Chapter 331: Bloodcap Divine Turtle
When Li Yang returned to the court, it was already five minutes in the second quarter of the game, and Li Yang rested off the court for 9 minutes, even if in these 9 minutes, the Spurs were once overtaken by the Thunder, and Popovich was not in a hurry to replace Li Yang.

At 40:37, when Li Yang came on the court, the Spurs' lead was 3 points.
Parker's injury has an impact on the Spurs after all, because after Li Yang mentioned the starting lineup, the Spurs' bench lineup will naturally be affected, especially in this game because Split and the team's tactics do not match, so they can only appear on the court as Duncan's substitute, which is equivalent to one less rotation player for the team.
However, knowing that Li Yang would suffer a lot of defensive pressure in this game, especially in the second half of the game, he may not be able to get the same rest time as in the first half, so Popovich let Li Yang have plenty of rest between the first and second quarters of the game.
Li Yang came on the court, and Ginobili, who played nearly a quarter on the court, returned to the court, but at this time, Li Yang was not directly placed in the point guard position, and the Spurs used a lineup of Duncan, Leonard, Li Yang, Green, and Mills at this time.
Such a lineup is familiar to the Spurs, and at the same time, such a lineup can also relieve some of Li Yang's organizational pressure, after all, there is a point guard on the court with Milstar.
The Spurs took the lead in attacking, and Li Yang naturally did not take the initiative to control the ball as a point guard at this time, Li Yang fell on the right side of the baseline position, and the task of ball control organization was handed over to Mills, but Mills quickly passed the ball to Duncan in the high position.
Paying attention to the running of his teammates, his eyes inadvertently swept over Westbrook, who was defending in front of him, and the next moment, Li Yang suddenly started and rushed to the basket along the bottom line.
The Spurs' lineup is also a lineup that can open up enough space, although Li Yang does not have the ball in his hand at this time, but he has the same task, which is to attack the basket.
Westbrook in front of Li Yang obviously also paid attention to Li Yang's defense, and when he saw Li Yang about to rush to the basket, he immediately stuck tightly in front of Li Yang's side, which not only ensured that he could block in front of Li Yang at any time, but also allowed him to intercept Duncan's pass as soon as Li Yang tried to rush past him to receive the ball.
Li Yang also knew this very well, so he didn't try to attack the basket directly, and rushed forward to take a step into the three-second zone, and then a quick stop and ran back to the middle distance of the baseline again.
Duncan's pass came as soon as possible, and when he got the ball, his center of gravity was raised, and Li Yang made a move to shoot directly, and when he saw this scene, Westbrook immediately pounced.
"Oops!" the next moment, Westbrook shouted in frustration, and after jumping in the air, he found that Li Yang did not jump at all, and he immediately realized what was happening after years in the NBA.
"Young shot...... Feints!Young shook Russell Westbrook, Russell tried to dodge, oh, the referee's whistle!"
Chowsbrook did try to avoid Li Yang's foul, but at this time, Li Yang had already jumped up and leaned directly towards Westbrook, and the referee's whistle followed suit.
Listening to the referee's whistle, Li Yang, who had physical contact with Westbrook in the air, made a fierce effort in his waist and abdomen, and was stunned to throw the ball out of the air.
"Oh, sh*it!" Immediately afterward, Westbrook exploded into a foul language.
The basketball drills into the net, the goal is valid, and the three points are played!
"2+1! Yang who just came on the court completed 2+1! I have to say that Yang is too much better on the offensive end than last season, I remember that last season, Yang would only attack the same ......"
As soon as Van Gundy said this, Brin immediately shouted: "No, no, Jeff, it's not the same, in fact, last season Young learned two ways to attack, dunk and free throws." ”
"Okay, yes, but I remember as an outside player he shot very bad free throws last season, oh, well, he's so much better now, he's done the free throws. ”
Li Yang added a free throw, the ball was in the hands of Westbrook, Westbrook's performance in this section was good, in the past short period of time, because Li Yang and Leonard were not on the court, and even Duncan was not on the court for a while, so he got a lot of opportunities to attack the basket.
It's just that with Li Yang's return, Westbrook is obviously not so easy, and in the first round of Li Yang's play, he gave Li Yang a two-plus-one.
The Spurs used Green to defend Durant at this time, and in order to reduce the pressure on Li Yang, they chose to let Leonard defend Westbrook.
Westbrook may have been stimulated by the previous foul by Li Yangzao, or it may have been that the previous offense gave him confidence, and in the face of Leonard's defense, he still wanted to attack the basket directly, but he only rushed halfway but was stopped.
It's just that Westbrook was very resolute at this time, he didn't pass the ball to Durant, who was running, he took a small step back, opened up the space with Leonard, and then started again suddenly, and he continued to rush to the basket.
The advantage in speed allowed Westbrook to finally find some space next to Leonard, bend down and take a step forward, and then lean slightly on Leonard, where Westbrook grabbed the ball with one hand and flew to the basket.
"Russell, be careful!"
Jumping into the air, Westbrook immediately heard the shouts of his teammates, but he didn't realize what was happening while he was in the air.
Mike Brin on the sidelines was naturally able to see what was going on on the court, and he shouted immediately: "Russell makes a strong layup, Young makes up for defense, blocks!" Beautiful block, Young covers Russell's layup......
In this game, Li Yangke was not only liberated on the offensive end, but also on the defensive end, he did not directly face the main offensive player of the Thunder, but also completely liberated him on the defensive end, which can better play his power of assisting in defense and supplementing defense.
At the same time as Russell broke through Leonard's defense, Li Yang rushed out from Leonard's side and back, jumped high, and directly instigated the basketball with one palm!
"Damn!" found that the ball that had just flown out of his hand fell quickly, and Westbrook immediately realized what was happening, and muttered to himself, because he had just had a physical confrontation with Leonard, and the jump was not high, and he quickly took a small step after landing to pick up the falling basketball in his hand.
With the basketball, Westbrook took a step forward and got to the basket, then kicked the floor hard and jumped again, this time, Westbrook jumped high enough.
As he jumped, Westbrook's body was spinning, and when he came out of the left side of the basket, he was already facing the basket again, and at the same time, the ball in his hand was pressed towards the basket.
"Russell ......"
If it was usual, Westbrook performed such a 180-degree turn to dunk the action, the fans on the scene were naturally extremely excited, but at this moment, looking at the court, they were extremely worried, because they clearly saw that above Westbrook's head, a yellow-skinned giant palm had stopped in the middle of the basketball basket!
"What?"
Westbrook, who turned around and was already about to dunk, also found Li Yang's palm, which made him extremely surprised, he didn't expect such an attack to be judged accurately by Li Yang.
It's just that Westbrook only had time to let out a sound of surprise at this time, and the next moment, Li Yang's palm had once again been heavily incited on the basketball.
"Smack!" The huge resistance from top to bottom made Westbrook fall directly to the floor in an instant.
"Kick, kick!" Westbrook, who fell to the floor, took two big steps back to the back before he could barely stabilize his body, and at this moment, in the commentary seat, Mike Brin's high-pitched shouts had already reached the ears of the fans in front of the screen.
"Bang! Oh God, Young blocked Russell again, and he blocked Russell for a beautiful dunk!" )
