Chapter 429 He Redefines Ganba! (First Update!)
Substitute time passed, and the two sides changed players.
The Pelicans lineup Holiday, Gordon, Tang Tian, Anderson and Davis.
The Spurs have Parker, Ginobili, Green, Leonard and Duncan.
Popovich's adjustment was to strengthen the offense and change the faster Green to defend Tang Tian.
This adjusted strategy is timely and targeted.
Ginobili used Leonard's pick-and-roll to break through Anderson for a layup.
37 to 31, the Spurs lead.
Looking back, Tang Tian singled Green with the ball.
Green is also very tight, and Davis's personal pick-and-roll failed.
In Green's words, he was the best player in the pick-and-roll last season after Tang Tian and Tony Allen.
Tang Tian directly chose Qiangtu.
Take two steps to hold the ball and hit it hard.
That's how violent the dynamite pack breaks through.
Green was obviously overwhelmed.
He is a standard shooting guard. You can let him defend Tang Tian before he gained weight, but it is too difficult for him to defend Tang Tian now.
With the skill bonus of the dynamite pack, the confrontation between two people is not on the same level.
Duncan from the basket came over to help defend, and Tang Tian accurately threw a through ball to Davis.
Davis jumped up slightly after receiving the ball and it was a dunk.
33 to 37!
"His style of play is really special." Smith sighed when he saw this.
"The shot is as elegant as McGrady, but the breakthrough is a bit like LeBron and Westbrook."
O'Neill and Barkley both nodded after listening.
Generally speaking, due to the relationship between weight and body shape, it is difficult for players to possess these two skills at the same time, and the balance is difficult to grasp.
But Tang Tian did it.
If I have to say it, it is really comparable to the peak Mai Neng of the Magic period.
Leonard made a sudden layup from Anderson in the frontcourt and was missed by Davis.
His breakthrough efficiency this season has always been very high, but when he met Davis, his talent was obviously suppressed.
And this ball can also be seen that he still has a lot of room for improvement in breaking through and scoring.
The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, but it was still Tang Tian who handled the ball.
This is the standard core play.
No matter how close Green was, Tang Tian didn't even try to pull it out this time, he just took a step to force it in.
It is a coach's basic common sense to use different offensive methods for different defenders.
Green's chest was aching from being hit right now, Tang Tian really didn't hold back.
Duncan didn't dare to come over to help defend this time, Tang Tian hated Green's shot to the basket, and the shot after the confrontation.
Goal in, whistle blows.
2+1!
The fans on the sidelines were restless.
"How the hell did he do it!"
Barkley spread his hands and shouted at this time.
Earlier, Smith mentioned Tang Tian's special style of play, but he still found it amazing.
When facing Leonard, the white horse spear with fluttering long shirt suddenly turned into a solid sledgehammer.
Tang Tian's opportunity for additional punishment.
Popovich then turned around and called Splitter to replace Green.
Clearly, these two bouts have proven his attempts to have failed.
Although Leonard's defensive effect is not very good, he can still face the upper position anyway.
After Tang Tian took a deep breath, he made a penalty hit.
His personal score came to 16 points, and the Pelicans chased the score to 36-37.
The difference is only 1 point.
Duncan's low singles rebuild Anderson's thugs.
In this kind of high-intensity game, Anderson really couldn't stand on the defensive end.
Williams can only replace him with Jason Smith.
Duncan made one of two free throws and the Spurs led 38 to 36.
After the main players of both sides came back, the situation on the court was extremely anxious.
In the following period of time, the confrontation between the two teams on the court was very fierce.
Tang Tian missed several shots in a row, and the Spurs also hit the iron one after another.
When entering the final five minutes, the score was still 38-36.
At this time, whoever can break the deadlock will be able to take the initiative in the game.
Gordon's pick-and-roll three-point opportunity is good.
"boom!"
But his shot jumped out of the basket!
Under high-intensity confrontation, the shooting feel will be greatly affected.
Split protected the defensive rebound, and the Spurs went to the frontcourt to play a hammer tactic.
Parker drove to the basket and faced Smith's signature spinning top for a layup.
This is a very good opportunity.
However, Davis' help defense came in time, disrupting his shot and successfully protecting the defensive rebound.
The situation is still deadlocked!
Scoring is still difficult!
"Defend! Defend!"
The cheers of the fans at the scene were again.
The Pelicans went to the frontcourt again. Tang Tian took the initiative to play an off-ball pick-and-roll with Davis. He was very close to Davis, and after the pull-out, he caught the ball and directly pulled it out.
Under the dislocation, Duncan's interference is still limited.
"Shua!"
Tang Tian's dry pull hit!
He helped the Pelicans take the lead in breaking the deadlock!
The cheers on the sidelines were once again interrupted by Tang Tian.
Tang Tian really had a hard time with the home fans tonight!
Ginobili used Leonard's pick-and-roll to break through and kill the basket in a snake shape. His shot was quite elegant, and he licked the basket in the air after jumping.
"boom!"
Tang Tian, who was chasing after him, caught up and slapped the ball out of the field with a merciless cap.
Fall in love, kill each other!
The fans on the sidelines were restless.
Once upon a time, when they were in a stalemate, it was Tang Tian who set an example on both offense and defense just like before.
Now Tang Tian is still Tang Tian, but it is no longer theirs.
This offense and defense were quite boosted, and the Pelicans successfully defended against the Spurs' offense.
After advancing to the frontcourt, Tang Tian holds the ball, and Davis still closes the pick-and-roll.
After Tang Tian's pick-and-roll, a breakthrough feint forced Duncan to shift his center of gravity back, and then he jumped up on the spot.
The iconic scissor legs in the air, and the picturesque dry pulling posture.
The ball is released and spins.
"Shua!"
Still in!
After a period of interruption, he finally resumed the feeling!
The morale of the Pelicans was like a rainbow, and they were stunned to defend against the Spurs' offense again, and this time it was directly Davis' steal!
The Pelicans played a fast break, and Tang Tian followed up from the right to receive a pass from Holiday.
But Parker chased and defended the ball faster.
Tang Tian beckoned directly for Holledi to come over.
A pick-and-roll, Parker took a step back to allow Tang Tian to use the pick-and-roll to break through.
But after Tang Tianyun took a step, he pulled up and shot directly from outside the three-point line!
The ball whirls through the air towards the hoop.
"Shua!"
Hollow into the net again!
In the stalemate, he made 3 consecutive pull-ups, helping the Pelicans to overtake and establish a 5-point lead!
"Man! He redefined Ganba!" Barkley exclaimed in the commentary booth.
"Yes, he let us know how lethal this technology is when that guy T-Mac doesn't shoot xjb!" O'Neill also blew directly.
It's nothing to brag about, but what they brag about is well-founded.
The biggest difference between Tang Tian's Ganba and McGrady is that he seldom makes shots against people, or his shots are all in pursuit of maximizing efficiency.
Switch to the big man to build up the speed advantage, or use the deceptiveness of the drive to create space for the pull-up.
When he uses technology, he is always accompanied by defensive reading!
Thanks to Xingfeng Xiaoye for the reward.
