Chapter 954: 9 Consecutive Triple Doubles!

The Pelicans signed with Dio quickly, but Dio didn't come to the Pelicans quickly.

The guy who was originally traded to the Jazz by the Spurs and traveled directly from San Antonio to Utah on a road trip to Utah has been reporting to the team four days after the Pelicans played games against the Kings.

This is very much in line with his personal style of enjoying life.

However, the Pelicans are not in a hurry, the team rotation is stable, and they don't need Dio to put out the fire.

After passing a personal medical examination, Dio carried a small satchel and entered the Pelicans locker room under the leadership of Temples.

He's now officially a member of the Pelicans.

Smiling and greeting new teammates, and popping up some harassy words from time to time, Dio doesn't look like an NBA player, but like an old prostitute.

At the beginning, the Spurs were three sassy, Ginobili was a bright sass, Duncan was sullen, and Dio was a coquette.

"Don, are you free for the night?"

"Not available."

Dior asked Tang Tian seriously, and Tang Tian replied to Dior seriously.

The two looked at each other and laughed after asking and answering, and then hugged each other vigorously.

Tang Tian is more nostalgic, the Spurs' teammates at the beginning, he will contact him now when he has time.

Now that Dio is his teammate again, he's in a pretty good mood.

Looking at the smile on Tang Tian's face, Demps felt comfortable in his heart.

Tang Tian's current influence is unparalleled, and leaving Tang Tian is his biggest goal as a general manager.

Now that the 15th person can please Tang Tian, this signing is worth it.

After Dior put down his luggage, he went on to participate in daily training with the team.

As a veteran of the league, he is familiar with the team's tactical system very quickly.

And Stevens is also very courageous, and there was a period when Tang Tian and Dior were present at the same time during the full-court confrontation.

Dio also showed the tacit understanding between him and Tang Tian during his time at the Spurs, and his continuous passes made Tang Tian score easily.

After the training session, Stevens also pulled Dior alone for a while, and it was obvious that he was satisfied with Dior's form and performance.

There is an old man in the family, and there is a treasure.

The Pelicans now have two veterans with playoff experience.

The day after Dio reported to the team, the Pelicans were at home and played against the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies, whose strength has slipped since losing Conley in the summer, are now trying to make the playoffs and have just won four straight games in the past.

That form was also evident in the first half of the game.

Relying on Marc Gasol's excellent play on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, the Grizzlies tied the Pelicans at 45 at halftime.

The Pelicans shot just 31 percent from three-point range in the first half, and the Grizzlies' expanded defense left their shooters cold.

However, in the second half, the situation on the court changed abruptly, and Tang Tian began to attack the Grizzlies basket with all his might, playing a wave of personal 8-0 attacks.

The Grizzlies were forced to shrink their defense, and that gave the Pelicans a chance from the outside.

Tang Tian continuously sent wonderful passes, Holiday , Ariza, and Davis took turns to hit the outside line.

In this quarter alone, the Pelicans shot 5 of 8 from beyond the three-point line, and the difference was stretched to 15 points in one fell swoop.

The Grizzlies fought back in the fourth quarter, but ultimately couldn't catch up and lost 86-100.

Mark Gasol had a quasi-triple-double of 27 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists.

On the Pelicans' side, five players scored double-doubles, and Tang Tian scored a triple-double of 22 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

It wasn't a lot of points for him, but it was his 7th consecutive triple-double!

As the game continues, fans have begun to realize that Tang Tian has a chance to tie and even break Chamberlain's record of 9 consecutive triple-doubles!

Because of this, although it is the second half of the season, the Pelicans' game attention is only high!

After playing the Grizzlies and resting for two days, the Pelicans embarked on an away tour of the West.

Their first game was against the Jazz.

The Jazz continue to compete with the Thunder, Clippers, and Trail Blazers for the Western Conference playoff spot.

As the season draws to a close, the battle intensifies, and every remaining race is crucial for them.

Even against the defending champions, the league-leading Pelicans.

The last time the two teams fought fiercely until the last minute, the winner was decided, and the home game also gave the Jazz a lot of confidence.

As soon as the game started, they played with great momentum.

With high morale and excellent defense, they led the Pelicans 27-23 at the end of the first quarter.

High-intensity confrontations and hand-to-hand combat can be seen everywhere on the court, and the Jazz are like a red-eyed mad cow.

The physical exertion brought about by high-intensity confrontations has been greatly affected by veterans like David West.

He failed to grasp two consecutive opportunities in this quarter, and the Jazz also took the opportunity to play a wave of 4-0 offensive to stretch the difference to 8 points.

Stevens saw that things were wrong and replaced Dio, who was playing for the Pelicans for the first time.

Dio came on and hit a small hook shot, then the defense got stuck on Favors and grabbed the rebound.

Williams' throw missed, and he stuck Favors to get the offensive rebound, assisting Williams to score from close range.

In the two rounds after Dior came on the court, he fully demonstrated his attributes of "hook hand man" and "short rebounder".

Of course, more importantly, he played for the Jazz before this season and is familiar with the characteristics of the players on this team.

Relying on Dio's steady play, the Pelicans smoothly passed this bench transition.

When the main forces of the two sides returned, Tang Tian began to enter the state, ignoring the Jazz's defense and scoring continuously, fully embodying the role of a superstar.

The Pelicans fought back to beat the Jazz 32-22 in the quarter, which in turn led the Jazz by six points.

In the second half, the Jazz adjusted their defensive strategy and began to contain Tang Tian, which also gave him the opportunity, and he frequently sent second passes to assist his teammates to score.

At the end of the quarter, although the Jazz were still tenacious, the Pelicans still stretched the deficit to 15 points.

In the final quarter, the physical fitness of both sides declined, and the sound of iron on the court continued, and Tang Tian's legend was fully reflected in this situation.

He didn't drop in points, rebounds, and assists, leading the Pelicans to continue to suppress the Jazz, and successfully stretched the deficit to 25 points in the first five minutes of the final game.

The tournament ended early.

The Jazz's last stalemate with the Pelicans had a lot to do with Tang Tiangang's injury.

Now that Tang Tian has recovered from injury, the result of the game is much worse than Utah fans imagined.

The Pelicans finally defeated the Jazz 108-88 and ushered in an eight-game winning streak.

Tang Tian played three and a half quarters and scored a triple-double of 30 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists.

It was also his eighth consecutive triple-double!

And that's not the end of it.

Two days later, the Pelicans played the Clippers in Los Angeles.

The Pelicans defeated their opponent 113-103, and Tang Tian once again cut a triple-double of 35 points, 10 boards and 12 assists!

Including this one, his consecutive triple-double matches have reached nine! Equalled Chamberlain's record of consecutive triple-doubles!

If he can get another triple-double in his next game against the Thunder, he will break this 49-year record!
