Chapter 335: Unreasonable Appearance Time (10,000-Word Chapter)

On the evening of May 27, after the G4 of the Western Conference Finals, the Spurs fans broke the defense in the AT Center Arena.

After the loss, everyone was reluctant to leave for a long time, and the situation was good, and in the end, there were only a few free throws left, and they would get the match point and end the series.

No one likes to be beaten and lost, and after the game, in the Spurs locker room, Parker sat in his seat with straight eyes.

Leonard also didn't say a word, the man rarely showed his emotions on the court, but he was a little nervous back in the dressing room.

With a towel over his head, Leonard's eyes were still red, and if he hit both free throws at the end, maybe the two sides would go to overtime.

Considering that the Clippers' Griffin had already left the game with six fouls, Leonard naturally thought that the Spurs would have a huge advantage in overtime, and even, as long as it was dragged into overtime, the team would win.

The free throws that were missed could change the course of the Spurs' series, and every time I think about it, I feel frustrated in my heart.

At the post-game press conference, Popovich seemed very calm, having been in the league for many years, and all kinds of scenes have been experienced by old men.

The strength of the two teams is almost the same, and the details of the game can sometimes make the difference between success and failure.

The ESPN reporter saw the Spurs lose and asked in a mocking tone:

"With the G5 game coming back to Los Angeles, how will the Spurs adjust their defensive strategy? How would you rate Kayce's performance? ”

Although it seems to be light on the surface, Popovich is still a little annoyed when he hears such a question, the other party has won, what else to evaluate.

'I'm very proud of my players, in fact we didn't have a problem executing the tactics and losing the game was just not good enough in the details.

"As for Kayce, he's a superstar in the league, a three-time MVP, and he doesn't need me to judge, he's chasing those great records."

"It's a shame that against a superstar like this, you get punished for making mistakes, but we'll sum up the problem, the series isn't over yet."

Hearing the bad old man's answer, the TNT reporter asked another sensitive topic:

"Coach De Nagro is very dissatisfied with the final decision, thinking that the Spurs have profited too much, how to blow the penalty scale for this game?"

Popovich will not provoke the referee at this time and question the league:

"There were 28 free throws on both sides, there were no problems blowing penalties in this game, the game was very smooth, and the referee team did a great job!"

“.”

This Western Conference Finals is a lot hotter than the previous games.

In the Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat almost crushed the Pacers, the series was unremarkable, and fans had enough of the Big Three's script.

In the previous Western Conference Finals, the two sides could be regarded as technical knockouts of each other, coupled with the Spurs' large number of personnel rotation, there was no star matchup, the star flavor was insufficient, and the fans didn't like it very much.

However, G4's high score and lore finally stimulated most fans, and after the game, the INS released by the NBA League, Li Ze's data was once again frantically forwarded by fans.

In addition to Li Ze's detonation of social media, Durant's Twitter is also on fire.

Perhaps due to being eliminated by the Spurs and returning home, Durant, who fished in Russia, was exceptionally active on Twitter.

Durant tweeted before the game:

"Spurs make mistakes! Kayce will be racing with a middle distance lore! ”

As a result, Li Ze did kill the Spurs, and when the gambling dogs saw Durant's tweet, they immediately beat their chests with regret.

O great prophet! Durant really knows the ball!

Li Ze was killed, and Durant's Twitter was on the hot search.

Fans soon discovered that Durant, who was fishing home, seemed to be addicted to Twitter commentary, and his predictions were quite accurate, that is, when he encountered trolls, he did not act like a big star, and often directly attacked each other.

Some fans seriously suspect that there are a bunch of trolls behind Durant who support him, as long as the group starts, it is often a large number of people who follow Durant to spray together, and the keyboard power is simply off the charts.

Li Ze, who returned to Los Angeles with the team on the 28th, naturally also saw Durant, who was extremely active on Twitter.

Seeing that below the comment area, a fan who questioned Durant's championship was sprayed by a bunch of people, and the corners of Li Ze's mouth twitched.

At that time, he suggested that Durant form a fan group, thinking that the guy would be fresh for two and a half days, but now it seems that the keyboard warrior who is good at playing ball really sticks to it.

After returning to Los Angeles, the coaching staff immediately announced a day off, ended two consecutive away games, and took back the initiative, which also made everyone completely relaxed.

Married and went home to accompany his wife, Griffin recently had an awkward relationship with his girlfriend, so he took the opportunity to stay with Li Ze for a day.

The surface brothers looked at Li Ze's achievement room full of various trophies, and their eyes were green with envy, and the three championship rings, three MVP trophies and FMVP trophies were even more eye-catching.

The trophy of the scoring champion is displayed separately, and the weekly and monthly best of the crystal cup are placed on the other side at will, and when he sees these awards, Griffin immediately possesses lemon essence, and he also wants to be the boss and reap the honor!

Durant won the MVP trophy after Li Ze left the Thunder, and he also won a lot of the best of the week and the best of the month, and the somewhat inflated Griffin always felt that he should also win some awards.

The best team can no longer satisfy Griffin, who has won the championship, with a big contract, money and championships, he wants to improve his historical status!

Li Ze, who left the study, finally found that Griffin was still looking at the trophy in the achievement room, and immediately said with a smile:

"You're the same as Chris, every time you come to me, you always hold on to these trophies to see if you can't get enough!"

Griffin grabbed the little bronze man of MVP, had a lemon in his heart, and said in a rather emotional tone:

"I don't think anyone who plays in the NBA will ever get enough of these awards."

Seeing Li Ze's indifferent appearance, Griffin said in a sour tone:

'Seriously, I didn't like the way Chris handled the ball at the end last night, it was clear that he wanted to show himself and he missed a penalty.

"Of course, the previous round was my problem, and if I had hit both free throws, maybe we would have won the game."

Li Ze knew too well about his teammates' careful thoughts, he was not a hairy boy, he sat on the sofa casually, and said without any care:

"Blake, I'm not like an All-Star, the stats don't mean much to me, it doesn't matter what the performance is when it matters, all I want is the championship, which is the victory!"

"Don't forget that Chris was the boss of the Clippers before! It's normal for him to have such thoughts. ”

As soon as Griffin heard this, the dead duck's mouth stiffened, and he immediately retorted:

"I didn't admit that he was the boss, I was the top player on the Clippers when Gordon was still on the team, and Chris just came in air."

Seeing that the surface brothers still didn't admit it, Li Ze waved his hand, and then continued:

'Everybody wants to show themselves and that's certainly true, but as long as the team wins, that's enough for me.

"I don't mind giving the ball away, as long as I get 20 shots, it's easy for me to score 30 points a game."

"So what I'm concerned about is internal unity, we have to work hard and even if we give Chris 20 shots, he's not going to be better than me in terms of stats, and he understands that."

Griffin wanted to refute again, and suddenly remembered that during the Thunder period, Li Ze and Durant had almost the same ball, and then he was suppressed in terms of data throughout the whole process.

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that Paul is far from a super scorer like Durant.

When he thought of these again, Griffin also reacted, replaced Paul with him, and gave him enough power, but he also couldn't brush Li Ze, as long as he reached the finals and won the championship, the final honor would definitely be Li Ze's.

Seeing the other party's stunned appearance, Li Ze got up and patted Griffin on the shoulder with a smile, and then said encouragingly:

"I've never cared about data, and I'm not interested in data, so don't worry, Bro, play next to me, as long as it's in good shape, and the data is not a problem, you can rest assured that you can boldly pursue data!"

"And what I want is very simple, three trophies are too few, don't you think this achievement room is empty? More trophies are needed here. ”

Griffin, who came back to his senses, saw the layout of this room, and felt that there was no problem in putting down 7 more trophies, and when he heard Li Ze's words that he was not interested in data, he was even more powerless to complain in his heart:

"Not interested in data? So how did all the trophies in this room come about?"

On the evening of the 28th, in the Eastern Conference Finals G5, Ameika's ball critics agreed that the Heat would win the game in one go.

But the Pacers, who returned to their home court, stubbornly pulled one back again.

At 90:93, relying on Paul George's excellent play, the Pacers defeated their opponents with difficulty, and the series still maintained suspense.

Paul George was 15-of-28 from the field, including 5-of-14 from three-point range and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line, for 37 points, six rebounds, two assists, six steals and three turnovers.

While most of the sports media are optimistic that the Heat will make the cut, they are not stingy with praise for Paul George's performance.

Coach Spo was very unhappy, and LeBron James had physical problems and a tight back in this game, but that was not a reason for the Heat to only make eight free throws in the game.

The Heat shot nearly 50% from the field on 15-of-31 from beyond the three-point line, but if they made a few more free throws, even if James was injured, Coach Spo was confident that he would lead the team to victory.

However, the referee also had a reason, he did not give the Pacers too many free throws, 13-of-22, and the Pacers only won by six points on free throws.

Losing is definitely your star player!

In the post-game press conference, Coach Vogel praised the team's rebounding and turnover-control ability, and Coach Spo fired straight ahead:

"I hope the league can unify the blowing penalty standard, I don't want to emphasize the blowing penalty after every game, but on the stage of the Eastern Conference Finals, I hope that the refereeing part of the subsequent game will be taken seriously."

Due to LeBron James's physical discomfort, the Big Three performed mediocre.

Bosh was 9-of-21 from the field and 2-of-7 from three-point range for 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers, while Wade was 7-of-14 from the field, including 2-of-3 from three-point range and 2-of-2 from the free-throw line, finishing with 18 points, 4 rebounds and 6 turnovers.

LeBron James played 24 minutes, shooting 2-of-10, including 1-of-3 from three-point range and 2-of-3 from the free-throw line, to finish with seven points, two rebounds, four assists, one block and three turnovers.

Heat fans frantically complained about free throws on Reddit after the game, and unanimously agreed that the league didn't want to face for the sake of ratings!

Pacers fans applauded, that's the price of three All-Stars! I want you to punish you to death!

On the afternoon of the 29th, Clippers fans came to the Staples arena early, and many fun fans also followed the trend.

As the Clippers' performance is getting better and better, there are naturally more wins in the world, but many Lakers fans are not used to the Clippers, the former fish belly of the same city.

Lakers fans with a sense of superiority will not forget to ridicule the Clippers for turning over and taking shit luck even if they come to the Clippers to watch the game.

Then some Clippers fans were naturally dissatisfied and directly mocked on the street:

"In the next five years, the Lakers will definitely not make the playoffs! Who is the belly team in Los Angeles? ”

Lakers fans who broke the defense a little immediately retorted:

"What if you don't make the playoffs? We have 16 championships! ”

"What's the use of 16 championships? The operation of the Bass family now is shit! Where did your F4 go? Kobe Bryant is also out of breath! Now the superstar of Los Angeles is Kayce! ”

Before the game began, the fans in Los Angeles went into infighting on their own.

Fox Sports, as the local broadcaster of the Clippers, had such a situation that it almost wanted to set up a ring directly outside Staples Arena, just in time for the cushion game of tonight's game.

Coupled with the fanning of the reporters on the spot, many fans even forgot that tonight's opponent was the Spurs.

The Clippers didn't know that the fans outside the court took the lead in starting the tearing battle, and Coach De Nagro made another lineup adjustment tonight, and Li Ze will become the starting No. 3 position, with the aim of limiting Leonard's play.

The Spurs' silent forward went on 10-of-19 shooting and 3-of-4 from the free-throw line to finish with 26 points, seven rebounds and five assists without a single turnover.

Two consecutive excellent performances also made the coaching staff finally pay attention to it, plus Danny Green seemed to have a bad hand, and it was a bit overkill to use Li Ze to defend, so the Clippers made a change of formation.

"Kayce, play a few more pick-and-rolls after the opening, the Spurs' twin towers are slow to defend, watch out for opportunities on the outside."

"Allen, the cover of the free throw line, be quick to play outside after dismantling, and shoot it yourself."

Coach De Nagro writes and draws on the whiteboard in the dressing room to explain what to expect tonight.

Li Ze hit the No. 3 position, and some cover-and-catch shooting tactics were thrown on Ray Allen's head.

Despite his mediocre form in the first few games, the De Nagro manager still has faith in the veteran.

Everyone in the Clippers team looked serious, tonight's game cannot be lost, and for the tactical arrangement, in fact, everyone also knows it, in the regular season, the Clippers have played a lot of routines, and there is no big problem with changing tactics at this time.

Barnes has an average catch-and-shoot percentage, and many times, the veteran prefers to cut into the breakaway, so when Li Ze is partnered with him, he focuses more on projection and plays less on the breakout.

Replacing Ray Allen, adding some breakaway ratios and creating some shots for the veteran is not much of a problem for Li Ze.

In the player tunnel, everyone in the Clippers team can feel the fiery atmosphere of the scene, and the battle of Tianwang Mountain has made more Clippers fans choose to watch the game on the spot.

"Shoot them! Win the game! ”

In the player's tunnel, Li Ze took advantage of the situation and simply bumped fists with Ray Allen, the veteran still looked calm, and when he heard Li Ze's words, he just smiled and said:

"I don't want to lose to the young man on the other side!"

“.”

Shortly after the start of the first quarter of the game, Danny Green was overjoyed, and after four rounds, he finally confirmed that Li Ze was no longer playing against him in this game!

In this round of Spurs' offense, Danny Green confidently completed a hand-to-hand with Duncan on the right wing outside the three-point line.

Then he was chasing Ray Allen, breaking through the middle, and then throwing a light right-handed shot in the paint zone!

"Huh!" Two-point shot hollow into the net!

Staples Arena immediately erupted in boos, and at 8:9, the Spurs opened the offensive state well.

“ Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! ”

In the rhythmic cheering of the fans, Paul, who had dribbled past half the court, immediately handed hands to Li Ze in the logo position.

Quickly moved to the left flank, and when he continued to move to the bottom left corner, he signaled Jordan Jr. to give Li Ze a block and dismantle cover.

The logo position, away from the three-point line, allowed Leonard to leave a small step for Li Ze.

Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand, noticed that Ray Allen had stood on the free throw line, and at the same time, Jordan Jr. also came to the top of the arc, and immediately lowered his center of gravity and feigned a breakthrough.

The body shook to the right, then suddenly dribbled under the crotch, then twice extremely fast back dribbles, and after shaking left and right, the right hand suddenly accelerated with all its might.

Leonard had just taken a quick sliding step to the left back, and Li Ze, who had dribbled two big steps, suddenly changed direction sharply in front of him, and then held the ball in his left hand, pretending to take Jordan Jr.'s left block.

Leonard instantly defended closely, and Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, immediately wrapped the ball around his back sharply, and then stuck to Jordan Jr.'s body, and accelerated the breakthrough with the ball in his right hand.

Jordan Jr., who completed the cover, immediately went down, and Ray Allen at the free-throw line took the lead to cover, delaying Split's defense, and then quickly bounced outside the three-point line to the left wing.

Danny Green noticed that Leonard's defense was a step slower, and just wanted to go up to help defend Li Ze, and noticed that Ray Allen had bounced outside the three-point line, and at the moment of hesitation, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand and accelerating to break through, suddenly jumped up and threw the ball at the right elbow area of the free throw line.

When the ball arrived, Ray Allen just stood outside the three-point line, immediately received Li Ze's pass, noticed that Danny Green's defense did not keep up, calmly adjusted, and then made an easy jump shot outside the three-point line!

"Huh!" Three-pointers hollow into the net.

Hitting a three-pointer easily, veteran Ray Allen smiled slightly and gave Li Ze a thumbs up.

The fans at the scene also cheered loudly, and for two consecutive rounds and the same tactics, the Clippers scored easily.

Coach Popovich on the sidelines is a bit big-headed, and the Clippers' blocking and dismantling are mostly three-person cooperation.

However, due to the Clippers' outside hand pulling in the first few games, Li Ze was mostly responsible for finishing, so there were very few tactical changes, anyway, they were all blocking and dismantling, and Paul gave the ball to Li Ze, or to Griffin, who went down.

It's very easy for the defensive end to fix the routine, but after surviving G4, the Clippers' role players are alive again

Popovich naturally knew that Duncan, who played 39 minutes in the last game, was in average physical condition, and when he saw that the Clippers' offense was getting smoother and smoother, he immediately stood on the sidelines and gestured to his players.

“Defense! Defense! Defense! ”

Tony Parker, who dribbled past half court, was annoyed by Paul's small movements.

Back at home, Paul's defense was also unleashed, and in San Antonio, some fouls were blown out of trouble tonight.

Parker, who accelerated with the ball in his left hand, was secretly pulled by Paul's jersey, and after the two collided, he was almost directly picked up by Paul's right hand.

The pace slowed down again, and the ball protector slapped Paul away from the harassment and got close to the top of the arc, and Parker immediately gave the ball to Duncan in the elbow area on the right side of the free throw line.

Under the twin-tower lineup, the Spurs also had less cover, and Li Ze was watching Duncan's movements while aiming at Leonard in the bottom right corner.

There was a step between the two, and Leonard first moved towards the line, then feigned to run back to the baseline, and finally accelerated with all his strength and quickly rushed to Duncan's side.

Li Ze didn't shake at all, and at the moment when Leonard just received a hand-handed pass, Duncan's cover was opened by Li Ze with his shoulder and squeezed through hard.

With the ball in his left hand, Leonard felt the pressure on his side, and the breakout speed immediately slowed down, and although he noticed that Duncan had begun to go down, Jordan Jr. raised his hands to help defend it.

wanted to play the ball, but was afraid of mistakes, and at the moment of hesitation, Leonard was pressed by Li Ze's defense to stop the ball, and the next second, Li Ze, who saw the opportunity, dragged the ball away from Leonard's arms.

"Oh!"

The Clippers fans cheered excitedly, and the steal with great visual impact, Li Ze was like a robbery, dragging Leonard to a stumbling side.

Leonard, who lost his body's center of gravity, didn't have time to chase after him, and Li Ze rushed through the half court in a frenzied acceleration.

Aiming at the absence of any defenders behind him, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand, rushed to the paint area, jumped with both feet, and quickly took off.

The head frame is in the air for a short time, stretch your body, easily complete the crotch hand, and then smash the ball into the basket with your left hand!

"Boom!" The crotch changes hands and the buckle is successful!

The Clippers fans shouted excitedly and dunked wonderfully, which instantly ignited the atmosphere of the scene.

After landing on the ground, Li Ze also screamed passionately, pounded his chest at the camera under the basket, and played at home, pretending to be X more atmospheric!

When the score reached 8:14, Coach Popovich immediately called a timeout.

The Spurs' coaching staff is a bit numb, and it's still an old question, once Duncan is in average form, who will act as a consistent scoring point for the team, and in such a crucial game, it is difficult to expect role players to suddenly explode under pressure.

After the timeout, the Spurs replaced Split and took on Dio, adding people who can handle the ball in an attempt to strengthen the offense.

After coming on the court, Dior was very active, frequently receiving the ball on the outside, responding in the center, noticing that Danny Green, who quickly slipped past the baseline and bounced outside the three-point line, had an opportunity and sent a pass at the first time.

After receiving the ball, don't make too many adjustments, on the right wing, Danny Green throws the ball when he gets it!

"Bang!" Hit the nail in a rage!

The ball popped up, and Li Ze stuck Leonard, who rushed to the basket, behind him, and finally successfully protected the backcourt rebound.

Danny Green, who was striking the iron, scolded secretly, and then hurriedly retreated, Li Ze did not choose to speed up, but after a tactical gesture, he pressed for 8 seconds and dribbled through the half.

Dio saw that Griffin was about to go up to block and at the same time Ray Allen stood on the free throw line again, and immediately reminded Danny Green loudly:

"Chase it out!"

At this time, Li Ze, who had passed the half, suddenly picked up, and Griffin immediately went down after fake cover.

Li Ze, who suddenly accelerated with the ball in his right hand, stuck Leonard's half of his body, approached the right elbow area of the free throw line and suddenly slowed down, and with a flick of his right wrist, he made a feint of hitting the ground and passing.

Dior and Leonard's defense was stunned at the same time, and the next second they saw that the ball was still in Li Ze's hand, Leonard wanted to defend again, and Li Ze, who was in a hurry, was already one position ahead, easily broke through to the basket, and picked up the basket's hand along the way!

"Wonderful! Kayce read the defense, and the Clippers' abrupt change of tactics seemed to catch the Spurs a little off guard. ”

Jeff Van Gundy noticed that after Li Ze handed out three assists after the opening, the Spurs' defense began to hesitate, and as a result, they are now beaten 7-0.

When the score reached 8:16, Popovich was so anxious that he walked back and forth on the sidelines, constantly reminding his players to stay focused.

The offensive routine didn't work, and team basketball eventually became a superstar single, with Duncan in the left low post and Jordan Jr. successfully helping the Spurs stabilize the situation.

When the Clippers attacked, Li Ze, who continued to hold the ball, immediately smoked in the bottom left corner to help the team open up offensive space.

Paul also played the same tactic, using Griffin's high cover, accelerating the breakthrough with the ball in his left hand, and Ray Allen at the free throw line gave a solid upper screen, making the defending Dio immediately slow down by half a beat.

Danny Green's attention was all drawn to Ray Allen, who bounced to the right wing, but Griffin went down the middle unguarded, received a pass from Paul, and just wanted to make an aerial relay, but was dragged down by Duncan, who assisted in the defense.

"Shet!"

Griffin, who almost threw himself on the street, scolded directly, stood up and wanted to find a theory, and saw Duncan turn his head and stand on the side of the paint area, and by the way, he made a free throw gesture, and the surface brother was almost blown up.

Dio hugged Griffin tightly, and the players on both sides almost tore apart, and Paul went up and dragged Griffin back as soon as possible:

"Calm down! Get the ball in and we're on the verge of double digits! ”

The surface brother calmed down at this time, and when he returned to the home court, he also wanted to show himself, but he was almost made by the old man Deng Ding.

On the edge of Li Ze's paint area, he clapped his hands and signaled his teammates to calm down.

Griffin, who stood at the free throw line, took a deep breath and hit two free throws steadily!

At 10:18, the margin returned to 8 points, and the Spurs' offense was piecemeal, with Duncan, Parker, and Dior helping the team score points.

On the Clippers' side, Li Ze and Paul continued to block and dismantle, and they had to send cakes instead of scoring.

The same routine kept scoring, including Li Ze, who was holding the ball, and after Paul responded, he began to impact the inside line and wait for a foul.

After returning to the home court, Jordan Jr., who was in good shape, fought for rebounds more ferociously, and Duncan was still old after all, and after losing two backcourt rebounds, Popovich replaced Ginobili and Split.

With 1:16 left in the first quarter, Danny Green, who was substituted off the court, sat on the bench depressedly, and the Clippers' interior athleticism exploded, and the previous breakaway shots sometimes didn't work.

The two teams played four games, and both sides were fully adapted to each other's style of play, and Danny Green, who didn't get many opportunities, felt that he had to follow the same path as his predecessors, and his next contract might be devalued

Head coach De Nagro replaced Paul with Crawford late in the first quarter and continued to maintain a point of contact on the outside.

After Paul went off the court, Parker finally came alive, this time using Split's block, holding the ball to the inside, and the gyroscopic turned to help the Spurs score again.

"Retreat! Retreat! ”

Coach Popovich reminded his players loudly on the sidelines that at 21:27, they can't narrow the gap if they can't prevent it.

This time, Li Ze quickly dribbled the ball across the half court with his left hand, and when he was close to the three-point line, Jordan Jr. immediately stepped forward to cover, and immediately went down after fake cover.

Split didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly chased Jordan Jr. to complete the defense, Li Ze rubbed Leonard's defensive attention and was attracted by Jordan Jr.'s cover, first raised his center of gravity and half-turned to feint, and then suddenly accelerated to break through.

Outside the three-point line, the left wing cut directly in, and Li Ze carried Leonard to the left blocking area.

Noticing that Li Ze was moving suddenly slowed down, suddenly turned his back, took his right foot as the axis, and pulled the ball back sharply with his left hand, Leonard, who broke the defense, overreacted and directly chose to foul.

"Squeak!"

The referee's whistle blew and signaled Li Ze to make two free throws.

In the cheers of the fans at the scene, Li Ze hit two free throws steadily, and Coach Popovich was a little dissatisfied with Leonard's defense, but in the end he could only sigh helplessly.

Twin tower lineup, guaranteed rebounding, after Dio went off the court, in addition to Parker's offense, Leonard also got a lot of opportunities.

At the left elbow of the free throw line, Duncan noticed Leonard running back and cut in and immediately sent a through ball.

After Leonard, who cut into the left flank, received the pass, he was immediately pressed by Li Ze, who was chasing after him.

In the middle of the march, Leonard held the ball in his right hand and suddenly turned around, as if he wanted to come to the basket and complete the offense, but at the moment when the ball was exposed, Li Ze, who was not affected by the turn, twisted around and cut the ball vigorously!

"Smack!"

"Ahh

The moment the ball was cut, Leonard screamed, but the referee ignored it, Li Ze took advantage of the situation to control the ball, and then held the ball in his right hand and accelerated.

The sudden loss of the ball made everyone in the Spurs hurriedly retreat, and Leonard did not dare to foul again, so he could only desperately slide to defend and not give Li Ze a chance to shoot easily.

On the right wing, about to approach the three-point line, Li Ze, who broke through quickly, suddenly wrapped the ball behind his right hand sharply, and then quickly changed direction in front of his body, and suddenly stopped and jumped, instantly making Leonard's defense out of position.

The large shaking made Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his right hand, stand against Leonard's posting and complete the breakthrough again.

Seeing that Li Ze was about to approach the paint area, Split, who was retreating, rushed up quickly and crashed directly into Li Ze.

The three of them collided in an instant, and Li Ze casually threw the ball to the basket, and then shouted:

"My bowl!"

"Squeak!"

Hearing the referee's whistle, the ball flew directly to the audience, and Split, who was lying on the floor, breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that there was no 2+1

The fans at the scene were screaming excitedly, Li Ze actually knocked down the big center, and began to shout loudly when he took advantage of the free throws:

“MVP! MVP! MVP! ”

Li Ze, who stood on the free throw line to adjust his breathing, hit two free throws steadily.

At the end of the first quarter, the margin reached double digits, and with Ginobili and Griffin scoring two points each, the first quarter was completely over, and the Clippers managed to take a 10-point lead at 23:33.

"The Clippers' role players are in good shape, and Kayce has successfully led his teammates, making 4 of 6 in the first quarter, 4 of 4 free throws, 12 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, and the performance is very good!"

Jeff Van Gundy didn't go through the process and immediately started blowing, and commentator Mike Brin noticed that Leonard was defended by Li Ze and scored 2 points on free throws, and immediately added:

"The Clippers have also been very good on the defensive end, and of course, the Spurs' bench has been better in the series, and we can expect a little bit of a change from the Spurs in the rotation."

On the Clippers bench, Tyronn Lue looked at Li Ze with a confused expression, he just heard that Li Ze was going to go straight to the court and didn't plan to rest.

thought that Coach De Nagro would not agree, but Tyronn Lue found that the other party nodded with satisfaction, and patted Li Ze on the shoulder as an encouragement.

After the start of the second quarter, Tyronn Lue also figured out that the Spurs' rotation lineup was good, but Li Ze acted as the main attacker of the rotation lineup, so the Clippers' offense could go up a level:

"Learned, learned, learned."

Coach Popovich on the sidelines saw the Clippers' lineup, which was also a question mark, leading by 10 points, and the core players still had no rest?

Mills had just dribbled past half court and was immediately distracted by Lee's defense, with Ginobili coming up to meet and then completing the pick-and-roll with Baynes on the left wing.

Noticing that Little Jordan didn't change his defense at all, Ginobili didn't hesitate at all, and threw it outside the three-point line!

"Bang!" Hit a piece of iron.

The rebounding ball was retracted to the basket and Jordan Jr. was successfully protected, Li Ze immediately stepped forward to catch the ball, and then accelerated with the ball in his right hand and quickly dribbled across the halfcourt.

At this point, the Clippers were almost exclusively defensive, and although Tucker and Barnes sank to the bottom corner, the Spurs' defensive position did shrink around the paint.

Baynes stood on the bottom right of the basket with Jordan Jr., and Dio was near the elbow on the right side of the free throw line, constantly aiming at Tucker in the bottom right corner.

Belinelli stood near the elbow of the free-throw line, staring at Crawford, while Dio curled up on the left near baseline and looked at Barnes.

After Li Ze passed the half, he immediately noticed the defensive position of the Spurs, and Popovich noticed that the situation was not right, and directly asked the bench lineup to put a box-1 to make up for the lack of defensive resources

Ginobili was still looking behind him, keeping an eye out for the Clippers' pick-and-roll.

“ Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! ”

In the rhythmic cheering, Li Ze in the logo position first held the ball in his right hand and slowly moved to the three-point line, Ginobili did not dare to be careless, and quickly adjusted the defensive focus.

Noticing that Mills seemed to want to step forward to help defend, Li Ze, who was at the top of the arc, suddenly pushed the ball sharply and changed direction, instantly lowered the center of gravity of his body, and accelerated with all his strength with the ball in his left hand.

The sudden and large change of direction accelerated, and before Ginobili could react, Li Ze had already run over his defense, and Dio and Baines saw the moment Li Ze rushed into the paint area, and immediately contracted to help defend to the basket.

There were cheers from the fans at the scene, and the two were just about to attack the defense, but they found that Li Ze had already jumped with both feet and took off into the air.

Dio and Baines jumped under the basket at the same time to block it, only to find that Li Ze jumped too high.

Grabbing the ball with one hand with his left hand, pulling his arm back sharply, bending his body and accumulating strength, Li Ze ignored the blocking of the two, and after a short glide, he condescended and directly put the ball into the basket!

"Boom!" Tomahawks are a tyrannical buckle!

"Squeak!"

Dio and Baines stumbled after landing, and Li Ze, who completed the dunk, was not affected in any way, standing under the basket and beating his chest and roaring.

"Oooh!!"

The Staples Arena exploded instantly, the fans screamed, the electric light and flint broke through, and rushing in was a violent buckle, and the visual effects exploded.

"God! The complete crushing of speed and power reminds me of the Westbrook of the Thunder, and suddenly I miss the Thunder team a little, which is the most talented backcourt combination I've ever seen! ”

Commentator Mike Brin was already stupid, one second he was still chatting with Jeff Van Gundy about the rotation lineup of the two sides, and the next second Li Ze exploded the partition, and finally could only sigh as an afterthought.

As Li Zejia hit the penalty, the fans at the scene began to shout wildly:

“Defense! Defense! Clippers”

At 23:36, the Spurs, who were 13 points behind, began to panic, and Ginobili and Mills began to break through with the help of cover.

The Clippers immediately switched defenses when they got to cover, scored two consecutive points, and the block at the No. 5 position allowed the Spurs to keep moving, and the ball was transmitted back and forth on the outside.

When Li Ze switched to Nobili, Baines's cover delayed Li Ze's defense, Jordan Jr. assisted in time, and Ginobili quickly gave the ball to Baines.

Seeing that there was no one under the basket, Baynes, who received the ball, took a step and took off directly, and just wanted to press into the basket, but was attacked by Li Ze, who was chasing behind him.

The fans at the scene saw Li Ze pressing the opponent's dunk on the rebound, and there was another burst of wah-wow-wah.

Li Ze, who controlled the ball, rushed with the ball, and everyone in the Spurs was completely numb and desperately returned to defense.

Everyone rushed across the half court in a swarm, and when they came to the top of the arc and approached the three-point line, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, suddenly changed direction under his crotch, twisted his body, and continued to break through with the ball in his right hand relying on Ginobili's defense.

Ginobili, who retreated, could only be forced to adjust the center of gravity of the defense, and hurriedly slid to the left rear, the two had just passed the three-point line, Li Ze suddenly stopped suddenly, and dribbled vigorously with his right hand, Ginobili was shaken and crooked, completely losing his defensive position.

Li Ze quickly stepped down to dribble, and at the same time retreated, returned to the three-point line, and converted three points at the top of the arc to shoot quickly!

"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!

There was jubilation on the Clippers bench, and Popovich immediately asked for a timeout, but the bad old man couldn't stand it anymore, he didn't talk about martial arts and didn't play according to the routine

The 16-point difference allowed the Spurs to get Duncan and Leonard back early, and Baynes and Belinelli had no choice but to go down.

Griffin, who had been beaten with chicken blood, also quickly appeared, and the Clippers replaced Barnes, leaving Tucker on the court to keep an eye on Leonard full-time and relieve defensive pressure on Li Ze.

In the next few minutes, Li Ze kept an eye on Mills, the Spurs' offense mostly relied on Ginobili to organize, and Leonard did not play well against the stalking Tucker.

The two sides kept scoring, but the Spurs' coaching staff couldn't sit still at all, and the difference just didn't narrow.

Coach De Nagro noticed that Crawford felt good and continued to score points, until after the official timeout, he replaced Paul, and the main lineup all returned.

Paul, who had rested for most of the quarter, just came on the court and began to lead Parker again, and the Spurs' offense passed another circle, and finally Leonard received Duncan's hand at the left elbow area of the free throw line, and then held the ball with his right hand and forced the basket.

Jordan Jr. is very resolute in defense, and everyone in the Clippers knows Leonard's ability to play the ball, and when he plays the game against the opponent's breakthrough, he usually covers the front and back.

Ray Allen, who switched to Leonard, also desperately chased the defense from behind, and under the two shots, Leonard could barely see the frame, and threw the ball to Danny Green on the right wing outside the three-point line in the middle of the line.

The ball was passed too high, and after Danny Green jumped up to catch the ball, he subconsciously pulled the ball back to his chest.

Before he could make a ball protection move, Li Ze saw the opportunity, cut the ball off with his hand, and then grabbed the ball with his right hand and quickly rushed across the halfcourt.

Danny Green desperately chased after him, only to see Li Ze just take a step past the free throw line, take off directly, smash his arm and dunk, and the person was completely numb. Frustration is easy to put into words.

The fans in the stadium began to celebrate wildly, and with 1 minute and 30 seconds left in the first half, the Clippers still led by 13 points at 43:56.

Li Ze, who completed the dunk, smiled and nodded his head with his left hand, indicating that such an offensive routine was too obvious.

Coach Popovich on the sidelines saw that Li Ze was still full of vitality, and couldn't help but curse a few times in his heart.

As the Clippers played with momentum, even Jordan Jr.'s free throws became 1 of 2, and in the last minute or so, Paul gave Griffin and Jordan Jr. cakes in a row, and the Clippers began to stand on the free throw line under the continuous impact.

By the end of the half, Staples Arena was jubilant, and at 49:63, the Clippers entered the second half with a 14-point lead.

"Kayce played the first half, 8-of-12, including 1-of-2 three-pointers, 6-of-6 free throws, 23 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, impeccable performance, but fitness was an issue in the second half!"

Jeff Van Gundy was also stunned, even if he was leading by a big score, Coach De Nagro still did not replace Li Ze

"Maybe that's the Clippers' strategy to get the first half first, and it's been very successful so far!"

Commentator Mike Brin also had some trouble understanding the Clippers' personnel rotation.

At halftime, the two made various predictions, but when the second half of the game began, they were speechless.

8 minutes and 21 seconds into the third quarter of the game, Popovich looked at Li Ze, who was still on the court, and scolded his mother directly in his heart.

With 4 minutes and 46 seconds left in the game, Li Ze was still on the court.

At this time, everyone on the Spurs saw that Li Ze was in the blocking area, withstood Leonard's defense, and after hitting a backward jumper, he completely broke the defense.

Won't this man get tired?

With 1 minute and 24 seconds left in the game, Popovich head coach reluctantly asked for a timeout, completely changed the main team, and announced that he would admit defeat

As Li Ze was replaced and walked to the bench with a smile on his face, the Staples Arena once again resounded with a huge cheer, and the fans began to scream:

“MVP! MVP! MVP! ”

Li Ze raised his hands high, kept high-fiveing the fans at the scene, and just sat on the bench, everyone in the atmosphere group hurriedly handed towels, water bottles, and training clothes.

"Kayce, how do you feel?"

Assistant coach Tyronn Lushi was completely convinced, not only admiring Coach De Nagro's tactics, but also completely convinced of Li Ze's physical fitness.

"No problem, next game, next game, I can still play the whole game!"

Seeing Tyronn Lue's thumbs up, and noticing his teammates' happy shouts, Li Ze looked at the technical statistics and also smiled slightly.

Played 46 minutes, 16 of 24, including 2 of 3 three-pointers, 9 of 10 free throws, 43 points, 11 rebounds, 12 assists, 4 steals, 1 block and 3 turnovers, completely filling the data column!

As the final hum sounded, at 104:119, the Clippers defeated the Spurs with full play, successfully won the battle of Tianwang Mountain, and got the match point.

At the moment of the end of the game, the fans at the scene began to cheer wildly, celebrating the victory of the battle of Tianwang Mountain.

“Wow! We're going to make it to the finals again! ”

Li Ze also grinned and cheered together:

"Travel to San Antonio! Let's end the game! ”
