Chapter 382: The Problem of Substitutes(2/2)
The Lakers had no other way. After using the screen, Nash took the lead and rushed to the horn position, and made two points after a quick stop.
Now the Lakers rely on Nash's singles.
Nash hit a goal, and Li Liang glared at Paul.
Li Liang didn't say anything this time, but Paul felt the pressure.
So, in the next attack, Paul played Nash one-on-one with the ball from the wing.
He took the ball and walked to the bottom line, then made a back jump shot and hit!
2o:6.
Then, both sides entered a period of calm.
The Lakers started scoring, and except for Nash, Meeks made a two-pointer.
Then, Griffin received Li Liang's pass and broke into the basket and dunked with his left hand!
After playing for about seven or eight minutes at the beginning, both sides were very civilized and there was no free throw so far.
In addition to the fact that the intensity of both sides has not yet risen due to the season opening game, the Lakers are not strong enough.
He was a little confused by the Clippers' punches at the beginning.
When the score became 24:8, both sides entered an official timeout.
Rivers rotated personnel and replaced Li Liang with Matt Barnes.
This was a rotation determined by Rivers. When he played more than half of the first quarter, Li Liang was allowed to rest.
In the second team, Paul was allowed to play with him, and Li Liang was allowed to appear in the middle of the second quarter.
To be honest, Li Liang is not very interested in this rotation method.
He felt that he had been resting for too long.
But Rivers, after all, needs some face to coach.
Besides, the team has played very well so far in the first game, so let’s just obey Rivers’ rotation arrangements.
When the team can't play one day, Rivers will naturally let Li Liangduo play.
At the end of the first quarter, the score between the two sides was 31:16, and the Clippers led the Lakers by as much as 15 points.
It seems that the game is no longer suspense.
But this is just the first quarter, and the Lakers are not so easy to be beaten to death.
Li Liang sat off the court and watched the game on the court with a serious look on his face. Both sides were substitutes in the second quarter.
At this time, the Clippers began to have some problems on the field.
Crawford played on the court with a substitute, but on the defensive end, the basket was first left clean. After Blake slipped through the baseline, he passed the ball back to Gasol at the basket, and Gasol easily made a layup.
Then Crawford missed the outside jump shot, the Lakers quickly made a counterattack, and Gasol again, making a dunk easily at the basket.
Substitute inside Hollins did not keep up with Gasol at all.
Then, Hollins cut the basket and missed a simple layup.
The Lakers counterattacked, Gasol made a high-level pass, Xavier Henry cut a short cut, and caught the ball and made a layup!
The Lakers played the Clippers at the beginning of the second quarter with a 6:o.
Rivers immediately called a timeout, and the score difference changed from 15 points to 9 points.
The Clippers' bench was a little silent, but as long as there was Li Liang, there would be no real silence.
"What are you defending and what are you? If you don't know how to defend, I don't mind opening a defensive training class to teach you how to defend, for free!"
Rivers originally wanted to speak to motivate the players, but was interrupted by Li Liang's scolding. He didn't know what to say.
"Uh...uh, we have a little problem with our defense."
It was over, all the chicken soup that reached the mouth was washed away, and I didn’t know what to say.
But the Clippers' substitute defense is really a big problem.
Rivers suddenly felt that the task was long.
