Chapter 479: The Rhythm of Soaring Points
The Clippers started to work midway through the second quarter.
Li Liang took the lead in assisting Barnes to hit a three-pointer.
It was Barnes' first three-pointer so far in the game.
In the last game against the Mavericks, Barnes was like a chicken, shooting 5-of-10 from three-point range and shooting 50 percent from the field, playing the best performance of the season.
And in this game, Barnes was back to his original form, and he couldn't make any shots.
It was easy to make a shot, and when he turned around, Anthony made a defensive foul and went to the free throw line.
After Griffin went off the court, Li Liang played the No. 4 position on the court and played opposite Banyani.
The burden of defending Anthony was on Barnes' shoulders.
This is also the meaning of Barnes and Li Liang's starting together.
His height and defensive ability make Li Liang more flexible in position selection.
Of course, Anthony is really hard to guard.
With both free throws from the free-throw line, the Knicks still maintained a slight lead.
But this slight advantage is just a matter of three-point shooting for Li Liang.
Now as a ball handler, Li Liang is more and more likely to use cover and small cooperation to create opportunities for himself to shoot three-pointers.
The high Jordan and Barnes both covered Li Liang, and Li Liang easily got rid of Banyani with the ball and accelerated.
Then at the top of the arc, when Banyani gradually rushed up to make up for the defense, Li Liang threw him away with another backdribble.
Banyani rushed over, and there was an empty space in front of Li Liang, and he shot directly in three points!
The ball makes a beautiful arc and hollows into the net!
The whole Madison Garden Square was amazed by this shot.
Judging by this move, isn't that Stephen Curry's signature quick three-pointer?
Although Li Liang was a lot slower in terms of action speed, the shooting speed felt not so fast, and there was a small pause.
But the effect is the same.
And the Chinese forward, who was criticized last season for not holding the ball and only throwing a few three-pointers, will now play such a job?
The damage Curry inflicted on New Yorkers at Madison Garden last year is still fresh in our minds.
54 points, 11 of 13 three-pointers, butterfly-like dribbling and beautiful quick shots, the New Yorkers were stunned.
It's a pity that the Warriors lost to the Knicks, who were one of the strongest teams in the East last year.
Li Liang's shot seemed to be a warning to New Yorkers, Lao Tzu is not Curry, and the Clippers are not the Warriors.
The Clippers have already put the score on the score.
Next, the Knicks still rely on Anthony.
After Anthony missed two strong shots, he turned on the "Harden mode", and after trying to step and then rushed to the basket and raised his hand to make a foul.
Barnes was fouled once, and Li Liang was fouled once.
But when Griffin returned, the Clippers continued their efficient offensive performance.
Li Liang is completely familiar with the Clippers' offensive coordination routines, and Griffin's blocking and dismantling is even more handy.
And Li Liang is on the court, and the individual creativity and enthusiasm of other players are quite good, which causes the Knicks' defense to fail to grasp the focus.
Griffin and Jordan Jr. successively received Li Liang's passes, relayed in the air, and scored with a violent dunk!
The Knicks also had a dunk maniac, but now they can only sit on the bench and watch their opponents wreak havoc on the basket.
At the end of the second quarter, the Clippers managed to regain the initiative and ended the first half with a three-point lead over the Knicks at 53:50.
At halftime, Mike Brown quietly asked Li Liang in the locker room, "Bruce, where did you learn to change direction with the dribble behind your back and shoot three-pointers?" ”
In the entire team, if you want to say that the one who pays the most attention to Li Liang is definitely Mike Brown.
Don't forget, Mike Brown's ultimate goal now is not to win championships, but to produce the greatest basketball player in history.
So Mike Brown is quite concerned about Li Liang's every move or technical move.
It's just that Mike Brown has always been very strange, Li Liang trains late and leaves early all year round, and sometimes doesn't come all day, where did he learn these technical moves?
In the summer, I didn't see any well-known trainers or stars he worked with.
At that time, Mike Brown thought that Li Liang was satisfied with his current technical level, as long as he carefully polished his three-point and outside defense, to ensure that he was not injured, and had a foothold in the NBA, there was no problem at all.
Another 60 points in the finals, the rookie season FMVP is enough for him to go down in history.
Who knew that after arriving at the Clippers, he really practiced holding the ball when he said that he was holding the ball.
And the speed is improving almost with the naked eye, with every game improving.
From being jerky at the beginning, to becoming more and more comfortable now, this kid is simply a genius!
And geniuses also need teachers and Bole, Mike Brown firmly believes that he is Li Liang's Bole.
Faced with Brown's question, Li Liang thought for a while and replied, "You asked me to practice!" I take time to practice my dribbling after training every day. But I don't use it much, it's just luck. ”
When Li Liang said this, Brown frowned, and said in his heart, did I really let him practice again?
But this time I really can't remember, will I let him practice such a detailed technical move?
Of course it's impossible to talk nonsense, you're also the team's defensive coach, and you're not a technical coach, so where can you manage it so finely.
And Li Liang's so-called training after training is even more nonsense, sometimes you don't come to training, you practice a yarn.
His so-called extra training is all in the system, and recently he finished Maravich's course overtime.
I feel like my finger is going to break, and the ring is really not so easy to wear.
However, the effect is still there, such as changing direction and dribbling from behind, which Li Liang could only use when playing in the past, can also be used in the game.
Over time, his possession will become more and more fluid.
When the time comes, Paul you can be safely traded.
At the start of the second half, Mike Brown was still a little confused, when did I let him practice the back dribble?
And Li Liang can't manage so much, he is going to kill in the second half.
Li Liang hit three three-pointers in the entire first half and scored 14 points, which is still far from paying tribute to Paul.
On the first offense in the third quarter, Li Liang received Griffin's pass and hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc.
Li Liang's current three-point shooting is becoming more and more handy, and his practice of catching the ball is getting better and better.
On the Knicks' side, Field passed the ball to Chandler and got a free hand, and the Clippers' interior defense was leaky.
Once Li Liang leaves the No. 4 position, it is easy to get out of the gap.
But at this time, Li Liang was too lazy to scold Griffin, he needed to score.
[Three-point shooting percentage improvement post (a)]!
Li Liang used a 5-minute boost post, and after holding the ball on the outside and using Griffin's cover to find a gap, he shot quickly!
Li Liang's skill [Zero Second Shot] is already level three, and the speed of the shot is quite fast.
And Anthony defends Li Liang, and the sticker is not tight enough at all.
Anthony is like that, his talent and effort are all focused on the single offense, and he is too rough in terms of defense, organization, etc.
This also greatly limits his personal ceiling, resulting in him never being able to compare with LeBron James.
Sure enough, Anthony hit two three-pointers in Li Liang, and he was also counterattacking China's three-point shot, and he also hit!
Isn't it just a big score? Who has my melon brother been afraid of in society?
Li Liang's rhythm in the second half was very good, and he knew that this was about to start scoring points with Anthony.
The Knicks don't have much hope of making the playoffs right now, and fans just want to see Anthony and the opposing stars compete with each other.
In the face of Li Liang's scoring challenge, how could Anthony, the former scoring champion, be timid.
But Anthony, you forgot, this No. 28 across from you is the one who scored 60 points in the finals.
There is a magical power in his body that is difficult for ordinary people to fathom, and it will burst out with extraordinary potential.
Of course, to put it bluntly, it's the system.
A man with a system!
You can't compete with him.
Li Liang deliberately assembled the Hand Feeling Runes before the competition, and also installed five [Physical Fitness Runes].
In fact, Li Liang's physical fitness has always been no problem.
And the significance of his assembling the physical rune is that the physical energy rune has other functions.
[Physical Rune: Improves the physical fitness of players and has a positive impact on hand feel and defensive intensity. 】
