Chapter 209: PY Trading
Back on the court, Li Liang really wants to meet them - especially James.
Because Spo made an adjustment, let James suppress Li Liang at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.
After the first shot after the timeout, James dribbled and Bosh made a block, and then replaced Li Liang.
Outside the three-point line, he wants to eat Li Liang one-on-one.
The pressure on Li Liang has skyrocketed, and this is probably the strongest striker in NBA history.
Sure enough, James started after closing the distance, one step stronger than Li Liang, pressed Li Liang to the inside, and made an easy layup with his left hand.
This ball Li Liang was pressed into a porcelain solid, and there was no chance at all.
After the goal, James yelled at the audience, which was the first time in the game that James scored with the ball in a positional battle.
It's been more than 6 minutes since the first quarter.
The male lion had just opened his eyes and let out his first roar.
Li Liang's outside defense is okay against Lillard, Irving and even Harden, and the height advantage is there.
But it's not good with Anthony and James.
A real top small forward, not so easy to defend.
At the moment when James scored, subtitles popped up in front of Li Liang's eyes:
[Task, "James Terminator", mission requirements: This game will suppress LeBron James's score by no more than 30 points, task rewards: a number of defensive runes, a number of rune upgrade fragments, and a skill. 】
As soon as he saw that there were skills, Li Liang's eyes lit up! It's a good task.
The requirements of the mission are also concise and clear, allowing James to score no more than 30.
It may seem simple, but it's James.
Li Liang felt that as long as he wanted to, James could score points at any time.
Li Liang wore James's sneakers before signing under armour, and was deeply touched by his strength.
In 07, Li Liang was still in high school, and James had already led the team to the finals.
That year, the East Finals played against Detroit, with a score of 0:2 and four consecutive games, and Tianwang Mountain scored 25 points in a single quarter.
The various controversies after that will not be repeated, not to mention these, his strength is really strong.
His strength is not quite the same as Kobe's.
Kobe Bryant is sharp-edged, and at a glance, he knows that he is a peerless knife, the kind of hammer that makes immediate decisions.
James, on the other hand, has no edge on the sword, and has been creating opportunities for his teammates at other times unless he has a fast-break opportunity at the beginning of the first quarter.
His passes are fast and accurate, rarely passing those meaningless balls, and each ball can lead the opponent and his teammates.
When a teammate can't, a driving layup proves that he wants to score points and no one can stop him.
That's the sheer quality, and after winning the championship last year, James has completed his sublimation.
Li Liang is a fledgling hairy man who wants to stop him from scoring 30 points?
He has only two options, the first, undercover!
Let the Lakers trail by 20 points at halftime, and enter garbage time in the second half, James plays casually, and it is estimated that the score will not exceed 30.
The second way, of course, is to resist hard, suppress James, and try to win the game.
With Li Liang's character, of course he wanted to... Let's choose the second option.
Although it is said that if you lose a regular season, you will lose, after all, the battle for the top spot in the East and West still needs face.
Besides, just after the pause, he said to Kobe Bryant, "Boss, I'll meet them." ”
You're going undercover after the meeting?
You can't be like that.
Li Liang cheered up and silently recited the Prajnaparamita Sutra in his heart.
I wonder if this thing can be used?
James has always been determined, and he wants to interfere with him with the dull scriptures, for fear that he will not steal chickens and rice.
Gary Payton's chewing gum Li Liang also brought it, but he didn't really want to use it.
After all, there are only five pieces, and if there is a regular season, the two sides have no grievances before, and they rush up to trash talk to people for some reason, doesn't it look like a harpy?
I'd better save it for the playoffs and use it when it's hot.
Li Liang was pondering that Nash had finally scored.
He forced Chalmers with the ball on the outside, turned around and feinted to shake Chalmers away, and then hit a difficult mounted archery shot.
13:13 flat.
The Heat still have James in possession of the ball, and it is Ci Shiping who defends James.
James didn't seem to want to attack again after forcing a goal, and dispatched defense on the court.
He handed the ball to Bosh, who made a hand-to-hand pass in the high post and Chalmers took the ball and went inside.
With Gasol's defense, Chalmers scored a layup with a high board.
Then, Nash drew a foul on Chalmers, and the Lakers served a sideline ball.
Li Liang received the ball in a high position, and the person who defended Li Liang became James.
To be honest, Li Liangce was even more afraid of Bosh if he responded, because Bosh's neck was long and blocked his vision.
Although James is strong in defense, James is strong in single defense marking, Li Liang can't attack with the ball at all, and you can't use it in single defense.
Kobe Bryant on the wing suddenly ran into the inside line, Li Lianghang passed in, Kobe received the ball and stepped into the basket, and won the one-handed dunk!
Kobe Bryant finally scored!
After the goal, James and Wade had a little argument.
Obviously there was something wrong with the defensive communication of the ball.
The Heat's high-intensity, high-pressing, pick-and-roll defensive strategy at the start of the first quarter is slowly disintegrating.
Any kind of high-intensity defensive strategy will be difficult to survive half the quarter.
Spo wanted to use this kind of defense to dominate the opening game.
But the Lakers relied on Li Liang's excellent play to survive.
The Lakers are now slowly relieving themselves, and the real horse-to-horse, car-to-car, on both sides are fighting against each other.
……
At the end of the first quarter, Li Liang and Kobe Bryant went to rest.
With Howard and Jordan Hill missing on the inside, the Lakers are struggling with rotation.
Both men played the full first quarter, and the two sides were tied at 26-26.
Li Liang scored 9 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block.
James had 11 points, three rebounds and two assists.
Li Liang was lucky and had done his best, while James made a small effort in the second half of the first quarter.
He originally had a chance to dunk under the basket, but was destroyed by Li Liang with a foul and hit one of two free throws.
In comparison, Kobe Bryant was a bit embarrassed, scoring 2 points in the first quarter, relying on Li Liang's assist.
He shot 1-of-5 in the entire quarter and played without aggression.
On the defensive end, he was tackled twice by Wade and played with his feet once, which was not up to the Lakers fans who watched Stamps.
During the interval, Li Liang sat next to Kobe Bryant and recited scriptures to him.
Of course, it's not a dull sutra, and it's bad to recite a dull sutra.
"Boss, what are you fighting? Are you ashamed? I was robbed, I was over, and I almost got a hat. That's how you play? Are you worthy of those Chinese fans who watched the game at noon and couldn't eat lunch at the end of the day after watching you play like this? ”
Kobe Bryant wiped his sweat with a towel and said, "I'm adjusting, I'm adjusting, my hand doesn't feel very good." ”
"Feel the hand, don't talk about the feel, do you start from defense? If you can't attack, you can defend well, wasn't it like this before? What's going on now, do you have to wait if it doesn't feel good? “
Although Li Liang's words were ugly, they made sense, and Kobe Bryant had to listen to them.
Defense doesn't deceive you, offense depends on feel, defense is about attitude.
Of course, Kobe Bryant attached great importance to this game, but it may have been taken too seriously, resulting in the state not being opened.
In addition, James and Wade are indeed in the prime of life, and the two of them worked together to make Kobe a little confused.
Li Liang saw that Kobe Bryant didn't speak, and said, "Am I right?" We should do a good job of defending first, so that when I deal with James later, you have to help me. You defend Wade, I will also help you, we echo each other, help each other, how about it? ”
Li Liang "wants to see the poor dagger", this kid originally thought about this hand.
Let Kobe help him defend against James, with Kobe's help, wouldn't the success rate of suppressing James be much higher?
Kobe pouted and thought about it, it did make sense, he didn't speak, just nodded slightly.
Li Liang knew that Kobe Bryant was taking it to heart, and he was not the kind of player who would say "OK, OK, let's do this, kill them".
But when he has an idea, he will silently keep it in his heart and respond when needed.
The two ignored Mike Brown as a head coach and made a defensive PY trade with a defensive coach.
That's it, work together to prevent James!
