1244. 30 points in a single quarter!
It's simply unstoppable!
After playing for 44 seconds, the Lakers' defense against Liu Mang became fierce. After the Lakers finally hit a mid-range shot, the Eagles attacked. Kobe and Fisher came to prevent Liu Mang from receiving the serve. Kobe completely
The court was pressing hard. When Liu Mang went out to catch the lob and serve, Fisher followed closely and defended, not giving Liu Mang a chance to dribble to advance the singles!
Liu Mang was not in a hurry and let McGrady hold the ball to organize the offense.
McGrady didn't want to compete with Liu Mang for the ball at this time. Liu Mang was in good condition and Mai Mama always focused on the overall situation, but of course he was happy if he had to hold the ball.
After McGrady advanced to the frontcourt, Liu Mang asked for the ball from beyond the three-point line. Unexpectedly, Kobe began to move forward!
Liu Mang quickly ran toward the bottom corner, and Fisher took the opportunity to pull up from the bottom corner to help Liu Mang block Kobe's Prince to block Liu Mang.
Double team without the ball!
The Lakers can't control that much anymore. Once Liu Mang has a chance to catch the ball from outside the three-point line, the Lakers will directly attack Liu Mang from a double flank. The Eagles actually have a direct four-on-three opportunity in the finals!
Prince's 45-degree angle was inaccurate. When Kobe and Fisher were trying to block Liu Mang, he chose to cut in. McGrady quickly distributed the ball, and Prince threw a throw from the left side of the three-second zone...it went in!
8 to 2! The Eagles continue to maintain a 6-point lead.
When the Lakers attacked, Fisher missed a three-pointer from the corner.
The Lakers' offense was obviously affected by emotions. Kobe's high post was flanked by Liu Mang and Prince, and Fisher missed an open shot!
As for Odom, he seemed to be reminiscing about Liu Mang's two three-pointers. When he saw Fisher's three-pointer almost missed the three-pointer and only missed the basket, he actually smiled stupidly and stood under the basket to rebound the ball.
All taken away by the positive Kwame Brown...
When the Eagles attack, Liu Mang continues to be taken care of.
The focus of the Lakers' defense is to block Liu Mang's opportunities from outside the three-point line. Anything will do. Liu Mang can no longer shoot three-pointers. Liu Mang will be passed by Kobe from outside the three-point line, and his outside movement will be blocked by pick-and-rolls.
Double-teamed, Liu Mang continued to pick and roll with Prince. During the pick and roll, he suddenly turned around and accelerated into the basket. McGrady broke through the emergency stop, attracted the attention of the other side's defense and then passed the ball to Liu Mang. Liu Mang made a layup and got two
point.
Yao Ming was very helpless. His pace was slow today and he didn't even block the outside line. Liu Mang didn't even need to change direction. He turned around and came in. How could he defend?
In the fourth minute of the first quarter, Liu Mang did not get a three-point opportunity for almost three minutes. Instead of shooting from the outside, he caused a foul and a layup in the paint. The rest of the Eagles also took advantage of Liu Mang being flanked without the ball.
After scoring continuously, the Lakers finally gave Liu Mang a chance to catch the ball from outside the three-point line. McGrady's first passing target has always been to Liu Mang!
The first time Liu Mang reached the 45-degree angle on the left, the ball was passed over. Liu Mang caught the ball and started the quick shooting master. By the time Odom reacted and pounced on him, Liu Mang had already shot the three-pointer!
The third three-pointer!
17 to 6, less than half a quarter, the Eagles lead by 11 points! Liu Mang also happened to have 11 points!
McGrady passed the ball in a timely manner, and his teammates also took the initiative to block him inside the three-point line. The opponent was afraid of his outside shooting, fearing that he would run out after the pick-and-roll. Therefore, the Lakers' defense was very weird. Liu Mang picked-and-rolled, and they actually
Block the line, not block Liu Mang's entry.
Although three-pointers are important, they are actually more about creating opportunities for inside scoring. Even Curry, who averaged 30 points per game in the season when he won the scoring title, only accounted for "only" 43% and half of his three-pointers.
The above scores are still within the three-point line, and precisely because the three-pointer is powerful, it is easier to break through or cut in.
Liu Mang exploded in the first quarter!
There are not many three-point opportunities. Except for the two unconventional three-pointers at the beginning, only four three-pointers were taken after the first quarter. In this case, the three-pointers that can be successfully shot are generally good chances. The next three three-pointers are usually good.
3 of 4 from the field and 5 of 6 from 3-point range in a single quarter!
However, although it is "fewer", the record for three-pointers in a single game in the Finals is 7, held by Scottie Pippen and Steve Smith.
Liu Mang finished the first nine minutes of the first quarter and scored 5 three-pointers!
It is impossible for Curry to achieve Liu Mang's performance by himself, but Liu Mang's own strength, coupled with Curry's three-pointers and running positions, produced a superb performance!
It's useless for the Lakers to adjust their tactics and players. No matter how they adjust, they still need to double attack Liu Mang. They don't have to double attack in advance. They need to double attack without the ball. He's so good at running!
There is some gap between Curry's off-ball movement and Ray Allen, a master of movement who turned into a full-time pitcher after meeting Francis, but his off-ball movement is also top-notch. Liu Mang himself has experienced Ray Allen's lack of movement before.
The ball movement and the ability to use the position of the players on the field to run out of space are very good!
Ten minutes into the first quarter, after the effect of Liu Mang's Curry's star card ended, the Lakers did not dare to let him take three-point opportunities, and Liu Mang's mid-range and short-range scoring continued!
The Lakers, who were in panic from the beginning, were in complete chaos, in complete chaos from the beginning!
In the first quarter, Liu Mang made 10 of 13 shots, 5 of 6 three-pointers, and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 30 points in a single quarter!
The madness outside the three-point line allowed Liu Mang to get a lot of offensive opportunities inside the three-point line, and they were all very easy offensive opportunities. He made 5 of 7 shots, and was fouled on two shots, plus a 3-point shot.
1. Liu Mang scored 30 points in a single quarter!
Liu Mang broke the playoff single-quarter scoring record!
The record for points scored in a single quarter in the playoffs is not held by Jordan, nor by George Gervin, Barkley, Iverson, Malone, Isaiah Thomas and other postseason scoring masters who have scored 20 points in a single quarter in the playoffs.
, but a less famous player.
Liu Mang's 30 points in a single quarter broke the historical record of 29 points in a single quarter in the playoffs held by Slippy Floyd, a former Warriors non-famous star who averaged 12 points per game in his career!
What a coincidence. When Floyd set the playoff single-quarter scoring record, his opponent happened to be the Lakers. Now Liu Mang has set a new historical record, and his opponent is still the Lakers!
At the same time, the record of 25 points in a single quarter of the Finals held by Isaiah Thomas is also dead. Fortunately, the opponent of Isaiah Thomas to set this record is the Lakers...
And Liu Mang’s opponents who broke two records were both the Lakers!
The Eagles once again scored more than 40 points in a single quarter. The Eagles made 15 of 24 shots in a single quarter. Liu Mang made 10 of 13 shots in a single quarter, helping his teammates achieve an excellent shooting rate of 5 of 11. The Eagles shot 15 of 24 in a single quarter.
Got 44 points!
On the Lakers side, Kobe beat Prince continuously and scored 4 of 12 points in a single quarter. The Lakers only scored 24 points in the first quarter!
Compared with the first game, this time is even more terrifying! The Eagles led by 20 points in a single quarter!
Chapter completed!
