In the NBA league, different coaches have different coaching styles, which also shapes the different ways of play for each team, the Western Conference semifinals, away to the Thunder, the rotation stage, the second game started less than two minutes, and the difference has been widened to 9 points.

Faced with this situation, the head coach of the Spurs' Popovich will choose the last rotation player to stalk Li Ze crazily, trying to prevent his play, while Coach Carlisle prefers offense, and his choice is more daring!

Affected by the Thunder's excellent performance this season, the Mavericks have gradually adjusted their tactical play in the second half of the regular season, and they began to pursue offensive space on the court and began to rely more on three-point shooting, which can be regarded as the butterfly effect brought by Li Ze.

The Mavericks' coaching staff was actually prepared for falling behind in the rotation, although they didn't expect to fall behind so quickly...

At this time, the fans at the Ford Center Arena were already in high spirits, and everyone was shouting wildly, as long as the Thunder played a wave in the previous game, then they would quickly lock up the game.

It was difficult for everyone on the Mavericks bench to hear the specific arrangements of head coach Carlisle, the scene was too noisy, and the team's advance plan was particularly important at this time.

The assistant coach immediately called Jason Kidd and Dirk Nowitzki to him and motioned for them to play immediately, while Coach Carlisle quickly drew his tactics on the tactics board and shouted to Kidd:

"Jason, expand the ball range, go around the screen, run the figure 8, get moving! Guys, you have to move, we're going to mobilize the opponent's defense! ”

After the pause came back, the host Yu Jia saw the readjusted lineup of the Mavericks, and immediately said in surprise:

"Coach Carlisle actually won Haywood and Marion, and now the outside height is too short, Barria, Terry, Kidd, Caron Butler, Nowitzki, how to defend such a lineup?"

"The Mavericks have four guards and a power forward, and it's hard to imagine this lineup."

Director Zhang was also a little confused when he saw the Mavericks' crazy change of formation, which was completely different from what he imagined before the game...

When Li Ze returned to the court, he was immediately dumbfounded when he saw the lineup opposite, how obsessed he was with the defenders, and he actually got 4 little men, but after thinking about it, everyone on the other side could hold the ball and block and dismantle, which was also a problem, and before he had time to think deeply, Barria had quickly dribbled through the half.

“

Defense！

Defense！

Defense！ ”

The crowd at Ford Center began to shout loudly for the home team's defense, which is now leading by nearly double digits, and everyone is excited about such a great situation.

The Thunder quickly noticed that the Mavericks had begun to make consecutive hand-to-hand exchanges far from the three-point line, and Nowitzki stood on the three-point line, and the four guards were running on the outside line in a row under Kidd's organization.

When Barria faced Collisson's defense, he suddenly changed direction in front of his body, and accelerated his breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, Collison was cleaned, and the Thunder's defense instantly retracted inward, and Barria passed the ball to Kidd on the outside.

The Mavericks spun the ball fast, and when Jason Terry received Butler's pass, he didn't hesitate to make a quick jumper from beyond the three-point line.

Three-point shot, the Mavericks successfully narrowed the gap.

"Three-pointers! The Mavericks stretched the offensive space very wide and no longer pursued catching the ball at the three-point line, and the Thunder's defense did not keep up with the speed of Barria. ”

The host Yu Jia never expected that the Mavericks would attack like this, using space and speed to catch the Thunder team off guard.

The Thunder quickly sent a baseline ball, after Li Ze dribbled through the half, Ibaka lifted up to block and dismantle, Li Ze just broke through with his left hand, and Nowitzki and Kidd directly attacked one after the other.

Li Ze noticed this situation and immediately quickly gave the ball to Ibaka near the free throw line, and the Mavericks' defense continued to rotate, Caron Butler stepped forward to help defend, and Ibaka did not stop the ball, and passed the ball to Jeff Green on the outside again.

Noticing that the Mavericks' defense was catching up again, Jeff Green again passed the ball to Sofrosa in the bottom right corner, who received the ball and adjusted it to shoot a three-point jumper from a wide open position.

"Bang...", he was angry.

The long rebound was collected by Caron Butler, and as soon as it was passed to Jason Kidd, the Mavericks launched another conversion offense, and Li Ze quickly stepped forward to defend Kidd, delaying the opponent's advancement, and the Thunder had all retreated.

Just after halftime, Nowitzki came directly to make a block for Kidd, Li Ze quickly squeezed through, noticed Nowitzki moving quickly to the right, and Kidd did not hesitate and immediately passed the ball to Nowitzki.

The latter received the ball, made a false feint, and flew directly to Ibaka, then adjusted the rhythm and made a jump shot from beyond the three-point line.

"Huh...", the three-pointer went in again.

"God! The Mavericks hit two three-pointers in a row, and the difference was only three points in an instant, and it only took two rounds, which is amazing! ”

Director Zhang also instantly raised the volume of his commentary, these years, in the playoffs, relying on three-point shooting to chase points is not very common, only the Cavaliers in the East like this style of play, and in the West in the case of twin towers, many teams rely more on the inside...

"Oh!!"

The fans of the city let out a loud exclamation in unison, what is the situation? The score difference went back in an instant?

Li Ze naturally noticed this situation, he estimated that the other party would continue to wrap up, and immediately shouted to his teammates:

"Cut in the air, hit the ball inside, don't float outside and shoot threes, the opponent is a small man, score and grab the rebound!"

Several people on the court also immediately understood, when Li Zedribble was caught again in the half, the Thunder team continued to transfer the ball, this time Soflosa's bottom line cut empty, and after breaking through to the inside line, he was dragged down by Barria.

"Squeak..."

The referee's whistle signaled for Barria to shoot for a foul, Soflosa made two free throws, and at this time, Coach Carlisle was also ready to make a substitution, interrupting the Thunder's offensive momentum while closing the margin at the same time, and the two rounds were already successful.

When Sofrosa hit one of two free throws, Marion replaced Barria with a defender, and the Mavericks completely abandoned Dampier and Heywood, two bulky centers.

Coach Brooks was a little confused on the sidelines, he naturally understood that the Mavericks were guarding against Li Ze and consciously letting go of Soflosa, and the other party took advantage of the weakness of the Thunder's outside projection, which also showed that the Mavericks were very confident in their offense...

In the minutes that followed, Kidd consciously slowed the pace of the attack, and Nowitzki began to ask for the ball in the low post, showing off his arsenal of weapons against Ibaka's defence.

The breakthrough after the triple threat, the backward jumper after receiving the ball with his back, the Ibaka who hit the power can't be used...

Li Ze's side immediately handed over the ball after halftime and began to run more without the ball to get rid of the Mavericks' bag on him, and in the offensive round, Li Ze first used Collison's cover in the right elbow area of the free throw line to make a counter-run cut.

Marion chased Li Ze to the death, but did not succeed in cutting to the basket, Li Ze quickly ran outside the three-point line, and at the same time, Ibaka and Jeff Green made a closing cover for him, so that he could get rid of Marion's entanglement.

Sovlosa's pass quickly went to Li Ze's hands, Caron Butler immediately pounced, Nowitzki's attention was completely attracted by Li Ze, and before the opponent could finish the defense, Li Ze suddenly sent a through ball, and Collison, who cut to the basket, received the ball and easily put the ball in the basket.

The whole offense was completed again in 14 seconds, and when Coach Carlisle saw such a situation on the sidelines, he could only shake his head helplessly, Li Ze fully read the Mavericks' defense, and found a way to crack it after a few rounds... Is this a rookie?

After more than 6 minutes in the second quarter, the Thunder's rotation lineup, under the organization of Li Ze, did not easily shoot outside the three-point line, and hit the ball to the basket in a row, always maintaining a 4-point lead.

Coach Brooks also completely relieved, immediately replaced Li Ze, Jeff Green, and Collisson, and the rested Turtle, Durant, and Kostic appeared again, in order to use the strongest tactics in the third quarter, he must let the main team have enough rest time in the first half.

Coach Carlisle noticed that Kostic was on the court and also brought Dampier on the court, replacing Jason Terry, and the two teams gradually slowed down the offensive tempo in the second half of the second quarter.

Durant, who is back on the court, has gradually adapted to Marion's entangled defense, and Ibaka's cover quality is much better than that of Jeff Green, and finally played the offense that Russian City fans expect.

Durant pretended to cut inside, took advantage of Ibaka's cover in the left elbow area of the free throw line, quickly bounced out, received a pass from the turtle, and dribbled to the free throw line for a pull-up jump shot.

"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.

"Hah!!"

The crowd at Ford Center immediately cheered for Durant and finally threw it away, and fans were already anticipating the Thunder's outburst in the third quarter.

In the second half of the second quarter, the Mavericks relied on Kidd's outside three-pointers and Nowitzki's efficient performance to still bite the score, and at 58:64, the Thunder entered the second half with a six-point lead.

During the intermission, in the CCTV studio, host Yu Jia and guest Zhang Weiping also chatted about the Mavericks' change of formation in the second quarter.

"Coach Zhang, the Thunder temporarily led by 6 points at halftime, do you think the Mavericks will continue to make adjustments in the second half of the game?"

"I think the game is getting more and more interesting, Coach Carlisle doesn't want to let the small players be there too much, the defense is too much to lose, but it really hits the end of the game, six points are not safe, and you may be caught up in two rounds."

"This reminds me of the Cavaliers game we broadcast before, and this game mainly depends on the play of both sides in the third quarter, unlike the Spurs, the Mavericks can really throw in when they give the opportunity."

Director Zhang thought that Li Ze's personal wave in the second quarter could directly knock down the game, but the Mavericks chased back two three-pointers, and Bai was happy...

At this time, in the locker room of the Thunder team, everyone on the Thunder team remembered the fear of being dominated by the Mavericks' three-point shot in the regular season, and Durant also knew that he was a crow's mouth, so he didn't mention it at all, but just praised Marion's defense:

"At the age of 32, it hasn't completely declined, why did the Suns trade Marion in the first place?"

"Maybe it's because the opponent's outside shooting is so bad, thank God, Marion's three-point shot is not accurate, it's crazy, they actually played four guards in the second quarter."

Jeff Green has become a little timid in the second quarter, the Mavericks have been chasing points for a while, and he was completely blown up by Nowitzki, and he complained a little down.

"We're going to win, and I don't believe Kidd can hit back-to-back three-pointers in the second half."

Before Li Ze finished speaking, everyone in the locker room immediately spoke up and interrupted Li Ze's words.

"God, Kayce, don't talk about it!"

"Did Kevin infect you with a crow's mouth? Needless to say, I don't want to see a guy shoot a three-pointer from the outside again! ”

After Coach Brooks walked into the locker room, he noticed that everyone's mood was not bad, and he was also a little relieved that the team had really grown a lot, and knocked on the whiteboard before he spoke:

"Okay, boys, we played well in the half, but in the third quarter, we have to change our offensive strategy and every time we attack, we have to pay more attention to the opponent's defensive position."

"Whether it is Dampier and Nowitzki in the starters, or Haywood on the bench, the opponent's rim protection ability is much weaker than we expected, and the Mavericks don't want to consume Nowitzki's physical energy too much on the defensive end, so in the third quarter, we have to hit the ball more to the basket."

"Look at the defense, pay attention to the position of their post players, I'm sure you're going to handle the offense, Kayce, control the tempo of the game, be careful not to make mistakes, we can slow down the offense a little bit."

The assistant coach also reminded at this time:

"There's no team that can shoot more than 40 percent from beyond the three-point line, this is our home court, guys, we had very good foul control in the first half, bold defense in the third quarter, and the referee's blow scale tonight was much more lenient than you think."

When Li Ze heard the assistant coach's words, he immediately reacted, and he received a total of two fouls in the first half, which is a major benefit! Thinking of blowing the penalty scale, I couldn't help but smile in my heart:

"It's time to add some confrontation!"

At the beginning of the third quarter of the game, Li Ze looked at the turtle with a serious expression beside him, and immediately reminded in a low voice:

"Russell, let's not forget that we changed our defensive strategy, we were going to keep an eye on Kidd, and the two of us were going to press the opposing backcourt, just like we did at UCLA!"

"Don't worry, what I'm best at is marking defense, and I'm going to lock that old guy to death!"

Turtle Turtle immediately bumped fists with Li Ze, saying that he had no problem at all, and Li Ze also put his mind at ease, as long as he suppressed the ball carrier of the Mavericks and played a wave of climax, the trend of the game would instantly tilt towards the Thunder team's side.

In the first attack after the start of the second half, Kidd slowly dribbled the ball across the half, and because the Thunder usually play a wave of climaxes in the third quarter, the audience at the Ford Center Arena was also particularly energetic at this time, shouting loudly:

“

Defense！！ Defense！！ Defense！！ ”

Just after halftime, Kidd immediately found that the Thunder's defense had changed, and the turtle had quickly pasted up, constantly pressing Kidd with his body, which made Kidd only protect the ball with his back and quickly make an offensive gesture to his teammates.

Caron Butler immediately came to the line to catch the ball, and Li Ze's defense did not immediately follow, but kept a half-step distance to give the opponent a space to start.

Sure enough, Caron Butler noticed that Li Ze did not press himself, quickly released the ball with his left hand, changed his body to the front, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand.

At this time, Li Ze quickly slid forward, exerted force under his feet, and directly stuck to it, and at the same time gave the opponent a strong physical confrontation on his side, and hit it hard, and Caron Butler's dribbling rhythm was completely destroyed.

Li Ze saw the opportunity, quickly cut the ball with his left hand, snatched the ball down, and after controlling the ball, he threw the ball directly to the front court with his right hand.

"Ahh

The crowd at Ford Center Arena instantly erupted in huge cheers, and everyone was shouting excitedly, is it time to start? Let's go in waves!

"It was definitely a foul defensive move, he almost knocked down my player, defensive foul!"

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines was very dissatisfied with the referee's punishment at this time, and kept putting pressure on the linesman, knowing that if the referee allowed such a defense, the Mavericks' outside line would be in huge trouble.

But the referee was indifferent and only motioned for Carlisle to hurry back to his position.

The Mavericks quickly sent a baseline ball, Kidd had just used half court, and the turtle began to wrap up again, noticing that Caron Butler was also heavily guarded by Richer, Marion stepped up at this time, took the initiative to come to the upper line to transition the ball, and then immediately gave the ball to Nowitzki in the low post.

The latter received the ball, faced Jeff Green's defense, and after a three-threat, made a pull-up jumper.

"Whew...", a steady hit from mid-range.

The Thunder team didn't care, and immediately sent a baseline ball, and the turtle dribbled across the halfcourt, and immediately signaled Jeff Green to make a cover for Li Ze, and quickly passed the ball to Li Ze's hands, and Jeff Green also came to a position 45 degrees outside the three-point line.

Caron Butler's defense didn't dare to stick too close, for fear of being suddenly accelerated by Li Ze, and after noticing Jeff Green coming, he wanted to stick it to defend, but noticed that Li Ze seemed to want to break through with his right hand, and the center of gravity of the defense changed instantly.

Noticing that Caron Butler was shaking, Li Ze broke through at this time, accelerated with the ball in his left hand and accelerated with all his might, instantly passing Caron Butler's defense, Dampier realized that it was too late for his defense, so he no longer made a background board, and watched Li Ze's powerful tomahawk explosion!

"Bang..."Breakthrough dunk success.

"Oh!!"

Li Ze's breakthrough dunk ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, and everyone threw up the white handkerchief in their hands again and shouted in unison:

“OKC！ OKC！ OKC！ ”

"There's no way to prevent it! Li Ze shook Caron Butler over with a feint, and the defense was already a little about to collapse! This can control the ball flexibly with both left and right hands, which is amazing! ”

When Director Zhang saw Li Ze break through the dunk, he immediately blew it directly...

The Mavericks' offense is becoming more and more difficult, the Thunder's oppressive defense, of course, it is impossible to keep the whole court, but it can still be done with a sudden force in a certain quarter, plus the bonus of the home whistle, Kidd needs to pout his ass to protect the ball after each half...

And Caron Butler is also a little sluggish at this time, Li Ze is almost the same size as him, but there is a gap in the athletic ability of the two, plus Li Ze rarely eats and shakes, under the strong physical confrontation, Caron Butler is dumb.

The Mavericks began to put the ball in Nowitzki's hands frequently, and against the Thunder's interior defense, Nowitzki showed his dominance, not only scoring himself, but also feeding Dampier frequently.

It's just that when the third quarter hit 5 minutes and 42 seconds, Coach Brooks replaced Kostic with Ibaka, which enhanced the mobility of the interior, Dampier also wilted, and in the face of Ibaka's help defense, the 35-year-old Dampier couldn't stand it and began to spit cakes continuously...

And Li Ze saw the opportunity, immediately picked off the pass button, and began to ask for the ball in the low post continuously, the Thunder attacked, Li Ze, who received the ball with his back to the left waist, noticed that Kidd on the line moved towards him, and after his shoulder shook quickly, he quickly released the ball with his right hand, easily erasing Caron Bart's defense.

With the ball in his right hand, he accelerated along the baseline and faced Dampier who came to help defend him, took off from a long distance, dodged the cover in the air, and deftly pulled the lever to easily score the ball on the other side of the basket.

After the Mavericks passed halftime, Marion immediately came to the line to transition the ball, quickly gave the ball to Nowitzki in the low post, and just dribbled a step to the line, Ibaka's immediately went over to wrap it.

When Nowitzki passed inside to Dampiers, Ibaka quickly helped back again, and Dampier failed to put the ball in the basket due to the interference of the defense, and Ibaka successfully protected the backcourt rebound.

And the Mavericks have quickly retreated at this time, this time Li Ze directly held the ball and dribbled through the half court, and at the same time signaled to his teammates not to cover, Caron Butler looked at Li Ze's gesture, and suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, can he change someone to play...

Li Ze, who was outside the three-point line on the left side, faced Caron Butler's defense, lowered his center of gravity, and left hand in

and

out, then quickly dribbled behind his back, and pretended to break through with the ball in his right hand, shaking Caron Butler's defensive center of gravity backwards.

At this time, Li Ze suddenly accelerated the rhythm of dribbling, quickly pulled back with his right hand, changed direction under his crotch very quickly with his left hand, and at the same time exerted force with his feet, and retreated outside the three-point line to shoot a jumper.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

Caron Butler stood in place at this time, and the Russian fans on the scene were already excited to go to the sky, everyone screamed, and many fans on the sidelines sprayed at Carlon Butler:

"Go home, man, let your agent find a good team in advance, the Dallas people won't sign you next season!"

"You've got a few points, Bro? What does it feel like to be beaten by a superstar? ”

"Hurry up and throw in the towel! Kayce is destroying you on both ends of the floor, and you don't want to run out of balls next season! ”

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines felt helpless when he saw Li Ze, who quickly retreated, and on the guard line, Caron Butler was already the best defender, and when he saw that the difference had come to 12 points, he asked for a timeout again.

But unfortunately, as long as the margin reaches more than 10 points, the role players of the Thunder team will slowly let go, Jeff Green also began to hit three-pointers, and Ibaka helped him decompress on the defensive end, and the shooting percentage finally began to rise.

The Mavericks, on their side, didn't give up, Jason Terry and Barria also took turns on the court, throwing the ball when they had an opportunity from the outside, and although they did throw in a few three-pointers, the Thunder always responded quickly on the offensive end.

Coach Brooks also used his strongest tactics, and the Thunder's trio played the entire second half without a minute...

Coach Carlisle's side was also extremely stubborn, resolutely not changing the water cooler to play, and persevered until the end of the game, 104:116, the Thunder successfully defeated the Mavericks at home and made a good start to the Western Conference semifinals.

Li Ze was 11 of 19 in this game, including 4 of 6 three-pointers and 3 of 4 free throws, scoring 29 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 turnovers and 3 steals, plus Durant's 27 points, Turtle and Turtle's 22 points, and the Thunder trio scored 78 points.

After the game, after a simple handshake by Caron Butler, he quickly walked back to the locker room, and he only got 12 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 turnovers in this game.

Nowitzki was very friendly, he scored 34 points in this game, including 10 free throws, and in general, the referee did let him enjoy some star whistle treatment, seeing Li Ze's happy face, he immediately stepped forward and said:

"It looks like you're really comfortable with the playoffs, but we're going to bounce back in the next game!"

"We're going to protect our home stadium, you have to be careful, man, I'm really not going to show mercy."

After a simple hug and greeting, Li Ze and Nowitzki thanked the Russian City fans who were there with their teammates, everyone was so enthusiastic tonight, cheering for the team every round.

“Kayce！ Kayce！ Over here! Yes! I'm here! ”

Hearing the heart-rending shout, Li Ze noticed that a little boy who looked like he was eleven or twelve years old with slightly curly hair was waving at him frantically, Li Ze immediately walked over, this little fan He did have some impressions, first bumped fists with the other party, and then asked out loud:

"What about your parents? The scene is so messy, don't get lost with your family, autograph? No problem. ”

"I'm already an adult, I can take care of myself, Kayce, you're so cool, when I grow up, I'll be like you, shoot three-pointers like you do, I'm going to get into the NBA!"

Li Ze asked out loud while signing autographs for the young fan:

"I'm sure you can do it, come on! What is your name? ”

“Trae

Young！ ”

After Li Ze heard this name, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his expression was a little strange, but he still wrote on his jersey:

"To the future superstar Trae

Young”

Li Ze, who was walking in the players' tunnel, always lingered in his heart, especially the future memories that emerged in his mind, so he couldn't help but muttered in his heart:

"I haven't developed a porcelain style of play now, and I hope that will really change in the future."

......

On May 3rd, with the Thunder's successful victory over the Mavericks, the day's games were all over, and tonight, the Eastern Conference semifinals G2 was also being played simultaneously, and to everyone's surprise, the Cavaliers lost at home today...

At 104:86, the Celtics defeated the Cavaliers on the road, this game lost a little inexplicably, in the third quarter, the Cavaliers suddenly lost power at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and only scored 12 points in a single quarter, while the Celtics exploded 31 points, instantly establishing the victory of the game.

Fans of the Celestial Empire on the other side of the ocean naturally paid attention to these two games, Li Ze won, LeBron James lost, which made many fans cry out, after all, James just won the regular season MVP, and Cormi has been waiting for an opportunity.

On this day, Tiger Pounce briefly turned into Zepuff, and then it became a paradise for all Zhanhei.

"Li Zeniu X! It's not too much to give a best second team, Caron Butler is completely blown out! ”

"I said a long time ago that Caron Butler can't do it, he will also bully players like Afflalo, Carlisle also has problems, always use those small defenders, less than 1.9 meters tall, to defend with his head!"

"Nowitzki is still too strong! But Dampier and Haywood are really not good, they can barely see the Nuggets' guard line, Westbrook broke through crazy in the second half, what is the use of these two..."

"It's over, I'm soft (Nowitzki's nickname) I don't think I can make it to the Western Finals, and the three-point shot is also out of order, both inside and outside, Kuban hurry up and strengthen it in the offseason, I want to see Nowitzki win the championship!"

"James is finally exposed! Or win MVP at this level? 12 points in a single quarter, laughing at me, Volute alone exploded the Cavaliers! ”

“

MVP should be given to Volute, just one win away, why James? also held a press conference at the University of Akron, which is a good treatment, but it's a pity that James is not angry! ”

"I'm looking forward to the Celtics' 4-1 gentleman's sweep of James, Jamie has been blowing for a year, why is it silent now?"

"Can this also be blamed on James? Which pass is not empty, teammates can't! ”

"I can watch the game, 4 points and 3 turnovers in a single quarter, blame my teammates? Team boss, you stand up! ”

Li Ze, who went home early, didn't know that LeBron James was in the storm of losing at this time, winning at home, and his teammates played, and this result also made him breathe a sigh of relief.

After Meimei took a bath, seeing a large number of text messages on his mobile phone, Li Ze immediately shook his head helplessly, but the blessing text messages must also be replied, and the surface brothers still have to get along...

When Li Ze saw the news that Shakira gave him, he couldn't help but pout, the rich woman's mind is not easy to guess...

"I'm loving receiving your gift, someone has been chasing me lately, Pretty

Boy, you have to behave well! ”

On April 29th, FIFA and Sony Music Entertainment jointly announced that the song "Wakawaka" sung and composed by Shakira was selected as the only theme song officially designated by the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Li Ze, who got the news in advance, naturally prepared a gift early, and Chapman helped him customize a bracelet to commemorate his first encounter with Shakira in the All-Star Game...

Li Ze thought of the happy appearance of the other party every time he video chatted with Shakira, so he still edited a text message and replied:

"Charismatic Miss Shakira, there is a zealous Mr. Knight who is willing to help you with any troubles and entanglements."

"Thank me for the kind little knight, and tell him how much I love him."

Li Ze saw the text message replied in seconds, and couldn't help pouting again, this girl wants to catch this and indulge there, and she must increase the intensity of the game in the future!

"I'm getting more and more mature in this singles technique, it's time to add some confrontation to her..."

On May 4th, the Eastern Conference semifinals Magic vs. the Hawks officially started, as people imagined before the game, the Magic team fighting at home directly beat the Hawks, 71:114, the home team beat the opponent, if the bench is more powerful, maybe it can surpass the 58 tragedy!

In the Western Conference semifinals that started at the same time, the Lakers who were playing at home easily defeated the Suns again, 112:124, Kobe Bryant faced the Suns' bag and easily cut 21 points, 5 rebounds, 13 assists and 2 steals, and the Lakers blossomed a little bit.

After the game, all the media of Amica gave crazy praise to Kobe, and many reporters and critics who did things shouted that Kobe Bryant was the player who should win the MVP of the regular season, and LeBron James stole the honor that belonged to Kobe...

On May 5th, another piece of news about LeBron James began to circulate repeatedly on social media and news reports, and LeBron James was interviewed by ABC TV Chris Cuomo after the Eastern Conference semifinals were tied 1-1.

When asked about James' remarks on April Fool's Day that "he will stay in Cleveland", LeBron James' answer was surprising and his attitude became ambiguous:

"Cleveland is a great city and the fans are incredible, they watched me grow up and did so much for me. Now that I've come to this day, I just want to focus on bringing a championship to the city, and when the time comes, I'll make a decision! ”

As soon as this news broke, Cavaliers fans almost exploded, what is the situation, after only one loss, their chosen son is leaving the city?

All the NBA reporters and commentators are talking about it, but most are still convinced that LeBron James will stay with the Cavaliers, and he just wants to put pressure on management to make reinforcements in the offseason...

All the news about LeBron James, the Thunder team is not paying much attention, tonight, the G2 game is about to start, only one day apart, which is also a big challenge for the Thunder team, after all, the last game has been played for a long time...

During the afternoon recovery training session, Brooks' head coach and coaching staff were very concerned about Li Ze's fitness problems.

"Kayce, how is your recovery? Need to adjust the rotation tonight? ”

"My body is back to its best, don't worry, coach, I feel like I can play the full 48 minutes!"

Li Ze showed a smile full of vitality, physical recovery has never been a problem for him, but Durant on the side is relaxed on the surface, and secretly has a lemon in his heart, this kind of talent really makes him envious to death...

"Fitness is not a problem, coach, I'm completely ready!"

Durant also immediately made his attitude clear, signaling that he could continue the rotation strategy of the last game tonight.

"I'm okay, Coach! No need to reduce my rotation time! ”

As a well-known physical monster in the team, Turtle Turtle also said that he was well rested, and the coaching staff saw that the core trio of the Thunder team had no problem, and immediately put their minds at ease, and Coach Brooks also spoke:

"We have to continue the game strategy of the last game, test the referee's blowing scale in the first quarter, respond flexibly after getting on the court, switch defensive mode at any time, be sure to limit the opponent's outside line, tonight, we must protect our home court!"

"Oh!!"

After the Mavericks finished their training session in the morning, in the afternoon, Coach Carlisle discussed the G2 defensive strategy with the assistant coaches, and the results of Game 1 showed that it was difficult for the Mavericks to limit the Thunder's offense with a single defense.

"Rick, in fact, we really don't have a very good way, if you want to limit Lee and Durant, you can only add some pinch shots appropriately, but the Thunder's outside can sometimes play amazing performances."

"Let's continue to defend alone, if the opponent doesn't feel good tonight, we have a good chance to win this game, the Thunder's interior players are not strong in finishing, we can gamble."

Coach Carlisle heard the assistant coach's suggestion, thought about it briefly, and then thought that only Jason Terry and Barria were reliable on the bench, and rookie Rodrigo Boibis couldn't play such a game at all, so he couldn't help but sigh lightly and said in a firm tone:

"We don't change our defensive strategy, we just let the players adjust to their form, even if we lose both away games, but when we come back at home, we still have chances, and the form of the projection team will fluctuate."

"Yes! Back in Dallas, we can also improve our defensive intensity, the opponent's outside line will not be accurate all the time! ”

"That's right! With Dirk here, we're able to score consistently, so there's no need to worry too much. ”

Coach Carlisle heard the assistant coach's self-comfort, and silently vomited in his heart:

"It's really as good as you say, we can win one away game..."

In the evening, the Ford Center turned into a sea of blue again, and the Western Conference semifinals, the Thunder got off to a flying start, so that all the Russian City fans were excited, and if they won the game again tonight, they would go to Dallas with a 2-0 advantage.

Even if they lose all two away games, the battle of Tianwang Mountain, the Thunder can return to the Russian City, the team's margin for error has been greatly improved, and there are even many oversized fans who have begun to discuss the championship...

In the G2 game, everyone in the Thunder team also relaxed a lot, which is also the characteristic of the young team, as long as they are ahead, everyone's state can play, and everyone is brave with the wind!

When the DJ on the scene began to introduce the home team, the fans in the Russian city began to burst into huge cheers, Durant felt the hot atmosphere of the scene, and couldn't help but think of the MVP award he lost.

When the two teams finally warmed up, Li Ze noticed that Durant next to him was a little distracted, and immediately reminded him:

"Kevin, your mother is also here tonight to watch the game, concentrate, you won't watch those gossip news again in the past two days, right?

You will definitely get the MVP in the future! ”

Durant was a little shocked when he heard Li Ze's words, and was guessed correctly, recently the media have been calling for Kobe Bryant to be the one who deserves the award more, and completely ignored him, which also made him a little annoyed in his heart, why does he always get attention?

"I'm fine, Kayce, I'm just thinking about how to get out of Marion's entanglement, this guy's defense is hard to deal with."

"Maybe you need to add some local two-on-two, if you have a chance, pay attention to my movement, the two of us can do some cover appropriately, and we can definitely tear apart the opponent's defense easily."

Durant's eyes lit up after hearing Li Ze's words, and he immediately spoke:

"That's really a good piece of advice, and I've always wanted to suggest to the coaching staff that we add some of our offensive routines, and I think Coach Brooks is a bit conservative!"

"Cool! A simple UCLA cover will do! ”

Li Ze also wants to get his teammates into tailwind mode as soon as possible, so that the game can be easier...

When the referee signaled for the players to come to the centre of the field, Kostic and Dampier stood in the centre circle ready to jump the ball

“OKC！ OKC！ OKC！ ”

"Smack..."

Amid the shouts of the crowd at Ford Center, Kostic jumped to the ball for the Thunder, and the turtle quickly dribbled across the half court and gave the ball directly to Li Ze.

Kostic immediately lifted up the pick-and-roll, the quality of the pick-and-roll was good, and he instantly got rid of Caron Butler's entanglement, and Li Ze took the left hand to accelerate the breakthrough.

Noticing that Dampier on the defensive end didn't go too far forward, after dribbling a step, he made a pull-up jump shot at the top of the arc outside the three-point line.

The three-point shot hollowed into the net.

"Ah!!h

Coach Carlisle on the sidelines heard a loud noise from the crowd at Ford Center, and he thought helplessly:

"Expecting the other party to feel bad? ...”
