basketball never sleeps

Chapter 138 The wind blew through my trousers, making them slightly cool.

The three-point shot in the opening game has been a very common operation in the past, but now, it is unimaginable for many people.

In the playoffs, most coaches will seek stability. The Suns, which shot the most three-pointers in the regular season, have reduced their three-pointers by 20%. Seattle, the three-point team second only to the Suns, has seen a sharp drop in its three-pointers.

40%.

Every point and every offensive possession in the playoffs may be related to the team's efforts for a year. In this case, most people will become conservative.

As for Mo Wen, his usual well-behaved behavior was mostly a compromise made for the sake of Da Fan's heart.

Speaking of which, under his leadership in the last game, the Heat shot far more three-pointers than they did in the regular season, and in this game, the Nets took aim, so he wouldn't mind further undoing the seal.

Kidd was a little hurt by Mo Wen's "Bald Silk Arrow", but his heart was not small, and he quickly calmed down and threw himself into the subsequent attack.

Having seen Mo Wen's strength, Kidd did not go all out to speed up during the counterattack. After calmly observing the situation of his teammates, he decided to score the goal himself.

Outside the three-point line, Kidd's cross-step failed to completely get rid of Mo Wen, and then he made a very realistic suspended prayer relying on his strong ball control ability.

Combined with Mo Wen's shot just now, it's like hitting an answer ball.

Mo Wen lowered his shoulders and used his weight to hit Kidd's shoulder and step into the open mid-range.

In fact, Carter's condition has never been good. He took 26 shots and scored 27 points in this game. In the last game, he took almost 24 shots and only scored 25 points.

Being chaotic and moving is equivalent to actively raising the difficulty of the course.

In the end, the Nets, which had not led since the second round of the first quarter, suffered their second defeat.

The only surprise for the Nets is Nenad Kostic, who had a relationship with Mo Wen in the Olympics. He was the 24th pick of the same class as Yao and was also a teammate of Milicic. He was stuck on a two-year contract.

I just entered the NBA this year.

The Nets' reaction was also timely. Kidd and Carter, who was chasing Wade, were behind him, waving their arms to destroy Mo Wen's pass and moving towards Mo Wen.

However, Mo Wen's assists are less, but his ability to score in unblocked situations has become a problem for the Nets.

However, the double-digit point difference at halftime (Heat 52:39 Nets) still hardly gave the Nets players much hope.

There was no time to hurt Chun Beiqiu, so Kidd waved to Collins to pass the ball quickly.

O'Pang is both happy and uncomfortable right now. He is happy because the team's playoff run will definitely last until he returns from injury, but he is uncomfortable because it is difficult to negotiate the price of the big contract extension he wanted in the summer.

If you don’t target me, then I will beat you to target me!

While Mo Wen gradually transformed into a black hole on the court, Wade also awakened the darkness...the soul of the black hole.

Wade averaged 27 points per game this season, ranking in the top five in the scoring list. His top explosive power coupled with his weight being two pounds heavier than Mo Wen made his breakthrough a headache for all coaches.

Seeing that Mo Wen was not fooled, Kidd quickly dribbled the ball sideways, then followed up with a feint.

Kidd, who has no outside shooting ability, will ultimately be unable to pry open the Heat's defense.

After this attack and defense, at least from outside the three-point line, the Nets' calculations failed.

Kidd took small steps, spread his hands, and stared at Mo Wen nervously like a duck. Since the beginning of this series, Kidd can't remember how many times he felt that his eyes were not enough.

Mo Wen has been locked up by them. They only need to find a way to lock Wade down and find opportunities to liberate the Nets' scoring ability. The Heat will not be afraid!

From this point of view, there are not many requirements to win the game...

On the other side, the atmosphere in the Heat's locker room was much more relaxed and pleasant. By now in the game, O'Brien seemed to be irrelevant. At least in the first round, there was little need for him to take action.

If you put the Jordan Rules on Pippen, can you withstand Dan's anger?

Is Wade strong?

Of course, and without a doubt.

Clifford hit a jumper from close range to help the Nets regain two points.

Forget about mid-range, you can just shoot three-pointers as you like.

WOW!!!

Like an iceberg, stable and cold.

Players like Bird, Magic, and Duncan who are mentally mature at a young age and have "0 potential" are ultimately in the minority.

Mo Wen was not angry yet, but Wade was angry first.

In the third quarter, after some discussion, the Nets decided to change their thinking, gave up the not very efficient fast break, replaced Jefferson, and put a big man on the court.

However, do you think that if you take off your vest, you will think that I don’t recognize you?

No matter how much foreplay you do, you still won’t be aggressive.

The twin towers turned into three towers, focusing on the inside and rebounding.

Can a pass be defended with just a little more focus?

After Mo Wen slid over and moved sideways, he still had no intention of preventing him from shooting. He opened his arms and looked left and right, sure that he would pass the ball.

Mo Wen's explosive power is not enough to support him to use the first step to get past people like Wade and James, and it is difficult to deceive Kidd's defense with regular fake moves, so like Kidd, he uses piecemeal steps and

The swaying body came to test Kidd's weaknesses.

In just one quarter, Mo Wen scored in double figures (10 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal).

The arms that the home fans had just lowered bounced up again the moment they saw Haslem receive the pass.

The Nets players whose conditioned reflexes were activated all surrendered their center of gravity and rushed towards Mo Wen. After showing a smile for no reason, Mo Wen made a light little jump and crossed the Nets' goal.

Clifford Robinson, lobbed to Haslem who consciously moved towards the basket.

The Nets certainly value him, but in their eyes, Wade, who is having fun alone, is still a level below Mo Wen, who is having fun with his teammates.

Kidd subconsciously wanted to make a duck trap to trap the ball.

In turn, the Heat attacked, and after Mo Wen passed the ball two steps forward, he saw Wade running into a good position leaving the defensive players behind. He passed the ball without looking at anyone and sent the ball to Wade's path.

One of the two was in charge, the other was in charge of the outside. Together with their teammates who were watching the show, they created a good pulling effect.

This is also normal. The growth period of outside players is much longer than that of inside players. And when you are old enough to rely on your body to make a living, there will naturally be less urgency in developing skills.

Although he was slightly shorter, there was still a certain distance between his brain and limbs, so even though he made the move, the ball had already passed through, leaving only a slight cool breeze for him.

Seeing the basketball flying high, Nash, who had just won G2 with the Grizzlies in front of the TV, laughed softly. The Nets were in trouble.

Solving difficult problems can reflect the level of academic masters and widen the gap between people of different levels.

Wade caught the ball, ignored the Nets players' intention to defend, stepped on "Xiao Cheng's" [Mistake Step], broke into the paint in twos and twos, and hit a layup.

Just as Wade ran past Mo Wen, Mo Wen turned his head slightly and pushed the ball backwards, successfully deceiving Kidd. The moment before he wanted to change defense, Mo Wen turned his wrist sharply and turned the push into a reverse.

He dialed the ball and hit the shadow at Kidd's feet.

Kidd, Jefferson, and Carter took turns playing, trying in various ways to restrict Mo Wen.

However, Mo Wen remained indifferent.

The wind blew through my pants, making them slightly cool.

Entering the second quarter, the Nets slightly adjusted their lineup, but continued to implement their policy of blocking Mo Wen.

Mr. Mo will foot the bill for Kidd’s three-point consumption!

Seeing that Mo Wen was not fooled, Kidd deliberately closed the distance between the two and bowed to Mo Wen again.

Anyway, this game still uses the same script as the last one.

In the final quarter, Carter, who had been counting on his elder brother to lead the team, had no choice but to take over the team's offensive banner. Under Frank's chicken soup, he regained the superstar style of play during the Raptors period and became the third black hole on the court.

Led the Nets to launch an 11:4 counterattack.

Bang--

The fast break was out of the question, so Mo Wen immediately signaled to his teammates not to stop and to continue moving.

Not necessarily. After all, if the ball was so easy to intercept, the factory's "Horse Stepping on Flying Arrow" wouldn't have become a classic.

The Nets players, who were full of physical strength and focused, also focused on their defensive goals.

So even though Wade scores a lot, everyone knows what will happen if the ball is in his hands - if there is someone inside, he may be able to defend it, but if there is no one inside, there is no need to defend it.

Mo Wen, who was facing each other, had a cold expression on his face and had no intention of reaching forward. He still maintained the same action as before.

Frank had no other option but to wave his arms up and down the sidelines to remind the players to focus more.

From the high position to the side, Mo Wen kept changing the rhythm of dribbling under his hips, pressing forward step by step towards Kidd in front of him.

This adjustment achieved good results in the first half of the third quarter, and the score was once brought back to single digits. In the second half of the quarter, Mo Wen and Wade came back, looked for these big men to call their names, and again

widen the gap.

Kidd, who was a bit embarrassed, made a big jump and directly chose the ball.

Fighting for strength in the playoffs also requires the team's adaptability and ability to adapt quickly.

In the Heat's offensive round, the helpless Kidd did not dare to neglect any more. After halftime, he used pressure and defense to prevent Mo Wen from making another sudden attack.

During the short break, Kidd has not given up yet. They have successfully limited Mo Wen's rhythm. They just need to find a way to limit Mo Wen's scoring.

After only one round of offensive frustration, Kidd gave up his singles. During the counterattack, he accurately found Carter, and after Carter missed the attack, he put the ball into the hands of his own center.

After Haslem's dunk, the Nets players restrained their defense against Mo Wen, but Mo Wen seized the opportunity and scored many times.

But just when everyone thought Carter was going to rebuild the glory of the top four shooting guards, before the Heat could take action, Carter himself collapsed first.

This is also the offensive rhythm that the Heat played in the last game. As long as Mo Wen holds the ball, whether it is a fast break or a positional battle, he must move as much as possible to mess up the opponent's defensive formation.

After the first quarter, the Nets only scored 19 points, a full 7 points behind the Heat.

The two took turns holding the ball to attack, and they handled most of the Heat's offense in the second quarter.

A turnover and two passes that were almost destroyed showed the effect of targeting.

Kidd couldn't bear it anymore and was forced to throw the answer ball.

The Heat's outer twin star system has been officially upgraded to an outer twin black hole.

In the opening stage, the Heat's offense went quite smoothly, but after Kidd tried to attack again to no avail, the Nets gradually fell into a disadvantage.

If Kidd can't open up, the two outsiders will have to face the same defensive restrictions as in the last game. Even because the Heat players are experienced, it will be even harder to score than in the last game.

The key to the Nets breaking the game is to keep it under wraps while allowing Kidd to open up.

After Collins attracted the defense of Ha Pang next to him, he cleverly passed the ball to Clifford on the other side through a board pass.

But even with Mo Wen's help and supervision, second-year Wade's offense in areas other than the basket is still not stable enough.

Not only did he play nearly the entire game today, but he and Wade consumed a lot of energy on both offense and defense. He was unable to maintain standard shooting movements, and his shooting percentage also dropped. The Nets also lost hope of winning.

No, are you, the Nets, racist?

As for the Nets, Kidd has not yet been able to "recover his form". Carter and Jefferson tried their best, but they still fell short in the face of the rigorous defense that Fan devoted all his attention to.

Fortunately, after Kidd made the action of aiming at the frame, Mo Wen finally gave him basic respect and pretended to step forward to seal his eyes.

Kostic, who came off the bench, relied on his skillful skills to score 8 points from Haslem and Da Zhi in the second quarter, which barely kept the game from losing suspense at halftime.

Why, I destroyed all your inside lines in the last game. This game is not going to target me, the person who scored the most points, but Mo Wen?

Is there any mistake, Mo's positioning is Pippen, and his positioning is Danzi.

One thing to say, Kidd's acting skills are good, and 90% of guards can't do this smooth feint.

What others may have seen was Kidd's poor shooting, which caused the Nets to miss the opportunity to take the lead, but in his eyes, he saw the dilemma behind the Nets.

Mo Wen stopped suddenly in the middle distance, and his movements suddenly slowed down, like a slow motion in a movie.

Their blockade of Mo Wen is still meaningful. Without attracting the opponent's defensive players to expose big holes, Mo Wen's passing has indeed become much more dangerous.

At halftime, both players scored 20 points.

2:5.

Mo Wen almost touched the ball twice, but was pushed away slightly by Kidd with subtle movements in the middle.

Mo Wen and Wade scored 75 points together. Before the MVP voting was over, O'Pang was successfully eliminated.

"37+38, this is a miracle created by two second-year players!" Albert yelled at the top of his lungs in the ESPN commentary room.

"Given high hopes, the Nets troika lost their pants in Miami. They became the best fuel to ignite the flames of Miami."

"To be honest, I hope O'Neal can rest for a while now. I really want to see how far they can go."
