Chapter 591 No God is needed this time!(1/2)
Tang Tian’s chance to increase punishment.
Duncan turned to look at Tang Tian, then shook his head with a smile.
Tang Tian was stunned for a moment.
This old guy is unscrupulous now! Are you not afraid of the referee bragging about him?
"Bang!"
Perhaps because of Duncan's interference, Tang Tian's extra punishment was defeated.
Duncan protects the defensive rebounds.
“.go!”
The situation was unfavorable, and the fans on the scene shouted loudly for the Spurs.
But the Pelicans are really fighting, and they become more and more excited as they play, so they defended the Spurs' offense.
Davis finally protected the defensive rebound, and the Pelicans played fast break.
Tang Tian received the ball in the midfield and rushed to the frontcourt, and then fought against Green and sent the ball into the basket.
He didn't seize the opportunity before, and this time he finally helped the Pelicans narrow the gap to single digits!
Popovich reached out and called for a pause.
The Pelicans players left the field and were cheered by the players off the field.
Although the score is still behind, this game is really exciting.
And they really felt what Tang Tian said in midfield, which was completely different from the brainless feeling of last season.
"Keep on, we have a chance!"
Although Williams didn't know what was going on in the midfield, he was also excited to see this change in the team.
After the timeout, the Spurs played the Hammer tactic, and Parker scored a throw when he broke through.
Looking back, they also successfully defended against a wave of positional battles by the Pelicans.
This offense and defense temporarily stabilized the situation on the field, and Popovich's tactical deployment during the timeout was still very good.
But in the next round, Ariza stole Parker's pass to Leonard.
The Pelicans played fast break, and Holiday received Tang Tian's pass and made a layup, which also caused Green's foul to pull the man, and got a 2+1 chance to get a free throw.
After a steady increase in free throws, the Pelicans narrowed the gap to 7 points.
Although the Pelicans failed to play a continuous offensive climax, the Spurs were always able to score key goals while the Pelicans were chasing points.
But the Pelicans' momentum of chasing points is very obvious!
After this quarter, they caught the score to 70-71!
Their fight made Popovich look at him with admiration.
In the fourth quarter, Jokic made a layup with Gordon in seconds. They were like crossing the Himalayas. After going through thousands of dangers, they finally turned over!
But at this moment, the Spurs grabbed Jokic's weakness on the defensive end and fought in two consecutive attacks, pulling the gap back again.
Williams didn't play Evans this time and directly replaced Whiteside and Ariza in advance.
In the fourth quarter, it was the decisive moment, and he didn't have much need to retain the players' physical strength.
Moreover, the Pelicans' victory in youth is capital.
This substitution was immediately effective, and the Pelicans quickly stabilized the situation on the court.
The two sides have been in a stalemate in this quarter. The Spurs have shown their strength as the No. 1 in the Western Conference and did not allow the Pelicans to establish an advantage.
At the last minute of the game, the Spurs tied at 91 with the Pelicans!
After a long 47-minute race, the two teams once again stood on the same starting line.
Pelicans' offensive opportunity.
The other Pelicans players sank to the bottom line, and they were waiting to watch Tang Tian’s performance at the critical moment.
Green looked a little nervous. He still didn't have much confidence in his key goal.
Tang Tian accelerated his direction and Green tried hard to retreat.
And Leonard, who was on the weak side, came to defend immediately.
Tang Tian did not pass the ball, so he could only shoot such a key ball by himself.
Seizing the gap between the two of them in double-team defense, Tang Tiangan pulled out his hand.
The fans on the scene were cheering.
"Bang!"
The ball shot slightly off and popped out!
Tang Tian’s key goal was not scored!
Gasol, the Grandmas stuck Whiteside, and Duncan struggled to protect the defensive rebound.
Cheers were everywhere at the scene.
Sure enough, God did not stand behind Tang Tian and the Pelicans this time.
Opportunity, come to the Spurs.
The last 40 seconds left in the game.
The Spurs played very patiently, and Leonard seized the perfect opportunity with the final cut and took a steadily shot at the basket.
This is a sure chance.
But at this moment, Whiteside rushed over and slapped Leonard's move.
"Bang!"
He gave Leonard a nail-board hat directly!
And after blocking, he also grabbed the defensive rebound!
He and Davis did not perform well in the first half, but they tried to catch up with points in the second half and felt like they were sublimated.
He didn't feel tired until the last moment of the fourth quarter!
Holiday asked Whiteside for the ball, and the Pelicans directly fought back.
Tang Tian had already walked forward at this time, and he received a long pass from Holiday to run to the frontcourt.
Green followed Tang Tian tightly at this time.
The two went from midfield to the frontcourt free throw line.
After breaking into the free throw line, Tang Tian jumped up, and this time he put all his strength into it.
Green jumped up as well.
The two had physical confrontation in the air.
Tang Tian accelerated from the midfield to the frontcourt with the ball. From a mathematical perspective, his impulse brought great momentum.
The kinetic energy that Green can exert when he jumps to interfere is relatively limited.
In addition, Tang Tian has the ability to bombard the divine turtle and the weight difference between the two, the result of the two fighting in the air was that Green was pushed away.
And this time, Tang Tian did not choose to make a layup like before the fast break, because the ball ahead was not shot, so this ball must be made!
"Bang!"
With the wide eyes of the fans at the scene, Tang Tian jumped up and smashed the ball into the basket through Green.
Dunks across the board!
Tang Tian did not hold back on his former teammate Green!
You are a good person!
In the last 35 seconds, the Pelicans got a key 2-point advantage!
The Spurs called a timeout.
The Pelicans' bench was in full swing.
This time God did not stand behind the Pelicans and Tang Tian, but Tang Tian used an impossible failure to score the most critical 2 points for the Pelicans!
Now, as long as you defend the Spurs' last attack, the victory belongs to the Pelicans!
After the timeout, Parker dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and the Spurs' tactical cooperation in the frontcourt, they obviously wanted to create a misalignment opportunity for Leonard.
But the Pelicans did almost perfectly around the pick-and-roll, and they failed to succeed even after half of the offensive time.
Parker finally signaled his teammates to pull away and knocked the ball directly to Leonard, asking him to play Ariza in the end.
Popovich was really a little stubborn and handed over the most critical attack to the young Leonard.
All other Spurs players were pulled apart, and Leonard played Ariza behind his back, using his physical strength to fight to the low post.
