The Pelicans guys are still very strict little by little to play, Arenas is still running without the ball, running up quickly from the baseline, using a little bit of speed change, throwing off Joe Johnson behind him, and then walking quickly to the top of the arc, at this time Oladipo at the top of the arc easily sent the basketball to Arenas's hands.

Arenas quickly ran over to catch the ball, and Arenas, who received the basketball, got the basketball, and his whole body twisted like a water snake, swaying left and right.

Joe Johnson quickly caught up, seeing Arenas such a feint, he first moved to the left, and then moved to the right, one mistake on both sides, Joe Johnson himself almost fell, fortunately Joe Johnson's pace was quite fast, adjusted twice and did not fall, but at this time, Arenas had already dribbled the ball in one step, and then raised his hand directly, which was a three-point shot.

Arenas made a nice wobble to shake off Joe Johnson, and then followed up with a 3-pointer that also hit the Pelicans' basket.

The Nets really couldn't suppress the Pelicans' offense here, and the game between the two teams lasted until 8 minutes and 46 seconds in the first quarter, and the Nets did not conquer the Pelicans' lineup, and the two teams fought to 23-25, and the Pelicans still led by 2 points.

At this time, Anthony was extremely depressed, but there was no way, his team had really tried its best, and it was definitely not a substandard performance, but just like that, he couldn't beat these people from the Pelicans.

When the time comes, no matter what the situation is on the court, they will start to make substitutions, and the Pelicans have this kind of capital, he doesn't care about winning or losing, so naturally he doesn't care about how to make substitutions.

The Pelicans made quick substitutions here, bringing on Thornton, DJ Augustin, and Ronnie Brewer. replaced Al Jefferson, Arenas, and Caron Butler, and in an instant the Pelicans became a small lineup, and the Pelicans obviously had no discipline in this lineup, except for the defenders who were replaced as swing people, this lineup did not have any rules at all.

The Nets originally didn't want to make substitutions, but seeing that the Pelicans had already been replaced, the Nets could only start to make substitutions, and the Nets replaced them with a full bench lineup. Alan Anderson, Livingston, Kirilenko, Mizatelitovic, Mason Plumlee.

The Nets switched to a full bench lineup, and the Pelicans still used their 12-man team to barely play, at which time Payton said:

"If the Pelicans have two more people, it would be perfect to put together a rotation lineup, and maybe we can beat the Nets."

"Shh......h

Sean Kemp heard Payton say this, stretched out a finger and made a silent gesture, and then whispered:

"Don't let the Nets hear our wishes, or they're going to get angry."

Sean Kemp's pose was funny, and the fans at Payton and New Orleans Arena burst out laughing. Kidd and Anthony naturally heard such a scene on the sidelines of the court, but both of them looked unusually unhappy.

This is the Pelicans bullying people, and even these 12 people want to win. Kidd jumped up and yelled at his teammates:

"Give me a good fight, you guys. Listen to what they're all talking about, and listen to it. ”

Kidd was angry, and so were the Nets players on the court, who were treated as garbage or scrap by the Pelicans, and they didn't look up to themselves at all.

The Nets were furious, but the Pelicans players and fans didn't feel anything, because they lacked any sense for today's game.

The Pelicans' possession of the ball, now the Pelicans are replaced by small swing people, so when it comes to the half of the Nets, the space is particularly huge, there is space all around, space is like this, if you have a particularly big man in your team, the inside line will be crowded, and there will be no space in the whole half.

But if it's a small team, the space will be unusually huge, and if the players can open up the space, then the space will be even greater.

These Pelicans are not very good at playing small ball, and the Pelicans have not let these people practice, so it is more chaotic, but at this time there is no problem with chaos, and Oladipo immediately became active on the court, because the remaining few people are his youngest and most energetic.

He himself immediately became active.

As soon as Oladipo was active, he immediately ran into the Nets' interior line, because he saw that the Nets' interior height had been lowered a lot, and it was a good time for him to attack.

Oladipo does still have some brains, and his timing is also good, the Nets' outside defensive combination, Alan Anderson is not in good health, Livingston is not strong, Oladipo sped up his pace and drilled between these two people.

Oladipo, who came over, rushed directly to the basket, he thought that with his body, even if he scored, he would win a foul, but as soon as he rushed to the inside of the Nets, Oladipo himself didn't make any moves, but Mason Plumlee, who rubbed it, fell to the ground.

This guy actually made a foul for Oladipo in front of Oladipo, and this time Oladipo lost money.

And the referee at home did not give Oladipo face, and directly gave the Nets free throws, Mason Plumlee stood on the free throw line and began to make consecutive free throws, the first free throw, Mason Plumlee shot gloriously.

But as soon as the second shot was shot, it was a big distance, giving the Pelicans and the Nets a chance to grab rebounds under the basket, and the Nets now have one Mizatelitovic left inside, and Henson is the most lethal against such a soft guy.

Henson jumped up and snatched the basketball into his hand, then turned around and threw the basketball out, at which time Oladipo, who was already running wildly, received the basketball and was running wildly.

In the half of the Nets, Oladipo suddenly stopped suddenly, and after stopping, Oladipo quickly passed the ball and ran over to Thornton, who was in the space of the three-point line, and received a three-point shot from the basketball.

Thornton's three-point long-range shot, the opportunity is good, but it is still iron, it seems that Thornton's generation is very fate with iron, Thornton's basket is iron. Rebounding suddenly became a focal point for the two teams again.

Livingston, who was under the basket, was going to get up directly and easily receive the basketball, but as soon as he jumped up, he felt two hands pressed on his hands, and both hands pressed himself, and a quick dunk on his head was completed at once.

It turned out that the person who ran over to complete this attack was none other than DJ Augustin, who was hardly visible in the team, but whenever it was revealed, it was very surprising.

This time it was the same, as soon as the basketball flew out, it was flown over by DJ Augustine and pressed into the basket of the Nets.

And DJ Augustin also did it with ease. What Livingston couldn't stand the most was that after this guy who was only 1.8 meters completed the air dunk, he left his half without even looking at himself.

Look down on people? Livingston was also angry and immediately used his ability to score in the Pelicans' half.

The Pelicans' players are not inferior to their opponents when the main team is on the court, and now that the bench has started to play, they are still not inferior to the opponent, Kidd is looking very anxious outside the court, how can his team not be able to suppress the Pelicans, who usually don't play much.

Kidd was in a hurry, but this time. Kidd's assistant coach reminded Kidd that we should focus on the second half, because when the Pelicans are short of personnel and rotate into the second half, their players will inevitably be worse than our players. We don't have to do it now, we can wait until that time to start doing it.

Kidd only calmed down a little at this time, and he did fight with the Pelicans, who lacked major generals, and still needed to reach the second half. However, this also makes Kidd very angry, and playing with such a team, he can't use the team's strength to suppress the opponent. It's really an unspeakable nest fire.

The Pelicans and the Nets' bench players also played a close game, and the first quarter ended with the Pelicans and Nets reaching 29-30, and the Nets' bench players moved the score back by one point.

This gave Kidd a lot of hope, and in the second quarter, the benches of both teams returned to the court, and Van Gundy deployed players to replace Henson with Caron Butler, and the Pelicans became a completely small lineup when the game continued.

The five little men on the court ran fast, and they didn't want a little inside line, but the Pelicans played fiercely, and these people took turns firing without any scruples, and after 2 minutes, Kidd couldn't stand it, and his team was beaten by the Pelicans with a 9-0 high. Tide.

He could only call a timeout, and then brought on the main players, Anthony and Joe Johnson at the same time, to enhance the defensive and mobile ability of the perimeter, and the two men showed immediate effect when they arrived on the court.

The Pelicans also wanted to launch a quick offense, Thornton and Oladipo formed a fast-break duo, Thornton hit the ball and withstood Ronnie Brewer in front of him and wanted to force a layup, but he suppressed Joe Johnson and flew up alone, and as soon as the basketball shot, Anthony in the back immediately killed.

A flying block in the air fanned Thornton's basketball out at once, which was an extremely wonderful block, and Anthony almost exerted his body to the limit.

Anthony blocked like this, the momentum of the Nets soared, Alan Anderson took the basketball, reflexively went back to the fast break, and the two passes went to the hands of Mizatelitovic outside the three-point line, Mizatelitovic is white, specializing in throwing three-point shots, the basketball is in hand, a shot is out, Mizatelitovich's three-point shot accurately hit the Pelicans' basket.

Now, the Nets have finally played a bit of a dominant basketball game, and at this time, Van Gundy finally remembered that he was not here to see the excitement, but to direct the game.

Van Gundy calmly replaced Ronnie Brewer with Al Jefferson on the sidelines, Brewer played little role in this kind of game, and Anthony who he wanted to defend today needed team defense, but now the Pelicans lineup has no mature team defense at all.

The Pelicans replaced Al Jefferson, who is still very short in height, but Al Jefferson is an interior after all, and he and Kaloon Butler are actually enough to play Mizatelitovic and Mason Plumlee.

The Pelicans replaced Al Jefferson, and Oladipo drilled into the interior of the Nets, and he couldn't shoot and directly distributed the basketball to the hands of Al Jefferson on the side.

After Al Jefferson got the basketball, he saw that Mason Plumlee was in front of him, and Mason Plumlee was standing in the reasonable collision zone, and Mason Plumlee would also use fake falls. But in reality, Mason Plumlee's defensive skills are okay, but his body is a little worse.

Now that he was in the reasonable collision zone, Al Jefferson was not welcome, he wanted to compete with Mason Plumlee, so Al Jefferson, who got the basketball, hit the basket in one step.

This time it really hit it, without any feints, without any technical movements, just holding the basketball with both hands and hitting Mason Plumlee, comparing strength, bounce, and confrontation. It's to attack alive.

Al Jefferson's offense is a bit unreasonable, but Al Jefferson's goal is this, getting the basketball is to hit Mason Plumlee's body, Mason Plumlee saw such a savage foul, his first reaction was to fake a fall.

But the current situation does not allow it, he is actually standing in the reasonable collision zone, how can he stand in it, this is really a huge failure, Mason Plumlee after seeing himself standing in the reasonable collision zone. He instinctively jumped to his feet to block his opponent.

But when he jumped up, he found that this Al Jefferson didn't look tall on the ground, suggesting that flying was completely a little bully with a hard body. The ability to bounce, the ability to dominate the air, and the flexibility of this guy is also good.

After colliding with Mason Plumlee in the air, his body was still able to twist twice. It was just a couple of twists of the body, and this guy actually bypassed his arm after twisting and pushed the basketball to the basket in the back.

That's something Mason Plumlee doesn't want to see. He immediately shot to destroy, his hand touched Al Jefferson's wrist, and Al Jefferson's basketball was already shot, the basketball gently rubbed into the basket, and the referee's whistle sounded.

Mason Plumlee usually causes fouls on others, and this time he himself tasted that fouls were imminent.

Al Jefferson stood proudly at the free-throw line and steadily put a free throw into the Pelicans' basket.

At this time, Kidd saw that his inside line was still not good, and he immediately replaced Mizatelitovic and replaced Lopez on the court.

The Nets have almost replaced the main forces, but the Pelicans' lineup has not changed, and it seems that the Pelicans' lineup is almost the same whether it changes or not, no matter how it changes, it is a mess, you can see what they are going to do, but when you get to the court, you will immediately find that the Pelicans are such a messy lineup, and it is difficult to defend.

Li Feng sat on the sidelines to cheer for Al Jefferson, but fortunately Big Al was still there, otherwise the inside line would have to rely on himself.

Now that Anthony has been on the court, the Nets' offense is back in Anthony's hands, and Anthony is charging from the three-point line and toughly resisting the Pelicans' interior layup.

At this point, Anthony's individual talent was on full display, with the speed of a guard and the body of a power forward, as well as excellent technique.

The Pelicans took a hit, but their nerves were as tenacious as the expression of their head coach Van Gundy, and they were unaffected by the fact that they launched a fast break from under the basket, and Thornton dribbled towards the Nets' half.

The Pelicans hit the Nets on a chasing offense, and Joe Johnson, who was defending Thornton, pulled the ball into Thornton's hand halfway, and Thornton dodged the basketball to D.J. Augustin's hand, and D.J. Augustin was already under the basket.

At this time, DJ Augustine is the best offensive point, Anthony also eyed DJ Augustin, and turned around to block DJ Augustin, but Anthony's was also less than DJ Augustin, because this guy didn't think of attacking himself at all, and got the basketball and threw it directly behind him.

Thornton, who followed up from behind, rushed up and received the basketball is a violent dunk, and the basketball was slammed into the basket of the Nets.

Thornton's dunk is very beautiful, such a slam dunk made the Nets ugly, the Nets immediately organized an attack, Anthony rushed over to get the basketball, and the rest of the Nets immediately opened up space for Anthony.

Anthony in the left half and Thornton heads-up, Anthony got the basketball and looked at Thornton in front of him, his heart was a little bitter, he. Milk. The milky Li Feng is still sitting in the chair, and he needs to fight to the death with the Pelicans' bench players.

This is really an irony. Anthony started suddenly, and broke through to the middle step by step, Thornton only resisted Anthony, but he really didn't expect that Anthony's body really wasn't a normal person, he pushed the ball up, directly pushed Thornton away with his body, and then easily made a layup in the air.

Anthony gradually began to attack more, and he began to exert his power, and Peyton asked Sean Kemp next to him very interestingly:

"Hey. Old man, do you think the Nets can overwhelm our Pelicans' crippled team this quarter, I guess they still can't, don't you think? ”

Sean Kemp knows that Payton is proud now, because the team he likes is playing very well now, and the opponent can't easily overwhelm the Pelicans even if the main team is all-out.

What supports the Pelicans to play like this is not the superman players on the team, but the teamwork spirit in this team. Now the Pelicans' lineup is a mess, but on the court, these guys are still playing in an orderly manner.

Van Gundy seemed to have estimated Oladipo's body at this time, and replaced Brewer. Brewer is a very pure defensive player, and he definitely spends a lot more time practicing defense than shooting.

When such a person appeared on the court, the Pelicans' backcourt configuration became point guard DJ Augustin, scoring guard Ronnie Brewer, and small forward Thornton. This backcourt combination is something that no one person can organize.

The average team is bound to have a headache, but the Pelicans rushed up, even if there was no playmaker in the team. There wasn't even a clear point of attack, but the team was well organised.

Brewer drilled into the paint area of the Nets with a breakthrough that he was not good at, and then passed the basketball to DJ Augustin outside, DJ Augustin reversed the ball to Thornton's hand, and Thornton passed the ball to the hand of Kaloon Butler in the bottom corner, and the basketball shifted most of the Nets' three-point line, and finally the basketball was thrown out of Kaloon Butler's hand.

A three-point shot of Kaloon Butler, at this time, after Kidd replaced the interior combination of Lopez and Mason Plumlee, their interior line was consolidated, but they were also a little defensive on the outside, you must know that Kaloon Butler is not a forward player in the general sense, this guy is a pervert.

The Pelicans shot such a basketball, which completely reflects the Pelicans' overall basketball literacy and team spirit, Anthony is a little anxious at this time, he doesn't plan to wait until the second half to crush the Pelicans.

He now ran to the baseline and received the basketball, and Anthony, who received the basketball, quickly advanced towards the Pelicans' halfcourt, and Anthony was more powerful once he ran here.

Thornton wanted to lead the defense of Anthony, but Anthony, who got the basketball, immediately showed his high technical level, faced Thornton with a back dribble, and jumped in front of Thornton.

Passing Thornton, Anthony immediately became extremely dangerous, and he lunged towards the Pelicans' half.

At this time, the Pelicans' Brewer was originally a professional defensive player, and he immediately realized that he couldn't do this, so he blocked Anthony for the first time, and then Thornton also chased up to form a two-man defense to keep Anthony.

Anthony advanced to the Pelicans' three-point line, and this kind of two-man defense was a bit of a headache, and at this time, Joe Johnson arrived in the back, Anthony stopped, picked up the basketball and shook it towards the rest, and made a pass feint, Thornton and Brewer were both attracted.

Both men looked back at Joe Johnson, but at this moment Anthony passed the basketball towards Mason Plumlee behind Joe Johnson, which turned out to be a fake pass, after Mason Plumlee got the basketball.

Crashed directly into the Pelicans' basket, where Anthony had deceived the Pelicans' defense in a row, and Mason Plumlee easily slammed the basketball into the Pelicans' basket with a two-handed dunk when he came up. (To be continued......)
