NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

In the Western Conference semifinals, the Lakers defeated the Pelicans in Game [-], and the Rockets defeated the Spurs in Game [-].

The result of such a game is both reasonable and unexpected.

It was no surprise that the Lakers took the Pelicans.

But the Spurs lost to the Rockets, which was more or less unexpected.

But considering the strength gap between the two teams, it is normal to lose.

After all, it is impossible for these two teams to end the game without playing six games.

But what surprised the fans the most was Chen Tian's loss to the mvp.

After all, it is on the list of the best team and the best defensive team.

Chen Tiandu was in the first team.

But the result cannot be changed, which is very disappointing to Chen Tian's fans.

Maybe only the person involved has no feeling about this matter.

After a day of rest, the Western Conference semifinals also ushered in the second matchup.

The games between the Lakers and Pelicans, as well as the Spurs and Rockets, all started at the same time.

Kenny looked at the rosters of the two teams in the commentary booth.

He also said a little puzzled.

"It seems that the Pelicans have not made any changes here, they just replaced Tony Allen with Cunningham!"

Barkley on one side also said after reading the list.

"Actually, this substitution is already obvious. At least Cunningham's outside shooting is better than Tony Allen's!"

Hearing this, O'Neill didn't know what to say.

But what the three of them didn't expect was that with just such a substitution, the Pelicans had changed a lot.

With the starting players of the two teams playing, the game is about to begin.

And Kobe is still sitting in the auditorium tonight.

Johnson sat with him this time too.

Soon Jokic and Cousins ​​also stood on the middle circle.

As the referee threw the ball high, both Cousins ​​and Jokic jumped up.

As far as the jump ball of the two of them is concerned, they are actually not very good.

Cousins' jumping ability is not very good either.

So this time Jokic was lucky and jumped the ball.

The Lakers also got the first wave of offensive possessions.

As soon as he came up, Chen Tian assisted Anthony and easily scored with a mid-range shot.

But in turn, when Davis was holding the ball, Anthony came to help defend.

Davis also passed the ball to Cunningham.

Cunningham directly made a three-pointer.

The ball was scored steadily.

With this goal scored, the Pelicans' bench was also excited.

Kenny in the commentary seat couldn't help shouting.

"This is a beautiful three-pointer, as it should be, and the duo need their help!"

Cunningham's goal made Anthony dare not easily help defend.

And the Pelicans have a touch on the outside, which makes the inside much easier.

But no one expected that Cunningham's goal was also his brightest goal in the game.

After that, Cunningham missed two consecutive outside shots.

This made Anthony wonder if the guy was blinded by the ball just now.

Sure enough, Anthony once again chose to help defend, and Cunningham missed the open three-pointer.

"Oh, something is wrong. Cunningham's three-pointer turned out to be a hoodwink!"

Barkley said directly when he saw that the goal was missed.

And the head coach of the Pelicans is also aware of this.

But he doesn't have any good solutions. There are not many players with good outside shots on the team.

Fortunately, this time has reached the stage of substitution.

Gentry is also preparing to change players to see who can feel better tonight.

The two teams began to make substitutions, while Chen Tian and Cousins ​​remained on the field.

For the Pelicans, they must do their best to win this game.

Otherwise, the big score of 2:0 would really put a lot of pressure on them.

Gibson's difficulty in defending Cousins ​​is not small.

But with Yi Jianlian's defense, Gibson's pressure is also much less.

But at this time the Pelicans stood up a player.

That's Darius Miller.

He received a pass from Cousins ​​on the outside and made a direct three-pointer.

"Score! Miller! He scored a three-pointer!"

Barkley was also very excited to score this goal.

Afterwards, Gibson's strong play in the paint was blocked by Cousins.

The Pelicans counterattacked, and Miller caught the ball again and made a three-pointer.

With this shot, the entire Pelicans bench stood up.

The ball lived up to their expectations and rolled steadily into the net.

The goal was scored, and even the head coach Gentry clenched his fists excitedly.

Monty frowned when he saw this scene.

Because he can see that the morale of the Pelicans has risen.

Monty didn't hesitate, and directly called a timeout.

Chen Tian and others returned to the bench, and Monty also said directly.

"Miller's outside touch on the opposite side has opened up, and he can't let him shoot three-pointers so easily anymore!"

"The inside line must withstand the pressure, and now shrinking defense is not very effective!"

"So the defense of inside players must be improved!"

Everyone nodded when they heard the coach's words.

And the commentary seat here.

"This game is interesting, the Pelicans have found the key to victory!"

Kenny also said here.

The timeout ended and the game continued between the two teams.

"Sure enough, the Lakers don't dare to help defend the inside anymore!"

"In this way, the inside advantage of the Pelicans can be reflected!"

O'Neill also said when he saw the situation on the field.

Unable to help defend, Cousins ​​just played as he wanted inside.

There was no other way, Chen Tian could only use offense against offense.

Chen Tian also started to score consecutive jump shots.

There is not much time left for the first quarter.

1 minute left.

At this time, the score difference between the two teams was only one point.

This was just when Chen Tian scored a layup to overtake the score.

The Pelicans attacked here, and Yi Jianlian slapped Clark for a layup.

Seeing this scene, Chen Tian rushed to the front court.

Rose took the ball and threw it to the frontcourt.

Chen Tian received the ball, and directly raised his hands to dunk the ball in.

When the goal was scored, Chen Tian also beat his chest and roared angrily.

But after that, Cousins ​​also succeeded in another strong attack in the interior.

By this time time was running out.

Chen Tian held the ball and pulled everyone away.

Chen Tian looked at the time, and with five seconds left, Chen Tian started it.

After shaking continuously, Chen Tian stepped back and threw the ball.

The ball is flying in the air, and the red light is also on.

But the ball is still scored steadily.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers took a three-point lead over the Pelicans with Chen Tian's buzzer-beater.

"From the first quarter, Miller will definitely get the attention of the head coach of the Pelicans!"

"And for the Lakers, this news is not a good thing!"

At the end of the first quarter, Kenny also analyzed the situation on the field.

"Yes, but the Lakers obviously haven't entered the state in the first quarter!"

"What they are best at has not been shown!"

Barkley on the side also said.

"The Lakers can only limit the opposing Pelicans by increasing their speed!"

O'Neill also made the last speech.

What O'Neill said was the same as what Monty was thinking now.

"You have to increase your speed, and you can't fall into a positional battle with your opponent!"

Monty was also shouting there.

Chen Tian and the others also understood what the coach meant.

Soon the second quarter also started.

But no one expected that at the beginning of the second quarter, the Pelicans gave the Lakers a blow.

Moore, this guy, scored two consecutive three-pointers and directly overtook the score.

Seeing this scene, the three of Kenny were also excited.

"This kind of game is what the playoffs should look like!"

Buckley shouted excitedly.

Even if O'Neill is a fan of Chen Tian, ​​he still looks forward to such a game.

But O'Neill is still looking forward to Chen Tian's outbreak.

On the court, because of Moore's sudden three-pointer, the Lakers were a little moved.

At this moment, Chen Tian stood up again.

He got the ball first, beat Tony Allen and scored a layup.

After that, he assisted Rose again and scored a layup with a folded lever.

When Chen Tian saw Rose's action, he was also taken aback.

When returning to defense, Chen Tian also whispered to Ross.

"Don't do such an action next time, it's really scary to look at!"

Ross didn't say anything when he heard Chen Tian's words.

But Rose's heart was very warm.

Because no one cared about him like this except his family.

Chen Tian didn't expect that Ross would be so moved by his kind reminder.

Actually think about it.

A player like Rose seems to have a curse on him.

Whenever he rises, there are bound to be injuries that find him.

And it's the same off the court, there are always many things happening around him.

Coupled with his introverted personality, this leaves him with no one to tell.

Thought he found a home in Chicago, but the Bulls abandoned him in the end.

Chen Tian still remembers the scene where Ross was being interviewed in his previous life, knowing that he was traded by the bulls, and crying instantly.

For Rose, in fact, he has always been a favorite star of the post-90s generation.

However, the injury still made this proud man of heaven unable to get up again.

Back to the game.

The match between the two teams has also reached a heated stage.

For the Pelicans, Davis scored consecutively inside.

And Chen Tian also led the striker group, leading the score with difficulty.

Just when the two teams were playing fiercely, an accident occurred on the court.

Chen Tian passed the ball to Caruso, and Caruso also made a layup and scored the ball.

When Chen Tian saw the ball go in, he was ready to return to defense.

But at this time, there was a surprised voice in the audience.

When Chen Tian heard this voice, he immediately felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, when Chen Tian turned his head and looked over, he saw Caruso lying on the ground, clutching his ankle.

When Chen Tian saw that he was covering his ankle, he felt a sudden twitch in his heart.

Chen Tian also hurried over.

And the big screen at the scene also released the picture of Caruso's layup and landing just now.

There was no physical contact, it was simply that Caruso himself did not stand firm.

The Lakers are all surrounded.

Because the ankle was injured, it was impossible to check it out at the scene.

So the team doctor also asked someone to carry Caruso back to the locker room.

Suddenly Caruso's injury cast a shadow over the Lakers.
