After a dead-ball, Rivers sent on Paul, Griffin, Collison and Willie Green, and all but Crawford was a substitute. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Spurs also made slight lineup adjustments, and the Spurs at this time used a lineup of Duncan, Leonard, Li Yang, Danny Green, and Mills.

The Clippers took the lead in attacking, and the ball was naturally in Paul's hands, and after possession of the ball to the half, Paul found that his defender was no longer Danny Green in the first quarter of the game, but replaced by Li Yang.

Paul habitually called for blocking, but after blocking, he saw that it was no longer Li Yang who defended in front of him, but it was Leonard again.

Li Yang and Leonard switched defenses, handing Paul to Leonard, and Li Yang went to the opposite Griffin.

At this time, the Clippers seem to be misplaced, whether it is Paul attacking Leonard or Griffin attacking Li Yang, but such a dislocation is obviously only nominal, whether it is Leonard or Li Yang, they are all players who can defend from the No. 1 position to the No. 4 position.

There was no point in blocking and dismantling at this point, and Griffin squeezed Li Yang to the low post and reached out to Paul to receive the ball.

Griffin's lethality lies in his impact and more and more stable mid-range shots, and the low post is obviously not what he is very good at, even if it is a misplaced hit to Li Yang at this time, but in the face of Li Yang after the strength is strengthened, Griffin does not have too obvious advantages.

After squeezing back twice, realizing that he couldn't squeeze Li Yang too easily, Griffin turned around towards the line and was about to dribble the ball directly into the inside.

Li Yang leaned tightly on Griffin's side, his eyes were staring at the basketball in the opponent's hand, squeezed by Griffin's strength, it was not easy for him to completely limit the opponent's strong charge, but this did not mean that Li Yang could not stop the opponent's attack.

Griffin rushed into the three-second zone with Li Yang, and after seeing that Duncan was about to step forward to help defend, Griffin was busy picking up the ball to attack.

"It's now!"

After seeing Griffin's move, Li Yang's eyes suddenly lit up, and his arm quickly reached out, cutting directly at the ball in the opponent's hand.

"Smack!"

Li Yang's judgment was very accurate, and his palm was firmly cut into the basketball that Griffin was holding.

Griffin was still trying to jump to attack, but when he did, he suddenly realized that the ball in his hand was gone.

"Li Yang steals, advances with the ball by himself, and plays counterattack ......"

Picked up the ball, Li Yang quickly rushed out, he didn't care if Griffin was asking the referee for a foul or something, he didn't hear the whistle He only knew one thing, that is, counterattack.

Although the Clippers' retreat was not slow, Li Yang's advance was faster, and he quickly rushed to the front court with the ball, not giving the Clippers a chance to defend at all.

Griffin was left behind by Li Yang, and the Clippers were forced to send one man to Li Yang again, and at this time Li Yang split the ball. Because the Clippers' defense was messed up again at this time, this time they vacated Danny Green from beyond the three-point line.

Seeing Li Yang's split ball fall into the hands of Danny Green, the Clippers fans at the scene suddenly shouted in their hearts, praying that Danny Green's shot missed, but the truth was ......

"Whew!" Green, who was in the vacant position, made a steady shot, and the ball passed through the net.

The difference between the two teams instantly widened to 8 points, which made the Clippers fans at the scene start to have some restlessness. At this time, Paul began to show his demeanor as the league's top point guard, and after receiving the serve from the backcourt, he slowly controlled the ball through the halfcourt, and at the same time pressed down with his hand to signal his teammates not to worry.

After seeing Paul's performance, the Clippers players, who were originally slightly flustered because the point difference was suddenly widened, gradually stabilized.

After coming to the half, Paul was also in a hurry to attack, still signaling Griffin to come forward to block and dismantle, and then he ignored the Spurs' change of defense, and after Griffin's block slightly interfered with the defense, he immediately rushed into the three-point line with the ball.

In the mid-range pull-up jump shot, Paul scored two points, which helped the Clippers stabilize the situation a little.

The Spurs' offense, with Parker and Ginobili out of the court at this point, Mills dribbled to the halfcourt and put the ball in the hands of Duncan, who was playing high post.

Duncan took the ball, and the other four Spurs players immediately ran up, Leonard cut to the basket, Mills and Danny Green ran outside the three-point line looking for opportunities, and Li Yang ran to Duncan.

After seeing that the rest of the players didn't get the opportunity to attack, Duncan handed the ball to Li Yang, who stepped forward to answer.

Receiving the ball on the right side of the free throw line, Li Yang changed direction and accelerated after getting the ball, and the person had already rushed to the basket with the ball.

Dudley, who was next to Li Yang, was not able to defend in time, and Jordan Jr. shrank to the basket as soon as possible to help defend at this time.

Li Yang did not slow down the pace of rushing forward because of Little Jordan's defense, and continued to rush forward, Li Yang jumped up against Little Jordan, and his body drilled directly into Little Jordan's arms.

Thinking that Li Yang was going to make a foul, Little Jordan raised his hands high at this time, not daring to make any extra moves.

However, Li Yang did not choose to shoot by himself, leaning on Little Jordan, and the ball in Li Yang's hand was sent directly from the opponent's waist.

Duncan followed up in time, and after receiving Li Yang's pass, he easily hit a board and made a layup!

Doug Rivers couldn't help frowning at this time, the Spurs' offensive success rate in this section was too high, and his team's offense was obviously limited.

Just as Green touched the ball out of bounds on the Spurs' side, Rivers immediately replaced J.J. Redick for Crawford, and he felt that the team needed a consistent outside scoring point to help distract the Spurs' defensive energy.

Rivers' adjustments worked, at least on the first offense, as Redick, who had just come on the court, took advantage of his off-ball run to shoot a three-pointer from beyond Paul's pass from beyond the three-point line to bring the deficit back to five points.

On the other end, the Spurs' offense was finally defended, and the ball continued to be played by Duncan in the high post, and Danny Green's catch after running was affected, and the ball bounced out of the basket.

The Clippers faced a good opportunity to chase points, but at this time the Clippers found that their offense was once again heavily defended, whether it was Paul and Griffin's blocking and pick-and-roll, or Redick's running, they couldn't find too good a shot.

In desperation, Paul chose to shoot on his own again, but this time, Li Yang was prepared and almost blocked Paul's shot.

Although Paul picked up speed on the final shot and dodged the block, the ball barely touched the front of the basket and fell into the hands of Duncan under the basket.

Beware that the Spurs will continue to play counterattacks, the Clippers retreated early and fell into a defensive formation, forcing the Spurs to fall into a positional battle.

To the surprise of the Clippers, the ball was handed over to Li Yang when they were playing a counterattack, and at this time it fell into the position, and the ball was still handed over to Li Yang, and Mills even dribbled to the half court and sent the ball directly to Li Yang.
