Chapter 416 Lineup Disadvantages ([-]rd update today)
The two teams came and went, and the game entered the official timeout at the last 3 minutes and 58 seconds of the first quarter.

李越总计13投9中，其中三分球5投3中，罚球次数为0，暂时拿到21分。

D'Antoni arranged for Li Yue to rest, and the offensive burden of the Lakers fell to Kobe. Fortunately, Kobe was mainly responsible for the organization before, and Curry, who wanted to guard against it, didn't play much. His physical reserves were still sufficient, but he no longer took on the heavy responsibility of defense.

On the Warriors side, Curry, who hadn't played much before, also continued to play.

With Luol Deng hitting the iron with a three-pointer, the first quarter of the game came to an end, and the two teams tied at 36.

After a brief summary and analysis, the second quarter started. Kobe asked to play for a few more minutes on the grounds that he was not in a good state before. Gary Vitti did not object, and D'Antoni did not stop him.

The Warriors were replaced by Luol Deng and Livingston to lead the team. The combination of the two was amazing. At first, the Lakers were caught off guard, but Kobe quickly responded by making consecutive mid-range shots, and the two sides returned to the starting point.

The Warriors have a very fast pace, the Lakers deal with it calmly, and the two sides only made a single substitution adjustment.

While Li Yue and Walton were chatting about whether Kobe could win the scoring title, the referee blew his whistle and called Clarkson for a foul.

With 7 minutes and 22 seconds left before the end of the second quarter, the Lakers trailed 49 to 51, and D'Antoni waved at Li Yue.

Li Yue got up and walked to the technical stage, first took off his outer shirt, then his trousers, twisted left and right to warm up briefly, and raised his hand to give Kobe a high-five.

"Destroy them!" Bryant's face was fierce, and there was a trace of fatigue in his eyes, which seemed to be due to playing for 17 consecutive minutes.

Li Yue nodded, clapped hands with Clarkson again, and walked shoulder to shoulder with Marshall into the court.

The other three teammates are Covington, Landry and Gobert.

The five players on the Warriors side are Livingston, Thompson, Luol Deng, Barnes, and Speights, and the lineup is relatively small.

The point difference between the two teams is small, but the Lakers have committed three fouls in the second quarter, which may have subsequent impacts.

"Curry hasn't appeared yet? There is something." Li Yue thought in his heart, guessing the strategy of the Warriors.

Before thinking too much, the referee blew his whistle.

The Warriors served from the left sideline, and Livingtons waited with his hands raised.

Luol Deng started from the left 45 degrees, used Barnes to cover and cut inside, and went straight to the short corner.

As soon as the man ran past, Barnes stepped up and lifted it up, protecting his waist with a pass.

At the same time, Luol Deng made an emergency stop and turned back to the sideline, forming an off-ball cross screen with Livingston.

Barnes lightly tossed the pass, Luol Deng caught the ball and immediately divided it into a short corner on the left. Livington took the ball and hit Marshall with his back.

Levin has a great advantage in height, and Marshall is not a strong player. Levin swayed twice at random, and then easily turned over and took off. However, the basketball did not fly out as expected, but was shot off by Marshall quickly.

Cheers sounded in the arena. Levin bent down to grab the basketball, turned around, pulled low and swept in front of his body, and rushed close to Marshall.

With only 3 seconds left in the attack time, Levin made an emergency stop to pull the ball and turned around, forcing a jump and mid-range shot against the interference.

when!The basketball hit the hoop and fell.

The Warriors quickly returned to defense, Gobert caught the rebound with a light leap, and the Lakers launched a counterattack.

Marshall took the ball to the top of the arc, controlled it for a moment, and then threw it to Gobert who followed him.

Li Yue raised his hand on the left waist, took the ball from Gobert, and turned around to face the basket in a three-threat pose.

Thompson raised his right hand, stepped forward to grab the whole person, and actively exerted pressure.

Li Yue crossed his steps to test, and Thompson moved sideways, without changing his center of gravity at all.

But this method is difficult to move forward and quickly. Li Yue made a sudden move, strode the ball back and retreated, stood firm and jumped directly to shoot.

Thompson kicked the ground with both feet, and the speed was as fast as a basketball player's limit, and he still missed half a palm.

Boom!The basketball hits the hoop and into the net.

The audience applauded and cheered, but unfortunately, stepping on the line when taking off only counted as 2 points.

The two teams tied at 51. Levin took the ball across the center line and passed it to Speights who followed up on the right.

The Lakers' defensive formation has not yet been fully completed. Luol Deng and Barnes both stepped forward to cover, not only blocking the defender, but also clearing the space under the basket. With the interference stronger.

The basketball hit the backboard and rebounded into the net. The referee whistled and called Li Yue for a foul and gave him an additional penalty.

The audience booed wildly, and the cries of "garbage referee" also came out. Li Yue waved helplessly to indicate that it was unnecessary.

This time it was indeed a foul, mainly because he forgot that Speights was fast and belonged to the flexible and fat type.

The referee assigned free throws, the Warriors made personnel rotation adjustments, and Green came on the field to replace Luol Deng.

Curry sat on the bench, with a towel over his head, and seemed to know the game well.

The penalty was also hit, and the score became 51 and 54.

The Lakers attacked, the announcer took the lead in shouting, and the audience shouted LETSGOLA in unison.

The Marshall ball came to the top of the arc, handed it to Li Yue, and strode to the right.

Unexpectedly, Levin did not follow the defense, but carried out a pincer attack with Li Yue of Barnes's team, and other Warriors players moved forward in various ways.

Li Yue turned his back against the two of them in an instant, raised his hand and threw the ball to the right elbow area based on his feeling.

Turning around and looking again, Marshall caught the ball and hit the basket, but Green actually shrunk back from the free throw line to defend, just in time.

The basketball hit the board and fell. Green picked up the basketball and threw it towards the center line.

Levin caught the ball and took it to the right at 45 degrees, with his back against Covington and walked in, and the Lakers followed suit.

The area at the top of the arc was vacated, and Green, who was one step late, took the pass and made three strong steps against Landry.

when!The basketball hit the hoop and fell.

Green jumped up and made a big tip-up against Gobert and Landry.

boom!The basketball hit the board and rebounded into the net, 51 to 56.

The Lakers attacked, Li Yue took the ball to the left wing, raised his hand and passed it to Landry in the elbow area, and ran straight to the bottom corner to block Levin.

Marshall took the opportunity to cut outside, and Landry raised his hand to pass the ball, but turned around and rushed to the basket.

The three Warriors suddenly contracted to double-team, and Landry was ready to jump and throw.

when!The basketball hit the hoop and fell.

Speights caught it and passed it to Green nearby. The Lakers quickly turned and retreated.

But Green held the ball with both hands and made a strong long pass to the frontcourt. Livingston caught the ball and ran wildly. The Lakers only had two players in place.

Levin rushed to the free throw line, put his back against Marshall, and made strong tops again and again.

Marshall was hard to resist and retreated frequently.

Li Yue thought for a moment, raised his foot and moved sideways to help defend, but the basketball flew directly under the ring.

Barnes caught the ball and scored an easy layup, and the Lakers trailed 51 to 58.

This is the first time that the two teams have such a big gap tonight. D'Antoni got up and called a 20-second timeout.

Marshall was really having a hard time defending against Livingston, so they had to arrange Iguoda's first game in advance.

After the arrangement was completed, Kobe patted Li Yue on the shoulder: "Don't stop, destroy them."

In the same sentence, the meaning is obviously to encourage Li Yue to fight as much as possible.

And this lineup really needs Li Yuelai to open up the situation, and the five members of the team expressed doubts.

Li Yue nodded again. In fact, he was ready to execute it before, but he didn't expect the Warriors to suddenly change their defensive strategy.

In any case, Kobe can no longer be disappointed.

A whistle sounded and a short pause ended.

On the Warriors' side, Curry finally made his debut, along with Bogut, who replaced Speights and Bogut.

"The Lakers may have made mistakes in their rotation." Miller said, "The Warriors have switched back to the starting lineup, and the Lakers only have three starters. Covington and Gobert are easy to become shortcomings. Kobe should not play 17 minutes in a row. "

"Actually, it's not a mistake. The Lakers only have Kobe and Li Yue as two strong ball-holding points, and Iguodala and Landry are more defensive." Thomas said, "When they can't suppress the Warriors like they suppressed the Hawks, The shortcomings of the lineup are completely exposed, so that there must be someone on the court to hold the ball, otherwise it is easy to encounter targeted defense."

"That's why I think the Warriors have an [-]% chance of winning," Miller said. "The key is that they can hold Li Yue to full fire, and once Li Yue relaxes a little, they can take the opportunity to take the lead."

PS: I originally wanted to skip this content, but there is no foreshadowing, and it will appear abrupt later, three more tonight.
