Chapter 794: Nemesis

The Thunder called for a timeout, and they recently had some problems on offense.
In fact, it is not a big problem, that is, Durant and Westbrook feel not very good.
The state of the players is ups and downs, there are peaks and troughs, this phenomenon is more obvious in ordinary players.
Maybe a week or a month, a player's three-point status will be very good.
A lot of games in a row, high field goal percentage.
Especially at the beginning of the season, some players will have a "burst" phenomenon.
But the NBA schedule is long and there are many games, it is an endurance game.
Part of the situation remains poor, and by the middle of the season, it will start to fall off the chain.
Percentage of hits continues to decline, and outside shots are not common.
Giant star players like Durant and Westbrook will fluctuate as well. This is the lower limit and will not be as obvious as ordinary players.
This week, the two were diving at the same time. Both three-pointers and mid-range shooting percentages have declined, often opening the game.
Then the Thunder had to rely on the second team to chase points.
Donovan didn't want to let Li Liang play too early. Li Liang used to consolidate his advantage and hit the opponent with a hammer.
During the suspension, Donovan emphasized playing more inside and reducing the outside shot.
At the same time, you can try a joint defense in the defense, disrupt the Lakers offensive organization rhythm.
Back to the field after the timeout, Donovan's adjustment did not play a very good role.
Playing inside, Hibbert's pillar pestle is really a bit effective at the basket.
Westbrook didn't succeed in rushing to the basket. Hibbert got the backboard and passed the ball to Kobe. Kobe used a clever dribble to evade the defense in the counterattack. He immediately stopped the jumper and made a shot.
As far as Kobe is concerned, playing for two more years is not a problem at all. Li Liang sat on the bench and watched. I really don't know why he wanted to retire.
Then, Durant held the ball and rushed to the inside, but Leonard's defense against Durant was in place. Durant failed to get to the basket. Finally, he could only skew his body and forced a sudden stop jump shot. in.
The Thunder's offense was obviously anxious.
While the Lakers played well, Hibbert received rebounds in the backcourt and gave Bryant.
Kobe did not rush to halftime, gave the ball to Love, walked inside and made Leonard a blocker.
Leonard went to the perimeter to catch the ball and pretend to shoot. After the fake moves away from Durant, he took the ball and killed the basket.
Facing Adams's defense, he grabbed the ball with one hand and went straight to the basket for a dunk!
Leonard's hand is really big, giant hand, although his dribble breakthrough is not as spiritual as Kobe, but he seems to be a robot, straight into the basket, take off quickly, dunk a blank expression.
Slow motion replays clearly show that Leonard had no expression when he dunked.
Like Jordan and Kobe, they often stick out their tongues, and other players will look angry. Only Leonard seems to have happened.
The score has turned into 16:1, the Lakers are open, so Thunder can not lift his head.
The Thunder finally ushered in the next attack.
Kevin Durant asked for the ball from the left side of the waist. After receiving the ball, he turned directly and then jumped back to make a jumper to score two points.
Leonard interfered with the ball, but it was useless. Durant felt uncomfortable in retrieving the shot.
But coming back, Leonard also asked for the ball in the low post, the bottom line, catching the ball, dribbling the top of the back, and then turning the jumper into the same action!
This is a new trick Leonard learns in the new season. Under the guidance of Kobe, it can be said that it is quite smooth and excellent.
Leonard's shooting talent is not outstanding, and his hand shape and posture are obviously stiff. To put it bluntly, the ball is not good.
But he relied on his hard training, and in a short time, he improved his shooting to a high level.
At 18:3, the Lakers established an absolute advantage of 15 points.
The Thunder's offense is slowly recovering, and Westbrook has started scoring.
He caught Hibbert's defensive positioning error and stepped to the basket in one step. The glide of his left hand dunked!
Westbrook's eruption and take-off did not allow the defender to have a loophole.
Hibbert's position was too far outside, and he walked up the line a bit, and was penetrated.
But the Thunder did not usher in a turning point, because the Lakers also scored.
Kobe and Love's pick-and-roll cooperation. Love took the ball down and was covered by Robertson. Love gave the ball to Leonard on the wing.
Leonard catches the ball directly from a zero-degree midrange jumper and hits again!
He came to feel that Durant was possessed, how to cast how to have.
Durant, who defended him, was embarrassed and was hit several times.
Before the game started, he also volunteered that he could prevent Leonard and let Robertson deal with Love.
The result was good. Leonard scored consecutively, still shooting.
During the preparation before the game, Li Liang said, "Leonard, I'll get him done in minutes. Don't bother. If you can't prevent it, that's your problem."
Well now, unstoppable and unable to vote, it is likely to be mocked by Bruce Lee.
Durant sometimes just thinks too much and affects the state if he thinks too much.
What is likely to be ridiculed, you will be ridiculed by Li Liang!
Sure enough, Durant received the ball on the attacking and outside line, forced a three-pointer and missed.
Li Liang couldn't sit down on the court, pointing at the court and yelling, "Don't throw it if you can't shoot it! Will you play? Will you beat me?"
Durant glanced at Li Liang off the field, and he was very unhappy.
But recently his condition is really normal. He got a cold in front of time, his body just recovered, and he needs to be adjusted.
The NBA's high-intensity schedule often does not have much time for you to adjust. You can only change the game to find the feeling.
But Durant didn't quite understand why Li Liang's goods would be so stable, just like Stone Buddha Duncan.
Especially his shooting feel, extremely efficient and stable, it is terrible.
This may also be a talent.
...
In the first quarter of the game, with the last four minutes remaining, the Lakers led the Thunder by 13 points with 25:12.
Donovan pointed to Li Liang, who was already hungry and thirsty on the bench, and called for a timeout to prepare him for the show.
As soon as Li Liang took off his sports jacket and stood on the court, the Temples Center started cheering.
Los Angeles fans still love Bruce Lee.
Li Liang also shamelessly waved to the audience fans.
He seems to be a Los Angeles player.
The Thunder are five up and five down, pure bench, second team, second center.
On the Lakers side, Kobe will definitely go to rest, and Love will also take a rest.
The one who stayed on the court with the second team was Leonard.
Seeing Li Liang debut, Leonard was inexplicably a little flustered.
In the first quarter, Leonard played very well. He shot 6-of-7 from the field. One person scored 12 points, which was extremely efficient.
But Li Liang was on ~EbookFREE.me~ Leonard hinted at himself, "It's over, the goods are here, I feel the pill."
Li Liang does have a psychological advantage in playing Leonard, and next time Leonard will suffer against Li Liang's team.
Not only the situation suffers, the data suffers, the outcome loses, and even the psychology suffers.
Leonard is a person with excellent psychological qualities, but every time he is irritated by Li Liang.
Although he couldn't see it on the surface, he was always expressionless, but Li Liang knew that because he received anger.
And it will be delayed every time.
Leonard is now here, and seeing Li Liang is a little angry.
[Angry worth 20, from Kawhi Leonard. 】
Li Liang was a little foolish, shit, I didn’t do anything and didn’t say anything, so you were angry with me?
Think about it, it may be the last game, delayed.
