Chapter 721: 40 points

Iguodala played earlier than usual, because if he didn't play again, Li Liang's score in the first quarter of the game would have broken 20 points.

Compared to Barnes and Green, Iguodala is superior in all aspects such as defensive experience and physical fitness.

And Iguodala is an outside defensive method, and to deal with Li Liang's offense, he still has to be treated with the attitude of the third small forward.

The Warriors served the baseline ball, a tactical deception, Thompson found an open space on the left side, received a pass from Green, and hit a direct three-point shot!

The Warriors' tactics are indeed rich and tacit, thinking that they want to run and cut, everyone's attention is on Curry, who knows that Thompson has been missed.

Li Liang shook his head and shouted, "Keep an eye on each of your counterparts, keep an eye on it!" ”

In the Eastern Conference series, the defense basically doesn't use command, and it is definitely not good to deal with the Warriors.

On the offensive end, Iguodala stared at Li Liang one-on-one, Li Liang covered on the left side and received Hill's pass, and missed a jump shot after a feint breakout.

Iguodala was very close to him, and at the same time, the defensive coverage was very good, and he did enough interference at the moment when Li Liang shot.

This was the first ball Li Liang conceded in the game, but McGee on the inside hit the rebound and gave it to Hill on the outside.

Hill catches the ball and shoots a three-point shot from the front and hits!

It was an extremely important goal.

More than five minutes into the first quarter, the rest of the Pacers were finally able to shoot three-pointers.

At 25:16, the margin remained at 9 points.

The Pacers relied on Li Liang's offensive performance against the sky and scored 25 points in the middle of the first quarter.

Now it seems that the form of the rest of the Pacers players is slowly recovering, and the more they play, the better they get.

Warriors fans really have to worry about their team's performance.

Then, the Warriors made another mistake on offense, and Green's pass to Iguodala was too big and flew straight off the sideline.

Iguodala's chance actually flew out well, with a big space in the bottom left corner.

However, Li Liang's choice of defensive position made Green's passing line deviate, and the ball speed was too fast, resulting in a mistake.

Li Liang looked up at the time, there were still more than 4 minutes before the end of the first quarter.

He decided to take advantage of the Warriors' poor form in the first quarter and find a way to give them another shot.

Li Liang's style of play is like this, using his firepower advantage to chase and beat his opponent fiercely, and achieve a sufficient amount of lead in a short period of time, so that the opponent will fall into the quagmire of chasing points, and then return to the whole to consume the opponent to death.

Of course, many teams and stars will adopt this strategy, such as the Warriors themselves.

It's just that the Warriors rely on the overall offense and chasing three points, and Li Liang relies on personal ability (plug-in) and timing.

And his relentless pursuit is really, really fierce.

Warriors turnover, Pacers possession.

Li Liang held the ball across the halfcourt, and Iguodala did not leave an inch.

At this time, McGee came over to block the demolition, and Li Liang paused in the high position with a simple change of direction.

Iguodala is judging whether Li Liang wants to shoot or break through, who knows that Li Liang passed the ball!

[One shot into the soul!] 】

The ball spun through Bogut's crotch and into McGee's hands.

McGee catches the ball, doesn't have to dribble, step under the basket in one step, and smash it with one hand!

The ball was really accurate and dangerous.

It's accurate, because McGee doesn't have to make any adjustments after receiving the ball and attacks the basket directly.

It's dangerous, because as long as it deviates a little bit, the angle is wrong, and Bogut's balls will burst.

Bogut broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't know if it was lucky or unlucky.

Li Liang's TM began to pass, which really made Cole's head big.

At 27:16, the score difference continued to widen.

Cole pouted and stood on the sidelines, thinking to himself that the first quarter was almost over, let's get through the first quarter, and it would be OK to get through the first quarter.

The first quarter of the first finals was indeed a bit difficult.

But the first quarter really didn't end, Green made another mistake in the high pass!

He Curry ran back, and Green wanted to make a penetrating pass directly to the basket.

As a result, Hill didn't follow this time, and he rushed up directly to pounce on Green with Li Liang.

Green was blocked by a volleyball, and his pass was blocked.

Hill grabbed the ball, held the ball himself and quickly counterattacked, forcing a left-handed layup under the basket.

At 29:16, the 13-point deficit was over, and Kerr called a short timeout.

The offensive end made consecutive mistakes and was quickly counterattacked by the opponent, and the Warriors fell into a vicious circle of impatience, being beaten and counterattacking, being more impatient, and being counterattacked.

Cole had to stop the cycle.

Under the leadership of Li Liang, the Pacers players are obviously more daring to play, and they are more resolute and resolute in both offense and defense, and the effect is also very obvious.

Kerr replaced Thompson with Livingston and Bogut with Azeli.

Cole's heart is also not small, and in this situation, he still insists on normal personnel rotation to let the main team get enough rest.

But the question is, do you really think you can survive this wave?

Li Liang's thoughts are similar to Cole's, and I can also let your main force get enough rest, but the methods are different.

After the timeout, the Warriors' offense stalled a bit, and finally Iguodala forced to the interior and scored two points with a step-back jumper to break the scoring drought.

29:18, still 11 minutes.

Then, Li Liang caused another foul on Iguodala on the offensive end, and after he used a shooting feint to deceive Iguodala, he rubbed against Iguodala and successfully deceived the free throw.

Free throws are really a good thing, adjusting the rhythm, charging, killing, and at the same time not delaying the score, it is really a must-have distraction artifact at home.

With both free throws, Iguodala's difficult back-up was a wasted throw.

For the Warriors, worse is yet to come.

On the Pacers' side, Kevin Garnett stepped in, replacing McGee.

As soon as he got on the court, he immediately pressed Green down on the defensive end.

Green's breakthrough layup was really a complete failure, and if no one gave him space, he rushed under the basket to face the defender, and he could only throw the ball to the basket casually, and this throw didn't even touch the basket.

Garnett turned around again to collect the rebound, and the Pacers quickly counterattacked.

Li Liang held the ball in the middle to attract the defense and distributed the ball to Granger in the bottom corner.

Granger burst into the basket with the ball, attracted the bag and then gave it to JR Smith in the bottom left corner, and Smith received the ball and made a three-point shot.

Hit!

In the first quarter, the Pacers hit their sixth three-pointer.

And the Warriors only scored a three-pointer, which is a three-point team Warriors, and under the Pacers' man-to-man defense, they didn't play their three-point advantage at all.

At 34:18, the difference came to 16 points.

No one thought that at the beginning of the first quarter of the first game of the Finals, the Pacers really pressed the Warriors to the ground and rubbed them.

Curry then dribbled in succession in the front, took a three-point shot straight after the cover, and missed.

Li Liang got the backcourt rebound, and he knew that the opportunity had come.

High double screen, Li Liang passed the ball to JR Smith, and then used the cover to go around to the right side 45 degrees.

Smith gave the ball to Garnett in the high position, and Garnett understood it and immediately distributed the ball to Li Liang on the right side.

Garnett first made a solid cover for Li Liang, and then received the ball and immediately distributed the ball.

Li Liang received a pass, Iguodala was thrown out of position, and Li Liang made a quick three-point shot......

The ball sliced through the air of the Oracle arena like a knife and stabbed into the very center of the hoop!

Fifth three-pointer!

Li Liang hit five three-pointers in the first quarter, and the score became 37:18, and the difference went straight to 20 points!

Warriors fans are stunned, is this still hairy?

Is this still the Grand Final?

Then, Aizeli made a foul under the basket, went to the free throw line, and hit one of two free throws, 37-19.

It's the Pacers' turn to attack again, and now as soon as Li Liang gets the ball, everyone is scared.

The Warriors are finally starting to pack, Iguodala and Green are on together, and the others don't care for the time being!

As a result, the ball passed through Li Liang's hand, and then made a hand-to-hand cover with JR Smith, JR Smith received the ball, dribbled back a step, and made a direct three-point shot at 45 degrees on the left side!

Li Liang brought enough confidence to Smith, whatever, vote for him.

"Huh!"

Pacers made their eighth three-pointer of the first quarter.

The court was bleak, and the Pacers scored 40 points in a single quarter.
