The cheers were overwhelming, and the air was filled with the smell of excitement.

D'Antoni looked serious on the sidelines.

The Rockets' defense tonight was very successful, but Tang Tian was unreasonable, and the Rockets who scored consecutive points didn't have any temper at all.

If Team Rocket had Don......

At the thought of this, D'Antoni immediately shook his head and even wanted to give himself a slap in the face.

He had such an opportunity three years ago, but he gave it up himself.

Thinking about this at this time is tantamount to slapping yourself in the face!

"James, do what you have to do!"

He shouted at Harden, who retreated to the backcourt.

Harden is also a superstar, but he hasn't opened yet.

Harden was yelled at by D'Antoni like this, and his face was a little unbearable.

But seeing D'Antoni's serious expression, he knew that his manager must be annoyed by now.

And as the core of the team, his performance on 0-of-3 shots after the opening game was indeed a bit dismal.

But the problem is, Tang Tian is guarding against him!

This is the most serious problem, and his second brother has just been repaired in the first round.

But D'Antoni roared like that, and he could only face his scalp.

In the frontcourt, Harden reached out to Paul for the ball, and then motioned for Cousins to pull up to the high post to block the pick-and-roll.

Cousins' height is not as tall as Adams of the Thunder, but his body is larger, and this time he really blocked Tang Tian.

Harden saw an opportunity and quickly broke inside after taking it apart.

Ariza on the weak side came over to help defend, and Harden shot after direct confrontation.

Although he is a scoring guard, he is heavy, and he will not suffer in this confrontation.

"Bang!"

However, at the moment when he shot the ball, a big hand came from behind him, and with a slap, the fan flew directly out of the field.

He looked back in astonishment.

Tang Tian!

It's Tang Tian again!

Cousins blocked him in front, but he didn't block it completely, and Tang Tian chased Harden next.

The fans at the scene were crazy, Tang Tian could do everything at both ends of the offense and defense tonight!

He was so excited!

The Rockets sent the ball out on the sideline, and Harden continued to break through, but this time he learned to be good and gave the ball back to Cousins after the break.

Cousins pressed Kicic in the middle of the game and finally put the ball in the basket.

The Rockets' second athletic goal.

4 to 9, the Rockets played quite well in this segment.

"Come on! Pelicans! ”

The home DJ also felt that the Rockets were on the rise, and drove the fans to cheer for the home team.

Tang Tian was caught with the ball, and he gave the ball to Jokic.

Jokic's high post with the ball.

Increasing ball possession isn't about keeping the ball all the time, and the Pelicans' tactics in the first round aren't all abandoned.

Jokic lifted the ball with his back to Cousins and looked at the six.

The two wings of Ariza and Tang Tian are cut in the air.

Jokic passed the ball to Tang Tian, and the Rockets pounced on Tang Tian like a hornet in the next second.

Don has gravity!

However, in the crowd, Tang Tian made an accurate through ball, and the ball went directly through the heavy defense to the bottom line Davis.

Davis took a step to catch the ball and scored with a powerful dunk of both hands.

The cheers at the scene rose again.

This round the Pelicans played smoothly.

And with this level of bagging, Tang Tian can still pass the ball out!

If the playoffs are compared to a war, Tang Tian in the first round just hid behind the army and paddled the water, occasionally going out to cut a few people, but in this round, he went directly to the battlefield at the beginning!

9 points and 1 assist.

The Pelicans' opening 11-pointer was all related to him!

He was wearing a battle robe, but what he was holding in his hand was Fang Tian's painting halberd!

And on the opposite side of the Rockets, there are exactly three Ying!

The eldest brother Paul Liu, the second brother Guan Harden, and the third brother Zhang Cousins!

There was An Lubu before, and now there is Tang Fengxian!

In this first encounter of the second season of the Pelicans, New Orleans has become a tiger prison!

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 23-12, and the Pelicans led by 11 points.

Tang Tian played the whole first quarter, scoring 14 points and 3 assists, and one person scored more points than the entire Rockets.

The three giants on the opposite side combined only scored a total of 10 points.

Before the Tiger Prison Pass, the three British battles against Lu Bu.

It's just that the difference is that Sanying obviously can't fight this time!

In the opening stages of the second quarter, the main players of both sides rested off the court.

In this kind of high-intensity game, both teams used nine or even ten players in rotation.

Last season, the Rockets' main team was able to play a dozen with the Rockets, losing to the bench, and this year they have strengthened the bench.

And it worked.

Gordon was hot in the face of his old master, scoring consecutive points on a three-point plus breakaway.

On the Pelicans' side, Williams and Bojan both had a mediocre touch.

After more than five minutes of bench transitions, the Rockets managed to chase the margin to 20-27.

The performance in this segment also inspired the main players of the Rockets.

In the second half of the second quarter, the main forces of both sides returned, and the Rockets frequently attacked the Pelicans inside, and the two sides fought evenly.

At halftime, it was 34-41, and the margin on the court was still 7 points.

There are still a dozen of the two teams.

At half-time, players from both sides went back to the locker room one after another.

"Give the ball to Tang Tian, the others do a good job of defense, Luis, Bojan, you must stand up for the transition section."

The two sides were evenly matched at half-time, and Stevens was serious in the dressing room.

In such a matchup, the first game will be very important, and the side that wins the first game will have the absolute initiative in morale and tactics.

Both Williams and Bojan nodded earnestly, and if they hadn't played well in the first half, the Pelicans wouldn't have been in this situation.

The time for half-time was fast approaching, and the players were all back on the pitch one after another.

Before leaving the locker room, Stevens pulled Tang Tian alone.

'If Luiz and Bojan can't find their form yet, you have to be prepared to play more in the second half.

The implication of this sentence is that you should be ready to be by me for the second half at any time.

Tang Tian nodded, although the intensity of the confrontation tonight was higher than any previous match, he had a legend in his body, and it was not a problem to support him.

Coming back in the second half, the Rockets attacked first.

They continued the style of play in the first half and continued to attack the Pelicans' interior.

However, Stevens was targeted in the half, Paul's layup was blocked, and Cousins' secondary offense was also interfered with.

Davis defended the defensive rebound at the end.

The Pelicans advanced to the frontcourt, and Holiday continued to give the ball to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian was quite decisive this time, and after receiving the ball, he accelerated directly inside, not giving the Rocket team a chance to wrap up.

However, he burst to the free throw line, and the Rockets' bag still came up.

The three people surrounded it.

Except for Cousins guarding the basket and Morris clinging to Davis, the other three Rockets were all on the line.

Tang Tian deceived Harden with a feint of passing the ball outward, and then turned to the other side and leaned back.

Paul and Tucker both pounced, and Paul made small moves in the air, but they were too short!

Tang Tian faced the defense's signature back.

The ball flew over the heads of Tucker and Paul, under the watchful eye of the Rockets.

"Huh!"

Pierce the net!

Ten thousand hosts are in a no-man's land!

Tang Fengxian!
