Chapter 617+8: Implementing the Mamba Spirit (2-in-1)

It was at this time that the coalition announced the results of the third round of voting.

Tang Tian beat James (970,000 votes) and Curry (950,000 votes) with 1.7 million votes to continue to be the third round of votes.

There are four rounds of All-Star voting, with the fourth round being the final round and generally the one with the largest increase.

Tang Tian's votes far exceed others, and he has locked the vote king in advance, and basically broke his vote number last year.

The Pelicans' next game is on the road against the Lakers, and they arrived at the Staples Center a day early to begin practice.

Training is open to the public.

After the practice, Williams and Davis declined media interviews and went straight into the locker room.

The reporters turned around, and they all flocked to Tang Tian's side.

The two big news recently, one is the trade rumors of Cousins and Davis, and the other is that Tang Tian has a huge lead in the All-Star vote.

"I have to thank all the fans who voted, they are the best fans in the world and what motivates me to play, I love them."

When Tang Tian was asked what he thought of the ballot results, he not only expressed his gratitude, but also blew a wave of his fans by the way.

There is no problem at all with this wave, and he now has almost twice as many votes as James and Curry, which is a phenomenal thing.

"What do you think of Davis' recent performances?"

After asking about the game and the All-Star vote, it was only natural for the reporter to ask questions related to Davis.

This is a relatively sensitive issue, and other reporters also looked at Tang Tian directly.

Tang Tian was not angry, not even unhappy, but smiled.

"I'm not worried about him, his talent and quality are there, and he'll adjust quickly."

Tang Tian's answer sounded a little polite, but he said it very naturally, and the reporter nodded unconsciously after listening to it.

"We know he's been caught up in trade rumors lately, are you worried about that happening?"

The reporter then asked.

"As I understand it, we're not looking for a trade, we're on a great team right now, we're the second-best team in the West right now."

Tang Tian didn't comment too much on this, he just laid out the most basic facts.

But that's the best response, and the second-best team in the West is unlikely to take the initiative to try to make a trade.

The so-called trade rumors are just the team's management rejecting a Cousins trade for Davis.

And they're not the Raptors of the regular season Dragons in history, who reached the Western Conference semifinals last season as sixth in the West.

This is enough to give confidence to the management and the fans.

The next night, the Pelicans-Lakers game officially kicked off at the Staples Center.

The attendance was full.

The two most profitable teams in the league, the Knicks and Lakers, will never be less crowded, regardless of the team's record.

Zhang Weiping and Yang Jian also came to the scene.

The Lakers signed Yi Jianlian in the offseason, and this game was also the first Chinese derby of the new season.

"I saw the motorcycle you gave to your teammates, and that's pretty cool."

Before the game, Kobe Bryant chatted with Tang Tian in the midfield.

"I rode Harley when I was shooting commercials for Adi, and that was a good feeling, but the league has a ban on riding privately, so you have to remind your teammates."

Kobe Bryant was afraid that Tang Tian was a young player and didn't understand this part, so he came over to remind him.

"I know, I told them, it's just collectibles."

Tang Tian smiled and nodded.

If he doesn't say it, Whiteside, who has no money to buy a car, probably takes it back and uses it as a means of transportation.

After a brief pre-match warm-up, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starters of both sides appeared one after another.

On the Pelicans' side, Holiday missed the game due to the flu, and Kerr replaced him as the starting point guard, partnering Tang Tian in the backcourt.

Ariza and Davis up front, and center Whiteside, are the regular starting lineups for the season.

On the Lakers' side, Jeremy Lin and Kobe Bryant partnered in the backcourt, Shampert and Yi Jianlian partnered in the front, and center Tyson Chandler.

After Chandler's return, the Lakers' record has improved, and now they are working hard to make the playoffs.

Amid the cheers of the fans, Yi Jianlian jumped to win Davis and gave the Lakers the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.

Bryant singled Ariza in the front court and turned back.

"Bang dang!"

His first shot popped out of the frame.

His stats and shooting percentage this season have dropped significantly compared to last season, after all, he is also a person who is close to 38 years old.

While there hasn't been a devastating ankle injury like in history, a natural dip in form is inevitable.

Whiteside defends the defensive rebound.

Tang Tian held the ball in the front court to greet Davis's blocking, and broke through the inside line after dismantling.

Davis felt cold in the past game, and Yi Jianlian directly chose the bag clip.

Tang Tian returned the ball to Davis at the free-throw line for a good chance to score.

Davis takes aim at the frame.

"Bang dang!"

The ball's trajectory is very positive, but unfortunately the force is a little stronger, and the ball bounces out of the frame.

Chandler defends the defensive rebound.

D'Antoni smiled when he saw this.

The Lakers have lost a lot of games they shouldn't have lost, and if they want to get back into the playoffs, it's necessary to beat a team like the Pelicans in the top half.

And winning is also a big boost to the team's morale.

Davis' hand is still cold, which is a very positive sign that they are winning.

The Lakers attacked in the frontcourt, and Bryant continued to play with the ball on his back, with the same trademark turn and lean.

"Bang dang!"

Or striking iron.

However, Chandler struggled to grab the offensive rebound at this time, and then gave it to Kobe.

Bryant leaned in on Ariza and leaned back to the baseline.

The ball went over Ariza's fingertips and across a high parabola.

"Huh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Bryant's third shot finally went in.

Most people only know about the four Yanghua and three irons, but in fact, there are many forms of Yanghe iron, and the three Yanghua two irons are also one of them.

The Lakers took the lead.

The Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian burst into the interior and continued to be trapped, this time it was Kobe Bryant who came over.

Tang Tian distributed the ball to Ariza in the open position.

Yi Jianlian directly let Davis go over to fight Ariza.

Ariza gives the ball to Davis.

Davis's mid-range chance, he aimed at the frame and shot again.

The ball's trajectory is very positive, and the strength is just right.

"Bang!"

But after the ball went in, it bounced out again.

Chandler jammed Whiteside, and Yi Jianlian recovered the basket to protect the defensive rebound.

Davis missed two consecutive shots after the opening period.

When the second goal was missed, Davis shook his head visibly in frustration.

He had regained his self-confidence under Tang Tian's persuasion, but luck didn't seem to be on his side.

"Hey! AD, keep your confidence, if you don't shoot, you won't have the next goal, Mamba spirit. ”

Tang Tian noticed Davis's mood change, and shouted at him as he retreated.

Davis only hit 2 irons!

Kobe Bryant is not all three to two iron, four to three iron.

This Mamba spirit cannot only be said, but also implemented!

And after Davis regained his confidence, he felt significantly better than in his previous games.

As for not making it, it's all a matter of luck.

It's normal to have one or two of these balls.

Davis is so cute, he doesn't look like an African.

Davis nodded after listening, he still trusted Tang Tian very much.

The Lakers' offense, Jeremy Lin and Yi Jianlian cooperated, and after the breakthrough, the ball was returned to Yi Jianlian.

Kerr's return defense was a little slow, and Yi Jianlian's three-point shot at the top of the arc was not disturbed too much.

"Huh!"

Basketball goes to the net.

Yi Jianlian's three-point shot, in!

After following Tang Tian's advice and starting to move to the spatial No. 4 position, his performance as a role player got better and better.

There was a burst of whistles at the scene.

The Lakers started 5-0!

Tang Tian continued to hold the ball in the front court and motioned for his teammates to pull away.

The team had a bad start and needed him to step up and break the situation.

Shampert is a high-quality defender, he is half a step away from Tang Tian, and the distance is very good.

Tang Tian put on a three-threat pose, a feint to press forward, and then pulled it directly outside the three-point line.

This time it was very sudden and decisive, and Shampert was a little out of pace.

"Huh!"

Basketball goes through the net.

There weren't too many bells and whistles, and the goal was completely unreasonable.

There was a stirring at the scene.

The Lakers started with a good momentum, but Tang Tian immediately poured cold water on them.

Tang Tian glanced at Davis when he scored, and his expression seemed to be saying: If you see it, you can score if you shoot.

Bryant leaned high on Ariza in the front court to continue to ask for the ball, and after turning around, he made his trademark backward shot.

"Bang dang!"

Ariza's defense was well done, and Bryant's fourth shot ended in a hit.

The condition required for the transformation of tri-a-ferric into tetra-a-triferro-iron is high temperature, 1400 degrees Celsius.

How does the temperature come about? Friction generates heat, and the number of collisions between the ball and the basket is high, and the temperature is naturally high.

Whiteside and Chandler scramble under the basket, Whiteside poked the ball high, and Davis received the rebound with a long arm.

Tang Tian's words reminded him, and he began to start from defense.

The Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian changed direction to break through, scored the ball after the confrontation between Yi Jianlian in the penalty area, and also caused Yi Jianlian's defensive foul.

Hit a free throw against interference.

Tang Tian scored 6 points in a row in the opening game to help the Pelicans overtake the score.

The Lakers' offense, Jeremy Lin burst into the basket and gave it to Shampert, who broke through the basket and missed the shot.

"This ball should be given to Kobe, isn't it a blind fight like this, you see Kobe Bryant has a chance to play one there."

The Lakers didn't score in a row, and Zhang Weiping was also a little anxious in the commentary seat.

The Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian's breakthrough attracted the three-man package, and his consecutive scores put a lot of pressure on the Lakers.

He gave the ball to Davis, who had another chance to score.

Davis made a shot, and he was noticeably quicker this time than before.

Obviously, Tang Tian's words, coupled with the demonstration of continuous hits, made his self-confidence completely return.

"Huh!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

Davis's third shot, finally in!

After the goal, Davis reached out and clenched his fist, his face full of confidence.

It was a very important goal for him.

Tang Tian smiled and pointed at Davis as he retreated.

That's right, if you have a mamba in your heart, you dare to shoot, and you will score goals if you dare to shoot.

Bryant continued to ask for the ball in the low post, and Jeremy Lin put the ball in, and after a series of turns, he shook off Ariza's back.

"Kobe Bryant shot, good shot!"

In Zhang Weiping's commentary, Kobe Bryant's leaning back shot again.

"Bang dang!"

Basketball jumps out of the hoop.

"Oops, didn't get in! Although I didn't score, the tactics of this ball were played, and it was completely a matter of feeling when I didn't score. ”

Zhang Weiping's explanation is still the same, but he gets to the point.

Kobe Bryant had a bad hand tonight, shooting 1-of-5 from the opening line.

Looking back, Tang Tian suddenly gave it to Davis again.

Yi Jianlian had to pounce.

Davis dribbled a shot, collected the ball, dribbled it inside, accelerated and pulled the ball directly with one hand.

"Bang!"

A powerful one-handed clasp.

His speed is at the top of the big man, and with that size, he really rushes up, and no one on the Lakers dares to stop him except for Chandler, who was stuck by Whiteside.

That's the impact and the difference that comes with pitching.

The Lakers didn't dare to let him go again, and his own self-confidence was completely played.

10-5, the Pelicans got off to a bad start, but after the adjustment, they played the Lakers 10-0.

The Lakers' offense, Jeremy Lin's throw after the breakthrough didn't score, and Chandler's rebound didn't score.

Whiteside added another defensive rebound.

Tang Tian held the ball in the front court and directly signaled Davis to ask for the ball in the low post.

Davis has been in the doldrums for so many games, and this time he has finally found his form, and it is time for him to play more.

The stats of a regular season game are no longer so important to Tang Tian, but they are important to Davis now.

If the Pelicans want to go far in the playoffs, they can't do without Davis.

Davis played Yi Jianlian with his back in the low post.

Yi Jianlian's low-post defense improved a lot, and Davis didn't get an easy shot.

He chose to shoot after turning, and Yi Jianlian made a save to interfere.

"Bang dang!"

There was a lot of pressure on Yi Jianlian, and Davis's shot was a little short, and the ball bounced off the right edge of the basket.

But in the next second, Davis threw off Yi Jianlian to the basket and directly grabbed the offensive rebound and dunked to score!

Yi Jianlian's defense has improved a lot, but the NBA is a league that talks about talent after all, and Davis's second reaction speed reflects the talent to the fullest.

He had already scored six points on 3-of-6 shooting in the quarter.

After this button, Davis turned around and took the initiative to find Tang Tian and high-five.

If Tang Tian hadn't encouraged him and took the initiative to feed him the ball to play, he would not have been able to get back to his state so quickly.

Kobe Bryant broke through the front court and scored a goal to help the Lakers stabilize the situation on the court.

Looking back, Tang Tian suddenly gave it to Davis again.

Davis caught the ball this time at the three-point line.

He was decisive when he received the ball.

It's really a feeling, and it's a self-confidence.

Davis made six shots in the quarter, removing the two balls that were dunked and making 1 of 4 shots for the remainder.

The feel is not more, not less, just the same as the four Yanghua three irons, but it is actually not good.

But he really implemented the Mamba spirit under Tang Tian's teaching.

If you don't shoot, you will never score the next goal, and if you do, you may come!

The ball spun through the air and streaked a high parabola.

"Huh!"

With a crisp sound, Davis's three-pointer went into the net!

15 to 7!

The Pelicans take an 8-point lead!

It was also Davis' 9th point in the first quarter of the game!

After implementing the spirit of Mamba, Davis swept away the previous sluggish performance and ushered in a strong rebound!

PS: I see that some people keep mentioning things that are getting harder, so I'll focus on responding to them.

Last season, the protagonist was brushing the scoring champion.,That's why I don't care about the shooting rate.,This season's goal is MVP.,To win, of course, you have to talk about efficiency.,Win more.,I've posted in the previous chapters that the protagonist's hit rate in the first month of the season was 50%+.。

Also, before last season, the protagonist was a role player, and before this season, he was the scoring champion, and the defensive intensity is certainly not at the same level.

As for the key ball to hit the iron,I can't do this either.,Write in.,You say the protagonist has his own halo.,100% of the lore.,Can't write in.,You say the protagonist can't do it, I'll force the difficulty.,Do you want the ball to spin and jump on the basket after the shot.,And then time stands still.,Stay between in and out?

And the competitions I write are all win-oriented, isn't that enough?

And I mentioned it more than N times in my book that if the Pelicans want to go far in the playoffs, they can't rely on the protagonist alone, so Davis and they all have to play.

There is only one ball, do you want Tang Tian to continue to occupy all the balls, and then become the next teammate?
