The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Ariza couldn't stand it.

After James broke into the penalty area, he has forced Ariza away with a tank-like breakthrough.

Whiteside came out to help out from the inside.

At this time, the Cavaliers also made tactical runs from the outside, but James did not choose to pass the ball, but went strong against Whiteside.

Whiteside blocked the shot, and the two had a physical confrontation.

James just didn't lose the wind and threw the ball high.

The ball went over Whiteside's blocked fingertips and hit the board in a small parabola.

"boom!"

The ball hits the center of the basket and bounces into the net.

With the last 5 seconds left in the game, James scored the most critical two-pointer in a tough way!

There was an uproar at the scene.

Many fans covered their faces and dared not watch.

Ariza and Whiteside have done a good job of defending the ball, but James played the key ball really hard.

After James played, he beat his chest and roared excitedly.

This ball played the domineering spirit of his little emperor.

After yelling, he turned and glanced at Tang Tian.

When he was in the Heat, the Heat lost consecutively to the Spurs.

His key pass was questioned by many fans.

Now that so many years have passed, his playing style and personality have changed a lot from that time.

His key shots have been more offensive than passing, and his understanding of basketball is different from before.

He is no longer the original him!

Tang Tian didn't respond. James scored the goal just now because of his ability. What he's thinking about now is the next round of offense.

In the last 5 seconds, this time is not enough to run tactics, basically you can only attack when you catch the ball.

And it also depends on the Cavaliers' defensive options.

The situation is very unfavorable for the Pelicans.

"Don, are you here to shoot and catch a three-pointer?"

Before laying out the tactics, Borrego pulled Tang Tian and asked.

When he was in the Spurs, he often shot this kind of lore three-pointer.

Tang Tian shook his head.

The Pelicans are not the Spurs. He was able to catch the ball and make a phone call because GDP was there to restrain him.

The Cavaliers won't give him that chance.

For the last ball, there is no other choice but singles.

He walked over to communicate with Williams for a while, and basically determined the way to play the last ball.

Back from the timeout, the Pelicans served the frontcourt.

The home fans felt their chests pounding.

This ball, either in overtime, or a lore, or lose, no matter what the result is, it will be very exciting.

Even the Big Three of TNT in the commentary booth temporarily stopped chatting.

The national live broadcast audience of this game is not bad, this is definitely the most exciting game after the All-Star Game.

Davis serves off the court.

The Pelicans have Morrow, Ariza, Holiday and Tang Tian on the court.

There was no tactical movement on the field. Except for Tang Tian, ​​who was about to catch the ball, the other three fell to the bottom corner and the three-point line on the weak side.

This is obviously to catch and play directly.

Careful viewers found a very interesting thing that James was man-marking Tang Tian at this time.

It can be seen that he was beaten twice by the Spurs in the Heat, and he still minded in his heart, and he didn't want that to happen again.

Davis sent the ball to Tang Tian, ​​and then made an air cut to the basket.

Le Fu pursued and defended the past.

Because being scored a three-pointer is a lore, the rest of the Cavaliers did not dare to let their defenders come over.

After Tang Tian received the ball, he directly hit James one-on-one.

At 5 seconds, there wasn't much room for adjustment, Tang Tian was about to make a shot after dribbling the ball twice with his body down.

But James' defense was in place, sticking close to Tang Tian and not giving him a chance to pull.

When the time went to 2 seconds, Tang Tian chose to turn around and lean back.

The three-point line is leaning back!

James didn't expect Tang Tian to choose such a choice, and his reaction was a bit slower.

When he pounced on it, Tang Tian shot up in the air after he had finished.

Leaning back itself is a technique that tests the strength of the waist. Ordinary people near the free throw line may not stick to it.

Even for a professional player, a fadeaway from the three-point line is a difficult shot.

The moment after the ball was shot, the red light on the sidelines also turned on.

James' interference is limited.

The ball passed the highest point and attracted everyone's attention.

The only thing that was silent was the beating of his own heart.

The ball begins to fall after passing the highest point.

The pitch is a little short.

This is also expected, the buzzer is so difficult, it is really embarrassing.

"Dangdang!"

The ball bounced off the front edge of the basketball.

Tang Tian's lore failed!

Many fans covered their faces and couldn't believe the ending.

But in the next second, there was a burst of cheers in the arena.

The bouncing ball fell for the second time, and this time it hit the inner edge of the basket and bounced directly into it!

Under James' defense, Tang Tian used a three-pointer to kill the Cavaliers!

Thank you Raptor God 1 for your reward.

Chapter 657 JaVale McGee (fourth update!)

Pelicans teammates on and off the field rushed to Tang Tian's side like crazy.

This is definitely an epic lore goal, the kind that can be ranked among the top [-] in history!

"MVP! MVP!"

The fans at the scene also shouted in unison.

It's just that what they shouted was not Tang Tian's name but MVP.

Not only because of Tang Tian's performance tonight, but also because when the outside world questioned the MVP ranking, Tang Tian responded with practical actions.

27 of 15 shots, 40 points, 6 rebounds and 10 assists, a personal wave in one or three quarters, and an epic lore at the end.

Tang Tian played an absolute MVP-level performance in the most important game.

And the key is that he also led the entire team.

Davis scored 20 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks, and 4 sports goals came from Tang Tian's assists;

Ariza had 14 points and 4 rebounds, and 4 of the 2 three-pointers he made were assists from Tang Tian;

……

After the game, teammates from both sides shook hands for the final time.

James went straight back to the locker room without even shaking hands with his Pelicans teammates.

He scored 33 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists in this game. The statistics are not much worse than Tang Tian, ​​but the point is that the Cavaliers lost.

He is also a person who cares about face. He lost to Tang Tian in a row and was even killed. On such a night, he could no longer show his generosity.

Tang Tian and Owen chatted a lot when they hugged each other, and also said a lot of congratulations to each other.

Irving scored 30 points in this game, with 4 rebounds and 7 assists. He performed very well.

On social media after the game, Pelicans fans who had been suppressed on the hotline all night finally started to fight back.

"Before I said why Tang ranked ahead of James, let me tell you, it depends on winning!"

"You just killed the match buddy!"

"To be honest, LeBron played very well this time, but the opponent is the second-ranked MVP leader, and there is a reason why he ranks higher than you!"

"Thinking about it, it's really embarrassing. The second-round pick that was abandoned by the Heat at the beginning, now the voice of MVP is higher than the No.1 in the league they called at the beginning, tsk!"

"Riley has transferred five thousand dollars into your bank card number, and please don't dig up ancient tombs!"

……

This soul-stirring victory allowed the Pelicans to sweep away the haze of the past week, which was a great boost to the team's morale.

But with good news there is bad news.

It is gratifying that the Vengeance Cavaliers won the focus game, but Jokic's MRI after the game was positive, which is not ideal.

And the results of the examination came out the next day. He has a sprained Achilles tendon in his ankle and will be absent for 1 to 2 months.

This is definitely a big blow for the Pelicans.

It is now March. Even if Jokic recovers well and can come back in a month, it will be near the end of the regular season.

Just like Davis before, it takes time for players to adjust their status when they come back.

Moreover, Jokic still has a fat-prone physique. During this rest time, the weight will definitely go up again, and it will take time to come down again.

Not to mention that if it is two months, then his comeback will already be in May, when the playoffs may reach the second round.

Jokic suffered serious injuries, and Demps also accelerated the contract negotiations with McGee.

McGee was uninterested in the buyout market, and he finally agreed to a one-year fully guaranteed basic salary contract with the Pelicans.

This means he will play for the Pelicans until the end of the season.

After McGee was waived by the 76ers, he returned to Denver. After signing the contract, he packed his bags and arrived in New Orleans the next day.

The house was rented, he passed the physical examination, and he reported to the team the next afternoon.

His quick action can also allow him to catch up with the next home game against the Nuggets.

The NBA schedule was laid out as early as last year's offseason, but sometimes the schedule is so magical.

McGee had just been traded away by the Nuggets, and his first game after signing was to play against his old club.

When McGee came to report, the players had just finished training and were resting in the locker room.

With a height of 2 meters and an oversized body, if it weren't for the face that makes it difficult to be serious because of the five embarrassments, this is the appearance of a super center.

Borrego led McGee to Evans' cabinet and told him what he had said to Biyombo.
