Although Li Liang suspected that Bird had never won the scoring title, he didn't want him to win it.

But he has no proof, and the other side is the head coach, and this Bird is not Mike Brown, so he is not so easy to talk to.

After playing the Raptors, Li Liang's average points per game have risen to 30 points, ranking first in the league.

This is the first time Li Liang has occupied the first place in the scoring charts, and he is the only player to average more than 30 points per game this season.

If he can keep up this scoring momentum, this season's scoring title will indeed be in his pocket.

However, since O'Neal in 2000, there has not been a scoring champion who has won the championship.

The scoring champion seems to have become a curse.

Would Li Liang care about this curse?

He cares about.

If you don't have strength, you say you don't have strength, don't keep talking about "historical laws", I, Gan Liliang, am the destroyer of historical laws.

After playing the Raptors, the Pacers tossed back to play the Trail Blazers at home.

After the Trailblazers were ravaged by Li Liang in the last game, they learned a lesson this time and laid many traps on Li Liang.

Li Liang's performance has indeed been somewhat restricted.

From the current point of view, Li Liang's scoring ability is indeed very strong, but he is still not without dead ends.

His biggest corner is his mid-range jumper.

Even with the skill of [Kassel's ugly smile], his mid-range pullup jump shot is not particularly confident.

Not to mention the difficult step-back jumpers and straight pull-outs.

The Trailblazers took a fancy to this, and desperately drove Li Liang to the middle distance, sealing the three-point line and the three-second zone.

Li Liang's offensive efficiency has declined.

But Smith stepped up in this game and shot a three-pointer from the outside.

Super high shooting percentage of 7 of 9 shots, and a single person scored 25 points!

It was one of the best games J.R. Smith played since he came to the Pacers.

After hitting three points in quick succession, he made his trademark "undefeated Eastern" celebration, kneeling with both hands on one knee.

It was a game in which Smith's self-confidence was built.

In the previous game, Smith had been inconsistent and had little confidence in his three-point attempt.

Especially when there is a three-point king like Li Liang in the team, Smith is a little nervous, afraid that he will not shoot well in three-pointers.

Now it's okay, Smith seems to have opened up the second vein of Rendu, and I believe that in his future games, he will be more and more confident in shooting three-pointers.

Of course, this is not necessarily a good thing.

There is already a Finson, and I don't know what kind of sparks they will have in the future games.

Relying on Smith's excellent play, the Pacers defeated the Trail Blazers by 8 points 100:92 at home and continued their winning streak.

The Pacers have scored more than 100 points in many games in a row, which is really different from the beginning of the season.

Surprisingly, the Pacers scored more than 100 points, not because the team began to emphasize offense, but because they began to emphasize defense.

It can only be said that on the basketball court, offense and defense are always one, and it is difficult to completely separate them.

Li Liang could feel that the walker was on the right path.

From the Lakers to the Clippers, and then from the Clippers to the Pacers, every time he changes teams, it is a challenge for Li Liang.

He not only has to improve his ability, but also find the right style of play for himself and the right team.

After playing the Trailblazers, Bird had to sigh that Li Liang's ability to adjust and adapt was really strong, and he was already about to catch up with himself.

After playing the Pacers, Li Liang is about to usher in an old club.

That's the Los Angeles Lakers, and Kobe, and Howard, and the new No. 1 pick, Andrew Wiggins.

……

On December 15, the Lakers arrived in India City.

That night, Li Liang was at a Japanese restaurant in Yincheng and invited Kobe to eat Kobe beef.

This is a nice Japanese restaurant in Indiana.

Li Liang originally wanted to find a Chinese restaurant, but the level of Chinese restaurants in Yincheng was not good.

The name Kobe Bryant was originally related to Kobe steak, so Li Liang invited Kobe to eat Japanese food.

The reunion of the old people is very red-eyed...... No, it should be intimate.

After hugging each other, they began to complain to each other, Li Liang said bluntly, "Kobe, you won't be able to win the championship without me." ”

Bryant said, "It's okay, I can't wear the ring on one hand." ”

Li Liang said, "I will wear my toes all over." ”

"Then you're going back to China to play your own league."

After a few words of mutual relief, the two still had a happy dinner together.

After eating, Kobe Bryant couldn't help but ask Li Liang, "Bruce, you said that you would return to the Lakers when the time comes, is it true?" When? ”

Li Liang didn't answer directly, but asked: "How is it, is that new champion show not as good as me?" ”

Of course, Li Liang is talking about Wiggins.

Before Wiggins entered the league, the momentum was not huge, and he was simply second to James.

And he still went to the Lakers, and the attention was extremely high.

As a result, Wiggins' performance with the Lakers can only be described as tepid.

can score more than 10 or 20 points per game, and the Lakers' record has also reached the playoff level.

But if you want to say how amazing it is, it is not as good as Li Liang at the beginning.

Maybe the fans and the media have too high expectations for Wiggins.

As the boss of the team, Kobe Bryant's own experience is the most profound.

When Li Liang was there, the Lakers were a rope and a championship-level team.

While Wiggins was there, the Lakers... Anyway, it's not too different from before.

You won't be in the playoffs like last season, but you're a champion... It doesn't feel as good as the Clippers.

Kobe Bryant's state is actually okay, and he still has the ability to score about 25 points per game.

Howard is still on the decline, but after recovering from injury this season, he has recovered well.

He's lost his weight, put more energy on the defensive end, and has less and less autonomous offense.

But overall, the Lakers' strength has slipped too much compared to two years ago.

The relationship between Bryant and Howard has not been very good.

As for Wiggins, Kobe Bryant hated iron a little bit, this kid is really talented, but ......

Therefore, Kobe Bryant pouted and shook his head when he heard Li Liang's question, "He rarely even practiced, I looked for him one-on-one, and he didn't want to win back." ”

I think when Li Liang was in the Lakers, he often looked for Kobe Bryant to go head-to-head.

If you can't beat it, you have to fight, and the more frustrated you are, the more courageous you are, until you can take advantage of it in heads-up.

When I got to Wiggins, I didn't have any competitiveness at all, and every day training for the game was like clocking in and out of work.

is still a rookie, and the evaluation from the outside world is so high.

The key Wiggins mentality is really good, in a place with so much pressure in Los Angeles, no matter how others criticize him, how to compare him with Li Liang, he is unmoved, and he seriously plays his own style, with this peaceful mentality, he was also a person who did great things in ancient times.

Li Liang comforted Lao Ke a few words and said, "Lao Ke, don't fight, retire, you won't be able to win the championship." If you want to win the championship, you might as well be with me, just like Mike. ”

Bryant had a disdainful smile on his face.

He often bothered to refute some of Li Liang's remarks.

Shame, price drop.

My cousin Kobe Bryant, going to follow you for a championship?

I don't even want to follow O'Neal, so why should I follow you?

Li Liang was also addicted, ridiculing Kobe Bryant, and hacking Brown by the way.

To be honest, Kobe Bryant wants to follow, so Li Liang's team can't afford it.

40 million to get a blacksmith?

Sorry, there isn't such a big blacksmith shop.

The two of them joked with each other and had a full meal.

After finishing it, Li Liang also asked Kobe to settle the bill.

"Aren't you in for a treat?" Bryant asked.

"Yes, I treat you to pay, I'm poor." Li Liang is not ashamed, I am poor and I am reasonable.

In terms of salary, Li Liang has indeed received enough money in the past two years.

Kobe Bryant shook his head, and finally took out his credit card to pay.

"You want to be merciful in that night's game? Lose a game? Kobe Bryant was still very generous and asked after giving the money.

"No, I'm a very just person, you can't insult me, I'll beat you to death."
