Chapter 830: Turn the tide

Since then, Westbrook has no chance to play.
Li Liang and Durant both cut melons and vegetables, and beat the Rockets with a lack of defense on the striker.
The Rockets' lineup has always been problematic. When Yao Ming was there, the top power forwards in the league were rampant. As a result, Yao Ming never had a good power forward.
Now that the NBA is an era of small forwards, even if the Rockets get an Ariza, it's finished, and don't look at the level of the Warriors and Thunder strikers in the same area.
Relying on Harden, the Rockets are desperately squeezing, and they can still top one in the first three quarters. In the fourth quarter, when the opponent exerts force, the Rockets can't withstand it.
Under the long arm of the Thunder front, Harden missed a three-pointer and struck inside to try to foul, but the referee did not blow.
And Li Liang and Durant, one-on-one can't defend, double-entry? How do you tie it.
Ariza is alone with Li Liang and Durant?
The two played a wave of 18:4 offensive and offensive waves, and the wave hit the Rockets down.
The front of the two sides was lively and lively, and the Rockets fell down as soon as the Thunder finally exerted force.
At 110:100, the Rockets scored a hundred points, but the Thunder had 10 points more than the Rockets and easily killed the Rockets at home.
The strength gap between the two teams is still too large.
Li Liang came off the bench this game, but it took nearly 40 minutes in total. It is also an ability to use a substitute for 40 minutes.
He scored the highest 31 points in the game, also scored 16 rebounds, 3 steals and 3 assists.
Li Liang was selected as the best player in the field. In an interview with reporters, Li Liang said, "Today I played a little bit more and I sweated a little bit."
There are not many games that make Li Liang sweat. So far this season, there should be no more than five sweating games.
Durant basically did not sweat this time, so he sprinted a little in the fourth quarter and was forced to take a walk at other times.
...
The time in March is getting less and less, and the NBA regular season is coming to an end.
Li Liang still didn't make much progress in the task of "mental ability", still staying in that barbecue restaurant to confront Thurmond with his back.
Li Liang made various attempts, such as leaving the barbecue restaurant to go shopping around San Francisco.
Enter the mall, go to the bar, go to the beach to swim, go to the restaurant to help and so on.
If this is a large game, Li Liang is stuck, I don’t know what went wrong.
And compared with the game, he can not do too much in the task, such as hitting people, hitting people, robbing the bank.
As soon as he is ready to start, the system will kick him out of the task.
This caused Li Liang to be a little irritable, so he didn't care about this task for the time being, and he devoted himself to the final stage of the regular season to compete with the Warriors' league first.
The Thunder wanted to get the best record in history and could only lose two more games.
At the same time, the coaching staff decided that starting in April, the last two weeks of the game day, the main players will begin to take turns.
But among those who take a holiday, Li Liang is not included.
The reason is that you played too little in the previous game, you should play one more and look for the status.
Li Liang knows that this is creating opportunities for himself to impact MVP.
So he rightfully resisted the team's main task, and began to rush into the MVP battle.
On March 24, the Thunder played against the visiting Utah Jazz.
Kevin Durant and Westbrook scored a total of 30 points, and Li Liang scored 40 points alone, led the team 119:91, 28 points advantage swept the Jazz.
On March 26th, a focus game in the regular season, the third in the West, the San Antonio Spurs, who have won 50 wins, came to the Energy Center.
Spurs' backcourt star with Wiggins and Booker as a combination has shown amazing talent under Popovich's training.
Booker's explosive scoring and Wiggins' athleticism have always been the dream of the Spurs, and they are the fresh blood they need.
It can be said that this Spurs has a bright future.
Then, Li Liang came off the bench with 51 points in three quarters, giving the Spurs a pre-dawn darkness.
120:92, another 28-point victory, exactly the same as Li Liang's jersey number.
Wiggins and Booker only scored 25 points together, and only half of Li Liang scored.
In two games, Li Liang scored more than 90 points, letting people see how terrible the single-core MVP won last season.
A precise three-pointer, an unstoppable pick-and-roll impact on the rim, and a weird rhythm close-stop jumper made the defender in a dilemma of being unable to defend.
When walking, you can be bold.
In Thunder, how do you get involved? When Durant does not exist?
Durant has also become the biggest feint in history.
In the past, Li Liang helped his teammates to open up space, and now it is Durant's turn to help Li Liang attract the defense.
Two cups of poison, you always have to drink one.
There is a cup of antidote, but he may not be effective, depends on luck.
After playing the Spurs, the Thunder team flew nonstop to Toronto to face the Raptors on the road.
The Thunder's schedule in the second half of the season is indeed much harder than the first half of the season, and the strong teams are one after another.
This game Kevin Durant finally broke out and no longer pretended to attack the troops.
He scored 35 points plus 8 assists.
In the case of Adams encountering a foul crisis, Li Liang turned into a post and scored a double 20 with 21 points and 20 rebounds.
Another big victory, 121:100, 21 points difference.
The Thunder that swept the league early in the season seemed to be back.
After some ups and downs in the middle of the season, the three quarter punch card has become the daily routine of the Thunder.
On the other side, the Warriors' winning streak also did not stop.
On the 23rd, they defeated the Clippers at home.
With the Clippers leading by 2 points in the first half, the Clippers passed through in the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, continue to sink into the rock and sink the Clippers completely.
The final score was 114:95.
They then defeated the Lone Ranger and the 76ers in a row, and their opponents were much weaker than the Thunder.
Overall, the Thunder's closing schedule is more difficult, and the Warriors are relatively easier, which is more difficult for the Thunder to challenge the best record in history.
On March 29, the Thunder finished the Raptors and went to Detroit nonstop to play away to challenge the Pistons.
The playoffs like the Pistons will not be encountered. The strength is not very strong. The East team meets twice every season. The coach generally does not make careful preparations.
And because it was back-to-back on the road, the team also took a turn off Durant, let Westbrook and Li Liang lead the team.
As a result, something went wrong during the game.
In the first half, the Thunder was still ahead of the Pistons.
In the third quarter, the team suddenly fell into a state of collective misfire.
Donovan may feel that the game is not difficult enough, he also chose to let Singler.
Singler really saved the Donovan family in his last life.
Singler's offense is still so-so, just like that.
But the defense is really not good. It was penetrated by Marcus Morris and could not be prevented from outside.
Finally, Li Liang stood up as the fire captain.
The Thunder scored a pitiful 10 points in the entire third quarter.
From the first half to 9 points behind in the fourth quarter.
Donovan's mind was wise again. Westbrook was not allowed in the beginning of the fourth quarter and Li Liang led the team.
As soon as Li Liang led the team, he started to turn the tide and played the state of [King of Heaven].
Mid-range, three-pointers made consecutive hits, and contributed two consecutive steals and assisted teammates to counterattack, overtaking the score.
But Westbrook came on the court, the two irons, and was overtaken by the Pistons~EbookFREE.me~Li Liang thought, coach, you are here to increase my difficulty in winning and to give me more performance opportunities.
I really thank you.
In the face of the Pistons six, Li Liang withstood the pressure. At the critical moment, he turned the ball back and turned the jumper to score two points, overtaking the score.
Li Liang found that his back can still be used?
It seems that Thurmond practiced every day, although the efficiency is very low, but still effective.
But he thought, if Lao Tzu wants to practice his back, can't he go directly to the task of training his back? Do you have to spend in this task?
This key goal helped the Thunder beat the Pistons with an advantage of 89:88 and one point.
Li Liang scored 28 points in the game and contributed a very crucial quasi lore.
Although the win was very dangerous, the advantage is that fans and the media began to think that Li Liang played well.
