Chapter 613 Durant's season reimbursement
Tang Tian’s answer attracted heated discussions from the outside world.
Obviously, what he said was more targeted than the so-called "referee report" released by the league.
Many fans have tweeted the league official about this issue.
Because changing the penalty during the game is more effective than holding the referee accountable after the game.
Moreover, Tang Tian also said that it was the last two minutes.
There are 48 minutes of basketball games, but many fierce games only determine the outcome in the last two minutes.
If such a change can be made, the fairness of the game will be greatly improved.
Under public pressure, Xiao Hua answered this question as a representative of the alliance.
"We'll try in the Development League, allowing the coach to challenge the referee's decision, and we'll see if that's right for the league."
This answer inspired the fans.
Although it was not implemented immediately, it seemed at least a positive signal.
Tang Tian was also a little surprised when he saw this news, but he seemed to be able to understand it.
Last season, Xiao Hua blindly did his own thing, which led to his bad image among fans.
He has learned from his mistakes.
The next night, the Pelicans ushered in a game with the Nets.
This is also their first New Year game.
Before this game, Davis conducted shooting training on the court, and his comeback would not look too far.
The Pelicans and the Nets made a deal during the offseason. Before the game, Tang Tian also went over to say hello to Anderson.
Although the Nets have a poor record, Anderson is in a good position, averaging 18+ points per game to hit a career high.
The tree is moving dead and the people are moving alive. For Anderson, the summer deal is absolutely good for him.
The Pelicans are determined to win a row, but the Nets play much better than they thought.
Anderson scored three-pointers at the beginning, and then Boyan Bogdanovic on the bench also scored three-pointers in a row.
At the end of the half, the Nets led the Pelicans 50-44.
The turning point of the game occurred in the second half. The Pelicans adjusted their tactics and Tang Tian began to play Anderson alone in an infinite misalignment.
You are a good person, but the NBA game is cruel.
The Pelicans also took advantage of the situation to cross the score and finally won the game 106-91.
Anderson contributed the Nets' most 20 points, and Boyn, who was on the bench, threw 6 three-pointers and scored 18 points.
Tang Tian contributed 22 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, with a quasi-triple double-digit data.
Although Christmas has passed, the Pelicans starter is used to giving Tang Tian a board, and his rebounding data has increased significantly compared to before.
After the game, Tang Tian stayed in the stadium to practice shooting.
Although he won the game, his feel was not good tonight. This kind of extra training after the game is a good way to adjust the feel of the shooting.
But at this moment, he found that he was not the only one who stayed.
There are also team consultant Steve Nash and young player Dinwiddie.
After teaching the training methods to the Pelicans players during the offseason, Nash actually didn't come to the team many times.
This is also the freedom the team gives him.
He came to the team today, but he didn't expect to stay and coach Dinwiddie to shoot after the game.
This is relatively rare.
After Tang Tian practiced several sets of shots, he saw that Nash was still patiently guiding Dinwiddie there, and followed him over.
He watched on the sidelines for a while and soon discovered something special.
Nash is not only coaching Dinwiddie to shoot, but also teaching him passing skills and game experience on the court.
It doesn't look like a shooting coach, but it looks like a mentor.
Nash noticed that Tang Tian was looking at him, turned around and smiled at him, gave a few words to Dinwiddie, and then walked to the sidelines.
"Your shooting is very stable, and it is normal to occasionally misalign. Don't worry too much."
Nash thought Tang Tian was waiting for him to talk about shooting, so he came over and spoke.
"I know."
Tang Tian nodded with a smile, and Nash misunderstood his meaning.
"Do you have a good eye for Spencer?"
He then asked.
"He? Yes, he is a very serious child, just like Golan."
Nash nodded with a smile.
Tang Tian looked at Nash in surprise. He didn't expect that the latter would compare Dinwiddie with Dragic.
Dragic is a disciple taught by Nash step by step.
"He will gain a foothold in this league."
Nash continued.
Tang Tian nodded and said nothing.
Although I don't know what happened between Nash and Dinwiddie, Nash is indeed guiding Dinwiddie.
This is obviously a good thing for the Pelicans.
Compared with the current substitute point guard Kerr, Dinwiddie's upper limit is obviously higher.
History has changed, and it is obviously more difficult to win the championship now than in history.
If the Pelicans want to stand out, they must be strong enough in every position, including the bench.
When the Pelicans and Nets finished the game, the Thunder also competed with the Rockets on another court.
The Thunder star Durant made a comeback in this game, and this is another game where the third brother beats the former eldest brother and second brother.
The Thunder were strong last season, and the Rockets were obviously not an opponent. This season, the Rockets' strength was enhanced while the Thunder was weak, and both sides had the power to fight.
This game was also very intense.
Although Durant has just returned from injury, he has played very hard.
In addition to the Thunder's poor condition, there is another more important reason, the Pelicans beat the Rockets!
And not only did Davis not play, Tang Tian also got a triple-double!
He experienced a despair season last season and suffered another injury during the offseason. He finally made a comeback and really wanted to get back all the losses last season.
So he must not lose if Tang Tian wins!
During the halftime break, the team doctor found Durant and reminded him to pay attention to his right foot and not to exert excessive force.
Durante nodded and didn't care much.
The two teams were in a stalemate until the last moment.
Durant's three-pointer helped the Thunder establish a key three-point lead, but Harden immediately made a step back three-pointer to tie the score.
Just as Durant was about to stand up again, an unexpected situation occurred on the field.
Beverly had a very aggressive top defense move when switching to him.
Durant was overturned, covering his right foot with his hands and his expression was painful.
That's where he was injured during the offseason.
After communicating with Durant, the team doctor brought a wheelchair and Durant left the field in a wheelchair.
This emergencies make the outcome of the game meaningless.
The MRI report after the game was positive. Durant had an injury to his right foot. This time he was injured and he was forced to undergo surgery.
This means that he will miss all games this season and be reimbursed for the season.
He wanted to compete with Tang Tian again, but he didn't expect that he had not won this time and wanted to fight back, so he had to wait for another season.
With Durant's season reimbursement, the Thunder basically withdrew from the championship team.
Chapter completed!
