After the warm-up, the opening ceremony entered the scene and the two teams were released one after another.

The Pelicans have regular starts on the five Tigers.

On the Warriors, Cole sent out five small teams, Splash Brothers from the outside, Iguodala and Durant on the front line, and center Green.

This time it wasn't Cole's big move in advance, but Dedmont was a 3D center and he didn't dare to play big guys.

Moreover, the big men on the team were too badly repaired by Embiid in the last round, and their condition was also a problem.

"Don, ad, please pay attention to the pick-and-roll between Curry and Durant."

Before playing, Stevens deliberately reminded Tang Tian and Davis.

Cole has used Dooku pick-and-roll more this season, and Stevens has also made targeted defensive arrangements.

After completing the final pre-match arrangement, the players of the two teams appeared one after another.

Tang Tian threw magnesium powder as usual, igniting the atmosphere at the opening.

Davis put the ball back to the Pelicans' half, officially kicking off the fourth season of the Pelicans' Battle.

Walker took the ball to the frontcourt and directly gave the ball to Tang Tian.

Facing opponents of the Warriors level, there is no need to test them, and the Pelicans use their ultimate moves as soon as they come up.

Tang Tiansan threatened to take the butterfly step and pass Thompson. When he saw Iguodala assisting in defense, he directly hit the earth without looking at people.

Butler appeared at the right time and flew into the layup after receiving the ball.

The Pelicans' offense is smooth and smooth, perfectly showing Tang Tian's personal ability and the tacit understanding between his hard-working brothers, as pleasing to the eye as mercury.

A burst of cheers rang out at the scene.

A glimpse of the whole Leopards can be seen from the cooperation of the Pelicans at the beginning that the Pelicans felt quite good on the offensive end tonight.

Curry pushed the ball into the frontcourt, and the Pelicans guarded the man.

Tang Tian defends Curry, Butler defends Thompson, Walker defends Iguodala, Davis defends Durant, and Dedmon defends Green.

This is a targeted person-to-people, and it is the point where Iguodala has no independent offensive ability now.

Curry reached out and made a tactical gesture. After running out, Iguodala suddenly turned back to the basket.

This is to catch Walker's lack of height to defend.

However, the Pelicans' choice was to switch directly. Dedmond, who was closest to shrink the basket, and Walker misplaced against Green.

Green was not threatened at the middle distance, so he squeezed into the basket and reached for the ball.

Curry wanted to give it but was delayed by Tang Tian. The Pelicans' weak side assisted in the rotation, but Butler has been transferred to the basket.

The Warriors' tactical intentions were completely destroyed.

There was not much time left for offensive attack, and Curry made a long three-pointer with Iguodala.

But Iguodala did not block Tang Tian, ​​and Curry's attack was seriously disturbed by Tang Tian. The ball was obviously short and hit the front of the basket and smashed out of the frame.

The defensive rebound was protected by Butler, and the Warriors' first offense failed!

"I take back what I said before, and this will be the most exciting game this year."

Kenny Smith only watched this round and took back what the commentary on the Trail Blazers had said.

The commentator is the most professional football master.

In a simple round, in just a few seconds, you can see the super high tactical level and execution ability of the two teams.

It can also be seen that they attach great importance to each other, and their pre-match research and targeting are quite thorough.

From the coaching staff to the players on the court, this is the showdown between real super teams!

Before Kenny Smith finished speaking, the Pelicans pushed the defense and counterattacked directly.

The Warriors reacted quickly, and Curry and Thompson's retreat were all in place.

But they retreated to the backcourt, Tang Tian received the pass from Walker, and a butterfly squeezed over Curry, jumped up and directly used a one-handed battle axe.

Curry was squeezed by and was still retreating, and he became Tang Tiange's background board.

"Bang!"

The ball was smashed into the basket.

Curry was also knocked out of the bottom line.

Cheers burst into tears at the scene.

The fans on the hotline felt distressed.

Golden State Lavender was obsessed with dunking after the game, but he often acted as such a background board on the court.

4-0, the Pelicans took the lead.

The Warriors play tactics in the frontcourt, but the Pelicans' defense quality is very high, and Thompson and Iguodala on the weak side cannot run out of the opportunity.

Curry finally chose to find Durant's pick-and-roll, but after disassembling it, Durant had no chance to change to Tang Tian.

Curry chose to change direction and break through Davis, but Davis was very flexible and followed until the basket and interfered. Curry's pull-up counterattack failed.

Davis took advantage of the situation to protect the defensive rebound, and the Warriors' offense returned in vain!

However, they retreated very quickly this time and did not give the Pelicans another chance to play defensive counterattack.

Tang Tian held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt to play, and passed Thompson and Iguodala in a row with continuous butterfly steps.

The Warriors contracted across the board and their defense was completely mobilized.

Tang Tian turned around and leaned back and jumped up, showed Olson's power of happiness in the air, twisted his waist and transferred the ball to Walker on the outside.

Walker made a three-pointer in the open space.

"Swish!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

7 to 0!

The Pelicans not only started the game, but also gave the Warriors a big warning!

"I have a feeling that the Pelicans tonight are very different from the Pelicans in the past two rounds."

Barkley said at this time.

"Yes, I also feel that the quality they played on both offense and defense tonight, especially on the defensive ends, is completely different."

Smith nodded and said, which was why he would have expressed such emotion before.

"Yes, this difference is hard to describe, but it's really different."

Barkley then agreed.

"When you meet strong, you will be strong."

O'Neal didn't say anything in front, and he said with a little pride after the two of them finished speaking.

"The first two rounds are like warm-ups. Training. Who will do your best during training? This round is the real game. When it comes to the game, you should naturally give your best."

O'Neal looked like a Don, and even the Pelicans had a whisper.

But Barkley and Smith nodded after hearing this.

When a strong team plays a game, because the lower limit is relatively high, it is necessary to have strong enough opponents to make them pay enough attention.

This is a pure mentality problem, which can also explain why the Trail Blazers can tie the Pelicans' regular season but cannot win in the end.

The gap in strength lies where the score difference depends entirely on the Pelicans' seriousness.

The game on the court continues, and the change in scores also provides the most favorable evidence for O'Neal's boasting theory.

In three minutes, the score on the field was 12 to 2.

Five minutes, 20 to 10.

Seven minutes, 25 to 12.

Nine minutes, 30 to 14!

After one quarter, 39 to 19!

The Pelicans actually led the Warriors by as much as 20 points after the first quarter!

During the break during the holidays, Stevens was interviewed on the sidelines. He was in a good mood and was very happy to affirm the performance of the players.

The camera was given to the other side, Durant, Curry and Green were all sitting on the sidelines to rest.

They wiped their sweat, looked up at the score, and felt indescribable.

Their own condition is OK, but the quality of the Pelicans' offense and defense tonight is too terrifying.

Or in other words, the Spurs and the Trail Blazers were probably playing against the Pelicans before!
Chapter completed!
