Chapter 847: Stars

The news of Li Liang's food poisoning had spread before the start of the game.

After all, it is the era of self-media, and any news can be spread to every corner of the world with a single finger.

So, now it's okay, the whole world knows that Li Liang has diarrhea.

This gives Lakers fans a little hope.

Although even if Li Liang is not up, it is still very scary to have a double less thunder, but it is really completely different for a double young man to bring a Li Liang.

At the very least, if only the two are on the court, the Lakers' defensive pressure will be reduced by more than half.

Leonard focused on dealing with Durant, and Kobe Bryant went to defend Westbrook, so he didn't have to make complicated things anymore.

It's not a good thing to have an overly complex strategy on the defensive end, it tends to consume too much energy, and the benefits are not necessarily high.

Therefore, many famous coaches in the NBA are not keen on building a sophisticated and complex defensive system, so they concentrate on one-on-one defense, allowing players to devote more energy to offense.

Before the game began, Scott was praying in his heart, hoping that Li Liang would not play this game.

Even if he does, his body collapses due to food poisoning, and his performance is estimated to be not good.

After all, there is only one Michael Jordan.

When the teams on both sides entered and prepared for the opening ceremony, the fans at the scene were pleasantly surprised to find that there was indeed no Li Liang in the Thunder team.

The on-site commentator reported, "Bruce Lee is on the team's squad, but we look at it on the spot, there is no Lee among the warm-up players, and we don't know what kind of decision the Thunder made." I think it's possible to give Bruce Lee a break, and even if Lee rests, the Thunder are still on par with the Lakers in terms of strength. ”

Most people's opinions are the same as those of TV station commentators, and Li Liang has no reason to be on it.

But how could Li Liang's thoughts be the same as normal people.

Until the two sides began to introduce the players, Li Liang still did not appear on the field.

As soon as the national anthem is sung and the entrance ceremony is over, the starters of both sides will start the game.

However, Li Liang was originally a substitute, so it didn't matter.

In the stands of the Staples Center, the fans may be more anxious than the players on the spot, whether Li Liang will appear in the end.

Zhu Shu, Bai Xiaoting and Wei Dazhi were sitting on the sidelines, and they were also very anxious.

Of course, all three people are anxious in different ways.

Zhu Shu was worried about Li Liang's body, and she felt very guilty because of her bad stomach.

Among the four people, Li Liang's condition was the most serious, the three of them were just a little uncomfortable, and they would be fine with some medicine the next day.

There's no way, who let Li Liang eat more, and I don't know which dish went wrong.

Bai Xiaoting sat very far forward, sitting with some fashion celebrities - including EJ Johnson, who has been in the limelight recently.

As the son of the famous Magic Johnson, he has no interest in basketball, but he successfully broke into the fashion industry and became a wonder.

All she is thinking about now is that she hopes that Li Liang will not play, so that the Lakers can still have a chance to win.

Although she refused to admit it, Bai Xiaoting still admired Li Liang's achievements after entering the NBA.

is indeed too powerful, too legendary, even if she is a Komi, she can't look directly at Li Liang's light.

As for Wei Dazhi, he is not worried about Li Liang's body, Li Liang is as strong as a cow, and his health is very good, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

He doesn't worry about the Lakers, and he's not a Lakers fan.

The only thing he was anxious about was that he couldn't get into the locker room for the time being and bring first-hand news to the fans.

This Bruce Lee Lass topic is not easy to come across, and the whole career may be just like this.

So people's minds don't seem to be on the playing field, and they are all pulled away by Li Liang.

At this point, the game between the two sides has begun.

Adams and Hibbert jumped the ball in the center circle, and the ball went to the Lakers.

Although Li Liang does not play, on the surface, it has no impact on the starters.

But the impact of mindset is different.

After the opening, the Lakers played quite actively, and there was a feeling of "your big brother is not here, see how I clean you up".

And the Thunder was not affected in the slightest.

Durant and Westbrook are both people who have experienced strong winds and waves, and they are just missing Li Liang in a game, and they feel that the playing environment is more superior.

After all, if Li Liang is here, the ability of the hair dryer to beep can really make people crazy.

Even if he's not on the field, he can still be noisy off the field.

Bryant hit a mid-range jumper in the opening game.

Immediately after, the Thunder Westbrook missed a jumper, and Leonard countered with a stop-and-go change of direction, went to the basket, and scored a layup with the ball in one hand.

The Lakers played aggressively.

But right away, Durant hit a three-point shot from the outside.

In the playoffs, if the Thunder's offense does not have Li Liang, to put it bluntly, it is very simple for Westbrook to break through to find an empty position, or find Durant.

In terms of offensive efficiency, Durant may be a little higher than the rest of the Thunder's open positions.

Of course, if you add a Li Liang, the situation is completely different.

Through "The Three-Body Problem", we know that two stars together are predictable, while three together are completely unpredictable, and the possibility is greatly increased.

The changes brought about by a big star like Li Liang are, of course, enormous.

The two sides fought quite fiercely in the first five minutes, and the Lakers maintained the lead on the court.

Leonard opened with a large number of breakaways, causing two fouls from the Thunder.

Tonight was in Los Angeles, and the referee's whistle was clearly more favorable to the Lakers.

The score of the two sides was 14:10, and the Lakers led the Thunder by four points.

The Lakers took advantage of the Thunder's weaknesses in interior defense and scored a lot of points on the inside.

After sending Ibaka away, Li Liang became a substitute again, and the Thunder's inside basket protection has always been a problem.

The Lakers didn't seem to expect to take advantage of this weakness in the first two games, and they finally remembered when they came to their home court tonight.

On the Thunder's side, Durant and Westbrook scored 10 points.

Robertson squandered two open three-point shots from the outside.

In Li Liang's absence, Robertson became hesitant.

Still scolded.

Because they weren't sure if Li Liang would play, Durant and Westbrook didn't dare to attack with all their might as soon as they started.

It's better to save some stamina, just in case.

Donovan called a pause and prepared to implement his plan B, which was a set of rotation policies designed in Li Liang's absence.

This plan should be said to be very effective and targeted, it was originally used to deal with the Warriors, so let's take it out to deal with the Lakers in advance tonight.

As a result, before the timeout was over, there was a sudden strange sound on the court.

It was sent from the players' tunnel.

The players and coaches of the Lakers and Thunder all looked in the direction of the players' tunnel.

Sure enough, Li Liang came back.

He trotted all the way to the court with solid steps, wearing a thunderous white sweatshirt.

Running to the Thunder's bench, he looked up at the scoreboard, trailing by 4 points with a contemptuous smile on his face.

His mental head looked great, not at all like the dead dog he had been in the locker room with a needle in his arm.

"You're going to lose this game?" Li Liang used words to stimulate his teammates.

And his appearance stimulated the Lakers fans and Lakers players on the scene even more.

It felt as if there was a wail.

As Li Liang spoke, he pulled down the zipper of his jacket, took off his sports jacket, and warmed up a little.

"I'm going to play, tonight, I must defeat them!"

Donovan shook his head helplessly, gave up the original substitution plan, and it was Li Liang's turn to appear.

And Li Liang's carefully planned "King Debut" plan was perfectly completed.
