The Lakers did a lot of preparation before the game, such as Duncan's madness, Ginobili's European step, Parker's running to death, and Leonard's tough defense...... Blah bla

In the first quarter, it can be said that the Lakers were blown up by Dio!

Popovich dares to use people, and he dares to use people with power, he has a very clear idea, since he wants to use it, he trusts it, Dior's organizational ability has been very strong since he entered the league, and he has used this very well in the past two years to return Dior to the top.

"I'll go guard against Dior." Liu Ren didn't wait for D'Antoni to speak and took the initiative to take on this task, Gasol's defensive ability on the inside is still good, but he really can't prevent it on the outside.

D'Antoni nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you took the initiative to ask to defend the opponent's best player, which is very good." ”

"Hassan, you replace Paul, you will be on the inside to block the breakaway and ensure good rebounding! Wesley you play to defend the opposing pitcher, Kenta you defend the opposing point guard, and the opposing point guards are very strong. D'Antoni was a little greedy for the Spurs' point guard rotation, and he didn't know where D'Antoni had come from to dig up such a group of point guards, each with their own characteristics and full of confidence.

In the playoffs, D'Antoni had to start picking up the defense that he had thrown for an unknown number of years, especially against the Spurs, and he was more worried about losing again because of defensive problems, which was also a season in which he began to transform.

In the first quarter, Kobe Bryant didn't get the ball much, giving outsiders a feeling of being isolated by the rest of the Lakers, and giving the Spurs players more reason to believe that the Lakers' infighting was real.

In the second quarter, D'Antoni let Kobe rest first, and there was still the last place to play, Liu Ren is now going to play inside, and the one who is on the court must be an outside player, and the Lakers' outside players are about to make up two tables of mahjong, except for Liu Ren, Kobe, and Nash, all other players have to compete for playing time.

Nash usually plays about 16 minutes, but today Nash has played 6 minutes in the first quarter and will definitely not play in the second quarter, and everyone else is looking forward to the rest of the playing time.

D'Antoni is ready to bring on Bazemore, Wesley Johnson, Liu Ren, and Whiteside in the second quarter, and this lineup is quite good defensively.

However, this is a bit worse offensive, and D'Antoni still prefers to attack in his bones.

"Nick, you're on, with Liu and Hassan to protect the rebound, you just shoot!"

"Wait a minute, Byron, you let Nick defend Leonard?" Liu Ren was a little surprised, he defended Dior, Whiteside on the inside, Wesley Johnson defended the pitcher, and Bazemore defended the guard.

That is to say Jean Nick Young to guard small forward Leonard! With Nick Young's defensive defense Leonard, isn't the picture too beautiful!

"By the way, I forgot to say, Nick, when you defend, just be careful not to be cut into the interior and make fouls by Leonard, he can shoot if he likes."

Liu Ren values Leonard because he honed his offensive ability to become a first-line scorer in the 15-16 season after a few years, but now Leonard is just a defensive stalwart in the eyes of others. This is not only the arrangement of D'Antoni as a coach, but also the arrangement of almost all team coaches with Leonard.

Get back on the court and start the second quarter.

Dio continued to be fielded by Popovich, with Mills and Danny Green in the backcourt, Leonard and Split and Dio in the frontcourt.

The Spurs took the lead in the second quarter, Dio stood outside the three-point line in the top arc, and found that the defender had become a small forward, Dio became very excited, and was about to pass the ball, ignoring the small man in front of him to shoot three-pointers.

The sound of "snap" drove the exclamation of the audience, and a big white hand directly covered the front of the ball thrown by Dior! The ball was slapped forward by Liu Ren.

After Liu Ren landed, he pounced forward like a leopard and copied the ball, and after getting the ball, he dribbled the ball and went straight to the opponent's frontcourt.

The speed was too fast, and when Liu Ren ran into the opponent's three-point line, the Spurs returned to the defense before they passed the halfcourt.

Liu Ren's speed did not decrease, after stepping into the dotted coil in the free throw line, he stopped the ball, stepped forward with his right foot, exerted force on his shoulders and waist to the left back, stepped on the floor with both feet, and then jumped high, rotated 360 degrees in the air, and gently dunked the ball into the basket with both hands!

Liu Ren's defensive block counterattack made the fans who saw this scene directly stunned, and after the stunned, there were crazy boos.

Coming down from the basket, Liu Ren shrugged his shoulders and brought a large number of boos, and the exotic San Antonio also has a characteristic that the fans are excited, and they are the most loyal fans, and they naturally want to boo back when they see the opponent make a provocative move.

Liu Ren looked at Dior, who didn't seem to understand what was going on, and wondered if this guy didn't watch the video of the opponent's game? So confident? Jump shot directly on his own first block at guard this season? Or is it this level of bouncing, and without a little flinch?

Liu Ren didn't guess wrong, Dio really hasn't watched any of the Lakers' games and videos, and he hasn't even seen the Lakers' player profiles.

Liu Ren thought about it, it is normal for an arrogant person like Dior not to watch the opponent's videos and materials, and he thinks that he will kill the other party like this!

The Spurs continued to attack, and Liu Ren continued to defend Dio from beyond the three-point line.

Dior is still under Liu Ren's block just now and has not eased up, Liu Ren is such a beautiful counterattack, the big screen must have played back repeatedly, of course Dior saw Liu Ren's terrifying bounce and bounce speed when he directly burst out of the front cap from the spot.

However, Dior still has a little luck in it, he thinks that Liu Ren's block just now is lucky, it should be said that he thinks that all the goals he didn't score, all the balls that were guarded by the opponent were bad luck.

"Why don't you keep throwing the ball? By the way, you're scared of being covered? Just when Dio was still hesitating to get the ball, Liu Ren's fluttering words came into his ears.

"Patty, give me the ball!" The little remaining calmness of Dior was directly ignited by Liu Ren's words.

Mills was already ready to block with Leonard, but Dio, now as the core of the Spurs' interior playmaking, has become very different in the team, and Mills didn't want to offend him and immediately passed the ball.

Dio picked up the ball and shot from outside the three-point line again, although he was arrogant, but still a little cautious, this time he adjusted the angle of the shot and shot backwards.

With this kind of height backward jumper, Liu Ren jumped on the spot and couldn't block it.

This three-pointer hit!

"Oh." Liu Ren shook his head and frowned, but immediately had a mocking tone: "I didn't expect you to be so lucky." ”

Without waiting for Dior to react, Liu Ren ran to the front court and prepared to attack.

Today's first quarter Liu Ren's offense is all jump shots, which is completely different from Liu Ren's usual style of play, Gasol is too strong a threat on the inside, and the Spurs must be wrapped, otherwise Dio will be abused to the point of being unhuman, so Liu Ren gets a lot of easy shooting opportunities.

In order to cope with this, Popovich deliberately replaced Split, hoping to defend Gasol with height and strength.
