Li Liang was as fierce as a tiger, and when he looked at the score, it was really opened.

This kind of stormy three-point attack, even if the opponent knows it, still can't really block it.

What's more, James is injured and sitting on the court, and the Cavaliers are leaderless, how can they compete with the Pacers?

In the end, Blatter had no choice but to call a timeout and make adjustments.

He asked James about the condition of his ankle, and James removed the ice pack, got up and moved, feeling fine.

James' physical fitness is also amazing, and he has basically not suffered any major injuries for so many years after entering the league.

He protects his body quite properly, and his style of play is not a health play, but very fierce.

A lot of people say that James' style of play won't work until he is 30 years old, and now that he is 31 years old, his performance on the court proves that he is still very good.

"No problem, let me play." James felt that there was nothing wrong with his ankle, it should not be some structural injury, it was just an ordinary bumble.

James is back on the court, and there is hope for the Cavaliers.

But how promising is that?

Li Liang proved with his performance that this hope is becoming infinitely smaller.

After the timeout, Li Liang returned to the court, put on the [Iron Body] again, and took out the golden shield.

After a wave of fierce attacks, Li Liang had to rely on defense to dispel the idea of the Cavaliers turning the tables.

After a timeout, the Cavaliers' first offense, James attacked with the ball in the low post on the right wing.

As a result, the card position was not stuck at all - because Li Liang used [Heinsohn's big smoking gun] to push James away and poke the ball down.

The Pacers counterattacked, and JR-Smith received the ball at 45 degrees on the right side and hit a quick three-point shot.

At this time, Smith is still very good at the work of rubbing salt on people's wounds.

The margin is already heading towards 20 points.

The difference in strength between the two sides is actually not so big.

But under the current rhythm of the NBA game, if you don't pay attention to it for a period of time, the situation changes abruptly, and the opponent will bombard with a series of three-point bombardments, and the point difference will go towards a huge gap.

In contrast, in the early years, the games with a defensive tone as the main tone will be played more anxiously when the strength is close.

Especially at that time, the proportion of three-point shots was not that large.

Of course, the game scene will be a little more ugly.

Li Liang just caught James sprained his ankle, and at the point in time of the break, the situation became sharp for the Cavaliers.

It can be said that at every point, Li Liang calculated very accurately.

This year's best coach in the league was given to Steve Cole, but Li Liang knew that Lao Tzu was the real best coach and a master of court control!

Of course, Li Liang wants more than just a victory in this game, he also wants to form a psychological effect on James: You really can't beat me.

Even if James's will is as hard as steel, he can't stand the hammer of a sledgehammer.

There are a lot of people in the league who have been disabled by James and have never been able to win, and now the nemesis has finally appeared.

In the second half of the third quarter, Li Liang and the entire Pacers team worked together to build a steely defense.

I can not score, and you don't want to score.

The Cavaliers can be said to be struggling desperately under the leadership of James, but it is useless, and the point difference is indeed too much.

By the time we entered the fourth quarter, the difference between the two sides had reached 22 points, and it was basically impossible to catch up with the time of the first quarter.

James was also helpless, he had gone all out in the third quarter, dragging his somewhat sore ankle on the court desperately.

However, he was one step behind, passive step by step, and there was still a chance to catch up in the third quarter, but he didn't expect to be seized by Li Liang to expand the difference.

Li Liang is indeed an opportunist, and the most amazing thing about him is that he can not only smell the opportunity on the court, but also seize this opportunity.

James believes that in the league for ten years, his ability to control the court has become more and more sophisticated, and he is really playing with other opponents, especially those who are not as good as the overall strength.

It can be seen from the number of sweeps in the first round of the playoffs that you have a big difference in strength, basically you can't steal a game, and you are accused to death.

And Li Liang is really uncontrollable, he can't control it at all, it's too difficult to control......

From the perspective of strength, James feels that Li Liang is inferior to Durant and Anthony, but his way of playing and intelligence, as well as his ability to seize opportunities (open plug-ins), are really desperately strong.

I feel that playing with him is always being calculated, and I will never be able to turn over.

At the start of the fourth quarter, the Pacers' second lineup came on.

Li Liang played the same as the Bulls in the previous round, playing the third quarter and continuing to play at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

This can be regarded as Bird's more unique way of using Li Liang.

The first half gives you time to rest, and when the second half is going to be good and the end is over, you give me a good time on the field.

After all, we don't have a big three, and you are the only one who sets the sea god needle.

As long as Li Liang is on the field, the knights basically can't make any big waves.

James tried to make a foul and try to knock Li Liang down.

But Li Liang would rather let it than foul easily, and then he will find it back on the offensive end.

The prop of [God's Left Hand] was taken out and used by Li Liang when needed, and James was taken by surprise.

When the gap between the two sides was still 20 points more than halfway through the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers finally gave up.

Because James is starting to limp a little on the court, his ankle may be a little unbearable.

Although there was no structural damage, it was a break after all, and the ankle had been used at such a high intensity, and when the time came, there was no problem to toss some problems, and the series was completely over.

So, after weighing it up, Blatter called a timeout and replaced James.

James was still a little agitated off the bench.

He was still angry about Blatter not listening to himself and not calling a timeout in the middle of the third quarter.

There were some minor arguments between the two off the court, and finally Tyronn Lue came out to mediate, and the two did not continue to argue.

This game is not over yet, the star and the head coach quarreled, which hurt the team's morale a lot.

You see, which team Li Liang is in, he never quarrels with the head coach.

The managers listen to him.

Blatter is just too disobedient, if you don't obey, what kind of coach do you do.

At the end of the timeout, James did not return to the court, and finally he went straight from the players' tunnel and drooped his head back to the locker room.

He scored 28 points, dished out seven assists, grabbed seven rebounds and had only two turnovers.

It should be said that it is a very stable and reliable performance.

It's a pity that Li Liang's performance is even better.

Before the fourth quarter was played, 39 points had already been cut.

There was still 1 point to reach 40 points, and Bird asked Li Liang if he could still play.

Li Liang asked: "If I don't fight, will you say that I am like you again?" ”

Bird shook his head, "I can get four doubles and don't want to play, you don't want to play with 40 points, the difference is bigger." ”

Gotcha, you're awesome, I can't compare, I'm not going to fight.

Li Liang saw that James was off the court and went back to the locker room, and he also yelled to go back to the locker room.

Mike Brown hurriedly dissuaded, saying that the game was not over, and he would be fined for going back to the locker room casually.

In the end, Li Liang survived the fourth quarter of the game, and the Pacers finally beat the Cleveland Cavaliers at home by 15 points.

Won the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals and took the lead with a big score of 1:0.

Everything is under the control of Gan Jiaotou.
