Chapter 537: Confused face

In the last three minutes of the first quarter, the offensive on both sides was finally opened.
The Clippers changed into the second team, Griffin played with Livingston and Odom.
The Trail Blazers are a lot more conservative than the previous game. Stotts easily dare not play the main role, Lillard, Batum and others are still on the field.
Only Robin Lopez had an off-court break and replaced Mo Williams, playing a big four or four, hoping to narrow the points in the final quarter of the first quarter.
Rivers is obviously more confident, and the rotation is still relatively loose. Li Liang and Paul are both off duty.
On the Clippers, Griffin has not scored in the first few minutes, even without the phone.
After a few minutes of rest and re-entry, Griffin came up and completed a pick-and-roll with Livingston, hitting a high mid-range jumper.
On the Blazers side, Batum's outside dribble was intercepted by Odom.
Odom passed the ball to Livingston, and Livingston's successful layup also caused a back foul and a penalty!
However, the Blazers quickly recovered, and Stotts replaced Matthews with Will Barton.
After Barton came on the court, he immediately cut the layup and received a high pass from Ade to pass the layup.
Then, Crawford broke the layup with his own ball, the Trail Blazers counterattacked, Will Bard twisted his dribble and rushed to the layup, and the left hand layup made another two points.
This substitution by Stotts is indeed a coincidence. Matthews lacks the ability to impact the basket, and his defense is not strong against the Clippers lineup.
Although Barton is thin, but dare to fight and dare to fight, very impactful.
With Patton, the Blazers stabilized the situation and chased two goals.
At the end of the first quarter, the two sides played 25:27.
Lillard made a buzzer layup at the last minute to help the Blazers trail only two points.
After the start of the second quarter, Lillard and Aldridge both took a break.
The Blazers' main control became Mo Williams.
As in the game, Mo Williams first came to rely on the screen to equalize the scores of both sides with a middle distance.
But the Blazers players haven't had time to recall the feeling of a draw. The Clippers have launched a counterattack. Griffin led the way. Odom dribbled the Blazers' defense and divided the ball to Griffin.
Griffin took the ball straight to the basket, and under the siege of Batum and Button, he forced a layup and scored two points.
Griffin seems to be behind a train, and there is no way to pull behind.
The game between the two sides is generally very civilized, and there are not too many outside moves.
Although the competition is fierce and the action confrontation is relatively expensive, they are relatively clean.
Even Paul is dirty and not obvious, so the game as a whole is smooth and the referee's whistle doesn't ring much.
In this case, the Clippers and the Blazers played another offensive.
Although Stotts is not willing to see such a situation, but there is no way, the Blazers is such a style, he can not use defense and confrontation to break this style.
In fact, the entire league, the only hope for breaking the Clippers style is the Heat; and the only ability to keep up with the Clippers style is the Spurs.
Now there is another accelerator for the Clippers style, that is Odom.
Odom scored 10 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds in the last game, which can be said to be very good.
Rivers is deliberately increasing his playing time, because with him, the Clippers can continue to attack speed.
Of course, the problem is that his defense really doesn't work.
The Blazers also counterattacked, Matthews went straight to the layup and succeeded.
If Jordan and Li Liang are here, Matthews cannot score like this.
However, Odom then misplaced Lopez at a 45-degree trial step. After a dribble and a strong shot to the basket, a small hook in the right hand hit.
Then, Odom got a backcourt rebound, faced Lopez again in a counterattack, and made a small throw in the left hand and hit again!
Odom really felt like he was in this series.
Several offensive and defensive, whether it was a quick push back or an attack by myself, all felt quite the same as when I was in the Lakers.
Odom's own talents and qualities are very good, but he doesn't really care about his body.
Since coming to the Clippers, he has received the baptism and education of the socialist concept of honor and disgrace next to Li Liang. He has understood the eight honors and shame and the scientific development.
On the Blazers' side, Matthews missed a jumper near the free throw line.
Matthews and Harden played against each other in a series and really regarded themselves as Kobe.
In these two games, his one-leg stand-up jump shot was used many times, but he scored a handful of goals.
Thought that against the Clippers, Crawford was so easy to attack?
Crawford's defense is worse, you shoot in front of him, he will reach out to interfere with you will.
Then Odom passed Griffin again in the counterattack, Griffin hit the rim, the layup in the right hand, and also caused a foul by Mo Williams.
The Blazers also wanted to continue to pass the ball to Lopez to score. As a result, Lopez was empty, tall, explosive and terminating. It was impossible to be blocked by the rim again. Lopez was not blocked by the rim in these two games. Cover.
Another Clippers counterattack, Odom dribbled himself to the frontcourt, fully demonstrating his left-handed magician's dribbling skills, dribbling past the defender in the back, and finally a left-hand layup!
The Staples Center gave Odom the warmest cheer, making Odom feel as if he had returned to 5 years ago, also at Staples, when he was wearing a purple gold shirt.
The Blazers paused, and Stotts didn't expect the Clippers to have Odom.
It's good to have more cards in hand. Just play one and Stotts can't feel it.
The difference between the two sides went by another 10 points, but the Blazers still hope that after the main debut, the Blazers can slowly bite the score and then find a chance to restore the situation.
After all, the status of the Clippers tonight is really not good, Paul has scored 2 points so far.
Li Liang, who is in the best condition, thinks that this guy can still score 40 points?
Facts have proved that there is no fluke in playing the game, and the hope of victory is placed on the opponent's poor performance. Although there is no way of helplessness, the final result will be mostly unsatisfactory.
The Clippers' other players are in average condition. For example, Paul, the mid-range feel tonight is really lousy.
Barnes and Jordan didn't feel very good offensively, and the ups and downs were normal.
But Li Liangxin was crowned MVP and was in very good shape.
In fact, with the help of various runes, Li Liang rarely has a bad game.
In the first quarter, Li Liang scored 10 points. After the second quarter suspension, Li Liang re-appeared. He replaced Crawford and was present with Griffin and Odom.
This is a three-forward lineup, Rivers may have listened to Mike Brown's remarks, let Li Liang ran to the center position guest appearance.
Mike Brown is really a thief. He has to fight Li Liang in every position.
Anyway, Robin Lopez was also replaced, and Stotts wanted to make a small lineup and fight on offense.
So the Clippers three-forward lineup is not so strange.
Li Liang really reached the center position to defend Ade.
To be honest, when Adelaide feels good, Li Liang cannot prevent Adelaide.
But Aldridge did not have the kind of expectation in the first round.
The goals were relatively scattered. Although the first game also scored 21 points, it had no impact on the progress of the game and the results.
In the middle of the second quarter, Ade started to take the Blazers forward again. Li Liang defended one-on-one. After Adelaide turned inside, he took advantage of strength and wingspan to squeeze the basket and hit the hook.
The cast is very beautiful.
Then he turned around and was confused by Li Liang's three-pointer.
Ade continued to hold the ball in a low position. After repeated back-testing, he turned back and straightened his back-up jumper. It was very difficult and still hit!
It looks like Ade's state is picking up.
Looking back at the top of the arc, Li Liang Chaoyuan was confused by three points...
Ade looks a little angry!
The Trail Blazers countered, Aldridge received a pass from Lillard in the high position and immediately shot a mid-range jumper!
As a result, the ball was short and Griffin got a rebound in the backcourt.
Then, Li Liang counterattacked an Ade that accelerated past the rush, and after hitting the inside, a 45-degree emergency stop board jumper was hit.
Ade's feeling of accumulating finally seemed to be hollowed out at once.
Li Liang scored 8 points in a row, and the difference between the two sides was opened again.
Stotts is on the sidelines, what is going on?
Is the strength gap between the two sides so big? Can't survive the half game?
The Clippers played Lone Ranger in the first round. In the first half, the Lone Ranger still had a difficult time with the Clippers, and even struggled to the fourth quarter.
The Trail Blazers obviously couldn't hold up at halftime, and Li Liang couldn't do it until the middle of the second quarter.
The shot of this product is really accurate, and unreasonable, the shooter is frightened and numb.
Li Liang is not an offensive kaleidoscope. He makes two fresh moves, or he makes a three-point shot from the outside. If you make a layup, I will break into the inside and stop the jump shot.
As for how you defend me, it has nothing to do with me.
Li Liang has always insisted that "I am the main player". In the offense, how I play is my business, and how you guard against it is your business.
I will not adjust the way I play for your defensive strategy, because other ways I will not play.
It is a pity that the Blazers are not a defensive team. What is more terrifying is that the pace and style of the Blazers are very liked by Li Liang. He is not afraid of anyone who is against him.
There is no high-attack small forward and no flexible defensive coverage inside. This is the configuration that Li Liang fears.
The result was that Li Liang had all his eyes burnt in the second quarter~EbookFREE.me~ After Stotts could not bear it and called for a timeout, Li Liang refused to take a rest on the bench and demanded to finish the second quarter.
In the second quarter, Li Liang made 5 of 7 3-pointers and 4 of 6 2-pointers. There were no free throws, pure points, 25 points!
In the half, Li Liang scored 35 points!
Of course, this is not the credit of Li Liang alone. After all, he is not a clue, and he can't fight a dozen.
Odom's precise assists, Griffin's solid cover, and Crawford's space pull gave Li Liang the most room to play.
He doesn't need to dunk the ball for half a day before throwing it back, but a pick-and-roll can give a chance and an empty cut can get the ball.
The Clippers are getting better and better.
As for Paul? He sat on the bench for the most part, let him rest.
In the second half of garbage time, maybe you can get a little playing time.
