There are many ways to take away the game, such as James, Wade, and one-way operation to take away the Chicago Bulls.

There is also a Lakers star who took the Lakers away with one operation, etc.

Li Liang is a player who is particularly good at killing games with a series of three-pointers.

But because of this, the Spurs and Popovich are defending Li Liang for no reason.

In this game, Li Liang scored a total of 3 three-pointers, either running out of an open position or counterattacking in a fast break.

There were no extra-far three-pointers, no forced moves, and no direct shot after cover.

On the one hand, Li Liang played very cautiously in this game, and on the other hand, the Spurs were doing a good job in defense.

Leonard always effectively defends Li Liang, and Parker, Green or Duncan is always oppressing Li Liang at a high position at any time.

The Spurs played very smoothly in the inside tonight, and one reason was that Li Liang pulled the Spurs' defensive formation very well.

There is no way, this guy's three-pointer is too powerful.

Moreover, the Spurs' strategy continued from the first quarter to the fourth quarter. Popovich had a firm idea. Even if he lost, he could not let Li Liang's three-point shot explode.

If Li Liang was not so efficient tonight - he was really too efficient today and didn't lose any shots.

For example, if the shooting percentage is half, 50%, the Spurs are still comparable to the Clippers.

But Li Liang's unexpected hits every shot, which still put the Spurs in a huge passive state.

Now they are stubbornly chasing to the 6-point difference. When Popovich saw Li Liang appear, he immediately replaced Leonard.

Before playing, Popovich carefully reminded Leonard, and there was no doubt that he had to keep a close eye on Li Liang.

After the timeout, Li Liang held the ball from the outside and handed the ball to Griffin in the bull horn position.

Li Liang moved to the right bottom corner, Crawford came over, received the ball from Griffin's hand, got rid of it horizontally, and then Jordan Jr. came over to cover it.

After two screens, if Crawford can get rid of Parker's defense, he can drive straight into the basket from the right.

If Leonard from the bottom dares to come to assist in defense, Crawford will pass the ball to Li Liang without hesitation, and Li Liang will definitely punish the Spurs with three-pointers.

This is a good tactical design, but the problem is that Crawford did not get rid of Parker after two covers.

As a result, Crawford could only choose to force the shot outside the three-point line and failed to hit.

Jordan Jr. grabbed the frontcourt rebound and passed the ball to Li Liang.

One-on-one wings of Li Liang and Leonard.

Jordan Jr. immediately came over to cover the cover. Leonard had already taken a step forward and got into Li Liang's running position, while getting close to him and was ready to squeeze through the defense.

It is common sense to prevent Li Liang from being able to squeeze through the pick-and-roll. If you bypass it, the result will be that the three-pointer mother explodes.

There is no problem with Leonard's choice, but Li Liang's choice is different from usual.

After Leonard squeezed through the defense, Li Liang grabbed the gap after the pick-and-roll and dribbled the ball with his left hand and broke through the middle!

Duncan came forward to assist in defense, but he didn't dare to stick it too tightly, because Jordan Jordan was so successful that he ate a lot of cakes tonight.

As a result, Li Liang mastered the rhythm and took a step at the free throw line, and suddenly stopped and jumped!

This was a forward shot. Leonard behind him wanted to reach out to cover the block from behind, but ended up hitting Li Liang's arm.

"Beep!"

The referee whistle, Leonard's foul was made, Li Liang's jump shot also hit the basket and scored three points!

To be honest, people will definitely think it will be luck when they see it.

It’s okay to hit the board at 45 degrees, but you also hit the board at the front. Are you Wen Jingyin?

Li Liang knew that this was not luck, it was my strength!

I like to hit the board.

Leonard thought he could win Li Liang because he was not fast and in order to avoid Duncan, he had a slow pace.

As a result, he leaned forward, causing Leonard to not reach and foul on the arm.

Standing on the free throw line, Li Liang hit the free throw.

90:81, Li Liang gave the Clippers fans a reassurance as soon as he came up.

But Danny Green immediately received Parker's pass 45 degrees from the left, making everyone's hearts tight again!

90:84, the Spurs chased each other hard.

The two sides entered a fierce battle of positional war.

At this time, Li Liang ran out of the baseline and suddenly accelerated. He used Jordan's cover to run to the middle lane. Paul got the pass immediately. Li Liang received the ball and stopped in the middle distance and made a jump shot... and shot again!

If there are any shortcomings in Leonard's defense, it is that his off-ball and defense are not particularly good.

Because he is relatively large, he sometimes gets a beat slower when he is around the cover.

As a result, Li Liang seized the opportunity and a cass was in.

Li Liang's shooting feel was very well debugged tonight and was at his peak.

Duncan had already run out to block the ball, but Li Liang still shot it.

But the Spurs' tenacity is irritating.

After receiving Leonard's pass from the top of the arc, Belinelli made a slight adjustment and immediately made a three-pointer from a long distance, which also made a hit!

In the fourth quarter, the Spurs' three-pointer was opened, and all four of them could shoot three-pointers except Duncan on the court.

92:87, the score was closer.

The Clippers fans were so nervous that they couldn't breathe. Their offense could not be stopped.

Everyone's eyes gathered on Li Liang.

Li Liang completed the pick-and-roll with Paul at a high position. He did not cut outside, but went straight down. After receiving Paul's pass, he entered the three-second zone. After pretending to shake Duncan away, he made another emergency stop jump shot!

This guy is really Bob McDou's rebirth. He still chooses to shoot at such a close distance at the basket because he is very confident in his shot.

The ball hit the board and also caused Duncan's defensive foul, which made another three-pointer!

The fans' hearts suddenly relaxed, followed by a burst of cheers.

Hold on, Clippers hold on.

Li Liang went to the free throw line and gave away points. 95:87, it was still a safe point difference.

And the Spurs' offensive feel was finally exhausted.

After three consecutive covers, conducts, and conducts, they still did not find any room for attack.

In the end, Danny Green took the ball and entered the three-second zone, but Li Liang hit the ball in Green's hand.

Without the skill of dribbling, do you still want to rush to the basket?

The Clippers launched a counterattack, and the ball was given to Paul. The Spurs retreated and were still as fast as a whirlwind.

But Paul did not give up the opportunity to others this time, wandering between the three-point line and the three-second zone. After observing, Paul dribbled to the top of the free throw line, and a mid-range emergency stop jump shot shot... The ball entered!

97:87, the score difference has reached 10 points again!

Li Liang and Paul made a series of mid-range jump shots, successfully suppressing the Spurs' counterattack momentum!

Three-pointers are indeed the Clippers' magic weapon to win, but they know that the middle distance is the cemetery for the Spurs to die.

In two minutes, Li Liang scored 8 points in a row, and the score of the whole game reached 36 points, and no free throws were lost.

Even if Li Liang performed so well, with 6 minutes left, the Clippers were only 10 points ahead, and the Spurs still had a chance to turn the tables.

The Clippers didn't dare to be careless at all.

Popovich called for a timeout. After returning from the timeout, Dior took the ball and took a big step to the basket, and then threw the ball behind the back of his head to Berlinelli on the outside.

Belinelli dribbled in and made two steps, making two points in the horn position when he stopped and jumped.

At this critical moment, both sides have inexplicable trust in mid-range jump shots.

Afterwards, the Clippers missed the attack, the Spurs counterattacked, and Duncan quickly got down to the basket and caught the ball and made a layup.

He scored 4 points in a row, and the difference was approaching again.

At the critical moment, Paul played Parker one-on-one on the outside, and after a strong rush to the basket, he made a throw from his left hand.

9991, the competition between the two sides has reached a heightened heat.

In order to chase points, the Spurs opened the entire line and attacked quickly in the third line.

Danny Green took a 45-degree pass from Parker and then shot. The ball was brushed on the basket and finally fell out.

Very dangerous.

Griffin got the rebound and dribbled back by himself. After rushing through half the court, he observed Li Liang in the right corner.

Griffin dribbled to the middle, and then passed the ball to Li Liang with a low hand.

Li Liang received the ball and stopped urgently. He was unable to throw Leonard, but it didn't matter anymore.

Three-point hit rate improvement sticker (a)!
