Mike Brown is still a little anxious.

Before the start of the game, they all dragged 2580,000 of them, full of confidence, which made Mike Brown feel that this game was won.

So he fully believes in the players, and he doesn't make too many arrangements, thinking that the experienced veterans will definitely be able to handle it.

As a result, the first quarter was played into this sub?

Especially Li Liang, he didn't score two three-pointers in the first quarter, and he didn't score a single point, what did he play?

But at the break, the Lakers players looked composed.

Li Liang, Nash, and Kobe Bryant gathered around and whispered again.

The three of them had often "conspired" to fight before, regardless of what Mike-Bad thought.

Now not only the three of them, but Howard and Gasol have joined in, making Mike Brown feel isolated.

But seeing their serious communication and exchange, Mike Brown knew that he could hang up with confidence!

Li Liang and the others were indeed discussing the situation in the first section.

In fact, they played normally in defense and offense, but they didn't take advantage of a few good opportunities.

For example, in the opening few frontcourt rebounds, Li Liang grasped them in the third game, but not in this game, because the Thunder paid attention to it and focused on defense.

Also, the Thunder's offense was actually very messy and didn't really tear through the Lakers' defense.

Under the command of Li Liang, the Lakers' man-to-man man-marking tactics have done a very good job, and they have magnified Perkins' weakness.

It's just that the Thunder players are in excellent form and have made some difficult shots, so the score will be pulled away.

The difference of 9 points is not very big, and everyone said that it can be recovered.

So after some exchanges, everyone thought there was no problem and continued to play according to the rhythm of the first quarter.

As for Brown...... Who cares about him?

In the second quarter, the second lineup of the two sides was on the court, Lakers Gasol, O'Neal Jr., Li Liang, Meeks and Ci Shiping.

The Thunder attacked first, Martin ran to catch the ball and missed a mid-range shot, but Collison got the rebound.

He made a basket and was hit by a big hat behind Li Liang!

Collison didn't shake Li Liang up with several feints in a row, and finally got a cap.

The Lakers didn't rush to counterattack, waited for Gasol to settle down, and hit Collison in the low post, causing Collison to foul and go to the free throw line.

The Lakers have played very clearly, and in four consecutive games, the second team Gasol has not solved this point well, so stick to this point.

Gasol hit both free throws, 28-21.

Then, both sides went on two rounds without scoring.

On the Thunder's side, after replacing Perkins and Ibaka, Brooks tried Thabit.

But in one of the Lakers' offenses, Li Liang received the ball in the bottom corner of the outside line, and Tabit switched defenses.

Li Liang shook Thabit with a three-point feint, and then crashed into it to make a foul and three free throws!

With both sides not scoring for half a day, Tabit's foul is a gift package from heaven.

Li Liang's free throws, that's stable, and since entering the playoffs, he hasn't missed any free throws.

Hit all three free throws, 28:24, chasing 4 points.

After that, Fisher broke through on offense and then assisted on the inside Collison with a high toss, and Collison hit a two-point shot with a small toss.

Thunder is doing everything he can, and basically all kinds of moves are used.

Every player in the Thunder can burst in, rush, pass when he gets the ball, and if he can't do it, he shoots it himself.

And the Lakers still played very methodically, insisting on playing tactics when they didn't feel good.

In the first few games, the Lakers were forced by the Thunder to play positional warfare tactics that could not be played.

And in the fourth quarter of the last game, the whole Lakers team suddenly opened up, probably because of the qualitative change caused by the quantitative change, and slowly found the feeling of positional warfare.

After a few free throws to relieve the scoring pressure, the Lakers played smoothly with the position, and finally Li Liang made a pass to the ground in a high position, and Ci Shiping took the ball and made a layup.

The Lakers are still behind the Thunder, and the scene is a little tepid, and the Stamp fans are a little anxious.

Why did he keep falling behind, and why didn't Bruce Lee make a string of three-pointers and immediately wipe out the difference?

Chinese fans who stayed up late in front of the TV to watch the game also felt anxious, waiting for Li Liang to rain for three points, and as a result, they slowly played their positions and made countermeasures.

In fact, the players and coaches of the Thunder are also very anxious, wondering when Li Liang will shoot a three-pointer?

Although two didn't score in the first quarter, the third and fourth games really cast the Thunder people out of the shadows, which is really terrible, brother.

And Li Liang is now using this deterrence to attract the Thunder defense in the high position, making balls for teammates, blocking and dismantling, and responding.

After all, Li Liang's tactical literacy was taught by a few famous coaches, and he couldn't play complicated battles, but the basic ones were very solid.

The Lakers' offense slowly changed from sluggish to smooth, with more coordination between the inside and outside, and more and more comfortable passing.

However, the Lakers only maintained a point difference of about 5 points with the Thunder, and did not tie or overtake the point difference.

In fact, Li Liang can knock a pill, throw in a three-pointer, and then use [Death Entanglement] to steal one, and throw another three-pointer, won't he win?

But the fourth game reminded Li Liang that using props would be risky.

The real low-risk is that the team is stronger than the opponent, and the Lakers can do it.

By the time Li Liang came down at the end of the second quarter, the two sides were tied at 41:38, the Lakers trailed by three points, and the Thunder called a timeout.

At the beginning, the Lakers dug a hole for themselves, and now they are unhurried, digging little by little to fill the hole.

Sometimes, pitfalls are inevitable, and not all games can be played with a dominant game and a tailwind.

How to play a disadvantaged game and a headwind game is a test that every strong team has to endure.

The Lakers are different from the Thunder, their offense is not violent, but like a boiled frog in warm water, the water temperature is increasing little by little.

After Nash and Kobe Bryant re-entered the court, they continued to maintain an unhurried rhythm and battle with the Thunder.

The Thunder wanted to speed up, but found that they couldn't lift it anymore.

The Thunder also want to disrupt the battle, and as the success rate of the Lakers' positional battle increases, it will not be chaotic.

They can only set up a position with the Lakers and slowly play their positions.

And that's not what they're good at, but they can't help it.

At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 53:50, and the Thunder still led the Lakers by 3 points.

The Lakers trailed by 9 points in the first quarter and scored only 19 points, but scored 31 points in the second quarter, which should be said to be quite good offensively.

At halftime, in the Lakers' locker room, the players' expressions were relaxed, but they were not slack.

The group began to discuss the offensive tactics of the second half, and Nash took the tactics board and began to explain, while everyone else listened.

Mike Brown was of course listening, and he was listening.

Nash said that the third quarter will still be tough, and we will use positional warfare to slowly regain the advantage.

"But don't think that you can take out your opponent in one go, this one will never be so easy, we have to be vigilant at all times, always be careful and don't make mistakes. If we make a mistake and get caught by our opponents, we're doomed. ”

Nash reminds everyone that it's good to be confident, but if you're conceited, the results can be miserable.

And so far, the team is still behind, not leading.

At halftime, the third quarter began.

The Thunder players looked slightly tired and they played very hard in the first half.

Chaotic battles are very physically draining, but the Thunder are young, and they have the capital to fight.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Thunder made a mistake, Sefrosha received the ball and did not catch it steadily, the ball was interfered with by Kobe Bryant, out of the sideline, and the Lakers had the ball.

In the third quarter, the Lakers' first offense, the ball was handed over to Li Liang after repeated turns.

Ibaka thought that Li Liang was going to make a three-point shot, so he pounced directly, but Li Liang actually dribbled and broke through?

Breaking through to the halfway point, he made a pull-up jump shot and hit the board at 45 degrees!

The difference between the two sides has narrowed to one point.

Durant holds the ball on the outside, and under the defense of Ci Shiping, he chooses to pass the ball to Westbrook on the bottom.

Westbrook rushed with the ball, and was caught by the Lakers' three-man attack on the inside!

But Westbrook forced the ball out anyway, causing a foul on Nash.

Both free throws were still 3 points.

The Lakers chose the safest way to attack, with Bryant asking for the ball in the low post on the left side.

One-on-one to Sefrosa, a back-to-back jumper after a back-to-back turn.

The Lakers' positional offense is getting better and better, and the players on the court know when and what style of play, and who will play.

Thunder Durant immediately returned the color, the big circle of the bottom line, shook off Ci Shiping's defense, received Westbrook's pass at 45 degrees on the right side, and hit a three-point shot!

At 58:54, the Thunder widened the difference, and this ball was very crucial.

Li Liang did not shoot the answer ball at this time, but passed the ball to the empty Kobe Bryant on the wing in the counterattack.

Bryant shook off Ibaka with a beautiful step to the basket and made a layup with a low hand on his left hand.

58:56。

Then, the Lakers defended the Thunder almost dead, Perkins got the ball but didn't dare to attack, and finally Westbrook took the ball and threw one on the outside and missed.

Li Liang got the rebound and made a long pass, Ci Shiping rushed straight to the basket, but the layup was fanned out by the big hat by Ibaka, who was following him!

The Lakers have never been able to equalize the score, and the hearts of Lakers fans are not going to go at the moment.

In the counterattack, the Thunder continued to pass the ball, Durant received the ball in the bottom corner of the right side, and hit the three-point shot again!

61:56！ Durant's three-pointer is pretty pretty scary.

However, Nash was very smart, and the Thunder players were still thinking about celebrating the ball, and Nash had already racked up to the frontcourt, and after stopping, he was followed by an acceleration man and a left-handed layup.

At 61:58, the Lakers kept the pressure on the Thunder.

Then, Perkins finally received the pass and hit a hook.

But Perkins immediately fouled Howard on the defensive end.

Howard hit both free throws, 63-60, and the two sides were deadlocked.

Li Liang has never made a random move, he has been responding, and at the same time has been standing in a very threatening position on the outside.

The Thunder are relying on the individual abilities of Durant and Westbrook to hold on, while the Lakers are gradually forming a group.

They've pinched for a season, and they've had four games in this series, and they're about to knead it well.

There was another scoring drought between the two sides, with the three-point margin remaining for two minutes, and Brooks called a timeout to ease the game.

After the timeout, Durant held the ball in a high position, and it became Li Liang who defended him.

After Durant's tentative step, he took a step forward and shot a jumper at the top of the arc, his shot point was too high, and with a slight back, Li Liang couldn't reach it at all.

Two-point hit.

The Lakers now know that it's about defending against Durant and Westbrook.

And the Thunder kind of don't know who to guard against, Kobe? Absolutely.

Li Liang? Too, Nash? It seems that it must be, Howard, and it must be.

As for Ci Shiping, he has been off the court after the timeout and replaced Gasol, who is now the strongest offensive lineup of the Lakers.

Positional battle, after double cover in the high position, Kobe Bryant entered the inside line and gave the ball to Li Liang in the bottom corner.

Li Liang didn't make a move, because he saw that the right side of Nash was empty.

Li Liang chose a long-distance horizontal pass, and the ball fell firmly into Nash's hands.

Nash's three-point shot from the right side, thrown!

It was Nash's first three-pointer of the game, 65:63, two points.

The pressure on the Thunder is getting bigger and bigger.

Westbrook didn't care, he took the ball and rushed hard, like a football runner, holding the ball to the basket, a European step changed direction, a right-handed layup, in!

The rest of the Thunder won't attack anymore.

At 67:63, Thunder felt dead support.

And the Lakers are crushing forward unhurriedly.

Li Liang went to the high post to block Nash, Nash returned the ball to Li Liang, Li Liang took a step inside with the ball, and then hit the ground and passed to Nash, who cut inside.

Nash cut to near the three-second zone, attracted the Thunder defense, and then passed back to Li Liang.

Li Liang hits a mid-range jumper!

Li Liang played as reasonably as Kobe Bryant today.

Durant was still holding on, first hitting a turnaround jumper after receiving the ball with his back, and then countering to split the ball for Westbrook to make a jumper.

And the Lakers relied on Kobe Bryant and Howard's frontcourt rebounds to continue to chase after them.

With the last two minutes left at the end of the third quarter, 73:70, the Thunder continued to lead by three points.

Mike Brown replaced Kobe Bryant off the court for the break, and Bryant had no opinion.

And Durant continues to stay on the court, so does Westbrook, and the Thunder simply can't do without them.

Without them, the Thunder's offense, the others would not work at all.

At this time, Durant slipped on offense, which was supposed to be a pull-up jump shot after a breakaway, and his feet slipped and fell to the ground.

The offensive time was running out, Durant threw Fisher on the outside, and Fisher missed the three-point shot!

The ball didn't even touch the basket and flew straight out of the baseline.

Staples cheered, the Thunder was obviously still ahead, but every player of the Thunder had a solemn face.

Durant got up from the ground, he was really tired.

And the Lakers, the senior team, looks like they still have a lot of energy left for the fourth quarter.

The defensive intensity on the court was still high, and Howard missed two attempts on a single attempt.

On the outside of the Thunder, Westbrook's breakthrough was rejected by Howard.

Time ticked by, and there were still 30 seconds left at the end of the third quarter.

The Thunder also had the ball, and Durant got the ball again.

He didn't even know how many times he had shot tonight.

In the face of Li Liang, Durant continued to have luck in the crotch, and then suddenly went to the left side and broke through the basket!

But the ball was broken by Li Liang's hand!

Li Liang didn't use his skills, he relied on his own ability to break the ball!

There was still a chance for one last attack in the third quarter, and this time Li Liang did not pass the ball.

He dribbled across the half court by himself, and Durant defended Li Liang, but he was tired and he didn't come forward to press.

The Thunder also didn't have a pinch, Nash was still on the court, and they were afraid of Li Liang's passing and vision.

Li Liang slowly passed the halfway and took a few steps inside, and his breakthrough was not good, so as soon as Durant saw him approaching, people had to stick up.

However, at this time, Nash stepped forward to answer, and Li Liang immediately passed the ball to Nash, and then made a cover for Nash.

Nash held the ball in the middle, Durant went to follow Nash, and Nash immediately passed back to Li Liang.

This is a routine that the Lakers used in the regular season I don't know how many times.

Li Liang received the ball, without any hesitation, and shot directly outside the three-point line!

The first three points of the third quarter, the ball is in!

73:73Tie!

Durant thought that Li Liang was going to go it alone, but when he posted it, he was fooled.

He stuck too close, so that Li Liang comfortably gave the ball to Nash and completed the blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation.

If you keep your distance, with the interference of his long arms, the coordination of the last attack will not be so smooth.

The Thunder's nine-point advantage built up from the first quarter was eaten away little by little and was deciated.

In fact, the Lakers' chasing speed is slow enough, three three-pointers.

However, although the start of the giant ship was slow, once it moved, it was unstoppable.

And the Thunder, who overdrafted Durant and Westbrook a lot in the first three quarters, have combined to score 50 points, and the others have scored a total of 23 points.

But Brooks had no choice but to rely on these two to do it.

Others are already struggling on the defensive end, so they can't ask for more on the offensive end.

In the fourth quarter, the Thunder still played.

However, at the start of the fourth quarter, something really frightened Brooks and the Thunder came along.

Li Liang responded with the ball on the outside, and Meeks and Ci Shiping successively surrounded the pillar of King Qin, took away the defense, and cut inside to attract attention.

Li Liangqiu was held on his head, looking like he was about to pass the ball, but he suddenly cast a cold arrow, and a three-point shot was in the heart of the basket!

He threw the ball out while none of the defenders were in his hands.

This three-point score, Brooks's careful liver is half cold, this is about to start again?

Westbrook and Durant are still on the court.

At this point, Westbrook couldn't rush anymore, and he chose to receive the ball in the low post and hit Meeks with his back.

But his roll-over forward jumper was slapped out by O'Neal Jr.

Meeks got the ball and rushed wildly, then went to the three-point line and obediently distributed the ball to the bottom corner.

It's Li Liang again.

Brooks closed his eyes instantly, he didn't want to see, he couldn't see, he couldn't enter, there would be no sound!

As a result, a second later, cheers rang in my ears!

It's over, and sure enough, it's in again......

Brooks had no choice, opened his eyes, and saw that Li Liang was making a three-point gesture.

He had to ask for a timeout, and the Thunder stayed up for three quarters, and finally couldn't stay up.

They relied on this strength to boil the Spurs to death, and the Spurs couldn't get past the 3-point line even if they died in Game 5.

And the Lakers didn't survive, Li Liang's three three-pointers made the Thunder falter.
