After the first quarter, the score on the field was 30 to 24, and the Warriors led. hps:.

Durant scored 14 points in a single quarter, against Tang Tian's 14 points in a single quarter.

Ariza is absent. Except for Tang Tian, ​​the only ones that can be used on the Pelicans' forward are Boyang and Stephenson.

But it can be seen in the game that one of them is slower and the other is not tall enough, which is completely incompatible with Durant.

Fortunately, new player Williams performed well and led the team to a 8-2 wave in the substitute connection, quickly tied the score.

Although I spent the night with my two women last night, this did not seem to affect his performance and was still plug-and-play.

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Cole replaced Durant in advance.

After Durant came on the court, he misplaced a match against Williams, and made a head-on strong attack, Stephenson played 2+1, and the situation changed again.

Stevens reacted quickly, and the situation on the field changed. He stood up and walked to the end of the bench, calling Siakam and Tang Tian together.

Ariza was absent, and Stevens was prepared for it and put Siakam on the activation list.

Now Boyan and Stephenson are useless. He can only boldly activate Siakam just like he used Brogdon.

Siakam did not disappoint him. He was the first defense after he came on the court and successfully used his wingspan to interfere with Durant's shooting and prevented a goal.

Barkley on the sidelines couldn't help but be amazed when he saw it, and even said what fans used to comment on social media.

The Pelicans' rookie really doesn't care about new things and just show!

But unfortunately, Barkley was slapped in the face again this time.

In the next two rounds, Durant swung past and played 2+1 again, which instantly broke Siakam, and the Warriors successfully widened the gap to double digits.

Brogden played continuously when he was able to play because of his age and his rich playing experience, which is also the characteristic of older rookies.

But Siakam is different. He is a potential stock that is completely different in experience, and he is even not on the same level as Durant in confrontation.

The ball in front can be understood as his newborn calf is lucky, or it can be understood as Durant underestimating the enemy.

The fact is that Ariza's absence highlights his importance. No one in the Pelicans can match Durant except Tang Tian.

Although Tang Tian scored consecutively to help the Pelicans catch the score, the Pelicans were quite passive if they continued to play at this pace.

Stevens called a timeout and he was preparing to double-team Durant.

"I'll do it."

Just like during the Christmas War, Tang Tian volunteered.

Stevens nodded for a moment.

The Warriors have splashes on the outside. Although they are in average recently, the Pelicans can double-team the Warriors can play the infinite pick-and-roll and empty cuts that they are best at, which is also the most comfortable way to play.

Once the splash is opened, the situation will be more unfavorable to the Pelicans than it is now.

It is the worst way to let Tang Tian defend Durant to consume his physical strength, and it is the worst way to double-team Durant. Stevens finally avoided the important and chose the worst way.

The three days after the soldier was separated, and it was two months before the Christmas battle. Durant regained his confidence in Tang Tian.

Unfortunately, Tang Tian’s defense was really too restrained by him. He failed to score in two singles.

The Pelicans also took advantage of the situation to launch a continuous counterattack, bringing the gap back to single digits.

The two teams are like playing chess. As the troops are constantly placing and adjusting the formation, the score difference changes back and forth, and the balance of victory also tilts back and forth.

This time the balance began to tilt slowly towards the Pelicans.

Seeing that the score difference was about to be smoothed out again, Curry stood up from the Warriors.

After the judgment scale changed, Curry's performance was once very difficult, which was also caused by his playing style.

The strength of the pick-and-roll is used to fight against the body before taking action, which is a very restraining approach for pitchers.

But Curry is obviously not an ordinary pitcher, or he is not just a pitcher, he is a superstar.

Superstars have strong self-adjustment ability.

Just like many people say whether O'Neal and Jordan will not be able to play in the small ball era, it is a question of no suspense.

Jordan can become a pitcher of the same level as Curry through practice, while O'Neal will directly hit the ball era...

Curry is the representative of the small ball era, but in fact, the small ball era was officially promoted by him and the Warriors.

He began to increase his running distance, play like Ray Allen, and after receiving the ball, he broke through the basket and caused more damage.

Whether it was throwing, layup or passing, Curry used his continuous performance to prove that he could score even without shooting three-pointers.

The change in the penalty scale caused Curry's three-point threat to drop, but in the same way, he also returned the cylinder that originally belonged to him.

In fact, Curry is the one who has been most affected by the penalty standards, but he is also the one who adjusts the fastest.

He had completely adjusted himself long before the All-Star Game, pushing Paul out of the All-Star Game.

With Curry's performance, the Warriors regained the initiative on the field.

Curry opened and compressed the Pelicans defense, and Thompson also drove.

The Warriors' Tsunami Brothers finally played in the game against the Pelicans.

But even so, the difference between the two sides has been fluctuating in single digits.

Because there is Tang Tian on the Pelicans, he takes the offense and defense, gritting his teeth and leading the team to a stalemate with the Warriors.

After the third quarter, the score on the court was 80-87, and the Pelicans were only 7 points behind.

However, this stalemate changed in the second half of the fourth quarter.

The main reason why the change happened was Tang Tian.

His physical strength is really not enough.

Although Durant is restricted by him, he is Durant after all, the small forward with the strongest offensive firepower in the league.

Not to mention that Tang Tian also has to shoulder the team's offense.

His physical fitness is really not enough.

Although he gritted his teeth and threw key balls in the confrontation, the score still could not be approached.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Pelicans 117-107 and won the second confrontation of the Pelicans.

Tang Tian scored a game-high 44 points, Davis also scored 20 points, and new player Williams also scored the most 13 points on the bench.

The Pelicans scored 107 points, but their problem was that they failed to limit the Tsunami Brothers.

Durant scored 33 points, Curry scored 32 points, Thompson scored 23 points, and the three of them scored 88 points.

The impact of Ariza's absence is obvious, but for Tang Tian, ​​his problem is still his physical fitness.

If he had a legend, he could have both offense and defense throughout the game, and at least he could limit one of Curry and Durant to death.

The loss made the Pelicans players and fans not happy, but for Tang Tian, ​​he received the best news after the game.

Nike's dividends for the new year are about to come out.

Considering the explosive popularity he showed during the All-Star vote this year, that would be a lot of money.
