Chapter 527: Very Ugly
The second quarter started, and the second teams on both sides continued to confront each other.
For the Clippers, Crawford took the lead in hitting a three-pointer in the second quarter, helping the Clippers to further widen the point difference.
On the Lone Ranger side, Devin Harrison and Carter appeared.
Harris and Carter made a cross screen, then used Blair's screen to drive into the paint and hit a floater.
Devin Harris returned to his old place. He was once sent to the Nets to trade for Kidd. He became a blockbuster in the Nets and became a lightning bolt, and finally fell quickly.
Now his figure is obviously fatter, his face is rounder, and he has returned to the Lone Ranger to spend the last period of his career.
His speed is not as fast as before, but after all, he is the person who has set the record for the fastest dribble across the court, and his assault ability is still there.
In addition to Harris, Carter and other veterans, Nowitzki also stayed on the court.
In this regard, Nowitzki's role is very similar to that of Griffin, but Nowitzki has a heavier burden.
The Lone Ranger without Nowitzki on the court often doesn't know how to play, even if the German chariot is 36 years old.
Therefore, the Clippers' defense against Nowitzki is still tight. As soon as he catches the ball, a double team will come over immediately.
Rivers knew that Nowitzki was the eye of the Lone Ranger, and if Nowitzki was blocked, the Lone Ranger's offense would not work at all, it could only be piecemeal, and it would not be a threat.
But tonight Nowitzki is in good shape. He held the ball in a high position and faced the Clippers' double-team, he turned around and passed Griffin!
Crawford came from the upper line to attack, but his cooperation with Griffin was not good, causing Nowitzki to leak behind. As a result, Nowitzki dribbled and turned around to pass Griffin, and broke into the basket from the left. Down, and then a left-handed layup.
If there are any flaws in the Clippers lineup, a major problem is that apart from Jordan, there is no qualified backup rim-protecting center.
Hollins is relatively weak as a backup center and can only barely complete the inside tasks. There is no way to do a good job of protecting the basket in the short time of the second team.
Just after the ball was played, the Clippers missed the attack, and Devin Harris used his speed to get to the basket. He accelerated past Hollins and made a layup.
The Lone Ranger narrowed the point difference to 7 points.
The Clippers have been hoping to get a better backup center in the free market and trading market, but they have never been able to do so.
After all, it is impossible for you to take advantage of everything.
Mike Brown once suggested that Li Liang should occasionally act as a center protecting the rim, saying he could.
This proposal was rejected by Rivers, who thought it would put too much pressure on Li Liang, especially if he was prone to foul trouble.
In order to "train" Li Liang, Mike Brown can't wait to let him play all positions on the field, including the head coach.
Rivers is still relatively calm, he must make good use of Li Liang.
Yes, fair use is good.
Li Liang himself didn't think so.
He sat off the court and watched the second team of the two sides come and go, feeling a little anxious.
Why don't you let me go?
Li Liang is not the rookie of last year, but his desire to play has never diminished.
Especially this time, he was ready to fight hard.
With Nowitzki hitting another three-pointer on the offensive end, the Lone Ranger chased the point difference to only 5 points.
Rivers called a timeout, and the Clippers offense was in trouble.
The ball can't be passed to Griffin's hands. The Lone Ranger's defensive strategy is to let you shoot from the outside rather than give Griffin a chance to play easily.
Carlisle knows that the Clippers' second team is strong because of Griffin. To be honest, Crawford is not as useful in the playoffs as in the regular season.
Under the fast-paced and high-intensity confrontation, his outside shooting percentage has dropped significantly.
While Li Liang and Paul were sitting off the court, Carlisle was going to wait for them to play before readjusting their defensive strategy.
Carlisle's arrangement was correct, Rivers realized this, and immediately replaced Li Liang again.
Before his debut, Rivers' main instruction to Li Liang was "don't foul".
What Rivers is most afraid of now is that Li Liang fouls too much due to fierce confrontation in defense, which will cause the team's offensive firepower to continue.
The Lone Ranger is obviously different from those young teams that have just entered the playoffs. They entered the playoffs from the beginning, with rhythm control and tactical arrangements are very sophisticated.
From coaches to players, they are all experienced veterans, so the Clippers may not have any pioneering work, but they must not make major mistakes.
Rivers just hopes that the Clippers can win the game in a stable manner. As long as they don't make mistakes, the Clippers' strength can stabilize the Lone Ranger.
Li Liang didn't think so, what did Rivers say, "no foul", did I come on the court just to avoid fouling?
You thought I was Hanamichi Sakuragi, the Los Angeles exit king.
Li Liang is ready to show his talents and starts his performance.
At the end of the timeout, the Clippers serve the ball from the sideline and Li Lianglai serves it.
Li Liang gave Paul a look, and Paul understood.
Paul is not Curry. Li Liang and Curry use eye coordination, which is a disaster. I don't know what they are thinking.
Paul suddenly made an empty cut into the basket, attracting two people to defend.
Li Liang immediately passed the ball to Paul, Paul pretended to walk in, attracted the defensive attention of the three Lone Rangers, and then dribbled around.
At this time, Li Liang had already stepped into the field and cut directly to the basket from the weak side. Paul saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Li Liang with an oblique attack.
Li Liang caught the ball and dribbled straight to the basket, but the basket was empty!
Li Liang leaped high and made a heavy buckle with one hand!
buckle fly...
The ball flew directly to the technical table and hit a technician.
Li Liang used too much force on the ball, so he couldn't hold the ball firmly. The ball bounced off the basket, but it just popped out.
What a shame!
The first player in the regular season who was about to win the MVP, had a slam dunk in the first game of the playoffs and smashed him.
Paul looked at Li Liang with contempt in his eyes, can't you layup if you can't dunk?
Your pull-up jump shot is better than a dunk, and your dunk percentage is almost not as good as your shooting.
Li Liang felt very embarrassed. He wanted to perform, but this result came to him.
When Li Liang returned to defense, he went to the technical desk and apologized to the technician.
It seems that he is still suitable for shooting three-pointers.
However, Li Liang's smashed ball paralyzed the Lone Ranger to a certain extent!
They thought that this guy's condition would not be very good tonight, but they didn't know that was not the case.
Subsequently, Blair grabbed an offensive rebound in the offense, made a tip-up and caused Barnes to foul at the same time.
Blair added a free throw, and the point difference was only 2 points away.
The Lone Ranger's counterattack is not over yet.
Jordan swung his elbow in the offense and accidentally hit Nowitzki in the eye socket, and Jordan was called an offensive foul.
Dirk Nowitzki happened to be off the court, and Devin Harris and Blair cooperated in the pick-and-roll. After Blair got the ball, facing Li Liang's defense, he used a very strange one-handed golden chicken independent tosser and scored a two-pointer.
The posture of the ball was very ugly. At the beginning, the ball bounced a few times on the basket and scored, and the two sides drew.
Rivers called a timeout, but instead let the Lone Ranger tie the score.
What is it called?
It's called the draw before the storm.
Rivers did not call a timeout again, and the atmosphere at the scene was a little tense for a while.
So far in the first game of the playoffs, the Clippers don't seem to have shown the strength to crush the Lone Ranger.
This makes many fans a little worried, is the Clippers really far worse than the regular season in the playoffs?
Needless to say, someone in some forums must have started posting, "The Lone Ranger has already tied, what level."
what level? The level of blindness.
In the early years, there was a game theory, which later developed into a half-time theory, then a quarter theory, and the last ball theory.
The ups and downs of the basketball game score are normal, and it is also common for series games to win and lose. It is not easy to draw conclusions until the last moment.
Some people just can't help being cheap, anyway, let's talk about it first, if they are slapped in the face, they will automatically hide.
At this time, Li Liang took the ball from Paul to organize the team's offense.
Li Liang was holding the ball in a high position, and Marion was defending him. Seeing that Li Liang was holding the ball, Marion turned slightly to his right side and Li Liang's left side.
Then, Carter approached Li Liang, setting a hole and a pocket for Li Liang.
If an ordinary team arranges pockets for Li Liang like this, Li Liang's approach must be to transfer the ball, and then the Clippers find a gap to attack through the pass.
For teams with better rotations like the Mavericks and Spurs, Li Liang will try to pass some penetrating balls.
It is really impossible to organize for Paul, or call a pick-and-roll, and see how to deal with it after the pick-and-roll.
But this time Li Liang didn't handle the ball like before.
He dribbled the ball and took a small step back, an arm's length away from Marion, and then at an extremely fast speed, he suddenly took off and shot a three-pointer!
A forced three-point shot, one step away from the three-point line, Marion was completely unprepared, and then the ball flew towards the basket, and went into the net with a "swish" sound!
After scoring the goal, Li Liang blew on his fingers, feeling that his hand felt pretty good.
At this time, he had already used the A-level three-point shooting percentage improvement sticker for himself.
Then, Harris missed a three-pointer from the outside in a counterattack.
Jordan got the backcourt rebound and handed the ball to Li Liang.
Li Liang slowly dribbled the ball across the half court, he was not in a hurry because he didn't want to hit the basket.
What are you doing at the basket, dunking? I can't buckle it in again.
Li Liang dribbled the ball to the left 45 degrees, and Marion posted it again.
At this time, Marion hesitated a little. Should he defend himself close to the body or take a step to defend the three-pointer?
For a moment of hesitation, Li Liang pulled up again and made a three-pointer, and hit it again!
Two consecutive three-pointers.
Carlisle vaguely smelled a bad breath, and immediately called a short timeout.
Carlisle, you are too picky, why don't you call a long timeout?
The short timeout of 20 seconds was just a change of person, and the main force was replaced, and the game time was less than a minute.
Nowitzki reappeared after dealing with the bruises on his eyes, and immediately under the defense of Li Liang, he scored 2 points with his iconic backward golden chicken independent jumper.
But Li Liang doesn't care, you vote, if you invest in one, I can get in too.
Li Liang handed the ball to Paul, then picked and rolled with Paul, used the simplest pick and roll to cut outside, received Paul's pass on the right side, and made another three-pointer!
The ball was fast and steady, passing directly through the heart, and Carlisle felt a chill in his heart when he threw it.
Li Liang's shot made Carlisle think of Stojakovic in the 2011 team.
Three consecutive three-pointers!
But it doesn't end there.
The Lone Ranger changed their defensive strategy after a timeout. Carlisle asked Marion to defend Li Liang alone, instead of double-teaming, and mainly defended his three-pointers.
As a result, Li Liang took out his [Gravity Wooden Fish] in a timely manner.
Under the influence of the gravitational wooden fish, Carlisle found that the players would inexplicably double-team Li Liang.
Li Liang used his ground pass to assist Jordan in consecutive lob dunks, detonating the atmosphere of Staples.
In about 3 minutes, the Clippers beat the Lone Ranger 15:2.
Originally, the point difference was still tied, but it was stretched to 13 points.
Did Li Liang let the Lone Ranger go? How can it be.
The most important function of the gravitational wooden fish is not to attract the defense, but to disturb the hearts of the Lone Ranger players.
Carlisle's good rotation defensive system trained by the Lone Ranger over the years showed signs of collapse under Li Liang's assists and three-point bombing.
Li Liang only spent about five or six minutes, and the Lone Ranger players began to doubt their lives.
How to prevent? Why do you feel that your brain is a little disobedient?
At this time, Carlisle should call a timeout, which can break the impact of the gravitational wooden fish.
But Carlisle didn't. He suddenly became stubborn. He just hoped that the players could adjust themselves.
The Lone Ranger's offense adjusted, and Nowitzki made consecutive mid-range shots, which relieved a bit.
But the Lone Ranger's defense collapsed in the last two minutes of the second quarter.
Rivers wanted to change Li Liang to rest, but Li Liang refused.
He finally destroyed the Lone Ranger's defense, and it's time to reap!
Li Liang first steals Nowitzki on the defensive end, counterattacks and scores the ball to Barnes who is keeping up with him, and Barnes makes a layup.
Then Ellis missed a jumper, Li Liang got a rebound from the backcourt, and after halftime, he made an emergency stop outside the three-point line and hit another three-pointer!
The Lone Ranger's defense has been confused. They don't know whether Li Liang can pass the ball or shoot himself.
Monta Ellis quickly counterattacked and missed a jumper with an emergency stop.
The Lone Ranger was in a hurry, and Carlisle yelled on the sidelines to remind him not to worry, but there was no way, he fell behind too much all of a sudden.
And Li Liang seemed to be more anxious than the Lone Ranger players. He didn't slow down and play slowly because the team had a lot of leads, but took the ball in the backcourt and rushed.
When he rushed to the three-point line, the Lone Ranger players didn't know how he was going to play, and all their attention was on him.
As a result, Li Liang passed the ball to Griffin with a [one shot into the soul], and Griffin easily made a layup.
Carlisle was holding his forehead on the sidelines, so why did he suddenly become like this? The defense has been completely dismantled.
There was no way, with 1 minute before the end of the game, Carlisle used up a long timeout.
At this time, the score between the two sides is already 67:48, and the Clippers have already led by 19 points.
The scary thing is that every one of these 19 points is related to Li Liang, whether it is the three-pointer he made or the assist he sent.
Not most, but every cent!
Except for that crappy dunk, every subsequent choice of his seemed to be an understatement, and then poked the Lone Ranger so heartbroken and bright.
Carlisle's long timeout finally brought the Lone Ranger players out of their stupor.
They don't know what's wrong, how did the good line of defense collapse?
Completely focusing on one thing and losing another, without a defensive focus, Li Liang is timid as soon as he gets the ball, not knowing whether to defend the pass or the shot.
This is the effect produced by the gravitational wooden fish after being infiltrated by the dull classics.
Although it only lasted a few minutes, the blow to the Lone Ranger was devastating.
After the timeout, Carlisle arranged a tactic. Marion cut to the basket and made a layup, but was capped by Li Liang, who followed up the defense!
This has nothing to do with the gravitational wooden fish, but because Li Liang has seen through the Lone Ranger's tactics.
Then Paul and Li Liang picked and rolled, Li Liang held the ball in a high position and pretended to pass the ball to Griffin, but suddenly fired at the top of the arc!
Three points again!
70:48!
22 points difference.
The Lone Ranger players are a little desperate.
How can I fight this?
Is it finished?
no end.
Nowitzki still gritted his teeth and stood up, broke through and killed Griffin and caused Griffin's foul. After making two free throws, 70:50, there were still 10 seconds left in the first half.
Li Liang wanted to catch the ball, but he couldn't catch it. The Lone Ranger double-teamed him.
The ball was passed to Paul, who quickly crossed the half-court, and Li Liang yelled at him, "Give me the ball!"
Paul obediently returned the pass and gave the ball to Li Liang who was standing outside the three-point line.
Marion was almost sticking to Li Liang's face to defend, and he couldn't be allowed to shoot a three-pointer!
And Li Liang took a tentative step, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face, and then took a step forward with the ball!
Then make an emergency stop outside the three-point line and shoot a jumper!
An extremely difficult emergency stop jump shot, Marion stretched his arms and rushed to defend, but he still couldn't prevent it.
The ball hits the board and goes into the basket!
Three points hit!
The referee blew his whistle, and the ball also caused Marion's foul, which required an additional penalty.
Marion felt that he was about to collapse, so he stood there with his hips on his hips and didn't speak for a long time.
When Nowitzki came over and patted Marion on the shoulder to comfort him, Marion shook his head and said, "He was laughing just now, he was laughing... Damn, it's so ugly."
