Chapter 836 Gamblers(1/2)
Li Liang thought about throwing more, but when the hit rate dropped, he couldn't throw it in, so he stopped throwing it.
But even Li Liang himself did not expect that it seemed that he had been in.
After returning from the timeout, the Lakers made two three-pointers in a row, and Kobe also made two free throws.
But the Thunder still maintained the lead because Li Liang also scored two three-pointers and assisted Adams in the high position in the inside, allowing Adams to easily dunk.
Roy Hibert is obviously a bit cumbersome in the inside.
When Li Liang was on the court, the outside line actually needed the density of defense.
But Hibert's movement speed is a problem, and when he tries to come out to help with defense, he often cannot take it back.
As a result, the inside line was empty.
Hibert's best defense is to stand on the stance, but when the Thunder's offense all came from outside shooting, Hibert began to run back and forth on the court.
During the offense, Hibert's significance was limited.
On the court, Kobe passed Hibert twice, allowing him to take it at the low post.
As a result, he failed to hit both hooks and could not hit Adams.
The inside line was missed, and the Thunder also gave the opportunity to counterattack.
If Leonard hadn't reacted quickly, and had a steal or a frontcourt rebound, the Lakers' score difference would have been widened.
Of course, the Thunder also has a problem, that is, their reliable offensive point is only Li Liang.
The Lakers began to double-team Li Liang, while Li Liang tried to pass the ball in, to Adams, and to the empty cut Witters, attacking the Lakers' inside line.
Hibert, a big man who once performed well with the Pacers and was called "Black Yao Ming" two seasons ago, began to become a defensive insider who may not be as good as McGee.
After more than five minutes in the third quarter, Hibert made a malicious foul on Adams in a defense, and the referee called him a technical foul.
Adams scored a free throw, and Scott replaced Hibert.
Hibert looked a little annoyed. Now he can play a little longer on the weak team and show off his low-post skills.
Once he faces a slightly stronger team, he will attack quickly, and three-pointers from the outside are one after another, which will make him feel particularly burdensome.
Adams threw two free throws, but failed to score two free throws...
There is also a chance to go to the sideline.
Leonard stared at Li Liang, ready to take advantage of Li Liang's three-pointer at any time.
But how to prevent this?
Li Liang received the serve from the outside, and at this time he was standing three steps away from the three-point line.
Logically speaking, if you defend against ordinary players, you can take three steps away, just stand two steps behind and stand at the three-point line to defend.
But if you want to be so careful of Li Liang, he will pull it up and throw it away, and the hit rate is not low.
What if you are close to your body? Then the gap that leaks behind will be too big, and Li Liang will break through.
So, why does a coach like Stevens place a triple defense for Li Liang?
On the Lakers side, Leonard still insists on one-on-one single defense.
Scott still doesn't want to use the playoff strategy, while Leonard wants to continue challenging himself.
However, Li Liang did not give him this opportunity. After Adams came to pick-and-roll, Li Liang passed the ball to Adams.
Adams broke through with the ball in the middle and chose a small throw to hit two points against Love.
Li Liang returned to defense, and then a word floated over inexplicably, [Anger value of 10, from Kawyne-Leonard].
Li Liang was simply inexplicable. Why are you angry, man?
What's your anger? Brother, do you want to be angry when I pass the ball and assist the pick-and-roll?
But Li Liang was not sure, maybe he was angry about the first half?
Anyway, there are no clues on Leonard's face.
However, Leonard quickly stepped up the offense.
He received a pass from Clarkson from the outside, and after pretending to shake Robertson away, he used the ball to break into the inside, and grabbed the ball with one hand and made a hit!
Leonard's breakthrough is still a little stiff, but the speed, cutting angle, and the visual shock brought by one-handed grabbing are still very strong.
Immediately, Li Liang received the serve in the backcourt, and after halftime, he was still at the position just now, and he was one-on-one with Leonard.
This time, Li Liang did not pass the ball again.
When Leonard forced him up, Li Liang chose to break through.
He entered the middle, and Love came to assist in defense, and Li Liang made a quick stop and jump shot from mid-range.
Not only did he hit, he also caused Leonard's defensive foul, and he would have to be punished!
Leonard argued with the referee, but it was useless.
Li Liang made a penalty and successfully hit 21.
Li Liang has become more proficient and precise in the mid-range jump shot.
Although he is a little worse than Durant in terms of accuracy, because his three-pointer threat is huge, he can always find a good shot for himself.
Leonard has been in dispute with Li Liang.
When he arrived at the offensive end, Leonard took Kobe's pass and played Li Liang in the middle.
Under Li Liang's tight defense, he stopped and made a jump shot in the bull horn position.
When Li Liang saw it, he said, "Good boy, I'm comparing shooting with me, right?"
I took this bet.
So Li Liang decided to use props.
He summoned [Kodinger's Dice] from the system and he decided to take a gamble.
In the previous game, like the game where the Blazers was opened, Li Liang used Kodinger's dice at the last moment.
The result was very unlucky. I threw a black six, which was so miserable.
He stubbornly broke into the basket and didn't bring in the layup.
Pass the ball to his teammates, but his teammates dare not throw it.
If you want to crack this bad luck, you can only use the frontcourt rebounding technique, and you will not make a fuss at the basket, grab, grab, grab, and stop making, and spend all the shots.
Unfortunately, there was not enough time for that game and I finally lost the game.
Li Liang then decided that unless he had a lucky hand, he would never use this dice in the game again.
However, people are gambled.
Once you lose the bet, you will definitely think about doing it again and you must win next time.
Li Liang thought to himself, Kobe is here tonight, I don’t believe it will be bad!
【Use Codinger's dice!】
Li Liang threw a dice that only he could see. The big dice rolled a few laps on the court, and finally the red 3 side was facing up.
"yes!" Li Liang was very excited and clenched his fists.
Even though this cheating force is already very strong, he is still very enthusiastic about cheating and likes it.
He is really a shameless person.
With the blessing of dice, Li Liang naturally started his performance.
He had already scored two three-pointers in the third quarter. This time he passed the half, he took the pass from Waiters and immediately broke through with the ball.
Then stop at the top of the arc and make a quick three-pointer!
Leonard kept close to Li Liang. He defended the ball very well and almost touched the ball with his hands.
Li Liang's attack posture is also awkward, and he has to vote in this case.
But the ball still passed through the heart and made a three-pointer!
Leonard felt a little sweaty in his palms, and a bad feeling came.
This guy is about to start, this rhythm, this rhythm that ignores everything and can enter anyway throw it in.
Kobe also realized this. After hitting a mid-range distance, Kobe began to siege Li Liang with Leonard.
But Li Liang took advantage of Adams for a while and received a pass from the left 45 degrees. He took a step back and took action again!
When you get the dice blessing, unless you cover Li Liang, or Li Liang will make a blind shot in the opposite direction, you will definitely make an attempt after you make a normal move.
"Swish!" The ball was hollowed into the net again. Li Liang felt that he felt great. Maybe he could hit it without dice?
After two consecutive three-pointers, the energy center began to get hot.
Scott couldn't sit still.
And Mike Brown felt that he saw 100% Li Liang.
