The Golden Invincible of Basketball

Two days later, the Pelicans and Rockets played their first series at the New Orleans Arena.

The Pelicans started with the Rockets playing, and achieved a double-digit lead at halftime.

However, in the second half Harden began to erupt, helping the Rockets to tie the score two minutes before the end.

At the last moment, Durant scored consecutively to help the Pelicans pass the 104-101 danger, winning the first game of the series.

The game won, but the fans were not so excited or even worried on social media after the game.

To know the series, or the opener of the playoffs, the Pelicans at home have the highest morale, but only won 3 points.

After two days of rest, the second game of the series continued at the New Orleans Arena.

The fans 'worries became a reality. The Rockets' morale was strong, and they stalemate with the Pelicans at the beginning.

The scores of the two teams rose alternately until the end of the game. This time Harden retreated and hit a key three points to help the Rockets beat the Pelicans 112 to 108.

A big score of 1: 1 means that the Rockets have taken home advantage from the Pelicans.

At the press conference after the match, both D'Antoni and Harden's faces couldn't be hidden.

This is the first time they have taken the initiative in a game against the Pelicans.

"What do you think is the key to winning tonight?"

The reporter asked Harden.

"We put all our efforts into the opening, and we knew we would get a chance in the score stalemate, yes, it turns out we did."

Harden nodded.

"You are seventh in the West and now have a 1: 1 draw with the Pelicans second in the West. What does this mean for you?"

The reporter then asked.

意味着 "means we have a chance to complete the Black Seven?"

Harden's answer caused a laugh among reporters.

Harden laughed, and his mood was really good.

"Yes, that means a lot to us. You know we experienced injuries in the second half of the season and then fell to this position. We had to face the strong opponents in the first round, but we have now regained the home advantage. , That puts us in a good position, and it also gives us more confidence. "

Harden went on to add.

你 "What do you mean? Do you have more confidence in the next series? We all know that in the past, whether in the regular season or the playoffs, the Rockets have never had an advantage against the Pelicans."

try {mad1 (\ 'gad2 \');} catch (ex) {} The reporter's follow-up questioning is very targeted.

说 In the past, he naturally refers to the Pelicans led by the Rockets and Tang Tian.

"Yes, we are not the team in the past. You know what I said. The arrival of Russell has improved our strength a lot. Similarly, they are no longer the previous Pelicans, so you are right Yes, we will be more confident. "

Harden's interview after the game was reported by the media.

詹姆斯 "James Harden feels that the Pelicans have weakened, and Tang's retirement makes them no longer that amazing team."

Such news headlines immediately attracted a lot of fans' attention.

Many Pelican fans are angry after watching the news.

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. Tang Tian's retirement and the decline of the Pelicans' strength are inevitable.

But the problem is that these words were spoken from Harden, and now the Pelicans have lost their home advantage.

This feeling is very angry.

"Harden will never be worthy of MVP, he dare to speak like this after Tang retired!"

"That is, when you have the ability, Tang said, ah? I didn't see you win when Tang was here!"

"You are still living in the past? Hurry up and wake up, all in 2020, Tang retired early, you obediently be hacked!"

就是 "That is, some people live in the past forever, and Durant thinks he can compare with Don with an AMVP? You are now a chicken!"

"Durant is better than Tang, but it's much better than your hometown!"

"Then you win! Don't just talk about it, who was killed in the last game?"

"Who were you killed in the first game?"

Uh ...

On social media, because of this news, the Pelicans and Rockets fans have been fighting.

Media always likes to get out of context, plus some verbal rendering.

But I have to say that the rendering effect is very good, and successfully angered the anger of the two teams.

However, no matter how noisy the fans are, the Pelicans are passive at this time.

I was robbed of home advantage and the next two games were away games.

For the Pelicans, this situation is obviously unfavorable. For the players, this situation also puts them under great psychological pressure.

Stevens led the team to Houston two days before the game. This is to allow the players to adapt to the venue in advance, but also to make them decompression in advance.

try {mad1 (\ 'gad2 \');} catch (ex) {} Tian Tian also went to Houston the day before the game.

He watched the team's daily training in the training hall.

He originally worried that the morale of the team would be low, but he soon found that his worry was unnecessary.

Although the psychological pressure is not small, both Durant and Davis have shown a very positive attitude.

Especially Durant, Tang Tian also looked very pleased.

It seems that after being beaten by himself, Durant has really matured a lot.

After training, a reporter interviewed Tang Tian on the sidelines.

"Don, what do you think of James (Harden) 's remarks? He said that the Pelicans are no longer the previous Pelicans ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The reporter naturally asked the hottest on social media now topic.

"Now I am different from me when I play."

Tang Tian's answer left the reporter unresponsive.

But after thinking about it for a moment, you can understand the meaning of this sentence. Tang Tian is taking the analogy of Harden's words.

但是 "But I can still easily get 20+ points in the NBA games, you know, I'm talking about the masters."

Tang Tian said with a smile.

The reporter couldn't help laughing after hearing this, Tang Tian pretended to be a force.

"Just a joke, I know why James (Harden) said that. He wanted to express his optimism. He thinks the Rockets will be the team that is more likely to advance, but I think I have to remind him. This is a team that has completed four consecutive championships. They rank second in the Western Conference in the regular season. "

Tangtian is very powerful this time, and he has an analogy of his own example, which is also very convincing.

"Do you mean, the Pelicans still have a better chance to advance?"

Reporter asked.

当然 "Of course, their goal is five consecutive championships, and I believe that they are full of confidence in them both at the beginning of the season and now."

Tang Tian also replied with certainty.

That's the difference between being a player and management.

As a player, this is obviously a stand-up, but as a management, it is an expression of confidence and a cheer for the team.

Away away, and facing the Rockets, the Pelicans need more momentum.
