Li Liang stole Parker's skills and helped the Thunder break the scoring drought in the second half.

But the Thunder's offense didn't get any better, and the Spurs pressed on and tied the score with 4:28 left in the third quarter.

Danny Green received a pass from Ade and hit a three-pointer in the bottom right corner.

67:67, in the third quarter, the Spurs beat the Thunder 22:9, erasing the 13-point difference in one fell swoop.

Donovan called a timeout midway through the third quarter to make adjustments, but it didn't work.

The best three players were on the court, but they just couldn't get the ball into the basket.

Li Liang also found a problem, he, Durant, and Westbrook all wanted to stand up and solve the problem to help the team.

But when I see the other person standing up, I think, "Why don't I share the ball and play one by one." ”

The recklessness of the first half was defused by the Spurs' gritty rotation, and they themselves fell into the obstacles they had set up.

Players need to feel when they are attacking on the field, and this feeling needs to be continuous in order to win and really burst.

Once it's intermittent, it becomes piecemeal, and there's no way to bring out all the states.

When there are two people, the ball distribution is still enough, everyone takes turns to control, and they throw or pass.

Now the three of them are obviously a bit messy.

Li Liang wanted to shout, "Get out of the way and let me come!" ”

But he doesn't think it's the solution, it's only the first game of the season, and there's still a long way to come.

Obviously, Li Liang has encountered problems that the Lakers, Clippers, and Pacers have not encountered - Lao Tzu has never fought such a rich battle.

Like in the Pacers, Li Liang knew that Lao Tzu was the core of the whole team, and the opponent's defense was also aimed at me, so I did it alone.

From the first half to the third quarter, from the third quarter to the last moment of the fourth quarter, if you can't drink Gatorade, Li Liang's state will soon be able to play.

In the Clippers, Li Liang and Paul are basically double-headed, and the division of labor is very clear, Li Liang attacked, Paul organized, and Griffin was used as a fake starter with a substitute.

At that time, Li Liang was not a big brother in the Lakers, squatting in the bottom corner, stealing chickens, you can do it.

Now this kind of situation is indeed something that Li Liang has never encountered.

Don't say that Donovan is a little confused, Li Liang himself is a little confused.

After the score was tied, Donovan called another long timeout.

This time he was no longer silent, but shouted: "Fight decisively!" Decisive! Bruce, you're the main attacker! Turn the tide of things! ”

Donovan has finally started assigning tasks, and all right, it's up to Bruce Lee.

Donovan thought that this time Li Liang came, and if Li Liang was in average state in the next game, he would be Durant.

The next one for Westbrook?

I don't know, anyway, I still have to clarify the main direction of attack for a period of time.

None of the other players objected.

Durant doesn't seem to have an opinion, after all, he can't open a trumpet on the court, and if he can, he may have an opinion.

Donovan laid out two post-pick-and-roll tactics, and Durant was assigned to the bottom corner.

No rut, squat.

Durant crouched in the corner, and to be honest, it was a bit wasteful.

But there is no way, the bottom corner is there, and there is always someone going to squat.

After returning to the court after the timeout, Li Liang began to frequently block and dismantle with Westbrook.

Donovan also replaced Roberson and brought on Vitesse to bolster his ball-handling point on the perimeter.

The two little men held the ball and played a two-person rotation routine with Li Liang, and the Spurs soon became a little overwhelmed.

After Li Liang blocked and dismantled, he first made two consecutive outside cuts, and hit a mid-range jumper after receiving the ball.

Then, it was down after the block, and the goods didn't go to the basket, and the close-range pull-up jump shot was hit again.

scored six points in a row, but the Spurs missed three consecutive attacks.

The Thunder have rediscovered their game feel, and the hardness and strength on the defensive end have returned.

Then, Westbrook was able to block and dismantle Li Liang again, this time Li Liang was strictly guarded, and Westbrook seized the opportunity to kill it in one step!

Gaps leaked under the basket as Durant opened up a huge amount of space on the wing.

Westbrook took a direct stride, bounced up quickly, and split the buckle with one hand!

Westbrook's dunks are always so shocking, like a monkey jumping out of a crack in a rock, let alone stopping, you may not be able to keep up with your eyes.

The small climax of 8:0, Durant never touched the ball from beginning to end......

It's a little hurt, although Durant has played a big role in pulling in, but if you look at the data, Durant just doesn't have any data.

There was not even a mistake, because I didn't touch the ball, and I didn't qualify for a mistake.

Basketball is like this, a few strong people get together, not necessarily better than a few people with ordinary strength but a clear division of labor.

In team sports, individual ability ultimately has to be fed back into the team.

If the integration is good, the team energy will be great, and if the integration is not good, it is the tragedy that 1+1 is less than 2.

Like the Utah Jazz in 1998, if you look at the strength of each player, it is not necessarily better than the Lakers that year.

As a result, in the playoffs, the Jazz killed the Lakers with O'Neal, Van Exel, Jones and Kobe Bryant 4-0.

In the first half, the Thunder relied on their individual ability to overwhelm the Spurs, and in the second half, the Spurs regrouped and slowly recovered the situation.

And once the Thunder clarified the main point of attack and "wasted" Durant, the offensive efficiency immediately came up.

So...... Do you want to trade Durant?

Presti, who was sitting on the sidelines, certainly wouldn't think so.

It's the regular season, and when it comes to the playoffs, one more superstar has one more chance of winning, let alone a Durant one.

You still have to be patient, the first game is not over yet.

But the task of integrating the Big Three, Donovan and his coaching staff, must have a lot of work to do.

Like when James went to the Big Three of the Heat, it was very difficult to run in at the beginning, and in the end, he did not get the first place in the East at the end of the regular season, but was surpassed by the Bulls.

After the Thunder's offense went well, they successfully turned the tide in the third quarter.

Li Liang's scoring explosiveness is indeed strong, and once he feels it, it is a continuous goal.

So when he was with the Pacers, a lot of fans nicknamed him "Golden Bomber", or "Corn Bomber." ”

By the time of the Thunder, the color of the clothes had changed, and there could be no more golden bombers.

But his ability to bomb opponents' baskets hasn't changed.

Li Liang obviously still closed the play, and his three points were not shot tonight.

In the fourth quarter, the two sides still played very intensely, and the Spurs did not give up chasing points, and they were as tough as ever.

Spurs' young players have shown amazing talent in the transition.

Wiggins and Booker are completely unafraid of their opponents and continue to use their individual abilities to score points.

Wiggins hit Durant twice in the low post, while Booker made a three-pointer from the outside.

To be honest, seeing the performance of these two men, Popovich will feel that Leonard's departure in the summer may not be a bad thing.

The margin has always remained between 5 and 10 points, and the Thunder have not been able to make a final decision.

In the last four minutes of the fourth season, Wiggins held the ball on the outside and made a pull-up jump shot after facing Durant's breakthrough, causing Durant to foul.

Durant was in a hurry all of a sudden, why did Lao Tzu TM foul again?

Durant didn't play a good first game, the offense wasn't happy, and the defense wasn't happy.

On the offensive end, there is Li Liang, although he does not steal the ball, but he still feels uncomfortable.

Especially in the third quarter, he was sent to squat in the bottom corner, and the team turned the tide because of this.

The defensive end was eaten up by Wiggins several times today, and the sophomore, who was surprisingly good at the low post.

And there was no stage fright at all on the Thunder's home court, and he played quite beautifully, which made Durant quite embarrassed.

Wiggins hit both free throws to close the margin to just three points.

This time Durant couldn't bear it, and he blocked and dismantled Westbrook in the middle, and it was Li Liang's turn to squat in the bottom corner!

Li Liang squatted in the bottom corner, the power was great, the black hole in the bottom corner could suck everything.

His three-point shooting percentage in the bottom left corner is terrifying, hitting 67 percent, which is two out of three.

This hit rate is already a bit unbelievable, and of course he doesn't throw much, because the opponent doesn't throw it for him.

But once he goes to the bottom corner, the Spurs' defensive center inevitably leans towards him.

So Durant and Westbrook cut outside after blocking and dismantling, and hit a three-point shot directly at the top of the arc!

After scoring the goal, Durant was quite excited, beating his chest and roaring, venting all the frustration in his heart.

Li Liang stepped forward to high-five him, and Durant said, "Your effect of squatting in the bottom corner is also good." ”

Li Liangpi smiled but didn't smile, "Your effect must be better, don't you believe it?" ”

The two stopped bickering and threw themselves into the defense.

This time, Li Liang stabbed the ball in Ade's hand with a "death entanglement" in the low post.

He dribbled the ball across the half court by himself, and when he reached the top of the arc, Durant asked for the ball in the bottom corner, and Li Liang pretended to pass the ball, but as soon as he made a gesture with his hand, he immediately took it back.

On the right side, the distance between the sides of the three-point line, direct three-point shot.

Also in it!

Two three-pointers, the difference was nine points, and the game was less than three minutes away.

Popovich let out a long sigh, what a rut.

What kind of garbage tactics did the Thunder play, there was no tactic at all at the last moment.

But these two people just threw the ball in, what can you do about you?

"How? You're better than mine, right? ”

"No, yours is better, you should try more."

"You try more, the bottom corner is good for thinking about life."

"I don't need to."

"You need."

"I don't need to."

"You need."
