Chapter 1273 Durant and Scarlett are the closest
Stevens' expression was desperate, and he could only replace Siakam.
However, without Davis' restraint, Tang Tian's defensive pressure has obviously become stronger.
With many double-teams, Tang Tian's scoring efficiency inevitably declined.
On the other hand, James is in a hot state on the Lakers, especially James, without Davis's defense, he can play easily.
The score difference was slightly widened, and the Lakers also defended their advantage in the final quarter, and finally defeated the Pelicans 108-96, winning the first game of the Western Conference Finals.
The two sides played evenly in the half-quarter after the opening, and Davis' injury directly changed the situation on the field.
After the game, fans naturally had a hot discussion on social media.
"If you compare Gasol to being injured by a bullet, then if Davis is missing now, it will directly hit the thigh artery!"
"Stevens: It's so hard for me!"
"Pelicans: We just want to play a healthy and healthy game, please stop arranging such scripts!"
"This seems to be LeBron's footsteps? Davis's injury moment.jpg"
"How could my emperor be able to take a step?! You are deliberately shaking!"
"That's right, my emperor's strength needs to be used as a foothold? Didn't you see that Davis stepped on it himself?!"
"This kind of dark man is really disgusting. If you can't beat him, you'll say you're footing! Trash! Waste!"
"James footsteps Granger.jpg"
"James footsteps Ibaka.jpg"
"James footsteps Jimmy Butler.jpg"
"James footsteps Billups.jpg"
"James footsteps Curry.jpg"
“…”
"Okay, okay, everyone knows."
"No matter what, the Pelicans have no luck this year's playoffs!"
"There is no way. The Pelicans have won three consecutive championships. If they win four consecutive championships, God will not be able to bear it!"
"Justice will eventually win, and the Avengers are the final winner!!! ∑(??Д??ノ)ノ"
"Tell me loudly, who is the champion?!"
“———”
...
Davis conducted a CT and MRI examination after the game.
Like Gasol, he was just an ankle sprain, without any fractures and no ligaments torn.
This was a blessing in disguise, but because he stepped on James' instep, his condition was even worse than Gasol and he would be out for at least half a month.
In other words, even if the Pelicans can play seven games with the Lakers, Davis will not have time to make a comeback.
Without Davis, Jamdu is in a hot state, and it is really difficult for the Pelicans to pass the Western Conference Finals.
"The game is not over yet, we need to win this series, not only for ourselves, for the fans, but also for the ad."
The second game and the first game have two days off.
In addition to daily training in the past two days, Stevens has also been using similar words to boost the morale of the team.
Davis' absence has a big blow to the team's morale, and the pressure on the Pelicans players will be very high when they are away.
Tang Tian also did the same thing as Stevens.
But neither of them tried very well.
This has nothing to do with personal speaking skills, but facing opponents of the Lakers, Davis' absence has a great impact.
Two days later, the second game between the Pelicans and the Lakers in the West Finals continued to open at the Staples Center.
The fans at the scene were enthusiastic.
And what's interesting is that many fans at the scene did not wear the T-shirt distributed by the stadium, but put on Avengers clothes.
There are Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, and even the Hulk and Black Widow.
The live photographer was also very naughty and gave the Black Widow a close-up before the game started.
He should be a model with a convex figure, and there were whistling sounds and whistles on the scene.
Durant, who was warming up, looked a little complicated when he saw this scene, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
Because of Barkley's words, the Lakers were regarded as the Avengers, and he and James were also regarded as the Avengers.
Judging from the actions of the fans on the scene, such remarks are well known.
Durant enjoyed it a little, too.
After all, there is a Scarlett in the Avengers. This is the most mentioned time he and Scarlett have been recently mentioned together.
After the warm-up, the opening ceremony was entered.
The lineups on both sides were expected.
The Lakers still have the same regular lineup as last time, and Wade is still the team's starting point guard.
Davis can't play on the Pelicans, and Siakam serves as the starting power forward in his place.
Amid the cheers of fans, Lopez turned the ball back to the Lakers' half, officially opening the curtain for the second game between the two sides.
In the Lakers' first offensive leg, James broke through with the ball and attracted Green to shrink. He passed the ball to Durant, who stopped and pulled out his hand.
"Swish!"
Like in the first game, Durant scored the first place for the Lakers.
Tang Tian was double-teamed by three people on the Pelicans. He distributed the ball to Brogden in time, but unfortunately Brogden failed to make a three-pointer.
James protected the defensive rebound, the Lakers counterattacked defensively, Durant followed up quickly, and received James' pass and flew into the layup.
He scored 4 points in a row at the beginning and was a little excited tonight.
Tang Tian continued to be double-teamed by three people in the frontcourt, and this time the ball was handed down to Green.
Tang Tian is also trying to find a way to break double-team.
Under tremendous pressure, it is normal for a young player like Brogden to miss the accuracy. Green is a veteran who has experienced big scenes and he is more confident.
"Bang!"
Perhaps it was because the touch was contagious, and Green couldn't make a three-pointer!
After the Pelicans started, they failed to seize two consecutive opportunities, and the Lakers defended Tang Tian even more unscrupulously!
And what's even more deadly is the Lakers' defensive counterattack. This time, Lopez won the defensive rebound and passed the ball directly in the backcourt for a long pass.
Wade was like a dream back to the peak, and after getting the ball in the frontcourt, he was as fast as lightning.
With a flash of kung fu, he had already reached the frontcourt and made a big layup to score directly!
The Lakers played the Pelicans 6-0 at the beginning!
The cheers from Staples Center were already blown up.
Davis was injured, and the Lakers' theoretical probability of advancing soared. Now the game starts like this, this is no longer a theory!
After three minutes of the game, Green finally hit the second shot from the outside.
But at this time the score on the court was 10-3, and the Lakers firmly grasped the situation.
This also became a microcosm of both sides' first half. After the half-time, the Lakers led the Pelicans by as much as 15 points 58-43.
"The absence of Ad's team has a great impact on the Pelicans, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of psychology!"
In the commentary seat, O'Neal sighed.
As Tang Chui, he must be inclined to win by the Pelicans.
"The Pelicans are not able to fire from the outside, the Lakers are crazy about double-teaming Don, and the Pelicans are really difficult tonight."
Kenny Smith also nodded and agreed.
"What a pity. They had the opportunity to complete the four consecutive championships, but now they lost to injuries!"
Barkley sighed.
The Pelicans' previous performance is impressive.
But as they analyzed, injuries destroyed the team, and the psychological pressure made the Pelicans unable to open the outside.
All this caused the situation that even if Tang Tian had the strength of the best in history, he could not perform under the heavy team.
Chapter completed!
