Chapter 722: Special rewards

The Pacers went crazy in the first quarter, eight three-pointers, of which Li Liang contributed five.
Both statistics broke the NBA Finals record.
The final score in the first quarter was 19 points ahead of the Pacers in a single quarter.
When the buzzer sounded at the end of the first quarter, the subtitles in front of Li Liang fluttered: [Achievement, a three-point king in the finals of the finals, you will get a special achievement reward...]
After a series of ellipsis, Li Liang felt strange, special achievement reward? Why are you half talking!
This system is getting more and more skinny, and I don't know what bad luck to give.
For Li Liang, it is now more and more difficult to achieve achievements.
When there was an achievement system in the beginning, a fart on the court would get a rune or something because of "the first fart in the NBA".
Now that the runes are collected, the achievements are getting harder and harder to get. Some Li Liang thinks it is an achievement, but the system does not recognize it at all, such as the triple double.
Some of them seem to be nothing, but the system still gives you an achievement and rewards you. I really can't see you.
In short, the Pacers completely broke the Warriors in the first quarter, a gap of 19 points.
The Pacers had 40 points, the Warriors had only 21 points, and the offense and defense were completely suppressed.
Cole also thought, 10 points behind in the first quarter, get through, and slowly chase after.
Anyone knows that it has doubled at once, and the state of the Pacers is amazing.
But Cole believes that the Pacers will not always be so good, and the Warriors will not always be so bad, there are three quarters, the Warriors have enough time to adjust.
Not only did Cole think so, but also Li Liang TM.
"Defense! We must maintain our defense next. This is the first priority. We already have a leading edge. We are not an offensive team. Defense is our fundamental. We must block their rhythm through defense. Chaos their offense and make them unable to catch up! Defend! Defend!"
Li Liang reminded his teammates on the bench that the first quarter did indeed play well on offense, but then he had to focus on the defensive end. He shouted "defence" several times in a row to wind up his teammates.
NBA players are also people, and people will slack off and loosen up. This is normal, and it requires constant reminders and constant encouragement.
Bird watched Li Liang guiding carefully and stared at it for a while. After Li Liang stopped talking, he asked, "Are you a coach or am I a coach?"
Li Liang said everything, Bird had nothing to say, he was right, the Pacers' strategy is like this.
Li Liang stared at Bird for a while and said, "If you don't mind, I can act as a proxy."
At this time, the time for the inter-sessional rest has come. It doesn't matter if you mind, you have to continue the game.
At this time, Li Liang had to take a break off the field, and this time was a test for the Pacers.
In order to maintain stability, the Pacers lined up Garnett, West, Champport, Stephenson Gashir lineup.
This is a set of features that are not outstanding, but the offense and defense are relatively balanced, and the inside defense is particularly stable.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Barnes took a strong back against Champagne and turned and missed a jumper.
Of course, on the offensive end, the Pacers are relatively lackluster. Hill cuts the pass to West after a pick-and-roll. West's layup was disturbed and missed.
The Warriors use Livingston with Barbosa in the backcourt. It should be said that the Warriors' bench is indeed very deep. Both are players with strong ability to grab points.
Barbosa outside and Livingston cross-swapped. After receiving the ball, he made a 3-pointer and missed.
Both sides fell into a scoring shortage in the second quarter.
Chambord also missed a three-pointer, and then Livingston broke through the layup and was disturbed. He grabbed the offensive rebound and went up again. As a result, Garnett capped it!
Garnett can still contribute high-quality defense in the first half with plenty of energy, which is extremely important for the Pacers.
Compared with the operation of sending Granger away in exchange for Turner last year, Bird's transaction before the trade deadline this year is really a operation.
However, Garnett really couldn't do it on the offensive end. He caught Hill's pass from a high position and missed a jumper.
After all, Livingston broke the two-minute non-scoring situation, turning around and hitting a mid-range jumper.
To speak of the Finals experience, Livingston is the only Warrior to have the Finals experience, and it was just last year.
Therefore, Livingston is very confident on the court and his movements are not deformed at all.
Of course, Livingston is more aware of Bruce Lee's terrible, as a member of the Clippers, he knows what Bruce Lee has in the playoffs, the strength of the regular season is unmatched.
The Pacers still played very slowly. West held the ball from the low post and took Ezeli from the back. His hooked hook didn't make it.
After falling into position, the Warriors' defense was extremely disruptive.
Then, after receiving the ball at the corner, Iguodala cut into the back, turned back at 45 degrees and hit a jumper and scored 2 more points.
The Warriors narrowed the point difference to 15 points, barely able to see a little light.
The Pacers need a stimulant at this time.
Garnett finally stood up, still a high pick-and-roll, the Warriors directly caught Hill, Hill returned the ball to Garnett.
Garnett did not make another jump shot this time, but dribble two big strides to the basket, one-handed slam dunk!
The goal was scored, and Li Liang bounced from the bench, waving his towel wildly.
After the dunk succeeded, Garnett used to punch his chest as usual, and the ball was very exciting.
If the Pacers don't score again, Bird expects to call a timeout.
The Pacers are now in this lineup, and their ability to engage outside is poor, and the Warriors can pile up the basket.
But they did not expect that Garnett's elder Jifu would come to such a sudden attack.
After that, the referee blew a defensive foul by Champer and both sides entered an official timeout.
"We did a good job! Defense, defense is still the first. If they want to make a three-pointer, temporarily let them shoot, keep the basket, keep the basket! Rebounding, concentration, after five minutes, I will came back!"
On the bench, Li Liang began to yell at the players again. Bird no longer spoke. Come to the tactical board for you and you will draw.
In fact, the Pacers don't need any tactics. Now they are strangling, grinding rhythm, maintaining a 15-point lead, and don't give the Warriors an opportunity to attack.
The Warriors have shown very strong offensive power in the regular season and playoffs.
The advantage of 15 points, to be honest, is not very stable, to know that the third quarter has not yet arrived.
If the Pacers want to win this game, they must be mentally prepared to withstand the crazy counterattack of the Warriors.
After the timeout, Li Liang still sat off to rest.
On the Warriors side, Curry, Thompson and other main forces are also the same, did not debut.
It seems that Cole is also betting on the third quarter, and in the second quarter, try his best to maintain it, and don't let the Pacers widen the difference.
This time it's the turn of the bench players on both sides.
Stephenson played the role of a nerve knife in the second quarter, which is also a big nerve, and it is not a stage fright in the finals. It is dry to get the ball.
Inside Garnett, West, McGee took turns to cover the pick-and-roll for Fenson.
Fenson's continuous strong ~EbookFREE.me~ and outside strong shots, even scored several goals and wiped out all the points chased by the Warriors!
The Pacers continued to support until Li Liang came back. The score of both sides was the Pacers or maintained a 15-point lead.
Li Liang took a long break in the second quarter and came back again. He decided not to give the Warriors a chance to fight back in the third quarter.
In the first half, the battle ended in the second quarter.
He called up [three-point hit rate improvement post] from the system...
Hey, what about my three-point shooting percentage? Come out?
I have always been in the exchange center, come out?
Li Liang shouted several times in his head, but the three hit rate improvement posts did not appear!
After the calf, what is the situation? Is the system broken? BUG out?
Li Liang's brain turned very fast, he suddenly thought of a possibility, this TM will not be a special reward for the achievement system to Lao Tzu?
