Chapter 176 Lying down to win the Eastern Conference Finals?He Li's one-man show! (big chapter)
Needless to say, He Li's influence in the game, the Nets didn't take a long break in the starting lineup, so they had to come up with two first to limit He Li's performance.

He Li is not stupid. Seeing Keith Van Horn and Kenyon Martin play, he knows what the Nets are planning.

Although Keith Van Horn and Kenyon Martin can't really limit He Li, even double-teaming.

But in the confrontation, He Li will inevitably consume more physical strength, which is actually unnecessary for He Li and the Bucks at this stage.

Therefore, He Li played very smartly, constantly holding the ball to attract double-teams, attracting the Nets' defense, and then breaking through to distribute the ball and give the ball to the right person.

Driven by He Li, Reed and Anthony Mason were very active. One ran around the two bottom corners without the ball, and the other kept going to the basket, either cutting or preparing to catch and shoot.

It just so happened that these two places were supposed to be defended by Keith Van Horn and Kenyon Martin.

The head coach of the Nets, Byron Scott, saw that the difference between the two teams had exceeded 12 points, so he could only hurriedly send the remaining three starters to the field.

Let Kidd, who has a high level of golf quotient and tactical literacy, lead the team to play, and solve He Li, a point that cannot be solved by tactics alone.

Seeing Kidd and others on the field, He Li couldn't hold back immediately, and smiled on the field.

The playoffs are a series. In every game, it is definitely beneficial to consume too much opponent.

The Nets spent a lot of money in the first two rounds of the series, and the last two games were away games, and the situation was even worse.

He Li's idea is that these two home games must be won.

And with the help of the pressure of the game, the main players of the Nets are forced to fight too much on the field and consume too much energy.

After the Nets' main players returned to New Jersey, they didn't have much physical strength to deal with the Bucks, and they had no chance to win any game in this round of the series.

Only in this way, it is possible for the Bucks to take the lead in entering the finals and spend more time recharging their energy to give the Lakers a head-on blow at the beginning and beat the Lakers into a daze.

In addition, if the Bucks can sweep their opponents in the first three rounds of the playoffs, this will virtually bring tremendous pressure to the Lakers.

Even if O'Neal and Kobe are full of confidence, will other Lakers players be afraid of the Bucks?
Basketball is a five-person sport, and any player who is out of form will have a considerable impact on the trend of the game.

Besides, the pressure of playing in the finals is inherently high. Even a superstar player at the level of fmvp will sometimes be in poor condition and be intimidated, let alone an ordinary player.

He Li felt that to beat the Lakers, he had to cut through the mess quickly, without giving the Lakers time to react.

If during the finals, the Lakers reacted and got rid of the initial exhaustion period, the Bucks may instead fall into a passive position.

Of course, the finals are still far away.

However, He Li no longer paid much attention to the Nets.

From the first quarter of the game, He Li can tell that the gap between the Nets and the Bucks is indeed not small.

The most important thing is that the Nets' offense is much worse than the Bucks.

The Bucks' three-pointers are the strongest in the league. If the Bucks are accurate, they can take three-pointers like rain and take away the game in one wave.

There are only a few people in the Nets who can shoot three-pointers, including Kidd, who doesn't feel very good at shooting.

In other words, the Nets mainly rely on two points and two points to score, and the key is to get two points and hit the iron frequently.

If you are unlucky, you won't score half a point in 1 minute.

With the Bucks leading by scoring, the Bucks made another three-pointer, and the difference between the two teams further widened.

In this way, the Nets can easily be hit by the Bucks' offense to morale.

And this is why when other teams meet the Bucks, they are easily hit by the Bucks suddenly, and then they have no power to resist.

Just like the Warriors in the 14-15 season, as long as the three-pointers are accurate and the three-pointers rain, they can win the game in a few minutes.

Other teams and players have never seen this kind of scene, and if they haven't adapted to this kind of game rhythm, they will not be able to accept it, and they will be in chaos.

Either they want to chase points and make a few random shots, or they have no intention of resisting and giving up the game.

In short, the result is more powerful for the Bucks.

Obviously, before the game started, the Nets still did a lot of homework against the Bucks.

After 8 minutes in the second quarter, the point difference between the two teams has widened to 22 points, but the basket was full of resilience both on and off the net. They did not choose to give up or fight randomly. Under Kidd's organization and command, they still played very methodically.

However, what the Nets don't know is that the more they play like this, the happier the Bucks will be.

The current Bucks have enough food, so they are not afraid to fight a war of attrition with the Nets.

On the contrary, the Nets have a high exemption card, and the Bucks will be a little difficult to start.

The Bucks like the attitude of the Nets that every second counts.

"Come on, Jason Kidd lobs to Kenyon Martin and it's a good feed.

But Kenyon Martin failed to jump up, He Li fouled!
This is an early foul!
I really can't see that He Li's pair of unicorn arms is really powerful.

Kenyon Martin was held down by He Li, so he didn't jump up. "

"He Li has only committed two fouls so far, and this is the second.

We all know that He Li's hands are relatively clean no matter whether he is attacking or defending.

Basically, this foul can be concluded that He Li committed it on his own initiative.

He Li is very smart, as long as Kenyon Martin takes off, the ball will basically hit.

Therefore, in order to prevent the Nets from scoring, it is necessary to foul Kenyon Martin in advance.

The number of fouls by the Bucks did not arrive, and this foul was just a serve from outside the Nets.

He Li used a foul to prevent the Nets from hitting a 90-pointer with a probability of more than 2%. This ball was played quite reasonably and quite smartly. "

"Haha, judging by He Li's movement, he should be actively asking for a foul and wanting to rest.

George Karl's timeout today was very tight, and he didn't need it until the critical moment.

But also note that He Li has already played for 20 minutes!

It looked like the child was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

Although He Li played like a superstar at his peak, He Li is still a rookie, only 18 years old.

Therefore, how to use He Li reasonably and how to arrange He Li's playing time reasonably are very important.

That is to say, He Li was smart and felt that he was too tired. He just found out that the Nets were about to receive an alley, so he took the initiative to foul and took a rest. "

In the second quarter, He Li didn't drive Xu Huang very much, but after all, he was constantly being double-teamed. In order to be really restrained, He Li kept running, and bumped into many people during the period, which was really exhausting.

Of course, He Li's physical strength and endurance still have advantages. In fact, it is no problem to play the second quarter.

However, He Li considered that he still has the "personality" of a leg injury, so he must continue to perform the trick.

It would be a bit inappropriate to really drag a "wounded leg" and play the entire first half.

After thinking about this, when He Li made a foul and voluntarily left the field, he deliberately pretended to be unable to walk smoothly.

Seeing this, the on-site commentator raised his mouth a little bit, and then gave He Li his best wishes.

Just like last time, after He Li got off the court, he said a few words to George Karl, took a towel and training clothes, and went directly to the locker room to lie down on the sofa to sleep and rest.

After He Li woke up, the third quarter was over.

One thing to say, He Li slept quite comfortably this time.

It was so comfortable that I accidentally overslept.

The management of the Bucks was also careful. After confirming that He Li was asleep, they asked people to adjust the alarm clock that He Li had set before going to bed, and postponed it for a while.

Anyway, before He Li left the field, the Bucks had a lead of more than 20 points.

And the main force of the Nets played a lot of time in the second quarter, which is destined to be impossible to play the third quarter.

In other words, the Bucks did not suffer much pressure in the third quarter.

That would naturally give He Li more time to rest and recover.

Speaking of He Li's absence in the third quarter, both teams played pretty well.

The Nets are more surprised by Kidd.

Kidd was dubbed by domestic fans as "Basic does not attack". In the fans' impressions, Kidd's shooting is poor, no matter how hard he shoots, it feels like he shares a shooting bag with Kobe.

However, Kidd actually hits around 40% of his shots all the year round, and as for free throws, it is even above 80%.

Kidd is not allowed, just because of poor shooting stability, from time to time there will be several consecutive strikes.

However, Kidd's shooting rate is here. When he shoots accurately, he also scores several times in a row.

In fact, Kidd's impression flow has no basket, but in fact, the player who shoots the ball is the most difficult to guard against. Usually let him shoot when he is empty, but he just can't make it.

But I didn't pay attention to him for a while, but suddenly became very accurate, and suddenly attacked with a cold arrow, which made people bleed three times and six holes.

Kidd scored 3 three-pointers in the third quarter and directly distorted Cassel's face.

Just when Cassell was about to stare at Kidd, Kidd began to connect the teams again.

For a while, Kassel had nothing to do with Kidd.

Fortunately, Tim Thomas suddenly stood up in this quarter, making 7 of 5 shots in a single quarter, including three-pointers and mid-range shots, as well as free throws, helping the Bucks score 13 points.

Relying on the previous advantages and the firepower of the three musketeers in this quarter, the Bucks scored one after another. After all, they entered the break with a 16-point advantage and waited for He Li's return.

"We still have an advantage of 16 points, and now we have waited for He Li's return, the next battle will be easier to fight.

Of course, judging by the state of the Nets in the third quarter, it is not impossible for the Nets to completely reverse the score through the fourth quarter.

To be on the safe side, I decided to send a few more starters on the court. "

The Bucks are bound to win the two home court advantages at the beginning of this round of the series.

Even George Karl has to consider the consumption of the Bucks' main players, but there is still suspense in the game, and you can't relax at this time.

However, George Karl saw that He Li returned safely, but he just emphasized that now is not the time to celebrate in advance and be complacent, so that the players can continue to maintain a good attitude towards the game.

Instead of making too many tactical arrangements.

George Karl likes to hand over the game to the star of the team most of the time, so that he can relax and the star can play easily.

Of course, if you lose the game, you will turn your back on it.

But when he met He Li, he never had the chance to turn his face against He Li.

George Karl believes that this time, He Li will not give him any chance to turn his face.

At the end of the break, the Bucks did not directly send all the starters. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, He Li brought the big dog back on the court.

The head coach of the Nets, Byron Scott, saw the arrangement of the Bucks' players. Without hesitation, he chose to try again and sent Kenyon Martin up.

Although the Nets did not double-team He Li too much, they have always adopted a two-on-one strategy.

At least one of Keith Van Horn and Kenyon Martin should be on the floor to make Ho Li less comfortable on offense.

Although He Li came back after a break, Byron Scott didn't know why He Li returned to the locker room.

The on-site commentary also discussed when He Li was away before. How is He Li's injury?Why is it that in the recent games, I often saw He Li returning directly to the locker room after leaving the field?

Because it is the playoffs, the news released by the team cannot be fully believed.

The Bucks said that He Li's injury is not a big problem, and He Li's performance in the game is really good, which makes people think that He Li's injury is fine.

But some time ago, He Li broke through so much and played so hard, but now he is selfless?
The Nets didn't use Jordan's law much against He Li, and more of it was zone defense and double-teaming.

In the past, He Li could naturally use his powerful offensive ability to treat defensive players as nothing, but now He Li is obviously playing back.

So what the reason is, it can only be a matter of opinion.

Everyone is guessing about He Li's injury. As the Bucks' opponent, the Nets feel that He Li is trying to hold on.

He Li can only maintain the current state if he is closed.

But don't use too much force, otherwise you won't be able to stop.

If He Li needs to return to the locker room during the game, he should go back for maintenance and adjustments.

Sometimes it takes a long time, and even miss a whole game.

In Byron Scott's view, that's how it should be.

The vast majority of Nets players also think so.

Therefore, even with a big score in the fourth quarter, the Nets are still fighting endlessly, wanting to sack and kill the Bucks with one punch and one kick.

"Since you don't double-team me, then I'll go all out!"

Taking advantage of only Kenyon Martin defending the line alone, He Li began to play singles with the ball outside the three-point line again, to see if he could use the three-point rain to wipe out the Nets.

Kenyon Martin didn't take He Li's harsh words at first.

Kenyon Martin's bounce, this block, He Li made 5 shots, was interfered twice, was blocked once, but also scored two goals.

He Li's scoring efficiency is no problem, but He Li needs to go one step further to quickly force Kidd and others back to the court.

So call the big dog and let the big dog cooperate with him in the pick-and-roll.

The quality of the big dog block is not good, but it can be disassembled and put down.

It is impossible for Kenyon Martin to repeatedly jump horizontally outside the three-point line and under the basket within a second, and defend He Li and the big dog.

The Nets inevitably replaced Keith Van Horn and used Keith Van Horn to defend He Li.

Then use Kenyon Martin to limit the big dog layup.

However, George Karl saw the Nets make a substitution, so he followed suit. Ray Allen and Cassell played together, and the big dog who had just scored 6 points was replaced again, and Anthony Mason was used to share He Li's pressure.

How can the Bucks stand up to the Nets when the main force hits the Nets?Both teams are mainly starters, but the Bucks' starters are inherently stronger.

Not to mention that the main players of the Nets have played in these four quarters, and there is really no time to rest.

On the other hand, for the Bucks, He Li was exhausted in the first half, but only played half a quarter in the second half, and his physical strength was still strong.

不过何力的另类三节打卡，却在26分钟的时间里，拿下了27分6篮板9助攻2抢断1盖帽的豪华数据。

All in all, people are more popular than people.

He Li lay down for a while, and the victory or loss of the game was almost the same.Then he came up again to make a final decision and take away the game.

Encountering such a weird thing and a weird opponent, the Nets are not only angry with the players, but also the coach.

In the end, there was no way. The Nets coach Byron Scott still chose the strategy of keeping the green hills without worrying about no firewood, and took the initiative to withdraw the main force.

The Bucks were also straightforward. Seeing the Nets admit defeat, they also withdrew their main players and let Reed and Alston lead the team to score points on the court.

"85 to 107, the Bucks won the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals without any suspense."

"The two teams are the No. [-] team in the Eastern Conference and the No. [-] team in the Eastern Conference. After careful comparison, it is not difficult to see that the overall strength of the Bucks is still stronger than that of the Nets.

But the Nets are not without hope of winning the Eastern Conference Finals.

In the end, the winner of the game is still He Li.

Will He Li's injury become the biggest X factor in this Eastern Conference Finals?

Will He Li's physical strength become another important factor restricting He Li's strength?
This is really exciting! "

The Bucks played normally and won the Nets by a big score, but the suspense of this round of the Eastern Conference finals is still there.

As the commentary said, He Li's injury situation has become the most critical factor in this round of competition.

However, no one thought about it at all, and He Li had no injuries at all.

Even the head coach of the team who was also studying the finals opponents in advance at the same time did not have any doubts, but seriously considered this issue.
