"Tang 'True King of the Fourth Quarter' Tian!"

"That scoring explosion instantly reminded me of the Pelicans' series against the Spurs last season—24 points in one quarter, 27 in another! These 16 points? Easy stuff, nothing to it!"

"Am I the only one who thinks Tang has gotten stronger? Even though he scored less, I felt like he relied more on a scorching hot hand in last year's Playoffs. But this game, the Thunder genuinely had no answer for him. Even double-teams didn't work."

"If Tang Tian isn't MVP this year, I'll
