Chapter 440: Can't Fall

?? How could Li Liang put up his flag before the game, beat him into a piece of during the game, and then be poisoned by the New York media after the game?

In this regard, Li Liang and Kobe Bryant are very similar, even if Lao Tzu throws the ball himself, he will not allow such a situation to occur.

However, Li Liang is a little different from Kobe, he is more rational and calm than Kobe.

Although he was tempted to take a pill and beat the Nets to death with a three-pointer at the start of the third quarter, it was not realistic to look closely.

First of all, Li Liang's three-point hand tonight is not good, and the use of props in this situation will also be discounted.

Secondly, the Clippers are in average condition as a team now, and the defense is naturally porous due to the absence of the front.

If you want to solve the problem in the second half, you must first solve the defense, and secondly, you have to play better on the offensive end.

The Nets' defensive strategy worked in the second quarter, locking up Li Liang and letting Paul play alone, and the rest of the offense was not a constant threat at all.

You Jamison scored 6 points in a row, or Jordan Jr. made fouls under the basket, whatever you want, you can't beat the Nets.

It can be seen that for this game, Kidd, the Nets coaching staff and the players have made very good preparations.

With such an unfavorable start to the first quarter, he did not panic and forced the situation back.

After all, it is a team composed of veterans, Pierce and Garnett are old, old and not dead are thieves, and they are not panicked at all when they fall behind at the beginning, and Pierce's organization and three points in the transition stage are an important help for the Nets to stabilize the situation and tie the score.

At halftime, Rivers rearranged the team's offensive and defensive strategies.

This time, Li Liang no longer dragged Paul and Griffin into a small group of three, but calmed down and listened carefully.

This proper headwind, the downwind has to be waves, and the headwind has to be carried.

If you want to wave by yourself, you can carry it on everyone, Li Liang understands this truth very well.

So Rivers made adjustments, and Li Liang listened very carefully.

When Li Liang was in the Lakers, he was like this, he played smoothly, and he felt that there was no problem, Kobe Bryant and Nash were combined, and they had all the ways to play.

Once there is a headwind, adjustments need to be made in defense and arrangement, and Li Liang will obediently listen to Mike Brown's arrangement.

What does this mean?

It shows that Li Liang's ball bully is not thorough and perfect enough.

If he does all the coaching work one day, he will be a real ball bully.

Rivers made a clear adjustment, which was to let Li Liangduo go to the No. 3 position.

He decided to change his previous rotation routine and not let Griffin go halfway through and then come back with a second team.

Without small forward support, the Clippers' front line was too tight.

Once Li Liang reached the No. 4 position, he quickly counterattacked and played with one less point of forward rush.

And the Clippers need to play a beautiful offense in the second half.

"Bruce, the second lineup will let you take it, and if you can, you won't have a break in the third quarter."

Rivers clearly told Li Liang that Lao Tzu was going to you hard.

Li Liang said that there is no problem, Lao Tzu is very durable.

In terms of physical strength, energy and physical resistance to injuries, Li Liang has absolute confidence in himself.

His physical fitness is very good, and with the rune bonus, playing more than 40 minutes in a game is a small problem for him.

The second half is about to begin.

The TV station listed some statistics from both sides in the first half.

The Clippers shot just 3-of-13 from three-point range and 11-of-18 from the free-throw line.

And the Nets' three-point shot was a staggering 4-of-7 shooting, more than 50 percent shooting.

The free throws were 18 of 18 free throws, and not a single opportunity was wasted.

It can be said that from the court, the Nets did not seem to suppress the Clippers too much, but some details were indeed better than the Clippers and seized the opportunity.

In terms of turnovers, the Nets scored 13 points, while the Clippers only scored 1 point!

As an offensive team that uses quick counterattacks as its signature, it is really unreasonable to catch mistakes in the half game and only score 1 point.

At the beginning of the second half, Li Liang passed the ball to Griffin, and Griffin forced Garnett to rush to the basket, causing Garnett to foul and go to the free throw line.

The Clippers' offense starts with showing enough aggression first, and Griffin has to hit that point.

In the past, Li Liang was known as the "Lakers Barometer" when he was in the Lakers.

Li Liang plays well, the Lakers can win nine times out of ten, and if they don't play well, the Lakers are more than lucky.

After coming to the Clippers, Li Liang's performance has been very stable and has become a sunny day doll.

And the function of the barometer came to Griffin's head.

Griffin became the team's third choice, the leader of the second team.

When he plays well, the team generally wins.

If he doesn't play well, the Clippers are in some trouble.

Griffin played badly in the first half, repeatedly suffering from deflated faces of the 37-year-old Garnett.

It fully shows that the arm length is still useful!

Griffin used his footwork and impact to win two free throws on his youth.

With both free throws, the Clippers got off to a good start in the third quarter.

The Nets also chose to start from the inside.

After Williams didn't have a chance to get out of the way, Joe Johnson passed the ball to Lopez in the low post.

Lopez beat Little Jordan with his back, obviously struggling, and he couldn't get in!

Not only did he not go in, but at the moment when he wanted to hook his hand, Li Liang, who was suddenly caught up, cut off the ball!

Li Liang's hand is really fast, after breaking the ball, he immediately dribbled the ball himself and killed the front court!

Rivers asked for more pace in the half-time and less passing on quick counter-attacks.

Because the Nets' retreat and passing delay are quite powerful, it is better to take the ball yourself or rush.

Li Liang held the ball all the way to the three-second zone, and Garnett had already rushed back.

It is worthy of fighting and retreating Garnett, and the retreat is really fast.

Li Liang will not go to the basket, and he will never go to the basket in his life.

With a pull-up jump shot, he didn't feel very sure, so he learned Paul to slip out of the baseline and then make a beautiful ground-hitting pass to Griffin, who was keeping up.

Griffin finally seized the opportunity, jumped high, and won the one-arm slam dunk!

Griffin had such a chance in the first half, only to be fouled by the Nets.

This time the Nets counterattacked quickly, and the Nets players were too late to foul, and they were finally dunked by Griffin's head.

After scoring four straight points in the opening game, Griffin was putting pressure on the Nets' interior.

It was Joe Johnson who responded from the Nets.

Williams quickly passed the half-court and immediately handed the ball to Johnson in the low post.

Johnson ate Li Liang with his back to him, slipped to the bottom line after turning around, and then made another small throw and hit a two-point shot!

The ball not only hit, but also caused Li Liang's defensive foul and had to be penalized.

Li Liang was so angry that he smashed the ball, and the ball was really not well guarded.

After all, it is a contemporary Jordan, and Li Liang still has a lot to learn from the technical flow of defending such a strong single ability.

Thinking about the peak Jordan in the system, Li Liang felt that he had a long way to go.

Johnson misses a free throw, and the Clippers grab the rebound.

This ball Li Liang continued to accelerate and rush, and then distributed the ball to Griffin, who was following on the wing.

Griffin used his forward-like body to force a punch to the basket, causing another defensive foul on Garnett.

The Nets were a bit of a bad mess at this point, and Garnett had four fouls at the beginning of the third quarter.

Griffin made a free throw, and Garnett was replaced by Blatch.

After all, he is too old to withstand such a strong rush from young people.

Li Liang and Griffin high-fived, and the cooperation strategy of the two worked.

The Nets used the interior player's blocking ability to hinder Paul's fast break.

No matter how good Paul passes, limited by his height and not getting the ball at the first time, he will always be hindered.

Now that Paul doesn't take the ball, Li Liang comes to take the ball and push the counterattack.

Li Liang took the rebound as soon as possible, and looked for Griffin after half time, he was taller and had a wider vision.

Griffin received the ball and rushed to the basket, resulting in two fouls on Garnett.

A barrier on the Nets' defensive end was removed, and the Clippers began to go into scoring mode.

However, their own defense also needs to find a way.

After Griffin hit both free throws, the score came to 50:56, and the difference was only 6 points.

Williams made a simple breakaway shot to Joe Johnson on the outside.

Joe Johnson hit a three-pointer to stabilize the situation.

Li Liang then received Paul's pass from the outside, and also hit a three-point shot, which was his second three-pointer of the game.

After scoring the goal, Li Liang waved his fist at the Nets fans in the audience, thinking, are you angry?

No, no, what's so angry about a three-pointer.

After Blatch came on the court, the Nets stepped up their scramble for frontcourt rebounds.

But Griffin's rebounding protection was much more aggressive than in the first half.

Williams misses the shot and Griffin gets the rebound.

Li Liang received the ball and launched a counterattack again, this time without Garnett coming to get in the way, Li Liang slowed down near the three-point line.

Immediately after that, he suddenly accelerated past the defender, and after hitting the inside line, the Nets defense line contracted, and Li Liang made another pass to Little Jordan to the bottom line.

Little Jordan catches the ball with both hands!

At 55:59, with a four-point gap, the Nets called a timeout.

And Li Liang feels that he hasn't really exerted his strength yet.

Nets, you can't go down.
