Chapter 742 You Used to Be Indifferent to Me (Third Update!)

Brown really knows James, even though it has been more than five years since he last coached James.

But he is the head coach who has coached James for the longest time, and the two have worked together for five years.

James' technology is improving, but many things cannot be changed, such as habits and handedness. Only those who have been with him for a long time know this.

And perhaps because of Woj's reporting, he was also a little angry with himself, and continued to attack after being targeted.

As a result, the Cavaliers' offensive efficiency was not high in this quarter, while the Pelicans continued to play efficiently under the leadership of Tang Tian.

In this quarter, the Pelicans in turn beat the Cavaliers 31 to 19. After three quarters, the Pelicans led the Cavaliers by 16 points 81 to 65.

In the final quarter, Blatt followed up with the lineup that opened the second quarter, and it worked again.

After Yang and Irving each scored a goal, the point difference was narrowed to 12 points.

Stevens reacted very quickly this time. Before the Cavaliers could further narrow the point difference, he replaced Tang Tian and Davis on the court in advance.

This is to prepare for a wave to take away the game directly.

After Tang Tian came up, he hit Thaddeus Young with a triple threat. After passing his opponent, he directly faced Thompson and scored 2+1.

Although everyone's abbreviation is TT, the strength of the two is quite different.

After Tang Tian made a free throw, the point difference was widened to 15 points again.

In the next round, Irving showed his personal ability. Sam Goad shook Dinwiddie away and hit a three-pointer with a step-back, narrowing the point difference to 12 points again.

Without James on the court, Irving played like an eagle without its shackles.

The Cavaliers' bench was abuzz.

But the next second, Tang Tian used the same method to get rid of Shumpert who had just come on the field, made a three-pointer and scored his 35th point of the game!

In this section, the two hard-working brothers immediately scored high!

Brat saw that neither Yang nor Shumpert could guard against Tang Tian, ​​so he turned around and called James up.

A score difference of about 15 points is not that big, but if the Cavaliers cannot reduce the score difference to less than 10 points at the beginning of the fourth quarter, there will be no need to play later.

After James came on the court, he stormed and caused Davis to foul. He went to the free throw line and made two free throws.

Stevens also replaced Aminu on the court. There were frequent substitutions on both sides during this period, and the coaches also fought fiercely off the court.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, and Tang Tian saw that the defender in front of him turned into James.

If it were normal, he would probably pull James away and let Jokic organize the offense.

After all, the Cavaliers' defense is half and half, half James and half others.

But thinking of Woj's previous report, he changed his attention and signaled to play the No. 1 tactic after receiving the ball.

The rest of the Pelicans opened up, and the weak side had tactical moves to contain the defense.

Seeing the Pelicans' tactics, bursts of boos began to ring out.

According to Woj's report before the game, the fans were the most excited. They wanted the Pelicans to beat the Cavaliers and Tang Tian to beat James.

Now that the Pelicans are almost beating the Cavaliers, all that's left is for Tang Tian to beat up James.

Tang Tian posed a three-man threat and collected the ball under his crotch after a tentative step.

James' defense is S-level, his predictions are very accurate, and Tang Tian has not been fooled.

However, Tang Tian accelerated his breakthrough to the left in the next second and still threw him away.

This is pure speed.

James wanted to chase the big block, but after Tang Tian saw Jokic blocking Mozgov, he directly jumped up and dunked with both hands.

"Bang!"

James' figure flew over his head, and Tang Tian scored with a powerful slam dunk with both hands.

The cheers immediately erupted.

A pass and a dunk. How long has it been since James was beaten like this?

"Don's got 40 points tonight!"

O'Neal laughed in the commentary box.

He could already feel Tang Tian's killing intent from the ball just now.

"The Cavaliers didn't have much of a chance."

Barkley laughed in agreement, glancing up at the timer.

The score between the two sides is stalemate, but time is getting shorter and shorter, and the Cavaliers' chances of winning are getting less and less.

James reached the frontcourt to catch the ball and saw that Aminu was still one step away from him, so he still did not choose to take a three-point shot.

Although he already has three-pointers in his arsenal, he really doesn't like shooting from that position right now.

He chose to break through from the right and got into the Pelicans' defensive pocket.

Aminu and Jokic surrounded him front and back, and his signature three-step layup caused Jokic's thug to foul.

After two free throws, the point difference returned to 13 points again.

James failed to guard Tang Tian, ​​but the Pelicans didn't guard James either.

Tang Tian continued to play the No. 1 tactic with the ball on the outside, but James was a little far away from Tang Tian this time.

He is confident in his speed. Even if Tang Tian chooses to shoot, he is confident that he can save it in time.

Tang Tian didn't shoot. He chose to break through after accelerating. After confronting James in the three-second zone, he directly chose to shoot backwards!

This move was unexpected by James. He didn't interfere, and Tang Tian's back was firmly in the bag!

Tang Tian scored 2 consecutive goals in the face of James' defense, and his personal score reached 39 points!

The cheers could not stop.

Now they really want to shout to the Heat management and James on behalf of Tang Tian.

You used to be indifferent to me, but now I am beyond your reach!

James continued to exploit the Pelicans' defensive pockets, and his ability is really strong. Jokic was well guarded, but he still scored a layup from close range!

Most people really can't guard James' three-step layup!

Blatter was pacing the sidelines anxiously at this time.

As Barkley said, although the score is deadlocked, time is now the Cavaliers' biggest enemy.

There is not much time left for the Cavaliers!

And just when he looked worried, Tang Tian deceived James with a breakthrough fake move, and directly made a three-pointer!

Tang Tian’s personal 42nd point!

In this section, he hit every target!

The score difference is back to 16 points again!

Bratt is an old man.

This time it was almost half a quarter, and the Cavaliers didn't catch up with a single point!

And in the next round, Tang Tian suddenly retracted his defense and broke out from the side to steal the ball from James' hands.

The Pelicans counterattacked, and Holiday's frontcourt layup over Irving scored 2+1, and the game was decided!

In the end, the Pelicans relied on their advantage in the third quarter and Tang Tian's consecutive scoring in the last quarter to beat the Cavaliers 113-97 at home.

They bounced back from a sluggish performance in the past week and won a hearty victory.

James scored a Cavaliers-high 33 points, but his efficiency of 10 of 26 shots tonight was not high. Irving had 23 points and 6 assists, and Love had 16 points.

For the Pelicans, Tang Tian played his best game since his comeback, making 17 of 27 shots from the field, effectively scoring a game-high 46 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals!
