252. Western Conference Finals 7

Back on the bench, Leonard looked at Dio who was unhappy and some teammates who didn't seem to take the Lakers seriously, and sighed silently in his heart, Liu Ren will have a conflict with Kobe? Leonard believes, but he is even more convinced that even if there is a conflict between the personalities of these two people, it will not explode in the arena! It's not okay to be careless like this!

"Lalala, I'm a little connoisseur of selling newspapers. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Liu Ren hummed the newspaper selling song he learned when he was a child, and ended up satisfied.

"Speed up, run." Timeout on tactics D'Antoni only said this and then replaced Johnson with Marshall.

Back on the court, Marshall made a technical foul free throw.

Popovich gave Dio a break before bringing on Spurs' key summer signing, Marco Belinelli.

Belinelli is a member of the former Warriors' bombardment team, with a lot of offensive means and a little bit of everything, but his biggest feature is still catching and shooting, which is very much in line with D'Antoni's style of play.

D'Antoni tried to get him in the summer, but Belinelli opted for the Spurs, who were the most popular champions.

Buford signed him to face Ray Allen in the Finals, hoping to fight poison with poison.

Leonard played the entire first quarter, constantly blocking, running, and helping the team attract defense, like James was a father and a mother when he was younger.

No, seeing that Mills was about to block the pick-and-roll, Leonard immediately ran over.

Leonard helped Mills block Marshall, what neither Leonard nor Mills expected was that Marshall and Nick Young didn't care about Leonard, Marshall bypassed Leonard to chase Mills, and Nick Young blocked Mills in front of Mills first.

Seeing this, Mills immediately passed the ball to Leonard.

Nick Young saw Leonard receive the ball and immediately ran to the defensive position.

Leonard made a shooting feint and tried to hit Nick Young as he flew over, but he didn't expect Nick Young to stop two steps away from him.

Leonard is now one step from the three-point line, and Nick Young is probably positioned as far from the basket as the free-throw line.

Leonard hesitated, his shooting has always been his biggest technical shortcoming, although long-range shooting and three-point shooting percentage look good, that's because of the lack of shots, and he is not the top five scorers in the league in offensive efficiency in the 15-16 season that Liu Ren remembers.

Breakthrough? Leonard saw Liu Ren and Whiteside eyeing the inside, and he finally chose to shoot a jumper.

Miss!

Liu Ren grabbed a defensive rebound on Belinelli's head, passed it to Marshall, and then ran to the front court without looking back.

Marshall, as the ball handler, resolutely carried out D'Antoni's instructions, and the moment he received the ball, he advanced rapidly.

Except for Whiteside, who was jogging slowly in the back, the other four all ran.

Liu Ren took the lead to the opponent's basket, and the Spurs only had young Mills and Leonard in place, Marshall threw the ball to the rebound after half time, Mills' first reaction was to block Liu Ren, but there was a crisp dunk behind him.

Wesley Johnson! A muscular guy gets off the basket.

Liu Ren is just a decoy, and after Liu Ren completed that beautiful dunk just now, the Spurs' first reaction in this situation was to block Liu Ren's empty catch, and Marshall made perfect use of this.

It took only 3 seconds from Liu Ren grabbing the rebound to completing the fast break, and Whiteside had not yet run out of the three-point line, and the pace was terrifying.

The Lakers were completely different from the leisurely style of play in the first quarter, suddenly speeding up and catching the Spurs off guard.

The Spurs attacked, Belinelli pulled out a long-range shot and hit it, but the Lakers didn't react at all and immediately served and counterattacked.

The Spurs players who had just scored a goal immediately ran with the Lakers, but except for Mills and Leonard, who were young, strong and fast, no one else in the Spurs team could keep up with the pace of the Lakers' big four and small pairs.

The Lakers played 3 to 1 in the frontcourt, and Marshall received a pass from Liu Ren and made a layup.

After a few rounds of the timeout, the Lakers will play at a faster pace, and the Spurs will not be able to defend at all, not only that, but the Spurs' own offense will also be faster, which is not in line with Popovich's requirements, Popovich is a man who does not like his own players to make their own decisions.

With three minutes left in the second quarter, the Lakers had a 12-point lead at 64-52.

The Spurs called a timeout again, and Popovich saw that the lead was gone and that he was already behind by a large margin, so he did not get angry or anxious, but calmly replaced Dio and Duncan on the court.

The Lakers, for their part, responded immediately, replacing Gasol for Whiteside and Antetokounmpo for Wesley Johnson.

Gasol rested almost a quarter before he came on the field and violently dunked Dior.

Dio may have rested off the court for too long, and his hand was suddenly gone, and he threw three points directly out of bounds against Liu Ren's defense.

"You'd better go inside and play, you're shooting so badly." This time it was a dead ball serve in the backcourt, and it had to go through the referee's hand before serving, so there was no chance to break fast.

So Liu Ren followed Dior and slowly ran to the frontcourt, talking trash as he ran.

Although Liu Ren said this in his mouth, he really hoped that Dio would continue to shoot outside this time, because it seemed that Dio was not very good in terms of feel or mood this time, and he hoped that Dio would play inside because Dio was too accurate at that time, although he could bear Dio, he was very tired.

"It's my business how I love to fight, he X shut your mouth." Dio was fooled.

After halftime, Marshall handed the ball to Liu Ren, who was one step outside the free throw line, and the person who defended Liu Ren became Dio! And the interior defense of Gasol has become Leonard.

It turned out that Dio was beaten by Gasol and couldn't stand it, Gasol scored 12 points in a single quarter in the first quarter, 5 of 6 shots, and 2 of 4 free throws, all of which were forcibly cut on Dio's head.

"Oh, you're cowardly, but you know what, our strategy is that you defend against whoever we attack, and your defense, which is softer than toilet paper, is known to the whole world." Liu Ren said to Dior while dribbling.

Dio was furious as soon as he heard Liu Ren's words, he didn't continue to speak, and immediately stuck to Liu Ren to defend, he knew that his trash talk was not as good as this kid, in his opinion, Liu Ren's trash talk seemed to be learned from Kobe, Kobe Bryant's trash talk before the two consecutive championships Dior had tried it several times.

If Liu Ren knew Dior's thoughts, he would definitely jump up and say: "This is created by the uncle, can that stinky old man compare with the uncle?" ”

Dior is now attached to Liu Ren, his movements are very big, he looks like his sanity is about to disappear, and he doesn't care about fouls at all.

Liu Ren now has a lot of ways to score from Dior's head, he can run over Dior in various ways and get into the inside dunk, Liu Ren doesn't want to do that, he wants to beat him in the way that Dior does best.
