Vol 4 Chapter 1403: Open Davis, Blackfaced Popovich

Davis has an extra penalty, and he played without a hit after the opening!
13 to 10!
The Pelicans lead the Spurs by 3 points!
This start is the first time since the series!
After the first quarter, the Pelicans led the Spurs 10 points 32-22.
The first quarter did not fall behind, but achieved a double-digit lead, which is also the first time since the Pelicans series!
At the end of the festival, fans at the scene cheered for the team in unison.
They really saw the possibility of winning!
However, back in the second quarter, Leonard debuted at the opening, bringing the Spurs to the score quickly.
The Pelicans 'lead so much for the first time has something to do with Davis' outstanding performance, but also has to do with Leonard's early exit.
Now that Leonard is back, I can clearly feel that the Spurs' mainstay is back.
Stevens rotated ahead of time and the two teams fell into a deadlock.
After halftime, the score on the court was 53 draws.
The Spurs overall strength is still better than the Pelicans.
The advantage established in the first quarter was wiped out at halftime. Following this rhythm, the Pelicans still have a great difficulty trying to win.
Even to maintain the current stalemate is challenging. You must know that Leonard is good at adjusting and he did not make a foul in the second quarter.
In the second half, the Pelicans no longer had the chance to miss Leonard like in the first quarter.
"I believe the Spurs will be the championship this season."
At the end of the halftime, even Kenny Smith couldn't help but express such emotions.
"Yes, the Pelicans performed well in the first half, but the Spurs still tied the score. They have a balance of offense and defense and have no weaknesses."
O'Neal nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the last team like this was the Pelicans. At that time, Don, Hollodi, Ariza, Davis, Jokic, they completed the championship."
Buckley followed.
"So they will win their championship just like the original Pelicans."
Kenny Smith's final conclusion is more conservative.
Because no one knows whether the alphabet brother will continue to evolve, or how high the upper limit of Dongqiqi is, or Tang Tian will come back soon.
There are too many variables in the future, but what they can judge now is that the Spurs are the most likely to win this season.
Just as they talked eloquently, sharp-eyed fans noticed that Tang Tian went to the Pelican's locker room, and he returned again when he was halfway through the intermission.
No one knows what he did.
Back at halftime, Stevens made another change, replaced Gaston with Brogden and pushed Durant to the second position.
This completely allowed Durant to play the role of Tang Tian.
From this change, we can also see the pressure that Stevens is bearing. He also knows the reason for the lead in the first quarter, and the result in the second quarter.
Continuing the rhythm of the first half, the high probability of losing will be the Pelicans, actively seeking to change bets, which seems to be his style.
The Spurs came back in the second half to take the lead, and Leonard shot with a cover from Aldridge.
He continued his excellent form in the first half.
Looking back, Durant didn't make a single shot for George.
After all, Durant can't take George as the air. He has a limited advantage in playing George one-on-one.
There was a restlessness on the sidelines.
One offense and one defensive, despite the Pelicans making adjustments, the Spurs took the initiative as quickly as the opening half of the second half.
The Pelicans changed the situation in the first half with Davis' excellent performance and Leonard's two fouls.
But it is difficult to have such a second chance.
Leonard continued to call the pick-and-roll in the frontcourt.
Just then, Stevens waved and the Pelicans' defense changed.
The moment the pick-and-roll was formed, Davis ignored Aldridge and went directly to Leonard.
Tang Tian went to communicate with Stevens in the midfield. The two people focused on the issue of Leonard's double-team.
Playing the ball is Leonard's only weakness, but it can also be targeted.
Tang Tian was initially targeted by the entire league. Now Tang Tian retires and it is Leonard's turn.
This trick did work, Leonard couldn't get the ball in the doubles, he didn't want to rush, and was defeated by Gasol and Davis.
At the last moment he could only be forced to call a timeout.
Popovich was a little upset with his face dark, after all, he played for more than two minutes in the second half.
But this also gave him a signal that the Pelicans were ready to double-enclose Leonard in the second half.
After a timeout, Leonard changed from having a ball to no ball, and Popovich's adjustment was timely.
However, Leonard is not Tang Tian. His off-ball threat is obviously smaller than the on-ball threat.
Leonard used Aldridge's cover to cut to the basket and White's pass to the ground.
"Snapped!"
Davis makes a direct steal from the side!
It came down suddenly, and after Davis intercepted the ball, he passed it to Hollodi. Hollodi scored 2 points on the fast break.
55 flat!
On the scene, the Pelicans just tied the difference, but in momentum, the Pelicans have begun.
Leonard ran without a ball in the frontcourt, and White didn't dare pass the ball. He finally made a pick-and-roll with Aldridge to make a layup.
But just as he broke through, a figure flew to help defend.
It's Davis again!
"boom!"
A nailboard cap!
After Stevens put Davis back in the fourth position, his ability to assist began to show.
After blocking, he also gave the ball to Holliday next to him and drew his head quickly.
The Pelicans had a 4-on-3 in the frontcourt, and then turned into a 3-on-2. Brogden passed a false pass to Midfielder Davis.
Davis pushed the ball into the rim across Forbes.
"Oh!"
Today's top five!
Davis nailed the big hat, and quickly hacked Huashan to slam each other!
The whole New Orleans arena is boiled.
Although this ball is only 2 points, but the momentum is like a rainbow, irritable.
Davis was brave enough in the first half, and had such a strong performance in the second half.
Davis is really different tonight!
Tang Tian also reached out to applaud Davis just now. His strategy with Stevens and Davis's bravery, the Pelicans' win has become a reality!
Leonard held the ball in the frontcourt and shot in front of the doubles.
"Dang!"
Out of the box!
After Leonard was double-teamed, the efficiency of scoring dropped when he was out of the phone!
He is paying tuition!
Looking back, Durant and Davis made a pick-and-roll, and Durant shot Davis ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Davis made a three-pointer.
"Oh!"
With a crisp sound, Davis also had a three-pointer!
Davis is hanging up tonight!
60 to 55!
Leonard is still on the court, but the Pelicans still pull the difference!
The Spurs made a mistake on the fly, George made a mistake in the pass, and was directly intercepted by Hollodi, who made a one-stop attack to the frontcourt and scored 2 points!
The difference is 7 points!
On the spot to the Spurs bench, Popovich's face turned from red to black and then to iron blue.
Originally, the Pelicans got the start. He called a timeout is the most appropriate choice, but Leonard called the timeout ahead of time!
