The Basketball Court Swordsman

Spoelstra was fairly satisfied with the team's performance in the first half, although he was only one point ahead of the Pacers. But at least this proves that the pace of the game is under the control of the Heat.

Before the start of the third quarter, Spoelstra was interviewed from the bench. Since Adam Xiaohua came to power, the number of coaches interviewed on the sidelines has become very large. In the past, there was basically only one midfield interview and one post-match interview. And now, as long as the reporter wants, they can interview the head coach before the start of each quarter.

There is no doubt that this will make this alliance more commercial and more exposed. Of course, it also greatly increases the risk of being slapped in the face after saying the wrong thing.

"We performed well. After all, we were playing away. But in the first half, we didn't let the Pacers get any advantage. In the second half, we will make persistent efforts and strive to continue to control the game."

Before the start of the third quarter, Filipino coach Spoelstra spoke to reporters. Of course, now the Heat coach doesn’t know how wrong he is...

"Coach Henson has changed. He replaced Leonard with Ray Allen. There is no doubt that Ray Allen can make the Pacers' three-pointer more powerful. But again, Leonard Ray Allen’s defensive ability is unmatched. Coach Henson’s purpose is very clear. He wants to strengthen his offense!"

Mike Brin deserves to be a veteran commentator, and he can see Henson's purpose at a glance. Of course, Spoelstra could also see Henson's purpose. It's just that he can't figure it out, why did Henson suddenly step up his offense?

The first offense in the third quarter of the game, because Leonard went off the field, so the person who faced James became George. George held the ball in person and called for a screen breakthrough.

But his real purpose is not to attack himself, but to attract defense.

The Heat focused on Ray Allen and George, but they didn't know that George passed the ball to West who stayed high after the screen. Henson didn't say that to replace Ray Allen on the field, Ray Allen must take the shot.

West made a shot from a step from the three-point line, and Battier, who replaced Haslem, couldn't make it back. Even if he hurried back, Battier was at a disadvantage in height.

A simple but very effective tactic that allowed the Pacers to get the first point in the second half of the game. At the same time, it surpassed the Heat by one point.

However, neither Spoelstra nor the Heat paid attention to this. After all, in the first half of the game, the two sides have always been like this. Spoelstra believes that the game is still under his control!

In the next round, Wade was going to find Ray Allen to fight. But Paul changed positions with Ray Allen, Ray Allen went to block Chalmers, who was less threatening, and Paul personally confronted Wade.

Although Paul is not dominant in height, Paul's core strength is indeed terrifying. It seems that this is a misplacement, but in the physical confrontation, Wade was stunned that he did not take the slightest advantage.

In the end, Wade's layup missed under Paul's interference, and the Heat failed to keep the score!

Although the lineup that Henson sent in the third quarter is mainly offensive, it does not mean that the Pacers' defense will collapse.

When it comes to the Pacers, even fools can tell that they are a team that relies on strong defense and quick counterattacks to win. This is the trait of the Pacers and the style that Henson brings to this team. So even if Henson now requires the team to attack with full force, this trait will not disappear.

Wade shook his head annoyedly, then quickly retreated. As soon as Ray Allen approached, Wade posted it. He believed that Henson Perry Allen didn't come up to cover people's ears. If it were not for three-point firepower, there would be no need to send Ray Allen!

Seeing Paul dribble past halftime, Wade immediately pushed to Ray Allen, leaving no room for him to connect the ball. Paul glanced at Ray Allen, but dropped the ball into the penalty area. It's David West, he wants to play Shane Shane!

In the third quarter, Spoelstra let Battier replace the same old Haslem as soon as he came up. However, this just gave Henson the opportunity to play inside. As Spoelstra put on more and more substitutes, there are more and more points for Henson to attack.

Haslem's performance in the Eastern Conference finals surprised Henson. The Heat captain, who was almost only paddling in the regular season, used his toughness and tenacity to perform well in the Eastern Conference finals. Especially on the defensive end, Haslem did not have a game that made West comfortable.

However, at this time, the defender of West suddenly changed from Haslem to Battier, and the pressure on the "17-foot assassin" was not so great. Although Battier has often played the fourth position since joining the Heat, he does not have the ability to confront the fourth position.

And Ray Allen, Paul, George and Horford pulled the rest of the Heat away, and West got a chance to play Shane Shane in the low post!

West leaned back roughly, unceremoniously! In this series, Battier and Westburn are angry. Wester broke a elbow of Battier's nose, and Henson still remembers it. Of course, Shane himself is not clean, Horford is especially worried about his **** every time he encounters Shane.

But this time, no matter how hard-spirited Battier is, there is no way to resist the gap in strength between the two sides. West pushed Battier into the penalty area. Battier only felt his chest was stuffy, but he had nowhere to complain. Finally, at a distance very close to the basket, West turned around to hook and the basketball hollowed into the net. It was not too easy.

After scoring the goal, West opened his arms with an expression of "Why is there no pressure at all?" Battier rubbed his aching chest, then reluctantly picked up the basketball. The Heat encountered such an embarrassment last season, but after a year, Battier cannot suddenly become stronger. On the contrary, as the age increases, Battier's confrontation ability has declined.

4 to 0, this time, Spoelstra had to draw attention. He asked Joe Anthony to go to the technical table to prepare, and he couldn't let Battier stay on the court and couldn't let the rotation be broken.

Fortunately, LeBron James forced George to make a layup, which stopped the heat for the Heat. But it was not enough. After James scored, Horford immediately made a quick baseline. In the blink of an eye, the Pacers attacked, and even the on-site camera failed to keep up with the speed of this attack. The ball has been passed by Paul through halftime, but the camera lens is still facing James.

Henson was very pleased to see the players have such an offensive desire, they really took their words in their hearts.

After receiving a quick shot from Paul, George went straight to the basket, and both Wade and James rushed towards George. After all, these two guys are masters of chasing after themselves.

However, halfway through, Wade suddenly felt cold! He stopped suddenly, and then ran towards the outside line! But it was too late. George broke through and scored and Ray Allen got his first chance in the third quarter! He didn't forget to glance at Wade when he caught the ball, and then with a slightly raised corner of his mouth. Ray Allen, one of the league's greatest shooters, took off, pressed his wrists, moved his fingers, shot...

By the time Wade was sealed, the basketball was halfway through. Spoelstra stared at the basketball nervously, but after all, he had no power to change the trajectory of the basketball with his eyes.

"brush!"

Henson closed his eyes, and the tumbling sound of the Nets was extremely pleasant to him. With a 5-point advantage, the team is starting to gain momentum!

Taking a look at Spoelstra, Henson found that he still didn't mean to stop the game. Perhaps it was James' forced layup just now that gave Spoelstra confidence, no, Spoelstra has always been confident in this game. Just look at what he said in the third quarter.

But today, Filipinos are undoubtedly overconfident! At this time in the last game, Horford had diarrhea and went to the toilet, while "Birdman" Anderson was somewhat unable to control his emotions. Therefore, the Heat seized the opportunity to score a lot of points inside.

But today...

"LeBron chose to break through George again. Horford was already waiting inside! We don't know if this is a defensive trap for Coach Henson. Maybe from the beginning, George deliberately guided LeBron to break inside!" Mike Brin With a vicious vision, he can always see through the careful thoughts of these coaches.

James headed into Horford, but Horford's defense has always been clean, which is very different from Anderson.

James stopped the ball in the penalty area, and as long as he stopped the ball, he would directly fall into a double-teamed state. In the panic and strong confrontation, James was unstable and fell to the bottom line.

At the last moment, the Heat smashed Horford with a basketball on No. 6, intending to keep the ball after the ball pops out.

As everyone knows, Horford reflexively dodged, and the basketball hit Bosh's leg. Bosh jumped to save the ball, but he stabbed the ball with his fingertips.

People in the penalty area turned their backs on their backs, but there was no goal. James' cleverness didn't come in handy, and the Heat's offense ended in a mistake!

Taking advantage of this dead ball opportunity, Spoelstra replaced Joe Anthony, hoping that he could withstand Henson's inside attack. Henson smiled, then winked at Paul.

Joe Anthony is nothing more than that!

5 points difference, which has made Spoelstra a little nervous. But seeing the Pacers forced to fall into position this time to attack, he instantly felt relieved. The Indiana Pacers have never been a team that wins on offense. As long as they can defend the ball and seize the opportunity on the offensive end, the points difference will be reduced again!

Joe Anthony was waiting, he thought that West would still sit inside and play hard. But this time, West didn't take a back position, but moved up beyond the three-point line!

Joe Anthony was clearly prepared for a tough battle, but unexpectedly the situation was unexpected. He had to follow, and it turned out that West had gone to cover Paul.

Every time Joe Anthony reacted, Paul rushed out from behind West! Paul's speed is very fast, but he doesn't win by speed most of the time, so many people ignore this.

Joe Anthony rushed to mend his defense, intending to stop Paul. Paul, on the other hand, got up early, picked it lightly in the air, and took the initiative to lean on Joe Anthony.

In terms of tricks and routines, Joe Anthony is a younger brother in front of Paul!

"Toot toot!" The referee's hastily whistle came!

Paul fell, curled up, and rolled on the floor, and the Spalding basketball slipped into the net with Paul's soft wrist and touch!

"Playing three-pointers, Chris Paul's resolute breakthrough gave him a chance to play three-pointers! As soon as the third quarter game came up, the Pacers' offensive was very fierce! If an additional penalty hits, the Pacers will Played a wave of 8-2 offensive." Mike Brin touched his chin after speaking. He always felt something was wrong. The Pacers did not play like this in the first half of the game. In the third quarter, how should I say, they seem to have become more...more aggressive.

Henson was still sitting on the bench, not showing excitement. Because the Chinese coach is very clear that this is just a warm-up for the Pacers' offensive frenzy in the third quarter. The real offensive is yet to come.
