Vol 3 Chapter 769: The Pelicans are strong!


Just before the game, news came out that Davis couldn't fight because of diarrhea and dehydration.
This is undoubtedly a thunderbolt for the Pelicans.
Tang Tian and Ariza could not fight enough. This time, there are three main players missing. The game has not yet started, and the Pelicans have lost more than half on paper.
But the interesting thing is that Stevens put Tsipping on the activation list, which means that everyone knows it.
In the anxiety of the Pelicans fans, the two teams officially started the game at the New Orleans Arena.
The fans were worried, but the Pelicans were impressed as soon as they came on.
The person who played this momentum was Jokic.
He opened the field with a three-pointer. After taking out Embidra, he used his speed advantage to break to the basket and score.
Embiid was reimbursed for his injured season last season, which is his rookie season.
He was educated by sophomore Jokic.
Jokic hung up rookie Embiid, and after experiencing a downturn in the last game, Boyan really found the feeling as he said.
He scored three three-pointers in the first quarter alone, and his outside touch was hot.
At the end of the first quarter, instead of being beaten by the Mavericks, the lack of Major General Pelicans led the Mavericks 5 points by 26-21.
After the ban in the second quarter, Pachulia came on the bench and hissed.
Interestingly, Tsingping was replaced by Stevens as a substitute for the fourth position.
If the league chooses a player who doesn't want to fight, in addition to James Johnson, who was once a professional boxer, it is Ci Shiping.
Johnson is professional, Tzu Shiping is notorious.
Pachulia played this honestly, even if he was elbowed under the basket.
After the last game by Tang Tian, ​​his nose was still tingling. He didn't have the courage to face Ci Shiping.
As a result, the Pelicans, who were originally inferior to the inferior team, further increased the score.
By the end of the half, the Pelicans had a 48-to-38 lead, which had led the Mavericks to a double-digit score!
In the second half, the Mavericks set off a crazy offensive led by Butler and Nowitzki.
However, with the outstanding performance of Jokic and Boyan, the Pelicans eventually extended the winning streak to 7 games at home with 97-93 Lectra Mavericks!
Jokic scored 26 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists in the triple-doubles, hitting the strongest game of his season.
Boyang scored 7 points and scored 23 points and 5 rebounds.
Tang Tian and Davis were not here, Jokic and Boyan stood up!
"The Spurs were a bit of luck in the last game, but the three main players in this game have not won the Mavericks. I can only say that the Pelicans are really strong now!"
"Boyan is underrated. His defense is not as bad as he thought, but his offense is much better than he thought. He is a top shooter!"
"It's not just Boyang, Dinwiddie and Aminu have done their job well in more time. The Pelicans can play, and there are really a lot of people who can play tough battles!"
"This is the effect of Stevens' expanded rotation. This is the performance of the strong team!"
...
The seven-game winning streak was taken down and outside support for the Pelicans reached a new one.
A streak without a major general, like the fans said on social media, the Pelicans have grown into a truly strong team.
There is also a new understanding of Stevens' ability to coach.
The Pelicans' decision to change head coach in the summer was praised by the media as one of the best operations in history.
The only thing that is not unexpected is Tang Tian, ​​who knows Stevens in history and has done similar things in the Celtics.
In fact, this thing is the system.
Similar to the Spurs, players who perform their part of the task well in the system will naturally play well and the team can win the game.
Winning the Spurs and Mavericks in a row has boosted the Pelicans' morale.
In the following week, Davis returned to the team, and they successively cut off the Suns, Kings and Wizards.
After the 25-game winning streak was ended, they ushered in another wave of 10-game winning streak!
Really like Stevens said, the end of the winning streak left the team members free of psychological burden, and they started a new wave of winning streak!
What's more gratifying is that Davis has averaged 27.5 points, 12.3 boards, 3.6 blocks and 2.1 steals in the past week, shooting 57% from the field!
With this performance, he won the best award of the first week of his career!
In the absence of Tang Tian, ​​Davis played an absolutely responsible performance!
But this is the fourth year of his career, and he should have done so.
Double happiness came to the door, after Davis won the best of the week, the Pelicans also ushered in Tang Tian's return.
The five-game suspension was said not to be long, but not short. Tang Tian left the stadium for nearly half a month.
In the first training class after coming back, a lot of media came on the scene.
"During your period of suspension, the team's continued winning streak will disturb you?"
Most reporters ask some general questions, but there are always people who like to be independent, and FOX Sports reporters have always been like this.
This is the standard "don't be scary to win, who is embarrassed lack of" question.
"Of course not. I see Davis' progress, I see Jokic's performance, I see Boyan's three-pointer, and I am happy for them."
Tang Tian was in a good mood and didn't quarrel with reporters, and these words were sincere.
If last season, or even last season, he didn't play, the Pelicans would definitely struggle, and Davis would not be able to play it.
Now that the strength of his teammates has improved, the Pelicans have a greater chance of impacting the championship, and he must be happy.
More interesting thing, the first game after Tang Tian's return was the Trail Blazers.
The Blazers ended their 25-game winning streak last time, and now the Pelicans welcome a new wave of 10-game winning streak, and the two teams play against each other again.
The Trail Blazers are still hot these days, and they have even beat the Thunder.
Playing against them, the game will certainly not be too easy.
But just like Tang Tian showed in the interview, the Pelicans now have a lot of self-confidence, and they have a good mentality against any kind of opponent.
The next night, the Pelicans ushered in a home game to welcome the Blazers' second season of the season.
Live shots were given to Lillard before the game.
The last time Lillard killed the Quartet to help the team win, and the scene of raising his hands to celebrate after the game is also vivid.
Now the two teams are fighting again, this is bound to be another fierce battle.
The game started quickly, but after the game started, it was different from what many people thought.
Perhaps because of not playing for a long time, Tang Tian seemed very excited after the opening.
He took the initiative to change Lillard, and went all out, Lillard was forced to make it difficult to have a cell phone meeting.
On the offensive end, he knew Davis was in good shape recently and gave up more shots to Davis.
Davis also lived up to expectations, offensively hitting Feng Lai and Pramley on the offensive end.
The Trail Blazers rely on double guns to stay competitive this season ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But after Lillard was locked up by Tang Tian, ​​Mikelham was not restrained by Lillard, plus Hollodi's defense, he There was no state of hitting.
The two shots were dumb, and the Blazers struggled.
The Blazers ended the Pelicans' 25-game winning streak in the previous game, but this game they have not had a chance since the opening.
Leading by 15 points at halftime, the difference of 25 points at the end of the third quarter has ended the game ahead of schedule.
In the end, the Pelicans scored in double figures with a 7-man victory over the Trail Blazers, 115-91, and 11 consecutive victories.
Davis continued his fiery touch and scored a team-high 23 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks.
Tang Tian played only three quarters in the first game after his comeback, and only made 11 shots. He effectively contributed 17 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks in 7 of 11 shots.
