As long as someone dared come over to help defend him, he could find a way to pass to Wang Le or Pang Bo, creating more opportunities under the basket.
As long as there were more chances under the basket and the opposition did not dare leave it open, opportunities would naturally open up on the perimeter.
Then Zhang Yu and Gesang Zhaxi would be able to shoot threes or drive inside.
So he called for a screen from Zhang Yu.
Using Zhang Yu's screen, he shook off D'Angelo Russell.
The opposition's strategy was to fight through or go around every screen and continue shadowing their man.
That gave Wang Liang a chance to shoot. After using the screen to create a little separation from D'Angelo Russell, before Russell could catch back up, Wang Liang took one dribble inside and pulled up for a Two-pointer from about a meter short of the free throw line.
The basketball arced through the air and dropped into the hoop.
Two-pointer made!
When the Detroit Pistons went on offense next, the Lakers cranked up their defensive intensity to the maximum.
Pang Bo and Wang Le were no slouches on defense.
Zhang Yu went without saying.
Now that Gesang Zhaxi had gotten serious, his defense was quite good as well.
As for Wang Liang, he had always defended like a Mad Dog.
That left D'Angelo Russell unable to break in, so he could only give the ball to King Arthur.
This time, to avoid getting beaten off the dribble, Zhang Yu took two steps back and moved to deny King Arthur's three-pointer.
Sure enough, he guessed right again. King Arthur missed the three. Under the basket, Pang Bo boxed Antoine out, allowing Wang Le to grab the rebound and pass it to Wang Liang. After
