Chapter 741: Li Liang recites the scriptures
After the timeout, Curry hit a three-point shot from a breakaway feint and a pullback against Hill.
In these few games, Curry finally slowly recovered, and his touch and confidence outside the three-point line were regained.
But immediately, Hill held the ball and attacked Curry's point, forced Curry to rush in, and the last difficult throw shot hit the board!
The Warriors' defensive focus is mainly on Li Liang, and the rest of the Pacers must seize their opportunities and play their offensive abilities, and the Pacers need to blossom in full swing.
Immediately afterwards, Thompson missed a three-point shot from the outside, Li Liang got the rebound, held the ball for half the court, and gave the ball to Danny Granger who was inserted in the middle on the wing, and Granger hit the basket and also hit a throw!
At the beginning of an 8:3, the Pacers focused on attacking the Warriors' interior line, magnifying the shortcomings of the five small interior line to protect the basket.
And the Warriors' weapon is still their sharp three-point shot.
Thompson, who missed his first three-point shot, found another opportunity in the bottom right corner, and immediately made a three-point shot after receiving the ball, and hit!
Once the Warriors start playing five, they get faster from the outside, and for Curry and Thompson, 0.1 seconds faster means an extra shot gap that they can use to shoot in.
It quickly trailed 8-6, and then Green steals Granger on the defensive end, and the Warriors counterattack.
Green wanted to rush to the basket with the ball by himself, but Li Liang blocked it at the top of the arc, and Green didn't dare to rush.
I can't rush this, I don't dare to rush.
Or give the ball to Curry, who is keeping up, Curry makes another three-point shot, and hits again!
Curry hit two three-pointers in the first quarter, and three three-pointers were shot, and the Warriors had an 8-9 lead.
At this time, Li Liang immediately returned the color.
Block and dismantle in the high position, withdraw outside, receive Hill's pass, shoot three points from a long distance, and also hit!
Watching Li Liang throw three points is like watching an ancient long-arm trebuchet attacking the city, the moment he scores, it is equivalent to smashing the opponent's city gate, and the Conseco Arena can be said to be jubilant.
At 11:9, the Pacers regained the lead.
Then, the Pacers defended the Warriors for nearly 24 seconds, and finally Barnes forced a pass, but was cut off by Li Liang!
In the second steal of the first quarter, Li Liang held the ball and advanced quickly, and Curry couldn't get a foul and didn't give Li Liang a chance to counterattack.
Li Liang said to Curry: "You shouldn't be fouled, you shouldn't be fouled!" ”
Curry felt a little bad when he heard Li Liang say this.
Sure enough, after sending the sideline ball, Hill came over to block and dismantle Li Liang, and after changing the defense, Li Liang attacked Curry directly.
Squeezed Curry and rushed in, then hit a pull-up jump shot and hit two points.
If this ball does not change the defense, Li Liang will directly score three points, and the Warriors' current defensive strategy is to change the defense against Li Liang.
Green, Thompson, Iguodala, and Barnes can all defend against Li Liang, and the four-man wheel battle.
Only Curry couldn't defend it, and with the first foul, he didn't dare to foul the second time.
At 13:9, the difference came to 4 points.
There are no secrets between the two sides in terms of tactics, it is all about morale, state, and the responsiveness of the players on the field.
Li Liang's reaction is really fast, he has too much experience in the competition.
After attacking Curry, he immediately made another offensive foul on Curry on the defensive end......
Curry's offensive foul is very, very rare, he has always been cautious and not reckless in his breakthrough, but Li Liang still took advantage of the opportunity to change the defense and let Curry "justly" knock him down, and the referee mercilessly blew Curry to hit people with the ball.
Curry had to bite the braces and go to rest, and the first quarter lasted less than five minutes.
Without Curry, the Warriors' offense collapsed and had to fall into more one-on-one battles.
At this time, it was Thompson who stood up.
He successfully defended JR Smith and then hit another three-pointer on the counterback!
Thompson's three-pointer came to feel, and he was even more of a threat from beyond the three-point line than Curry in this series.
Of course, this also has something to do with the Pacers' defensive strategy.
But every time this happens, Li Liang must stand up.
This time it was Danny Granger and JR Smith's double cover, the Warriors players thought Li Liang was going to shoot, and they all pounced, but Li Liang accelerated and broke through between the two defenders, and after entering the basket, facing Green who was making up for the defense, he opened the [Rain Man's Umbrella], and slapped Green with another heavy dunk on his head and face!
Green is really a dog, why did Lao Tzu come to make up for it? Just to be the backdrop is buttoned up?
Damn, if you don't make up for it in the future, you might as well let him buckle it.
Li Liang, who combines inside and outside, is very scary, and with the help of the rain man's umbrella, this dunk is earth-shattering, and it will undoubtedly become one of the classic goals in this finals.
It's just that Li Liang's heart is dripping blood, a dunk, 500 anger points, it's really a robbery.
After a back-and-forth attack, the two sides fell into a scoring drought for the next three minutes, and both began to fail to score.
Because the defensive intensity on both sides is gradually increasing, the referee's penalty scale is slowly loosening, giving the team more room for confrontation.
The score of 15:12 lasted for a while, until Green grabbed a rebound in the frontcourt, caused a defensive foul on Li Liang under the basket, and got a free throw opportunity, and the score changed.
One of two free throws, 15:13, the two sides entered an official timeout.
The Pacers played with momentum, but didn't turn momentum into a real advantage.
The Warriors were a little more efficient offensively and played tenaciously.
After Curry went off the court, the Warriors entered a strong defensive mode, fighting with the Pacers to defend, suppressing the rhythm of the game, and not allowing the Pacers to use speed to open up the difference.
Li Liang is still heavily guarded, and tactically speaking, there is no change between the two sides, and there is no room for stealing chickens, which is a white-knuckle battle.
At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors switched to Azeli, and the corresponding Pacers put Garnett on the court.
The continuous five-small confrontation is a huge loss on the bodies of the players on both sides.
At the same time, in order not to let Li Liang fall into foul trouble, Bird replaced Li Liang off the court in advance.
Garnett has basically not had any opportunities to play in the last two games, but as soon as he came out this time, he immediately hit a high jumper!
Then he blocked Iguodala's breakaway under the basket and grabbed the rebound in the backcourt.
In the moment they got closest to the championship, each of the Pacers was squeezing out their remaining energy.
Then, Garnett made a foul on Azeli after blocking it in the high post, and made both free throws.
He also did a few push-ups to boost the morale of the whole team.
Once the Warriors don't have a five-man lineup, they really can't beat the Pacers.
At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led the Warriors by five points at 27:22.
The situation is quite unfavorable for the Warriors.
After the start of the second quarter, Kerr quickly let Curry come on the court.
In fact, Kerr didn't want Curry to go on so quickly, because he had two fouls on his back, and another foul would be over.
But there is no way, Curry is no longer on it, and the Warriors' offense will not be able to open with five small shots, and it will be worn to death by the Pacers.
After Curry came on the court, he immediately broke through the ball to Azeli, and Azeli made a defensive foul on Garnett under the basket.
At this time, Li Liang also went on, and he replaced Garnett.
When Li Liang came on the court, he looked at Curry with obvious ill intentions.
Aizeli hit both free throws, Li Liang received the baseline serve, and after halftime, he beckoned Hill to block for himself.
After the first block, the Warriors used the fastest speed to change the defense first, and then switch back immediately.
That is, Curry came over to stop it first, and then Thompson switched positions with Curry to prevent Li Liang from attacking Curry.
It's a bit of a hassle, but it's the best way to protect Curry.
But Curry came over to stop him, and he heard something faintly in his ears:
"Therefore, it is known that Prajnaparamita is a mantra of mistakes, a mantra of iron, a mantra of fouls, a mantra of blindness, and can remove all suffering!"
There was a sudden explosion in his ear, and Curry rushed at Li Liang to dig it out!
Something happened with this digging, foul!
The referee actually didn't want to blow it, but the foul was too obvious, and his arm hit Li Liang's hand directly, and it was completely unreasonable not to blow it.
Curry is stupid, Kerr is stupid, you will give me a foul if you go up?
No way, Kerr could only replace Curry and ask, "What's going on?" Why foul? Want to get started? ”
Curry spread his hands helplessly, "I don't know! I don't know how! I feel...... I don't know what's going on! ”
After saying that, he sat on the bench in frustration, drooped his head, and spit out his braces.
What the hell is going on with you?
