Chapter 699: War for 2 people

The referee's balance whistle disrupted Li Liang's game plan.
He has his own understanding, ideas and plans for the game, which means that he has the will and ability to control the game.
Based on Li Liang’s experience in playing against James many times, he believes that it is better not to drag and tangle with James’ team until the last moment. James’ high success rate of breakthrough play will make you pay cost.
But James' team has always had an imbalance in overall strength, obvious flaws, and large loopholes.
The same is true of the Cleveland Cavaliers today. James has never really been on a certain team. From scratch, he has carefully grown up around him and built a stable team system. He always feels that the team he leads is a good team with good strength.
In the face of such a miscellaneous brand army, we must first crush them, do not fight the endgame, and do not leave them the opportunity to show their personal heroism.
Li Liang's career is not long, but his judgment on the situation on the basketball court still has his own ideas.
After all, after a lot of training in the system, I also studied with various senior coaches. That level is quite good.
He summed up the experience of the previous two games with the Heat, knowing that, when the strength is dominant, the battle must be resolved as soon as possible.
This is true for a single game, as is the entire series.
Of course, if dragged to the back, Li Liang still has the confidence to kill the Cavaliers and James, but it may have to pay some price, which will affect the finals, which Li Liang does not want to see.
Only in the course of the game, there are too many uncontrollable factors.
For example, the referee cannot be controlled. How good is it to control the referee? Li Liang often thinks so.
After blowing the wind of the past few years, I feel that the league referee and Li Liangshu are familiar, and they are starting to be a little immune.
At the beginning of the second quarter, James returned to the field.
Anyway, any coach has no pity for the use of James, can be used to death.
Relatively speaking, Li Liang's situation is much better. Byrd continued to let Li Liang rest on the bench after the start of the second quarter.
Of course, Li Liang knew that this was to prepare him for the hard work in the second half.
James returned to the field, and James Jones replaced Paul George.
As soon as Jones appeared, he received James's pass and made a left 3-pointer shot.
James is indeed better than Li Liang in finding his teammates.
In the passing skills, James did not work, and in the choice of passing, James is definitely a team, but this team must turn him around.
Once Li Liang starts to attack, it is the absolute core. When he starts to pass, he will appear more "invisible" because the Pacers' other offenses are not very dependent on Li Liang's transmission of the ball.
When Li Liang was not present, Stephenson's holding time increased significantly.
He chose to take the ball straight to the basket during the offense and missed a layup.
But Kevin Garnett kept up and tapped gently to make up the basket.
Then James was on the left at 45 degrees, backing singles Champo.
Before the doubles came, he made a golden rooster's independent back-up jumper and made two points.
To be honest, James' backward jumper is ugly enough.
Because of his large body and wide body, he could not do the full turn in the air like Jordan and Kobe.
He is more so called to lean back than to lean back.
But anyway, you can just go in. No matter how he leans, you can turn your back to the three railways, and it’s useless to be beautiful.
The Cavaliers began to find some offensive feelings in the second quarter.
As for the Pacers, Chambord was attacked with another offensive foul, and the ball was attributed to the Cavaliers.
The balance of the situation is slightly inclined.
Sure enough, Owen then used a pick-and-roll on the outside line, found a chance on the right corner, and hit a three-pointer.
The Cavaliers beat the Pacers 8:2, pushing the point difference from 7 to just 1 point.
At 29:28, the Pacers' accumulated advantage in the first quarter was exhausted instantly.
Owen's shot is very difficult. The Pacers' defense has kept up, but Owen still uses his powerful personal ability and hits a jumper on the right corner.
In the NBA game, personal ability is often decisive.
Bird has not yet called a timeout, a 1 point advantage, to see if it can be sustained.
As a result, Kevin Garnett was also attacked with a mobile screen foul...
The referee appeared to be on the pick-and-roll bar with the Pacers today.
For the Pacers, pick-and-roll screens are a very important part of their offense, because the low-post, back-run, and air-cut tactics they performed in the past are now rarely used, and they are playing more "modern".
In the "modern" offensive system, pick-and-roll and cover are very, very important links.
If the referee severely punishes the pick-and-roll screen, it is not good news for the Pacers.
At this critical moment, Garnett still showed his superstar background.
First of all, he didn't dispute with the referee to cause a technical foul. Then he successfully covered the defense in the defense. It has been extended to the three-point line, which interfered with Irving's three-point shot. West scored a rebound.
Then in the offensive position, Garnett caught the ball from the back at 45 degrees on the right side. After a classic shoulder shake, he turned over and jumped back.
Garnett's back jumper is the process.
Regardless of how you guard against it, he just finished those actions in one go and entered, entered and pulled down, and you can't cover me anyway.
This time Garnett scored two points on the field goal, which is an urgent need for the Pacers.
Immediately following, James made a mistake in the attack.
He dribbled in and walked halfway through, walking and walking and found the ball lost.
No one interfered, no one steals, anyway, it was somehow lost.
Garnett scored the ball, a long pass to the frontcourt, Stephenson caught the ball and directly layup!
In the second squad, the tacit understanding between Garnett and Finson can be said to be quite wonderful, and often can play a beautiful cooperation.
At 33:28, the Pacers slowed down and re-established their advantage.
The Cavaliers failed to seize this opportunity, so the two sides once again entered a stalemate.
At this time Bird knew that Li Liang should be on.
Sloan fouled Owen on defense, the ball was dead, and the Pacers began to substitute.
Li Liang re-appeared, replaced Shampert, and McGee replaced West.
In this way, the Pacers had McGee and Garnett sitting inside, and Li Liang came to the familiar small forward position.
This is a precursor to the Pacers' offensive force. Once Li Liang comes to the position of small forward, his offense must be more open.
Li Liang himself thinks so. He might wait for the third quarter and even the fourth quarter to fight against other teams.
As for James, the mentality and preparation for the decisive battle will be made in the second quarter.
In this way, maybe he surrendered in the fourth quarter?
Of course, just thinking about it.
Li Liang is ready to improve his three-point shooting percentage.
At this point, the Cavaliers replaced James Jones and Owen, and joined Paul George and Delaware.
After De La Vidova debuted, the top of the arc missed a three-pointer.
Garnett scored a rebound in the backcourt and then dribble the ball by half.
The Cavaliers had a problem with the defense line for a time. Garnett dribble the ball after half time and crossed the three-point line to enter the three-second zone. How to prevent it?
After shrinking, the bottom line showed a chance. Li Liang was empty at the bottom corner on the left?
Maybe George was just a little bit unclear when he just started playing, and he put Li Liang in the bottom corner of the left side.
Garnett passed the ball accurately to Li Liang's hands, which was Li Liang's most accurate position.
After reaching the Pacers, Li Liang's three-pointer shot in this position has fallen sharply.
Because there is no such opportunity to squat at the bottom corner. Besides, the opponent knows that Li Liang is in the right position and will not give him a vote here.
The Cavaliers were careless, Li Liang took the ball, no props needed, hit!
As an opponent, James saw Li Liang open fire again, knowing he couldn't wait any longer.
James then received the ball during the attack, after a single block screen from the outside, he took a step away from the three-point line!
Also hit!
James' long-range three-pointer is not a practice. Since losing to Li Liang in the 13-year finals, he will practice three-pointers every day after training.
Although his shooting talent is not as good as Li Liang's, he can make up for his diligence, and his three-point shooting has been steadily improving.
The war between the two started in the middle of the second quarter.
George no longer dared to relax his defense against Li Liang and tried his best to defend.
However, Li Liangtie wanted to shoot, and the Pacers directly adopted a high double screen.
Two big insiders, McGee and Garnett, came out to cover Li Liang. Li Liang used the continuous cover to find an opportunity at the top of the arc, shot again, and returned!
This ball, if the Cavaliers come out to defend, McGee and Garnett cut out one by one, Li Liang has the opportunity to pass.
If you don't follow, he shoots directly three-pointers and strikes from a distance.
James seems to be used to this kind of continuous three-point blow by Li Liang.
He was expressionless and used Thompson's cover after the dribble and went straight to the rim and dunked with a one-armed tomahawk!
Li Liang immediately took the ball and quickly served it to Stephenson from the bottom line.
He rushed towards the frontcourt himself, and George followed Li Liang behind. EbookFREE.me~ Li Liang ran to the bottom line, then backed out, and then ran with Garnett's cover in the bottom right corner. A zip tactic.
This tactical walker is not much used, but usually training is useful.
Using this zipper, Li Liang shook off George in an instant and received a pass from Fenson. He made a three-point shot from the right corner!
George has been very tight and very tight, he also rushed to the ball, replaced with other players, such as Spurs Parker or something, may not dare to shoot, or pass.
Li Liang has an advantage in height and wingspan. He wasn't afraid of your interference. He threw the ball out and hit it steadily.
This kind of ball hits the morale of the defense pretty hard.
But there is no way, Leonard, who has a better height and wingspan, can't prevent Li Liang. When he sees Li Liang, he is afraid. How can George restrict him?
At this time, James stood up and said to George after receiving the ball, "I will deal with Bruce later and give it to me."
