Chapter 338 Waiting patiently

?In the entire third quarter, the two sides had a tit-for-tat duel.

The scores are rising steadily, but no one can widen the gap to more than 4 points.

James faced the Lakers' defense that gave him a step forward, and did not force a breakthrough, but used his low post and passes to support the Heat's offense.

In the third quarter, the Heat only hit one three-pointer, just like the Lakers.

The Lakers made a three-pointer. After Chalmos hit a three-pointer in the corner, Nash shook Chalmos away in the counterattack and returned an answer      ball.

The intensity of the competition has reached a white-hot level.

The Lakers still rely on frontcourt rebounds to suppress the offensive end. Whenever the Heat can't find offensive means under the Heat's contraction defense, they rely on frontcourt rebounds to prosper.

The Lakers grabbed 5 more frontcourt rebounds in the third quarter, and the number of frontcourt rebounds in the game has already exceeded 10.

The third quarter has just ended, and there is still one more quarter left.

Of course, Kobe's assist is indispensable, but the Lakers have no choice. Howard's low-post offensive efficiency is really not high.

With Li Liang not being able to make a three-pointer, Gasol was attacked by the Heat and could not eat his opponents one after another.

In this case, Kobe's one-on-one singles maintained the increase in the score.

It can be said that fighting on both sides is not easy and hard.

In the third quarter, the game between the two sides reached 69:71, and the Heat will lead by 2 points.

Li Liang sat on the sidelines and drank water in big mouthfuls. He had scored 18 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and won a double-double.

Sweat was covered with all over my body, my hair was wet, and I was pressed on my forehead.

His performance is already excellent enough, defense, rebounds, stealing points, and controlling fouls.

In the second half, he did not give the Heat a chance to cheat and foul, so that he could always stand on the court to play.

But he didn't score three-pointers in his score, and he scored four but failed.

It feels like the Heat are feeling more and more at ease with Li Liang's defense, making Li Liang afraid to vote.

In this case, Spoo was shaken a little bit.

Because the Lakers' frontcourt rebounds were too fierce, one of the reasons was that Haslem Bathir and James had to always keep close to Li Liang.

The Heat don't have a real big center, and they rely on these forwards to grab rebounds. James has gained weight to Duncan just to make up for the inside.

As a result, they had to take turns to focus on Li Liang's point, and they were able to reach a long position, so there were fewer individual rebounds in the inside.

Howard couldn't score at a low post, but he won the frontcourt rebound and dunked it.

Gasol won the frontcourt rebound and dunked another slam. He tried hard to defend himself in front of him, and lost a frontcourt rebound, which was too harmful to morale.

Spoo was hesitating, he really hesitated.

During the break between the three and four quarters, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the bench opposite, and saw Mike Brown holding a tactical board and talking to Li Liang.

Of course, he couldn't hear what he was saying when the distance was too far, but he felt that Brown should be setting up a three-pointer.

Spou didn't believe it either. Li Liang's three-pointer will not be opened and he will not be able to vote.

But what if he really doesn't vote?

After all, the Lakers have Kobe and Nash. Is this point really that important?

Without Li Liang, let's see what the Lakers lineup is, two MVPs, two best defensive players, and one king of Europe

Good, don’t want to know, but when you think about it, you’re shocked, and you feel like you can destroy the Heat at any time.

So, does Li Liang really need to accompany him throughout this process?

If Li Liang actually doesn't make a shot from the third quarter, then can the Heat lead more in the third quarter?

These thoughts flashed through Spob's mind, and he didn't know.

He continued to ask the players to stick to their close defense against Li Liang, including saying to James.

James did not respond, but just wiped his face with a towel.

At the end of the third quarter, James scored 12 points, but had 8 assists and 11 rebounds.

In rebounding, James turned into the Heat's center, and no one except him has rebounded 5 so far.

In this way, Spoul also asked James to pay attention to Li Liang outside the three-point line. He really acted as three people alone.

Seeing that James didn't say anything, Spoul knew that James was a little emotional, and he was indeed responsible for too much.

Without saying anything more, the final battle in the fourth quarter is about to begin.

On the Lakers bench, Li Liang was sweating heavily and listening to Mike Brown's arrangement.

"Bruce, are you tired? Do you want to take a break? Drink more water, drink more, relax, and don't hurry."

Li Liang shook his head. He didn't feel tired, and his mind was still very clear.

The only thing he was worried about was whether his hands were hot enough when he needed to snipe the Heat in the end.

Players play on the court, and they feel the strength of the winner and lose. The Heat are indeed very strong in this game, but Li Liang believes that the Heat are not in good condition.

The best example is the loss of backcourt rebounds.

It’s not that Li Liang’s frontcourt rebounding ability is really strong. Even if he did two tasks, he would only increase to 40 points.

In the final analysis, the Heat are not in good condition and are not focused enough, especially their inside line.

The seven-game battle with the Pacers still has an impact, so Li Liang is confident to help the team win this game.

The key is to see when the time comes and whether Spobey and Heat can tolerate it.

Anyway, Li Liang can still bear it and wait for the Heat to make a mistake.

He is not James and doesn't have to bear so much. He just needs to be his killer and assassin.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers attacked, and they were still two points behind the Heat.

As soon as the Lakers substitute Mix threw a three-pointer from the outside and missed.

Meeks wanted to try the feel of this ball, and the Lakers really needed three points.

The Heat have scored 8 three-pointers in the game, and the Lakers have only scored 3 so far.

The Heat rebounded in the backcourt, Cole slid the ball with the ball and passed the ball to the backhand, and was slapped by O'Neal Jr.

The Lakers counterattacked, and Ci Shiping made a chance at the bottom corner, but he still missed the three-pointer.

But Li Liang, who followed, stole a frontcourt rebound again and made a layup that caused Ray Allen to foul.

"It's Li Liang's frontcourt rebound again. This is the number one in this game? The seventh or eighth one? This frontcourt rebound is really not stuck in the position in the three-second zone. It's just right to play Li Liang, the ball pops up a little far, I picked it up, I'm a little lucky."

Actually, this is not luck, because Li Liang is very familiar with Ci Shiping's ballistics and knows that the ball will not go in. It is a little shorter and a little biased, and it will hit the left side of the basket and fly to 45 degrees, so he just happened to run to that position.

Li Liang stood on the free throw line and made both free throws, and had already scored 20 points.

Currently, his score is the highest in the game. He relies on the frontcourt rebound, steals the ball, has a second offense at the basket, and a mid-range jump shot, scoring 20 points.

A scoring madman like Kobe only scored 15 points.

The Heat allowed Li Liang to score 20 points? Spoel suddenly felt that his defensive strategy seemed a bit unforgivable.

If Li Liang was allowed to shoot a three-pointer, could he really score 20 points so efficiently?

I'm afraid not?

With the Heat's rotation and pressure defense on the outside, they are not targeted normally. Can Li Liang score 7 three-pointers like this?

Spoo was a little messy, the score was tied, and the hustle and bustle of the court began to disturb his thoughts.

The defense intensity of both sides is getting higher and higher, and neither side scores for several rounds.

Every pass starts to become difficult, the ball is no longer stable, and the dribble is a little staggering.

There will be no beautiful counterattack. Both sides of the physical fitness is declining. As the counterattack is fighting, it will turn into a positional battle.

After three minutes in the fourth quarter, the Heat finally relied on Anderson to catch the ball and go to the bottom line to score two points and regain the lead.

However, the Lakers' open three-pointer from the outside was still not made. Li Liang passed a good goal, but unfortunately Meeks was not sure.

During the counterattack, Anderson cut the ball from the basket and wanted to take another counterattack, but was again blocked by O'Neal!

O'Neal Jr. has already given out three big hats in his short playing time. This former All-Star, a veteran with averaging 2.8 hats per game in the season, burst out with his greatest potential.

Then, Mix hit the basket with a strong attack and passed the ball to Li Liang at the high position.

Li Liang received the ball, Bathir came up to defend, and Li Liang passed it to O'Neal Jr. O'Neal Jr. Turned around and hit a hook!

Still tied.75:75!

Two minutes later, the score became 77:75, and the Lakers overtook again.

Meeks made a forced breakthrough and scored a goal under the basket. Spo called a timeout, with 8 minutes left before the end of the game.

After the timeout, both main players appeared. Li Liang came out to rest for a while and was ready to play the last four minutes.

Li Liang knew that this would be the four minutes that Spobey and the Heat were most likely to be relaxed, and what he had to do was still to wait.

Also, I pray that the old department will not make the difference too big.
