102:107, still a 5-point gap.

This time, Kerr called a timeout, and he felt that the team had some problems with Li Liang's defense.

Back on the bench, Kerr asked the players why Li Liang had to go to the three-man tie when he broke through the ball just now.

"If he chooses to rush to the basket, don't close the circle, it's not necessary, their outside firepower is also very strong, be careful enough."

The Warriors players drank water while listening to Kerr's instructions.

In fact, they themselves couldn't figure out why the attack just now was closed, and they felt that they were attracted to it.

That's right, Li Liang has already been paired with [Gravitational Wooden Fish].

Under the infiltration of Li Liang's [Dull Sutra], the effect of the gravitational wooden fish became more and more powerful, the duration became longer and longer, and the confusion of the defensive players became greater and greater.

This is Li Liang's magic weapon to become a [single core], indiscriminately attract the opponent's defense, and create the most comfortable offensive space for his teammates.

Of course, Li Liang needs to further improve his passing ability, and his mistakes are still a little bigger.

On the Pacers' bench, Bird didn't say much, he was thinking with his hands in his hands, and the task of setting up the defense was handed over to Vogel and Brown.

These two goods are you and me, as if they are talking about cross talk, and everyone didn't listen to it much.

The Oracle Arena is really noisy, broken and noisy.

Before entering the court, Bird pointed to Shambaut on the bench, but then asked him to sit down.

Bird came up with a better lineup in his head to deal with the Warriors' five, but in a split second, he decided not to.

He felt that he should keep a hand.

Maybe it's a bit early to think so, but Bird believes that this season's Pacers are qualified to see the Warriors as potential contenders for the Finals.

Fifteen years ago, Bird thought that this season could be a transitional season and that he would need to be more prepared for the next season.

By 15 years, as Li Liang's form gradually improved, the team's style of play gradually took shape, and Bird felt that he could not wait any longer.

He's been waiting too long.

This year is the best opportunity to get started.

With Li Liang here, the Eastern Pacers don't have to fear James anymore.

And the Warriors are a bit of a bulking this year, and it is necessary to keep a hand.

The timeout ends and the game resumes.

The two sides are still five small lineups.

The Warriors' cross-cutting coordination is still sharp, but the Pacers have stabilized their ground and carried the man-to-man defense to the end.

At this point, it depends on the player's one-on-one singles ability.

After Curry continued to use the screen, the left side cut into the basket, and the left hand suddenly threw a shot!

The throw was fast and left-handed, leaving defenders defenseless.

The ball flies to the basket, hits the board, and the ball goes in!

At 102:109, the Warriors once again held a seven-point advantage.

Subsequently, the two sides entered a phase of defensive stalemate.

The Pacers deliberately slowed down the pace of the game, preferring to run out of 24 seconds on offense rather than attack.

At the same time, all the players quickly retreated, George Hill stepped up to defend Curry in advance, and Li Liang was behind at any time.

Li Liang is the only point on the Pacers court to assist in defense, and his timing and positioning are well controlled, not giving Curry a chance to assist Green.

The Warriors didn't adapt to the Pacers' defensive style for a while, and both offenses stalled and didn't hit.

Before the game, Brown and Vogel had carefully analyzed the Warriors' five-small lineup, and they believed that Green was the "eye" of the five.

He's not the strongest point, not the most important point, but the one that can change the situation.

The Warriors' current performance this season is inseparable from Green's role.

And because of this, Green is also the most vulnerable point.

Li Liang's natural restraint on Green allows him to contribute more energy on the defensive end.

The Pacers seized the opportunity on the counterattack and gave the ball to JR Smith on the wing, and Smith received the ball and hit a three-point shot!

Smith's three-pointer tonight was very reliable, 105-109, with three minutes to go.

The Warriors' offense ran into a bit of trouble, and Hill continued to play close to high-intensity defense and was whistled for a foul by the referee.

But Hill still had to continue this defensive strategy, and at this time the ball was in the hands of Iguodala, who burst through the basket from the baseline and won a one-handed dunk that turned over!

105:111。

The Warriors finally broke a two-minute scoring drought.

The Pacers, on the other hand, immediately gave up the rhythmic style of play, and now time is the enemy.

With a quick serve in the backcourt, Li Liang received the ball and broke through head-on, which attracted the three of them together.

The ball is given to the bottom left corner, or JR Smith, who catches the ball for three points and hits again!

108:111, only three points away!

Although the number of goals is the same, three points is one more point than two points!

Cole is confused, so why don't you just wrap it up? Why don't you listen?

The Warriors players are also buzzing in their heads, what's going on

Why did three people wrap it up and leak the bottom corner.

There was a slight altercation between Green and Iguodala.

It was this goal that made a subtle change in the situation on the field.

Defense and offense also need coherence, once the continuous defense is successful, a short time to understand the opponent's offensive feeling, can turn passive into active in defense, to give the opponent a great defensive blow.

The Warriors are a team with strong defensive initiative, steals, counterattacks, and three-point sets, and many teams can't hold on.

As a result, there were some problems with Li Liang's defense.

At the same time, facing the Pacers' defense, the Warriors have not found a good solution for the time being.

It still depends on the individual ability of the players, and after Thompson covered, he received the ball from the outside and made a three-point shot, but he didn't hit.

Thompson didn't hit a three-pointer in the fourth quarter.

Li Liang grabbed the backcourt rebound, which was the fifteenth rebound he grabbed in the game.

He really guarded the Pacers' basket like a center.

With just over 1 minute left in the game, the Pacers trailed by three points.

Bird did not call a timeout, he handed over the command of the field to Li Liang.

Li Liang controlled the ball himself for half the court, and now the Warriors players are highly nervous, don't be in the bag, don't be in the bag.

The person who defended Li Liang has become Iguodala, and in general, Li Liang is facing the top defense.

But his shooting ability at this time is also top-notch.

Iguodala was obviously afraid that Li Liang would suddenly make a three-point shot, so he got a little closer.

Li Liang saw this opportunity, and when there were 7 seconds left in the 24-second attack time, he suddenly accelerated to break through from the middle!

This time, no one came up to wrap the trap, and Li Liang directly hit the three-second zone, and a fake action of a pull-up jump shot shook Iguodala up.

This time he didn't lean up to touch the porcelain, but jumped back normally, made a jump shot from close range, and scored two points on the board!

Moreover, Iguodala also reached out and hit him on the arm, was whistled for a foul, and sent Li Liang to the free throw line.

Li Liang's true and false, false and true, made the Warriors' defenders not know what to do.

This is clearly not the normal level of Iguodala's defense.

The Pacers' bench was all jumping for joy.

Li Liang hit a free throw and it was tied!

After scoring the goal, Li Liangxin said "Amitabha", which is all the credit of Muyu.

"Ah, no, how am I Amitabha, I'm not a monk, it's dangerous."

Kerr called a timeout, and the situation turned bad for the Warriors.

Their biggest problem right now is that the Pacers are suddenly using defense, and they can't get used to it.

They need a good tactical design to break down the Pacers' current defense.

However, there is theoretically no tactical routine to crack this kind of man-to-man defense.

It's people who crack people's markings, not some kind of tactic.

Therefore, man-to-man is the simplest, but most complete defensive routine.

The upper limit is very high, and the lower limit is also low, depending on your staffing and the quality of your training.

From this point of view, the staffing of the Pacers is no problem, not to mention the training, Vogel, who was born in Kentucky, has long been imprinted into the blood of the Pacers.

Of course, the biggest weakness of man-to-man is that defense is always passive on the basketball court, and one-on-one can never kill the opponent, especially in the NBA, for some superstars, the difference between one-on-one single defense and empty space is not very big.

For example, for Lao Ke, if you don't defend yourself, it's the same as the five people's air defense, and he dares to vote.

Therefore, Li Liang needs to stand up, make judgments when necessary, and support others.

If the Warriors have a strong offensive point on the interior that can eat Li Liang and cause others to come to support Li Liang as well, then the Pacers' so-called man-to-man will no longer exist and become another form of defense.

But the problem is that it is Green who is opposite Li Liang.

That's it?

Just you?

24 hours a day, 365 days a year, every minute can get you.

Green, who had previously performed in various all-around performances in the game, only scored a pitiful 4 points tonight, plus 4 rebounds and 2 assists, and his role was basically negligible except for a few times when he yelled on the court.

Then he was hammered by Li Liang on the inside and was picked up three frontcourt rebounds.

To be honest, Li Liang's rebounding level is so-so, but Green really can't control Li Liang.

The Warriors came back from a timeout, but still couldn't find a way to deal with the Pacers' defense.

It still depends on Curry's personal ability, strong Hill in the middle, and then faces Li Liang and Hill to defend together, throwing shots.

The ball bounced around the basket a few times, but it didn't go in.

Li Liang helped a lot in [Russell's three-second zone fear] under the basket.

turned around, Li Liang also grabbed the rebound, and Green still wanted to make up the basket, but the ball was squeezed away before he could touch it.

The initiative is in the hands of the Pacers.

Bird didn't call a timeout, at this time the two sides were divided, the Pacers took the initiative, and calling a timeout was an opportunity for the Warriors to set up defense.

Bird is very sober, of course, it may be because he is lazy, or pretending, anyway, it is left to the players to solve the problem.

Li Liang looked at the time, there were 40 seconds left, and he wanted to grab one, so that even if the Warriors used up 24 seconds in the next round, the Pacers still had an offensive opportunity.

He chose to face Iguodala directly on the outside and forced a three-point shot!

But the ball was interfered with by Iguodala, and the force was small, and it hit the front of the basket and missed.

Under the basket, Granger, JR Smith and Finson all scrambled for frontcourt rebounds.

Finson was the first in a crowd to dial the ball and dialed it out!

Then it went to Curry's hand......

it! It's better if you don't dial!

As a result, Curry quickly hit the basket with the ball, Li Liang chased after him, and Curry slowed down, wanting to play a time difference.

Li Liang won't give you this opportunity, [Death Entanglement] shot!

Li Liang wrapped Curry in the back half, and then snatched the ball from Curry's arms!

Twice [Death Coil], the timing is just right!

A fatal steal, but the two sides were evenly divided.

At this point, there were still 22 seconds left until the end of the race.

Li Liang wants to consume the last 22 seconds.

Time is going by little by little, and it is the outside showdown between Iguodala and Li Liang again, and everyone is pulling away.

In fact, this kind of one-on-one singles is not Li Liang's strong point, but who else can there be besides him? Finson?

With the last 5 seconds left, Li Liang knew he was going to act.

An eerie smile began to appear on his face, it was the laughter of death from an alien planet!

Li Liang broke through, stopped urgently, took a step inside the three-point line, resisted Iguodala's defense, and made a jumper shot!

Iguodala had defended to the extreme, but Li Liang still managed to throw the ball.

Then, at the moment when the lights come on, the ball goes in.

There was no respite for the Warriors.

At 113:111, the Pacers picked off the Warriors away.

Li Liang succeeded in the lore, scoring exactly 40 points.

After the goal was successful, Li Liang blew his fingers and felt a little hot.
