Explosive drums exploded, all they needed was a match.

Tang Tian's words are the match.

Cousins' face turned green as soon as he froze, and Tang Tian was about to go.

Fortunately, Tucker was watching Cousins ​​when he was making free throws in front of him. At this time, he flew over to hold him and kept talking to him to calm him down.

Now the Rockets rely on Cousins' internal advantage and the Pelicans stalemate. If Cousins ​​blows up the situation on the Rockets field, it will become very unfavorable.

Tucker was small but powerful, and he kept talking, saying that he had finally given Cousins ​​a temporary hold.

The Rockets' offense, Paul went to the frontcourt to continue to give the ball to Cousins.

Cousins ​​sent a fierce Jokic.

Although he was persuaded by Tucker, there was still a fire in his stomach, and now he went straight to Jokic, exhaling.

There was a muffled sound of confrontation between the two bodies.

Cousins ​​was about to reach the penalty area, and made a big attempt to hit Jokic directly.

Just then, Jokic suddenly relieved himself, and the whole person was knocked to the ground by Cousins.

Cousins ​​lost his strength and almost fell out, relying on his strong body control ability to barely stand.

"beep!"

However, the referee's whistle followed, signalling Cousins' offensive foul.

Jokic was still lying on the ground, and looked up at the referee's gesture and waved his fist in excitement.

The toughness on the basketball court is not just a hard confrontation, it is a fool who knows that the confrontation is not as good as it has been.

Many smart players rely on strength and brain to play together.

Jokic is that type of player.

After a few rounds, he already knew that he couldn't hardly win Cousins ​​now, but he could fight in other ways.

For example, just like the ball just now, make an offensive foul with the trend.

Jokic was excited, Cousins ​​was excited.

He sweared on the spot, and then went directly to the referee to signal that he did not wave his elbow, not an offensive foul.

But the referee signalled that it was outside a reasonable collision zone, and that was an offensive foul.

The Tucker behind was in La Cousins, but Cousins ​​got so angry that nine cows couldn't pull it, let alone a Tucker.

Cousins ​​was about to spit into the referee's face.

The referee did not bear it, and gave up Cousins ​​a technical foul.

There was cheering at the scene.

Now the situation between the two teams is deadlocked. This technical foul is likely to break the situation.

Cousins ​​also argued that Paul and Harden, who were rushed over, were forcibly pulled back.

The Pelicans made a free throw, after Tang Tian made a free throw, the Pelicans still have the ball.

From the sideline, Tang Tian continued to signal a change of defense. Cousins ​​did not come out the first time, but still came out the second time.

Tang Tian singled for Cousins, and after successive changes of direction, he saw Tucker had a defense and hit the earth directly to Davis.

The configuration of the Rockets is one big and four small, and Cousins ​​is extremely empty when he goes out.

After taking the ball, Davis took two steps and dunked directly with both hands to score.

Stevens made his character cheerful, and he yelled excitedly at the audience after dunking.

The atmosphere of the New Orleans Arena was lit again.

"Why are you here? Why don't you go with Davis ?!"

Cousins ​​turned around and yelled at Tucker at this time, asking him why he came over to defend.

Tucker was aggressive.

On the last ball, he didn't help defending. Cousins ​​was passed by Tang Tian like a stake. Now Cousins ​​is questioning him over to help defend?

"You can't guard him one-on-one."

He responded to Cousins ​​after responding.

"I just failed once, and I won't fail the second time."

Cousins' answer made Tucker completely speechless and a little depressed.

He persuaded Cousins ​​to help defend again, and ended up like this. It was really a kind donkey.

He didn't bother to argue with Cousins.

The Rockets attacked the frontcourt, Cousins ​​continued to play Jokic in the low post. He moved continuously and turned to fight after the shot.

However, the shot was obviously not good. It was a bridge and the rebound was received by Jokic.

Earlier he scored 8 points on Jokic's head, but this time he ended up losing three consecutive singles.

It can be clearly felt that the negative impact of emotions on him is huge.

This is Cousins, one side is Buddha and the other side is demon.

Tang Tian singled Cousins ​​again in the frontcourt. This time Tucker did not defend. Tang Tianhuang opened the ball and slammed into the basket again.

This goal scored, the Pelicans have led the Rockets 10 points by 52 to 42.

D'Antoni was forced to bid again.

Paul then walked to Cousins ​​and kept talking to him, trying to calm him down.

But Cousins ​​looks impatient with Tucker before.

The Rockets formed the Big Three in the summer and is the best choice Morey can make based on the market.

The combination of star guard and super inside, although not the best combination, does not conflict.

And the personal strengths of the three giants are top of the league in their respective positions.

Like the original Celtics and Heat, it is enough to impact the championship lineup.

But Morey didn't pay much attention to the private relationship between Paul and Cousins.

When Paul was on the Clippers and Cousins ​​was on the Kings, the two had a head-on clash.

Paul didn't get blown while defending Cousins, but Cousins ​​was blown for technical fouls because of an argument.

In addition to his strength as a short player, Paul has a lot of small means besides his strength, which is also a necessary means for his foothold.

This kind of thing changed to other players, and I forgot about it the next day.

But Cousins ​​was very revengeful. Not only did he find a chance to hit Paul with the ball later, when his former teammate Thomas tried to say hello to Paul, he was dragged back by him.

Just like Malone and Rodman, the private relationship between the two is actually very poor.

The NBA is a business league. Players are also just colleagues. In order to win the championship and get high salaries, turning the enemy into friends is often happening. It was also very upright. Paul came to persuade him at this time, only to make him more bored.

Seeing that Cousins' mood was getting more and more wrong, Harden came over and pulled Paul away, which prevented the situation from further worsening.

D'Antoni saw that Cousins ​​had been in a bad mood and had to temporarily replace him for a rest.

Cousins ​​went off the court, and the pressure on the Pelicans plummeted.

Capella's defense is good, but Jokic's play to pull out is very good for him.

And more importantly, Capella could not get the strategic significance of Cousins ​​on the offensive end.

The Pelicans seized this and continued to play an advantage.

In the Mamba symphony, where the Rockets frequently hit the outside, the Pelicans had pulled the point difference to 15 points at the end of the half.

They have already won the game.
