At the post-game press conference, the atmosphere on the Warriors' side was quite solemn.

Steve Kerr and Curry were interviewed by reporters, and everyone else hid in the locker room and didn't come out.

The Warriors suffered a painful loss in the first game, allowing Li Liang to score 55 points in Oracle.

55 points is already very scary, but what is even more terrifying is that this is just the second highest score Li Liang got in the finals.

Kerr was asked by reporters how he would evaluate Bruce Lee's performance, and Kerr was silent for a long time.

Then he scratched his face before squeezing out one word, "Amazing".

It's really shocking, and to be honest, Kerr felt unbelievable about Li Liang's performance in the first quarter and the fourth quarter.

Especially in the fourth quarter, it has been three quarters, and Li Liang's consumption in the first three quarters is really a lot, why is the fourth quarter suddenly alive again?

Even if it is a physical monster like Kobe, it is impossible to say that the physical fitness of the fourth quarter is not affected, and it is still as efficient as the first quarter.

Generally speaking, many players exert strength in the fourth quarter because they retain their strength in the first three quarters, allowing themselves to run at a constant speed and sprint to the fourth quarter.

For example, Jordan is like this, Kerr is most familiar with it, team players in the first three quarters, various running tactics, and then became the singles king in the fourth quarter.

The Pacers' offense in the first three quarters, to be honest, was supported by Li Liang alone, and there was no team running tactic.

Without his hot three-point shot, his non-stop breakaways, shot-sharing, and high-post blocking and pick-and-roll strategies, the Pacers' offense would have collapsed.

With such consumption, he was able to play a continuous breakthrough performance in the fourth quarter, and looking at his shots, it was obvious that he was full of physical strength.

It's just horrible, it's shocking. (82 years of Gatorade's credit)

When Shambaugh missed a three-pointer in the fourth quarter, Kerr even sensed the hope that the situation could be reversed.

Because the walker's physical strength can't keep up, the result is ......

After saying "Amazing", Kerr was silent for a short while, and then said: "Bruce Lee broke through our defense, we had expected him to do well before the game started, but we were not well prepared. 55 points, it's really amazing, maybe I can't score that many points in a series. ”

Kerr didn't forget to laugh at himself, and the reporters below laughed, indeed with Cole's level as a player, it is normal to score 55 points in the Finals series.

Cole laughed himself, and he pursed his lips and shook his head, indicating that he didn't know what to say.

The reporters' questions were thrown at Curry again, and Curry's face was equally unsightly.

Curry scored 25 points tonight, which was already the highest score on the team, but this performance was simply overshadowed in front of Li Liang.

didn't even get half of Li Liang's score.

For Li Liang's strong scoring explosiveness, Curry himself felt puzzled.

"Bruce Lee in the regular season and the finals are indeed two people...... But I still want to talk more about ourselves, and I think we should forget about the first game as soon as possible and focus on the next game, and I think the opportunity is still on our side. ”

The topic of reporters has always been inseparable from Li Liang, and Curry is a little impatient and tries to change the topic to the Warriors.

Although he knew in his heart that as the MVP of the season, his first game was a complete defeat.

Three points at the whistle from a long distance, three points at the LOGO, consecutive points under the basket, blocks, rebounds, and help defense in defense.

Li Liang really looks like a superman tonight, showing people what a real MVP is.

And he plays so relaxed on the court, no matter how much the Warriors strengthen his defense, Li Liang can always defuse it with weight.

Li Liang held the ball for so long in the whole game, so many shots, so many passes, he only made 3 mistakes.

You let Harden play a game of this intensity, and he didn't have more than three turnovers in a quarter.

On the other hand, the post-game interview on the Pacers' side is a different style of painting.

Larry Bird and Li Liang attended the post-game press conference together, and that scene was the finale of Deyun Club's box sealing.

A reporter asked Bird, "Bruce Lee's play tonight is beyond his level in the regular season and playoffs, is he hiding his strength before?" ”

Bird scratched his nose and glanced at Li Liang beside him, he hadn't spoken yet, because this question was really a bit of a two-handed question.

Li Liang spoke first and said, "No, in fact, tonight's game is Larry playing in my jersey, and I am the coach on the sidelines. ”

The audience laughed, and Bird just sneered, I don't know if I'm playing on the court, you must have been a coach on the sidelines.

"I set up and devised a lot of tactics for tonight's game, but unfortunately I didn't use them in the end." When everyone stopped laughing, Bird began his performance, "I think Bruce Lee is a good player, but I think he is still lacking in the understanding of the word 'team'. ”

Li Liang immediately retorted, "I think that the best team is to give the ball to the best players. ”

The audience was laughing again, and the reporter didn't need to ask questions, just watch the two talk cross talk on stage.

Bird glanced at Li Liang again and said, "Then why didn't they give me all the balls before?" ”

Li Liang said: "Because, 8, 55, 8, 55." ”

I don't know why, it's these two magic numbers again.

As soon as he said this, Bird couldn't help laughing, this garbage poked people's weakness again.

In this joyful and peaceful atmosphere, the Pacers' post-game press conference came to an end.

After the first game, the situation was pretty good for the Pacers.

They have already had home-court advantage, and the Warriors have paid the price for their youth.

They are indeed strong and have great potential, but on the stage of the finals, Li Liang is indeed the strongest.

I've saved up a season's props, can I not be strong?

There are a lot of killer features that are useless, and they are all reserved for the finals.

If you want to blame, you can only blame it, the team in the east is not strong enough, and they haven't consumed too much of Li Liang's inventory.

Of course, it will not be so easy to win the first game, but the second game.

Before the start of the second game, many media predicted that the Golden State Warriors would rebound in the second game.

The two sides are likely to go to Indiana with a big score of 1:1 for a crucial third battle.

Indeed, in response to the problems that arose in the first game, the Warriors and Kerr will definitely make adjustments and see the moves.

In the case that the overall strength gap between the two sides is not large, and the Warriors even have the advantage, everyone does have the prerequisites for being optimistic about the Warriors.

After a two-day break on June 5 and June 6, the second game between the two sides continued at the Oracle Arena.

In the first game, the final score between the two sides was 119:105, the Warriors were at home, and the finals were bombarded by the opponent by nearly 120 points in a single game.

In Game 2, the Warriors won't make the same mistake again.

On the night of the game, the Warriors' starting lineup was unchanged from the previous game, but the offensive and defensive alignments were different from the previous game.

Kerr made a decision to no longer let Green defend Li Liang, and his defense was simply given for nothing.

The burden of defending Li Liang was handed over to Klay Thompson.

Although Thompson is 2.01 meters tall and is a swing forward, his strength and size are enough to deal with most frontline players, and even defending some interior players is not a problem.

Li Liang wants to score so many points tonight, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.

But for Li Liang, scoring is not the ultimate goal, winning is.
