Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems

The Pacers didn't finally usher in George Hill's comeback until December 31, the last day of 2014.

In the previous few games, the Pacers' performance was relatively stable.

After losing to the Los Angeles Clippers, the team ushered in a three-game winning streak, defeating the Nuggets, Timberwolves and Pelicans one after another.

On Christmas Day, the Pacers regrettably did not qualify for the competition. This was also the first time that Li Liang failed to participate in the Christmas game.

But there is no way. In terms of the schedule, small teams like the Pacers are still at a disadvantage.

And the league didn't expect at the time that Li Liang would leave Los Angeles for Cleveland, and then from Cleveland to Indiana.

Therefore, the highlight of the league's Christmas war arrangement is that James led the Cavaliers back to Miami.

If Li Liang is also in the Cavaliers, there will be more highlights and topics in this game.

It's a pity that Li Liang went to the Pacers, and this season, I can feel that Xiao Hua has a tendency to "treat Li Liang coldly".

As the new president of the league, he must create a new "basketball hero" of his own era.

Like Li Liang, a foreigner who embarrasses himself as soon as he takes office, and moves around after winning the championship, how could Xiao Hua set him up as a role model?

So he went to Indiana, which is in the league's hands. You just stay in the cornfield, the spotlight doesn't belong to you.

But gold does not lose its luster by being misplaced, nor is it mistaken for corn just because it is in a cornfield.

In the last three games, Li Liang scored more than 40 points in three consecutive games. Among them, in the game against the Nuggets, the team only scored 81 points. Li Liang scored 42 points alone, surpassing the team's scoring total half.

Li Liangzheng is going faster and faster on the road to becoming the scoring champion.

After the end of the Christmas War, the Pacers' state has experienced some ups and downs.

On December 26, they lost to the Detroit Pistons in an upset away game.

After defeating the Nets in an away game on the 27th, they returned home on the 29th and lost to the Chicago Bulls by 1 point.

In the regular season encounters, the instability of defensive teams was still revealed.

It is said that defense will not deceive you. In fact, judging from the regular season, under the long season, the record of defensive teams is always worse than that of offensive teams.

Correspondingly, offensive teams achieve better regular season records, and will be criticized for being difficult to win the championship in the playoffs.

Li Liang's performance after Christmas also experienced slight ups and downs.

Now that he is the league's No. 1 scorer, teams are targeting him more and more, and he has begun to enjoy Kobe's treatment.

Since enjoying Kobe's treatment, it is inevitable that there will be Kobe's performance.

In the past two seasons, Li Liang has always been synonymous with "efficient".

By this season, Li Liang has been trained several times.

In fact, his strength has improved compared to the past. Because of this, the increase in ball possession will inevitably lead to a decrease in efficiency.

After losing to the Bulls, the Pacers' record came to 22 wins and 10 losses.

The 14 years are not over yet, and the Pacers have lost more than the Clippers in a whole season last year.

On December 31st, the Pacers played against the Miami Heat at home. The good news finally came, and George Hill returned to the team.

Larry Bird had been looking forward to the complete Pacers all season, and it finally came true before this game.

Hill had started training with the team three days ago, and participated in the team's confrontational training on the 30th, proving that he has recovered and can participate in the competition.

The arrival of Hill made up for the Pacers' last shortcoming in the back line.

In the league's current point guard explosion, it's too bad that there is no reliable defender at the 1st position.

Sloan has a lot of energy on the offensive end, but his role in letting go cannot be compared with George Hill.

With Hill back, the Pacers theoretically have a complete lineup.

Bird debugged for half a season and made a starting lineup of McGee, Li Liang, Granger, JR-Smith and George Hill.

Then, the main bench became Stephenson, David - West, Shumpert plus Luis Scola.

At present, the Pacers' top and bottom players are in good condition, and what they need now is to prove themselves.

The Pacers' record ranks sixth in the Eastern Conference, half a game away from the fifth-ranked Bulls.

And following closely behind the Pacers is the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers fell to the bottom of the Eastern Conference because of their poor start.

In December, the Cavaliers regained their form and began to catch up under the leadership of James.

They achieved a wave of 8 consecutive victories in early December.

However, the Cavaliers have been in trouble recently. The successive defeats have made people wonder how much energy James still has.

Compared with the cooled Li Liang and the suspected James, the hottest team in the league at present is the Golden State Warriors.

As of the 31st, they have achieved an excellent record of 24 wins and 5 losses, and have created a golden three-point whirlwind in the league.

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson's "Splash Brothers" began to dominate the league's headlines.

When warriors face their opponents, they are almost always victorious.

The doubts about Steve Kerr before the start of the season were swept away.

People say that Steve Kerr really activated the Warriors and infused the championship genes into the Warriors' bodies.

As a new force in the league, the Golden State Warriors are popular this season.

In the game between the Pacers and the Warriors, it will take 15 years for the first confrontation.

To be honest, Li Liang still finds it quite boring to play in the Eastern Conference.

The overall strength of the Eastern Conference team is indeed inferior to that of the Western Conference, and the number of stars is much smaller.

Moreover, the style of the eastern team is more defensive and dull, not as offensive as the west, where the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves.

However, during this period of time, Li Liang also calmed down, entered the system, and began to learn some new tactical knowledge.

With the change of roles, Li Liang faced more and more double-teams, ultra-high-intensity defenses, targeted defenses, and even malicious collision defenses in the game.

In addition to further improving his physical fitness and technical ability, and taking out a hair dryer to scold his opponents, Li Liang felt that it was necessary to learn some tactical theories to deal with these defenses.

Although there are two best coaches in the team, Bird and Li Liang don't want to ask, the Horse game hasn't beaten Bird so far, and he can't embarrass himself.

Mike Brown... Forget it, Li Liang doesn't want to talk to him recently.

This guy has been a little crazy recently, and he is seriously designing "oppressive defensive tactics with Li Liang as the core". Li Liang feels dizzy when he hears this name.

I'm going to play oppressive defense again?

Too busy, or not to discuss with him.

Then, Li Liang still entered the system, and in dimension five, tactical literacy, he chose [Break Double Team] in [Advanced Offensive Tactics].

Then he entered the training ground and began to accept the guidance of the former Rockets coach, Tomjanovich.

Back then in the Rockets, Olajuwon suffered countless double-teams, and how to break the double-teams, Tang Shuai naturally had his coup.

Li Liang thought to himself, I am an outside line, is it appropriate for me to learn from the center's double-teaming?

Could Brown be right?

Impossible, I don't believe it, I don't want to play center forward.

Facts have proved that the method and technique of breaking double-teams are almost the same inside and outside the line. The key is how to handle the ball reasonably and calmly.

Li Liang followed the Houston Rockets in 1994 and trained in the system for a week, and his ability to "break double teams" was improved.

So, on the 31st, the complete Pacers played against the Heat without James at home, and the result can be imagined.

The returning George Hill scored 20 points, which can be said to be a perfect return.

And Li Liang continued his performance as the scoring champion, with 35 points and 8 assists in a single game, and defended Bosh one-on-one, defending Bosh to only 14 points.

The Pacers swept the Heat with a 121:98, 23-point advantage at Conseco Arena.

After half a season of stumbling, the Pacers finally got on the right track, ending their 2014 and starting the journey of 2015.
