Li Liang rested for four days, and he did not go to the sidelines to watch the game.

This is the first time Li Liang has missed an official game since entering the NBA.

The reason why he doesn't go to the sidelines is simple, because he's going to sleep at home!

Taking advantage of the few days of the ban, Li Liang continued to steadily improve his ability to change direction on the ball.

He followed Fraser and his friends, wearing championship rings and training hard.

This time, the ball control training session was longer than Li Liang imagined.

After practicing, Li Liang came out of the system and felt a faint pain in his fingers.

Zhu Shu doesn't know why Li Liang sleeps so much, but a boyfriend who loves to sleep is better than a boyfriend who likes to go out to eat, drink and have fun, right?

Anyway, Zhu Shu has nothing to do recently, the season is underway, and the players can play steadily, so she nests in the room to play games, and when it comes to dinner, she calls Li Liang to get up and eat.

In addition to practicing ball control, Li Liang further improved his core Li Liang.

Because Li Liang wants to make his killing ability stronger in the three-second zone, so as to prepare for the ability to practice layups in the future.

By the time Li Liang appeared at the Stamp Center on February 5, the attentive fans on the sidelines and his teammates on the Clippers should be able to notice that Li Liang's figure has changed slightly.

He's stronger and stronger.

Of course, this change is very small, and only those who are very familiar with Li Liang can detect it.

Among them is Mike Brown.

When Li Liang warmed up with his teammates on the court, Mike Brown looked left and right at Li Liang and asked, "Bruce, are you exercising at home?" ”

Li Liang said: "Yes, I haven't been idle all day today, I exercise seriously every day, I am very diligent." ”

Mike Brown scratched his chin and thought to himself, this kid, why is the change in body shape so obvious every time he says he wants to exercise?

Although some people are naturally prone to lose fat and gain muscle, this kid is too fast, right?

This guy can't be a drug addict, right?

Brown was quite concerned about Li Liangna, for fear that he would go astray.

After knocking on the side, he felt that it was impossible for Li Liang to use medicine, so he no longer worried.

The attention of tonight's game is very high, not only because I think that the Heat and Clippers are the two strongest teams in the East and West at the moment, but also because this is a strong conversation between James and Li Liang.

At the beginning of the season, when the two sides played for the first time, Li Liang had just arrived at the Clippers, and the run-in with his teammates was relatively average.

That game was a crisp defeat for the Clippers, suppressed from start to finish, and there was not much room for resistance.

Now that half a season has passed, the tacit understanding between the Clippers players is getting better and better, and the only regret is that in this game, the Clippers are not complete.

But precisely because the Clippers are not complete and lack a Paul, Li Liang's play will be even more important.

And LeBron James, he has been amazing in every aspect this season, and it is really not easy in this regard.

In the summer, James insisted on losing weight and reducing his time on the inside, despite Riley's objections.

He spends a lot of time practicing his shooting and further refining his low post skills.

In the regular season, James showed a lighter body and better form.

After losing weight, he played more flexibly, hitting a career-high three-point percentage and shooting percentage from the outside line.

Although the Heat did not receive effective reinforcements in the summer, they also lost Mike Miller, an important three-point shot.

However, James' change in playing style has made the Heat more economical and efficient on the offensive end.

The reason why Riley opposes James weight loss is that he hopes that James can be more involved in interior defense.

Especially when playing the Pacers, they were almost blown into scum by the Pacers in the playoffs last season.

But James believes that no matter how much weight he gains, the interior will not be able to guard against Hibbert and David West.

Instead of that, it is better to further improve and strengthen yourself offensively.

Wasn't the Finals miserable enough by the Lakers' one-step strategy?

In the East, although the Pacers are a threat to the Heat, James' change of style of play does not mean that he will not be able to beat the Pacers.

But if James doesn't change his style of play, it will really be difficult to say if he meets Li Liang's team again.

That 60-point game still left a big shadow in LeBron's heart.

For a week after Game 6 of the Finals, James dreamed of the Finals almost every night.

In my dreams, I was blown up by Li Liang's three-point shot, or I couldn't shoot any three-pointers.

James knew that if he didn't make a change, the shadow would hang over him.

James is one such player, he's a player who knows how to be flexible and move with the times.

The three-point era is coming, and of course he has to make a change ahead of time, rather than continuing to stick to the inside and back.

What's more, his current back ability is enough to deal with the current forward line of the league.

James' change was a success, and he tasted the power of the three-point shot, which was less effortless and more efficient.

After the tedious opening ceremony, the game is about to begin.

The starting five of both sides took to the court.

The Heat's starting five are Wade, James, Battier, Bosh and Chalmers.

Bosh was in the center position, and Battier was in charge of the power forward position.

The Heat is playing a complete big and four small, even in the face of the Clippers with Jordan Jr. and Griffin inside pseudo-twin towers, they still use this lineup.

There's no way, the family has been calling like this for this condition.

Spo also discovered that instead of a big forward like Haslem who is not as tall as Battier, it is better to let Battier, who has three-point ability, play to open up space.

In the opening jump ball, Jordan Jr. took the lead in winning the ball.

Anyway, Bosh has basically never won the scramble, after all, there is moisture in height, and he mainly relies on his neck to support his height.

In the first goal of the opening game, Griffin stuck in the front three-second zone, stuck Bosh behind him.

Li Liang responded with a high position and passed the ball to Griffin in time.

Griffin spun around and pushed Bosh away and made a layup with his left hand.

This move turned and turned to a left-handed layup, which Griffin has used handy this season.

His positioning skills are getting better and better, and Li Liang is particularly timely and accurate every time he gives the ball in a high position.

After all, he learned this handicraft from Dan Isser.

On the Heat's side, Chalmers dribbled across the half court and handed the ball to James, who gave it to Wade.

After Wade got the ball on the right side, he made a cross-step feint past Barnes, dodged Collison's defense after hitting the basket, and scored two points with a backhand layup.

As a starting point guard, Barnes has done a good job of complementing defense, rebounding, and defending the interior line, but he is not effective when defending against fast-bursting guards.

For example, Wade, who accelerated after a blur, and cleaned up Barnes.

Li Liangren faced James on the left side, and Jordan Jr. was pulled out by Bosh again, and in the end, it was Collison who went to make up for the defense.

Collison's defensive effect is stronger than Paul's, just like nothing.

Wade didn't dunk from another person, that's because he is old and unlucky!

After the Heat scored, the Clippers left a quick counterattack and Barnes served quickly.

Collison received the ball and dribbled two steps to the front court, and Griffin tried to accelerate to the basket without success.

After slowing down, a return pass was made to Li Liang, who was inserted in the middle of the back.

Li Liang received the ball and killed the basket directly, and he was about to go to the basket!

He made a sudden stop, and then he was about to make a jump shot from close range.

Li Liang used this trick very easily, basically every defender who came up to the defense and wanted to give him a hat would be shaken.

Then I watched Li Liang shake his hand lightly and score.

But this time, Li Liang miscalculated.

James, who was following Li Liang closely, actually calculated that Li Liang would make a sudden stop jump shot, and then stopped the car, and then a big hat on the front blocked Li Liang's jump shot!

Battier got the ball and handed it to James, who dribbled quickly across the half court and launched a counterattack.

Outside the three-point line, James suddenly made a non-looking touch-and-go pass, with a slight flick of his wrist, and a diagonal pass to Chalmers, who was killed under the basket.

Chalmers received the ball and scored two points on a layup.

It can be seen that James tonight is prepared.
