NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal
Chapter 195: Wade hits a 3
The second quarter of the game is about to start, and the Blazers have changed into a half-main and half-reserve lineup, led by Lillard and Batum.
James, who played in the first quarter of the Heat, did not go to rest. This year, his playing time averaged 37 minutes per game. Although it is not as good as the average 40 minutes per game in the Cavaliers 1.0 period, he can also be regarded as a model worker in the league. .
Teammates with James are Norris Cole, Ray Allen, Shane Battier and Lewis, all four teammates have enough three-point threat.
One star!
The lineup set up by the Heat coach Spoelstra can maximize James' historical breakthrough.
At the end of the break, the referee blew the whistle to start the second quarter.
Lewis served in the backcourt to Norris Cole, who advanced.
In the frontcourt, Norris Cole handed the ball to James, and according to the tactical requirements, opened the space with Ray Allen and Shane Battier.
James received the ball and saw that the penalty area guardian under the Blazers basket had changed from No. 36 to No. 19, and he had no scruples in his heart.
Batum sensed James' intention and slammed it on it, but this was not enough to stop James' breakthrough. The latter's speed first dropped a beat, then increased speed twice, and went straight to the basket.
Batum's interference slowed James' rhythm and gave Aldridge a chance to help defend. When James rushed outside the reasonable collision zone, Aldridge rushed out and collided with James.
After the two made physical contact, James, relying on his career-high weight of 120 kilograms, coupled with the inertia brought by the charge all the way, knocked away the 109-kilogram tonnage Aldridge, and came to the basket with a strong core strength. Layup.
Just as James took off, Aldridge subconsciously spread his hands to interfere, but soon regretted it.
"Di... defensive foul number 12!"
James chewed his braces and made a penalty hit, two plus one.
"It's hard to imagine that LaMarcus in the inside can't stand LeBron." Kenny Smith turned his head and said with emotion: "By the way, Charles, if you meet LeBron at the peak of your life, can you hold him?"
Kenny Smith looked curiously at Barkley next to him. The latter used to be 1.98 meters tall in the league, and the strength of his physical fitness can be seen in general.
"That's really a difficult question to answer, isn't it?"
Buckley swept away his usual hippie smile and thought quite seriously.
After winning the first championship of his career, James was less than 30 years old and was at the peak of his career. In the face of such a historical super giant, Barkley could not help but be moved.
"If it is purely physical confrontation, I
Have absolute certainty, do not fall behind. "
After a long time, Barkley finally spoke.
Kenny Smith on the side nodded.
Barkley continued: "But if you want to guard against LeBron, you are talking about the day. The real superpowers can explode each other, but it's hard to limit each other."
"What about Michael? Can he guard LeBron?"
Kenny Smith said the name of the last person in Barkley's mind.
"I can tell you with confidence that even Michael can't guard against LeBron!"
Perhaps because I was worried about causing unnecessary controversy, Barkley quickly added: "The two players are not in the same position at all, and LeBron weighs more than most centers this season. The player who gives LeBron the most defensive intensity at the position, my number one recommendation is Scottie Pippen."
...
On the field, came the official timeout.
At 35:43, the Blazers were about to trail the Heat by double digits.
In the first half of the quarter, both teams have lost the Blazers without any suspense. The entire defensive end of the team was pierced by James. Of the Heat's 17 points, James scored 11 points alone.
When defending James closely, he is strong, and if he takes a step beyond the three-point line, the latter has a three-point shooting rate of over 40%, and a sudden dark arrow makes Batum extremely worried.
In addition, once James plays the pick-and-roll screen, the Blazers' current rim protection, as long as James starts, no one can stop it.
...
When the lineup returned to the bench, Coach Terry looked at Wang Zelin: "Wang, I'm taking you on the field."
Wang Zelin nodded.
Coach Terry got a response and replaced Batum, Joel Freeland, and Wicker Cleaver, and replaced Aldridge, Matthews, and Will Barton.
In view of Batum's average performance on the court, the restrictions on James are optional. Counting Lillard who stayed on the court, the Blazers can almost be said to have changed to an all-starter.
Batum: "..."
The opposing Heat bench.
"LeBron, do you need me to play?"
Wade handed the towel to James and asked.
"No need, now the team is leading, you rest for a while, and your knee..." James replied.
"Okay! That's hard work for you!"
"Where is it?"
Bosh on the side looked at this scene quite appetizingly, and always felt strange in his heart.
...
After returning from the suspension, with Wang Zelin's return, the Blazers' basket protection performance has obviously improved qualitatively, and the offensive end has also greatly increased.
The Heat's current interior combination is Lewis and James. Lewis obviously can't handle Wang Zelin. As long as he pays more attention to James' defense, it's very easy to eat under the basket.
Trail Blazers attack.
Wang Zelin took a high-level screen and completed a dunk on Lewis' head. James, who couldn't defend in time, put his arms on his hips and watched all this coldly.
That's why he didn't let the Spoelman guy on the main lineup.
Because he knows that even if Bosh returns to the court, the restrictions on Wang Zelin are minimal.
Since the defense can't prevent the opponent's inside attack, it is better to maintain the current lineup and let the game enter its own rhythm.
Attack to attack!
Before the game, James had a plan for this game.
"Ray, Sean, make more moves for a while. As long as you get out of position, I guarantee that the ball will be in your hands."
James received the ball in the backcourt and said suddenly.
"Um!"
"it is good!"
Ray Allen and Shane responded quickly.
"After the king came on the court, the changes to the Blazers were obvious. No, two points have been obtained." Yang Yi said.
"The Heat still maintain the same lineup as before. It is estimated that the difference is nearly ten points, which makes Coach Spoel very confident, but I think he may underestimate the Blazers..."
Zhang Gui's voice has not been finished yet. On the court, James easily passed Will Barton. When he came to the basket, he did not choose to play hard, but instead distributed the ball to the outside.
At the same time, Ray Allen suddenly ran back from the baseline and got back beyond the three-point line, and James' pass arrived.
"Shh!"
The gentleman thundered his sword and fell, the water splashed, and he hit a three-pointer.
"Ray!! Allen!!!"
The live DJ roared excitedly.
"Three points king! Three point king..."
This is Ray Allen's second three-pointer in this game, as if to tell the outside world that his sword is not old, and there are waves inside the arena.
"This old guy..."
Wang Zelin sent the baseline ball while thinking.
"Back to defense! Back to defense!"
James growled.
Ray Allen's consecutive three-pointers made him more firm in his decision.
The Blazers attacked, and the ball was in Wang Zelin's hands again. Wang Zelin arched back, hugged the ball with both hands, and turned towards the basket.
"Bang!"
Another hack.
But then, James quickly got down with the ball and faced Will Barton's defense in the audience. Rarely did not choose to force the ball, but instead distributed the ball to the perimeter.
At this time, Battier just ran to the position of the top arc three-point line, received a return pass from James, adjusted a little, and shot decisively.
"Crack! Shah!"
The three-pointer hit the board.
39:49.
The difference has come to 10 points.
Coach Terry on the sidelines scratched his head helplessly.
It was clear that the team had nothing wrong with these two offenses, and they both scored, but the difference was widened.
Is the three-point shot so good?
Facts have proved that the feel of the three-pointer is really good.
The time after the second quarter is like a microcosm of the previous two bows.
Wang Zelin and Aldridge frequently attacked in the interior, but they couldn't stop the widening points difference.
James means that the penalty makes the Blazers hard to guard, plus Ray Allen and Battelle feel quite good today.
In the second quarter, Ray Allen contributed three three-pointers, Shane Battier made two shots, and Lewis also hit one of three shots from the inside.
Under the leadership of James and the excellent performance of a group of shooters, the Heat experienced a wave of three-pointers in the presence of more than 20,000 spectators.
At 51:66, the Trail Blazers trailed the Heat by as much as 15 points at halftime.
How does this play?
All the Heat's bench members looked down, Wang Zelin and others looked at the bright difference on the scoreboard with blank faces.
Ask yourself, their offensive rhythm is not bad, and it can even be said to be excellent, but they can't stand the Heat's better performance.
Is this the power of the three-pointer?
Is this why the traditional insider declined in the Hills era?
Wang Zelin sat on the seat and looked at everything on the field with a cold expression.
In the original history, but two years later, the Warriors won the second O'Brien Cup in team history under the leadership of Curry. Curry won the first championship of his career.
This time, the league's pattern has undergone new changes.
Especially after the phrase "the jumper team can't win the championship" was broken, the NBA officially kicked off the era of small balls.
Its leader, Curry, or Ku Ritian, shattered the league's previous series of laws with a single three-pointer against the sky.
Three-point shooting has become an increasingly important part of the training program for all teams in the league.
Even Simavic said in an interview, "I hate three-pointers. In my opinion, this is not a basketball game at all. Three-pointers are like cheating. Generally, two points are shot..."
But everyone knows that under the leadership of Simavic, the Spurs have become one of the best three-point shooting teams in the league.
The rise of the three-pointer seems to be the trend of the times~ The Heat's three-pointer rain just made Wang Zelin ponder.
Do not!
I do not believe!
The idea of the inevitable rise of the three-pointer had just arisen in his mind, but Wang Zelin had another thought.
If I only need to shoot three-pointers in the future, what are my strengths and inside skills?
Wang Zelin, who was reborn with the system, still insisted on honing his interior skills after knowing that the era of small **** would follow, but did not practice 3-pointers to the death, precisely because of a resistance in his heart.
He wants to try to fight the next small ball era, or...he wants to reverse the next small ball era.
He didn't believe it anymore, he and the system couldn't handle the era of a mere community.
"Coach, I want to keep playing!"
Coach Terry was drawing together with David Vanderpool, discussing what tactics to play in the second half and how to rotate personnel when Wang Zelin suddenly stood up.
"Wang, but your physical strength..."
"I have no problem with my physical strength. I really don't believe it. They can always feel so good."
Wang Zelin's words revealed an unquestionable feeling.
"Yes, the closer you get to the basket, the higher your hit rate." Coach Terry muttered to himself.
The Heat's bench.
The team's tactical board is ready to hold the No. 6 player in his hand, surrounded by teammates and assistants.
Coach Spoel was used to this for a long time, and consciously found a space in the air, squeezed to the side and watched James gesture and explain the tactics.
"In the second half, Dwyane and I made more breakthroughs to the basket. Chris, Ray, and Sean, you opened up the space. Whether it's me or Dwyane, as long as there is a chance, we will pass the ball to you, whoever has the opportunity. Don't hesitate, shoot decisively, and the remaining two will rush for rebounds together!"
"Chris, when you top Wang Zelin on the inside, you can try to make his fouls, and even if you can't prevent him, disgust him!"
"..."
James' tactics are very simple, just two words - sudden points.
For the Heat with James and Wade, this is precisely the tactical play that is most suitable for them, driving the third line by two points.
The rest of the team has no problem with that. After the championship season, the Heat's tacit understanding and so on have reached a new height.
...
At the beginning of the third quarter, Wade received the ball in the backcourt and pushed it to the frontcourt.
Wade, who hasn't played for nearly a quarter, wants to try to find a touch and let his teammates pull away.
Lillard's expression was solemn, and he took one step against Wade inside the three-point line.
Wade is not a defender who is good at shooting, so it shouldn't be a big problem to take a little step... it!
When Wade saw that No. 0 on the opposite side had put him in such a large space, he, who was planning to break through, suddenly shot a three-pointer from the outside.
I really didn't think I was the No. 9 of the Celtics, and I didn't dare to vote when there was a big open spot.
With no trace, Wade raised the ball ~ take off ~ shakes his wrists.
"What?"
This scene left many viewers, including Barkley, stunned.
You must know that Wade's three-point shooting rate, except for the only four seasons, was only in the early 20s, and even only 17.1% every year.
Wade is shooting 25.8 percent from 3-point range this season, averaging 0.2 attempts per game.
Threat equals nothing.
But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ A player of Wade's level really can't let out big open spots at will.
After Wade made a three-pointer, the basket was instantly crowded together. Wang Zelin grabbed his position and was ready to rush to the rebound. Even Lillard turned his head and rushed to the basket at the first time.
The whole process only took a few seconds, the basketball was getting closer and closer to the basket, just as everyone was about to take off...
"Shh!"
Wade made his first three-pointer of the game.
"OMG! Dwayne is in, he's in!"
The live DJ is like Christmas, get up when you're excited.
"When will Wade score three points?"
Wang Zelin looked at the No. 3 player at the top arc outside the three-point line in disbelief.
What an international joke?
God does not help me ~ help Ercao!
fuck!
