The Golden Invincible of Basketball

Davis adjusted his breathing and hit a penalty.

7 to 9.

After experiencing the opening loss, the Pelicans finally found the game status.

Parker broke the gyro layup under the basket and was missed by Davis. Whiteside protected the defensive rebound.

Ariza's three-pointer receiving the ball was not interfered by Leonard, and Gasol received Whiteside with a rebound.

After experiencing mutual offense and defense in the opening phase, the situation on the field began to fall into a stalemate.

The Spurs are strong this season, but the Pelicans can also rank second in the West by relying on their own strength.

As long as they play normally, they have the capital to play against the Spurs.

After the first quarter, the two sides tied at 23.

If the teams that played before were not enough to explain the problem, the Pelicans' performance in this quarter is impressive.

In the second quarter, the main players on both sides rested off the court.

The Spurs are led by Ginobili, plus Joseph, Bellinelli, Diaw and Baynes.

Jokic led the Pelicans, plus Cole, Gordon, Morrow and Aminu.

Up to the Spurs to attack first, Bellinelli missed the three-pointer.

Jokic protected a defensive rebound.

In the frontcourt, Jokic responded to the free throw line and passed to Gordon's layup.

"beep!"

At this time, a whistle came from the sidelines, and it turned out that the Spurs called a timeout!

All the teammates on the field stumbled.

Only two rounds in the second quarter, less than half a minute, the Spurs called a timeout? !!

Tang Tian was a bit ignorant sitting on the sidelines, but turned to see the unhappy victoria, and seemed to understand again.

The old man had done O'Neal in the first 6 seconds. There was nothing he couldn't do.

Because the tactics were just laid out during the inter-session break, Williams just reminded the players to pay more attention to defense.

Pause back, the Spurs' offense.

They suddenly stopped playing hammer tactics. Joseph directly called Baines' pick-and-roll, and then joked about Jokic.

Jokic was losing weight during this time, and was not good at controlling his body. When he was chasing the defense, he blocked shots on Joseph's hands.

Joseph got two free throws.

He made two free throws with interference and the Spurs tied the score again.

Back on the defensive end, the Spurs focused on the off-court cooperation of the Pelicans. Jokic's response did not come out. He turned to play Baynes.

Baines was a big man with a strong defense and prevented Jokic's attack.

The Spurs advanced to the frontcourt, Ginobili also pulled the Baines pick and roll, misaligned to continue Jokic.

His serpentine breakthrough successfully opened Jokic and scored at the rim.

Once fouled and once shaken, it was clear that Jokic was arranged by the Spurs.

When Jokic came to the Pelicans, Tang Tian was worried that he would be targeted because of defensive problems, so he started to lose weight early.

Now that the weight loss has not been completed, the Spurs were confronted in advance, and Vicky presented him with a "Rookie Wall" gift.

Cole's receiving layup was interfered by Embes, turning back to Dior's layup and creating a beater for Jokic.

Williams called Reggie Evans.

In this scene, Jokic was too obvious to be targeted by the Spurs, there should not be too many opportunities.

Although Vicki called a timeout after playing two rounds in the second quarter, looking back, the timing of this timeout was just right.

Jokic couldn't get on the court, the Pelicans' bench fire was a bit out of reach, and the Spurs continued with several waves of offense and defense to extend their lead to 8 points.

Williams called a timeout. After the timeout, he replaced the main one.

Tang Tian re-entered the field and hit a dry three, but Gasol immediately responded with a large two-pointer at the free throw line.

Davis's offensive slam succeeded, and Green turned in to take a three-pointer from Gasol's pass.

After a season of training last season, both Green and Leonard have grown to the strength of the 13-14 Spurs in history.

Coupled with Big Gasol, this year's Spurs are really strong.

At halftime, the Spurs led the Pelicans 53-41.

This is the most difficult half for the Pelicans since the start of the season.

During the intermission, both players returned to the locker room.

The Pelicans' locker room was a little dull.

Before, they had only lost to the Celtics, but they lost in the last quarter of the game, which is different from the situation under pressure.

This is also the characteristic of young teams, and their emotions are all written on their faces.

Tang Tian was not too surprised to see this reaction from his teammates.

Last season, the Pelicans just formed a team, and the whole team was in a state of enthusiasm. They didn't want to care about everything and just do it. If they lost, they won.

That's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

But after this season's strength comes up, everyone has expectations for the results, and their inner thoughts must be different.

This is a good thing, after all, it's impossible to win the championship by force alone.

It's just that the situation at hand is somewhat depressing.

"guys."

Tang Tian stood up at this time.

He spoke, and everyone in the locker room put his gaze on him.

He is now the team leader and the soul of the team.

"Did you know? When coach Williams said we were aiming for the championship last season, I supported him, but I can't imagine what we did when we won, because we were really far away from the championship at that time.

But when he said that again after the end of training camp this season, I already had the picture in my mind, the same picture as when I was in San Antonio, because this season, we really have that strength. "

After Tang Tian said these two words, the team members nodded and some laughed.

Obviously, Tang Tian's words resonated with them.

"But the road to winning is always difficult and bumpy."

When he said this, his words suddenly turned.

"Our game against the Spurs is not just the one in front of us, or we should not focus on the outcome of the game in front of us ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ he said a little more.

"We want to win, and we will definitely meet with the Spurs in the playoffs, whether in the semi-finals or the finals, we will definitely meet them.

At that time, we were going to play a series of seven games.

They are the strongest team this season, and Vicki is the most experienced and capable coach.

Believe me, we will definitely experience a more difficult situation than before.

We want to win them, one game, two games, one series. All we have to learn is how to play this kind of game.

We must have a firm heart, a good heart for every detail, a heart that never gives up, and do everything perfectly, so that we can defeat them.

They are not just referring to the Spurs, they may be other teams stronger than the Spurs.

Guys, this is the road to championships. "
