one..."

In fact, it is not just the Pelicans players, but even head coach Williams is creating more opportunities for Tang Tian.

This game is related to the Pelicans' face.

The commentary of this game is from ESPN's Mike Bryn and Knicks legend, "Central Investment King" Alan Houston.

It is interesting to study the NBA's commentary arrangement in depth.

For example, in this saliva game, ESPN brought the Knicks legend as a commentary guest.

"Alan, do you think Hardaway can do what he said before the game?"

Before the game started, Brin and Houston warmed up on the sidelines.

"Yes, he will do it. I know that little guy. He is in good health and has a high spirit."

Houston is not a professional commentator, so he spoke very absolutely now.

"I'll look forward to that scene."

Brin said with a happy look on his face.

Compared to the commentary with Miller's old fried dough stick, he is obviously much easier now.

When you put down a trap, dig a hole, Houston will jump and get accurate.

The final tactics before the game were arranged, and the starting players of both sides appeared one after another.

The Pelicans have regular lineups, including Holiday in the outside, Tang Tian, ​​Amino and Davis, and center Reggie Evans.

On the Knicks, Anthony sat on the sidelines in a suit and tie.

On the outside are Raymond Filton and Tim Hardaway Jr., on the front are Champet and Bagnani, and center Tyson Chandler.

Amid the cheers of home fans, Davis' N+N time was the opportunity for the Pelicans to jump first to attack.

Holiday dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. After the other players pulled it away, he gave the ball to Tang Tian and pulled Felton away himself.

Tang Tian received the ball, and the person who guarded him was indeed Hardaway.

There were already a burst of cheers on the sidelines. They were the ones who wanted to watch Tang Tian beat Hardaway the most.

"To the left? Or to the right? I know you will choose to pull it out, so you will just float and beat it."

Before Tang Tian started attacking, Hardaway started talking about trash.

Durant said that Tang Tian is prone to being angry, so he angered Tang Tian at the beginning.

Tang Tian looked at Hardaway with caring care. This guy's brain is better than Whiteside, oh no, than Cousins?

He lowered his body to dribble, and changed direction to the left.

Hardaway is 1.98 meters tall, not much shorter than Tang Tian. Moreover, his arm-span is excellent and his defensive ability is still very good.

The first time he followed Tang Tian.

But Tang Tian suddenly went to the right again and shook him away.

Hardaway is in good health, but as a rookie, he is obviously too close to him and there is no time to adjust his defensive focus.

Tang Tian shook away Hardaway and directly chose to pull it out.

He was hardly disturbed by this ball.

"Swish!"

Basketball enters the net with a sound.

Cheers burst into tears at the scene.

The Pelicans' bench also shouted excitedly.

Hadawei swore to defend Tang Tian, ​​but was shaken clean in the first round of the game?

The Knicks' offense, Felton and Bagnani played pick-and-roll, and returned the ball and gave Bagnani a layup.

Davis, who was on the weak side, came to assist in the defense and successfully interfered, and Evans protected the defensive rebound.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, and Holiday gave the ball to Tang Tian as soon as possible.

Hardaway learned from the last time that the ball was not as tight as it was.

After Tang Tianyun took two moves, he saw that Hardaway was at a distance from him and directly started to vote.

The aggressive defenses of Tony Allen and Butler are still very effective for him now, but Hardaway is obviously far behind.

Hardaway didn't expect that Tang Tian would suddenly pull out, and it was obviously a bit too late to save him.

"Swish!"

Tang Tian's second move was still in.

Didn’t Hardaway say he could only do it?

But you have to be able to defend against it!

"He must play more aggressively in the next defensive round so that he can defend against Tang's attack."

Houston gave Hardaway a sincere advice at the commentary seat.

"Yes, he will be able to defend himself in the next round." Bryn echoed.

He has commented on many games for the Pelicans or Tang Tian.

He knew very well that Hardaway could not defend against Tang Tian no matter what, and he also knew why ESPN arranged for Houston to be his partner.

Don’t the audience like to watch such commentary being slapped in the face?

Then he caters to the audience and makes the slap in the face more thoroughly.

Felton missed the three-pointer from the outside, and Evans grabbed Chandler and protected the defensive rebounds again.

The Pelicans advanced to the frontcourt, but Tang Tian still played singles with the ball.

The Knicks didn't have double-teams.

Without doubt, since Woodson chose to trust Hardaway, he would give him enough trust.

At this time, Hardaway regained his close-fits-all defense. He could see that Tang Tian was stimulated by his trash words, and he deliberately used his blow to attack.

So, he has a high possibility of controlling the center of gravity with close control.

Tang Tian changed direction to the left.

Hardaway followed him to the left, but this time he didn't fully shift his center of gravity and was ready to go to the right at any time.

"Bang!"

At this moment, Tang Tian suddenly accelerated directly, and after a physical confrontation with him, he completely squeezed him past!

Tang Tian’s offensive methods are relatively single, but it is difficult to defend against several technologies when combined!

Hardaway was completely lost in the center of gravity when he was hit. Turning around, Tang Tian turned around and rushed to the basket.

Evans was pressing Chandler tightly at the basket at this time.

Bagnani moved slowly and had no time to defend.

Tang Tian's eyes were flat.

He jumped to the basket and pulled the ball high with his right hand.

The whole person's head is flush with the basket.

"Bang!"

A single-arm buckle with a powerful force!

The cheers at the scene exploded instantly.

Tang Tian scored 6 points in a row at the beginning and also contributed a wonderful dunk!

More importantly, the defenders of Hardaway were all on these three rounds.

Hardaway said he would defend Tang Tian?

To be nice, those words are said to be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and to be nice, they are said to be unaware of the great world!

Hardaway gasped for two breaths. He had never played against Tang Tian before, and only then did he realize that feeling of powerlessness when he played against him.

He felt like he was cheated by Durant.

It is of course a good thing to step on Tang Tian to the throne, but the problem is that the one standing in front of him now is Mount Everest. Not to mention stepping on him, he can't even see the top!

"Bang!"

Durant threw the cigar in his hand to the table.

This Hardaway is really a waste. He doesn't need to attack but only defend, and is so clean that Tang Tian exploded.

It seems that he really overestimated Hardaway.

But soon, he picked up a new cigar and lit it.
