487. Counterattack

"Damn!"

"Is this a human?"

“……”

“……”

Although it has been seen many times, fans still feel shocked, although the Warriors' two bench interior lines are notoriously defensive soft-fledged and sadistic demons, but they are still two big men!

Every time Liu Ren eats his opponent alive, he is the same as when O'Neal and James were born, and every time he sees it, he feels amazing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Warriors fans see Liu Ren's way of playing, which is completely what Randle on their side should do! But now Liu Ren, such a small forward, actually did it, and he was even more brutal than Randle.

Randall doesn't have the kind of bouncing that he can jump up and hit the basket!

Spez, who was very powerful when he was abusing the weak team, was completely stupid, and then the Warriors attacked his mid-range open shot, and he almost missed three shots!

The Lakers took advantage of the momentum brought up by Liu Ren and quickly counterattacked.

Not to mention anything else, Speights is really good at speed, and he was the first to return to the defense after not throwing.

Then Liu Ren, Jeremy Lin, and Antetokounmpo counterattacked three against one!

Liu Ren held the ball and accelerated to the inside, as if he didn't see Speights, and once again filled the frame with Speights' hands.

Without Bogut, the Warriors' only interior defensive gate, Liu Ren is on the inside of the Warriors.

Liu Ren came up like a beast, one after another violent buckles, and the Lakers' originally somewhat sluggish morale suddenly rose.

At this time, the Warriors' offense was problematic, and their rotation lineup relied on Iguodala's organizational ability to play with the offense, but the Lakers' morale was up, and the defense was very focused, even Kobe Bryant and Jeremy Lin, who were known as dragging, firmly guarded the two shooters Barnes and Livingston.

Iguodala was defended to death by Liu Ren, he was not a player with great singles ability, and he had no chance to pass under the defense.

Most of the outside playmakers rely on breaking through the ball or sucking the bag to organize the offense, even if Rondo, who has a clumsy scoring ability, has an excellent ability to break through to the basket.

And Iguodala really played dead in the regular season, except for passing and defending, all other skills seemed to disappear.

Iguodala dribbled for a long time, and then passed to Livingston, Livingston saw that Speights on the inside had lost his soul, Aizeli couldn't do anything but grab rebounds and empty catches, Barnes was entangled by Kobe Bryant with brute force, so Livingston chose to defend Jeremy Lin for three points!

"Bang"

The ball smashed to the front of the basket and bounced in the direction of Liu Ren, who grabbed the ball and directly advanced the counterattack.

Liu Ren, who was counterattacking with the ball, was really like a tank at this time, and the speed and strength of the impact were extremely fierce.

Barnes gritted his teeth and straightened his body to come over and delay Liu Ren, but was directly knocked away by Liu Ren, and because Barnes did not hit Liu Ren head-on, he was almost blown foul!

Seeing Liu Ren directly knock into Barnes, the strongest of their outside players, Livingston didn't dare to come over at all, he was almost out of luck when he was hit by Liu Ren just now, and now he saw Liu Ren shrinking his hands.

Iguodala didn't catch up either, he was blocked by Antetokounmpo who cooperated with Liu Ren's fast attack, and at this critical moment, it was the Warriors' big center Aizeli who caught up with Liu Ren from behind!

Although Aizeli's offensive ability is very good only for dunking, and his defense is not good because of his thinness, his running speed is also real, and he actually chased after him from behind with Barnes's rope life.

After Liu Ren entered the Warriors' three-second zone, he slammed forward and flew up, Aizeli's bounce was really good, and the speed of the bullet was also very good, and he blocked Liu Ren, Liu Ren's right hand was replaced by a left-handed pick-up shot, and he easily scored two points.

Tie!

35 flat!

The Lakers quickly tied the score after the start of the second quarter!

Steve Kerr has warmed up Randle, Curry and others when the Lakers were gaining momentum before.

However, he didn't call a timeout at the first time, after all, the main team has been playing for a long time in the first quarter, and he still expects the second team to last for a while, but he didn't expect to be tied in three or two clicks!

The Warriors called a timeout.

Steve Kerr started making substitutions, with Curry, Iguodala, Barnes, Randle, and Azeli coming on.

If it weren't for the terrible physical fitness of the Australian bear, Bogut could only play more than 20 minutes a game, and he would have to save it for the critical moment, Cole really wanted to replace Bogut as well.

The Lakers were so bad that they actually used the main force to play them off the bench, and Steve Kerr said he was very unhappy.

D'Antoni was also very thief-eyed, and when he saw that Steve Cole was replaced, he immediately replaced Gasol, Whiteside, and Clarkson with quick hands and feet.

The Lakers lineup became Clarkson, Liu Ren, Antetokounmpo, Gasol, and Whiteside.

The Warriors sideline, Steve Kerr's purpose in switching to this small lineup is to stabilize the situation and suppress the fast pace that is now driven by Liu Ren.

But I didn't expect D'Antoni to suddenly change to a super big lineup, replaced by four frontcourt players, and it was the kind that was super mobile.

The Warriors, on their side, played a tactic specifically for Randle, through continuous cover and movement.

Randle dodged Gasol at once, and stuck Antetokounmpo in the left waist position, Randle has a position, and behind him is Antetokounmpo, a thin man, Randle has a huge physical advantage.

Livingston, who got the ball on the Warriors' side, immediately threw the basketball into Randle's hands, and Randle took the ball inside, still facing Antetokounmpo, which was a huge threat to the Lakers' defense.

At this time, Gasol, who was supposed to defend on the inside, had to be pulled out by Barnes to defend three points on the outside, and Randle's pass was also very powerful, and he didn't dare not go out.

Just when Gasol couldn't advance or retreat, Randle slammed back hard, easily knocking Antetokounmpo back, and then turned around and hit the three-second zone.

Randle hit Whiteside directly after passing Antetokounmpo, Whiteside was afraid that Randle would pass to Azeli behind him, and secondly, Randle's explosive power, Whiteside didn't dare to pounce, maybe it was a foul, 2 plus 1 is also possible.

Randle saw that Whiteside didn't dare to pounce, so he chose to come by himself, and the left-handed man took the ball with his left hand and made a layup at an angle that Whiteside couldn't get around the basket!

At this moment, Liu Ren strode in and slapped Randle's layup to the rebound!

Even the cover with the grab!

Liu Ren's iconic pegboard hat!

D'Antoni changed this lineup to strengthen the defense, now that the offense has been opened, he used the super-mobile Clarkson, Liu Ren, and Antetokounmpo to play, and the three people are enough to defend the entire outside line of the Warriors, and Liu Ren and Antetokounmpo's mid-to-long-distance defense ability is also very good, and they can also help defend the interior, so that there are Gasol and Whiteside on the inside, and the Lakers' defense is almost airtight!

Liu Ren won the ball, and the Lakers counterattacked!

Liu Ren used his teammates to block the opponent's pursuit, and a dragon counterattack dunked.

Overtake the score!

The Lakers took the lead for the first time in 15 minutes in this game!

If it is a position, Liu Ren may not be able to get the ball, then the Lakers' offense is stagnant, after all, Liu Ren is the Lakers' first scoring point, and his score accounts for almost one-third of the Lakers' total score! The Lakers' tactics are also set up for him to finish the offense, he can't receive the ball, and relying on role players to score is not a way for the Lakers to win.

So D'Antoni chose a fast lineup at the beginning of the second quarter, and when the Warriors switched to a lineup that could play fast, he immediately switched to a stronger defensive lineup, dragging the game into a positional defensive counterattack!

Steve Cole has a lot of talent as a coach, but he is still a little more tender than the cunning D'Antoni, and without the assistant coach of tactician Luke Wharton, there are many things he can't see that no one has reminded him.

The Lakers are now focusing on defensive counterattacks, so the Warriors' tactics of trying to prevent Liu Ren from taking the ball will not work, Antetokounmpo and Gasol are both masters of long passes, Liu Ren is fast, and Liu Ren can't catch the ball and Clarkson, a point guard who is as fast as Clarkson, gives Liu Ren more opportunities to get the ball.

If Liu Ren can get the ball, the Lakers' offense will be smooth.

The Warriors called a timeout again after being hit by the Lakers on several consecutive counterattacks.

I can't help it!

The Lakers are more prepared this time than the last time the two teams met!

Steve Kerr also broke the jar in desperation, and directly replaced the death five small lineup of Curry, Thompson, Iguodala, Barnes, and Randle.

The Lakers, you're going to make a long pass and a fast offense, and Steve Kerr is also ready to use a super fast offense to make hard steel!

Not to mention, Steve Cole's change of trick really worked.

Curry and Thompson loved the fast-paced style of play so much that they hit back-to-back three-pointers.

Although the Lakers also made a decisive fast break after the opponent scored, most of them were two points, and the opponent's five-small lineup was too big to prevent.

D'Antoni didn't expect Steve Kerr to use such a rotation, and at the end of the game, the money was scored by Curry for four three-pointers, and he was overtaken again!

57-61, halftime, the Lakers trailed by four more points.
