v3 Chapter 808： How many floors does a bag of rice carry?

At halftime, the Pelicans' dressing room was a little dull.

Before the start of the playoffs, they ran confidently to win the championship, but did not expect it to be like this in the first half of the game.

This is the first eighth. If all of them play so hard, then why do they compete for this championship?

Davis even lowered his head and didn't speak, as if he had changed from the sunshine boy to the dumb boy again.

Stevens quickly arrived in the locker room.

Seeing the status of the players, he smiled and began to speak.

"Guys, don't have that expression. The playoffs are a long, long journey. We have just taken the first step. Although it is a bit crooked, we can adjust our pace and still be able to go.

Stevens knew that the first half was not the normal level of the Pelicans, and knew that the performance was because he was too excited.

But he did not blame it, but used other methods to soothe and mobilize the team members' emotions.

This approach has played a role.

After soothing, Stevens went on to arrange the second half tactics.

Tang Tian's offensive proportion was significantly increased.

Stevens wanted to mobilize the status of other players through the previous game, but things went against him. Now the situation is unfavorable, he needs Tang Tian to stand up.

The opening game is important, the Pelicans cannot lose this game.

Stevens returned to the coaching office after finishing the tactics.

Tang Tian saw that Davis was not in a good mood, reached out and patted him, and pointed to the tattoo on his arm.

Davis looked at the championship trophy, nodded after a moment of glance, his eyes became firm again.

Back at halftime, neither team adjusted the lineup.

The Mavericks came first in the second half.

"Defend! Defend!"

As soon as the second half of the game began, fans on the scene cheered in unison for the Pelicans.

The situation in the first half was unexpected, but fans remained confident in the team.

Nowitzki asked for the ball from a low post. Davis didn't blindly defend at this time, but chose to defensively around the front.

He has a long wingspan, and Deron at the perimeter was afraid to hang the ball in.

Nowitzki tried to bypass the semi-forward several times, but was unsuccessful. Deron directly saw the ball to Butler.

Butler held the ball, Embiid raised the high pick-and-roll, but Butler accelerated to the basket after a short throw.

"boom!"

Butler's attention has always been on Jokic, not paying attention to the defense on the weak side.

Davis showed his defensive coverage and slaps the ball off the field after assisting.

He yelled in excitement after blocking.

Cheering violently broke out at the scene.

No one knows what happened in the midfield, but Davis's appearance in the second half is obviously better than the first half.

The Mavericks sent a sideline ball, but there was not much time left in the offense. Harris quickly shot outside the three-point line and missed.

Davis turned and received a defensive rebound.

The Mavericks retreated quickly and did not give the Pelicans a chance to break fast.

Holloday held the ball to Tang Tian and gave it to Tang Tian.

The other players pulled away and Tang Tian received the ball to face Butler.

Brothers and acquaintances are familiar with each other.

Tang Tian knows that Butler's defense is now the first in the league, but Butler's wingspan is short, which limits the latter's defensive ceiling and is a breakthrough.

A false move after a trial step followed by a dry pull.

Butler struggled to interfere, but short-handed interference was limited.

"Oh!"

Tang Tian's three-point hollow entered the net.

Cheers rose again.

Tang Tian didn't score much in the first half, only 10 points, but the low score is not because he is not in good shape, but it is Stevens' tactical requirement to make fewer shots.

He made 4 of 6 shots in the first half, and he didn't feel bad at all.

For the Mavericks' offense, Harris took Deron's pass after receiving Nowitzki's off-ball pick-and-roll.

His off-ball is really a bit level.

However, Davis was very fast. He flew up to interfere with his foot. After his shot was disturbed, he shot out of the frame.

Davis turned around and grabbed another defensive rebound.

He started with defense in the second half and has slowly recovered.

The Mavericks did not make continuous attacks in the second half. Carlisle was anxious and got up to the side to remind the players of the defensive position.

After the teammates pulled away, Tang Tian continued the No. 1 tactic to hit Butler.

This time, after he tried his steps, he accelerated directly to the right.

Butler has not been deceived by the three threats, and his defense is in place.

However, Tang Tian chose to take a back-up shot to break through the emergency stop.

Butler struggled to save the interference, and the judgment was correct, but unfortunately he still had short hands and hit Tang Tian directly.

After the referee whistle, Tang Tian still completed his shot, and the ball went in after two bounces at the leading edge of the basket.

This is still 2 + 1!

Cheers abounded, Butler held his head with both hands.

His defense has been good enough on this ball, but Tang Tian's personal ability is really too strong.

After a solid hit and penalty, Tang Tian scored 6 points in the second half to help the Pelicans narrow the difference to 2 points.

Embiid's shot in the low singles Jokic was missed by Ariza.

After returning in the second half, the Pelicans obviously increased their defensive strength, and the Mavericks' offense was somewhat stagnant.

Embiid was a little annoyed after not making a shot, and the back-off speed was a bit slower. The Pelicans directly played defense and counterattacked.

The Pelicans had four games in the frontcourt. Tang Tian received Holliday's pass and put the ball directly into the basket against Deron's defense.

The score was tied!

The Mavericks' offense, Delong's layup through the basket was blocked by Tang Tian.

Jokic protected defensive rebounds, the Mavericks still did not score!

The Pelicans' fast break didn't have a chance and they moved into position.

Tang Tian was caught with a ball.

Carlisle knows Tang Tian's passing ability now, but Tang Tian's hands are too hot now.

Tang Tian didn't upload the ball, he chose to change to the right and make a breakthrough.

Embiid at the free-throw line directly assisted the defense after seeing it. This is a three-man pocket team.

Tang Tian passed the ball to Jokic in the back.

Embiid backed up.

But Jokic didn't stop in his hand, and the next second, he threw the ball directly to the top of the basket.

Tang Tianren moves with the ball ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Flying to catch the ball with his right hand, he scores with a one-handed open catch.

The Pelicans overtake the score!

The entire New Orleans Arena was lit.

This fit, this dunk, and their familiar Pelicans returned in the second half!

Carlisle reached for a timeout.

The Pelicans came up to play the Mavericks 10-0 in the second half, and these 10 points were all obtained by Tang Tian alone!

This scene is like the famous scene in "Naruto".

The two sides were fighting fiercely, and suddenly a figure overlooked the crowd, and then read his lines.

"How many floors will a bag of rice carry ..."

Then the situation was instantly reversed.

ps: Everyone goes to bed early, good night.
