Chapter 554: Be calm

The second half of the game soon began.
Both sides are almost on the same starting line.
The score of 49:47 is low enough for both parties.
Especially for the Clippers, they averaged 120 points per game in the regular season, and the Trail Blazers opened the last round with even more points.
Breaking 60 in the half and breaking 70 in the first half resulted in no more than 50 points in the game tonight.
Li Liang is indeed extremely efficient, but the Clippers' quick attack hardly hit a few times.
Don't think about fast-break dunks, even wave after wave of three-pointers.
Of course, the Spurs' offense was also not good. In the face of the Clippers' targeted defense, their smooth team cooperation was discounted.
In short, it is still unknown who deer died.
The Spurs took the lead in the second half.
And their attack was blocked from the beginning.
Green broke through to the inside and passed the ball to Duncan in the bull corner. He missed a mid-range jumper.
Green grabbed a backcourt rebound and passed it to Parker. Parker broke the ball and then scored to Split on the bottom line.
Split came in a backhand fishing season and wanted to hit a layup. As a result, the angle of wiping the board wasn't found.
The ball fell to the basket, and Duncan, Split, Griffin, Jordan Jr. grabbed the ball. Duncan picked up the ball and immediately tossed it. He was disturbed by Jordan Jr. and did not score.
In the end, the ball whizzed, flew to Li Liang's feet, and was picked up by Li Liang...
This cargo comes with a halo of suction ball, the ball is always inexplicably in his hand.
The Spurs' coordination of this attack is not bad. Several passes have given the opportunity to pass.
But at the end, it was always a little bit worse.
It's just a little bit that makes all the cooperation in front of the Spurs meaningless.
This is one of the Spurs' most obvious weaknesses and the most common weakness in team basketball. It is the lack of absolute strengths.
This ball was replaced by Duncan before the age of 30. He wouldn't throw the ball when he picked it up under the basket, but would push open Jordan and dunk it directly.
Team basketball with absolute strengths, such as the Chicago Bulls in the last three consecutive years, is really chopping melons and vegetables, and you can easily make opponents.
The Clippers have a good combination of star and team, but they can't be called team basketball.
But the NBA, the star is everything.
Then Li Liang fell when he advanced in midfield and made a mistake...
You are not a real star!
Li Liang dribble dribble this ball too fast, the result is mixed garlic underfoot!
The dribbling level needs to be further improved, especially in terms of acceleration.
The Spurs picked up this opportunity to counterattack. Danny Green received a pass from Leonard. He made a three-point shot on the right side of 45 degrees and still didn't score.
Under the basket, Split grabbed a offensive rebound and was slapped by Jordan Jordan.
From the beginning of the semifinals, Jordan was the Optimus Prime of the Clippers.
Li Liang rushed over to make up for it and grabbed the backcourt rebound.
Real Nima is ashamed, and there may be a loss. If you miss a shot, there are already a lot of mistakes.
After winning the backcourt rebounds, the Clippers finally made a quick counterattack.
Li Liang delivered the ball to Paul, and then flanked quickly. After receiving Paul's pass, he attracted the Spurs' defensive attention outside the three-point line. Then suddenly a straight pass to the basket, Jordan just in the three seconds zone, Catch one-handed dunks!
Then, Duncan's receiving layup was blocked by Griffin from the side!
Duncan, Duncan, you have today, covered by Griffin with an average of 0.5 caps per game.
Griffin's wingspan, straightening, does not necessarily have a head height, he blocks the equivalent of a header ferry, think about how difficult this is.
It can only be said that time is not forgiving, Duncan is 38 years old after all.
After the opening of the second half, the Spurs clearly attacked the Clippers' three-second zone.
Popovich's thinking is correct. With the Clippers constantly changing defenses, it is difficult to find a good mobile phone outside.
Therefore, the inside line should be opened, and the Clippers should be forced to shrink with a strong attack to give the outside line more space to operate.
But the Clippers were very successful in guarding the three-second zone.
The front court composed of Jordan, Li Liang and Griffin, although they cannot be said to be copper walls and iron walls, they are definitely not easy to get through.
After the Clippers opened in the second half, they regained the advantage of the scene with a solid inside defense.
However, the Spurs did not give up their strategy, and still tirelessly attacked inside.
The siege hammer's repeated impact on the city gates finally had some effect. Split got a free throw opportunity in the attack, helping to help the Spurs pull the score closer.
The point difference has been maintained at about 3 to 5 points, the two sides of the opening half of the opening so you come and go, no one can play an offensive attack wave.
Although the Clippers dominated, the Spurs' solid defense prevented Li Liang from letting go of the attack, or he didn't want to let it go.
Leonard is staring at Li Liang.
The Spurs have changed their defensive strategy against Li Liang. They no longer blindly advance in advance, but use zone marking to curb Li Liang's transfer.
By the time Li Liang hit half of the third quarter, he had made five mistakes.
Except for the time when the foot slipped, the other several times were the pass was broken.
But Li Liang did not give up the passing organization. He knew that the Clippers had to fight offense.
Otherwise, the more you beat, the more dead you will be in the fourth quarter.
Griffin is becoming more active inside, because Li Liang and Paul are constantly creating offensive opportunities for Griffin.
In a quick counter-attack, Griffin went down to the rim, Paul scored the ball to Li Liang at the corner, Li Liang quickly passed the ball to Griffin, Griffin wanted a layup, and was split Being hugged and pulled down, he fouled the foul line.
At this time the score of the two sides is 57:54, the Clippers lead the Spurs by three points.
Griffin made free throws while Li Liang and Paul exchanged with each other to determine the team's rhythm.
Popovich sat off the field, his brain turned fast, Li Liang tonight is different from him in the regular season and semi-finals.
Unexpectedly, this guy played so steady, and Popovich was a little surprised.
Li Liang is not only stable, but also very firm in tactical execution.
Never give up the pass because of more mistakes, and give up the overall attack of the Clippers.
This is the same as Kobe. Kobe will never give up because of the iron.
This determined strategy executor is exactly what the old fox like Popovich hates, because there is no way to drive the opponent into the trap.
Popovich wanted to watch Li Liangduo shot and destroy the Clippers' overall attack.
He was confident that if Li Liang attacked with all his strength, he would have a way to contain Li Liang on defense.
Who knows Li Liang played so calmly and efficiently, now he has scored 20 points and sent 7 assists.
The shooting percentage is still 100%, that is, 5 turnovers are slightly dazzling.
On the bench of the Clippers, Rivers held his hands together and sat on the bench, staring at the situation on the field.
Rivers thought nothing.
What can you think of? Didn't you play well?
There is already a brain and a cerebellum on the field. He just concentrates on his buttocks. He doesn't need to think, he just has to wait.
In fact, this was not the case when Rivers first came to the Clippers.
He is the coach of the championship and was born and killed in the Clippers. He has the ambition to create his own coaching brilliance here.
Then Li Liang came, and then there was no more.
A season of influence, a season of blowing, Rivers decided to enjoy life like Mike Brown!
Griffin made two free throws. Li Liang and Paul discussed the decision and decided on the strategy for the next few minutes.
Soon, the Clippers changed.
The Spurs were screened from a high position, and Li Liang, Paul and Jordan Jr. suddenly hit the ball with three players.
Parker wanted to play the ball, but was blocked by Jordan.
Li Liang grabbed the ball and immediately passed it to Paul. He quickly went down to the left corner.
This counterattack came very quickly, Paul scored the ball to Li Liang, Li Liang received the ball and cast!
Three hits!
At 62:54, the point difference came to 8 points, which is the biggest point difference so far in the half game.
Then, Leonard turned and shot two points in the attack.
The Clippers served quickly in the backcourt. Paul held the ball through the half and faced Leonard's misplaced defense. A continuous dribble turned to the middle and then took a fake move to the basket. Finally the right hand A beautiful anti-hook layup succeeded!
The Clippers are obviously speeding up.
The Spurs are still calm.
Parker used Duncan's pick-and-roll wide-range lateral movement to get rid of the defense and hit a mid-range jumper from the top.
At 64:58, the Spurs continued to bite.
But Li Liang slammed the ball to Griffin after halftime.
Griffin singles Split, Sigma back-stroke strength, hands dunk!
The atmosphere of Stamps was pushed to the second highest point in the field!
Boss Ballmer stood up excitedly and danced.
The Clippers had such momentum in the first half, but it was quickly suppressed by the Spurs and turned over.
This is a rhythm change planned by Li Liang and Paul, which is to hit the Spurs and pull the score.
However, if the Spurs can be crushed by these attacks, the Spurs are not Spurs.
Popovich did not call a timeout, the Spurs continued their positional cooperation.
Faced with the sudden speedup of the Clippers, the Spurs did not panic, and continued to transfer the ball quickly.
In the end, Green smelled a chance, and the left wing took the ball to the basket and faced Jordan to stop the jump shot.
Although there was no hit, Jordan was too excited and rushed too hard, knocked Green down, and sent Green to the free throw line.
The Spurs' calmness is unmatched by any other team.
After all, their core players have gone through hundreds of battles, and all kinds of storms have been encountered.
To defeat them, it is not enough to rely on one or two attack waves. You must have the faith to grind your teeth to the end, and absolute strength.
Both parties entered an official suspension.
The Clippers replaced Griffin with Odom to strengthen the team's offensive firepower.
The Spurs replaced Ginobili, Dior and Bonner.
Popovich seemed to have any ideas, and Lord Bonner got it again.
After returning from the suspension, Green made two free throws, 66:59, 7 points.
Li Liang held the ball in the high position again. Barnes and Ge completed a cross-screening cooperation. Li Liang scored the ball to Barnes in the bottom corner. Barnes caught the ball and shook Ginobili first. Then the bottom corner made a three-point shot and hit!
The tireless passing assists will always return, Li Liang and Barnes high-five.
For the first time, the difference between the two sides in the game came to 10 points.
But then, there was a conflict between the two sides.
Odom nearly intercepted Leonard's pass on defense and the ball rolled out.
Bonner and Paul grabbed the floor ball on the bottom line, Bonner took the lead to control the ball, Li Liang immediately stepped up and grabbed a team with Bonner~EbookFREE.me~ Bonner did not let go, and then the two stumbled directly The crowd towards the bottom line fell into the reporter and the camera.
In the playoffs, Li Liang and Bonner held the ball and refused to let go. Both tempers came up, and they lay on the ground and almost wrestled.
The players on both sides gathered, pulled Li Liang and Bonner away, and pulled them up from the ground.
The referee quickly blew the whistle to separate the two, and then went back to watch the video to make sure that although the two had a conflict, they did not hit the man.
However, Li Liang's side has been deformed.
Mike Brown has stepped forward to appease Li Liang and make him not to be impulsive.
"I'm fine and okay, okay."
Li Liang took a sip of water by the end and calmed herself down.
It has calmed down for most of the game, and we can't ruin the whole game because of a little conflict.
