Chapter 1183 Xiaoshuai’s Complicated Mood

When Tang Tian named his first choice player, the TNT studio suddenly became quiet for a while.

The fans in front of the TV were all stunned, thinking that they heard wrongly.

Tang Tian, ​​Durant was your first choice? !

Among the 8 people, the person least likely to be selected is Durant!

There are many stories in the NBA, and there are also many grievances, such as between Kobe and O'Neal, such as between James and Wade...

But between Tang Tian and Durant, there is no grudge, only hatred!

Durant has been unhappy with Tang Tian since he entered the league because of the Nike issue, and he has been using his trumpet to attack Tang Tian ever since.

Even his several choices as a free agent and several changes in his personality are all related to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian has never praised Durant in public or privately.

But now, Tang Tian has chosen Durant as his first choice!

"Did I hear wrongly?"

Buckley confirmed to Tang Tian.

"No, I choose Kevin Durant."

Tang Tian nodded and repeated.

"Can you tell us why?"

Buckley asked, which is what everyone is curious about.

"No reason."

Tang Tian didn't explain.

In fact, before the actual selection, he didn't think about choosing Durant, but when it came time to start, he chose it.

It may have something to do with the change in Durant's personality he saw during the last match against the Lakers.

It may also be that he and Durant have always been rivals, but have never played on the same team, and he wants to experience the feeling of the two playing together.

Or, as he said, there is no reason, but he just wants to choose.

Buckley saw that Tang Tian didn't seem to be telling lies. Although it sounded strange, it was his choice.

A suburban mansion somewhere in Los Angeles.

The Lakers have no training scheduled this morning, and Durant is alone in his manor.

Smoking a cigar, hugging a high-quality imitation Scarlett, drinking red wine, using a mobile phone to log into the Twitter account, and watching the live broadcast of the selection.

Not only is he a bit handsome, but his quality of life is also a bit high.

But when he heard that Tang Tian preferred him, he was completely confused.

His emotions at that moment were indescribably complicated.

There are doubts, shocks, anger, unwillingness, and indescribables.

If you could use one sentence to describe his mood at the moment.

What a thing!

Probably the best way to describe it.

But when his mood stabilized, he felt a little happy inside.

In so many years, this was the first time Tang Tian recognized him, especially after catching up with him.

When this emotion appeared, his emotions became more complicated.

Tang Tiantian! Why does it have to be like this!

…

The selection live broadcast on TNT continues.

Antetokounmpo's first choice is the same as he said before, Irving.

Tang Tian's second choice was Walker.

This choice is not too surprising. Apart from the hard-working brotherhood, among the remaining six players, Walker is the point guard.

Moreover, this year's All-Star Game is played in Boston, and Walker is the host, so he has to choose no matter what.

Antetokounmpo then chose James.

Tang Tian took advantage of the situation and captured Leonard.

I have to say that there are still many benefits to being the first choice.

Antetokounmpo then chose Harden. Among the remaining two guards, Harden is obviously stronger than DeRozan.

Tang Tian's fourth choice was given to Horford, not because he wanted to steal Antetokounmpo's teammates, but because the lineups he chose before were all on the outside.

Antetokounmpo finally won DeRozan.

After both sides have been selected, the starting lineups for the Eastern and Western Conferences have also been determined.

Tangtian team: Walker, Tangtian, Durant, Leonard, Horford.

Team Antetokounmpo: Irving, Harden, DeRozan, James, Antetokounmpo.

Compared with last year, this year's lineup is obviously much more balanced.

Last year, fans saw a good show of a low score against a high score in the All-Star Game. This year, they can watch a close contest.

After starting the game, Antetokounmpo and Tang Tian successively selected substitute lineups.

Like the starters, the strength of the bench is also relatively balanced.

Tangtian team: Davis, Jimmy Butler, Westbrook, Drummond, Beal, Russell.

Team Antetokounmpo: Curry, George, Embiid, Lillard, Lowry, Hayward, Randle.

Such a well-balanced lineup makes fans look forward to the main game again.

The selection live broadcast has ended, but fans are still talking about it on social media.

Tang Tian's first choice of Durant is naturally the focus of discussion among fans.

Some people say that Tang Tian did it purely for the effect of the show, while others said that Tang Tian did it deliberately to disgust Durant.

Some people even speculated that this was Tang Tian's plan to ruin the atmosphere within the Lakers team!

There were endless explanations, but Tang Tian didn't pay attention to them.

Because on the day after the trade deadline, the Pelicans will sit at home and face the Lakers for the second time this season.

The last time the two teams played was 2 months ago, when Tang Tian scored 82 points and defeated the Lakers with three points.

That game was very emotional, and now that they are playing again after two months, the fans are looking forward to this game.

For the Pelicans, this game has pros and cons compared to the last time they met.

The advantage is that this game is played at home.

The disadvantage is that Gasol has not yet reported to the team because the physical examination for the transaction has not been completed.

In addition, Dedmon has left the team, the only centers the Pelicans can use in this game are Harrell and Robinson.

Amid the fans' expectations, the game started that night at the New Orleans Arena.

The venue was packed with seats, and the ratings for major sports remained high.

In the past, the Pelican-Yong war was the focus of fans' expectations, but now it has become the Pelican-Lake war.

Every game attracts as much attention as the finals.

This time, the Lakers clearly had the upper hand.

From the beginning, they have been suppressing the Pelicans.

Playing until the fourth quarter, they had extended their lead to 15 points.

But with Tang Tian here, the Pelicans obviously won't lose that easily.

In the most critical quarter, Tang Tian showed the strength of the first player in NBA history, scoring 23 points in a single quarter, and led the team to tie the score at the last minute.

The two sides entered overtime.

In the first overtime, Tang Tian got up and his offensive continued unabated, but the Lakers did not show weakness.

Durant's three-pointer at the buzzer at the last moment helped the Lakers tie the score again.

The two teams entered the second overtime.

In this overtime, the Lakers double-teamed Tang Tian wildly. The Pelicans originally had a chance to kill at the last minute, but Alexander, who received the ball, failed to make the ball.

The final score between the two teams was fixed at 121 to 119. This time the Lakers had the last laugh.

Zhan Duhe scored 82 points, accounting for two-thirds of the team's points, which fully demonstrated the super giant's personal ability.

For the Pelicans, Tang Tiantian scored 61 points and Davis had 20+10.

After the Christmas Day battle, the two teams played another soul-stirring game.

But the most excited ones are Lakers fans.

The last time the Lakers lost in the Christmas game in front of everyone, but this time they won it back!

They had their revenge!

After the game, slogans of "Lakers championship" resounded on social media.
