Chapter 682 3 to 1

Time is no longer enough for the Spurs, and it will be useless for anyone to be the head coach at this time.

Popovich finally replaced Ginobili to fight the last three-pointer.

Ginobili's shot was very straight, but the shot was heavy, and the ball hit the back of the basket and bounced high, and Davis grabbed the defensive rebound.

The Spurs no longer fouls, and both sides stopped fighting.

Davis gave the ball to Tang Tian. Tang Tianyun passed the half and threw the ball into the air after the final whistle.

The Pelicans finally won the second game, rewriting the big score of the series to 1-1.

Tang Tian scored 24 points in the fourth quarter, scoring 45 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists in the whole game, almost hitting a 50+ on the Spurs.

Davis also had 15 points, 11 rebounds, 4 blocks and 2 steals, and Jokic scored 4 three-pointers, contributing a playoff high of 16 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

Leonard, Ginobili and Gasol all scored 20+ points, but in the end they failed to help the Spurs win.

After the game, the members of the two teams made a handshake gift.

Popovich and Tang Tian looked at him meaningfully when they hugged him.

It seems that in the next game, the old man will find a new way to deal with the Pelicans.

After the game, the players celebrated in the locker room.

This time it was Jokic who suffered. He was shy and was pressed to the ground by his teammates and stripped of the bath towel.

Tang Tian saw this scene and shook his head.

I don’t know when the Pelicans’ atmosphere will start, but it will develop in a bad direction!

Whiteside was not involved in the celebration, and he went back shortly after taking a shower.

He only played 25 minutes in this game, scoring 6 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, which was obviously not what he wanted.

But this is something that cannot be avoided during competition. After all, there is only one center position, but Whiteside and Jokic are two.

After the first two games, the Pelicans and the Spurs will move to San Antonio to compete in the next two games.

For the Pelicans, the worst outcome they can accept is winning one in two games.

In that case, whether it is playing Tianwang Mountain or tiebreaker, they have home advantage.

Winning the second game is crucial, and they are confident that they can do this.

After two days of rest, the Pelicans flew to San Antonio with confidence.

Tang Tian is very familiar with this city, and this is also the playoffs he plays here as a member of the Pelicans and a visiting team player.

That feeling is indeed a bit different.

During the opening ceremony, when Tang Tian was introduced, San Antonio fans did not boo Tang Tian anymore.

After knowing the truth, they gave Tang Tian a cheer.

Tang Tian also waved his hand to greet the fans.

Misunderstandings and other things have long been diluted by time, and he has no hatred for fans.

Now that he returns here, he is a rival and a contributor to the Spurs' two consecutive championships, former FMVP.

After the first two games, the game was tied 1-1, and this game was very important for both sides.

At the beginning of the game, both sides gave their all, and the situation on both sides was the same as in the previous two games, and it was very stalemate at the beginning.

Both sides tied 21 after the first quarter, except for the low score, they were tied.

During the bench in the second quarter, Ginobili became the winner again. He scored 7 points and 3 assists in just a few minutes, helping the Spurs widen the gap to double digits.

He really fully experienced the four words "Farewell to Die".

Jokic's feel on the Pelicans is obviously not as good as the previous two games.

After returning from the second quarter, Tang Tian continued to show his super strength and scored continuously to help the Pelicans chase points.

However, at the critical moment, Whiteside suffered consecutive defensive losses, which made the Pelicans' momentum of chasing points cut off.

When Tang Tian saw this, he was no longer angry, but he couldn't stop being disappointed.

The last time he went to Whiteside's house, he thought Whiteside was the kind of player who could take on big responsibilities.

But now it seems that he really found himself overestimating Whiteside.

And it was him who helped Whiteside join the Pelicans and then helped him gain a foothold in the Pelicans.

That kind of disappointment really can't stop it.

In the second half, with the performance of Tang Tian and Davis, the Pelicans recovered the gap to 10 points.

However, in the critical last quarter, Jokic had not yet found the touch, and the Pelicans finally failed to catch up with the score and lost the third game.

After the game, Williams found Whiteside to talk again, but this time it was not very effective in terms of the dialogue.

After two days of rest, the fourth game between the Pelicans and the Spurs continued to play in the Att Arena.

Williams made adjustments to the roster in this game, and he replaced the underperformed Whiteside as the team's center with Jokic.

This adjustment works pretty well.

Although Jokic's touch is not very good, his passes and pick-and-roll have helped the Pelicans a lot.

After the first quarter, the Pelicans led 26-20 for the first time.

But Whiteside was really not good at thinking. After being demoted to the bench, he did not reflect and still played badly.

The Spurs also tied and overtook the score.

In the second half, Williams didn't use him, but McGee.

McGee is very efficient in a limited time, and the Pelicans are only 5 points behind the Spurs when they finish the third quarter.

In the most critical quarter, Tang Tian continued to score efficiently. He looked at 18 points in this quarter, which was quite like a king in the final quarter.

But this time, someone from the Spurs stood up and competed with him.

Leonard, after being suppressed by Tang Tian for three consecutive games, finally broke out and he also scored 13 points in the last quarter.

His outstanding performance helped the Spurs stabilize the situation, and Jokic still couldn't find his touch, so the Spurs finally defeated the Pelicans 103-95.

Tang Tiankong scored 30 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.

After winning this game, the Spurs have already led the Pelicans 3-1 in the big score, and have won the match point after four games.

The Pelicans failed to achieve the goal they set before and failed to win a victory in San Antonio.

Now, they only have one game left to be eliminated at the fastest time.

After this game, fans also felt sorry for the Pelicans on social media.

"If the Pelicans were not reversed in the first game, if Whiteside would not be so enchanting, the Pelicans would be the one who leads 3-1 now!"

"Popovich is really cruel. He grabbed the Pelicans and made the game like this. It can only be said that Williams on the other side is still too young!"

"Yes, Williams has been late for several timeouts. His coaching skills are indeed a bit worse on the playoff stage."

"It's a pity that Tang is. He has performed very well in these games, it's a pity!"

"But I think the Pelicans should not be discouraged. They lost to the Grizzlies last year and took revenge this year. Even if they lost to the Spurs this year, they still have a chance to take revenge next year."
