Kobe's attack hit a weak spot on the Rockets' defense.

McHale wanted to use Beverly to protect Harden, allowing him to reduce consumption on the defensive end and reduce fouls.

When Harden was in the Thunder, he was always playing as the sixth man.

Each game is played for about 30 minutes, and Durant and Westbrook have two ball holding points in front, so Harden can do a lot.

After the Rockets became the absolute core, his energy was mainly on offense.

Physical strength is not Harden's strength. The boy is fat and tired.

If you spend too much on the defensive end, the Rockets' offense can no longer be seen.

So McHale let Beverly go, is to let Beverly go to carry the firepower of the Lakers.

Anyone who knows Kobe's thief's thief's essence is to fight Harden.

Nash came over to pick and roll, Harden couldn't help but follow, the layup was empty and he couldn't watch.

The result, of course, was being educated by Kobe.

McHale looked anxiously on the sidelines, limping around on the sidelines, shouting "protect" towards the field.

This protection requires both protection of the middle road and Harden.

But this is the playoffs. Seizing the opponent's weaknesses will definitely hit you to death.

Nash and Kobe are both old rivers and lakes. The most valuable point of the Rockets is Harden. Who do you fight against?

On the Rockets side, Garcia hit a 3-pointer from the perimeter, and the veteran is still reliable.

Turning back, the Lakers saw Jean Harden defending against Nash, and Bryant delivered the ball to Nash singles.

Pulling open in four directions, Nash used the dribble and footsteps to change direction continuously, and after reaching the inside, a low-hand shot from the right hand hit.

Lateral movement is not Harden's strength, making him really difficult to prevent Nash.

Okay, not against Nash, who are you going to defend against? Fang Shiping?

The first section is not unprevented, can't help it.

And what if Ci Shiping had another elbow?

Or to defend against Howard?

If Harden is a little fatter, he might really consider it.

In the end, the Rockets communicated with each other and felt that it was most appropriate for Harden to prevent Li Liang.

In the second quarter, the main role of Li Liang's offensive end is to squat the bottom corner.

Squatting at the bottom corner, this Harden is good at, and can also cross his waist for a while.

When Li Liang looked at it, Nima looked down on me and asked Harden to guard me?

McHale, don’t you know that Lao Tzu is the true core of the Lakers?

But it's no problem to think about it, core to core, this alignment is fine.

The two sides entered a period of stalemate, the Lakers stabilized the point difference at 12 points.

The Rockets are desperately trying to protect Harden. On the other hand, Harden is also trying to create a better chance for the Rockets to score.

After Delfino and Garcia came up, the Rockets offensive really did survive a lot.

Delfino has more experience and is not frizzy when playing. Li Liang can no longer run around casually, he must keep an eye on it.

At the end of the second quarter, the two sides played 56:43, the Lakers lead the Rockets 13 points to end the first half.

Throughout the first half, Parsons and Jeremy Lin scored a total of 4 points.

Harden scored 15 points, including six free throws, to support the Rockets offense.

Li Liang didn't play much offensively in the second quarter. He looked at Kobe and Nash. The old two turned.

The two have really rich experience in the game, and the offensive rhythm is very good. The Rockets are crushed.

There is little chance of a quick counterattack, and Kobe also fouled Harden three times.

This is bad news for the Rockets. If Harden gets into foul trouble in the second half, the Rockets will surrender.

In addition to starting to shine in the first quarter, Li Liang is well-behaved in the back, conscientiously doing his basic work well.

He has already scored 7 rebounds in the half, giving the impression that he is a reliable blue collar.

In fact, Li Liang is simply playing, he thinks that playing a rocket is not as good as the Red Chicken from the Pistons.

Although Harden is excellent, he plays a chicken thief, not as fierce as McGrady.

A contest with McGrady made Li Liang feel what a knight duel was.

Besides, there is Kobe in the team, it is not Li Liang's turn to deal with Harden.

Feeling a little boring, Li Liang thought about it, or a wave of three-pointers in the third quarter.

Don't the Rockets like to play fast, do they like the three-point match, then it will soar.

He silently called out the [three-point shooting percentage improvement sticker (b)] from the system, which can increase the three-point shooting percentage by 5% within 15 minutes.

The five percent effect is average, but lasts long.

And it can be increased by 5 percentage points. If the amount is large, the effect will be obvious.

The halftime break passed quickly, and Mike Brown didn't make much arrangements, just asked the team to maintain the state of the first half.

Before coming to the court, Li Liang said to Mike Brown: "Mike, please don't shout about a pause later."

Li Liang was afraid that his props would be suspended and consumed too much.

Mike Brown scratched his bald head. I'm all right to call a timeout. "Okay, I won't."

After I finished speaking, I didn’t feel right. I’m a coach. Do you want to give me guidance if you want to stop?

Forget it, forgive him.

At the beginning of the second half, the Rockets took the lead in attacking.

After the midfield adjustment, the Rockets' starting has not changed.

However, McHale had already determined that once the situation changed, he immediately replaced Smith and went to Beverly or Delfino.

This mainly depends on whether Li Liang's three points will be opened.

In the first half, Li Liang made a three-pointer and hadn't scored yet.

But McHale knew that the 28-point three-pointer was a terrible weapon for the Lakers.

In the regular season, I don't know how many teams died due to his bald three-point rain.

The Rockets played more patiently in the opening half of the second half. Jeremy Lin delivered the ball to Smith in the bull's corner. After Smith took the ball, Harden on the wing came and handed the ball to catch the ball and used the cover to take the middle.

Li Liang and Howard closed the door directly. Harden didn't play hard and returned the ball to Jeremy Lin.

Li Liang thought that if the ball was to be replaced with McGrady, he would definitely pull it up and cast it.

Jeremy Lin's left hand broke through from the middle again, but there was still no chance.

Li Liang defended the center very deadly and could only return the ball to Parsons from the perimeter.

In the end Parsons still gave the ball to Harden, Harden took the ball with a peristaltic breakthrough in his left hand.

Although the speed is slow, but he is playing time difference, if the opponent is fast, he will pass in one step.

But the defender is Howard. Harden wants to throw a shot and give him a big hat.

The Lakers counterattacked, Li Liang quickly came down, Nash quickly passed halftime.

Li Liang has rushed to the bottom corner of the left side. This is the way the Sun V attacked before.

Nash immediately passed the ball into Li Liang's hands, Parsons' defense has come up.

Li Liang did not reluctantly shoot, but passed it to Kobe.

Kobe caught the ball with a swaying shoulder, and suddenly accelerated to break from 45 degrees, attracting the two to defend.

Li Liang has ran out of the 45-degree three-point line, Kobe turned to pass the ball, Li Liang received the ball and cast!

[Enable three-point hit rate improvement stickers (b)]!

Raising posts is just a kind of insurance, as well as psychological comfort.

Nobody is defending in front of Li Liang, and his three-pointer hits firmly!

Smith's defense is not in place, but he can't blame him.

Can Kobe break through and can't he chase?

However, the Rockets counterattacked quickly, and after being scored three points, they quickly served in the backcourt.

Harden took the ball forward, seized the slackness of the Lakers' defense, and pushed it straight to Parsons.

The Lakers had a clean under the basket, Parsons caught the ball and dunked with two hands.

This is the game, the Rockets scored the first quick counterattack.

In the regular season, they rely on this quick backcourt to serve, and their opponents' unsettled foothold, bringing the team's young advantage to the extreme.

The Lakers attacked from the position, Li Liang no longer squat at the bottom corner, he began to take the ball to respond.

Harden started to defend against Li Liang, but he didn't stick to it.

Li Liang first gave the ball to Howard squeezed into the middle of the road, then sneaked to the bottom corner of the right, and made a cross screen with Kobe.

Howard can beat the ball on his own, but Li Liang has a chance on the right corner.

Howard chose to pass the ball, Li Liang took the ball and shot again!

In fact, this opportunity is not particularly good, because Harden still keeps up.

Replaced by another player, this ball will not be thrown.

But Li Liang didn't care. I played in the playoffs. Did the rims of the playoffs become smaller?

The result is three points again!

As soon as McHale couldn't see the wrong one, Li Liang split the three and immediately called a timeout.

But it is useless to call a timeout. Li Liang's feel has always been firm and stable.

And once his three-pointer opened, it means the Lakers' offense is alive.

Kobe's singles, Howard's bread inside, Nash's pass, and even Ci Shiping's nerve knife.

Because Li Liang opened three points, the offensive space will become larger, and their defensive pressure will become smaller.

And the Rockets here, Alexander, let Harden and Li Liang? It feels a bit difficult to follow.

Li Liang's speed is not particularly fast, but he runs very well, and his height and arms are long, so Harden doesn't interfere with him.

After getting around this way, Harden went to defend Nash again.

Can Nash be guarded?

You fat man, let's gain weight. Going to defend the center in the future will be more suitable for you.

In the third quarter, Li Liang made 4 of 6 3-pointers, 4 three-pointers, and the Rockets were cast in 5 minutes.

Throughout the third quarter, the Rockets scored 19 points. Harden scored 15 points in the first half. In the second half, Kobe and Li Liang doublet.

Anyway, other people can't do it, just pinch Harden, the Lakers' defense is getting more and more unscrupulous.

While the other Rockets players are really unsatisfactory, Jeremy Lin missed an outside three points.

Parsons made 1 of 5 3-pointers, all supported by Delfino and Garcia two veterans.

And Beverly~www.readwn.com~ He took a few chances and hit two three-pointers in the fourth quarter to bring the score a little closer.

But it is only to narrow the difference of 35 points to less than 30 points.

In the third quarter, the Lakers hit a 35:19 Rockets in the third quarter, and the game was put into garbage time.

After the fight, the Lakers should be the main force, but Mike Brown has not responded.

Finally, Li Liang took the ball and asked the referee for a timeout. It was time to change the junk player.

Back at the bench, Li Liang asked: "Why don't you shout a timeout! Look at the score, don't rest?"

Mike Brown spread his hand, "You told me not to shout casually."

"I..." Li Liang had nothing to say, blame me.

The Lakers won the first playoff victory without much suspense. The gap between the two sides is a little too big.
