Chapter 528: Defensive victory

Li Liang is modest and humble, should he still get the prize?
This MVP Li Liang can be said to have coveted for a long time.
Does he care about that reputation and honor?
No, he wants rewards!
Regular season MVP will definitely reward a lot of anger value, there should be any special props.
Li Liang has been coveted for a long time. He can get as much anger and props as he can.
After the end of the regular season, the MVP selection has begun in full swing.
If not unexpected, the result will be reached in the semifinals.
The Clippers' first victory was Li Liang's 47 points, and all the media at home and abroad became Li Liang blowing.
Some media even compared Li Liang and Jabal.
But Jabal is the deserved champion, Li Liang is a second-round pick.
Miracles can only be said to be miracles.
There were three other games on the same day as the Clippers and the Lone Ranger.
The Thunder, ranked third in the West, faced the Warriors in the first round, and the two teams met in the first round for two consecutive seasons.
As a result, the Warriors who fell to the Thunder last season broke out again in the first game, and Curry scored 31 points in a single game.
Use a 31+10 assist performance to win a victory on the road.
Curry's performance in the playoffs is indeed very good, but it looks a bit bleak under Li Liang's dazzling light.
In addition, the Heat ranked first in the East also easily defeated the Hawks, James 28+9+8, quasi triple doubles, stable people feel boring.
But James was really strong. He felt like he was completely unpowered in the first game.
In fact, James' team never struggled in the first round. As long as he entered the playoffs, he never fell in the first round.
Compared with a team in the west, the first round is like a New Year, but the difference is a bit big.
In another game, the Nets of the Big Three defeated the Raptors and scored in the first game like the Warriors.
The veteran Pierce dominated the game at the last moment, and Garnett also had the key to play.
But it's hard to say how far they can go in sixth place in the regular season.
Although the Raptors were young, they passed the discomfort of the first game and will slow down later.
By the next day, the other four groups of the East and West had their results.
The Blazers defeated the Houston Rockets at home and Aldridge scored 35 points on Josh Smith.
The Rockets' defense became full of loopholes in front of the Blazers' smooth offensive.
It can be seen that the Houstonians are going to "have a good chance to manage Mo, and lose his wife and break the soldiers" this season.
Another Western Conference matchup is the Spurs against the seventh-placed Grizzlies.
The competition in the West is too fierce. A strong team like the Grizzlies can only be ranked seventh, and they also met the Spurs.
The Spurs have never been kind to the Grizzlies since they lost to the Grizzlies in the first round in 2011.
The first game against the Grizzlies was a fat beating. The Grizzlies dominated the black and white double-bear game. There was no advantage in facing the Spurs inside Duncan and Split.
The entire team is suppressed by the Spurs from configuration to style, and there is really no chance of winning.
The Spurs team really has enough revenge. Several years have passed, and they are not ready to let go of the Grizzlies.
In the east, the Pacers and Bulls in the upper half won at home, and today's game is a bit of a surprise.
The Clippers received a two-day break after the first game.
The second game was scheduled for April 22nd. The Clippers team took two days of serious rest and adjustment.
Li Liang took the training seriously as usual.
During the playoffs, it seems that students who have entered the "college entrance examination mode" usually drive a car and go home to sneak into the cram school. It is almost time for the college entrance examination. Then they will seriously review in school.
Every game in the playoffs is a new challenge, and the situation of the game changes rapidly.
In the last game you won by three points, and in the next game you might be a three-pointer.
If a team wants to advance smoothly, on the one hand, it is necessary to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the opponent, on the other hand, it is also necessary to play its own characteristics.
A player can eat a lot of tricks all over the world. It is impossible for a team to win the championship this way.
Rivers is a very experienced coach. He has faced all kinds of bad situations, so he is very prescient.
Over the past two days, the team focused on practicing defense.
He believes that the Lone Ranger has more ability to blossom. The last game was completely fooled by Li Liang, otherwise the Clippers will not win so easily.
If you want to really overwhelm the Lone Ranger, you still need to use a stable defense to do the basics.
On the day of the competition on April 22, the progress of the competition really confirmed Lao's idea.
In the first quarter, the two sides played back and forth. The Clippers brought a big victory over Yu Wei, sparking with lightning all the way, and the score difference was opened to 10 points at the end of the first quarter.
But the Lone Ranger who has come back is not messy. They started from the defense and tried their best to cut off the Clippers' conduction ball.
Li Liang played a little impetuously in the second quarter and made mistakes in several passes.
This is Li Liang's biggest problem at the moment. When he tries to organize the team's offense, in order to play an unexpectedly fast effect, he often passes some very risky balls.
If the pass is successful, the pass is unsuccessful. The result is a mistake and the opponent fights back.
The Lone Ranger paid special attention to the blockade of Li Liang's passing line tonight. As for the three points-Carlisle chose to give up, and the normal defense did not fend.
Carlisle repeatedly emphasized to the players before the game that he would let him vote if he did not sandwich Li Liang.
In the second quarter, Li Liang did the same as the previous game. He took out his [Gravity Muyu] and found that the effect was discounted.
He knows that the Lone Ranger must be targeted, and the players are paying attention to preventing passing and not shooting.
Tonight Li Liang's three-point feel is average, not as good as the last game.
In the second and third quarters of the second quarter, the Lone Ranger made several counterattacks with the help of Li Liang's mistakes, and the difference between the two sides quickly narrowed.
At the end of the first half, the Lone Ranger even led the Clippers by 1 point at 61:60.
Both sides scored very high, and the Clippers defended slightly against each other.
This is the case with the Lone Ranger team. Nowitzki is the absolute core of the tactics, but his style of play is not ball-based, so you work hard to pinch Nowitzki. .
But if you don’t pinch Nowitzki, Nowitzki will make you die terribly.
This is the uniqueness of Nowitzki. His restraint and deterrence on the court are very important to the launch of tactics. It is unique to the Lone Ranger.
That is to say, Nowitzki is now in an advanced age, and his state is not as good as before, otherwise the Clippers may fall behind more in the first half.
In the third quarter, in order to target Nowitzki, the Clippers began to use pick-and-rolls, and Ranovich came out for military training.
At the beginning of the second half, Paul made two consecutive one-on-one mismatch singles Nowitzki succeeded.
However, the Lone Ranger insists on changing defenses and insisting on misalignment, that is, letting Paul fight one on one.
Because the Lone Ranger knows that if you don't change defenses or rotate, the Clippers will use the pass to tear the Lone Ranger's defense, and finally all the people break out and kill the Lone Ranger.
Carlisle chose to curb the organization of Paul and Li Liang, not let them lead the Clippers team, and then let two people attack, betting that the two men's attack will not kill the Lone Ranger.
Paul's attack will indeed not kill the dead, but what about Li Liang?
Not really.
After all, Li Liang still lacks the ability to hold the ball to attack. There are too few tricks and only rely on three points. It is possible for a series to break out of two or three games, and it is very difficult to burst even two games.
It can be said that Carlisle's vision is still very accurate.
But this does not mean that Li Liang will sit and wait, just like Kobe Bryant, he is just about to attack.
In the third quarter, when the two sides were in a tangled situation, Li Liang rarely used the three-point hit rate improvement post to open the situation, but used the steal success rate improvement post. In about five minutes, two steals succeeded, two Times undermined the Lone Ranger's attack.
Defense, this most basic and fundamental thing, Li Liang has never forgotten.
He came to the position of power forward and built a no-fly zone with Jordan inside.
After destroying the Lone Ranger four times, Li Liang caused another offensive foul.
Nowitzki yelled at the referee after being fouled, and then got another technical foul.
Li Liang executed a technical foul free throw and scored 1 point. In the third quarter, Li Liang only scored 16 points, but the Clippers have already overtaken the Lone Ranger by 7 points.
7 points, not much, but as the Clippers become more defensive in their inherent confidence.
Little Jordan contributed 5 blocks to the inside tonight, fanning out the Lone Ranger's offensive attacks one by one.
At the same time, Li Liang tried his best to make up for the small Jordan to keep the basket and left a blank lot.
This ~EbookFREE.me~ to some extent led to the division of the Lone Ranger's three. In the fourth quarter, the Lone Ranger relied on a three-pointer to set off a counterattack.
Carter, Harris and Ellis hit three consecutive points.
At this time, Li Liang responded with two three-pointers in the attack, which played the role of Dinghaishenzhen.
This is the cooperation between him and Paul.
In the fourth quarter, the Clippers relied on the play of Li Liang and Paul to defend their advantage.
The Lone Ranger scored 61 points in the first half, and as a result scored 33 points in the second half.
The Clippers defeated the Lone Ranger with 101:94 and 7 points, leading the score with a 2:0 lead.
In two games, one attack and one defense, the Clippers showed people the profound strength of the 70-win team in different ways.
Li Liang and Paul scored more than 50 points together in this field, not to mention the 50, and they defeated their opponents together. It can be said that the two of them started from this time and felt a bit of a double gun.
