When the ball went in, Tang Tian felt refreshed in both body and mind.
Every shooting technique was tied to touch.
The farther the range, the more it mattered.
Like when he had played the Spurs before, he had gone 2-for-6 on Deep Three-Pointers, which was only an average Shooting Percentage.
But today, his first Deep Three-Pointer had gone in, and the feeling was completely different from when he had played the Spurs.
The past month of Actual Combat had clearly been effective.
His second Deep Three-Pointer of the first quarter going in also proved that his feeling had been right!
Inside the VIP suite.
Jeanie Buss's flushed face had turned ugly.
Elementary Schooler's Carnival after Elementary Schooler's Carnival had ruined her good mood again and again!
The Pelicans played high-quality defense. Davis provided help defense to disrupt Durant's layup and secured the Defensive Rebound.
Part of it came from the attribute boosts, and part of it came from the flexibility of the One Big Four Small Lineup Stevens had deployed.
The Pelicans' defensive quality over these past few minutes had been very high.
And after Davis grabbed the Defensive Rebound, it was the Pelicans' turn to run in transition.
Tang Tian caught the ball at midcourt, blew past Middleton and Pope in succession, made the layup, and drew a Hand-check Foul from Pope.
After he made the And-one free throw, the score became 19-22, just a three-point gap!
On the Lakers' possession, the Pelicans' defense remained excellent.
James displayed his individual ability, driving into the paint under intense pressure before kicking it out to Pope in the corner.
A perfect three-point opportunity for Pope.
Clang!
Unfortunately, he failed to capitalize on it!
Lopez used his outstanding wingspan to grab the offensive rebound, but Davis met his Second Chance Points
