Chapter 640: 1 point difference

Li Liang scored only 5 points in the third quarter.
The Warriors' defense against Li Liang was quite successful.
Basically, the attention of all five of the team is on Li Liang.
The other Pacers players are not bad in terms of strength. West, Granger, Smith, Stephenson are all very energetic players.
But their strength is not enough to be a point that can contain the warriors and make the warriors dare not pursue Li Liang.
This is what Paul and Kobe used to do.
Granger, Stephenson, West and others are all piecemeal. If the state breaks out, it may be able to hold the situation, but unfortunately no one's state is big.
They can only barely support it, and do not allow the Warriors to spread the difference to more than 20 points.
After the Warriors gained the advantage, it was like in the long-distance running. In the final stage, they suddenly pulled a half-lap distance, and then as long as they ran the rest of the distance at a constant speed, it was enough to maintain the gap.
This is a strong manifestation of the Warriors this year, playing with you in the front, hitting a wave through, and then finishing, the game is over.
By the end of the third quarter, the score had reached 72:91, and the Warriors led the Pacers by 19 points.
Bird chose Scola to replace Li Liang in a dead ball and let Li Liang take a rest.
To say that it is too early to give up the game.
Byrd knew clearly that if he wanted to make a comeback, there were two points, one was defense and the other must be Li Liang's offense.
Especially his three-pointers.
Li Liang came off the court, took the water from Mike Brown, and drank a drink.
In the third quarter, it was really suffocating. Under the high-intensity defense of the Warriors, Li Liang scored only 5 points, and there were 4 more turnovers.
Iguodala and Thompson went all out.
Last season in the Clippers, the Warriors also played the Clippers in this configuration to deal with Li Liang.
But the Clippers have Griffin and Paul, and the Warriors are so deadly against Li Liang.
Bird sat beside Li Liang and said, "We still have a chance. We need to defend."
Li Liang took another sip of water and said, "I know, but we also need to attack."
Bird said: "I will try a small lineup later, can you withstand it?"
Byrd's purely small lineup is to replace West, no matter how big or small.
Li Liang squinted at Bird, "I can't hold it up too! Or you go?"
Bird nodded. This was the last hole in his hand.
At this point, on the field, after Li Liang came off, Stephenson forced a three-pointer from the perimeter and scored 3 points, rewriting the score to 75:91.
Players' personal abilities are very important at this time.
The Pacers were already in the doldrums, their offensive stagnation, and no cooperation.
This time is to rely on personal ability to continue life.
When a team is at a disadvantage in terms of tactical configuration, proficiency, and on-the-spot performance, the best option it can make is to mix the water.
I can't get points, don't you want to score.
Don't think about it, your offense is so smooth and gorgeous, and I want to be so smooth and gorgeous.
I'm sorry, you don't have that ability.
Be sure to use defense and strength to draw your opponent to the same level as you, and then defeat them with rich experience.
Bird knew this well, but he also knew that it was not that easy.
At the end of the third quarter, the Pacers 78:93, 15 points behind the Warriors.
Not bad, in the last quarter of the third quarter, Stephenson and Champoble each hit a three-pointer, reducing the point difference to 15 points.
A period of time is still within the scope of being traceable.
Byrd got up and encouraged the players off the court, but everyone was still a bit frustrated.
The rhythm of the entire third quarter was controlled by the Warriors.
Fans at Oracle Arena seem relaxed.
To be honest, if a fan thinks of Oracle to see a wonderful game this year, he may be disappointed.
Because the Warriors played too much slaughter at home this year, the game lost early suspense.
The most exciting and dramatic parts of the basketball game are all lost due to the strong performance of the Warriors.
Unless you are a big fan of the Warriors and just like to watch the Warriors bully your opponents, you will definitely be bored.
It looks like another game tonight.
To be honest, Li Liang has also performed a lot of wonderful performances at Oracle.
Today he played very well in the first half, but the Warriors seemed to be a bit lost in the third quarter.
The Warriors are ferocious wolves. Li Liang was once the most ferocious among the wolves. Now he came out and led a group of dogs...
And there are three huskies in this group of dogs.
The difficulty is really not small.
But Li Liang will be discouraged?
How is it possible, on the contrary he is still very excited!
This is the mode I want, single-core mode, single-core challenge!
what? Without helpers, what I want is no helpers.
Join if you can’t beat it? Sorry, I haven't beaten me yet.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Li Liang immediately appeared, he will play the fourth quarter.
At this time, the Pacers sent a small lineup in advance, Li Liang, JR-Smith, Granger, Stephenson plus George Hill.
Li Liang became the highest point in the team.
On the Warriors side, Cole still plays according to the regular rotation. He seems to be quite confident in his second team.
As a result, Barnes broke the left-hand layup with the ball in the middle and was capped by Li Liang.
Li Liang only touched the ball with his fingertips, but the ball still fell into Li Liang's hands.
Hill held the ball forward, and after JR Smith followed up, he took a shot outside the three-point line and hit it!
The nerve knife played a role at this time.
Counting the third quarter, Smith has made two three-pointers.
Afterwards, Livingston held the ball in the middle. After swaying the hill with a fake move, he rolled a mid-range jumper and was about to shoot.
Li Liang came to the defense and directly interfered with Livingston's shot.
Missed, the Grans got a rebound in the backcourt and then delivered the ball to Hill.
The Pacers' defense is well in place, and Li Liang's defense defense is timely.
Hill gave Li Liang to the top of the arc after halftime.
Li Liang didn't stick the ball, and scored the ball to Stephenson on the wing. He used to cover himself.
After the screen, Li Liang cut out, Stephenson returned the ball, Li Liang received the ball on the left, made a three-pointer, and also hit!
Just two minutes after the opening of the fourth quarter, the Pacers beat the Warriors an 8:0, rewriting the score to 86:93, only 7 points away!
Cole immediately called a timeout.
This small lineup of the Pacers caught the Warriors by surprise.
Cole is a bit too big, thinking that it can take a while for the second team, but the result is not good at all.
The situation was tense again, Cole sent Curry and Iguodala after the suspension, and Thompson was still off the court.
Bogut, the insider, re-launched, and Green went down to rest for a while.
Bird saw Cole’s formation and thought that Cole would take a lesson.
It turns out that it was a mistake for Cole to put Bogut up.
The Pacers' small lineup gives Bogut no advantage in defense. At the same time, in the offense, the Pacers actively fight for rebounds in the backcourt. His height advantage also no longer exists.
Although Curry hit a three-pointer immediately after his debut, Li Liang hit another three-pointer in the high post, and assisted Stephenson twice to walk through the back door and succeeded in an empty layup.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Pacers beat the Warriors with a 15:3 scoring climax, and one chased the difference to only 3 points.
A three-pointer can close the gap.
In addition to the surprisingly high offensive efficiency of the Pacers' small lineup, the key is their defense.
In the four minutes, the Pacers had a one-on-one man-to-man defense, but started a high-intensity defense.
When the pick-and-roll is off, the defense is changed, and the air-cut and anti-run is also changed at any time, without giving the Warriors any gap.
Do you want to be misplaced?
To be honest, except for Hill, which is a little shorter, the remaining four people have the ability to guard against small ones.
On the offensive end, the Warriors had Bogut, who put it 4 to 5 in plain words. With the tireless change of defense, the Pacers immediately appeared to stagnate the ball.
And because of the change of defense, Bogut's cover with the nature of mobile pick-and-roll was also discounted. After he came out to cover ~EbookFREE.me~Li Liang directly changed to the one-on-one defense library.
This is a contest between the souls of the two teams.
In this situation, how could Li Liang not use skills?
Hold back the "Death Twine" in three quarters!
In the moment of holding the ball in Curry, ready to break through and attacked Curry!
Li Liangru, like a beast, flew to Curry with the wind, enveloped him, and then grabbed the ball from his hand!
That's right, Li Liang won this ball and grabbed it hard!
Immediately after grabbing it, give it to JR-Smith.
Smith catches the ball and lays up the layup, but Iguodala, who is following, covers it.
But the mantis catches the cicada and the yellow cardinals. Li Liang follows, and the air buckle succeeds!
95:96, 1 ​​point difference.
