There are three minutes left until the third quarter.

Mike Brown played tricks on the rotation and let Kobe, Nash, and Li Liang go down to rest early.

Howard played for a while, and in the last three or four quarters, he replaced Li Liang on the court.

Prepare to start the fourth quarter and replace Kobe Bryant and Nash, the two outside offensive cores.

The main thing about this is to give the veteran players a little more rest and disrupt the Bobcats' rotation.

Of course, Brown can't help it, he fell behind so much all of a sudden, and after playing for a while in the third quarter, he felt that he couldn't catch up, so it was better to change the formation and give it a try.

After Li Liang returned to the court, Brown hoped that he would use his defense and passion to rekindle the fighting spirit of the Lakers.

Along with Li Liang, Du Hong was also substituted, who replaced Blake, who played averagely.

If Blake continues to be so iron-clad, he will be completely abandoned by Brown.

As soon as Li Liang appeared, Brown could finally sit back on the bench, otherwise he would not dare to go back.

The ball is still Bobcat's, serve the baseline ball.

Ben Gordon receives the ball from the outside, and after consecutive dribbles and pick-and-rolls, he goes inside.

Li Liang switched guards from the middle and kept covering Ben Gordon.

Gordon forced a layup and missed, and O'Neal Jr. took the rebound.

Handing over the ball to Meeks, Li Liang shouted "Run!" ”

Meeks wanted to stop and stabilize the ball, but was yelled at by Li Liang, and his butt was on fire and rushed forward.

The Bobcats' defense has not been good, but the Lakers are not willing to fight back tonight, and they can't seize opportunities.

This time, Meeks rushed to the basket, pushed past the Bobcats' defender, and forced a layup!

Missed......

Meeks is strong and rushes like a small steel egg.

But he is not tall and has an average arm span, so his finishing ability under the basket is not strong.

At this time, Li Liang followed from behind and made a basket.

58:67, narrowing the margin to single digits.

This was one of the few quick counter-attack scores for the Lakers in this game, and it was also Li Liang's first frontcourt rebound.

Quick counterattacks, rebounds in the front court, these are all signs of energy.

But to really turn the situation around, it still depends on the defense.

Henderson dribbled on the perimeter looking for an opportunity, and Mullens came over to cover.

Li Liang stood in a good position, Mullens wanted to go down, Li Liang stood in a good position, so that Henderson did not dare to pass.

In the end, Henderson made a three-point shot from the outside, and the ball brushed out of the basket.

He had a good hand tonight and the goal almost went in.

Li Liang grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and handed the ball to Du Hong.

Du Hong quickly dribbled across the half court, rushed to the free throw line, and distributed the ball to Li Liang in the bottom corner.

Jamison and Shaw both squeezed into the three-second zone, drawing the Bobcats' defense.

Li Liang seemed to be about to pass the ball to Jamison, but he transferred the ball to Meeks at 45 degrees on the right side.

Meeks was already empty in front of him, and he hit a three-point shot from the ball!

At 61:67, as soon as Li Liang came on the court, he recovered 5 points at once, narrowing the difference to only 6 points.

The Bobcat immediately called a timeout, feeling that the situation was a little bad.

The fans at the scene were very happy, and many of them were wearing Lakers jerseys.

After the timeout, the Bobcats played with a lot of purpose, and they sought to stabilize and let Mullens hold the ball in the low post and play alone.

Mullens is a player who feels good to shoot and has a certain amount of footwork.

O'Neill Jr. can withstand him, but he can't keep up with him.

Mullens turned inside and hit a two-point shot with a flick of his right hand.

Li Liang still wanted to make up for the defense, but Mulens' height and arm span advantage was too obvious to reach at all.

It seems that the work of supplementing the defense under the basket really depends on talent.

No matter how much Li Liang has done in the task, he has no hard foundation in bounce, arm span, and height, and many times it still doesn't work.

61:69, 8 mins, the third quarter is about to end.

After the Lakers rushed two balls, this ball played the position, and if they didn't rush, they wanted a success rate.

They ran a UCLA-CUT tactic.

Du Hong distributed the ball to Jamison on the wing, and Li Liang made a blocking cover for Du Hong in the high post, allowing Du Hong to cut to the basket.

Li Liang pulled away from the three-point line by himself, and Jamison saw that Du Hong had no chance and returned the ball to Li Liang.

Then Jamison went to the waist position to make the wall, Dujon cut back to the three-point line, and Jamison cut inside.

Li Liang has two options, give the ball to Du Hong, have a three-point shot, and he can pass the ball when he gets it.

The second is to pass the ball to Jamison, who has a chance under the basket.

This kind of classic small combination is generally played by players who have gone to college.

Li Liang judged it in a short time, he pretended to pretend to share the ball to Du Hong, but suddenly a long pass to the inside, Jamison dodged the defense after receiving the ball and made a layup.

This ball passed very beautifully, and Li Liang didn't use the skill of [One Shot into the Soul].

63:69, 2 points again.

After that, both sides missed once on offense, and then Jamison drew a foul on the opponent and hit one of two free throws from the free throw line, 69-64, with only five points to go.

But in the end, the Lakers made two mistakes, one was that the Bobcats' quick counterattack still rushed up.

Drew a foul on O'Neal Jr. under the basket, and Sessions hit both free throws to make it 71-64.

Then Dujon made a mistake in the pass and was countered by the Bobcats, and Jeff Taylor received a pass from Ben Gordon and dunked it with both hands!

At 73:64, the difference was nine points again.

With five seconds left in the third quarter, Li Liang knew he had to score a goal.

Otherwise, Lao Tzu will win back 2 points in three minutes, what a loss of face.

And Li Liang hasn't hit a three-pointer in this game, so he can't let Kobe look down on him.

After serving in the backcourt, Meeks received the ball, and Li Liang gave him a look.

Meeks understood and took the ball quickly across the half-court.

The Bobcats' defense is also upright, and anyway, if someone rushes at them, they shrink, and they shrink all at once.

Missed Li Liang, who was following behind, Meeks turned around and passed, and Li Liang hit the ball outside the three-point line!

Three points at the whistle!

67：74！

It's only 7 points away, and it's a good job to complete the task.

At the end of the third quarter, Li Liang returned to the court, and when he saw Brown, he said: "If you don't let me play early, we will have a tie if you get on the court early!" ”

Mike Brown was helpless, and said in his heart that if he didn't replace you to rest, where would you find your form.

……

The fourth quarter of the game began, and the two sides finally showcased.

It can be said that Li Liang's three-point whistle at the end of the third quarter, as well as the three-minute play, made the momentum of the two sides at the beginning of the fourth quarter completely different.

If the Bobcats lead by more than 10 points into the fourth quarter, they will be more confident and will play more confidently and fluently.

But when it was only 7 points away, it felt different.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, it was still the Lakers round, and the Lakers almost missed the outside pass.

But Meeks stubbornly snatched the ball back, then hit the inside, rolled over and hit a step-back jumper to score two points.

It was a very crucial goal.

If it misses, then the Bobcats are another fast attack.

Now that the score was scored, the margin was narrowed to just 5 points, and the Bobcats got nervous.

The Lakers' perimeter defensive intensity continued to improve, with Li Liang forcing Sessions on the perimeter and letting Cessons pass the ball.

After the last few rotations, Sessions faced Li Liang's defense one-on-one on the outside.

Li Liang directly made a [Death Entanglement] and clicked the ball out of Sessions' hand.

Meeks received the ball and held the ball quickly, faced two defenders under the basket, and passed back to Li Liang, who was following behind.

Li Liang first faked to shake off Taylor, who flew over to block the block, and then hit the three-point shot steadily!

In the case of 4 shots and 0 in the first half, Li Liang's two three-pointers in the second half were both key three-pointers.

Li Liang has now used less three-point shooting to improve the sticker, and he is very confident in his shooting.

Unless it is extremely critical, or the body is tired and the hand feeling is particularly poor, it will come to suppress the shock.

The use of props and skills should be restrained, good steel is used on the blade, and good iron is used on the edge of the basket.

As soon as the goal was scored, 72:74, the Bobcats were suddenly in danger.

The margin narrowed to just two points, and the fourth quarter was just beginning.

Nash, Howard, and Kobe Bryant are still sitting off the court.

The Bobcats didn't call a timeout, and Kemba Walker quickly burst into the half, using his speed to get past Duhon.

Li Liang came over to help defend, Henderson on the flank plugged in, and Walker passed the ball to Henderson.

Henderson shook off Jamison with two consecutive feints, and then made a layup with a big hat from Li Liang, who was guarded over!

It's a pity that Jamieson fouled first, so Henderson has to stand on the free throw line.

One of two free throws, 75-72.

At this time, Kobe, Nash, and Howard are all back on the court.

They've been resting for a long time, and Bryant's sledgehammer is hungry and thirsty.

But the key to controlling the situation is still in Li Liang's hands.

Nash handed over the ball in the middle of the half, allowing Lee to respond.

Li Liang blindly commanded a few times, and suddenly a high hanging pass to the inside, it was Kobe Bryant who cut to the basket and caught the ball and made a layup easily!

One of the ways to prevent Kobe from hitting the iron is to give him a chance to make a layup in the open position, and there is no iron to play!

73:74, 1 point, this 1 point is the psychological defense line of the Bobcats.

Ben Gordon received a pass from Sessions on the outside, shook off Jamison with a three-point feint, took two steps inside, and hit a difficult forward jumper.

73:76, still 3 points.

Jamison is really a colander on the defensive end, unable to keep an eye on people and unable to hold positions.

It is conceivable that Jamison will not have many chances in the playoffs, and this defense is really unwatchable.

It is also possible to use his offense and experience in the regular season.

Then, both sides failed to hit.

Li Liang cut Sessions down in defense.

Bryant took the ball and quickly counterattacked.

After slowing down, he used his defensive attraction to make a clever ground-hitting pass to Li Liang, who was inserted in behind.

Li Liang received the ball and rushed to the basket, and made a layup with his left hand.

The two of them came to hug Li, and Li Liang pointed at Kobe, meaning that he passed well and was sensible, and he will pass the ball to you next time.

Immediately afterwards, Li Liang on the outside poked Kemba Walker's ball again, and this kid is simply everywhere.

The ball was poked to the halfway line, and Walker had to go back to pick it up, and a lot of attacking time was consumed.

The Bobcats can't play tactics anymore, and Walker can only hold the ball and push hard.

As a result, he rushed to the basket and hit Howard with a sturdy blood cap!

The ball was fanned out of the sideline and the Bobcats attacked for 24 seconds.

The Lakers have completely brought the momentum back.

At 75:76, it felt like it was only a matter of time before the Bobcats were breached.

Ci Shiping also returned to the court, and the Lakers had a full lineup.

Li Liang lobbed the ball to Ci Shiping in the low post, and Ci Shiping used his body to force Henderson.

It's a pity that one of the layups under the basket missed, and the rebound also missed.

The two sides trangled for three more rounds with no points on either side.

The lynx gritted its teeth and stubbornly held on to this 1-point psychological defense line, just like men and women are in love, there is only one *** left, in fact, there is no difference, but it just doesn't take off.

It seems that if you don't take off, you can avoid the artillery fire.

It's just a matter of time.

Who else can you see in this case, of course, Li Liang!

Li Liang was ambushed in the bottom right corner, and suddenly came out with the help of Howard's cover.

Receive Kobe's pass at 45 degrees on the right side and shoot directly into three-point shots!

The shot was so sudden that the Bobcats defenders didn't react, and the ball flew to the basket with a swish.

Then with a "bang", the ball goes in!

It was taken off.

78:76, a two-point overtake at once.

The bobcat's side is leaking all of a sudden, and the momentum is leaking.

There were 7 minutes left until the end of the fourth quarter.

When Li Liang scored this goal, the subtitles flashed in front of him:

[Congratulations, you have obtained the achievement, hit the 166th three-pointer of the season, reward: one chance to draw the lucky wheel, please enter the system to view. 】

Li Liang took a look, huh? I actually got a chance to draw a lottery.

Why is it the number 166? Is it because of Geely?

Or is it as profound as 58?

Li Liang didn't know.

It was his 51st NBA game and he hasn't missed a single game this season.

After hitting his 166th three-pointer, he averaged 3.2 three-pointers per game.

It is the tallest of all rookie players in NBA history, and the height is terrifying.

In the 2005-2006 season, Kobe Bryant averaged just 2.3 three-pointers per game.

The player who averaged the most three-point shots per game in his previous rookie season was Stephen Curry in the '09-10 season.

He averaged 2.1 three-pointers per game and shot the best 43 percent from the field.

Li Liang has now played 51 games and has improved that record to 3.2, and his shooting percentage is even higher to 48%.

More than Kobe Bryant's two-point shooting percentage.

Although it can't be compared with Curry in terms of difficulty in shooting, the Lakers have too few three-point shots, and the whole team is doing three-point tactics for him.

But this hit rate, the number of hits, is quite terrible.

The game went on, no one knew about the achievement, and the commentator didn't pay attention.

Only Li Liang himself noticed that he felt that he was really an all-star!
