Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 855 Weakness and Thickness

After Ilyasova came on the field, the team's offensive position changed significantly. After Teodosic held the ball for halftime, Ilyasova blocked Waiters from the bottom line. George took advantage of the opportunity to cut inside. Slow chose to switch defenses in time, was taken to the bottom line by George, and left Waiters to Ilyasova. Teodosic handed the ball to Ilyasova, and beat Waiters, although Waiters was on the outside Among the players, they belong to the one with very good core strength, but the height difference of 25 cm is placed here. After Ilyasova made a strong push and pushed against Waiters' mid-range shot, Waiters still couldn't interfere. It's a pity that Ilya Sowa himself didn't find the rhythm of the shot and missed this opportunity.

Fortunately, George has quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed the rebound before Winslow, and sent the ball to the basket before Monroe made up the defense!

When he was with the Nets for the first time, George was very used to cooperating with the space-based power forward Anderson, and now cooperating with Ilyasova is similar.

Conversely, on the defensive end, since the Heat do not have a strong striker to punish the Nets, and Ilyasova is at least taller than Robertson to protect the penalty area, the reduction in this area is not obvious. The Heat did not find a suitable opportunity. Waiters habitually yelled "AND ONE" after a forced shot, and the referee also habitually ignored him.

Looking back, the Nets attacked, Leonard caught the ball at 45 degrees, rushed to the corner and then made a mid-range shot, helping the team narrow the point difference to 2 points.

The Nets use the power of stars to solve the offensive problem, while the Heat need to make a fuss through better teamwork. Knight once again used the pick-and-roll to tear apart the Nets' defense. The team dribbled the ball in the restricted area and then sent a back pass. Winslow scored a layup under the basket. This young player, Pat Riley wanted to train him as Leonard, but he also had good skills. His body, but his improvement in shooting and holding the ball is hopeless, just because the Heat currently lack players who can play, and now they are placed in the fourth position as a blue-collar.

It was still Ilyasova and George's off-ball pick-and-roll cooperation, and the Heat still chose to switch defenses. Facing Waiters' defense, Ilyasova chose to fire directly from the outside this time, but it was a pity that he still failed to hit.

Although the two shots failed to hit, the changes that Ilyasova brought to the Nets' offense are visible to the naked eye, including Spoelstra also aware of the crisis, but this is the Nets. A kind of conspiracy, if George and Ilyasova's off-ball pick-and-roll did not switch defenses, George singled Waiters under the basket, and the scene would be even more brutal. Replacing Waiters with Josh Richardson may be a solution to the problem, but Waiters' breakthrough ability can help the team better tear the Nets' defense, which is another offensive end for the Heat. Something very dependent on.

As a championship coach, Spoelstra has something in his stomach. He knows the trade-offs in personnel deployment, so he is not in a hurry to make arrangements. Unfortunately, after all, the cards in his hand are not as buggy as Stevens . At the same time, it is also very speechless. After all, the Heat formed the Big Three at the cost of sacrificing the combat effectiveness of the role players. How could the Nets be so strong in the starting lineup? The substitutes are not bad at all. Without Curry and Ball Zingis is still so strong.

The Heat attacked, and Waiters made a two-pointer with a retreat step after a forced breakthrough, which confirmed Spoelstra's recognition of his offensive end on the field. Then, he stepped forward in a timely manner to double-team and helped Knight successfully cut off Special Olympics. After successfully stealing the ball in Doncic's hand, the two completed an alley-oop in the penalty area, and Waiters slammed the ball into the basket heavily.

After the Heat scored, the Nets immediately called a timeout. Teodosic, who had just been intercepted, showed embarrassment. That is, during the fight just now, his finger poked Waiters' thigh. I was pinned and needs urgent attention.

Livingston replaced Teodosic on the stage, and the Nets' defensive problems became more obvious. The tall and long-armed Livingston is obviously more suitable for defending the opponent's wing players on the defensive end. He and George are obviously a bit powerless to deal with the Heat's pair of Knight and Waiters in the backcourt. With Teodosic Teodosic injured, the Heat unexpectedly took the initiative in the game and ended the first quarter with a 32:23 lead.

On the Nets side, a small problem lies in the team's offensive initiation, which is actually very dependent on the team's point guard. From the beginning of the 1213 season to the 1516 season, the Nets completed four years and three championships. Among them, the team's starting lineup has always been dual-core driven in combing offense, and in the selection of the second point guard, from Jeremy Lin From Reggie Jackson to Dinwiddie, they are all very good second point guards. Brogdon, who originally planned to succeed Dinwiddie, is also a very mature point guard. The team's system can actually be continued very well. It's just that the Nets have to change as their opponents become stronger, and the team's system also changes accordingly. Without Green, George and Leonard are not good at holding the ball, and the tasks are naturally more concentrated At the point guard position. In this case, the team lost two point guards, Curry and Teodosic, one after another. Can the impact be small?

That is to say, the thickness of the Nets' lineup is still alive, and they can still hold the situation at the moment, especially after the opening of the second quarter, Joe Johnson and Van Vleet's performance is not bad, helping the team to hold on to the point difference . As his status in the team continued to decline, Van Vleet also slowly fell back from the "floating" at the beginning of the season, and settled down to polish himself. In fact, as an undrafted pick, there must be something that is not recognized by most of the scouts in this league. There is no such thing as the Nets' "smart eyes and pearls", which means that they are "able to make". mentality is really a bit of a problem. After Teodosic came to the team, Van Vleet's playing time was shortened, which also made him more aware of his position.

For Jiang Mingliang, who advocated the signing of Van Fleet and has never planned to transfer him to the nbdl, Van Vleet can grow into a qualified backup point guard this year. don't think about it. The same is true of Wood, who also has a lot of problems. He has a little better luck this year, catching up with Porzingis' injury, and the Nets are empty inside, so he can get more playing time. But in fact, he still has a big problem on the defensive end. The team is also stepping up to help him correct some wrong habits.
