Butler has been defending with all his strength since the start of the game. When he started, the Pelicans really opened.

Fortunately, Oladipo recovered some form at the critical moment, and scored 7 points in the offensive end and scored in 7 points, helping the Thunder to hold the situation.

The quarter ended in 9 minutes, and the score on the court was 33-16, and the Pelicans led by a big score.

Both sides have entered rotation one after another.

Westbrook came off the court to rest, Griffin reappeared, Sabonis and Felton were also replaced.

The Pelicans also rotated on a large scale. Except for Butler, all the other main players in the lineup came off the court to rest.

Brogden, Boyan, Siakam and Harrell made their debut one after another.

The Pelicans' offensive opportunity, Brogden and Siakam returned the ball after pick-and-roll, and Siakam, who was given to Siakam, who was the three-pointer, and the latter's three-pointer shot hit the box.

Sabonis protected the defensive rebound.

The Thunder attacked the frontcourt, and Griffin hit Siakam with his back. After turning around, he caused the latter's foul and made both free throws.

The Thunder narrowed the gap to 15 points.

Donovan breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines, his originally frowning brow stretched out.

Griffin's poor performance at the start is not a completely bad thing. At least he can lead the team to catch up with points in the substitute connection.

On the other hand, Stevens was too confident and gave too many main players at one time.

A player like Siakam who performs well in the preseason may not be good in the regular season, especially against Griffin.

This is the Pelicans' chance to chase points.

"Swish!"

His idea just flashed, Siakam's aerial cut attracted the defense, Brogden made a second pass, assisting Boyang to make a three-pointer.

The score difference was widened to 18 points!

"Damn it!"

Donovan scolded himself, and he sucked the Thunder for a slight sip.

Griffin continued to play against Siakam in the frontcourt, and then turned continuously before shaking Siakam away from the board and scored.

Siakam has made great progress on both offense and defense this season, but he still lacks experience against Griffin.

Butler went to communicate with Siakam.

Tang Tian sat on the bench, feeling indescribable.

In the past four seasons of the Pelicans, he has basically played every game, and he has to take into account the growth of the team's newcomer. He is not tired because he is strong in spirit.

But this season is really different. He is like he has become a rich farmer from the middle peasant stage!

At the beginning, Walker charged forward, and then Davis held the central army. He just needed to sit in the formation and command like a general who was planning.

Even now, Butler has done it for the newcomers.

For the first time since joining the Pelicans, he feels relaxed physically and mentally.

Butler's guidance is still very useful.

Boyn failed to make a three-pointer from the outside, and Siakam retreated quickly, defending Felton's first fast attack.

After falling into the position, he also used his arm-span advantage to interfere with his arm-span when defending Griffin alone, and successfully made a goal!

One of the big reasons why a rough man can improve is his learning ability. Siakam's learning ability is the same as Leonard, and he is very strong!

After the last three minutes of this quarter, the score on the field was frozen at 40 to 20.

What Donovan expected didn't happen. Not only did the Thunder fail to close the score, but the Pelicans widened the gap to 20 points!

The situation is quite unfavorable to the Thunder.

"We didn't do a good job in the first quarter, and I'm sure they will perform better in the second quarter."

During the break between the festival, Donovan analyzed the team's performance in the first quarter in front of reporters and also showed confidence.

It's just one quarter of the game, and the Thunder team has strong willpower and will not give up easily!

When the second quarter came back, the Thunder did not make any substitution adjustments, but the Pelicans had one.

Walker and Davis came on the court to replace Butler and Harrell.

Donovan was stunned when he saw this, and then couldn't help but sigh.

People are so popular that people are so popular that Stevens really plays a rich battle this season.

The Thunder attacked in the frontcourt, and Griffin used his ability to control the striker and broke through to pass Sabonis Jr. in seconds, who shot the ball at the basket.

"Bang!"

He had already taken action at the first time, but his speed was slow. Davis chased him and gave him a big hat!

Sabonis is not the traditional No. 5, nor is Davis.

Stevens' replacement made Davis play five, which was really spiritual and he really didn't plan to give the Thunder a chance.

Walker played pick-and-roll with Davis in the frontcourt, broke through the basket, and scored 2+1 against Sabonis' defensive drop-off!

From training camp, to preseason, to regular season, Walker and Davis' pick-and-roll lethality are getting stronger and stronger.

This has become the second tactic of the Pelicans to score stable points besides Tang Tian’s singles!

Walker made a steadily free throw, and the score difference was widened to 23 points.

The second quarter was just starting, and the Thunder were at risk of a half-time collapse.

Donovan saw this and had no time to think, so he replaced Westbrook again.

After Westbrook came on the court, he broke through the basket and showed his personal ability to face the defense of Davis and Siakam, and scored the ball after the confrontation.

One in the first quarter and one in the second quarter, two key goals are very critical to the Thunder.

The Thunder's bench also screamed excitedly.

However, the Pelicans did not change because of this goal, just like in the first quarter.

Walker made a sudden pass from Davis, and the latter also made a two-pointer from the free throw line.

Tang Tian smiled even stronger when he saw it off the court.

Davis' offensive methods have not changed much compared to last season.

Even Davis would play the board at a low post last season.

But the biggest difference between Davis this season is that he has a higher grasp and can be shot in all the goals he should score.

This is the biggest progress, and it can even be said that this is the most critical step from an ordinary All-Star to a superstar.

I asked Duncan to give Davis a small meal this offseason, and it was really a big profit!

Westbrook's breakthrough zombies stopped and made a quick stop. He was in a better state when he came back in the second quarter.

But Davis, who was playing back from the low post, turned around and scored another goal.

The two sides are in a stalemate!

The score kept fluctuating around 23 points. After the quarter was about four minutes, the score on the field was 46 to 26, and the difference between the two sides was still 20 points.

At this time, the Pelicans changed players again. Walker and Davis came off the court to rest, and Tang Tian and Butler were back on the court!

There is no one to replace the Pelicans!

Donovan: Tired.

I have only heard of others using wheel battles to defend super giants before. The Pelicans are using superstars to fight, and the Thunder team has no power to fight back!

Tang Tian did not perform much in the first quarter, and he had a strong desire to attack in this quarter. He scored 20 points in a single quarter.

The Pelicans also expanded the score gap further under his leadership.

After halftime, the score on the field was frozen at 70-38, and the score difference of 32 points in the halftime...
Chapter completed!
