Chapter 512 Chink Can't Become a Superstar (Third Update!)

The Pelicans management immediately put pressure on the league, but did not get a clear reply.

In the saliva of the fans, the sixth game of the series between the Pelicans and the Clippers kicked off at the New Orleans Arena.

Match point plus home court advantage, this is the best chance for the Pelicans to advance.

Conversely, if they lose this home game, the chances of qualifying for the tie-break in Los Angeles will become very slim.

At this time, the league announced the results of the selection of the best sixth man of the season.

With an average of 18.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game, Jamal Crawford got 57 first votes and a total of 421 points.

He overwhelmed Eric Gordon, Taj Gibson, Manu Ginobili and Reggie Jackson and others, and was successfully elected as the best sixth man of the season.

He also became the first player in NBA history to have been elected the best sixth man on both teams.

And at the age of 34, he is also the oldest player to be elected as the best sixth man.

Two days later, the sixth leg of the series between the Pelicans and the Clippers began in New Orleans.

The New Orleans arena was packed, and they all expected the Pelicans to advance at home.

Fans look forward to it, and the Pelicans players hold their breath.

The penalty in the last game made them unhappy, and all this unhappiness was vented into the game.

After five minutes in the first quarter, they led the Clippers by double digits 14-4.

The fans cheered constantly, and their chances of winning tonight are really great.

Rivers called a timeout.

"When are you waiting? Wake up, this is your last chance, win or go home, look around, are you willing to spend a season in vain here? Are you willing to stop here?"

Rivers took a sip of trans chicken soup.

This chicken soup seems to be working well, and the faces of the Clippers are full of excitement.

Rivers then also replaced Redick with Crawford.

Back from the timeout, Crawford succeeded in a one-on-one match against Morrow, helping the Clippers close to the point difference.

Back on the offensive end, Davis took an inexplicable offensive foul on the pick-and-roll.

There were constant boos at the scene.

It seems that the previous pressure of the Pelicans did not have enough effect.

Looking back, Crawford hit another three-pointer against Morrow.

Just like a basketball experience game, getting the best sixth man gives him a bonus to his ability value.

But this is Crawford's playing style, and he is a superstar when he feels it.

Tang Tian scored a goal for the Pelicans, and Crawford made another breakthrough throw against the newly replaced Aminu.

The point difference was narrowed to 5 points.

At this moment, the referee stole the show again, and Davis was blown a mobile screen when he screened.

There were boos at the scene.

At this time, Benson in the VIP box had a serious expression on his face.

Putting pressure on Silver didn't work, he could only find Stern.

Crawford turned around and broke through for a layup, which caused Holiday's thug again.

After making two free throws in the booing, he has already scored 9 points in this period of consecutive shots and extra penalties.

Morrow, Aminu, and Holiday couldn't guard against him.

Williams had no choice but to use Tang Tian.

Tang Tian went up to defend, and Crawford's offensive firepower was finally suppressed, but the firepower of the Pelicans began to be a bit unsustainable.

And more importantly, the referee frequently sent out the away whistle in the game, and it was even more exaggerated than in the third game.

Crawford's performance also boosted the overall state of the Clippers, and after a while Davis and Holiday got fouled one after another.

The Pelicans are playing 5-8 at home!

Tang Tian stepped forward in a desperate situation, locked Crawford on the defensive end, and frequently hit the inside line on the offensive end.

Throughout the first half, he only rested for less than 2 minutes.

Relying on his 18 points in the half, the Pelicans barely stalemate with the Clippers 40-50 in the half.

In the second half, Davis got his third foul and left the field early. Redick also found his touch and hit consecutive three-pointers at this time. After Crawford came up, he continued to be in a hot state.

Tang Tian once again grasped offense and defense with one hand, barely helping the team enter the fourth quarter.

In the fourth quarter, he continued to play on the court without resting for a minute. His physical fitness began to have problems, and his touch began to decline rapidly.

Davis also got his fourth personal foul early, and could only sit on the hot bench on the bench.

The Clippers played a wave in this quarter and finally defeated the Pelicans 94-79.

When they were behind 1 to 3, they pulled two cities in a row to rewrite the big score to 3 to 3.

Tang Tian scored 26 points, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks to no avail.

Davis even enjoyed Tang Tian's treatment in the previous game. His playing time was blown to pieces. In the end, he only played 20 minutes and scored 9 points and 7 rebounds.

At the moment when the game ended, the scene was not only full of boos, but 20,000 fans shouted "black whistle" in unison.

The fans at the scene were filled with righteous indignation, and the fans on the hotline also complained wildly.

"This referee is too crazy, these are definitely the most incredible two games I have ever seen!"

"This is not the league I know. In order to send the Los Angeles team to the second round, it has gone crazy and made no secrets!"

"Next, please enjoy the Indian blockbuster, "Warrah: The Beginning"!"

"Hey, 5 vs 8, even if you were given Jordan, you wouldn't be able to win!"

"No, man, Jordan won't choose to play in New Orleans!"

"It seems that Tang was really wrong to choose New Orleans. The road he has to go seems to be more difficult than that of Jordan."

"But that's why I love the godfather. Some people choose brother basketball, some people choose to turn enemies into friends, but the godfather chooses one man, one city."

...

These complaints are not limited to fans. In the Clippers' post-match press conference, local reporters in New Orleans also mentioned this issue.

"Don was whistled for 5 fouls in the last game, and Davis was called for 6 fouls in this game, but the Clippers' most fouls in these two games were Barnes' 4 fouls. What do you think of the referees? The scale of the penalty?"

"That's out of our control. The penalty is part of the game. If you say the penalty is the other way around, we will choose to accept it."

Rivers replied with a smile, it was obvious that he got cheap and behaved.

"Tang's performance was restrained in these two games. How did you do it?"

A reporter from FOX asked another question.

"We forced him to put his physical energy into the defense. Jamal and JJ's performance tonight is very important."

Rivers said with a smile.

"Jamal, what do you think of Don?"

The reporter then turned his gaze to Crawford.

"He's the perfect player, the best defense and offense in the league, he's a superstar."

Crawford is relatively humble. Although he won the game, he still has a high evaluation of Tang Tian.

The reporter then turned his attention to Redick, who also played well tonight and scored 17 points.

"Jamal, chinks are not as strong as you say, they can't become superstars."

Redick didn't answer right away, but said to Crawford with a smile.
