For the Pelicans, playing at home would be their only advantage in the Game 7 showdown.

But there was also one piece of news that could be considered good.

Because of the immense public pressure, the league did not add to Davis' suspension.

That is to say, Davis would be able to play in the final Game 7.

Even so, after leading 3-1 and then being tied by the Cavaliers in such a manner, the Pelicans' morale inevitably plummeted.

Such games could happen two or three times. With the league's overwhelming support for the Cavaliers, the difficulty of winning Game 7 was self-evident.

This was evident when the team returned to New Orleans for training; the team's morale was at its lowest point since entering the Finals.

However, one person was just the opposite.

"Trevor, didn't you eat breakfast this morning? Your defense is as soft as a woman's!"

"Jrue, your defensive positioning is so bad, are you trying to let me drop 50 points on your head?!"

"Nikola, are you afraid of getting called for fouls? You don't even have the desire to stop me from scoring?!"

…

Tang Tian was constantly trash-talking his teammates. It was clear from this behavior that Tang Tian was very angry right now.

This was something even veteran players like Holiday had never seen before.

Tang Tian was truly enraged.

This angry emotion quickly infected his teammates, and without referees on the training court, the Pelicans' defensive intensity returned significantly.

Even the team's morale improved a lot.

After experiencing such unfair calls, anger was the only thing that could change morale.

After the training session, Stevens didn't even dare to talk to Tang Tian.

However, Davis took the initiative to find Tang Tian.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault in the last game. I won't make the same mistake again, no matter how they provoke me."

Davis was apologizing to Tang Tian. James' actions in the last game were very provocative, but he had indeed been impulsive.

"No, you didn't do anything wrong. If he tries to step over you again, you cripple him."

Tang Tian's response surprised Davis, but he also knew that Tang Tian was truly angry.

"Just leave the game to me. They won't win because I'm going to win."

Tang Tian's next words confirmed this even more.

He suddenly felt that if the game started now, Tang Tian would single-handedly destroy the Cavaliers.

"You just go and attack. I'll protect the paint and get you offensive rebounds."

Davis then said.

He had already prepared to play a supporting role.

Tang Tian glanced at Davis and nodded.

On June 19th, US time, the Finals Game 7 kicked off at the New Orleans Arena.

Although fans' doubts about the league had reached a peak, the viewership for this Game 7 had already set a new season high before the game even started.

One game to decide the winner; this was a true life-or-death battle.

The eyes of fans across the United States, and even the world, were focused on this game.

Would the Pelicans hold onto their final home game and win their first championship trophy in team history, or would the Cavaliers complete an epic 1-3 comeback?

Either outcome would be enough to excite and thrill their respective fans.

Many Hollywood stars and political giants came to the scene, and the attention this game received was comparable to the Super Bowl.

Although the league's biased calls in the previous two games were heavily criticized, it was undeniable that they had raised the stakes and attention for this Game 7 to the highest level.

About half an hour before the game started, the players from both teams entered the arena one after another.

It was at this moment that some fans noticed that Tang Tian's expression tonight was different from past games, even the past two years.

Anger, anger that was visible to the naked eye, made people afraid to look directly at him.

The opening ceremony soon began, and it was at this moment that this emotion was felt by all the spectators.

Tang Tian, who used to like to show off a short breakdancing routine at the opening, didn't do anything today. His eyes were just filled with anger and killing intent.

They could foresee that the Cavaliers would have a rough night tonight.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups for both sides were announced one after another.

Neither side made any adjustments to their lineup. Bojan continued to start as the Pelicans' small forward.

After warming up, Davis tipped the ball back to the Pelicans' half over Mozgov, officially kicking off the Game 7 showdown.

Holiday passed the ball to Tang Tian after crossing half court, then signaled everyone else to spread out.

A pick-and-roll between the one and four positions. Tang Tian broke through Love the instant he got free.

His speed was as fast as lightning. You could feel that anger had put him in a state of extreme physical excitement.

Love was completely shaken off, and Tang Tian charged into the paint.

*Boom!*

A one-handed, violent dunk!

Cheers erupted from the crowd. Delivering a violent dunk to start the game felt great!

Back on the defensive end, the Pelicans' defense contracted.

Knowing that the referee's whistle would favor the Cavaliers, Stevens tightened the formation, forcing the Cavaliers to take more shots.

The Cavaliers did the same; everyone except Mozgov among their starters could shoot.

James tried a shot from beyond the arc first.

But just as he shot, Davis pounced out from the free throw line. Although he was a little late in terms of distance, his momentum was really strong.

*Clang!*

Perhaps disturbed by this, James' three-point attempt bounced off the rim, and Jokic grabbed the rebound!

The Pelicans launched a counterattack. Davis dribbled the ball to the front court and was chased by James. He turned around and passed the ball to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian leaped up, and seeing James turning around and lunging at him, he dodged in the air and sent the ball into the basket with a low-hand layup!

Mental excitement brought physical coordination.

Tang Tian was in surprisingly good shape right now!

Whistles blew non-stop in the arena.

The referees were very biased in the previous two games, but from the start until now, the Pelicans had barely had any contact.

And Tang Tian, even more, was scoring with simple and brutal methods, not giving the referee any chance to call a foul.

Irving dribbled the ball and forced his way to the basket. His shot was blocked by Davis, and the referee called a defensive foul on Davis.

It was an phantom whistle, and boos filled the arena.

However, Davis' emotions didn't change much. He just went to the basket early to get position.

Just like he had said to Tang Tian before, he was mentally prepared to play a supporting role, and he could do it well!

The Pelicans played a positional offense again in the front court.

Tang Tian continued to mismatch against Love. This time, he made a fake breakthrough, followed by a sudden pull-up three-pointer.

Smith rushed over to help defend from the weak side and hit Tang Tian's hand as he shot.

The referee didn't blow the whistle.

*Swish!*

But Tang Tian still made the shot while losing his balance!

He had scored 7 consecutive points to start the game, and each one was more difficult than the last!

An enraged Tang Tian was a little scary!
