v2 Chapter 5： Xiao Hua's New Favor (2 in 1)

The Thunder retired from the championship, but the competition in the West has not weakened at all.

The Warriors, Pelicans, Spurs, and even the Rockets, Clippers, and Grizzlies still have the ability to compete for the championship.

The West this year is definitely purgatory.

At a time when social media were talking about Durant's season reimbursement, the league announced the second round of ballots for the All-Star.

Tang Tian still has a strong momentum, with a total of 1.2 million votes in the second round, which has expanded his advantage over James (700,000 votes) to a full 500,000 votes.

He also easily became the second-round ticket king.

Following this momentum, he is likely to break his vote last year.

It is worth mentioning that Curry also had more than 700,000 votes, and he only had more than 300 votes less than James.

With the rise of the Warriors, this little man who was originally affected by ankle injuries has finally officially entered the ranks of superstars.

The Pelicans played against the Jazz, 76ers and Suns in the following week.

They all won in the end, expanding their winning streak to six games.

Just then, the league announced a new MVP ranking.

The Warriors have a rapid momentum, the record has surpassed the next-door eagle to come first in the league, and Curry has come from third to first.

James is still second.

Tang Tian also passed Harden to third place.

Harden came in fourth.

Anthony and Griffin are close behind.

It's a good thing to improve your rankings, and good things go in pairs.

Just after this list was updated, Tang Tian also received a text message from Yao Ming.

After months of preparations, the Basketball Association and the Basketball Management Center officially separated.

And at the just-concluded first Basketball Association meeting, Yao Ming officially became the new president of the Basketball Association.

Because of Tang Tian's intervention, Yao Ming became the chairman of the Basketball Association earlier than in history!

This is definitely a historic moment for Chinese basketball.

Tang Tian took a long breath when he saw the news. Two years was enough for Yao Ming to do something. It was easier to date in London than in London.

The Pelicans' next opponent is the Kings.

This series of opponents are not strong, which can be regarded as an absolute sweet schedule.

If they can successfully win the game, they will achieve the longest 7-game winning streak.

The game was played at the Kings' home. The Pelicans arrived in Sacramento one day in advance.

The Kings are an NBA veteran team. They joined the NBA in the 1940s, but it was also brilliant in that era.

After winning the NBA championship as the Rochester Royals in the 1950-51 season, they failed to reproduce their glory.

When the team changed its name to the Kings and moved to Sacramento, they were unable to reach the regional finals.

In the Cousins ​​era, they never even made it to the playoffs.

The team introduced the famous coach George Carr this season, and the team has not seen improvement yet, it has given people a feeling of rotten bones.

Against such opponents, the Pelicans' only goal is to win and continue to expand the winning streak.

After the team's daily training was over, Tang Tian stayed to practice, and he found that Nash was directing Dinwiddie to train.

This scene has been going on for the past week, and Nash is really not a three-minute fan of Dinwiddie.

After the training, Tang Tian could not help but curiously pulled Ding Weidi to chat and asked what happened between him and Nash.

To his surprise, Ding Weidi didn't know.

"Don't you know? When did Nash start coaching you? What happened that day?"

Tang Tian is more curious.

"Nothing happened. It was team training that day. I packed my teammates like before, bought donuts, participated in team training, practiced, and went home."

Ding Weidi said everything that happened that day.

When Ding Weidi said, Tang Tian also remembered the day when Nash came and his two daughters.

By the way, suddenly Nash came that day, Ding Weidi bought fewer donuts, and he ran again to buy Nash and his daughter.

That was not a big deal, and nobody cared.

But it seems that's what makes it happen.

Nash coveted his daughter. Maybe it was Ding Weidi's move that gave him some guidance, or maybe he found a **** to teach.

Most of the things happening are not earth-shattering, and many successes are not determined by one son or another. This is naturally the norm.

"Keep on, with Nash to guide you, you will improve quickly."

Tang Tian said with a smile at the end.

In history, Ding Weidi tossed around multiple teams, experienced ups and downs, and finally played a lot in the Nets.

But history has changed. Now that Nash has mixed in, Ding Weidi will definitely play a lot faster.

The next night, the Kings and Pelicans played officially at the Arco Arena.

The stadium was full.

This is a very abnormal phenomenon. The Kings have a poor record in recent years, and theoretically the attendance rate should be very low.

But in fact, the Kings have a very high attendance rate, whether it was during the Royals or after moving to Sacramento.

This is a kind of scene that cannot be understood with common sense. The only explanation is that, perhaps like the team name, the fans have a natural belief in the team.

The Kings Cousins ​​headed the team. He introduced Gay, two cores and other role players such as Collison and Landry last season. The paper strength is not bad.

After the game started, the Kings also played with the Pelicans.

Whiteside, who had previously performed well, was clearly suppressed by Cousins.

Confrontation and technology are at a disadvantage.

The two teams froze for nearly a quarter and a half.

The turn of the game took place in the second half of the second quarter.

In order to fight Cousins, the Pelicans sent a combination of Whiteside and Evans.

Evans didn't have much playing time after being squeezed out of the rotation by Jokic, but as a veteran, he is very professional and maintains a good competitive status.

Cousins ​​was clearly not as comfortable as before.

In addition, Evans is a veteran of the King. He is very familiar with Cousins' play. When defending, various snatches make Cousins ​​very uncomfortable.

Cousins ​​was having trouble playing, and his emotions were getting worse.

After being knocked off by Tang Tian and blown for defensive fouls in a defense, if Karl had not yelled at him, he would have to go straight away.

Tang Tian made two free throws, and the Pelicans pulled the difference to double digits.

The Kings' strength is almost close. Cousins ​​and Guy's lineup has a dozen in the east, but if they die in the west, they will be on the edge of the playoffs.

The Kings' offensive round.

Cousins ​​was holding the ball at a high position, and the Kings' tactical running position. He saw that the defender in front of him was Tang Tian, ​​and leaned against his back.

The situation was unfavorable, he played fiercely, and obviously wanted to revenge the ball just now.

Tang Tian was also very fierce at the beginning. When he felt Cousins ​​reached his peak, he lay down afterward.

He was intentional, but Cousins ​​was fierce, and he was knocked out of the air, sliding directly from the free-throw line.

The referee immediately whistleed to signal Cousins' offensive foul.

Cousins, seeing the referee's gesture, could no longer control his temper, and growled directly at the referee.

Although Tang Tian does not need to take too many defensive tasks after becoming the core of the team, it is really easy to defend one-on-one.

Otherwise, opponents knew that he had a single core last season, and then he could hold on to his physical strength.

Even an insider like Cousins ​​isn't at the rim and doesn't take much advantage.

Tang Tian's trick is a sharp weapon.

The referee blew Cousins ​​a technical foul in an attempt to shut the latter up.

But things did not go as expected, even with a teammate pulling, Cousins ​​still growled.

Karl had been on the sidelines before, but this was an attacking half and Carl couldn't get through.

In the end the referee was intolerable and gave a second technical foul.

Cousins ​​accumulated two technical fouls and was expelled directly from home.

There was an uproar at the scene.

Carl was stunned at halftime and he was only two months to the Kings, but this is the third time Cousins ​​has been expelled from the field.

For the first time, he also argued for Cousins ​​reasonably, the second time he could only shake his head, but now for the third time, he is speechless.

As a coach for 30 years, he was the first time to coach a player with such a bad temper.

And unlike Rashid Wallace, whom he met at the beginning, Wallace is often honest after eating T, or Wallace ran away to motivate his teammates.

But Cousins ​​was like a big kid who couldn't control his temper, and had no brain.

He felt like he couldn't stand such a coach.

The Kings invited him to change the team, not to let him feel bad.

Cousins ​​was expelled, and the Kings went through the habitual crash they used to experience.

The Pelicans eventually won the Kings 109-88, winning the longest seven-game winning streak of the season.

After the game, the Pelicans' dressing room cheered.

After this game, they will play against the Warriors next game.

The last time the Pelicans lost, this time they will definitely win back.

And Davis will also officially return in that game.

That would be a great opportunity for their revenge.

The Pelicans cheered, but the atmosphere on the Kings was completely the opposite.

They have suffered a five-game losing streak in the new year and have yet to win.

Carl entered the locker room and talked to Cousins.

The voice of the two people changed from small to loud, and finally turned into a fierce quarrel.

Although the situation was calmed down by the team's new vice president of operations, Divac, but this has been heard by several reporters outside the locker room.

Cousins ​​did not show up at the press conference after the game.

A reporter asked about the quarrel in the locker room.

"That was an exchange."

Carl's answer was fairly official.

"I hope DeMarcus can learn how to treat the game properly. He is the core and soul of the team. He must put the winning first and learn to control his emotions. This is not a college game. This is NBA. "

But what he said later was not so polite.

It can be seen that what Divac has done in the locker room is not enough, and Carl is a public diss Cousins' temper.

But this may also be Carl's style, he has publicly criticized Anthony before when the Nuggets.

Sacramento remains stormy.

Two days later, Davis officially returned, and the Pelicans in the full lineup once again faced the Warriors.

Tang Tian quickly entered the state after the opening. At the end of the half, he led the team to lead the Warriors 60 to 50.

The Pelicans have a winning streak, and the team is in a hot state.

The only thing that didn't play well was Davis. He only made 1 of 6 shots in the first half. He just returned after experiencing a wrist injury, and his feel was not very good.

In the third quarter, the situation on the field suddenly changed, and the Brothers of the Water started the daily brutality.

Curry scored two steps away from the three-point line and Thompson shot Ariza for three consecutive shots. The Warriors quickly caught up and overtook the score.

They scored 40 points in a single quarter, and at the end of the third quarter they in turn led the Pelicans 90-80.

In the last quarter, Tang Tian scored madly and shot consecutively, hitting the superstar style. He scored 20 points in a single quarter and led the Pelicans to tie the score.

At the last moment, he was double-teamed by the Warriors, and the ball was given to Davis, who made a key mid-range shot.

Bogut took the rebound and gave it to Curry. Curry passed the midfield and threw it into logo.shot to end the game.

Curry scored a 41 points and 8 assists for the Warriors.

Tang Tianqi scored 50 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, but still lost.

Both played MVP-level performances.

The game was so violent and irritable that the fans talked a lot after the game.

"I have found out that Tang has a tendency to become the owner of this year!"

"Tang really did his best. This is Davis's pot. He made 5 of 15 shots, which was obviously unqualified, including the last middle distance. If he casts it, this game is another end. "

"Love Curry, his performance this season is phenomenal, Cole has completely liberated him, and that logo.shot really sees me wet."

"The Pelicans are also playing very well. It will take time for Davis to return after he returns. It will be difficult to say who wins and loses. I now look forward to the two teams in the playoffs!

"Most of them will go to the Western Conference. If they do meet, it will be a game of turbulence!"

...

The heat of this game was very high, even the official tweets of the league.

"The confrontation between the two MVP players, Stephen Curry led the team to the last laugh, a landmark player."

This tweet supported Curry and the Warriors in an absolutely positive way.

The league seems to be impatient for a new label character.

Alliance Office.

Xiao Hua's mood at this moment is really beyond words.

Last year he let the Heat's Big Three fulfill their dreams, which played a very positive and positive role in the market.

But he soon discovered that the pace of the NBA game is too slow and the game is too long.

This is not conducive to the promotion of the game ~ www.novelhall.com ~ It is also easy to make people sleepy.

Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the rhythm of the game and improve the appreciation of the game.

Curry's appearance is just right. Those three midfielders and super long threes can not only speed up the rhythm of the game, but also ignite the scene instantly.

Although Curry is too old to be trained as the first person in the next league, it is very suitable to be a label character.

That would bring a huge reform to the league.

And that's exactly what he desperately wants to see, he just wants a radical reform.

So he really can't wait to use the official to support Curry and the Warriors.

Although this may not seem appropriate, did Stern support Tang Tian in this way?

At best he just followed suit.
