Chapter 950: Lu's blood pressure is a little high
"Nikolai, your card position needs to be improved!"
In the locker room at halftime, Davis pulled Jokic and said.
Whiteside grabbed five offensive rebounds in the first half alone.
Of course, more importantly, Tang Tian only took 4 rebounds in the half, which is obviously less for them who are determined to help Tang Tian brush up on statistics.
"I'll take notice."
Jokic nodded earnestly.
After the penalty scale was changed, most of the fans' attention was on the supergiants like Harden and Curry, but he was actually affected by it as well.
And unlike Harden and Curry, he is limited by his individual offensive ability and has not yet adapted and adjusted.
It may take time, but it's a big one and he's got to do it well.
Coming back in the second half, the Pelicans attacked first.
It's still Tang Tian holding the ball.
"He's a monster now."
Seeing that the Pelicans were still playing like this in the second half, the commentator at home couldn't help but sigh.
It's been 100% with the ball for a whole half, and it's still playing like this in the second half!
Brother, you're still hurt!
Tang Tian continued to play Lefu with the ball.
Lefu's expression was a little autistic, this was the rhythm that really wanted to squeeze him dry.
This time James contracted the bag in advance, and Tang Tian passed the ball to Ariza in the bottom corner.
Ariza catches the ball with a three-point shot.
"Bang dang!"
The shot was a bit off, and the basketball smashed out of the frame.
Whiteside tried to get up, only to find Jokic weighing his entire weight on him.
Jokic knew that the confrontation and the speed of the bullet could not fight, and he went straight to the weight.
Whiteside didn't get up, and Davis turned around and jammed James.
Tang Tian flew up in one step and put the ball into the basket with one hand.
Whiteside wanted to knock Jokic upside down when he saw it.
Not only did this ball have 2 points, but also 1 rebound!
Tang Tian is only 5 rebounds away from 6 consecutive triple-doubles!
"Well done."
As he stepped back, Davis gave Jokic a thumbs up as he spoke.
Aside from personal strength, Jokic's walk of the word has already thrown off the ungrateful Whiteside N Street opposite.
The Cavaliers' offense, James burst into Love, and the latter's three-point shot almost missed three.
The defensive end was stabbed in doubt, and the offensive self-confidence was also lost.
Jokic and Davis slapped the ball directly at Whiteside and James.
Tang Tian collected another defensive rebound.
Tang Tian only got a total of 4 rebounds in the first half, but in just over a minute in the second half, he had already taken 2 rebounds in a row!
Whiteside said that he would not let Tang Tian continue to get three doubles, but at this pace, it is no longer whether he can get it, but whether he can get it in three quarters!
The Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian suddenly split Holiday and the latter's three-pointer hit the iron.
Hand-to-hand combat under the basket.
But at this moment, an unbelievable scene happened.
Instead of tangling with Jokic, Whiteside went straight to Catangtian's position!
Whiteside was big, and Tang Tian was stuck under the basket, and Tang Tian really couldn't get up.
But Jokic is equal to no one cares about it!
He easily picked up the offensive rebound and scored directly on the dunk!
Lou looked at the sidelines with his eyes wide open and his mouth open in disbelief.
Is this guy Whiteside bad in his brain or bad in his head!
He glanced up at the score.
61 to 46, these two consecutive waves of scoring, the Pelicans have widened the difference to as many as 15 points!
He's already thinking about whether to replace Whiteside.
Defense can be changed by losing weight, but you really can't help it if you have a bad brain!
At the critical moment, Irving stepped up and took advantage of Whiteside's pick-and-roll to drift a three-pointer, and the Cavaliers narrowed the gap to 12 points.
Jokic's outside catch missed a three-point shot, James rushed to grab a defensive long rebound and directly hit the offensive and defensive transition, and the layup also caused Ariza's pull.
After the free throw was hit, the margin was in single digits.
The Cavaliers are really stronger now, and they are really resistant to beating a lot.
Tang Tian continued to hold the ball in the front court, and he did not call Davis's block again.
In this period, the Pelicans didn't make three shots in a row, and his teammates' hands fluctuated, and he had to try to attack on his own.
In an interview, Whiteside said that Tang Tian's words were only right, and he cared more about winning or losing than Westbrook, but he didn't care about the data.
His ultimate goal is to win!
Without a pick-and-roll, he confronted Shampert's triple threat head-on, and after a tentative step, he accelerated to a sharp stop and turned back.
The whole set of technical actions was done in one go, and Shampert was not ready for Tang Tian's sudden change of play, so he couldn't react, so he could only watch Tang Tian make a dashing move.
"Huh!"
Tang Tian's backward shot steadily helped the team break the scoring drought.
James broke through Ariza's pull-up jumper and scored.
The whole team of the Cavaliers has a good hand in this section.
However, looking back, Tang Tian broke through Shampert and leaned back to meet Whiteside's sudden stop.
The two teams fell into scoring mode in this quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, the score was 91-81, and the Pelicans took a double-digit lead.
Tang Tian took 2 rebounds in the first half, and the road to a consecutive triple-double was close at hand, but he failed to get more rebounds after that, and the number of rebounds at the end of the third quarter was only fixed at 6.
But in this quarter, he scored 21 points in a single quarter!
He's unstoppable on the offensive end!
At the end of the third quarter, his statistics came to 47 points, 6 boards, 12 assists and 4 steals!
Putting aside the triple-double, he scored a season-high in the third quarter, and tonight has properly locked in the data of 50+10!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the main forces on both sides rested off the court.
Tang Tian played a full section, although he was still able to eat physically, but after all, his back injury was not healed, and he also needed to rest.
Whiteside is still talking to the assistant coach and he seems to be in a good mood.
At the beginning of the third quarter, Tang Tian won 2 boards in a row, and he thought that Tang Tian was going to have three doubles in three quarters.
But as a result, there were only 6 rebounds at the end of the third quarter, and it seems that his pre-game words will be fulfilled, and Tang Tian's triple-double journey will end in Cleveland.
James sat on the sidelines, and he was really speechless when he heard the exchange between Whiteside and the assistant coach.
The grudge between him and Tang Tian is winning or losing, but Whiteside is in the data!
Just when he felt speechless, the situation on the field suddenly changed.
JR Smith entered the convulsion mode, hit consecutive shots, and in less than two minutes, he launched a personal 8-0 attack wave, and the Cavaliers also chased the difference to 2 points at once, forcing Stephens to be forced to take a timeout.
Seeing that the point difference was approaching, James also put aside the Whiteside affair for the time being and continued to focus on the court.
After the timeout, the Pelicans replaced Tang Tian early.
Stevens confirmed that Tang Tian's physical fitness was fine, and the injury was not affected, showing courage to replace him in advance.
His adjustment also worked, and Tang Tian came back and shook off Smith and threw a three-pointer to improve his personal score to 50 points.
Smith wanted to fight back, and faced Tang Tian's continuous shaking shots.
However, he shook Tang Tian and Tang Tianhuang, he was obviously not an effect.
He didn't shake Tang Tian away, but he still chose to shoot, and as a result, he almost made a three-way shot under huge defensive pressure!
There was a stirring at the scene.
Lu stood in place, taking deep breaths continuously, feeling that his blood pressure was a little high.
The Cavaliers have bad brains, and it's not just Whiteside.
