Chapter 1095: The Last Challenger (2/5!) )

In the first 33 games of the Pelicans, they played the Spurs twice, the Mavericks twice, the Rockets twice, and now they will play the Cavaliers immediately after playing the Warriors.

And both the Warriors and Cavaliers play on the road.

If you want to say that the alliance or Xiao Hua didn't mean it, it is estimated that no one will believe it.

The schedule was set by the league in the summer, and he really wanted to make it difficult for the Pelicans.

However, this is not necessarily a bad thing for the Pelicans, the difficult bones are gnawed first, and the later games can be leisurely and leisurely exercise benches.

The next game was two days later, and the Pelicans returned to New Orleans early the next morning.

Depending on the coaching staff, they schedule their daily training sessions in the afternoon and the next morning, and then fly to Cleveland in the afternoon.

The time is very tight, and the consecutive away games against strong opponents are very challenging for the players physically and mentally.

But the Pelicans' morale is still high.

This season, many people's eyes are on the Pelicans' four-star lineup, but they ignore Tang Tian's evolution again.

Tang Tian's current strength has made the Pelicans players more confident than ever.

Anyway, with Tang Tian here, it is not a problem what kind of situation and situation.

As long as everyone else plays their normal game, the Pelicans have another winning night.

Even if the opponent is the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers struggled a bit at the start of the season, but like the Warriors, they came out strong.

They have the highest record in the East, and have just won a wave of seven consecutive wins, outscoring their opponents by an average of 20+ per game.

After the previous 2K announced the updated ability value, the Cavaliers as a whole also increased.

James 98 is higher than Durant, second only to Tang Tian.

George 93, Irving 91, Whiteside and Wade also have 86 and 85 respectively.

They, like the Warriors, are also 3 90+.

To talk about the average, the Cavaliers' five-star lineup is even higher than the Warriors.

Although the Pelicans have high morale, it will take a lot of effort to win against the Cavaliers.

The day before the game, the Pelicans boarded a plane to Cleveland.

On the plane, the team members were still talking about Christmas.

Because there are competitions at Christmas, most of them spend the holidays with their families after Christmas.

"This Hassan!"

Tang Tianzheng was looking out the window to recuperate, and suddenly heard Walker on the side complaining.

He turned his head curiously.

Walker saw him turn his head and complained as he handed him the phone.

He listened and watched, and basically knew the reason for Butler's complaint.

"We're stronger than ever, and I'm sure we can beat anyone."

"Of course, this is the opportunity God has given us, and we will beat the Pelicans."

"It's cool to set a winning streak, but it's also cool to end your opponent's winning streak."

……

These words spoken in the interview by Whiteside are really personal in touch.

Compared with Green, it is even more unscrupulous.

Speaking of which, when Whiteside was in the Pelicans before, because of Tang Tian's pressure, his early performance was quite positive.

But after going to Miami, I began to let myself go, and when I went to Cleveland, I completely liberated my nature.

In this matter, I have to say that James's temper is really good, and no matter how much Whiteside tosses, he has never complained publicly.

When it comes to maintaining his personal image, he has done it to the extreme.

After reading it, Tang Tian returned the phone to Walker, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Green, Whiteside, these guys are really excessive."

Tang Tian didn't speak, and Walker continued to complain.

"This is a normal thing, and it is something we have to learn to accept."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

However, Walker didn't understand his words.

"You see the Warriors lost, Green wasn't scolded by many people, and the result for Whiteside is expected to be the same.

But that's where we are now.

Because we're strong enough, it's natural that we won, and it's big news that we lost. ”

Tang Tian then explained.

"It's a kind of fucked up."

Walker continued.

"You'll get used to it."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

Walker has been losing in the East for a few years and has long forgotten what it's like to win.

And even if he won the NCAA championship at the beginning, he fought back all the way.

That's why he's a little sensitive.

But Tang Tian has been with the Pelicans for a long time, and the Pelicans have lost more than they won in the past few seasons, and even had a season of 74 wins.

So he's been through this kind of thing a lot.

Walker is just getting started, and like he said, he'll get used to it as he wins more and more.

The day after arriving in Cleveland, the Pelicans-Cavaliers game officially kicked off at QuickLoan Arena.

Like Oakland, Cleveland is a city-wide party, and they want to win more than Bay Area fans!

In the locker room before the game, players from both sides were making final preparations for the game.

Stevens left the locker room after arranging some game details.

"Guys."

Tang Tian opened his mouth in a rare manner at this time.

As he spoke, all eyes of the others were on him.

The Pelicans' current locker room boss is Dior, but Tang Tian is the team boss and has the highest right to speak.

"I don't know if you remember the pre-season ESPN list."

"Of course I remember, third in the league."

Bojan said with a smile.

When he said this, he immediately caused a commotion from the others.

The third stalk in the league is not only known to the fans, but also to them.

Tang Tian also smiled.

He waited until everyone else was laughing before he spoke.

"At the start of the season, we beat the Bucks, then the Thunder, then the Rockets, then the Mavericks, then the Warriors......

Have you noticed any patterns in this? ”

Tang Tian continued.

"We're like challengers, fighting one by one, and now it's time to fight the final boss! If you win, you'll clear the level! ”

Bojan's response was quick.

His words also drew a heckle from his teammates.

This metaphor is very apt.

Tang Tian shook his head.

"We're not challengers, they're the last challengers, and now, we're going to have the last challenger."

As soon as Tang Tian's words fell, the players in the locker room were cheering and whistling excitedly.

The meaning, almost, but the meaning is completely different.

One is the challenger, just like the player in the game.

But the other one is the challenger, the boss, the boss who has killed countless players!

"Tonight, let's beat the last challenger and tell ESPN how their list is!

Tonight, let's set a new NBA winning streak and show everyone that this is our season!

Tonight, let's take the hope of defeating all players as a boss and tell them that they don't want to beat this game! ”

Tang Tian's next words made the team members shout excitedly.

Since coming to the Pelicans, Tang Tian has rarely poured chicken soup on his teammates like he did in the NCAA or during his time with the Spurs.

Especially in the past few years, the team has been strong, and there is no need for that.

But it's like a spear that hasn't been used for a long time, and if you wipe it, you can still smash Huanglong.

This bowl of chicken soup is great!
