Li Yang thought that Popovich might send himself on the court in the second half to play the role of a surprise soldier, but what Li Yang didn't expect was that this time, he got a chance in the third quarter of the game. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After the start of the second half of the game, the two teams were as stalemate as in the first quarter, the Spurs, who led by 12 points, continued to play steadily, and it was not easy for the Nets to narrow the score, and it was difficult for the Spurs to pull the score away directly when several of the main players of the Nets were still playing well.

At 76:65, the third quarter of the game was over with 3 minutes left, and the difference between the two teams remained at 11 points.

The Spurs began to rotate players two minutes ago, and the Nets began to schedule the main players to rest at this time. At such a time, Popovich sent Li Yang.

Thiago Split, Li Yang, Stephen Jackson, Danny Green, Patrick Mills, this is the lineup that the Spurs have arranged in the field.

On the other end, the Nets had two starters on the court, with power forward Humphries and shooting guard Joe Johnson staying on the court and the rest of the bench.

The point guard was replaced by CJ Watson, a 1.88-meter-tall guard who has been in the league for six seasons, the small forward was replaced by Keith Bogans, and the center was replaced by Andre Blatche.

"CJ, Chris......"

As soon as the players from both sides walked onto the field, Callesimo shouted at the players on the field, while making a gesture towards Watson and Humphries, who were called.

Li Yang faced Humphries again, only this time, Li Yang was on the defensive side.

Humphries is a defensive interior player who doesn't have a great offense, and that's why Popovich has a big four-size-fits-all lineup at this time. Of course, there's also the fact that the Spurs don't really have too many interior players on the roster right now.

After coming to the court, Li Yang found that Humphries was not the same as what he had observed on the sidelines before, because he found that Humphries was actually squeezing himself to move to the inside line at this time.

Humphries's singles? After a little observation, Li Yang finally understood the Nets' tactics.

Li Yang expected it well, Callesimo shouted on the sidelines before, and the arrangement was to let Humphries fight Li Yang, although Humphries's offense was not very good, but such a misalignment was a very good opportunity in Callesimo's opinion.

So Humphries stuck Li Yang and started to ask for the ball after falling to the half, and Watson, who had already received the coach's instructions, did not hesitate to pass the ball over.

Behind Humphries, after feeling the contrast of strength between the two, Li Yang found that there was still a gap between him and the other party in terms of strength.

During this period of time, he has participated in the training of the Spurs team, and after many comparisons, Li Yang found that although he had an obvious advantage in playing the No. 3 position in the Development League, compared with NBA players, such an advantage was not too obvious, for example, when comparing with Leonard, Li Yang found that there was still a gap between his strength and the opponent.

However, considering that Leonard has been trained in the Spurs for more than a season, Li Yang believes that such a gap is not unacceptable, and even his own development potential will be greater than that of the other party, after all, the NBA and the development league's training system is completely different.

At this time, when facing an inside player like Humphries, who is relatively good in his own strength, Li Yang naturally has no advantage in terms of strength.

The thing that made Li Yang feel that it would not be too bad was that Humphries's attack was indeed not too good, and his back hitting power skills were very average, so although Li Yang was also squeezed to move backwards, he was not completely without resistance.

However, Li Yang also realized that he had to be smarter, and he couldn't just defend passively.

The body continued to push behind Humphries, Li Yang carefully observed the opponent's every move, and he knew that for this kind of player who does not often play back, their movements must have more flaws.

Li Yang's speculation was not based on speculation, and he soon found an opportunity.

Feeling that his offensive position was more suitable, Humphries was ready to stop dribbling and turn to attack, perhaps thinking about the next attack, his center of gravity subconsciously raised, and the corresponding ball was dribbled higher.

In Humphries's mind, at this time, he only needed to hold the ball with both hands to complete the turn to directly block Li Yang to complete the attack.

But at this moment, Li Yang moved!

Humphries's center of gravity was raised so that Li Yang no longer needed to bear all of Humphries's strength, seizing the opportunity that the opponent might relax his vigilance at this moment, Li Yang's right hand quickly poked out from Humphries's side and slapped into Humphries's basketball that had just fallen into his hands and was not fully clenched.

"Smack!"

Li Yang's palm hit the basketball accurately, and the basketball immediately broke away from Humphries's grasp and fell to the floor.

Humphries, who was already ready to turn around and attack, thought that he would be suddenly attacked at this time, and when the ball was out of his hand, his center of gravity shifted back and he was already about to turn around, and he didn't have time to turn back to pick up the ball.

But Li Yang was different, while reaching out, Li Yang's body was ready to get out of the entanglement with Humphries, and when he found that he had indeed knocked the ball out of Humphries's hands, he immediately rushed out from behind Humphries.

Steals!

After rushing out, Li Yang picked up the ball, and then quickly ran to the other half with the ball!

There is a foundation for this body's dribbling, although it is difficult for Li Yang to make too many fancy dribbling moves in the process of breaking through if he faces too much defensive pressure, but his solid dribbling skills and this period of adaptation allow him to dribble forward without affecting his speed.

Running forward with the ball, at this moment, he showed his impact speed without reservation!

This is a good offensive opportunity, which Li Yang knows very well!

Because Li Yang's steal was really a bit unexpected by the Nets players, when Li Yang picked up the ball and attacked quickly, the Nets players were not able to retreat in advance, and they almost started at the same time as Li Yang.

Watson and Johnson, who were closer to the perimeter, had already retreated to the halfcourt at this time, but Humphries and Bleche, who were closer to the basket, and Bogans, who was preparing to respond in the bottom corner, were left behind in the process of Li Yang's impact.

When Li Yang rushed to the three-point line with the ball, Mills and Danny Green had already rushed to the three-point line on both sides, completely emptying the basket, they were very clear about Li Yang's impact, so the matter of impacting the basket was directly handed over to Li Yang, and they obviously stood outside the three-point line will be more deterrent.

Watson and Johnson, who were retreating, both chose to shrink to the inside at this time, and it was clear that Li Yang's impact in the first half had left a deep impression on them.

As for Green and Mills, they can only hope that the players who will follow up will be able to make up for the defense in time.

Dribbling the ball and constantly approaching the basket, Li Yang's eyes swept over the two people who retreated towards the inside, of course he could see at this time that the two of them were actually still concerned about the three-point line on both sides, so they did not completely retreat to the basket.

"Can't make up your mind? Then let me help you!"

Secretly said in his heart, Li Yang's excellent explosive power was displayed again, and he accelerated sharply under the rapid running, and he resolutely killed the basket.

Seeing this, Joe Johnson and Watson also didn't care about defending the Spurs players outside the three-point line, nor did they care about helping to delay time so that their teammates could keep up, they contracted towards the inside at the same time, standing in front of Li Yang's impact.

Pass!

Finding that the two defenders had been completely driven by themselves, Li Yang's already prepared basketball quickly passed out and sent it to Danny Green on the right side.

Of course, Li Yang can also pass to Mills on the left, but Bogans has rushed to the left three-point line with Leonard at this time, and in order not to give the Nets players any chance to make up for it, he passed the ball to Green on the right.

"Damn!"

Seeing that Li Yang actually passed the ball at this time, Johnson and Watson both realized that their two had made a mistake in judgment, and couldn't help but curse in their hearts, and then stared at Green on the outside, praying that the other party would not score.

It's just that the two obviously didn't think about it, if they didn't block Li Yang's impact route at the same time, maybe Li Yang would directly end the attack with a violent slam.

But now, it's clear that the results are also very good.

"Whew!" Danny Green catches the ball and shoots it and hits a three-point shot!
