Chapter 546: The Best Birthday Present (Second Update!) )
Despite the loss, the home fans cheered and applauded the Pelicans players after the game.
The Pelicans really did their best, and victory or defeat was no longer the only criterion.
Tang Tian felt the enthusiasm of the fans and bowed to the fans with the other team members.
It is enough to have such fans.
After the competition, Tang Tian underwent an MRI.
Because he didn't use his left hand much after immobilization, the results of the examination were good news.
If he recovers well in the past two days, he will be able to play without a splint in the next game.
This is undoubtedly great news for the Pelicans.
After the game, when he returned to the villa, the little lion came over like a cat to smack Tang Tian's legs.
Felines are relatively well-behaved to their parents, Tang Tian and Olsen raised it since childhood, and for the lion cub, it is its parents.
Olsen was distressed when he saw Tang Tian coming back wearing a splint.
However, she knew that this was Tang Tian's profession, so she didn't say anything, turned around and went into the kitchen to make food.
Tang Tian was lying on the sofa, enjoying the rare leisure time before the bones were about to fall apart.
Next season, he'll have to add a strong offensive skill anyway, otherwise it's really a loss to meet the Grizzlies again.
Even if you can barely get past it, this kind of scarred one will most likely be eaten by the team behind you.
Just as he was thinking, there was a soft cat meow.
The guy who is beautiful and short actually showed his face when the little lion was there.
And what Tang Tian didn't expect was that the little lion used to play with it.
It seems that during the time he played in the playoffs, they finally became friends to play with.
That's a good thing.
But as he was laughing, Ying Short began to chase the lion cub, and there was a sound of things falling over in the room.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Other people's families are cat and dog wars, but his family is going to be cat and lion wars.
Fortunately, Olsen heard the voice and came in and shouted, and Ying Short and the little lion obediently went out to play.
It doesn't matter if you are a lion or a cat, you have to admit it obediently when you encounter a tiger.
"Honey, it's your birthday in two days."
Olsen brought the fruit.
When Tang Tian heard what Olsen said, he remembered that his birthday was approaching.
Playing this playoff game with the Grizzlies, I really forgot everything.
After Olsen finished speaking, he pulled Tang Tian up, and he followed him into the kitchen, only to find that Olsen had already made a big birthday cake.
"I know you're going to be competing that day, so I'm going to take it upon myself to help you celebrate your birthday early, you won't be angry, right?"
Tang Tian smiled and touched Olsen's head, then lowered his head and kissed him.
"Thank you, Elizabeth."
Olson really doesn't have a bit of a rich temper, this kind of good wife and mother-type woman is really rare in the United States.
After celebrating his birthday in New Orleans in advance, Tang Tian went to Memphis with the team the next day.
The sixth match was on May 20, which was Tang Tian's birthday.
However, this game was played in Memphis, and it would be a rare experience for Tang Tian to play on his birthday night.
But again, if he loses the game, his birthday will become a very bad memory.
Upon arrival in Memphis, Williams arranged for his daily shooting practice.
When the training was over, Tang Tian returned to the locker room and was greeted by the heckling and cheers of his teammates.
His birthday, this group of Pelicans teammates also knows.
After all, Ferrari's friendship will be known if you don't know.
His teammates gave him gifts one after another.
An oversized gold necklace that Davis gave Tang Tian.
And when he gave Tang Tian, he also said something heartfelt but very funny.
"Don't touch my head again, if that's not enough, next time you have another birthday, I can give you a bigger and thicker one."
You can see that he is really afraid of losing his hair like Ginobili.
Tang Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head, this guy is really simple, Gordon will believe whatever he says.
Ginobili was also touched by Duncan for more than ten years before he became bald, how long did he touch it?
Gifts from other teammates are also more common, such as customized headphones, customized suits, customized shoes, and so on.
Although it is much worse than the Ferrari he sent, it can be seen that his teammates have put a lot of effort into preparation.
Such a gift, obviously, is also very meaningful.
After giving the gifts, Ci Shiping said a word as the boss of the locker room.
"Guys, these gifts are not the most important thing, the most important thing is that we have to win tonight's game and that's the best gift."
Ci Shiping's words reached Tang Tian's heart, and also attracted a burst of cheers from the players.
No one wants to lose on their birthday night, and neither does Tang Tian.
That night, the Pelicans and Grizzlies game continued at FedEx Arena.
The arena was packed, and for Grizzlies fans, if they could win against the Pelicans, it would be the second year in a row that they would make it to the Western Conference finals.
Last year they lost to Spurs and this year they have a chance to get their revenge!
Gasol Jr. turned the ball back to the Grizzlies half court amid the cheers of the fans, officially kicking off Game 6.
The Grizzlies played at home in the game point game, and they were high-spirited, but when they attacked the frontcourt, they found that the Pelicans on the opposite side were even more competitive than them.
In the first round, they came back in vain.
The Pelicans fought harder on the court than in the last game.
Joggle was stunned on the sidelines.
Although he is the new head coach of the Grizzlies, he has also been in Memphis as the head coach of Hollins.
Since the formation of the black and white duo, he has really rarely seen such a tenacious opponent, and the Pelicans are definitely the first.
And Tang Tian felt very good tonight.
He took off the clamp on his fingers, put on the lucky bracelet, and was everywhere on the field with his Nike shoes on his feet.
The figure of Ganba is still handsome after the confrontation, the layup after the breakthrough is even more fierce and abnormal, and the demeanor is even more crazy.
The Grizzlies didn't get much bargain right from the start.
However, the Grizzlies are obviously not vegetarians, they were passive in the opening game, but relied on the dog-tooth bite, through the half, and forced the score back little by little.
In the second half, the Pelicans came back from halftime and were in high spirits again, and they forced the score back again.
This game is really exciting.
The game was played until the last minute.
Tang Tian first assisted Davis to make a layup and made two free throws in the final moment, and then he stealed Conley and scored a key layup to help the Pelicans win the game 81-75.
On his birthday night, he scored a series-high 35 points and helped the Pelicans pull the series into a tiebreaker!
After the game, the whole team of the Pelicans was cheering around Tang Tian.
This birthday night wasn't bad, but it was unforgettable.
