The best teammates in the NBA

Chapter 361 Doubt and strength (chapter with ten thousand words)

On April 4, in the three games that night, the teams in the upper half won all the games again and got match points one after another.

At 103:95, it was difficult for the Cavaliers to win. With an 8-point lead in the first half, they finally accepted the game.

Head coach David Blatt used an almost 7-man rotation method to smash the main players, and LeBron James played 42 minutes again.

在欧文11中3，拿到13分的情况下，勒布朗-詹姆斯挺身而出，26中13，31分11篮板4助攻4抢断2盖帽2失误，詹姆斯再次展现了自己实力。

The Bulls and the Bucks fought hard for two overtimes, and in the end 113:106, the Bulls had the last laugh.

德里克-罗斯在第2个加时站了出来，帮助公牛队连得6分，全场23中12，砍下34分5篮板8助攻3抢断3失误。

The healthy Rose has reminded many fans of the style of the year.

The game between the Clippers and the Pelicans lost suspense in three quarters. At 123:100, the Clippers beat their opponents again and easily won the match point.

Perhaps the Pelicans were too stretched, and they were slammed by Amelia's ball critics after the game.

"The intensity of the game is not even as good as the regular season!"

Coach Monty Williams knew his Pelicans coaching career was over after losing this game.

Of course, star players will not be blamed. In this case, changing the coach must be the management's first choice.

Of course, many fans of Anthony Davis also expressed disappointment, and many people even put a new label on the son of America:
"Playoff jerk!"

19 of 9, 24 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block and 3 turnovers. Anthony Davis has good statistics, but he is not aggressive enough on the court, and his frequent iron-blooded jumpers have long been enough for the fans
After the first round of G3, it is basically certain that the Clippers, Cavaliers, and Bulls will successfully advance.

Although the game was not exciting, for the team that got the match point, sweeping the opponent can get enough rest time. The fans' perception is not important, and physical fitness is the fundamental guarantee in the playoffs.

Losing G3, the adjustment time left for the Pelicans is only one day.

On the morning of the 24th, the demoralized Pelicans followed the coaching staff to briefly replay last night's game, but the more they watched, the more depressed they became.

Eric Gordon has been silent all the time. Last night, he scored 10 points in 2 of 8. Li Ze did not mark him all the way, but Gordon still stretched, and he completely lost the rhythm of the game.

The Pelicans' defensive system is largely based on Anthony Davis' ability to sweep and protect the frame. Asik inside is basically a meat shield. He scored no more than 5 points in three consecutive games.

But in the face of the Clippers' offense, Anthony Davis couldn't play a role.

Li Ze, who is playing at home, will also hit the basket. After coming to the away game, he will add three-pointers from the middle distance, run without the ball to find 1-on-1 opportunities, and switch offenses to easily score points.

Even with all his strength, Anthony Davis found that he couldn't touch Li Ze's figure.

The head coach Monty Williams saw that the players did not speak in the video class, and finally he could only clap his hands and encourage him:

"I won't say don't care about the bullshit about being behind 0:3, but think about the efforts we have made this year for the playoffs, and think about the fans who came to the field and kept cheering us on."

"Tomorrow night's game, we will fight for each other, for the New Orleans fans who support us, adjust our physical condition, and we will dedicate a wonderful game to the fans!"

Hearing the coach's chicken soup, everyone in the Pelicans finally got a little excited.
In contrast, everyone in the Clippers seemed very relaxed in training. As long as they win another game, the first round will officially end.

Jokic dared to fight hard in the garbage time last night, 6 of 4, scored 10 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and his efficiency was extremely high.

It seemed that the playoffs were too easy. After the recovery training in the morning, the fat man took the initiative to chat with Li Ze:
"If I won the championship in my rookie season, I always feel that I will not pursue it in the future."

Hearing the opponent's Versailles point of view, Li Ze looked weird, threw the ball in his hand, and then asked with a smile:
"What are you playing in the NBA for?"

After looking around and finding no one around, Jokic said embarrassingly:

"Of course it is to make money. In fact, I love horse racing more. Of course, I also like football very much."

Li Ze didn't expect the fat man to be so frank, but he still gave an understanding answer to Mengxin's doubts:
"Winning the championship in the NBA means being able to make money. In the Clippers, we will share the bonus for reaching the playoffs equally. If we win the championship, we will earn at least $200 million!"

"Doing well in the playoffs is good for you to sign a big contract."

"If you want to make money, hitting the championship is the best way. The finals have huge exposure, and you can play high-profile data. Next season, you will be the focus of people's attention."

"Advertisers will come to your door, and the beauty knife will be delivered to your arms automatically! Do you know how many endorsement contracts Chris has?"

Jokic shook his head immediately, and Li Ze smiled and said the answer:
"By relying on advertising endorsements, Chris can earn close to 1000 million dollars!"

"The brands endorsed include Panini, Tissot, Sanfu, AJ, State Farm Insurance, Disney, etc. Chris played Cliff Paul in the State Farm advertisement and created millions of dollars of brand value for the company."

Hearing this number, Jokic was completely dumbfounded. This is not a player contract. There is so much off-court income. Fatty Bai secretly converted it in his heart. With so much money, he can use the entire racecourse when he returns to Serbia!
"Entering the playoffs will give you extra income, and reaching the finals will give you huge exposure. Every finals will be watched by at least 1000 million people in North America. You don't think that everyone who plays in the NBA is pursuing honor. Bar?"

Hearing Li Ze ask back with a smile, Jokic also reacted. It turns out that everyone is working as a worker to make a lot of money. His own small thoughts may have been seen by others.
Li Ze patted Jokic on the shoulder, and said no more. Benefits are fundamental. In the Clippers, players can gain more.

Data, beauty, honor, the players' pursuit is gradual.

Jokic naturally also knows Li Ze's nationality. As one of the few international players in the Clippers, he is still a little curious:
"Kayce! What are you after? Everybody says you're rich!"

Regarding the question from the kid in front of him, Li Ze laughed:
"I need influence! No one will dislike having more dollars. 16 years is a node. The league may sign a new broadcast contract. If you want to make money, your current data is not enough."

Jokic thought of his racecourse, and suddenly felt that the data had to continue to be collected, and he couldn't stop gaining muscle and reducing fat.
In the tactical training session in the afternoon, everyone in the Clippers found that Jokic had become more active.

Stimulated by the dollar, Fatty Bai also had a higher pursuit. The contract for the second-round pick was too small. After taxation, he only got about $70.

Of course, this amount of money is actually enough for the Jokic family's expenses. Even if the expenses of his girlfriend Natalia are added, $70 is more than enough.

But just as Li Ze said, in the NBA, who would refuse to have more dollars?
"Why did you suddenly become so active? You would be lazy in the strength training class before, did you get any stimulation today?"

Taking advantage of the rotation to rest, Griffin looked confused when he saw Jokic's state.

In the Clippers, Tucker is always the most active in training, and Jokic is the one who likes to fish. Every time the strength training class, the white fat man will only complete the minimum requirements.
"Kids want to make a lot of money!"

Li Ze wiped off his sweat and responded simply. Griffin almost laughed out loud when he heard this. Second-round picks still want to make a lot of money?
"He should start first, and then think about making money!"

Hearing Griffin's ridicule, Li Ze just smiled slightly, there is still a dream!If it does come true
On the night of the 24th, the Warriors who came to Dallas made another victory.

126:107，凭借着斯蒂芬-库里42分5篮板9助攻1抢断5失误的表现，勇士队也成功拿到赛点。

The Raptors stretched again, 99:106, the Wizards returned to the home court seized the opportunity, the big score came to 3:0, the series has no suspense.

DeRozan scored 29 of 11 and scored 32 points. Lowry scored 22 of 5 and scored 15 points. Bright moments.
After the game, DeRozan and Lowry were also affectionately called "garbage brothers" by the fans of Tianchao.

At 116:108, the Rockets did not live up to the expectations of the fans, and simply won the match point!
The results of the first round have been roughly clear. Most of the teams in the upper half, except for the Raptors, have locked their places in the semifinals.

On the night of the 25th, at the Dipon Center Arena, the fans of the Pelicans were extremely disappointed.

At 67:44, the team fell behind by 23 points at halftime, and the battle of honor was completely over.

There is no difference from the previous three games. If the team wants to score steadily, it can only rely on the performance of Anthony Davis.

Eric Gordon recovered, scored 12 of 5 and scored 13 points, but other teammates misfired.

In the locker room of the home team, Anthony Davis sat silently in his seat, unable to move
Playing in the playoffs for the first time, he was swept by a big score in all 1 games, and was ridiculed wildly by the fans after the game.

Anthony Davis understands LeBron James' "Decision" at this time. If he can easily defeat his opponent and be a hero alone, who will hug his thigh?
"Don't let the fans see you depressed. Many of you are playing in the playoffs for the first time. There is no shame in losing to the defending champion."

"Put your best performance in the second half, the fans are watching us, don't let them down!"

Head coach Monty Williams simply sent out the chicken soup, but he was extremely bitter in his heart. He was about to dismiss get out of class, and he was about to leave the team he had coached for 5 years.
With 1 minute and 02 seconds left in the third quarter, Li Ze took a rest and did not appear again.

In the commentary booth of TNT, Kevin Harlan was a little depressed. When it was their turn to comment, the game ended at halftime. Reggie Miller was in a good mood, and he took the initiative to say:
"Replacing Kayce is the right choice. The Clippers cannot fail this year. Health is the most important thing."

"Played 30 minutes, 15 of 11, 4 of 3 from outside the three-point line, 30 of 5 free throws, 6 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assists, 40 steals and 30 turnover. In the first round, he played [-]+ in two games and [-]+ in two games. picky."

The commentator Kevin Harlan also chatted about off-topic topics:
"Will Kayce be elected this year's MVP? Stephen Curry also played a phenomenal performance!"

Reggie Miller heard his partner talking about the hot topic recently, and immediately replied:

"If I were the media that voted, I would vote for Kayce without hesitation!"

"Won the scoring champion for 5 consecutive years, scored 4 club data for 180 consecutive years, an outside player, shot 6% of the field goals, led the league in many statistics, and the Clippers even scored 73 wins! "

"Of course, from the perspective of the lineup, the Clippers have three All-Star players, but the super team has achieved such results, and I think Kayce deserves the MVP."

During the break during the festival, the fans of the Pelicans on the scene saw that the score had become 95:68, and they were particularly disappointed. In 4 games, all of them lost by a big score, and the strength gap was desperate.

Anthony Davis sat in his seat, felt the lost emotions of the fans, and felt a little guilty in his heart.

16中10，25分8篮板1盖帽1失误，尽管觉得自己尽力了，但心里也明白目前的打法确实缺乏侵略性。

Thinking of the big words he uttered in the interview before the G1 game, Anthony Davis shut himself up.

The game in the fourth quarter was basically reduced to garbage time. The atmosphere team of the Pelicans was not in a high mood after they came on the field.

In the end, 124:97, the Clippers beat the Pelicans, swept their opponents 4:0 in the first round, and easily reached the Western Conference semifinals!

At the end of the game, there was a burst of boos at the Dipon Center Arena, and then Pelicans fans applauded the home team players.

Chris Paul smiled and hugged the Pelicans players, then exchanged long pleasantries with head coach Monty Williams.

These two can be regarded as old acquaintances, but the next time they meet, Monty Williams will have to lose his job. If he wants to get the position of head coach again, he is destined to continue polishing in the league for a few years.

The Pelicans fans at the scene did not leave early, and Anthony Davis also hugged Li Ze:
"I'll probably always remember this year's playoffs, Kayce, it's an honor to play against you, but seriously, it sucks to lose."

This year can be regarded as a very memorable year for Anthony Davis. He rushed to No.5 on the MVP candidate list, was selected as an All-Star, and entered the playoffs.

Hearing this Mengxin's emotion, Li Ze just responded with a smile:
"You're only 22 years old! The future belongs to young people! Keep going! Bro!"

"."

Li Ze's words sounded harmless, but Anthony Davis realized something was wrong when he walked into the player tunnel:

"Shet! Only three years older than me! The future belongs to young people?!"

Holiday and Lauren married in a low-key manner last year. Although Lauren's family did not like the black player, the two still walked together.

It's just that the wedding ceremony was a bit crude, and the two sides accommodated each other without inviting outsiders.
Li Ze noticed that Lauren was waving at them in the front row of the audience, and immediately smiled and said to his good brother beside him:
"If you want to get a big contract, you have to play some good data, don't be surprised by people's opinions."

When mentioning the data, Holiday is also a little worried. Since his low-key marriage last year, his family and work are not going well:

"I understand! I don't know what kind of coach the team will change next. I like this city very much, but Lauren's parents still have some prejudices about our lives."

Li Ze can only pat his good brother on the shoulder. Unlike the memory in his mind, the current class conflicts in Amelica are getting worse, and the way to divert the problem is to intensify the racial conflicts.

Rich people don't care what skin color you are, as long as there is profit to be made, even aliens can do business together.

After the poor at the bottom were brainwashed, they shifted the reason for their poverty to racial issues, and the upper and lower classes were completely separated. In this case, Lauren married Holiday. It can only be said that the two are indeed true love
The Clippers were promoted, and after the game, various sports media blew up again, helping Li Ze to win the championship again.

Although the media hoped that the Clippers would suddenly pull the span and then fail with 73 wins, on the surface everyone kept complimenting them.

Competitive sports, after all, rely on victory to speak!
In the game that night, except for the Clippers who successfully advanced, the other three upper half teams all capsized unexpectedly.

At 83:91, the Nets returned to the home court and finally defeated the Eagles.

Head coach Rivers directly came to a 7-man rotation, and the main lineup played 42 minutes. In the case of the main force, it was difficult to win in the end.

After the game, the Chinese fans once again scolded Rivers for being inappropriate. The two insiders, Ah Lian and Plumlee, only got 4 minutes of playing time in the end, and both scored zero.

In the game between the Bulls and the Bucks, Derrick Rose made a mistake at the last moment, and Jerry Bayless hit the mid-range 1 second before the end to complete the lore!

At 90:92, the Bucks pulled back tenaciously and fell behind by a big score of 1:3.

吉米-巴特勒成为公牛队表现最出色的球员，17中12，三分线外7中5，罚球4中4，33分7篮板2助攻3抢断1盖帽4失误。

The player at the end of the first round once again showed his strength, and many football commentators have noticed Jimmy Butler's excellent performance.

The game between the Grizzlies and the Spurs also exceeded the expectations of the critics.

At 109:115, the Grizzlies made another victory, and the series came to 2:2.

After losing this game, Popovich looked very depressed, and it was tied 2:2. Although the battle of Tianwangshan will return to San Antonio, the physical consumption is real.

The consumption in the first round was too high. Even if they reached the Western Conference semifinals, facing the Clippers who were waiting for work, the old man felt that the team would be cold.
On the morning of the 26th, everyone in the Clippers had already flown back to Los Angeles. Since the game between the Spurs and the Grizzlies was still going on, the Clippers got ample rest time.

On May 5, the Western Conference semifinals officially started. With nearly a week of adjustment space, the Clippers coaching staff also announced a day off.

America's sports media began to talk clichés again, predicting who the Eastern Conference team would reach the finals.

Just when everyone was unanimously optimistic that the Cavaliers would rush out of the East, in the game on the night of the 26th, Olynyk pulled under the basket and directly dislocated Love's left shoulder.

Just 7 minutes into the game, Love was injured and left the game. The Cavaliers finally defeated their opponents 101:93, swept the Celtics 4:0 and advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals, but everyone thought the Cavaliers were over after the game.

LeBron James played 46 minutes in this game, Kyrie Irving played 43 minutes, and David Blatt's employment reminded various sports reporters of Li Zetian who played 48 minutes.
Obviously at the most critical moment, everyone is a tactic, which also makes many ball commentators unable to complain, it is really the main force!

In the press conference after the game, LeBron James was not in a good mood, and the team doctor has confirmed that Love will miss the rest of the playoffs.

"LeBron, it's a pity that you suffered serious injuries in the first round. Do you think the Cavaliers have a chance to reach the finals this season?"

Faced with such a question, LeBron James did not answer confidently, but said cautiously:
"The playoffs will be played game by game. I will not promise anything, but I will go all out for every game!"

"."

This is what the media were waiting for, and in the end Yahoo Sports did another big job:

""No Confidence! How should James choose next season?""

This article came directly out of nothing, thinking that the Cavaliers will fail in the Eastern Conference semifinals, and James' 1+1 contract will run away during the offseason
On Reddit, Cavaliers fans scolded Yahoo Sports, and many fans firmly believed that LeBron James, who returned home, would end the Cavaliers:

"This is an absolute curse, Cleveland sports are cursed!"

"Come on, Bro! Even if the Cavaliers can make it to the Finals, they will most likely face the Clippers, and James has no chance."

"Yeah! James has lost to Kayce 4 times in a row, he needs stronger teammates!"

"This report seems to make sense. The 1+1 contract happens to be a player option during the offseason. Although I am willing to believe in LeBron James, such a flexible contract is indeed more conducive to job-hopping."

"Where else can LeBron James go? To the Clippers? Maybe Kayce will bring him a championship."

"Why not go to the Warriors? I think LeBron James must have regretted it. If he chooses to join the Warriors during the offseason, maybe he can win the championship this year."

"I love the Warriors! I hope the league will award the MVP award to Curry. Kayce has been playing in a super team. Curry deserves more respect."

"Seriously? Man! Look at Kayce's shots and field goal percentage this season. The two players are not on the same level. In the playoffs, Curry will be punished badly on the defensive end!"

"The MVP must belong to Kayce. The gap between the gaps and the blessing of 73 wins. Curry is very good, but many players like to single him on the offensive end, but no one wants to face Kayce."

"Curry's [-]-point shot is better! I like the Warriors' offense."

"It's not difficult to look at the technical statistics. Kayce is far ahead in three-point shooting percentage and production volume. All the three-point shooting records are also created by Kayce. Curry? He is just an excellent No. 1 position."

It was originally a post discussing LeBron James, but it ended up being a battle between Curry fans and Li Ze fans. As James' popularity in the league declined, Curry seemed to have the intention to replace him. Fans don't like losers.
That night, two more teams from the West successfully advanced to the

At 121:109, the Warriors easily defeated the Mavericks, swept their opponents 4:0, and entered the Western Conference semifinals.

At 114:105, the Rockets also completed their revenge and defeated the Trail Blazers. They also swept their opponents 4:0. In the Western Conference semifinals, they will encounter the Warriors.

The fans of the two teams are all overjoyed. On the other side of the ocean, the fans of the Rockets are even more confident that the team will reach the Western Conference Finals, and the Warriors are nothing to worry about!
Howard's condition is getting better and better, the bearded player also played a good performance, and the various football critics of America also expressed their opinions.

However, most people still think that the Warriors will have the last laugh. After all, the record of 67 wins in the regular season can already explain a lot of problems.

At the end of April, everyone in the Clippers began low-key training. Apart from accepting daily interviews with the local broadcaster Fox Sports, everyone completed the training requirements of the coaching staff step by step.

Fox Sports previously lost the rights to broadcast the Lakers, but since signing the Clippers broadcast contract, subscribers have continued to rise every year.

Steve Ballmer asked the two parties to re-sign the broadcast agreement in 16, and Fox Sports has no opinion on this.

On May 5, with the end of the only 2-game tiebreaker in the first round, the semi-finals will officially begin.

102:109, the Spurs struggled to defeat the Grizzlies at home and successfully advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

It's just that coach Popovich was not happy after winning this game. The team could hardly rest and had to fly to Los Angeles the next day.

This is a test for the physical fitness of the old guys, and the series with the Grizzlies really exhausted the players.
In this case, Popovich, a bad old man, even complained directly after the game:
"The league should consider a more reasonable schedule. We only have more than one day to rest, and the players can't even play video lessons."

However, some sports media obviously still remember what happened to the Clippers in the 12-13 season. The Spurs were just waiting for work, but the Clippers tenaciously protected the home court.

Therefore, the media didn't take Popovich's complaints seriously, and some people even whispered:
"The Spurs can't take all the cheapness"

The results of the MVP selection will be announced soon, perhaps because Li Ze has been too strong these years, and doubts have appeared in the media.

TNT's NBA Tip-Off program, after entering the playoffs, is mainly about pre-match predictions and discussions about the ownership of awards.

The host and guests are still the old four, but this show has less humor and more arguments, which can be regarded as the pre-match quarrel session.
The host Ernie Johnson looked at the three people who were arguing in front of him and smiled. Only by fighting can the ratings be increased.

"Listen, guys! Kayce is strong, he's very good, but by his own admission, he's been playing on super teams."

"We all know that when you have two All-Star teammates, the game is easier, so, I will vote for Stephen Curry, 67 wins, definitely an amazing record."

Charles Barkley faces the camera, his eyes wide open, and he raises his volume by the way.

Kenny Smith, as a firm Li Zechuan, shook his head with a smile, and retorted without hesitation:

"A super team does not necessarily mean success, 73 wins, scoring champion + DPOY, 180 club data, replacing Kayce with other star players, it is impossible to achieve such results. This is a crushing of strength. MVP has no Any suspense."

"But a superteam is a superteam, and your assumptions don't make sense. Steph Curry deserves credit."

The host Ernie Johnson heard Charles Barkley refute again, and immediately smiled and asked O'Neill, who was not talking much:
"Shaq, I think you must have something to say about the understanding of super teams!"

O'Neill just smiled and said easily:

"Superteams are all excuses. In fact, Kayce won 4 championships and 4 Finals MVPs."

"I don't care what super teams say. The championship is the most important thing. In contrast, the Heat's performance is the most disappointing."

When Charles Barkley heard this point of view, he immediately asked:

"OK! Then who will you vote for?"

"I will vote for Stephen Curry, not because he performed better, but because the league needs a new MVP against Kayce, I don't like the scene of a dominant player."

"Come on! What the hell reason is that!"

Kenny Smith smiled and shook his head again, and the studio staff also booed. This answer is so lame and not objective at all.
Compared with the annual semi-final G1 awards, this year the league has kept the MVP suspense for a while longer, and fans are also constantly discussing on social media that super teams are indeed a minus item.

On the evening of the 3rd, the semi-finals officially started. There were two games that night:

Wizards vs. Hawks, Spurs vs. Clippers.

The Raptors were defeated by the following gram and swept out 4:0, while the fans paid more attention to the game between the Spurs and the Clippers. The two sides can be called old rivals
Naturally, the disturbing voices from the outside world will not bother Li Ze. In the NBA, victory is the most important thing. As long as you can keep winning, everyone will sing praises for you.

Before the game, during the free media interview time, in the Clippers locker room, three floors inside and three outside, a large group of sports media surrounded Li Ze.

Although everyone in the Clippers has been used to this scene, Griffin secretly chose Lemon. Since Li Ze came to the team, he has received significantly less attention.

ESPN reporters squeezed to the front early, and immediately asked questions after occupying favorable terrain:

"Kayce, can you talk about your views on this season's MVP? You have been ranked first in the MVP candidate list this season. Do you think you can win this award again?"

Li Ze, who had already changed his team uniform, patiently answered the questions:

"It's like I don't care about the stats! I don't care about the MVP award! I just give my best every night to play perfectly."

"Whether it's statistics or honors, they are actually subsidiary products brought about by victory. You know, the only thing I pursue is victory!"

"."

The surrounding media are a little speechless, they don’t care about the statistics, and they won the scoring champion for 5 consecutive years, they don’t care about the honor, there are too many trophies to fit in a cabinet
What made everyone unable to refute the most was that this X was pretending to be flawless. Li Ze did reduce the number of shots this season and actually gave up the ball.

The reporter of Yahoo Sports immediately took the opportunity to change the topic, and everyone was not interested in watching Li Ze continue to pretend to be X:
"Kayce, what are your expectations for tonight's game? We all know that every time we play against the Spurs, the Clippers struggle a bit. How do you think the team will perform tonight?"

Li Ze smiled at the surrounding media, and then replied with a relaxed expression:

"We will beat the Spurs tonight! The young team is more physically fit, and the Clippers will not waste their chance!"

"."

Tickets for the Western Conference semifinals were sold out early, and most of the Clippers fans chose to enter the stadium early. After the game started, the atmosphere in the Staples Arena was even more explosive.

Tonight's game is broadcast by TNT, and the commentary lineup has also been adjusted. Groom Albert, Reggie Miller, and Chris Webber will jointly explain the game.

"I don't like the offensive options of the Spurs. They should give the ball to the inside more. Danny Green has no touch outside the three-point line tonight."

Chris Webber saw Danny Green hit another iron and immediately pointed out the Spurs' tactical problems.

Reggie Miller noticed that the long rebound was accepted by Li Ze, and immediately said loudly:
"The Clippers are going to launch a transition attack again! They are in a hot state tonight!"

The Clippers fans at the scene saw Li Ze holding the ball in his left hand and accelerating. Along the left sideline, Cond Leonard passed the half court and cheered loudly again.

In the first round of the game, Leonard was in good form. The change of role this season has made this taciturn striker begin to transform into a core player.

在和灰熊队的系列赛中，场均20.3分7.4篮板2.6助攻1.1抢断2.1失误，投篮命中率为47.7%，三分球命中率为42.3%。

Popovich increased Nader's ball-holding attack ratio, and the Spurs' victory over the Grizzlies is naturally inseparable from Leonard's outstanding performance.

"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"

The Clippers fans saw that the two had crossed the three-point line, and immediately followed the DJ on the scene to cheer.

Leonard's defensive center of gravity is extremely low, and at the same time, he does not guarantee that he will not lose his position. He will not attack the ball at all, and only uses his body to constantly oppress Li Ze.

Switching offense, Li Ze, who held the ball in his left hand, crushed Leonard to the left block position. Noticing that everyone on the Spurs had completed the defensive position, he immediately turned his back to protect the ball, and at the same time exerted force with his feet, hitting continuously.

Leonard was once again crushed by Li Ze to the low post on the left. This position immediately made the Spurs' defense a little uncomfortable.

Duncan needs to always pay attention to Griffin near the free throw line, and Splitter dare not let go of Jordan at the bottom right of the basket.

Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, suddenly used his right foot as the axis, and quickly pulled the ball back. Seeing that Leonard was not shaken, Li Zeshun turned back, grabbed the ball with his right hand, and moved to the blocking area again.

Leonard reacted very quickly, and at the moment Li Ze changed hands and dribbled the ball, he immediately stepped forward to press down.

At the moment when the opponent cut the ball with his left hand, Li Ze, who had completed his turn, suddenly dribbled back with a large cross step, and the ball rubbed Leonard's fingertips back to his left hand.

The large shaking instantly gave Li Ze a body space, without any hesitation, he quickly made a jump shot!
"Kayce! Pulls up and fires! YES!"

After the shaking, the wonderful goal made the commentator Mav Albert also shouted.

The cheers of the fans made Popovich on the sidelines in a bad mood. The Clippers have played this half-converted opportunity three times.
Head coach De Nagro sat on the bench and smiled. He has made it clear that he wants to speed up the pace of the game and kill the old man of the Spurs!
6:15，第1节比赛还剩7分31秒，分差来到9分，马刺队被迫请求了暂停。

For more than four minutes of the game, Leonard was invisible. Regarding Barnes, Danny Lin didn't seize the opportunity, and a 3-for-0 came from outside the three-point line.
"Patience! Be patient, everyone, Tim, we need an inside offense!"

Hearing Popovich's words, Duncan just nodded and said no more. His physical condition is not good, and he has not recovered from the last round of the game at all.

After hesitating for a moment, Popovich finally chose to continue to trust Danny Green. He hoped that the team would find a touch on the perimeter.

Back from the timeout, everyone on the Spurs still looked very stable.

This attack first used Parker's breakthrough to pull the defense. After breaking through and passing the ball, he quickly transferred the ball from the outside, and finally gave Duncan a cross screen to ask for the ball in the low post on the right.

Facing Griffin's defense, he put the ball with his left hand, approached the basket after hitting, then turned around, carried the defense, and succeeded in throwing with his right hand!
At 8:15, Duncan's score helped the Spurs stabilize their footsteps. Griffin patted the ball angrily. This old man is still alive!
After finishing the goal, Duncan clapped his hands immediately while returning to defense, reminding his teammates to defend for a few rounds.

Quickly sent the baseline ball, Paul, who was in good shape in this game, immediately made an offensive gesture, and amidst the cheers of the Clippers fans, he managed to pass halftime steadily.

Tony Parker always paid attention to the movement behind him, and found that the Clippers didn't seem to have the intention of playing a pick-and-roll, subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

In the left block position, Li Ze is competing with Leonard, constantly half-circling forward to defend, Leonard does not give Li Ze a chance to catch the ball easily.

When Leonard's half-circle defense was successful, Li Ze suddenly turned around deftly, then immediately accelerated, from left to right, slid the bottom line and ran back quickly.

Leonard pursued frantically, and when he passed the block on the right, Jordan Jr. suddenly took a small step horizontally, which directly delayed Leonard's pursuit.

Li Ze is extremely fast, easily bounced to the right flank outside the three-point line, received a pass from Paul, took the ball from outside the three-point line and threw it!
"Kayce, with the dagger! (Fatal three points!)"

"He is in the Zone!"

At 8:18, the point difference reached double digits. The commentator Mafu Albert saw Li Ze scoring consecutive points and immediately praised him.

Li Ze threw a three-pointer, and Popovich on the sidelines was so angry that he roared loudly:
"Move the pick-and-roll! Look at how many steps he moved, my player was blocked laterally!"

"Damn home! You can watch the video!"

The line referee was still explaining, but the referee blew a T directly. The old man made a technical foul, and the Clippers had to add a free throw.

Li Zele has blossomed, and the scale of mobile pick-and-rolls has also been relaxed. This change in rules was discovered by Tyronn Lue in the first round of the replay of the Warriors.

Easy to walk to the free throw line, Li Zejia made a steady free throw, scored 4 points in one round, blood earned!
In the next few rounds, the Clippers followed suit. Griffin and Jordan Jr. took turns in the left and right blocks to help Li Ze and Barnes cover.

With the continuous firing from the outside, the point difference was quickly widened. With 1 minutes and 2 seconds left in the first quarter, Paul and Griffin took the lead off the court, and Crawford and Jokic played in rotation.

The Spurs also made adjustments, Ginobili replaced Danny Green, who was bang bang, and Aaron Baynes replaced Splitter.

After his debut, Ginobili forced Crawford this round, causing Jokic's thug foul.

Fatty Bai suffered a dark loss just after he appeared on the stage, and he felt a little depressed.

Ginobili looked serious, but he missed two free throws. Amid the cheers of the Clippers fans, Jordan easily protected the backcourt rebound.

After Li Ze received the ball, he quickly dribbled across half court, and then immediately at the top of the arc, he and Jokic performed a high pick-and-roll.

The big body still played a role in the end. Leonard couldn't squeeze through the screen at the first time, and Duncan seemed to be lacking in physical fitness, so he couldn't step forward to delay.

With a small step away from the arc top three-point line, Li Ze, who got rid of the defense, quickly shot a jumper!
"Shua!" The three-pointer hit the net hollowly!

At 14:28, the point difference was widened to 14 points.

Seeing the Clippers raining three-pointers, Popovich on the sidelines was anxious and paced back and forth, only to see Manu Ginobili hit the iron from outside the three-point line after halftime, and immediately returned to the bench in anger superior
The Spurs then strengthened their defense against the three-pointer. After a big delay, Li Ze easily assisted Jokic to go down.

Blooming inside and out, everyone in the Spurs was completely numb.
By the end of the first quarter, Clippers fans were cheering loudly in Staples Arena.

At 18:34, the Clippers easily led by 16 points.

"This is the playoffs. The Clippers have accelerated the pace of the game. The Spurs have physical problems. There is no objective reason. Judging from the current performance, the Clippers are the better team!"

Chris Webber explained that the Clippers didn’t have many chances to play, and they were looking forward to it before the game, but tonight’s game seemed to take another
"Kayce once again showed a wealth of offensive skills!"

"6 of 4, 4 of 3 from beyond the three-point line, the efficiency is extremely high! The Spurs must adjust their defense."

Reggie Miller was blowing wildly again. He hoped that Li Ze would win the MVP again, and he entered the Li Ze blowing mode after the opening
On the Clippers' bench, Li Ze took the towel handed over by Bullock with a relaxed expression, and noticed that the media reporters on the sidelines were whispering again, and smiled in his heart:
"Honor and victory, of course you want everything!"
