When Anthony was there, he was criticized by many fans as a cancer, but it turns out that without Anthony, this Knicks would be a real chicken.

Seeing that the game was about to spend a whole quarter, JR Smith began to enter the exhaust mode.

At the opening stage of the second quarter, he scored three three-pointers in a row and led the team to a 10-2 offensive, narrowing the gap to single digits.

Tang Tian sat off the court for only more than three minutes before being replaced by Williams again.

Tang Tian was replaced this time mainly for Smith, and it did work.

Although he gained a little weight, his speed did not decrease much.

After halftime, the Pelicans led the Knicks by 15 points 55-40.

Tang Tian scored 30 points, 6 assists and 3 steals in the first half, and his performance was quite eye-catching.

"What is Tang's career score record?"

When he came back in the second half, Houston had already realized it and did not talk about Hardawei's defense against Tang Tian, ​​but instead talked about other things.

"51 points, obtained when the Thunder."

Bolling replied.

The game was earth-shaking, with Tang Tian fighting against Durant with 51 points and 43 points, which was the best match of the season.

"Do you think he can break the record tonight?"

Houston continued to ask.

"Do you think it's OK?" Bolling is an old fried dough in the commentator's seat. He doesn't jump if there is a pit and rebounds back.

"I think it's hard. I know Mike, and he will definitely target him in the second half." Houston was still straightforward.

Brin smiled and didn't answer.

In fact, he also thought it would be difficult for Tang Tian to break the record, not what Houston said.

Since Tang Tian's dribbling ability improved, it has been more difficult for him to rely on double-teaming to limit him.

If it is a team like the Grizzlies, the subsequent assisted rounds can work, but the Knicks are actually almost there.

When Tang Tian’s dribble was still unstable, their home attempt failed.

So he found it difficult because the Knicks were already 15 points behind in the first half. This game is likely to cost three quarters!

Tang Tian is likely not to play in the fourth quarter. It is already difficult to score 20+ points in one game and two quarters.

After all, Tang Tian is not really Kobe.

While the two were talking, the players from both sides had returned to the field and the second half continued to play.

No adjustment was made to the starters on both sides.

Although Hardaway was a bit miserable by Tang Tian in the first quarter, Woodson still put him in the starting lineup.

This is a kind of trust and a way for him to train players.

When the Knicks came back in the second half, Hardaway came out to catch Felton's pass and took a three-pointer.

Amino's speed was a bit unsatisfactory.

"Swish!"

Hardaway felt good when he came back in the second half, and the first three-pointer he made was penetrated into the net.

Felton shouted at Hardaway and slapped him.

In the Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian and Davis gave the ball to Davis after pick-and-roll. Davis' layup cut through the inside was interfered with and missed by Chandler.

Chandler's defensive skills are still there, and he has also taken advantage of the situation to catch defensive rebounds.

The Knicks advanced to the frontcourt, Felton gave the ball to Hardaway, giving the latter a chance to play Amino alone.

Obviously, this was intentionally arranged by Woodson, to regain Hardaway's confidence and form through the offense.

Hardaway made continuous changes in directions, and made a quick stop jump shot during breakthroughs.

He scored 5 points in a row in the second half!

His personal strength is quite outstanding among rookies, and he has the advantage of misplaced against Amino.

Hardaway was also very excited after scoring the goal and roared in the direction of Tang Tian.

He was so miserable by Tang Tian in the first quarter. After returning from the second half, the five-pointer he scored finally regained his confidence, and he also let out a vent!

The Pelicans players had a discomfort on their faces.

Generally speaking, the emotional venting after scoring the goal is wrong, just like Mutombo's shaking his finger.

Because this way of venting people is provocation.

This provocation reminded them of the remarks before the game by Hardaway.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt. After Holiday signaled his teammates to come, he then knocked the ball to Tang Tian.

This is very obvious, fight, and then fight!

Tang Tian chose to continue fighting.

The five-pointer Hardaway scored in a row helped the Knicks to 10 points, and the Pelicans also need to score now.

With continuous cross steps, Tang Tian broke through from the left.

After Hardaway found his state on the offensive end, the feeling of the defensive end also came. This time he was not shaken away, but followed Tang Tian to the inside.

Evans stuck Chandler and refused to let him come to assist in defense.

Tang Tian flew directly into the layup.

Hardaway wanted to block the cover, but after a body was confronted in the air, it was bounced away directly.

After all, he is a shooting guard, and he is not on the same level as Tang Tian after gaining weight.

Tang Tian sent the ball steadily into the basket.

He broke the Pelicans' second half scoring drought.

The Knicks attacked the frontcourt again, and after Hardaway received the ball, he played Aminu alone.

No matter what kind of tactics are, they will end up with one local one. Hardaway has an advantage over Amino, so he naturally has to play more.

Amino's choice at this time is to prevent the sudden outbreak of the placement.

Hardaway accelerated to kill inward and made a layup.

"Bang!"

Davis came out from his side and gave Hardaway a nail-board hat!

The Pelicans' penalty area is not something you can score casually!

Evans grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Pelicans played a defensive counterattack.

After receiving the ball, Tang Tian rushed to the frontcourt and forced a shot, causing the latter's foul.

Stable penalty hit.

He personally added a 5-0 offensive, helping the Pelicans to widen the gap to 15 points again.

Chandler scored a tip-in in the frontcourt of the Knicks. After Davis received the ball, he gave the ball to Tang Tian.

Didn’t Hardaway yell at Tang Tian? That means the first quarter was not enough!

The Knicks still didn't double-team, and Woodson's intentions were clear tonight. The ball might be able to lose, but Hardaway could not be abandoned.

Tang Tian continued to fight Hardaway alone and once again changed to the backward layup.

This time Chandler made a save to assist in defense successfully, and Tang Tian's layup was interfered with and missed.

However, Evans struggled to grab the offensive rebound, turned around and found Tang Tian and passed it over. After receiving the ball, Tang Tian scored a close-range shot.

The 8th point of the individual quarter!

Hardaway attacked again in the frontcourt and pulled out with a sudden stop.

Continuous failures on the defensive end affect the offensive rhythm, let alone rookies like him.

Looking back, it was Tang Tian, ​​and the fake bet outside the three-point line deceived him for a three-point foul.

In this section, Hardaway was blown away by Tang Tian again.

Tang Tian scored another 21 points in this quarter. At the end of the third quarter, his personal score had reached 51 points!

The Pelicans once again scored a crushing score of 32-17 in this quarter.

By the time the third quarter was over, they were already leading the Knicks by as much as 30 points!

Mike Bryn's expression was a bit complicated at this time.

He seemed to guess the difference in the score difference correctly and would spend three quarters of the game.

But he didn't expect that Tang Tian had already tied his career scoring record in the three quarters...
Chapter completed!
