In the first quarter, the Knights already faintly revealed their killer moves.

Blatt made a small adjustment in personnel rotation. James left the court to rest after playing less than five minutes in the first quarter, then rested for more than two minutes off the court, and then returned to the court to continue the game.

Blatt deliberately staggered the playing time between James and Li Liang, and Bird still rotated according to normal personnel, allowing Li Liang to play until the end of the first quarter to rest.

James continued to stay on the court to lead the team after the start of the second quarter.

This is an advantage for the Cavaliers in the backcourt, because James is not there, and George can play against Li Liang, so that Li Liang will not be left unattended.

When Li Liang is not on the court, who will deal with James? JR-Smith? Or Danny Granger?

Without Li Liang's response, James could obviously play more calmly.

Blatt's second adjustment was to start playing one, one, four, and four on the court.

Mozgoff came off the court to rest, Thompson reached the center position, and James came to the fourth position, against David West.

This is an offensive lineup, and Blatt also believes that James can withstand West.

Just these two adjustments allowed the Cavaliers to start turning around the situation on the field a few minutes before the second quarter.

The Cavaliers started to play fast. After two rounds of force, James cooperated with Delavidova at the top of the arc. As a result, James took the lead and Delavidova's pass was intercepted by Granger.

This was a good steal, and then Granger became a little anxious and passed the ball to Stephenson too casually. He was interrupted by James. James broke through in the middle with the ball and passed the ball to Delavidova on the wing.

Delavidova's shot fake move swung Stephenson, and then made a three-pointer from the right!

The Cavaliers finally made a three-pointer.

Then, West received the ball from a low post and hit James, but it did not push, and the throwing basket after turning around failed to hit.

In the counterattack, James used the ball to hit the basket and passed the ball to Thompson. Thompson caused McGee to make a defensive foul and he wanted to have a free throw.

The Cavaliers have the opportunity to overtake, but unfortunately, Thompson failed to make two free throws, but instead gave the Pacers a chance to counterattack.

Shampoo received a pass from Stephenson on the right wing and made a three-pointer.

But James immediately returned to the basket and attacked McGee. While making a layup, he also caused McGee to foul.

McGee's third foul is about to go off the court.

This kind of foul is the most meaningless and hurts people. If the opponent scores, you will have a free throw, and you will also compensate for a foul.

According to Bird's rotation, Li Liang was not on the court yet, so he had to rest and squeeze him dry in the second half.

But in this situation on the court, after James hit a free throw, the difference between the two sides was only a difference, and Li Liang had to appear.

After replacing McGee on the court, Li Liang rushed to the center position again...

"I, Gan Liliang, this stupid McGee, want me to take you as the center again, damn..."

Li Liang had no choice. The small forward played well in the first quarter, but was automatically sucked into the center position in the second quarter.

You can't let Granger play center, right?

And that's exactly what Blatt, James, wants to see.

Li Liang did not make a foul in the first quarter.

Li Liangyi came on the court and made a three-pointer from the outside and missed a three-pointer.

James counterattacked with the ball at the middle and rushed to the basket with a strong force. After turning his back continuously, he found a gap. He scored two points with his right hand in the three-second zone and overtook!

Apparently, James rested for two minutes in the middle and then fought continuously to make his condition even better on the court.

Li Liang also needs to heat it up a little.

The Cavaliers' defense was a little loose at this time. Stephenson seized the opportunity and gave David West a high hanging. West cut into the inside and took the ball and made a layup easily, and overtook it again.

The two sides began a tug-of-war of differences.

At this time, Blatt began another offensive adjustment - using the pick-and-roll to attack Li Liang in a crazy way.

The Cavaliers obviously tasted the sweetness from the foul trouble in the last game. Li Liang was too important to the Pacers' offensive and defensive system.

It is equivalent to a single-engine fighter. Once the engine is damaged, it will be over.

So, I have to focus on their engine and try to stop it.

After Li Liang replaced McGee, the Cavaliers tried every means to use the pick-and-roll and substitutions, allowing James and Paul George to take turns to use breakthroughs to attack the basket.

As a result, the foul was not caused, and Li Liang was also given two blocks...

After Li Liang made a fuss in the second quarter, he did not rush to attack, but patiently made the defense at the basket first and handed over the offensive end to Stephenson, West and Granger.

Since I am allowed to play as a center, I naturally have to do a good job in the center.

Li Liang's basket protection level has reached a good level after repeated training in the regular season and improvement in the system.

Defending is a very energy-consuming thing.

Many players, especially offensive players, seem to have poor defense and direct traffic. In fact, it is mainly because they consume too much energy in offense and cannot evenly provide defense.

If he temporarily handed over the offensive affairs, it is difficult to guarantee that he would not be able to perform at the best defensive level on the defensive end.

Li Liang contributed the best defensive player-level inside defender defense in the middle of the second quarter. Under the repeated attacks of James and George, he only made a foul once, blocked twice, and interfered with the opponent's layup twice.

Of course, because Li Liang did not score in the offense, the scores of both sides rose alternately. The Cavaliers were unable to completely turn over, and the Pacers had no way to widen the gap. Instead, they had to be careful of being overtaken by the Cavaliers.

Li Liang's excellent performance on the defensive end surprised the Cavaliers.

The scores of both sides came: The Cavaliers have surpassed the Pacers, but Blatt still called a timeout.

The Cavaliers lead, but there are too few leading, and James is about to get off the court.

Of course, James can rest with confidence, because there are no James, and there are two people on the field, Irving and George.

A three-core processor is awesome.

James Jones replaced James, Mozgoff replaced Thompson, and Irving returned to the court to start the main control.

The starting lineup of the Pacers is also back, Kevin Garnett replaced Danny Granger, Hill, and JR Smith all returned to the court.

Li Liang returned to the third position, and the center in the past few minutes finally made him beat him.

Fortunately, there is [Russell's Three-second Zone Fear]. Without this passive skill, Li Liang would definitely be even more passive.

Now he returned to the small forward position and thought, it's my turn to fight back?

So far, Li Liang scored a three-pointer and scored points, and the second quarter ended in minutes.

After the timeout, Irving held the ball from the outside and replaced the defense after pick-and-roll. Irving used his continuous changes to enter the basket and then hit the board with a high throw and a small angle.

The whole process was completed in one go, and West and Garnett both looked a little too old and slow in front of Irving's dribble.

This is also the reason why Bird sometimes has to use Li Liang to top the center.

McGee would be stupid, Garnett and West were old, and he had to make up for the vacancy.

0: The score difference has widened to three points.

Just as Cavaliers fans cheered for this beautiful goal and commentator was amazed at Irving's dribbling skills, Li Liang fought back.

He also dribbled in from the middle, then dribbled in a clever back, caught the crossover and easily passed Mozgov, and then gently picked up the basket with his right hand.

The whole movement was done in one go, so smooth that it made people stunned. Is this Bruce Lee?

Too fast, too smooth.

Of course, he caught the gap in the Cavaliers' defense's inattention, yes, it must be.

However, Li Liang's performance has not ended yet.

Irving attacked with the ball again, but his emergency stop jump shot was disturbed. Li Liang, who was about to be defended, distorted and dodged in the air and passed the ball out.

Finally, George was given a three-pointer at an open position, but he didn't make it...

George's three-pointer really dragged the Cavaliers down, and he couldn't get in many good opportunities.

Li Liang caught this long rebound, and he accelerated his counterattack with the ball again. He dribbled the ball from his crotch and then turned around and passed George. Finally, he faced Mozgov and suddenly stopped and jumped!

Mozgov rushed up and knocked down Li Liang, and the referee fouled!

The ball hit the rebound and bounced into the basket and scored three points!

Li Liang's series of operations are amazing.

Is this still Bruce Lee?

This is obviously the large-sized Irving.

When did he learn this again?
