So, after scoring the goal, Li Ang continued to provoke Pierce verbally: "Do you have the heart to let your little brother face my firepower? I'm going to guard against you, don't you come to guard against me?"

This is what Li Ang got from Kobe. Kobe told Li Ang that he must find a way to let Pierce defend himself.

Although Pierce is a star and Tony is just a role player, from the defensive end alone, Tony is much more difficult than Pierce!

Tony has no tasks on the offensive end, so he can devote himself to the defense.

But Pierce is different. This guy has to consider both offense and defense, so the defense is definitely not as superb as Tony.

Li Ang is now trying to stimulate Pierce all the time, let him take the initiative to defend himself and relieve his ID pressure.

Kobe's methods are real dogs, so he picks soft persimmons.

But Li Ang likes it very much!

So in the next few rounds, Li Ang and Pierce never stopped talking about the trash talk.

The attacks of both sides also fought back and forth.

On the Mavericks, relying on the system that has been integrated for a season and the complete body of Dirk, the offense is very smooth.

On the Clippers, although the tactics were not very successful, the triangular offense was often stuck.

But there is no way to say about the personal abilities of Li Ang and Duncan.

Not to mention Li Ang’s shooting and goal against Tony Allen, Duncan and Li Ang can still play some beautiful small cooperation.

For example, in the fifth minute of the first quarter, Duncan grabbed the rebound and then accurately found Li Ang with a back pass with a back pass, assisting Li Ang to score a dunk easily.

Duncan's back pass was very light, as if he was just throwing the ball back casually.

However, this seemingly random pass is just right.

These small cooperation between Duncan and Li Ang are nothing more than triangular attacks and have nothing to do with tactics.

But the fact that they were able to cooperate like this was purely due to years of experience and talent.

Relying on the personal abilities of Li Ang and Duncan, the Clippers seized the score and fell behind by only 2 points after the first quarter.

The lineup is good, it is so willful. Even if the tactics are executed in a mess, relying on the stars to be strong enough, they can still fight against the opponent.

With the offensive system not fully running-in, it is actually very good that the Clippers can bite the runner-up of the Western Conference last season.

But Li Ang naturally could not be satisfied with such a result. The task of 72 wins made Li Ang unable to easily let any game win.

The triangular offense, in terms of the first quarter, was not effective.

Li Ang is still patient with the triangle offense. After all, Jordan spent half a season adapting when he first came into contact with the triangle offense.

But at this moment, Li Ang needs to make some other way to ensure that he wins the game first.

If this game continues to rely on triangle attacks, it will be a bit too difficult.

So, during the break between the festival, Li Ang took the initiative to look at Dunleavy: "We have to speed up the offense and defense rhythm in the second quarter."

Dunleavy was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes!"

How can this be called having no opinion? This is called actively absorbing opinions from grassroots level!

Li Ang then continued to talk about his ideas, and then Dunleavy and Lu Zi helped improve.

In this way, the Clippers changed their strategy to deal with the Mavericks in the second quarter.

Ross is ready to go, and he has a low presence in the first quarter, and he will have more opportunities to perform under this tactic!

The break between the festival ends and the second quarter begins.

As soon as both sides came on the court, he heard the Mao girl stand up and shout, "Come on, kill the Clippers!"

Li Ang glanced at her, and instead raised her head slightly proudly.

Pierce also told Tony Allen: "You go to defend Barnes, and I will defend Li Ang in the second quarter."

"ah?"

"What, you got Li Ang scored 9 points in the first quarter. How do you defend? I will teach you how to defend Li Ang in the second quarter. I'll be optimistic. I will only do it once."

After saying that, Pierce opened his arms and waited for the Clippers to pass halftime.

Tony Allen shrugged, he felt that he was doing well in the first quarter.

In fact, Tony was really good at defending, Pierce was just being criticized by Li Ang in the first quarter.

How could a strong person like Pierce hide behind his younger brother?

Li Ang was very happy to see Pierce coming to defend himself.

Li Ang so deliberately slowed down this round and did not attack the triangle, but prepared to fight Pierce on the top of the arc.

While lowering the center of gravity, Pierce shook his head and squirted trash words, giving him the feeling of singing rap.

This is probably racial talent.

Li Ang just looked at Pierce with a smile, and then suddenly pierced to the left.

Just as Pierce moved one step to block it, Li Ang completely passed No. 34 in front of him with a direction that was almost unslowed.

Pierce's lateral movement speed is not as top-notch. In fact, Pierce's defensive efficiency is not high before his career until the Mavericks.

In the original history, Pierce only became more defensively efficient after teaming up with Garnett.

On the one hand, it was because KG's spirit infected Pierce, which made him start working hard on the defensive end.

Secondly, because Garnett did a good job in PP cleaning, it indirectly helped PP improve its defensive efficiency.

But now this Mavericks don’t have anyone like KG to help PP wipe PP.

After Li Ang passed Pierce, Duncan hurriedly ran out to make room for Li Ang.

The eggplant wanted to run out, but the speed was too slow. Before she could run out, Li Ang had already jumped up.

In this way, the egg skin was slapped and Li Ang successfully played Pierce in a clean and neat way!

After scoring the goal, Li Ang shrugged at the eggplant: "Don't try to stop me."

The egg skin is wronged, I didn't even want to stop you.

I can't escape!

Seeing that Li Ang easily broke through himself and succeeded in blocking, Pierce was so embarrassed.

The defense failed in the first round, who can hold on to the face?

Pierce looked at Li Ang, then looked at Tony Allen.

Tony Allen was speechless, you were just showing off your power, so I'd better be on guard!

Pierce pretended nothing happened and ran forward on his own, hoping to get back on the offensive end.

But Li Ang's defense against Pierce is quite strict. According to Carlisle's system, he encourages players to share more balls on the offensive end, and even has a one more principle.

Even if you get a shot opportunity, don't rush to shoot and pass more, so that the next teammate who receives the ball will often get better opportunities.

But today Pierce doesn't want to spread it even once.

Pierce finally played Li Ang on his back and made a jump shot.

But Li Ang touched the bottom of the basketball and Pierce was blocked!

The basketball fell backwards, and Li Ang immediately jumped for a second time and caught the basketball.

The Mavericks reacted quickly. In an instant, Tony Allen and Kidd had retreated near the midfield line.

At this time, Ross had already rushed to the center line, but Tony and Kidd, two experienced defenders, immediately surrounded Ross and did not give the Clippers a chance to counterattack.

Before Li Ang could land in the air, he passed the ball directly to Rose who was running to the front.

Rose received the basketball, but Kidd and Tony were not worried.

It doesn't matter, Ross has been surrounded to death, and this first-year rookie can't rush.

Xiaobian, it’s not that easy to play fast attack in the NBA.

However, the moment he received the basketball, Ross suddenly became faster as if he had multiple playback!

Kidd and Tony were both shocked. They thought that it was Rose's extreme speed just now, because they were already chasing them with their best efforts.

However, Ross just did not advance at full speed just to wait for Li Ang to pass the ball.

Tony and Kidd know nothing about speed!

After Rose got the ball, he accelerated immediately and passed by Kidd and Tony Allen!

Tony wanted to start grabbing Rose's jersey, but only caught a gust of wind.

Kidd and Tony were covered in goose bumps. What a fucking Rockets!?

Ross successfully threw away Tony and Kidd, and turned the fast attack opportunity that he had nowhere to be used to make a fast attack again.

After rushing to the basket, Ross easily scored a layup to help the Clippers tie the score.

The rookie did not laugh or celebrate, but ran back very calmly.

It seems that all this is just a routine operation.
