Williams reached out and called a timeout.

Williams had been slow to call before, but this time it was a little early, it should be said to be very early.

I don't know if he saw the fans complaining about him on social media.

After calling a timeout, he turned around and called Aminu up.

When the players came down, he took out the tactical board to lay out the tactics.

After listening to this, Tang Tian knew that he was going to use a small lineup to fight against the opposite five small ones.

After Williams finished arranging the tactics, Tang Tian whispered to him for a while.

He raised some of his concerns.

Five small against five small, Tyronn Lue has also done this in history, but the effect is not good, and he is nicknamed a tactical genius by fans.

"We don't have a better choice, and it's going to work."

Williams is more insistent this time, after all, in the past two rounds, the Pelicans' five small have worked.

Williams insisted, and Tang Tian didn't say anything more.

Really speaking, the Pelicans' five small is better than the historical Cavaliers five small in that there is Davis, and his defensive ability on the interior is definitely much better than Love.

After a timeout, the Pelicans replaced Jokic with Aminu.

This substitution caused a commotion at the scene.

This is the first time they have seen a team play against the Warriors, and the Pelicans' substitution is very spiritual.

The others opened up space, and Tang Tian broke through to the basket with the ball and scored a goal.

Back on the defensive end, the Pelicans' five-small pace kept up with the Warriors' infinite air cuts, and Thompson's air cut layup was directly blocked by Davis.

Davis also took advantage of the defensive rebound.

After a timeout, the Pelicans performed well.

Live footage to Williams on the sidelines.

Williams had a smile on his face.

His choice looked set to turn the tide of the battle.

Soon, though, the Pelicans' five-small weaknesses were exposed.

They didn't respond well enough in the defensive round, giving Thompson a big open opportunity, and the latter hit a straight three-pointer.

The five small need a very big tacit understanding on the defensive end, and the Pelicans use it less, which is really lacking.

And after the pace of the game was fast, the Warriors revived their offensive state in frequent offensive and defensive transitions, and the Pelicans slowly began to be unable to parry.

In this quarter, the Warriors beat the Pelicans 35-22, and the difference in points reached 16 points after the third quarter.

The Pelicans frantically chased points in the final quarter under the leadership of Tang Tian, but ultimately lost 100-110.

The Splash Brothers made a total of 13 three-pointers and combined for 50+.

Tang Tian once again scored 33 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists.

After the first two games of the Western Conference finals, the Pelicans fell behind 0-2, which is really going straight into hell mode.

At the press conference after the game, Draymond Green was also in a good mood, and when asked by reporters what he thought about the next game, he answered very simply.

"We're going to sweep them and what we're going to do this year is to prove ourselves and show everybody what we're capable of."

The Warriors' regular season record exploded, but they have always been looked down upon by the outside world as dark horses.

Now that they haven't tasted defeat in the playoffs, Green's answer is also a way to express morale.

But for Pelican fans, it's a pretense.

Green, this is really looking at the Pelicans like a rookie.

But it can't be helped, the NBA is based on results, and if the Pelicans can't make effective adjustments in the back, a sweep is not impossible.

After all, the rocket in front of it is really not bad in strength, but it was swept away.

Green is the kind of guy I want to pretend to be forced, you're angry but you can't do anything about me.

Fans were buzzing after the game.

"Williams is really a tactical genius, five small and five small, isn't this looking for his own death!"

"Williams is a good coach, but his coaching ability is really poor, and the Pelicans will have to consider changing coaches in the summer!"

"It's really hard for the Pelicans to get to the Finals, although I also know it's hard for them to play the Warriors, but I didn't expect it to be like this!"

"I really want to beat Green, that kind of smugness, the Pelicans lost to the Splash Brothers and not him!"

"But there's no way, I feel like it's really hard for the Pelicans to win a game with the Warriors at this level!"

……

The next day, Durant, who was recovering from an injury, posted a personal tweet.

"Draymond Greene, 'Awesome Gesture'"

Durant and Curry have a good relationship, coupled with his feud with Tang Tian, he naturally supports the Warriors.

Green's pretending words resonated with him.

Once upon a time, the Thunder team in the four youth period also had such strength.

On the same day, the league announced the final ownership of the regular season MVP for the 2014~2015 season.

Curry finally got 33.44% of the votes, beating Tang Tian (29.69%) and James (16.33%) to be elected MVP.

It was also Curry's first career MVP trophy.

This series of events has attracted a lot of heated discussions among fans on social media.

"Holy! What the heck! Don didn't even win MVP?! ”

"The Warriors have a better record!"

"! The Warriors only won 7 more games than the Pelicans, but Tang Tian's data exploded Curry! ”

"That's right, there was data last year, and the record was a little worse, okay, everyone admitted, this year's record, the data are there, and it's not MVP?!"

"It's really unreasonable, hasn't someone analyzed it before, Tang has a record and data this season, and he is also one of Nike's top brands, and he won the MVP?"

"People are not as good as the league, and the league obviously wants to support the Warriors more!"

"Now the Pelicans are really cold, and I was expecting them to rely on this MVP to boost morale and win one game later, but now it looks like most of them are going to be swept."

"The Warriors have the right time this season, and I feel like they're going to win the championship 16-0."

……

After the first two games, the Pelicans returned to New Orleans.

The 2-0 deficit was the hardest they had since they made the playoffs, and even harder than the big score was that they didn't even know how to win.

In addition, Tang Tian regretfully passed by the MVP, which was a blow to the team's morale.

was swept away, not only from the outside world, but also within the Pelicans team There are people who think this way.

There are some things that you can only choose to accept if you can't resist.

Of course, Tang Tian was not included among these people.

After Tang Tian returned to New Orleans, he began to continue to study the video of the game.

Because of the five-on-five match in the last game, Williams was questioned by the outside world no less than Lu in history.

Tang Tian also questioned, but after playing down, he found that the Pelicans' five small teams were really much better than the five small knights in history.

If the team can use it more next season and build up a tacit understanding on the defensive end, the five small can also be a style of play.

But it is also obvious that it will definitely not be able to fight five small now.

"Details, details."

Tang Tian looked at it, and his mind unconsciously flashed what the two had talked about when he and Jokic communicated before.

Soon, he came up with an idea, and perhaps the only way the Pelicans could play the Warriors right now.
