At 7 p.m. on May 25, a three-game battle between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Thunder started at the Ford Center Stadium in Oxford City.

Tonight's Ford Sports Center is a blue ocean, and the Thunder gave every fan in Oxford a blue T-shirt.

It’s a good thing for fans of the Thunder. They don’t have to worry about T-shirts all year round, and the team often sends them.

In small cities like this, fans are often very crazy.

Thunder, Jazz, Nuggets, and Midwest residents don't have much other entertainment activities, and watching sports is one of the greatest joys in life.

Therefore, they will do their best to support the team.

Unlike international big cities like New York, people go to Madison to watch football not to watch the Knicks win, but to treat it as a social event.

It doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's important that you went to Madison tonight.

So no matter whether New York has good or bad grades, it never has to worry about selling tickets.

Even if they haven't won the championship in 40 years.

The Ford Center is different. Here, for Lakers players, everyone is against you, except for your teammates.

The opening ceremony has ended and the competition is about to begin.

The Lakers started off their sports jacket and are ready to make their debut.

Mike Brown made his final instructions, and in the playoffs, he was as long-winded as an old mother.

Brown stepped forward and patted Li Liang, saying, "Young man, I feel you are in good spirits, come on."

Today, Li Liang gave people the feeling that he was full of energy and was full of energy during training.

Mike Brown felt a little incredible and thought it was good to be young. He remembered his youthful years.

Li Liang is indeed full of energy. He is now full of fighting spirit and just wants to finish the game early and return to the hotel.

Zhu Shu didn't watch the game tonight because she couldn't buy tickets, so she must have watched the live broadcast in the hotel.

Howard and Perkins stood in the middle circle, and both sides jumped the ball, and the game began.

Howard took the lead in dialing the ball, and the Lakers began their first offense.

After the first two battles, Mike Brooks and Brooks began to enter the counterattack mode by fighting each other.

Both sides summarized the situation in the previous two games and must have made new arrangements and adjustments.

The Thunder will definitely strengthen their protection against Durant.

Durant was fouled in the last game and the game was intermittent.

Even so, Durant scored 25 points, which shows his scoring ability.

After the game started, Brooks did not dare to let him defend Kobe anymore and continued to maintain a normal defensive match.

On the Lakers' side, the main control became Nash again, but the main attacker at the opening became Howard.

Howard's role in the inside in the last game was undoubtedly revealed. His finishing ability and second offensive ability caused huge trouble to the Thunder.

Brown must make good use of Howard.

Howard was basically dormant in the offensive end of the second half of the regular season, and rarely had offensive tactics around him.

In the playoffs, as the game deepens, Howard needs to be developed.

Howard wanted the ball at the low position on the left, and Perkins of course was the top defense.

Nash handed the ball to Ci Shiping, who gave Howard a 45-degree lob.

This is Howard's most comfortable catch point. After Howard catches the ball, he immediately turns to the basket.

He knew that he could not resist Perkins, and he needed speed and explosive power to deal with Perkins.

Howard dribbled across the middle, pushed his shoulders inward, and then hooked his hands directly to the basket!

But Perkins defended the ball very well, and Howard was difficult to push Perkins away on his shoulders. He was not as heavy as he was, and his waist was not strong enough.

The ball hook was unpredictable at all, and it didn't touch the basket, and it directly hit the rebound and rebounded and fell.

But Li Liang grabbed the rebound.

The moment Howard took action, Li Liang got into the basket and the ball fell directly into his hand.

This kid is a great pick-up in the frontcourt rebounds, he is so thief.

After picking up the rebound, Li Liang pretended to shake off Ibaka behind him.

He knew that Ibaka's blocking was great, and then he leaned back and caused Ibaka to foul.

Ibaka sighed helplessly and shook her hand. Why can't she control her legs?

Ibaka wanted to give Li Liang a big hat to kill him for this ball.

Who knew I was fooled again.

Li Liang knew that when facing a blocking maniac like Ibaka, he must not be afraid of not being able to hide.

The more you hide, the more likely you are to be covered. Even if you don’t, you will not be hit in the end.

On the contrary, you should take the initiative to find confrontation and take the initiative to come forward. On the one hand, you can suppress him, and on the other hand, you can commit fouls.

The Lakers' first goal at the start, Li Liang stood on the free throw line.

The entire Ford Center was booed.

Because Li Liang's theory of "appearance" after the game still made the fans of Oxford very angry.

Although everyone thinks what he said makes sense, as a Thunder fan, he should make some statement.

Li Liang also thought that when he went to Ford Center to play tonight, there should be a lot of anger value.

As a result, there were boos and anger worth a few, not much at all.

It seems that Thunder fans also think that Durant is indeed "a little handsome" and has dragged the team down.

You fans really don't care about their idols at all.

If you do this, you will lose your idol.

No matter how loud the booed, Li Liang made two free throws, helping the Lakers score the first record.

The Thunder's offense is still very simple. Westbrook dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and after a pick-and-roll cover, he pulled out his hand from outside the three-point line.

Hit!

Three-pointer!

Westbrook started in a good shape.

Then, the Lakers counterattacked, Kobe got the ball from the outside, and instantly there were three Thunder players surrounding the neighborhood.

Kobe passed the ball and made a sudden step in, trying to pass the ball to Ci Shiping on the wing, but was intercepted by the Thunder!

The Thunder’s defensive strategy tonight is to encircle Kobe!

From the beginning, he adopted a siege and did not double-team, but blocked Kobe's breakthrough line and passing line.

This is a defensive method commonly used against Kobe, cutting off his connection with his teammates.

Although sometimes you don’t have to cut it, he will break the contact by himself.

But Kobe had a good contact in the last game, so he knocked the Thunder.

Brooks didn't dare to be careless and focused on defending Kobe's point at the beginning.

After the steal, Ibaka threw the ball into the frontcourt, and Westbrook had already rushed through the half.

Then the ball was not passed to Westbrook, and Ibaka was touched by Li Liang when throwing the ball.

The ball changed its flight route and flew into Nash's hands. Nash took the ball back.

Now Nash is flat in front of him, and he dribbles through the middle.

Ibaka came to make up for defense, and Westbrook was still rushing back.

Nash, a pass that didn't look at people, was distributed to Li Liang on the wing.

Li Liang received the ball and made a three-pointer.

At the beginning, Li Liang scored 5 points in a row, rebounded in the frontcourt, made a foul free throw, interrupted the Thunder steal, and made a three-pointer.

In previous games, Li Liang played a big role in both the first and second rounds and the first two games of the Western Conference Finals.

But from the scene, they are not visible and silently defending, covering and shooting three-pointers.

The team's light was mainly given to the two elders Xuan Ming, and even Howard. After all, his dunk was very exciting and the block was eye-catching.

After looking at the data at the end of the game, whether it is ordinary or advanced data, you will find that Li Liang is the extremely important one.

But tonight, Li Liang seemed to want to steal the show.
Chapter completed!
