Chapter 953: It's time to exert force

The Warriors got off to a fantastic start, and for the Kings, they had to move on from the smooth sailing of the first two rounds to adjust to the high-intensity, high-intensity battle at Oracle Arena.

That's right, it's a war on the basketball court.

The warriors are here to fight the king with a life-and-death attitude.

And the king has not yet adapted to such a mentality.

It's normal that the warriors are targeting Li Liang, and the grievances between them and Li Liang are too deep.

I can't help it, I was eliminated year after year, watching the championship slip away from my hand and make someone else's wedding dress.

They had to unite to overthrow Li Liang's rule.

And Li Liang did not stay in the Thunder and chose to go to the Kings, which is undoubtedly the weakest time for Li Liang's team in five years.

He doesn't have home field advantage, he doesn't have superstar teammates, and he's a head coach himself.

In addition to a 12-game winning streak in the early stage of the regular season, the average points per game in the regular season jumped below 30 points, and the playing time was also hip pulling, a major honor, and it is likely to be given to LeBron James at present.

Of course, this won't come to fruition until the season is over.

The Warriors had an astonishing 68-14 record in the regular season, and James was forgiven for winning an MVP to make up for 2013.

So, this is definitely the best time for the Warriors to topple the king.

Warriors fans want to not only overturn it now, but also overwhelm Li Liang and the King in the next four years.

After all, being stationed in Sacramento for a long time, you can't wander around hugging your thighs anymore.

As soon as the first quarter was played, some fans began to announce the king's death sentence.

It can only be said that either some interactive forums are driven by the rhythm of the water army, or some fans really watch the game without using their brains.

The series of strong conversations are always long, and there is no result in one game, let alone a quarter.

By the second quarter, the king was slowly starting to stabilize.

Li Liang changed the team's offensive strategy, and Cousins' low post was completely abandoned.

A large number of outside blocking and dismantling, penetration, reduce ball-holding singles.

Li Liang's position changed from the outside of the first quarter to the inside of the second quarter.

The Kings' host player became Rondo, and Li Liang returned to the No. 4 position and hid in offensive tactics.

This move left the Warriors' defense unfocused.

Originally, Li Liang held a lot of balls, and the Warriors just arranged defense around Li Liang.

As a result, now that Li Liang has started to play without the ball and has begun to steal chickens and dogs, this is not easy to do.

The second quarter was interrupted, and Rondo hit consecutive three-pointers, mid-range, and a breakthrough layup on the counterattack, scoring seven points in a row to stop the Warriors.

The Kings narrowed the deficit to five points.

After the timeout, Li Liang first made a big hat on the defensive end.

Curry's breakthrough was dragged down by Rondo, and when he hit the basket, the speed and jump height were not enough.

Li Liang brought his own [fear in the three-second zone], and slapped Curry into a daze.

Counter-attack, it was still Rondo with the ball.

When Li Liang played with the ball, the king's offense was simple and the impact was strong, and everything was led by Li Liang.

When Li Liang plays without the ball, the king's offense is much more complicated and varied.

Li Liang ran to the basket one by one, and the Warriors were a little empty inside.

Rondo's beautiful through pass to the basket, Li Liang received the ball with his left hand and made a layup, dodged Green's block, and made a layup.

The difference was only three points, and the Kings chased the score very quickly.

Then, the Warriors made another mistake in the offense - in the face of the King's infinite change of defense, the Warriors were obviously a little uncomfortable.

Rondo broke the ball, grabbed the ball in the chaos, and hit the front court, a big open three-point opportunity.

But Rondo pressed down and didn't make a move, but handed it to Li Liang, who was following behind.

Li Liang received the ball and shook a shot, faked past Iguodala, rushed straight to the basket, faced Green in the three-second zone, and once again opened the [Rainman's Umbrella]!

This rain man's umbrella consumes 500 rage points in a single use.

But Li Liang doesn't care, not at this time, but when?

Facing Green, Li Liang burst out, and it was another split buckle between people!

This time Green did not evade the referee, the ball went in, whistled incense, and blew Green's defensive foul.

Two points, Li Liang has to be punished.

Sending Li Liang to the free throw line is to give away points.

The Kings hit a free throw and the Kings tied the score with four minutes left in the second quarter.

However, the Warriors quickly found a way to deal with the Kings' infinite change of defense, which was the ball-handler's single.

For the NBA, there is no defensive tactic that cannot be cracked alone.

If there is, it's that you're not strong enough in singles.

Basketball is ultimately a goal-scoring game that relies on the individual abilities of the players.

Tactics are an aid that can compensate for shortcomings and amplify strengths.

But tactics can't be made out of nothing.

Good tactics can make it easier for you to shoot, but it won't make a shot by a person who can't shoot.

On the other hand, strong players don't need tactics to score goals.

That's why star players are so important in the NBA.

That's why the Warriors are so strong this year.

Curry was on the counterattack, a block and a demolition killed Rondo, broke through the middle, and faced Li Liang's defense, a smooth high throw shot, and hit a two-point shot.

Curry's ball-handling offense can also kill.

Then, Rondo hit a basket on offense, causing Curry to foul and go to the free throw line.

When it came to the West Final, Rondo was really not soft at all and became the most powerful helper by Li Liang's side.

is worthy of being a point guard who has experienced big scenes, and he does have a hand in high-intensity games.

The little advantage the Warriors established in the first quarter was wiped out in the second.

The two sides entered a tug-of-war.

At halftime, the Kings and Warriors were tied at 48-48.

The score of both sides did not break 50 points, judging from the situation in the first half, if you want to have a team score more than 100 in this game, unless it is overtime, it is estimated that it will be difficult.

For the current NBA, scoring less than 100 points is already a very low scoring game.

Push forward 10 years, and the score is more than 100, which is considered very high, and 80 or 90 points are the norm.

It's normal to meet some perverted defensive teams and score 60 or 70 points.

It can only be said that like money, the NBA's data is also in inflation.

At halftime, Li Liang asked Mike Brown to lay out the tactics for the whole team and arrange the strategy for the second half.

Li Liang listened from the sidelines.

Li Liang has to focus more on the game, and he can't be distracted and think about tactics again.

And Mike Brown pointed out the players on several defensive details.

First, Cousins probably won't get much playing time in the second half.

Of course, this is the first game, there is still room for adjustment, and Cousins still has a chance to show himself.

But judging by the situation in the first half, when Cousins was there, he was too easy to be beaten by the Warriors.

Curry, James, and Thompson can all attack Cousins.

And on the offensive end, Cousins has no advantage in the low post.

In the case of misalignment, Cousins is not sure to play anyone except Curry.

And to get Curry to dislocate to guard against Cousins, this tactical arrangement is too difficult.

The king did not have this need.

The Kings will increase West's playing time and solve problems at critical moments with five-on-five small.

After talking about defending, D'Antoni took a little more time to talk about attack.

But after talking for a while, Li Liang waved his hand and said: "No need, it's too complicated, in the second half, we will do a good job in defense, and on the offensive end, I will try my best to solve them." ”

Li Liang thought about it for a while, it was already very good to be able to play like this in the first half, and in the second half, it was time to exert force, it was time to exert force.
