Chapter 1073: Dream Back to 2011 (First Update!) )
"Huh!"
However, as soon as their idea came to them, Tang Tian hit a dry pull-up three-pointer from the outside to stop the bleeding for the Pelicans.
Walker and Davis didn't score in a row, and Tang Tian began to take over the right to fire.
Returning to the defensive end, Butler also stepped up his defensive intensity against Harden.
Walker and Davis aren't in shape, but the Pelicans still have Don and Butler.
Harden's breakaway step back was distracted by Butler, and Dedmon defended the defensive rebound.
The Pelicans played a defensive counterattack, Tang Tian received the ball and connected the two, and scored a light pick-and-roll.
After a 5-0 spurt, the score became 9-12.
The Pelicans are already trailing by just three points!
Walker and Davis' blocking failed, and the Pelicans began to show their strongest hole cards!
Tang Tian turned around and leaned back in the bag to hit;
Tang Tian dribbled with a low body, crossed steps, stopped urgently, pulled out and then advanced;
2+1 after Tang Tian broke through to the basket confrontation;
……
About 10 minutes into the quarter, the Pelicans dominated the game and led the Rockets by five points at 21-16.
Tang Tian scored 12 points in a row in just five minutes, showing the true character of the first person in the league.
At this time, the two sides entered the rotation one after another.
Stevens' rotation was very different from the previous game, as he replaced Walker and Tang Tian off the court and left Davis and Butler on the court.
Walker and Davis's blocking didn't work, and he was very decisive and took the two apart directly.
Butler and Davis contributed more energy on the defensive end, hitting back-to-back defensive counter-attacks.
However, Bojan was a bit unlucky, and was whistled for three consecutive fouls in two minutes.
Although the number of substitute fouls is not as much to control as the main team, this time the number is a bit more.
At the end of the first quarter, the Pelicans still led the Rockets 27-22.
Although the score was behind, both the Rockets players and the fans at the Toyota Center were extremely excited.
They, and the Pelicans are deadlocked!
This is something that neither the Bucks nor the Thunder have ever done!
Their idea is right, the lineup is not how strong it is on paper, but the most suitable!
They really have a chance to pull the Pelicans off tonight!
Section 2 Substitute Transition Section.
On the Rockets' side, D'Antoni asked Paul to lead the team on the court.
Paul, Gordon, Gerald Green, Bamot and Zhou Qi.
On the Pelicans' side, Stevens fielded an interesting lineup.
Because Bojan had already committed three fouls, he didn't let Bojan play again, but he didn't let Siakam play the No. 3 position either.
Walker, Lamb, Tang Tian, Siakam, Harrell!
One interesting thing is that Stevens unknowingly brought the CTA Trident into the game!
The fans at the scene didn't react much, but some Kangda fans on the hotline instantly climaxed.
After Walker joined and Lamb was traded to the Pelicans, they were waiting for that moment.
I didn't expect that they were waiting for the second game!
When the three of them wore the same team uniforms, they felt like they were dreaming back to March Madness 2011!
In the second quarter, the Pelicans attacked first.
Walker held the ball over half the court, and Tang Tian took the initiative to come up and make a block for him.
Just this scene has made the Kangda fans on the hotline climax again.
After Tang Tian became the first person in the alliance, others were blocking him.
But now he's blocking Walker!
I'm afraid only Walker will let him take the initiative to block and dismantle!
One block, one demolition, Walker burst in with the ball, and Tang Tian walked out.
Team Rocket didn't dare to wrap it up.
Walker hits Green one-on-one and accelerates past his trademark low-handed layup!
The familiar feeling made him feel back!
Walker threw an eyebrow at Tang Tian after scoring the goal, and the two were full of tacit understanding.
The Rockets' offense, Paul and Zhou Qi blocked and dismantled inside.
The quality of Zhou Qi's blocking and dismantling is not high, and when Paul shoots this ball, he is interfered with by Harrell, and the ball smashes out of the frame in front of the front.
Siakam protects defensive rebounds!
The Pelicans played a direct defensive counterattack, Tang Tian and Walker both flew out at the same time, and Siakam threw the ball to Walker, who was closer.
Walker took two steps and made a direct long pass, Tang Tian accelerated after receiving the ball, and threw away Paul, without giving the opponent any chance to make small movements, and directly split the dunk with one hand.
"Bang!"
Tang Tian's dunk shook the hoop and buzzed.
A powerful buckle!
"Basketball at UConn!"
"Kangda line!"
"Connecticut Huskies!"
……
The Kangda fans on the hotline have already begun to chant in unison.
One Walker, one Tang Tian, the blocking and fast attack of the two, these are distant memories for them, but now they appear in front of them again!
It's really exciting!
Gordon's three-point shot in the front court was deflected by Tang Tian's interference.
Harrell defends the defensive rebound.
The Rockets retreated in time this time and did not give the Pelicans a chance to play a direct defensive counterattack.
Walker carries the ball to the front court to play position.
Tang Tian continued to raise the block.
One block and one dismantle, one inside and one outside, the same cooperation.
However, the Rockets made defensive adjustments this time, and they first used a double to hit Walker.
Then when Walker returned the ball to Tang Tian, Green on the weak side switched defenses, and Gordon was ready to save again.
It's the equivalent of making up for the defensive pressure with a defensive rotation.
But this is tantamount to giving Tang Tian a chance to fight one, and there is still a lot of risk.
However, Tang Tian didn't play, he passed the ball without looking at people, and threw the ball directly to Lamb!
Lamb also has a tacit understanding, habitually reaching out to catch the ball, jumping up and shooting directly.
An empty three-pointer!
The ball crosses the air in a spiral arc.
"Huh!"
Basketball hollow into the net!
Walker, Don Tian, Lamb!
The trio took turns to score, and the Kangda Trident showed its strength on the NBA stage!
Many UConn fans on the hotline cried with excitement.
It's really classic!
Although in 2014, Kangda also won the championship under the leadership of Napier, but it is far from the legend since 2011.
You must know that in 2011, UConn defeated a number of seeded teams and counterattacked all the way to the finals!
It was also named the most incredible team performance in the last two decades by the NCAA.
Now, after 6 years, they can see the combination of the UConn Trident again on the NBA court!
Dream back to 2011!
The Pelicans are starting to gain momentum.
Paul drove to the basket with the ball, but Walker gave him a big fight.
Paul used a small hidden move to push Walker away to create space for himself, but at the moment he made a move.
Tang Tian rose from behind him.
"Bang!"
A pegboard hat that covers the sky!
He also took advantage of the situation to grab a defensive rebound!
The Pelicans fight back!
Walker took the lead.
At this time, a different place appeared from the Kangda period, Tang Tian did not look for Napier, and directly threw him in the backfield.
Walker comfortably received the ball, accelerated to the frontcourt, and scored a light layup!
9 to 0!
In the second quarter, Stevens sent the Constanta Trident on the court, and the Pelicans played a wave and directly stretched the difference to 14 points!
