Chapter 522 The Most Tragic Series (First Update!)

However, Qiao Geer's adjustment had been anticipated by Tang Tian in advance.

When the attack reached the frontcourt, the space opened up, and Tang Tian directly singled Courtney Lee.

Tony Allen is the foundation of the Pelicans' defense, but he's also the foundation of the Grizzlies' defense.

Li's defensive ability was a step behind Allen's, and it was difficult for him to hold down Tang Tian one-on-one.

Tang Tianbian's backward Ganba hit directly.

This moment stumped Jogel.

It's not on Aaron, and it's not on it.

This is the disadvantage of Allen. If he has offensive ability in addition to the top defense, then his value will at least double.

But not everyone is Tang Tian, ​​and the Grizzlies can't make a Tang Tian out of thin air if they can be reborn with a system.

In the end, in the back-and-forth of Allen and Allen, the Pelicans established a lead a little bit, and successfully maintained the advantage until the end.

91 to 77, the Pelicans lost two consecutive home games in New Orleans, but they pulled one back in Memphis!

They didn't intend to admit defeat so easily!

Tang Tian recovered and scored 30 points. Although Davis only scored 15 points, he sent 11 rebounds, 5 blocks and 5 assists.

The Twins found a new way to win.

Two days later, with the momentum of the third game, the fourth game of the series between the Pelicans and the Grizzlies continued at the FedEx Arena.

Due to the lack of lineup of the Grizzlies, Jogel couldn't find a good way to deal with it all at once.

His choice is to remove Allen and start Prince, and then use the team's help defense rotation to make up for the lack of single defense.

And it can be clearly felt that the entire defensive intensity of the Grizzlies in the fourth game has skyrocketed.

The Pelicans played very hard. Almost every time they scored, they exhausted their whole body. There were all the sounds of muscle confrontation and collision on the court.

Because of this style of play, the Grizzlies are recognized by other teams as teams that don't want to play in the playoffs.

It is really not a metaphor to say that immortality has to peel off its skin, it really has to peel off its skin.

In the fourth quarter of the game, the two teams were still in a stalemate, and the hands of the Pelicans were all bruised and purple.

This feeling is really the basketball of the last century. Only those with strong mental strength and willpower can persevere to the end.

Fortunately, Tang Tian has it.

His consecutive singles in the second half of the fourth quarter helped the Pelicans establish an advantage.

Whiteside and Davis were also very competitive at the last moment. Tang Tian took care of the offense, and they took care of the defense.

With consecutive blocks and rebounds, the Pelicans maintained their advantage until the end.

79 to 72, the Pelicans made another victory.

The scoring of the two teams hit a new low in this year's playoffs.

What a hand-to-hand fight.

The highest scorer in the game was Tang Tian, ​​but he only scored 23 points. Just from this point, you can feel the intensity of the game.

But the good news is that the Pelicans had the last laugh.

In this way, they tied the series at 2-2.

The seven-game four-win system has become a three-game two-win system, and they still have home court advantage.

"It was a fantastic night and we're going to enjoy it."

Williams' words after the game showed the mood of the Pelicans at this time.

But Williams was right about the first half of the sentence and wrong about the second half.

After the game, the players of the Pelicans didn't have time to enjoy it at all. They basically all did ice packs in the locker room.

It was great to beat the Clippers in the tiebreaker before, but they actually played the entire series with the Clippers.

After only two days of rest, they ushered in the most difficult Grizzlies in the playoffs.

This is really the worst experience.

At this time, the players will inevitably be tired, not to mention bruises and bruises on their bodies.

Basically everyone is sitting and resting in the locker room.

Tang Tian's spirit is the best among them. After all, he still has the skills of a masked man, and his physical fitness is the best.

But looking at a group of young and tired teammates around him, he felt that this series may have just reached the toughest part.

The good news is that Tianwangshan will return to New Orleans to play, which can give them a greater psychological advantage.

The Pelicans flew back to New Orleans.

At this time, the semi-finals of the East and West entered into a fierce stage.

The Lakers lost another game at home. They have fallen behind the Spurs 1-3 and are on the verge of elimination.

The Spurs lack Tang Tian, ​​and the Lakers have more Brandon Wright and Nick Young. In theory, it shouldn't be like this.

But the root of the problem still appeared in Howard. He performed poorly on both ends of the court. He only scored 9 points and 7 rebounds, and also committed 4 fouls and 4 turnovers.

Obviously, Howard couldn't feel happy and started to give up.

In the East, the Heat have swept the Nets 4-0.

Suffocated breath, coupled with Neil's outstanding performance to allow Wade to get enough rest, they really hope to win the championship this year.

And another set of matchups, the Bulls and Pacers matchup, has been as red-eyed as the Pelicans and Grizzlies.

The two sides battled to a 2-2 tie, and the outcome is still unknown.

After returning to New Orleans to rest for two days, the Pelicans continued to compete with the Grizzlies in the series.

The game after 2 to 2 is Tianwangshan. The winning side will get the match point and get the absolute initiative in the series.

In this game, both the Pelicans and the Grizzlies are determined to win.

The game fell into a stalemate at the beginning, and the confrontation on the field was more intense than the fourth game.

The two teams were tied in the first quarter, tied in the second quarter, and tied at the end of the third quarter, and none of them scored more than 60 points. This is a real hand-to-hand combat!

Because the situation was too tense, Tang Tian and Davis didn't rest much.

At this time, there were frequent accidents on the field. Davis' eyebrows were bleeding from Randolph's elbow, and a large piece of gauze was pasted on it.

As for Tang Tian, ​​the index finger of his left hand was directly hit and dislocated.

He gritted his teeth and was corrected by the team doctor off the field.

That scene was really painful to watch.

After the correction, he asked the team doctor to fix the index finger and middle finger together, and then played again.

The brutality of this game is truly unprecedented.

Davis' eyebrows, Tang Tian's left index finger, these are not very serious injuries, but they will obviously affect their performance.

Davis' vision was disturbed and he couldn't make consecutive shots. Tang Tian couldn't exert force with his left hand, and his change of direction also lost the threat.

The Grizzlies took advantage of the situation to establish a lead, and successfully maintained the advantage until the end, winning the game 76 to 70.

The Pelicans won the last game, but this time it was the Grizzlies.

Playing this kind of game, they are obviously more experienced.

After this tragic Tianwangshan battle, the Grizzlies took a 3-2 lead and successfully won the match point.

For the Pelicans, they are really only a thin line away from being eliminated now.
