Today, the New Orleans Pelicans continue their NBA regular season journey against the Oklahoma City Thunder. In this game on the road, the Pelicans are not sure of winning because they have performed so badly this season.
Core forward Zion has been slow to make a comeback, and the Pelicans have lost main guard Ronzo Ball. In this way, the Pelicans actually played in the NBA regular season with a lineup without point guards, and it is foreseeable that their offense is disorganized. In order to solve the possession problem, the Pelicans can only put scoring guards like Graham and Hart in the backcourt, expecting Ingram to handle the ball.
Fortunately, the Thunder are not a strong team, they are not easy to move forward this season, and the record is also at the bottom of the Western Division, so it is the two teams "rookie pecking at each other". If he can't perform on the offensive end, then Graham, who used to be the main scorer of the Charlotte Hornets, has no value, and he can be regarded as finding his rightful place in this game.
In the second half, the Pelicans and thunder played a difficult game, and the two sides needed to score the final goal. In the decider, Ingram scored 10 consecutive points to help the Pelicans take the initiative, and alexander of the Thunder equalized with a desperate three-pointer. With 5 seconds left, the Pelicans opened the ball and gave it to Graham.
If they couldn't shoot from a distance, the Pelicans would be very disadvantageous to enter overtime, so Graham decisively shot a long three-pointer in the seconds stage to complete the deadlock, helping the Pelicans beat the Thunder 113-110.
After the game, Pelicans coach Willie Green said the ball was lucky, probably because heaven heard his prayers. It has to be said that Graham's three-point shot is very exciting, booking the NBA's strongest game of the year.
