The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 303 The Young King (9700 word chapter)
On the night of May 5, G21 of the Western Conference Finals had just ended, and the audience in the Staples Arena were celebrating the Clippers' victory.

98:108, through the excellent performance in the first quarter, the Clippers always firmly grasped the lead and finally succeeded in protecting their home court.

Chris Paul played 34 minutes in this game. Coach De Nagro did not have a hard time hitting the main force. This also made Paul, who had eased his physical condition, gradually regain his rhythm in the next three quarters. .

He made 14 of 6 in the game, including 5 of 2 three-pointers, 6 of 4 free throws, 18 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 turnover. He played at a completely normal level. In his normal physical condition, Paul still performed well. own task.

Therefore, in an interview with ESPN reporters after the game, Paul also seemed very happy:
"We are an excellent team. Although this is my first time playing in the Western Conference Finals, I am confident that I can control the rhythm of the team. The Spurs have a lot of experience in the game, but we have protected the home and away games. Our goal is to get a win."

With a well-regulated answer, the ESPN reporter nodded with a smile, and then asked a question again:
"How does it feel to play with Kayce in the backcourt? Everyone always compares the Thunder to the Clippers this season, and now they lead 2-0 in the Western Conference finals. What do you think of that?"

"Great! Kayce is a super scorer, he raised the ceiling of our team, so that we don't have to worry about offense."

"Now we just have to do our job, the team is on the right path, of course, compared to the Thunder, we have a long way to go, they won two championships, and our work is still there. Failed to complete."

Paul simply replied with a smile. Although the big score is 2:0, he knows how difficult it is for the team to win. If Li Ze scores 30 points, maybe the Clippers will lose
After Paul returned to the locker room again, Steve Ballmer immediately patted him on the shoulder, and then said very excitedly:

"Perfect game! I'm so proud of everyone, God! We're already 2-0 up and we have a chance to reach the finals!"

"Wow! I promise everyone, the team will get better and better, we will have our own stadium, and we will re-establish the team culture of the Clippers."

The old man was excited and crazily drawing cakes, but everyone in the Clippers team thought that this cake might really come true considering this man's net worth.

After all, the team will definitely pay the luxury tax next year, maintain three maximum salaries, and add suitable rotation players, perhaps the Clippers' salary will directly catch up with the Lakers
"Kayce, our superstar, I guarantee that the best players in the league will always play in the Clippers, Come on! Let's win this series, the Finals are already beckoning us!"

The old man shook his fist first, and then began to applaud passionately. The staff immediately followed suit, and Li Ze and everyone in the Clippers also booed. No matter what the offseason is, everyone just wants to reach the finals now.

In the NBA, most fans only remember the victory. ESPN, as the broadcaster of the Western Conference Finals, immediately praised Li Ze's performance just after the game ended.

B/R immediately updated a poster on INS shortly after the game ended, with a picture of Li Ze breaking through Duncan's defense and completing a dunk, paired with the data of this game, and finally posted a picture Text:

"Witness greatness! Superstars rule the game again! 3 MVPs! (?) FMVP?"

Although the whistle in the second half was indeed a bit off, how could the fans pay attention to these things, everyone was attracted by Li Ze's high score.

As for Popovich's complaints, no one cares at all except for the discussions among Spurs fans.

What's more, if there is no home court advantage, everyone doesn't have to work hard to fight for the regular season record
The Clippers have more than three days of rest, and the G25 game will officially start on the 3th.

On the evening of the 22nd, the Eastern Conference Finals G1 that fans were looking forward to finally started.

The two sides played extremely fiercely in this game. Paul George hit a key three-pointer at the last moment and successfully helped the Pacers equalize the score.

At 92:92, the two sides entered overtime, and then the two sides fought to the last moment. With 6.8 seconds left in the game, George Hill intercepted Norris Cole, and Paul George finally caused a foul by Wade. Get three free throws.

With three free throws made, 102:101, the Pacers were only 2.2 seconds away from victory.

But at the last moment, there was a problem with the defense, LeBron James continued to break through, and the buzzer lore!

102:103, the Heat won the game with difficulty and successfully protected their home court.

保罗-乔治全场16中7，其中三分球6中3，罚球11中10，砍下27分4篮板5助攻6失误。

大卫-韦斯特17中11，同样也拿到了26分5篮板1助攻4失误，中锋罗伊-希伯特18中9也有19分9篮板2盖帽入账。

It's a pity that the Pacers, who had blossomed a lot, finally lost the game regrettably, but for Amerika's sports media, this game was simply heaven!

出场47分钟的勒布朗-詹姆斯，24中12，其中三分球6中2，罚球7中4，在关键时刻挺身而出，最后砍下30分10篮板10助攻3盖帽4失误的三双数据！
The game had just ended, and the heat exploded immediately. Everyone was wildly praising James' performance. The Chosen One proved himself once again!

The sloppy media reporters seem to have forgotten the previous mockery of James, victory can cover up everything!
Li Ze took Annie to Paul's house as a guest, and the two also watched the game. Maybe everyone saw the wonderful performance of LeBron James, but Paul said with emotion:

“15中9，19分6篮板5助攻3抢断1盖帽3失误，韦德今年状态很好，波什11中6，拿到17分2篮板2盖帽，克里斯-安德森7中7，砍下16分，轮换阵容也发挥出色，热火队磨合成功了。”

Of course, Li Ze knows the state of the Heat. This season has won 24 consecutive victories. It is obvious that LeBron James has completely controlled the Heat. The three of them have made sacrifices for each other. This year may be the pinnacle of brother basketball!

"It's still the same. The Heat will definitely not win too easily. In the second quarter with 2 points in a single quarter, the offense was cut off. In the past two years, this situation has often happened. Now it seems that the Heat still have not been able to solve this problem. .”

Paul nodded when he heard Li Ze's words, but he couldn't help but lament Li Ze's scoring stability. He understood why the Thunder were able to sweep the Heat for two consecutive years.

As long as the lead is achieved and the point difference widens to about 10 points, Li Ze will not let up when the two sides hit the ball in response. In addition to the Thunder and Durant, the two scoring champions are swapped, and the Heat are indeed no match.
It’s just that when thinking about the situation of the Clippers, Paul is always a little worried. He knows his own ability very well, and with Griffin injured, he is always worried about a sudden capsize. The situation is not common.

When Annie drove Li Ze home, the black-haired sister Yu who was driving suddenly sighed:

"Time flies, you are almost 23 years old, fortunately back in Los Angeles, I like life now, how about we have a baby?"

Li Ze, who was eating popcorn, almost choked, but when he heard this kind of life-threatening question, he could only express his opinion immediately:
"Everything is God's will! As long as the fate comes, we will have children!"

The black-haired sister Yu gave Li Ze an angry look, and complained:

"You don't believe in God at all! Obviously we have no protection, and we are very healthy. Maybe I have to go to church to pray this week."

When Li Ze heard that Annie was going to church to give money again, he suddenly said with a smirk:

"Maybe it has something to do with the environment. Tonight we can try new knowledge on this Bugatti Veyron!"

Annie, who was driving, couldn't help stretching out her right hand, twisted Li Ze, and complained with a reddish face:

"I will not accompany you to do such ridiculous things!"

"."

On the other side of the ocean, after LeBron James beat the Pacers, Hupu became James again. James, who has been suppressed for many years, is proud today:

"I'm Zhan Niu X! Completed the lore and got a triple-double!"

"Heat champion! It's too powerful, 2.2 seconds lore game, I'm invincible."

"What's there to brag about? Li Ze beat the Grizzlies in 1.1 seconds. I haven't seen you posting yet."

"The Big Three are invincible! The Heat Dynasty is about to start! No one will come this year."

"Here it comes, Jamie came to loan the championship again. How many times is this the first time? The seven promised back then have not been seen now."

"Hehe, if I, Zhan, could form a team with the scoring champion, I would have already won the championship!"

"Teammate CBA? Wasn't Wade the scoring leader in 08-09?"

"The Heat rely on me, James. Wade and Bosh would have died a long time ago, otherwise they wouldn't have lost in the past two years."

"Did you forget 8 points again? Lost two championships in a row, and James came out for a loan?"

"."

Maybe it's because the Clippers don't have enough stars, and Griffin's injury caused Heat fans to jump up and down. Of course, for James, this year is indeed the best opportunity.

The Thunder disintegrated, the Heat were at their peak, and neither the Spurs nor the Clippers seemed too strong. After all, the Big Three of the Heat are all in a healthy state.

In this case, when LeBron James, who just killed the Pacers, was interviewed by ESPN on the sidelines, he seemed very high-spirited and even made a direct guarantee:
"You know, I've always been a big-time player. At the same time, I also thank the coaching staff for formulating excellent tactics for us, and thank my teammates for fighting until the end."

"The Eastern Conference finals are just the beginning. We will reach the finals and win the championship! I will fulfill my promise!"

The team won the victory, and Wade was also very happy. Taking advantage of the interview, he also shouted to the camera:

"Hey! We'll keep winning!"

Obviously, without the Thunder, the old sufferer, the confidence of the Big Three has greatly increased!Bosh also laughed on the sidelines. That night, the American Airlines Arena was full of joy.

There was no game on May 5, and the NBA took the opportunity to announce the best defensive lineup of the season:
On the guard line, Chris Paul and Li Ze were successfully selected;
Up front are LeBron James and Serge Ibaka;
Center is Marc Gasol.

Still the old rules, steals king, blocks king, DPOY were re-elected, plus Li Ze with 27 consecutive victories and LeBron James with 24 consecutive victories, the best defensive team is impeccable.
Due to the same score, the best defensive second team has 6 players:
Mike Conley, Tony Allen, Russell Westbrook, Paul George, Tim Duncan, Joakim Noah.

Li Ze did bring a bit of a butterfly effect. Although Guigui still needs the ball, he has regained the defensive attitude he had in college.

No matter what the future holds, Turtle's willingness to defend this season has not declined in the slightest compared to the championship season.

The 37-year-old Duncan was selected for the second defensive team, and once again showed his influence. Compared with his past, his state has indeed declined, but compared to others, the old man is still an excellent defender.

Three of the Grizzlies were selected to the best defensive team, and two of the Clippers were selected to the best defensive team. After seeing this result, the fans briefly reviewed the previous Western Conference semifinals and found that the two sides did show excellent defense. .

The fans of the two teams were overjoyed, especially the fans of the Grizzlies. It is not easy for a small ball market to have so many excellent players.

The Clippers immediately updated the posters of Li Ze and Paul on the official website, and also sent a tweet:
"Integration of offense and defense, the strongest backcourt in the league! (Crown.jpg) #新新王# Clippers logging tired"

When Li Ze saw this tweet, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth, he always felt that the king was going to become a wholesale product
On May 5, the Clippers set off for San Antonio, where they will play G24 tomorrow night.

G2 of the Eastern Conference Finals also officially started that night.

To the disappointment of Heat fans, that night, with their excellent defense, the Pacers managed to win an away game.

At 97:93, after the Pacers won the game, they successfully tied the big score to 1:1.

罗伊-希伯特本场比赛统治内线，15中10，砍下29分10篮板1助攻4失误，彻底打爆了热火队的内线。

保罗-乔治16中9，砍下22分2篮板6助攻2失误。

Coupled with the fact that other players also performed well, the more blossoming Pacers gave the Heat a blow.

LeBron James, who played 45 minutes, also performed very well:
20中14，其中三分球7中3，罚球7中5，砍下36分8篮板3助攻3抢断1盖帽5失误，投篮命中率高达70%！

Although he lost the game, many Jamie shouted again after the game:
"The Heat lost! I, Zhan, didn't lose!"

On May 5th, the NBA once again announced the best lineup for the 25~2012 season:
The top 5 players in the first team are:

Chris Paul, Li Ze, Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Tim Duncan.

The five best second team players are:

Russell Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Blake Griffin, Marc Gasol.

The five players in the best three teams are:

Tony Parker, Dwyane Wade, James Harden, Paul George, Dwight Howard.

The best lineup has just been announced, and the comets are frying:
"Why is the volute in the second formation?"

The Comets were dissatisfied, and Howard was also almost blown away. He was still in the first team last season, but he came to Los Angeles and fell to the third team. Is there any reason?

However, Amerika's sports media did not have much doubt about the selection of the lineup.

It's just that many people lamented that if the Thunder hadn't disintegrated, they would have won three consecutive championships this season without any suspense!
2012~2013赛季，杜兰特场均砍下28.1分4.6助攻1.4抢断1.3盖帽3.5失误。

He averaged 17.7 shots per game, shooting 51% from the field, 41.6% from three-pointers, and 90.5% from free throws.

This is also the second youngest 2 club record after Li Ze!
This season, Lee Zee averaged 22.6 shots per game, ranking first in the league. Even if some were allocated to Durant, the two were used as the end point, and single play alone might kill all teams.

Coupled with the average of 23.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.8 steals and 3.3 turnovers per game, Ibaka, who is the second defense and the first defense, may crush all opponents on both offensive and defensive ends. In this regard, the Oklahoma City fans once again broke the defense :
"The management should eat shit! You have destroyed the dynasty team with your own hands!"

On the night of the 25th, everyone in the Clippers was celebrating that Li Ze and Paul were selected to the best team, and Griffin was selected to the best second team.

In the game that night, the Clippers were directly shot by the Spurs.

At 102:113, the Spurs returned home and easily defeated the Clippers, tying the series to 1:2.

The number of rebounds in this game was 37:48. Coach Popovich seemed to have found the weakness of the Clippers. He no longer emphasized too much on defense and strengthened rebounds and three-pointers.

Tim Duncan grabbed 7 offensive rebounds alone, and the violent old man completely blasted Turiaf and Jordan.

Although the score was not high, he only scored 12 points, but the 14 rebounds were really terrible.

Although Tony Parker scored 8 of 2 and only scored 6 points, Gary Neal on the bench played a crazy performance.

17中9，其中三分球10中6，高效砍下24分！
Throughout the game, the Spurs made 32 of 16 three-pointers and shot 50% from the field. Popovich, a bad old man, killed the game in another way after adjustment.

The game had just ended, and the audience in the AT Center Arena was still cheering wildly for the home team's victory.

For the Spurs fans, the hearty victory tonight once again gave them hope of reaching the finals!

Li Ze shook hands with everyone in the Spurs calmly. The crazy three-pointer can indeed win the game, but he doesn't believe that the Spurs will win the next series.

Although his game experience is not very rich, but in terms of playoff experience, Li Ze, who has played in the Western Conference Finals for three consecutive years, is no longer a rookie who will panic after losing a game.

Back in the locker room, noticing that Chris Paul was a little annoyed, Li Ze sat back in his seat, grabbed the ice pack, and comforted him with a smile:
"Don't pay too much attention to the opponent's three-pointers, 50% hit rate is not common!"

Chris Paul patted his thigh and said with some frustration:

"It's my problem. We shouldn't follow the opponent to shoot three-pointers. We lost our rhythm of the game."

Billups on the side seemed to recall the Spurs in the 05-06 season, and sighed in his heart:
"Unbelievable! The Spurs would choose to shoot a lot of three-pointers. Perhaps, I am really behind."

Losing a game so simply made Amelia's sports media become fools again, and they fell to the Spurs one after another. TNT made a post-match comment after the game:

"As I expected, the Spurs will win this series!"

"The 37-year-old Duncan exploded the inside of the Clippers. If I were Steve Ballmer, I would sign a few more tough big men in the offseason. Rebounding is the key!"

Charles Barkley once again criticized the Clippers' inside line, and O'Neal on the side laughed lowly, and immediately agreed:
"I agree with Chuck. I don't want to emphasize the offensive ability of the low post anymore, but Andrew Jordan also has problems with the rebounding position. It can only be said that the inside line of the league is withered. In the past, big men who would only jump stupidly You can’t get that much money.”

Kenny Smith heard the two talking more and more crookedly, and began to discuss how much money the big man in the past could get in the current league. He immediately coughed lightly, and said helplessly:
"Okay, guys! 50% of the outside shots, no one can withstand such an offense, I think the Clippers' perimeter defense has a problem!"

The host Ernie Johnson immediately took over the conversation, looked at the technical statistics in his hand, and praised Popovich's adjustment:
"The Spurs completely changed their tactics in the first two games. Leonard and Danny Green showed energy."

"When Kayce switched to Leonard in the second half, Danny Green broke out completely, making 15 of 8, including 9 of 6 three-pointers, and scored 24 points."

"Leonard didn't score much, only 11 points, but grabbed 10 rebounds, and even had 3 offensive baskets in the first half. Popovich's adjustments were very effective!"

Charles Barkley immediately laughed when he heard what the two said, and then said in a joking tone:
"Do you think the Clippers are going to win the series?"

"I'm not sure, maybe the two sides will fight to the end!"

"."

Li Ze had just won the double first team honor, and all the Chinese fans on the other side of the ocean were overjoyed, but after losing the game, some sunspots on the Hupu forum couldn't help it:

"Playing is unreasonable at all, 28 shots, it's strange to win!"

"It's still me, Zhan, who has comprehensive skills and can drive teammates. The Heat are stable."

“詹密滚出！28中16，三分球4中2，这命中率有问题吗？超过五成出手30次都没问题！”

"Why pass the ball? With Paul here, Li Ze is responsible for scoring. 43 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 3 turnovers. Can this statistic be black?"

"27 of 8 from outside, the Clippers shouldn't be throwing three-pointers, Li Zeniu X! This season, he won the MVP!"

"Lize is the same as Kobe. A person with a high score will definitely not be able to win the game."

"What's wrong with the volute? 5 championships! 5 is greater than 0, so stay away from Jamie!"

Although the Clippers lost the game, the headlines of the night still belonged to Li Ze.

The NBA League also released a poster of Li Ze on INS, listing Li Ze's current honors, with a line of text:
"Witness the greatness! 4 years and 3 episodes!!"

At the same time, the official Twitter of the NBA League listed Li Ze's current honors in detail, and compared LeBron James' rookie four years by the way.

LeBron James was selected to the All-Star three times in the first 4 years of his career, was selected to the second team of the best team twice, and was selected to the first team once, and was completely suppressed by Li Ze.
Some James thought that Li Ze's two championships were all won by James, and immediately broke the defense.

Just one minute after this tweet was posted, Durant, who was bored of fishing and swiping Twitter in advance, picked up a lemon again, and then immediately reposted it with a comment:

"Young King (Crown.jpg)"

Immediately afterwards, Turtle, Love, and Holiday immediately followed and reposted, and a large number of young players all began to follow Durant's comments. For a while, they were all "young kings" that night.
On the morning of the 26th, although LeBron James announced that he would not watch social media during the playoffs, everyone in the Heat team did not have this habit, and everyone would naturally gossip about Li Ze's achievements.

LeBron James likes to use King to describe himself after he entered the league. As a result, the King has not officially become the king these years, and he seems to have passed away.

At lunch, I saw my good brother Wade scrolling through Twitter, and after a casual glance, I saw a bunch of "young kings", and I was almost full of anger.

Looking at the sullen James, Wade didn't know how to comfort him. After all, he had lost a lot of honor in the past two years.

In the game that night, all members of the Heat team broke out in the away game. They easily defeated the Pacers 114:96, and the big score came to 2:1, regaining the initiative.

勒布朗-詹姆斯17中8，平平无奇的砍下22分4篮板3助攻。

And Paul George, who performed well in the first two games, was completely restricted and entered a super ghost state.

10 of 3, 13 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and [-] turnovers. The statistics look good, but they are almost completely suppressed by James on both offensive and defensive ends.

The upsurge of Li Ze's four-year-three period has not yet passed. On the night of the 4th, the Clippers were directly knocked down by technology.

Popovich, the bad old man, had a complete showdown, and he directly put on a lineup of one big and four small ones that night:

Tony Parker and Ginobili partnered in the backcourt, with Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard up front and Tim Duncan at center.

The GDP fit together, and Leonard played at the 4th position. This starting lineup looked silly to coach De Nagro.

Split almost fell out of the rotation, and the Spurs almost had a 7-man rotation. In such a critical game, the playing time of the starting lineup rose directly to about 40 minutes.

憋屈了几场的托尼-帕克在这套5外阵容的体系下，彻底暴发，14中10，砍下26分1篮板5助攻3失误。

What embarrassed the Clippers coaching staff the most was that when Leonard defended the 4th position, Turiaf was unable to complete the big play. As for Jordan, he also couldn't punish the insiders of this lineup.

Coupled with the fact that there are almost unlimited defense changes on the outside, the Spurs' strikers take turns defending Li Ze, and their physical condition has also improved.

This small lineup completely stunned the Clippers, 102:114. The Spurs easily protected their home court and successfully tied the big score at 2:2.

上一场比赛17中8，其中三分球6中2，罚球4中4，砍下22分4篮板6助攻的保罗今晚彻底拉跨了。

18中6，其中三分球4中1，罚球6中4，17分4篮板5助攻4失误，保罗完全迷失在了马刺队的换防之下。

All the sports media in Amerika sang the praises of the Spurs, and some doubts about Duncan's selection to the best team disappeared.

10 of 7, 17 points and 12 rebounds, the old man easily scored a double-double again.

After the game, the coaching staff didn't say much. It is estimated that they will watch the video of the game overnight, and the Clippers have only one more day to adjust.

Unexpectedly, Popovich, who successfully changed his tactics, still said calmly at the press conference after the game:

"We're going to win the series! I'm so proud of my guys, they did everything the coaching staff asked of them, obviously, we're the better team!"

Amerika's sports reporters recalled that 2013 was still an odd-numbered year. Under the blessing of metaphysics, all of them became useless for a while, and many people even shouted directly:
"Spurs Championship!"

Li Ze didn't give too many interviews after the game. After losing in this way, everyone in the Clippers was a little confused.

In addition, after finishing the press conference, the time is already close to 0:[-], everyone hastened to rest after returning to the hotel, and they will fly back to Los Angeles tomorrow morning.

After returning to his room, Li Ze couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows. The Spurs' outside shooting percentage has indeed dropped 22 of 9, and their three-point shooting percentage is 40.9%.

Finally lying on the big bed, Li Ze couldn't help muttering in his heart:

"29 shots, can't you win?"

After the game, Amerika fans on Reddit were discussing wildly:

"It's crazy! Don't future teams need big men anymore?"

"Shet! It's just that Turiaf and Andrew Jordan can't punish the Spurs inside. If we have a big man who can attack in the low post, the Spurs will never use this lineup."

"Leonard's defense is underestimated! Although he can't limit Kayce, he can switch to Paul. It's incredible. Danny Green is also an excellent defender. I'm proud of the team!"

"Gary Neal and Diaw are also important rotations, God! I have a hunch, we will reach the finals! Kayce scored another 46 points tonight. It feels great to beat him!"

"You are all thieves! Obviously the Thunder is the championship!"

"Another crazy one, I love seeing Thunder fans pissed off."

On May 5, the Clippers back in Los Angeles did not have much rest time. The coaching staff took everyone to watch the video of the G28 game repeatedly.

It’s just that the more you look at it, the colder it is. The Spurs’ first and fourth juniors are simply deadly. If Paul’s condition is normal, Danny Green and Leonard who have switched defenses have no advantage. The opponent’s defensive mobility is extremely strong. .

The most important thing is that Duncan can always make the right defensive choices, coupled with the instability of Jordan's free throws, the Spurs have begun to use foul tactics.

When the restorative training session in the afternoon was over, Li Ze, who hadn't said much, suddenly clapped his hands, and said in a relaxed tone:
"Don't worry about offense. Don't forget that the opponent only has more than one day to rest. Guys, we need a tough defense!"

"Switch up, press, and consume them. We still have home court advantage. Tomorrow night's game will show our tough attitude. Victory will eventually belong to us!"

Billups immediately took over the conversation and said firmly:

"I know the Spurs, they are indeed a difficult opponent, but don't forget, we have super scorers, do a good job defensively, don't care about fouls, win the battle of Tianwangshan, and we can reach the finals!"

Most of the players in the Clippers did not have a championship, and everyone was screaming with milk. Griffin even wanted to play with an injury, but was finally persuaded by the coaching staff.
That night, G4 of the Eastern Conference Finals also continued to fight.

The fans of the Heat thought that the team would win the game directly in one go, but the Heat's inside line was blown up again.

虽然保罗-乔治又拉胯了，但罗伊-希伯特本场比赛16中10，砍下23分12篮板2失误。

Pulling to the outside line frequently and opening up space for his teammates did not play much role. Chris Bosh scored 6 of 1 and scored 7 points with free throws.

勒布朗-詹姆斯18中8，其中三分球7中4，罚球6中4，平平无奇的砍下了24分6篮板5助攻1抢断3盖帽2失误。

30:49的篮板数足以说明双方内线实力的差距，最终，92:99，步行者队顽强的将大比分扳成2:2平。

Both the eastern and western leagues will hold the battle of Tianwangshan. The NBA is overjoyed. This is the result they want to see. If they can both play the tiebreaker, it will definitely be a big win for the league!

On the night of May 5th, the Staples Arena was packed. Although the big stars didn't bother to watch the Clippers game, for ordinary fans, the ticket price was not expensive, and they could see Li Ze and Paul , This ticket is definitely not a loss.

In addition, tonight is the battle of Tianwangshan, and second-hand scalpers are sold out. No one likes to lose. The Clippers have won enough this season, and naturally they have attracted a lot of winning secrets.

In the locker room of the visiting team, coach Popovich looked relaxed. Although he had a showdown, he had full confidence to win the game.

There is no complicated reason, but he has more defensive cards than the Clippers.

Danny Green has a height of 1 meters, and he has no problem defending the Clippers' perimeter. The same is true for the defensive leader Leonard. Even if the two switch to Paul, they will not necessarily suffer.

If you can't guard Li Ze, then strangle another key player. This tactic is useless for the Thunder, but it is very useful for the current Clippers!

Before the game, there was not too much explanation of the tactics, and there was no chicken soup for the soul. The bad old man just said simply:
"Win this game, come back to San Antonio, we close the series!"

Tim Duncan greeted the Spurs and simply shouted a slogan:
"Wan, Spit, Broken, Tegad!"

Compared with the relaxed and happy Spurs, the Clippers coaching staff couldn't determine the opponent's starting lineup at all. In the end, coach De Nagro could only use the regular rotation, and Turiaf continued to appear.

After the on-site DJ introduced the Clippers, the atmosphere in the Staples Arena became more and more heated. In the commentary seat of ESPN, Jeff Van Gundy said in a somewhat exaggerated tone:
"Coach Popovich has made another bold move! Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili in the backcourt, Danny Green and Kawhi Leonard up front, Tim Duncan at center, obviously last game The victory of the game has brought great confidence to the Spurs!"

The commentator Mike Breen saw that the Clippers are still in a regular rotation, and he also said:
"I can understand Coach De Nagro, it's really not a good choice to suddenly change the starting lineup in such a critical game."

When the referee signaled the players from both sides to come to the center of the field, the DJ on the scene began to lead the audience to cheer for the home team:
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"

Players from both sides simply bumped their fists to salute. Li Ze looked serious, adjusted the red armguard on his left arm, and then put his hands on his knees, watching Jordan who was jumping the ball.

And Chris Paul next to him is winking to his teammates, signaling everyone to pay attention to receiving the ball.

With a burst of cheers erupting from the scene, Jordan successfully jumped to the ball for the Clippers.

After Matt Barnes received the ball, he passed it to Paul and quickly dribbled it across half court.

Li Ze soon discovered that Manu Ginobili was facing him in the first round, and the two could be regarded as old rivals.

Quickly came to the left flank outside the three-point line and received a pass from Paul. At this time, Turiaf did not want to hit Leonard in the low post at all, but directly pulled to the free throw line to serve Li Zela Open up the offensive space.

There was no need for a pick-and-roll, and there was a rhythmic sound of cheering on the scene. Li Ze quickly took a tentative step with his right foot, then quickly stepped forward to the left, crossed and dribbled through.

The Spurs didn't have too much defense. Li Ze almost passed Ginobili in one step. He stopped suddenly in the left block position, drifted to the left rear, and shot a jumper!

"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily!

There were cheers at the scene, but Li Ze didn't celebrate too much, and immediately reminded his teammates to retreat quickly.

The Spurs' offense with a smaller lineup also began to speed up. First, the pick-and-roll at the 5th position. As Parker got rid of Paul's defense and suddenly cut in, Turiaf was forced to help defend.

A simple break through and the ball was given to Leonard in the left corner. The latter caught the ball without making any adjustments, and quickly shot a jumper from outside the three-point line!
"Shua!" The three-pointer was hit steadily!

There was a burst of false noises in the Staples Arena. Paul clapped his hands annoyedly, indicating that the ball was his problem. Li Ze saw the Spurs hit a three-pointer in the first round, and thought helplessly in his heart:

"Looks like I'll have to fight my ass off tonight!"
