"This is a very exciting game, our opponents played a first-class defensive strength, they are respectable opponents."
After the press conference, Stevens was still boasting about the Thunder.
"But you won them 20 points."
The reporter reminded.
"There is no difference between winning 20 points and winning 1 point. They just feel bad tonight. Once they find the feel, the game will become completely different."
After listening to Stevens, Tang Tian couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.
I don't know if he stayed with him for a long time. Stevens had become a serious coach and became a bit skinny.
Could this be the so-called near Zhuzhe Chi, and the near Mozhe black?
The Pelicans had a relaxed atmosphere at the press conference, and the Thunder were not so relaxed.
Head coach Donovan suffered a bombardment of reporters.
Some questioned his platoon formation, some questioned his defensive adjustment was not timely, and some questioned his lack of tactics.
"Coach Donovan did everything he could, and it was me who lost the game."
Westbrook took the initiative to come forward and help Donovan block the bullet.
His performance was indeed not good this time, and when he stood up to speak, the reporters immediately stopped the attack on Donovan.
But immediately, the muzzle turned to Westbrook.
"Do you have any way to deal with Tang's defense?"
"Do you think there is still a chance for the Thunder behind the game?"
"Is this team missing Durant without winning anymore?"
Westbrook glanced coldly at the reporter who finally asked the question, a flash of murderousness flashed in his eyes.
"I will adjust my state in the next game."
But he did judge the two players off the court and on the court, acting extremely calmly.
"We just lost a game, it's nothing, I believe my team members, we still have a chance."
Donovan coughed twice before speaking.
Although he lost the first game, the Thunder general looked very united.
Their unity is not only reflected in the media.
After finishing the press conference, the two people exchanged a lot in the aisle.
The content of the exchange is naturally related to the tactics of the Pelicans.
On the second day of training, Donovan conducted targeted defensive training against the Thunder ’s diverse tactics.
Judging from the performance of the team members, such targeted training greatly improves morale.
Two days later, the second game of the Pelicans and Thunder series continued in New Orleans.
Two hours before the start of the game, a large number of fans have gathered inside and outside the arena.
The big win in the opener and the team's rich tactics have made the fans' expectations for the game even higher.
Members of the two teams also entered the underground garage one after another.
Tang Tian was chased and photographed by reporters all the way, and when he entered the elevator, he texted Butler to encourage the latter.
The Mavericks and Rockets will play before them, the last Mavericks lost away, Butler needs his encouragement.
"I will do my best every night, but it would be nice if you were by my side."
Butler quickly responded, but the content of the reply was intriguing.
It seems that the jokes that are spoken at the All-Star Party are not just jokes.
Tang Tian did not return, put away his phone and went directly to the locker room to change his training clothes.
His attention is still in front of the game.
The Pelicans' tactics will be the same as the previous one, but it is foreseeable that the Thunder will definitely do targeted defense.
So this game will be a lot harder than the first game.
However, they will not change their tactics. The first game was unexpected. To play the role of training, the second scene is the key to targeted defense.
Tang Tian saw Stevens just before coming into the locker room. The two people exchanged a few words briefly. Stevens thought of what he thought.
"We must be prepared to fight hard."
Entering the locker room, Stevens also vaccinated the team members in advance.
Two hours later, the second game of the Pelicans and Thunder series officially started.
As expected by Tang Tian and Stevens, the Pelicans 'defense and targeting in this game, the Pelicans' offensive efficiency is significantly reduced compared to the first game.
After halftime, the two teams scored 42 to 40.
The score difference is small, the score is low, this is a close combat.
This scene continued until the fourth quarter.
In the second half of the fourth quarter, Tang Tian stood up to take over the game and played a 12-2 personal wave, helping the Pelicans to win the game 91-81.
Tang Tian got the team's highest 25 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, Davis had 21 points and 9 rebounds, Jokic had 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, Williams had 13 points and Bo Yang had 11 points.
Westbrook made 7 of 27 shots, scoring a double-double with 21 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists.
"We have found a way to fight against the Pelicans. Although this game was not won, we are very confident in the next game. We will start to fight back at home. We look forward to the next game."
At the press conference after the game, Donovan showed confidence.
This time they played with the Pelicans to the last moment, he should also have such confidence.
The Pelicans' locker room.
Davis whistle in the shower room, Dior shares a whistle in the locker room, and Boyan and Brogdon chase in the locker room.
Tang Tian also leaned on the soft chair and video of his two sons. In the video, Downs was riding on Mei short. In the eyes of Mei short, there was an expression of "I paid too much for this family" ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Although I only won 10 points this time, I can see that the players are in a good mood.
They should also be in this state. Although they have not won much, both the performance of the game and the data show that they are playing better and better.
The low score is due to the Thunder's defense. If they meet the defensive strength of the first game, they can score 80 points.
After two days of rest, the Pelicans headed to Oklahoma City. The next two games will be played at the home of the Thunder.
The results of the last game gave the Thunder regained their confidence and excited the fans of Oklahoma City.
The Pisacek Energy Arena that night was full.
But after the game started, they found that the situation was completely different from what they had imagined.
The Pelicans are still changing tactics in the first two games, and the Thunder are also the last defense.
But it is obvious that the Thunder's defensive effect against the Pelicans is not as good as the last game.
8 points behind in one quarter, 15 points behind halftime, and another 20 points apart in three quarters.
In the end, the Thunder defeated the Pelicans 82 to 104 at home, and the score was already 0 to 3 behind.
After the game, Donovan, like the first game after the game, became the target of media bombardment.
Even because it was a home battle, there were more reporters from the local media and more shelling.
This time Westbrook didn't come out to block the bullet again, and Donovan blushed for a while, his expression very helpless.
The best defenses do not work, and the team's paper strength is so much worse.
What can he do besides carrying the pan?
He is also desperate!
