Chapter 469 Chapter 489+ Chapter 10 The Battle for the Scoring King (2 in 1 Chapter)

Davis jumped over Ibaka and gave the Pelicans the first offensive opportunity.

Tang Tian went to the frontcourt to receive Holiday's pass, and the Pelicans followed suit and started running tactics.

As the season progressed, the Pelicans' style of play has gradually taken shape.

Aminu and Holiday opened the game in 3D, Tang Tian held the ball, Davis was ready to pick and roll at any time, and Akinsa was ready to grab the rebound at the basket.

This is a style of play that doesn't have too many complicated tactics, but can maximize Tang Tian's personal ability.

Tang Tian didn't call the pick-and-roll at the beginning of the game. After signaling Davis to pull away, he lowered himself to dribble.

Sefolosha was the best defensive player in this Thunder team. He chose to defend closely, forcing Tang Tian to go left and break through.

Brooks' offensive tactics are two-axes, Durant singles and Westbrook singles, but his understanding of defense is still good.

The Thunder's defensive strategy on the field is to drive Tang Tian to the basket as much as possible, and make full use of Ibaka's ability to help defend and block shots at the basket.

Tang Tianbian pushed back past Sefolosha and broke through.

Ajinsa blocked Perkins, but just when Tang Tian was about to make a layup, Ibaka quickly came to help defend.

He is the player with the most blocked shots in the league. As long as Tang Tian makes a shot, he can directly block the shot!

However, Tang Tian didn't make a shot. Instead, he looked back at the moon and passed the ball to Davis at the free throw line.

Being a coach, and a coach at the godfather level, the biggest advantage is the understanding of tactics.

He could see Brooks' arrangement at a glance, and he had already guessed that Ibaka would help defend him.

In the past, he might try to fight Ibaka before shooting, or give up the layup and reorganize the offense.

But it's different now. Davis has developed a certain shooting ability, and his position at the free throw line is threatening.

Forward anticipation, coupled with precise passing, Davis received the ball is a completely open opportunity.

He shot directly.

The jumping posture and the hand shape are a big Durant.

Seeing the high shot point, the assisting defenders didn't even have the desire to try to interfere.

"boom!"

Davis' shot bounced off the backboard and into the net.

The Pelicans turned their backs and took the lead!

When Davis retreated, he took the initiative to find Tang Tian and give him a high five.

Although he didn't want Tang Tian to touch his head since Gordon persuaded him last time, he still wanted to get close unconsciously.

Then change to high fives!

If you clap at most, your hands will hurt a little, but your hair will not fall out.

Moreover, Tang Tian's pass was really beautiful, and the chances of him getting a shot were better than any other time.

In the Thunder's offense, Durant played Aminu with the ball in the high post.

Williams' arrangement was to reduce Tang Tian's stamina and helpless defense, and he did not arrange double-teams at the beginning.

Durant's turnaround jumper after singles Aminu.

"boom!"

His first shot missed.

He entered the state of death before the start of the game, but I don't know if it was because his body was too tight, and the hand feeling didn't look good.

Davis retracted to the basket to protect the rebound.

The Pelicans switched offense and defense, and Tang Tian and Holiday's double-lane was almost two-on-one.

With a stable dribble, Tang Tian can also dribble for a fast break, and the Pelicans' push and counterattack speed is significantly faster.

Sefolosha was a little overwhelmed.

After reaching the basket, Holiday knocked the ball back to Tang Tian, ​​and by the way also pushed Sefolosha out of the baseline.

When Tang Tian received the ball, his eyes were wide open. He jumped directly inside the free throw line, gliding and dunking with one hand.

"Boom!"

There was a muffled sound as the basketball hit the hoop.

The new dunk king is so beautiful!

There was a commotion on the sidelines.

4 to 0.

The Pelicans gave the Thunder a blow at the beginning!

And it can be seen that their morale is high, all of them seem to have been beaten with chicken blood.

Durant received the ball in the frontcourt and continued to play Aminu, who defended with all his strength.

This time Durant chose a turnaround jumper after a back hit.

"boom!"

Still not in!

This is the limitation of the shooting style of play. Even if Durant is a historical-level shooter, he can't make a shot if he doesn't feel good.

Tang Tian also had this kind of game, when he played against the Grizzlies, he also couldn't make consecutive shots.

Ibaka flew to grab the offensive rebound and shot from close range.

"boom!"

But as soon as the ball left his hand, Davis gave him a pegboard hat from behind.

Compared with blocking shots, Davis is completely worthy of Ibaka!

Davis used his super long wingspan to get the rebound, and the Pelicans pushed for a fast break.

Tang Tian reciprocated this time, passing the pass to Holiday from the midfielder, and the latter scored with a flying layup.

6 to 0!

The Pelicans started like a rainbow!

Brooks lost his gentle appearance on the sidelines at this time, shouting at the Thunder players.

The Thunder is a team that is very good at transitioning from offense to defense, but now they are beaten into two defensive counterattacks by the Pelicans!

You don't even want to win, do you? !

Durant's third offense chose a giant loop layup that burst into the basket.

Davis' pursuit was interfered, but his shot still didn't go in!

He was too excited tonight, and his hands were obviously a little tight!

Akinsa protects the defensive rebound.

The Thunder retreated in time this time and did not give the Pelicans a chance to switch.

Tang Tian held the ball again in the frontcourt, using the same tactic as in the opening game, except this time he called Davis' pick-and-roll.

Durant took the initiative to help defend at this time.

Tang Tian flicked the ball to Aminu.

Aminu missed a three-pointer and the rebound was accepted by Perkins.

Although he has practiced a lot of three-pointers, his three-pointers are still two stops behind Morrow's stability.

The Thunder attacked the frontcourt again, Westbrook and Perkins played a pick-and-roll, and after breaking the ball, they rushed to the basket.

Knowing that Perkins had no shooting ability, the Pelicans directly double-teamed the defense.

Westbrook's passing ability is not bad, but his vision is very narrow. At this time, he directly faced Akinsa in front of him and Holiday behind him and forced a dunk.

"beep!"

The referee blew his whistle to signal Akinsa's defensive foul.

"Boom!"

After Westbrook was fouled, his castration continued unabated, and after the confrontation, he smashed Akinsa's dunk in the air!

A 2+1!

After the goal, Westbrook raised his head and roared excitedly.

There were also cheers everywhere.

Simple, brutal, passionate.

Westbrook's style of play is not very efficient, but it is really explosive.

Tang Tian looked a little excited at this moment.

The next step of the explosive kit is the turtle bombing, and he also wants to experience this kind of violent frame abuse.

Westbrook's penalty was missed, and Davis received another defensive rebound.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, and Tang Tian used Davis' pick-and-roll breakthrough in the frontcourt.

Durant helped defend again.

This time Ibaka's switch was a bit slow, Tang Tian directly accelerated to fight Durant to the basket.

Durant blocked the shot with his long arm, but he obviously didn't fight enough.

Tang Tian confronted him in the air before making a move.

"beep!"

The referee whistled for Durant's thugs.

Tang Tian's shooting posture did not change after the confrontation, and he still sent the ball into the basket!

He returned Westbrook a 2+1, and it was still Durant!

Be tough, be tough!

Brooks called Durant to the sidelines at this time.

"Don't help, don't do that."

Durant's help defense is entirely a personal choice. He is the main offensive point of the Thunder, and it is impossible for Brooks to arrange him to help defense.

"Relax, you can make shots."

After Brooks finished speaking, he yelled at Durant who was already walking towards the basket.

His coaching style is of the same type as Williams', he is good at developing players, and he also knows where the problems of players are.

The reason why Durant went to help defend, besides wanting to stop Tang Tian, ​​the scoring king, was also a very important reason because he didn't feel good.

It is a normal choice for players to defend hard when their offense is not going well, but Durant is not a player who is good at defense.

Tang Tian made a hit and was punished despite the boos.

The Pelicans opened with a 9-2 lead.

"Shaq, you win!"

Barkley laughed in the commentary, the Pelicans are really in a bad state.

O'Neill gave Barkley a wink and, by the way, a smug look at Smith.

Why bother to analyze it, just stand in line with Tang Tian without thinking!

Westbrook's strong attack in the frontcourt was stopped, and the referee did not blow his whistle this time.

The chasing Tang Tian received a defensive rebound.

The efficiency of the turtle bombing does not seem to be high.

However, it also depends on who is using it.

Westbrook's thinking is relatively simple, and his passing vision is relatively narrow, which makes him look very anxious when he doesn't score.

But if Tang Tian uses it, the effect will definitely be better than Westbrook, just like McGrady.

The Thunder attacked the frontcourt. After Tang Tian broke through and attracted the double-teamer, Ganba missed the goal, but Davis made a second follow-up tip-up.

11 to 2.

The score on the field surprised everyone. The Pelicans were obviously weaker, but they kicked the Thunder on the ground in the opening game!

"Let's.go! OKC!"

The home DJ began to drive the fans to cheer for the Thunder.

Durant wants the ball back to play in the frontcourt.

His eyes were still full of murderous intent, but he was obviously more calm than before.

It's still a turnaround jumper, but the rhythm of the shot is obviously back.

"Shua!"

Durant's fourth attempt was hollowed into the net.

The adjustment ability of superstars is still very strong.

Tang Tian's attack with the ball was double-teamed, and the ball hit Davis again, and Davis made the second shot from the free throw line.

But this time he failed to seize the opportunity, and the basketball crashed at the front.

Although the talent is good, after all, it has only been trained for a few months, and the grasp is still not strong enough.

Ibaka protected the defensive rebound.

The Thunder attacked the frontcourt, and Durant once again asked for the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right wing.

With dribbling and passing, his previous style of running and catching the ball has been greatly reduced, and basically it has become such a single play with the ball.

Aminu defended well and gave enough interference.

Durant didn't make the first few shots. In addition to his own poor touch, it was also related to Aminu's excellent defense.

Relying on turning around and leaning back after the hit, Aminu struggled to save the interference to his sight.

This is a very good defense.

"Shua!"

But Durant ignored the defense and threw the ball in again!

Historic scorer!

Although his appearance is limited to Xiaoshuai and his personality is a bit sensitive, you cannot underestimate his scoring ability!

Durant scored 4 points in a row to help the Thunder narrow the point difference to 5 points.

They are on the move!

"Defend! Defend!"

The shouts at the scene were like a rainbow.

Although the Pelicans are still ahead, that advantage is not that great.

Moreover, the Thunder's defensive strength was obviously rising amidst the cheers, and the Pelicans had no chance to cooperate in consecutive waves.

Twenty seconds had passed, and Tang Tian held the ball against Sefolosha's defense and forced a shot.

"boom!"

Did not invest.

But Davis took off the key offensive rebound at this time, made a tip-up and scored the ball!

The Pelicans bench cheered excitedly.

Tang Tian also smiled and gave Davis another high-five.

His absence did allow Davis to grow up before, and now the Pelicans are obviously stronger than at the beginning of the season!

Durant was double-teamed by Davis in a singles in the frontcourt. He used his vision to successfully pass the ball to Ibaka, and Ibaka scored after receiving the ball.

8 to 13.

After all, the strength of the Thunder team lies there. After recovering, the two teams began to stalemate on the scene.

Holiday missed a three-pointer, and Westbrook's zombie shot also missed.

Davis' pass was intercepted by Durant, but Westbrook's fast break was also blocked by Davis.

The two teams' stalemate hit rate began to decline.

The game played almost half a quarter, and the score was still 8-13.

At this time, it depends on who can break the deadlock first.

Durant received the ball in the frontcourt and was double-teamed. This time he did not choose to pass the ball, but turned back to the baseline.

Davis' long arms put a lot of pressure on him.

"Shua!"

Durant threw the ball in again against the defense!

The way of working at heights is exactly such a bug!

There were constant cheers at the scene, and Durant came out to break the deadlock during the stalemate!

After this shot was made, his personal scoring in the first quarter also reached 6 points!

The point difference has also been narrowed to 3 points!

The pressure came to the Pelicans at this time.

Tang Tian held the ball again in the frontcourt, and Davis was going to pick and roll, but he called back.

The Thunder's defensive strategy in this period is to double-team him when there is a pick-and-roll. It is better not to block.

The team hasn't scored for a while, and he has to step up.

Sefolosha still sticks very tightly to the left.

Tang Tian walked to the left, but this time he didn't wait for Ibaka's help to defend him, and he stopped abruptly and shot.

Sefolosha's belated interference was limited.

"Shua!"

The basketball goes through the heart and into the net!

Tang Tian returned an answerball to Durant!

"here we go!"

Barkley said a little excitedly in the commentary seat at this time.

The performance of the Pelicans after the opening was very surprising, but what really caught the attention was the soaring points battle between Tang Tian and Durant.

These two people are constantly slobbering off the court, their momentum is hot, and they are also the core of their respective teams on the court.

Now Durant's 6 points are against Tang Tian's 7 points.

The two were evenly matched.

Durant held the ball directly outside the three-point line, and directly made a three-pointer after crossing the dribble.

His shooting posture is uglier than Tang Tian's, but his shooting point is really high.

Aminu almost jumped but couldn't reach it.

"Shua!"

Durant's three-pointer!

"Kevin~ Durant!!"

The live host shouted in a drawn-out tone.

Durant scored 5 points in a row! Help the Thunder catch up to only 2 points away!

He is really fulfilling his promise and winning the Pelicans with Tang Tian!

However, the cheers here hadn't stopped yet. Tang Tian's low-body cross step in the frontcourt changed the rhythm and directly swayed Sefoloza away.

Sefolosha is tall, and his center of gravity was a little bit out of focus and almost fell directly.

After Tang Tian swayed away, he pulled out his hand dryly.

Iconic scissor legs, picturesque pose.

It's also a dry three-pointer, the difference is that Tang Tian's is obviously more beautiful.

"Shua!"

The basketball goes through the heart and into the net!

answerball.again!

The battle for the scoring champion between the two has reached a fever pitch!

Thanks to Xingfeng Xiaoye for the reward.
