?The match between the two sides officially started at 7 pm.

Stamps Center, which welcomed a huge number of audiences and attention from the United States tonight.

Outside the arena, huge flags of the Lakers and Clippers were hung on the east and west sides respectively.

On the open-air platform in the stadium, Lakers fans and Clippers fans gathered together to wait for the game to begin.

Because they can no longer buy tickets, they can only watch the live broadcast of the game on the big screen on the rooftop.

In the square below the rooftop, a large number of fans who could not even buy rooftop tickets were gathered, waiting for the start of the game.

Such scenarios usually only occur in the division finals or finals.

And this Los Angeles derby has already brought such a situation to the forefront.

If the live broadcast time of the TV has not been arranged in advance, several major TV stations hope to advance the live broadcast time to three o'clock or five o'clock.

In this way, fans on the East Coast won't have to watch the game until the early morning.

But it doesn't matter. Even in the early morning, there were still many fans in the United States waiting in front of the TV for the start of the Los Angeles Civil War.

It is really rare to see such a grand occasion in the semi-finals.

In addition, the two sides have spoken out before the series started, and the fans and media have long been hungry and have to wait for a big battle between the two sides.

At this time, on the floor of Stamps Center, the players on both sides were ready.

The Lakers's still a classic four-star shot.

Li Liang had a blue elbow pad on his body, which was still out of place with his jersey.

The Clippers were wearing red jerseys tonight, and theirs were Paul, Jordan Jr., Griffin, Butler and Billups.

This is a dual-control lineup that achieved great results in the first round.

Billups shared Paul's burden on the organization and hit key goals in key games.

Although Billups' overall condition cannot be compared with his peak period, his experience can still play a big role.

Howard and Jordan Jr. jumped in the middle circle and the game began.

The guest who gave the live commentary tonight was Huby Brown. This old man is a real living basketball fossil, with rich basketball tactics knowledge and philosophy, and has been tested by practice and has obtained the best coach.

Howard took the lead in dialing the ball, and the Lakers made the first attack.

At the beginning, both sides must have used the most familiar tactics to test each other.

Li Liang mentioned that he received the ball at a high position, and Kobe slipped through the bottom line and then got the ball to the right waist position.

In the first goal, Kobe had to force Billups on his back.

Although Billups is a point guard, he is strong and can defend Kobe.

Li Liang hurled the ball to Kobe. Kobe was forced to beat Billups with his back and missed the jump shot.

Just started, my hands weren't hot enough.

Jordan Jr. got a backcourt rebound and Paul held the ball through half.

Nash is still defending Paul.

Before there was any problem, both sides carried out regular tactical counterattacks.

Paul handed the ball to Billups, who made a pick-and-roll cooperation with Griffin.

Then he passed the ball to Billups, but was disturbed by Li Liang.

The ball went out of bounds, and the referee judged the Lakers' outbound ball.

Griffin quickly pointed at Li Liang and signaled to the referee that it was Li Liang who touched him.

Li Liang directly hit Griffin's hand and said, "Don't point it randomly! Do you know how to be polite?"

As he said that, he ran to the sideline to get the ball and serve the outside ball.

At the beginning of the game, the referee will not care about changing the judgment.

It's still the Lakers' ball.

However, Kobe still missed the jump shot from the high-level reception!

"Old keen, can you do it? If not, let me do it!"

Li Liang was anxious. He boasted about the game before this game. If he lost, he would be embarrassed.

Kobe really didn't give him face, so he made 0 of 2 shots at the beginning, which scared Li Liang.

Li Liang thought that if Kobe had a bad touch today, he would not pass the ball to him.

Just as he thought, the Clippers had launched a fast counterattack.

Griffin rushed to a deep position under the basket, received a pass from Paul, and after pushing Li Liang away, he made a layup with his left hand.

After scoring the goal, Griffin hit Li Liang with his shoulder.

Griffin really has no good impression of Li Liang.

Every time he hits the Clippers, he has to bully him, various tactics of stealing chickens, various three-point shots from the outside, and even steals his All-Stars.

If Griffin wants to choose the most annoying player in the entire league, it must be Li Liang.

The Clippers played very energetic at the beginning. After scoring the first point, Jordan Jr. defended Howard's attack again.

After chaos at the basket, the ball was touched by Howard, and the Clippers had the right to play.

The Clippers fought back again, and Caron Butler used his speed to get rid of Ci Shiping and made a backward jump shot from the bottom corner on the left.

The opening game is 4:0.

This is not over yet, and Li Liang didn't make a three-pointer from the outside, either.

The Clippers counterattacked quickly again, Griffin used the ball to kill the basket in one dragon, and then passed the ball to Jordan who followed.

Jordan Jr. received the ball and made a dunk in the air!

6:0, the Clippers are the go-to, anyway, they are all at Stamps, and they are the same at home and away games!

"The Clippers played speed, and the Lakers didn't seem to be in shape. They should have a bit of a break." Huby Brown expressed his impression of the game. "The Lakers' positional offense must play efficiency. If they compete with the Clippers, the Lakers will be very dangerous."

The Lakers won 1 against the Clippers in the regular season, and the three games they won depend on the extremely high offensive success rate of positional battles.

The Clippers are still a team that relies quite on fast counterattacks. Once they are dragged into positional battles, the Clippers will suffer a lot.

Seeing that the team was in poor condition at the start, Mike Brown immediately called for a timeout to adjust.

There is nothing to arrange for a 20-second pause, just to give the players a buffer time.

Li Liang took a sip of water and sat on the bench without saying anything.

He will win this game no matter what.

Li Liang had silently tuned out the [Golden Shield] in the system.

When necessary, he will let the Clippers' forwards experience what suffocating defense is.

...

Back in the game, the Lakers were indeed a little out of shape after a week of rest.

Nash is very experienced. He used Li Liang and Howard's pick-and-roll to break through and break into the basket, causing Jordan Jr. to foul.

Go to the free throw line.

When the team's offense was not good, Nash stood up and used free throws to make the transition.

The Lakers finally scored a goal after two free throws.

After playing the first round, Nash's condition got better and better.

As long as someone wipes his butt on the defensive end, he can freely use his imagination on the offensive end.

Then Paul handed the ball to Billups.

Billups were in the same position with Griffin pick-and-roll, and Griffin went down.

This time Kobe and Li Liang recycled it together, leaving a space for Billups at the top of the arc.

Billups hesitated for a moment and made a mid-range jump shot, but missed.

Billups' shooting decline this season is still quite serious, after all, he is old.

Moreover, his outside shooting choices are not very good. Although he is always called the Big Heart, sometimes he is strong and really tests the hearts of fans.

The Lakers got a chance to counterattack.

Nash quickly passed the half-time with the ball. He shuttled through the cracks of Clippers players and quickly found Li Liang who was following.

Kobe dragged it back, attracting the attention of the Clippers.

Li Liang followed up on the wing and ran out of the opportunity, and Nash passed the ball to Li Liang.

Li Liang took the ball and directly stopped and jumped!

A 45-degree hit, Li Liang now ends his fast break with jump shots.
