One quarter of the game, a 16-point difference. 86.7% shooting rate, assist ratio 10 to 3. Among the Mavericks' 10 assists, 5 came from Yiyang.

LeBron James has never seen a player like this, a player who can handle the team's offense flawlessly. What does an 86.7% shooting rate mean? This means that the Mavericks take open shots almost every time.

No hard shots, no turnovers. The Mavericks are like a precision instrument, and Yiyang, as the center of this instrument, maximizes the role of every part!

"Man-to-man defense! Go back to man-to-man defense! Don't let your opponent get any easy opportunities to catch the ball. We still have time, and we still have the opportunity to change everything!" Spoelstra held up The tactical board squatted in front of the players and shouted, but James felt like he couldn't hear a word.

The Mavericks completely blinded him and this omnipotent basketball emperor. Yiyang didn't score in the first quarter of today's game, but the Heat lost the worst!

The Heat's 54% shooting percentage in the first quarter was not low, but they were still lagging behind, and by a big margin!

Is it possible that Yiyang's passing really has the magical effect of increasing people's hit rate? No, this is not a game. No one in this world has that ability!

In fact, the Mavericks players felt hot today, which is also the reason why they were able to hit a high shooting percentage. Yiyang's exquisite organization coupled with the fiery touch of the players created this incredible miracle.

"Look for more opportunities outside the three-point line. We need to get the score back as soon as possible! LeBron, you control the ball and use breakthroughs to attract defenses!" As soon as Spoelstra finished shouting, the electronic buzzer sounded. . James nodded, regaining his composure.

Even if the Mavericks performed magically in the first quarter, they should have returned to normal in the second quarter! As long as the Heat can survive this period, everything will be fine!

Since Bosh got the ball in the opening game today, the Mavericks took the lead at the beginning of the second quarter.

"Here we come! Remember, in man-to-man defense, you have to focus on your own goal!" Seeing Yiyang, who was back on the field, slowly controlling the ball, James shouted to stabilize his morale.

As soon as Yiyang stepped across the midfield line, he noticed a change in the Heat's defensive strategy.

In the first quarter of the game, the Heat's defense will lean more on themselves. James, Lewis, Bosh and others are all ready to shrink to the basket to defend themselves.

But now, they switch to man-to-man defense. Each player keeps an eye on his opponent and tries not to give them a chance to catch the ball.

However, can man-to-man tracking really be used? Yiyang smiled and began to direct the attack!

Dirk still came out to cover Yiyang, but Yiyang was not polite and took advantage of the cover to break through directly. When he reached the mid-range position, Yiyang suddenly stopped and jumped!

Then what? The magical pass didn't happen again because Yiyang really shot the ball this time. Although the rib injury forced Yiyang to avoid physical combat in the penalty area, it did not affect his shooting feeling.

From the start, the Heat's defense failed. The best way to break man-to-man defense is to set screens and keep running. Yiyang only used the first step to defeat the Heat's defense.

Yiyang is not Kidd and Rondo. With his explosive passing ability, Yiyang also has precise shooting that these two guys do not have.

If you let him go, expect to be thrown to death!

It wasn't until the second quarter that Yiyang scored for the first time today. But this did not affect him in helping the Mavericks to establish an advantage. He was hit hard as soon as he came on the court. The Heat's morale was almost exhausted by Yiyang.

After the goal, Yiyang began to retreat. But he saw that James had already run near the midline, and the Heat wanted to make a quick attack. It seems that these guys are getting impatient.

Yiyang's top-notch prediction ability allowed him to immediately counterattack.

Sure enough, Bosh passed the ball!

The running James was about to catch the ball when a long arm stretched out from his side and poked the basketball away!

Yiyang dodged past, James gritted his teeth, he should have expected it was him!

As soon as he intercepted the basketball, Yiyang casually threw the ball into the air. Gobert, who had no time to retreat, stood in an excellent position and made another alley-oop. Gobert succeeded in taking the cake. The already desperate Heat lost four points at the beginning of the second quarter!

Spoelstra put down his tactical board, desperate. In front of that No. 1, any tactics are in vain!

When a player's passing can be as accurate as a missile, and he can also form a tacit understanding with his teammates, then no matter how good your defense is, it will be impossible to prevent him!

After nearly 4 minutes in the second quarter, Gobert hit a layup and a jump shot, allowing the Mavericks to turn the score into 55-30. Not long after the start of the second quarter, the point difference had already exceeded the 20 mark. The Mavericks made all of their first six shots in this quarter, and made 19 of their first 21 shots in the game, with a shooting percentage of over 90%, which is staggering.

The shouting had long since stopped at the American Airlines Center, and even Mike Breen couldn't stand it anymore. This is not a duel at all, but a naked massacre!

After that, the magical touch of the Mavericks players finally cooled down, and their shooting percentage dropped slightly. The Heat found a sense on the outside. James' breakthrough goal allowed Lewis to hit two consecutive three-pointers in 32 seconds. Ray Allen and Battier, who came off the bench, also hit a three-pointer each. This section also continued. At 2 minutes and 41 seconds, the Heat chased the score to 48 to 62. The 14-point difference was still huge, but it looked more promising than more than 20 points.

However, the inside line composed of Battier and Haslem obviously does not have a strong ability to protect the frame. Yiyang, who had been "paddling" on the outside until now, finally started to break through, but not to break through and score, but to break through and score while protecting himself.

His wonderful passes allowed the Mavericks to succeed in three consecutive attacks, bringing the Heat back to a situation that had finally come back. 71 to 50 in the first half, the Mavericks made 7 of 10 three-pointers in the entire half, with a shooting percentage of 70%! The Heat's free throw shooting percentage in the first half was only 71%.

"12 assists, 12 assists in half the game. Before him, only 'Magic' Johnson could do this! Who can stop him? This guy has ruined the fun of the game! "The suspense was killed from the beginning of the first quarter. Kevin Harlan was right, Yiyang has ruined the enjoyment of the game.

"The Dallas Mavericks can't win even if the Bulls at their peak come!" And Mike Breen's words highlighted the terror of the Mavericks today.

Although the Mavericks played very well in the first half, Spoelstra knew that they could not maintain this feeling throughout the game. The Filipinos regained their composure and made many adjustments during the halftime period.

This is the Heat's first home game in this year's Finals, and they are not willing to let it go. So in the second half of the game, the counterattack began.

Spoelstra's adjustment is very simple, unlimited defense changes! Since Yiyang is not attacking today, there is no player with outstanding singles scoring ability in the Mavericks. To deal with such a team, unlimited defense changes are the best way!

His strategy worked well. Wade scored 3 points with a free throw at the beginning of the third quarter. Subsequently, the Mavericks' pick-and-roll could not break the Heat's defense.

James and Wade led the team to a 12-4 spurt, chasing the score to 62-75! The Mavericks only made one shot in the first 4 minutes and 25 seconds of this quarter. Under the Heat's defense, they performed completely opposite to the first half and lost the feel of the first half.

The success at the beginning of the third quarter greatly increased James' confidence. The Heat continued to counterattack. The Big Three seemed to have recovered, and they played vigorously on both offense and defense! With 1 minute and 59 seconds left in this quarter, Norris Cole made a backhand layup, fouled Gobert, and made an extra free throw. This allowed the Heat to trail only 74 to 81, and the point difference narrowed to single digits!

Carlisle had to stop the game, knowing that the team's magical touch had disappeared. Now, what the Mavericks need to do is not to regain their touch, but to defend! Contain the Heat's offense first, and then consider the offense separately.

So for the rest of the quarter, the Mavericks' "seven-minute defense" reappeared. The Heat only scored 1 point on James' free throw, and the Mavericks ended the third quarter with a double-digit lead of 86-75.

Although he still held a 10-point lead, the Heat's unlimited defensive changes still left Carlisle with lingering fears. If they continue to play positional warfare, the Mavericks will only fall into the crisis of unlimited defense changes.

So, Carlisle boldly asked Iguodala to play the fourth position, Carter to play the small forward, and Nick Young to play the shooting guard! A very offensive and athletic lineup emerged, and Carlisle made a big move.

"Also, in the last quarter of the game, speed me up! Use your passing to stabilize the fast-paced offense, and immediately counterattack after grabbing the rebound! There is no need to waste time with them, I want you to end the game!"

After Carlisle finished drawing the tactics, everyone looked at him in surprise.

Who said this guy is old-fashioned? He is crazy!

"This is really a crazy battle, Mike. When we all thought the Mavericks were about to take away the game, the Miami Heat caught up! Although they are still more than ten points behind the Mavericks, 11 points is not irreversible. The gap. Fortunately, the Mavericks' shooting rate returned to normal in the second half, otherwise I would have been scared to death by them!" Kevin Harlan looked at the data of this game. In the first half, the Mavericks' shooting rate was 75%. The three-point shooting percentage is 70%. Such data cannot be described with the word "terrible".

But in the third quarter, their overall shooting rate dropped to 31%, and they only made 1 of 6 three-pointers. Fortunately, the Mavericks' shooting rate returned to "normal" in the third quarter, otherwise this game would have entered garbage time.

Mike Breen also looked at the statistics of this game so far, but his expression was still solemn. In this data that seems to have become "normal", there is one thing that still catches the eye.

"Kevin, what personal records do you think are the hardest to break in the history of the NBA Finals?" Mike Breen suddenly asked a question, which made Kevin Harlan stunned.

"Um...Elgin Baylor scored 61 points in a single game in the Finals?" Kevin Harlan didn't think much and was the first to say Elgin Baylor's name.

This record was set by Baylor on behalf of the Los Angeles Lakers in the Finals against the Boston Celtics on April 14, 1962. In that battle, Kim Baylor was like a god, scoring easily without any difficulty. However, according to the defensive intensity of modern basketball, this record is almost impossible to break. but. Mike Breen asked him, "Isn't it the most difficult record to break?"

"What else?" Mike continued to ask.

"Also...and 'Lord of the Rings' Bill Russell's 40 rebounds in a single game in the Finals?"

"Please, Kevin, can you tell me some more modern records!" Mike Breen looked at Harlan speechlessly. Baylor's record was set in 1962, and Bill Russell's record was set in 1960. Created in the year!

"Slightly more modern? Dwight Howard's 9 blocks in a single game in the 2009 Finals? Wade's 21 free throws in the 2006 Finals? Oh, yes, and the 1984 Finals, Magic Johnson 21 assists in a single game!"

"Yeah." Mike Brin finally nodded with satisfaction. "Magic's 21 assists in a single game in the Finals is indeed one of the most difficult records to break in the history of the NBA Finals..."

"What do you want to say? Mike."

"Look at the data in your hand. This record, which is the most difficult to break, is likely to cease to exist soon."

After listening to what Mike Breen said, Kevin Harlan's first reaction was Yiyang's data!

Sure enough, after three quarters. But the number in Yiyang's assist column has reached 16...
