Chapter 701 The Throne Player

The advantage of 10 points is not big, but it is not small.

For the Cavaliers, it hurts that they played very well in the first half.

Although the offensive end scored relatively few points, this was their strategy. The rounds were compressed more, and the Pacers were not given a chance to play fast.

On the defensive end, the Cavaliers' strategies were also executed well, and Granger, JR-Smith and others played quite well.

But looking up the game, trailing by 10 points...

Why, Li Liang still couldn't restrain this point.

This guy unknowingly scored another 20 points in the first half.

If you want to talk about how gorgeous he played, he didn't. After the game, the highlights will only be a few three-pointers. (Now NBA postgame highlights are about to become three-point collections.)

But looking at the statistics, I always feel that this guy has scored a lot of points without knowing it, and the hit rate is quite high.

This high efficiency caused Li Liang to play a considerable role in the outcome.

In the second half, the Cavaliers had to find a way to defend Li Liang.

During the halftime break, Blatter frowned in the locker room, discussing the tactics for the second half with the coaching staff and players.

Blatter tried to motivate the players, but the effect was not very obvious. He is not a chicken soup, speech coach.

He yelled, but the effect was not as good as James standing up and saying a few words.

But James just sat on the bench drinking water and had nothing to say.

This is only the first game, and James feels that it is not time to say something to encourage everyone.

Moreover, the atmosphere in the Cavaliers is still very united and motivated, closely surrounding the throne with James as the core, striving to achieve the goal of the first championship in Cleveland history.

In order to achieve this goal, the biggest contradiction that James and the Cavaliers face is Bruce Lee, who puts the throne in his hands and plays casually, and his axis of evil.

If he still can't beat Li Liang's team this time, then James is likely to face a problem: his team will be in the primary stage of not winning a championship for a long time.

Of course, the game has to be played game by game, and a first half will not make James give up.

Just thinking back, the guy's left-handed breakthrough in the first half was really unexpected.

Could it be that he has developed his left hand so quickly?

Or is it just a coincidence.

But if it's a coincidence, why does he use his left hand when making free throws?

And still scored.

This doesn't feel like a coincidence, but a demonstration.

James took a breath and took another big sip of water to calm down his mind.

The second quarter will start soon.

...

In another locker room at the stadium, the atmosphere was completely different.

Li Liang looked very happy, bragging to the team how good his left hand is.

Everyone didn't believe it, saying that Li Liang was just lucky and just threw one in.

Of course Li Liang had various verbal fights with them, but he was still very calm and didn't say, "I scored with my left hand in the second half."

He can indeed do it, but it is indeed too exaggerated, and it is easy to be used and targeted by opponents.

As a secret weapon, it should be hidden.

So it's okay to talk.

Bird stood up and said something fair at this time, "I believe in Bruce, I believe he can do it, because I have done it too."

Li Liang looked at Bird, are you praising me or yourself? Are you speaking for justice?

The fifteen minutes of the Pacers' intermission passed so easily and happily.

There's no vibe of anxiety, but there's no sense of complacency either.

With Bruce Lee around, it feels solid and progressive.

This may be the characteristic of players born in socialist countries, with their own positive energy aura.

At the end of the intermission, the two sides returned to the court, and the third quarter was about to begin.

To relax off the court is to relax, and to talk about it is to talk about it. Li Liang still has his own plan in his heart about how to play in the second half.

As in the first half, the team facing James still said the same thing, beat them to death early with a stick, and don't delay until the end of the fourth quarter.

It's really hard to say who will win at the last moment.

Because the Cavaliers' three-point advantage on the outside is really not in vain.

At the beginning of the third quarter, George Hill made a fake pass to McGee at the basket after shaking Irving away with a fake move in the middle, and succeeded in the alley-oop.

Li Liang thought to himself, with this defensive arrangement, Blatter did nothing during the halftime break.

Throughout the first half, apart from Li Liang, the Pacers played best, Hill was the rest.

Hill, who played poorly in the last round, played brilliantly against Irving this round.

All kinds of passes with the ball are basically passed in one step, and then the teammates behind him come to help Owen wipe his ass.

Once this happens, the Pacers' offense will have room and leeway.

If it weren't for the fact that the rest of the Cavaliers defended well, the point difference in the first half must have been more than 10 points.

By the end of the second quarter, Blatter had already chosen to let George switch to defend Hill, but for some reason, Irving was still the main defense at the beginning of the third quarter, but Hill immediately seized the opportunity to assist.

Then, the Pacers showed their great resilience on the defensive end.

James first missed a mid-range jumper on the right, Mozgov pulled out the rebound, George got the ball from the outside, and it was completely empty.

A wide-open three-point opportunity, but George didn't make a three-pointer.

The ball hit the neck of the basket and bounced far away. It was still the Cavaliers' ball.

As a result, the Pacers abruptly prevented the Cavaliers from a 24-second offensive violation.

Two offensive rebounds and three offenses were given to you, but you couldn't score a goal. It really gave you a chance and you were useless.

Immediately behind the basket, Li Liang received a pass from JR-Smith and pushed James away, resulting in a blocking foul by James.

This can be regarded as Li Liang's atypical goal. After the pick-and-roll from outside the three-point line, he went down and tore apart the Cavaliers' defense very well.

James also wanted to make Li Liang an offensive foul, but the referee took care of the Pacers at the beginning of the third quarter.

Two free throws were made, and the point difference was widened to 14 points. The situation is not good for the Cavaliers.

James seemed a little impatient in the offense at this time. He received a pass from Irving on the left three-point line and made a three-pointer, but slipped out of the basket.

McGee protected the backcourt rebounds and prevented the Cavaliers from grabbing the ball inside.

McGee immediately handed the ball to Li Liang. Li Liang accelerated with the ball and killed all the way through the half court.

The man who fouled this time was Tristan Thompson.

Li Liang continued to the free throw line.

This makes people a little puzzled.

Li Liang used to lead the opponent away with a series of three-pointers at the beginning of the second half.

It's a good day, Harden is possessed, and a series of free throws will give the Cavaliers a mustache.

The Cavaliers coach was a little anxious. Li Liang made two free throws again. The third quarter started with a 6-0 score and the point difference widened to 16 points.

Do you want to call timeout?

Without calling a timeout, James pressed his hand towards the sidelines.

Blatter hugged his chest and wandered on the boundary line, while Tyronn Lue yelled from the sidelines, making everyone focus.

The camera is shown on the sidelines, giving the impression that Tyronn Lue is more like a Cavaliers coach, while Blatt is like a person on the technical table.

James no longer shoots. At this time, he still has to show his unique skills.

After accelerating, he forced the basket and made a layup, which caused McGee's foul.

The impact of James' breakthrough is still huge, and it is impossible for Li Liang to completely prevent it.

In this game, Li Liang was basically against James. I was close to the shot and strongly interfered. If he made a breakthrough, he might as well let it go.

This defensive method is indeed different from the usual "casting and not letting go".

But Li Liang's ideas are always different.

He felt that he couldn't raise James' touch.

James' shooting this year is actually not bad, once the touch comes, he shoots through the audience.

As for his breakthrough, Li Liang feels that if he maintains a large enough advantage, James' breakthrough may not necessarily cause waves in the final period.

Moreover, too many breakthroughs were used in the front, and the speed will drop at a critical moment.

James himself actually knows this, and he also wants to float outside and shoot shots to score points.

But there is no way, if you can't make a shot, if you don't break through and score, the point difference will get worse.

The extra penalty hit, 64:51, stabilized a little.

However, Li Liang seemed to have discussed it with the referee.

After 45 degrees on the left and Hill's pick-and-roll, he still went down. After the fake move shook Thompson away, the shot caused Thompson's foul again!

Thompson was speechless.

But no way, the ball was a real foul, Li Liang was hit by the falling Thompson, and he flew out.

Consecutive fouls, this style is indeed not like Li Liang.

But this is the playoffs, winning is the most important thing, it doesn't matter if it's style or not.

Two free throws still hit.

The reason why Li Liang made fouls and free throws was actually mainly to improve his touch.
