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

Winning this game is extremely important for Cousins ​​and Davis.

The two also hugged after the game.

It can be seen how excited the two of them were after winning this game.

Actually this is understandable.

After all, the two have been in the NBA for so many years, and they finally saw some rewards.

Davis has been with the Pelicans for six years and has entered the second round of the playoffs for the first time.

And Cousins ​​has been in the NBA for eight years.

Not to mention the second round of the playoffs, he has never even made it to the playoffs.

The two frustrated people met together, but they didn't expect such a big windfall.

As for the Lakers, although they lost this game, the team is not frustrated.

After all, there are still many problems in this game.

As long as the difference of three to five points cannot be recovered, that is a problem.

After Chen Tian returned to the locker room, it was funny to think about today's game.

But he also has to understand Tatum.

If it was him, he would definitely do the same.

You must know that playing one more game is a different figure for nba's income.

What's more, Chen Tian is also a businessman.

And he is the biggest businessman in the world.

So losing such a match, Chen Tian is acceptable.

In fact, even if it was a tiebreaker, Chen Tian could accept it.

As long as you don't make any fools in the tiebreaker, that's fine.

Chen Tian still knew the strength of the Lakers.

In the game between the Spurs and the Rockets, the Spurs eventually won.

But winning is not easy.

At the last moment, he was almost pulled back by the Rockets.

It also shocked Popovich into a cold sweat.

This time the Western Conference semifinals were all scored 2:1.

It can be said that the battle was quite intense.

After a day's rest, the two games in the Eastern Conference also started.

The game between the Celtics and the Bucks is still a crushing situation.

Especially in this game, Lin Sen completely broke out.

Continuously scored in the paint.

It also made the Bucks helpless.

In the end, the Celtics also won the game, turning the big score into 2:0.

The Celtics' advancement to the Eastern Conference Finals is already a certainty in everyone's eyes.

The current Bucks are still a bit worse against the Celtics.

The game between the Nets and the 76ers will be much more exciting.

This time the Nets also made a strange move, that is, they used five small lineups.

You know, since the nba advocated physical confrontation, the five small lineups have been used less and less.

After all, there is no way to limit the scoring inside, so the five small lineups are very tasteless.

But this lineup on the Nets has had a good effect.

Because the Nets' striker is indeed strong.

They sent five people, James, Durant, Carroll, Dinwiddie and Lang Dai.

You must know that Dinwiddie, the shortest of the five, is also 1.98 meters.

What's more, the others are able to defend the inside.

This disrupted the deployment of the 76ers.

At the end of the three quarters, the Nets also expanded the score to a ten-point gap.

When Chen Tian saw such a game, he didn't expect that the Nets would have such a skill.

It can be said that such a lineup can only be produced by the Nets.

Such a striker group is indeed strong.

In the end, the 76ers also lost to the strange five-small lineup of the Nets.

"This is really an unexpected match!"

Chen Tian also said with a smile.

Anthony on the other side looked at Chen Tian and said the same.

"Do you think it is easier to deal with the Nets, or it is easier to deal with the Celtics and 76ers!"

When Chen Tian heard this, he also thought about it.

"It's much easier to deal with the Nets!"

When Chen Tian said this, Anthony was a little surprised.

After all, the Nets have two king bombs in their hands, and Chen Tian actually said that it is easy to deal with the Nets.

"There are people in the Nets, we also have them, and those that the Nets don't have, we still have them. Do you still think it is difficult to deal with the Nets?"

"Whether it's the Celtics or the 76ers, what we have, they don't have, but what they have, we don't have either!"

"Jokic, Lin Sen, and Embiid are not going to do any good now!"

"The current Jokic is still a bit worse than the two of them!"

Anthony nodded when he heard Chen Tian's words, but he still retorted.

"Isn't it? Is there such a big gap between Jokic and the two of them?"

Chen Tian shook his head.

"It's not a difference in strength, but a problem of style of play!"

"Linsen and Embiid are both offensive players, while Jokic is a team center!"

"If you look at all the statistics of a game, Jokic must be better!"

"But if you only look at scoring efficiency, Jokic is not as good as Embiid and Lin Sen!"

In fact, what Chen Tian said was not wrong at all.

Because Jokic has never been an offensive center.

In addition, Chen Tian remembered that it would be after [-] years that Jokic really developed all the offensive methods.

Anthony also felt that Chen Tian's analysis made sense.

"We're thinking too far, we haven't entered the Western Conference Finals yet!"

"But if we can win this game again, it will be an earth-shaking change for the Lakers, no, it should be said for you!"

Anthony looked at Chen Tian and said.

Chen Tian did not deny it.

"It doesn't matter, just go all out on the court. With my ability, it shouldn't be a problem to surpass Jordan throughout my career!"

Anthony also burst out laughing when he heard Chen Tian boasting.

"If you don't brag, we are still good friends!"

As soon as these words came out, both Chen Tian and Anthony laughed.

The next night, the fourth game between the Lakers and Pelicans also started.

For the results of the last game, the fans on the Pelicans side and even the New Orleans side cheered.

After all, the team has been silent for too long.

The victory of this game let them see the light.

And the Lakers have no impact here.

Everyone is gearing up for Game [-].

Soon after the fourth game between the two teams started.

Chen Tian could clearly feel that the referee was not so targeted.

This made Chen Tian let go.

But the referee didn't target it anymore, but something went wrong on his team's side.

After the start of the first quarter, the Lakers didn't score from the outside line.

Tucker's open three-pointer from the bottom corner, such a good opportunity, did not make it.

That's okay, but Anthony's shot also missed the basket.

Even Chen Tian's open shot came out of the basket.

This time the Lakers were passive.

As for the Pelicans, under the leadership of the Twin Towers, the team played better and better.

After the start of the second quarter, Chen Tian changed his tactics and hit the basket frequently in an attempt to overtake the score.

But with the double towers as the center of the basket, it is very difficult for Chen Tian to attack.

Chen Tian had to choose to use irregular shooting skills every time.

This consumes too much physical strength.

And the Lakers just can't play the outside touch.

This made Monty a little anxious.

Finally, at halfway through the second quarter, Anthony felt much better.

I can provide Chen Tian with some help,

Jokic didn't have much time to perform against the Pelicans.

After all, facing the defense of the inner double towers, what Jokic can do is to open up space for Chen Tian and organize the offense.

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers were also seven points behind the Pelicans.

"In this game, the Lakers' condition is too bad, no one can help Chen Tian!"

Kenny also said at the end of halftime.

"It depends on whether the Lakers can regain their touch in the second half of the game!"

The second half of the game between the two teams began.

As a result, after the start of the third quarter, the feel of the Lakers is still not very good.

But Anthony also stood up in time, hitting the basket continuously to help Chen Tian reduce the pressure.

But for the Pelicans, everything went smoothly.

The performance of Cousins ​​and Davis in this game is simply perfect.

Even under Chen Tian's defense, Davis frequently succeeded in the interior.

But finally, with 2 minutes left in the third quarter, the Lakers' outside touch opened up.

Tucker made a three-pointer from a 45-degree angle.

This goal scored made the Lakers bench very excited.

After that, the Lakers' outside touch finally opened up.

The Lakers also started chasing points.

This made the Pelicans a little flustered.

Cousins ​​and Davis, who were going to go down to rest, couldn't go down immediately after seeing this scene.

Both of them knew that they must win such a good situation in this game.

The score of 2:2 is their hope of going on.

So in the subsequent games, the two teams also reached a heated stage.

After the start of the fourth quarter, both teams played with all their main players.

Both the Lakers and the Pelicans want to win.

So the offense of the two teams is getting sharper and sharper.

On the defensive end, it is getting tighter and tighter.

Even if Chen Tian wanted to hit the basket, it was not so easy.

There is still 1 minute left before the end of the game.

The Pelicans still hold a five-point advantage.

At this time, Anthony stepped back and scored a three-pointer.

The goal was scored, and the entire Lakers bench celebrated.

But in turn, Cousins ​​played hard inside, turned around and scored a layup.

The point difference returned to four points again.

After that, Chen Tian also made a jump shot.

Time is running out at this time.

The Lakers also adopted a full-court pressing tactic.

But Rondo completed the redemption this time.

He saw Davis' position at a glance and passed the ball in one go.

Davis made a layup.

This goal scored directly killed the game.

At the end of the game, the Pelicans won the Lakers 98:92.

Turned the big score into 2:2.
