Li Liang couldn't refute Harden's statement for a while, and what you said really made some fucking sense.

You can't defend yourself, the brain teaser is very powerful.

Why don't you go to the postgraduate entrance examination?

It's just that no matter how reasonable it is, it is inevitable to be called a foul.

Harden made the same mistake at the beginning of the third quarter as he did in the first half, being too impatient.

Soon, Harden realized that when playing against Bruce Lee, don't be in a hurry, and don't think of crooked ways. You must be patient, confront Li Liang head-on, and use hard power to fight Li Liang.

Harden's offensive skills have been continuously improved in the past two years, especially his shooting, and the step-back jumper is gradually becoming his signature.

For the Pacers, Li Liang fed the ball to West from a high position. West caught the ball and quickly turned around. With a pick with his right hand, he avoided Jefferson's block and scored two points.

Harden immediately singled out Smith one-on-one on the offensive end, and succeeded in a mid-range jumper with a step back.

Harden, who doesn't want to do crooked ways, is still very strong.

Then, the referee called the Pacers another offensive foul on the offensive end.

Beverley tried to get the ball out of Smith's hands for a sideline, but Smith refused to give it, and the two had some arguments.

Smith prefers to give the ball to the referee instead of letting Beverly take the ball and throw the ball directly.

The smell of gunpowder on both sides is getting stronger, but the Rockets' offense is not successful. Jefferson wants to force Li Liang in the low position, but Li Liang takes the ball from behind. After the third quarter, the Rockets' turnovers began to increase, and the Pacers The defensive strength of the team is like a gradually tightening python, trying to strangle the Rockets to death.

During the counterattack, Li Liangchang passed to Granger, who was blocked by Josh Smith for a layup.

But the ball hit the backboard first, so it was an interference ball, and the two points were valid.

Jefferson continued to fight from a low position, but he found that he seemed unable to stand up to Li Liang.

With five seconds left at the end, Jefferson passed the ball, and Beverly received the ball from the outside and made a three-pointer.

This ball is too thirst-quenching. If he doesn't score again, McHale will call a timeout.

Beverley is the surprise player of the Rockets tonight, with a high percentage of three-pointers.

Pacers Hill is absent, and the defense against Beverly is a little lax.

At 60:54, the Pacers led by 6 points.

Li Liang immediately responded with a pick-and-roll with Smith in the high position. After a cut, he caught the ball and hit a three-pointer.

Very simple pick-and-roll coordination, but the Rockets can't defend well, because Harden doesn't follow closely, this guy is a bit lazy.

Later, Harden made a mistake on the offensive end, and the ball passed to Josh Smith was too short, and it was cut off by Li Liang who cut from the side.

Li Liang, Li Liang again.

Why is it always you!

Before it was over, Li Liang made a quick counterattack to Granger who was on the flank.

Granger caught the ball, feinted and made a breakthrough, then returned the ball to Li Liang, who received the ball and made another three-pointer.

Hit again!

At 66:54, the Pacers widened the point difference to 12 points in one fell swoop.

McHale finally called a timeout, and the situation has been controlled by the Pacers.

The Rockets started with a fierce operation like a tiger, and found that they couldn't beat it.

Harden always tried to seize the opportunity at the beginning, and found that he could not seize the opportunity, or was held down, and then disappeared for a period of time.

I don't know if it's the skill CD or I'm thinking about what to do next.

Back from the timeout, the Rockets still haven't found a good way to attack.

They suddenly lost their breakthrough point. After Harden hit the inside line, he was assisted by Li Liang and passed the ball out.

Ariza caught the ball from the outside and missed a three-pointer. Josh Smith grabbed an offensive rebound and passed it to Harden.

The ball moved repeatedly on the outside, and the Pacers' man-to-man defense forced the Rockets to break through.

But the Rockets players' ability to break through with the ball is insufficient, and in the end it depends on Ariza to break through the basket.

After taking a cap from West, he grabbed an offensive rebound and caused Li Liang's defensive foul.

It was too difficult, and the Rockets' offense was stuck.

The Pacers' offense was average, and the outside line hit the iron again.

But I strike iron, and you strike iron with me.

The Rockets who grabbed the backcourt rebounded and counterattacked. Harden made a long pass to the frontcourt, but was intercepted by Li Liang, who retreated quickly.

During the counterattack, the ball was given to West, and West caught the ball and made a mid-range jumper, scoring two points.

68:56, still 12 points, the Rockets' offense has not improved.

Afterwards, the Rockets also replaced Terrence Jones, a little prince like Jones, whose awkward dribbling and slow shots couldn't hit the Pacers inside at all.

For a moment McHale was puzzled, is this the Pacers without a center?

How do you feel that their inside defense is so good?

Bruce Lee is amazing too.

Yes, Li Liang thought so too.

I feel that I am awesome, and I am also very good as a center forward.

"Beep!"

The referee whistled and called Li Liang a defensive foul.

Seeing that the team's offense was not smooth, Harden finally went inside and made a foul after three minutes of silence and the team failed to score.

Li Liang had no objection to this shot. Harden's breakthrough speed was very fast, and he would dunk directly without fouling.

"Damn, don't be careless."

Sweat kept flowing from his forehead, Li Liang reminded himself.

Playing center forward is really a laborious job, constantly filling up, taking off, and fighting in the paint.

But Li Liang enjoyed the process a little bit.

Harden made two free throws. It seems that he can find his true self at the free throw line, and then start his own offensive mode.

At 68:58, after the point difference came to 10 points, there were still 3 minutes before the end of the third quarter.

In these three minutes, Harden completely took over the Rockets' offense.

After consecutive dribbles under the crotch, he made a breakthrough layup.

The outside catches the ball and hits a three-pointer.

Take a little tentative step in the counterattack, and then hit a mid-range jumper.

Sure enough, for Harden, the free throw went smoothly and the offense started.

The two sides launched a confrontation in the last three minutes of the third quarter.

The Pacers kept scoring as well, and it wasn't Li Liang who was fighting Harden but Granger.

Granger made a mid-range jumper, Granger made a mid-range throw to the basket, and Granger made a free throw for Ariza's foul.

After entering 2015, the 31-year-old Granger's overall condition is getting better and better, and it even feels like he is going to return to his peak condition.

This is a big surprise for the Pacers.

Li Liang was replaced by Bird in the last two minutes, and Li Liang still wanted to play for a while.

Bird said: "What else are you playing, how bad is your defense on the court?"

"Harden is not in my control either."

"What about rebounding? What about breaking through the defense?"

"I tried my best."

"I haven't tried my best, so I'm going to replace you!"

Li Liang's defensive performance in the last few minutes was indeed mediocre, after all, he was not a professional.

After waiting patiently, Harden identified the Pacers' defensive loopholes and scored 10 points in a row.

The height and wingspan are not enough, and the shot-blocking talent is not enough. After Harden found the offensive feeling, Li Liang really couldn't stop the beard.

Seeing Li Liang sitting down, Bird said again: "Take them away in the fourth quarter, and make up for the mistakes."

"Okay, I get it now."

Li Liang wiped off his sweat and looked at the scoreboard. At 76:68, the Pacers still lead by 8 points.

The Rockets chased desperately, Harden fired with full firepower, but on the Pacers side, the real scoring machine has not yet started to work.

He's kind of addicted to playing center...

So Bird asked him to calm down and figure out his true role.

You are just an emotionless scoring machine, why do you think so much?
