Pelicans starting lineup: starting center DeMarcus Cousins, starting power forward Anthony Davis, starting small forward Solomon Hill, starting point guard Hollis Thompson, starting point guard Jrue Holiday Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Needless to say, the twin towers of Cousins and Davis are more powerful, and the two are now averaging more points per game than the other dozen or so players on the team combined......

Basically, the New Orleans Pelicans are relying on the twin towers to support the game, and once one of the twin towers is restricted, it is difficult for the Pelicans to have any hope of winning.

Starting small forward Solomon Hill, who played an average of 28.7 minutes per game, scored 6.2 points, shot 39.1% from the field, and 34% from three-point range.

With a low shooting percentage and a poor defense, it's easy to imagine how bad the Pelicans' roster is for such a player to be used by the Pelicans.

Starting point guard Hollis-Thompson, this is the backcourt player that the Pelicans got from the Philadelphia 76ers, and even the Philadelphia 76ers, a backcourt player who is extremely lacking in backcourt players, can imagine Hollis Thompson's strength......

Not every player named Thompson can be called a soup god, some can only be called the Eight Sages, and some are unknown and can only be a soy sauce party......

Hollis Thompson is undoubtedly a soy sauce party, but the Warriors' Klay Thompson plays the same position, but the data is very different......

But in the Pelicans' poor lineup, Hollis Thompson actually got the starting position, averaging more than 20 minutes per game, scoring 3.3 points, shooting 27% from the field and 29% from three-point range......

At this level, the other teams in the top eight in the West, let alone substitutes, are lucky not to be cut......

In the starting lineup, in addition to the twin towers, the only bright spot is Zhu Holiday, before the formation of the twin towers, Holiday averaged 16+7.5 assists per game in the Pelicans, which is the second leader of the Pelicans.

But with the arrival of Cousins, Holiday has shown a huge shrinkage, averaging only 11.5 points and 7.3 assists per game in the post-All-Star weekend schedule, which is still the data obtained when the number of shots has hardly changed.

What's even more chilling is that Holiday originally averaged 3.2 turnovers per game, but in the second half of February, it nearly doubled to 5.5!

He averaged only 7.3 assists per game, but the number of turnovers reached 5.5, which is a bit scary to assist-to-turnover ratio.

It can also be seen from this that Holiday and the twin towers do not fit, if Holiday is replaced by Rondo, the effect will definitely be very ideal, first of all, Rondo's passing level is at least two grades higher than Holiday Holiday, but Rondo's projection level is a little embarrassing, but in the Pelicans team with twin towers, Rondo only needs to organize the offense and distribute his shooting opportunities to the twin towers with better offensive efficiency, and the Pelicans' overall offensive level must be improved by a notch.

However, it has reached the end of the regular season, and it is useless to talk about this, and after Cousins' contract expires this season, it is still a matter of whether to re-sign the Pelicans next season.

Perhaps, the twin towers, which have only been combined for a third of the season, will fall apart next season.

At the beginning of the game, Sun Dahei played against Cousins, he and Cousins fought once, although he couldn't completely restrict Thaddeus Young, but Cousins under Sun Dahei's defense, the score was definitely at least half smaller than his average points per game!

The Pelicans' tactics in the first quarter are very clear, that is, to pull away the play, as long as the five players reach the offensive round, none of them stand in the paint area, everyone knows that Sun Dahei's restricted area defense is the best in the league, Cousins has suffered a lot of losses under Sun Dahei's hands, so the purpose of their first quarter of the game is to pull Sun Dahei out of the restricted area.

Defending the new interior line has always been a headache for Sun Dahei, and Cousins has been floating on the outside in this game, not allowing Sun Dahei to continue to have the opportunity to sit on the inside.

In the first few offensive rounds, the Pelicans played well, relying on the strong individual ability of Davis, who played a few balls in a row, and the scores of the two sides basically remained equal.

However, the momentum did not last long, as Kerr called a short timeout and did not make any changes to the lineup, but instead changed the defensive focus.

Sun Dahei is still defending Cousins, and Durant is still defending thick eyebrows, but the defensive task of chasing eggs Green has changed, Kerr asked Green to focus more on the defensive focus of helping to defend thick eyebrows, anyway, it is almost difficult for Solomon Hill to get a chance to shoot, and Green does not need to spend too much energy to defend him.

Klay Thompson and Clark, although they remain in the same position, can return to the court and begin to switch defenses, with Townsend defending the Pelicans' main scoring point in the backcourt, Jonadi.

Tang Shen's defensive strength has always been underestimated, although it is not as good as Sun Dahei, Egg Chasing Green and Durant, but Tang Shen's defensive strength is definitely in the top ten in the position of scoring guard.

It is up to Tang Shen to limit the Pelicans' main scoring point in the backcourt, Ju Holiday, which means that the Pelicans' backcourt is basically useless, and they can only score through the twin towers.

However, Cousins was restrained by Sun Dahei, his scoring means are indeed very rich, but it is difficult to achieve the expected effect in front of Sun Dahei, after the first quarter of the game, Cousins made 6 shots in this quarter, but only scored 5 points, the offensive efficiency was greatly reduced, and the Pelicans could not be of great help on the offensive end.

And Davis, who is under the care of Durant and Egg-Chaser Green, does not have the scoring efficiency he started with......

When the Twin Towers were confined up, the New Orleans Pelicans were sentenced to death......

Halfway through the game in the third quarter, the Pelicans surrendered, although this game is full of importance, it can be described as a rehearsal for the first round of the playoffs, but the rehearsal is a rehearsal after all, the huge difference in strength between the two sides is here, and the Pelicans head coach saw that he lost the hope of winning, so he simply stopped playing......

Originally, the fans were expecting to see some highlights in this game, but Mao's highlights were not, which was extremely disappointing.

However, the huge difference in strength between the two sides is there, and the result of this game is also expected by the fans!
