Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems

At 7:00 p.m. on May 25th, the third round of the Los Angeles Lakers and Thunder kicked off at the Ford Center in Oklahoma City.

Tonight's Ford Sports Center is a blue ocean, and the Thunder sent a blue T-shirt to every fan in Oklahoma City without exception.

One good thing about being a Thunder fan is that you don't have to worry about T-shirts all year round, and the team often distributes them.

In a small city like this, the fans are often very crazy.

Thunder, Jazz, Nuggets, residents of the Midwest don't have much other entertainment, and watching sports is one of life's great pleasures.

Therefore, they will do everything they can to support the team.

Unlike New York, an international city, people don't go to Madison to watch the Knicks win, but as a social activity.

Win or lose doesn't matter, what matters is that you go to Madison tonight.

So New York has never had to worry about selling tickets, no matter its grades are good or bad.

Even if they haven't won a championship in 40 years.

Ford Center is different, where for the Lakers, everyone is against you, except your teammates.

The opening ceremony is over, and the game is about to start.

The Lakers starters took off their sports jackets and were ready to go on stage.

Mike - Brown is doing the final instructions, and in the playoffs he is talking like an old mother.

Brown stepped forward and patted Li Liang, saying: "Young man, I feel that you are in good spirits, please work hard."

Today Li Liang feels full of energy all day long, and he is full of energy during training.

Mike Brown felt a little unbelievable, thinking that it is good to be young, and he thought of the years when he was young.

Li Liang is indeed full of energy. He is full of fighting spirit now, and he just wants to finish the game early and return to the hotel.

Zhu Shu didn't come to the game tonight because she couldn't buy a ticket. She must be watching the live broadcast at the hotel.

Howard and Perkins stood in the middle circle, the two sides jumped the ball, and the game began.

Howard took the lead in getting the ball, and the Lakers started their first offense.

After the first two battles, Mike Brown and Brooks began to enter the confrontation mode from seeing each other.

Based on the summary of the previous two games, both sides must have made new arrangements and adjustments.

The Thunder will definitely step up their protection for Durant.

Durant was troubled by fouls in the last game, and the game was played intermittently.

Even so, Durant still scored 25 points, his scoring ability is evident.

After the game started, Brooks didn't dare to let him defend Kobe anymore, and continued to maintain normal defensive matchups.

On the Lakers side, the main control became Nash again, but the main attack at the beginning became Howard.

In the last game, Howard's role in the interior was undoubtedly revealed. His finishing ability and second offensive ability caused great trouble for the Thunder.

Brown must make good use of Howard this point.

Howard was basically dormant on the offensive end in the second half of the regular season, and there were few offensive tactics around him.

In the playoffs, as the game progresses, Howard needs to develop this point.

Howard asked for the ball in the low post on the left, and Perkins was of course the top defense.

Nash handed the ball to Ci Shiping, and Ci Shiping lobbed it to Howard at 45 degrees.

This is the most comfortable point for Howard to catch the ball. After Howard received the ball, he immediately turned to the basket.

He knew that he couldn't stand up to Perkins with his back, and he needed speed and explosive power to deal with Perkins.

Howard dribbled the ball across the middle, slumped his shoulders inward, and then made a hook shot directly at the basket!

But Perkins defended the ball very well, and it was difficult for Howard's shoulders to push against Perkins. He was not heavy enough, and his waist strength was not enough.

The hook of the ball was out of the question at all, it didn't touch the basket, and it bounced off the backboard and fell down.

But the rebound was snatched by Li Liang.

The moment Howard shot, Li Liang got under the basket and the ball fell directly into his hands.

This kid is a master at picking up offensive rebounds, what a thief.

After picking up the rebound, Li Liang made a fake move to shake Ibaka behind him.

He knew Ibaka was good at blocking shots, and then he leaned back and caused Ibaka to foul.

Ibaka sighed helplessly and shook his hands, why couldn't he control his legs?

With this ball, Ibaka wanted to give Li Liang a big hat, to kill his spirit.

Unexpectedly, I was fooled again.

Li Liang knew that facing a shot-blocking maniac like Ibaka with strong jumping ability, he must not be afraid to hide.

The more you hide, the easier it is to be blocked. Even if you are not blocked, you will miss the shot in the end.

Instead, take the initiative to find a confrontation, take the initiative to get together, suppress him on the one hand, and draw fouls on the other.

For the Lakers' first shot, Li Liang went to the free throw line.

The entire Ford Center was booed.

Because Li Liang's "appearance" after the game still made the Oklahoma City fans very angry.

Although everyone thinks what he said makes sense, as a Thunder fan, he should express something.

Li Liang was still thinking that if he went to the Ford Center to play a game tonight, there should be a lot of anger points generated.

As a result, there was a lot of booing, and the value of anger was two or three, not much at all.

It seems that Thunder fans also feel that Durant is indeed "a little handsome", which is a hindrance to the team's appearance.

You fans really don't love your idols at all.

If you do this, you will lose your idol.

No matter how loud the boos were, Li Liang made two free throws steadily, helping the Lakers open the scoring first.

The Thunder's offense is still very simple. Westbrook dribbles to the frontcourt, and after a pick-and-roll screen, he just pulls out from outside the three-point line.

Hit!

Three-pointer!

Westbrook got off to a good start.

Then, the Lakers counterattacked, Kobe took the ball from the outside, and three Thunder players surrounded him in an instant.

Kobe passed the ball and took a step in, trying to pass the ball to Metta Shiping on the wing, but was intercepted by the Thunder!

The Thunder's defensive strategy tonight is to encircle and suppress Kobe!

From the beginning, he adopted the encirclement posture, not double-teaming, but blocking Kobe's breakthrough line and passing line.

This is a more commonly used defensive method against Kobe, cutting him off from his teammates.

Although sometimes you don't need to cut, he will cut off the contact by himself.

But in the last game, Kobe made a good connection and broke the Thunder.

Brooks didn't dare to be careless, and focused on defending Kobe at the beginning.

After the steal, Ibaka tossed the ball upfield and Westbrook had already crossed half court.

Then the ball was not passed to Westbrook, and Ibaka was touched by Li Liang when he threw the ball.

The flight path of the ball changed and flew into Nash's hands, and Nash took the ball back.

Now Nash was flat in front of him, and he dribbled the ball straight through the middle.

Ibaka came over to defend, and Westbrook was still rushing back.

Nash passed the ball to Li Liang on the wing with a no-look pass.

Li Liang catches the ball and hits a three-pointer.

In the opening game, Li Liang scored 5 points in a row, made offensive rebounds, made fouls and made free throws, interrupted the Thunder to steal, and made a three-pointer.

In the previous games, no matter the first round or the second round, or the first two games of the Western Conference finals, Li Liang played a very important role.

But judging from the scene, they are all unobtrusive, silently defending, covering, and shooting three-pointers.

The team's light is mainly given to Xuanming and even Howard. After all, his dunks are very explosive and his blocks are very eye-catching.

At the end of the game, when you look at the data, no matter whether it is ordinary data or high-level data, you will find that Li Liang is the extremely important one.

But tonight, Li Hao seems to want to steal the show.
