Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems

Pressing the urge to throw the dice, during the intermission, Li Liang summed up the reasons why the team played well in the first half.

The first reason, of course, is that he, Bruce Lee, the Light of India, the King of Corn, and the founder of the league's mobile dynasty, played well in the game!

Li Liang now understands that in a team like the Pacers that is relatively lacking in offensive talent, he should let go of his offense instead of just thinking about mobilizing and supporting.

Every team has its own advantages and disadvantages. As the backbone, he should make up for what is lacking.

What the Pacers lacked in the past and now is a strong attacker. He is one of the sharpest knives in the league. Why use the knife as a stick?

The second reason is that the Pacers picked up their defense again tonight.

Regardless of whether Bird listens to Vogel and Brown's advice or not, after the team suffered an away game with 1 win and 3 losses, both defensive players believe that the Pacers should pick up their defense again.

Even if the offensive end needs to be transformed, the premise is that the defense cannot be lost, and there must be no major decline in quality.

For quite a long time, Mike Brown focused on Li Liang and his small lineup, but ignored his old profession.

After some reflection, Brown began to pay attention to the Pacers' defense again, and together with Vogel re-strictly demanded players in training, vowing to pick up the team's defense again.

The third reason is that JR-Smith and Finsen, two guards with knives, gave Li Liang a lot of support on the outside.

Smith made very decisive shots today, making three three-pointers in the first half.

And Finsen not making trouble is the best help to Li Liang.

As for McGee...except for "covering" Li Liang at the beginning, his performance at other times was very stable.

Moreover, Mike Brown proposed to let Li Liang and McGee play more pick-and-rolls, and develop McGee's pick-and-roll tactics of catching the ball and attacking the basket.

After all, McGee's physical fitness is there. It's a pity not to develop his jumping, height, and wingspan.

However, this kind of high-profile pass after the pick-and-roll is not well mastered by Li Liang.

Brown said in response, "If you have time to practice, you can practice."

Li Liang thought to himself, what the hell you said is easy, I can do it after practicing, I don't want to enter the system to do tasks? Are you not tired of doing tasks, are you not bothered?

I wanted to return to my thoughts, but Li Liang knew that Mike Brown's thinking was correct.

Using the threat of outside players to help big players cut the ball to the basket and score is one of the very popular simple scoring methods in the NBA.

The Pacers can no longer cling to the low post, including David West, should invest more in pick-and-rolls and mid-range jumpers, and give Stephenson and Li Liang the interior space.

After figuring out these three points, Li Liang instantly felt that it would be no problem for me to be the coach of the Pacers!

If I had known that Bird would not be allowed to come back, would he have an egg for his comeback?

Sitting there all day watching a movie, feeling like doing nothing, I, Li Liang, worry more than him.

Bird, of course, could not be less concerned.

As a "normal" coach, Bird is not as anxious as Li Liang.

After all, Li Liang, who changed teams for two consecutive championships in the first two years of his career, does not exist in NBA history. His impatience is understandable.

Bird was more patient, letting go of the coach, the players, and Li Liang.

After the start of the third quarter, Bird made another bold decision-to increase Granger's playing time.

With the return of David West, the Pacers' rotation has grown, but Granger's playing time has increased.

In training and competition, Granger's condition is getting better and better.

Now his playing time is gradually surpassing Scola.

Especially the combination of him and Li Liang with no big or small lineup, the effect is good.

After the start of the third quarter, Bird replaced Granger early and let Li Liang go to the fourth position.

Granger began to show his ability to attack independently, which can help Li Liang digest the ball.

On several occasions, Li Liang could safely hand the ball to Granger and squat in the corner to attract the defense.

This is a rare treatment in previous games. There is one person to help share the ball, and the decompression effect on the core players is very significant and effective.

Li Liang can play off the ball.

While reusing Granger, Bird also staggered the playing time of Stephenson and Li Liang, allowing Finson to play with the second team.

For Li Liang, this is the feeling of being saved!

Without Finsen, Li Liang felt that playing was much more enjoyable.

Bird probably also felt that it was too much trouble for Li Liang to lead the three fools alone.

The second fool is already the limit, and it must be staggered.

In this way, with Stephenson leading the second team, his ability to hold the ball can be better utilized.

Therefore, with the Pacers leading at halftime, they once again played a wave of offensive climax in the third quarter.

Granger scored 11 points on 5 of 6 shots in the third quarter, becoming the Pacers' most outstanding player.

The Eagles did not expect that Granger would explode like this.

The Pacers widened the point difference to more than 20 points in the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Li Liang came up with two three-pointers and a foul and scored two free throws. The consecutive scoring made the Eagles lose hope of continuing to chase points.

In the end, at 112:98, the Pacers ushered in a valuable victory at home.

This can't help but be a victory, and the key opponent is the Eagles, the strong enemy in the East.

The Eagles actually prepared well before the game, but they didn't expect the Pacers to change their tactics.

So the Eagles' previous preparations and experience were in vain.

Coupled with Li Liang's outstanding performance and 40 points in a single game, that must be the rhythm to send you away.

Winning the Eagles made the Pacers full of confidence, and the haze of the previous loss was alleviated.

For Li Liang, the Eagles fight was just an outpost, and the next one was the most important.

Because the opponent is the visiting old club and the defending champion, the Los Angeles Clippers.

...

On the 10th, the Clippers arrived in Indiana.

The hottest team in the West is of course the Warriors, and the Clippers, as the defending champions, actually occupy the second place in the West in terms of record, only one and a half games away from the Warriors.

Without Li Liang, the Clippers certainly fell from the championship team, but it is not a serious injury.

But it's just a return to 2013, and the core lineup is still retained.

Moreover, after the tempering of last year's championship season, the temperament of the entire team has become different.

Even without Li Liang, the Clippers, whose player abilities and psychology have been improved, are still a top team.

In the current situation where the west is strong and the east is weak, the teams in the east need to pass the test of the teams in the west in order to truly prove themselves.

After staying in the hotel in Yincheng, Li Liang, as an old teammate, went to the training hall to visit his former teammate.

It can only be said that Li Liang's prestige still exists in the Clippers.

As soon as they arrived at the training hall, everyone from the trainers to the bench players from last season came over to say hello to Li Liang.

Little Qiaodan screamed all the way, and ran over to give Li Liang a big hug.

The atmosphere was still very good, and there was no estrangement or conflict caused by Li Liang's departure.

After all, the players know in their hearts that as long as they play in the league, they are actually friends.

What hostility, hatred, grievances, such things are no longer popular now.

The stadium millionaires across the league have united long ago, and it's enough to fight on the field, but what's more real off the field?

The team owner Ballmer also came over to greet and hug Li Liang.

Li Liang is still very sorry for Ballmer.

I first ran to the Cavaliers willfully, and then traded for the Pacers.

If I knew it earlier, it would be better to propose a deal directly with the Clippers, and I could exchange Paul George for the Clippers.

If George can go to the Clippers, the Clippers' hopes of defending their title will be greatly increased. He is a perfect fit like the Clippers.

But Ballmer did not blame Li Liang, he is still a fan of Li Liang.

"Bruce, I already bought your Pacers jersey, but it's not easy to wear normally, and I think the Clippers jersey looks better." Ballmer said to Li Liang.

Li Liang replied: "If you buy Pacers, you will think it looks good."

"Hahaha, I want to too, but I'm afraid that when I buy Pacers, you'll leave again!"

The two chatted happily, and Ballmer also told Li Liang that his championship ring was still in the team, and when the Pacers visited Los Angeles, a ring ceremony would be held for him.

Of course, Li Liang was very grateful to Ballmer, and had a good chat with his former teammates. Before leaving, he secretly touched Paul's head, which increased the probability of Paul's baldness.

"Pao, it's a pity that I can't continue to be your teammate, but I will fight for you in the game tonight."

fight for me?

When Paul heard this, why did he feel something was wrong?
