The Basketball Court Swordsman

The third quarter played for 5 minutes, the point difference has been stabilized at 8 points has not been moved for a long time. It's not that the two sides didn't score, but once the Heat approached the score, the Pacers were always able to reopen the difference.

Why did Henson bring up this lineup early instead of waiting for Spoelstra to replace the bench? Just to let them find the offense first. By the time Spoelstra takes the bench, the Pacers' lineup can be fully fired.

In these 5 minutes, the Heat played very hard in the starting five. James and Wade can't get a chance on the outside, only to carry a strong confrontation to kill inside. However, this is exactly what Henson hopes to see. The more he wants to score with a breakthrough, the more he consumes his energy. The more physically exhausted the Big Three, the sooner Spoelstra will be replaced in the third quarter.

After all, the Filipino coach can't make a joke about the life-and-death fourth quarter!

So, in the fifth minute of the third quarter, Spoelstra finally couldn't sit still. He replaced Wade and Bosh in one go, leaving only one James on the court. And replaced by Mike Miller and Shane Shane.

At this point, the Heat’s lineup has become Chalmers, Miller, Battier, James and Joe Anthony. In the last game, due to the Heat’s three-point reserve burst, James played very well in this lineup. Comfortable.

Seeing Spoelstra put in such a lineup, Henson finally got up from the bench! The key plan to win this game is officially implemented!

"In the last game, the Heat's play outside the three-point line in the third quarter can be said to be the main reason for their win. Of course, you say it is because Al Horford went to the bathroom halfway, I have no problem. ."

The two commentators Mike Brin and Kevin Harlan were still joking and joking on the commentary stage. They didn't know that there were already crises on the court underneath.

In the first offense after the Heat came back from a substitution, they tried a three-pointer. No matter how great James is, he is also a living person. It is impossible to kill inside with an explosive bag every time. So this time, James personally acted as a point guard, sending the ball to Mike Miller with a wide-sighted pass.

Mike Miller did not hesitate after receiving the ball from the right bottom corner and shot directly! However, Ray Allen's defense was also timely. Although Ray Allen is not a defensive gate, it is not a colander. It still interferes with some Mike Miller's shots.

In the last game, the Heat made almost all the **** with such slight interference. Under an incredible three-point rain, the Pacers were indeed a little slow. Today, however, the Heat's magical three-pointer feel no longer. Mike Miller's first shot was short and hit the side of the basket!

Seeing this, Henson clenched his fists, and the Pacers' attack was coming!

Horford took off the rebound and launched the offense with a long pass from the backcourt! James clung to George as soon as Miller hit the iron, for fear that he would strike back again! But this time, it was not George who pushed back, but Paul!

James put all his attention on George, so that when Paul broke into the inside line basket, James did not have time to change defense! Without Wade and Bosh, the Heat will not only affect the offense, but also the defense.

Don't forget, the Heat are a team that relies heavily on the Big Three! This is exactly what Henson caught!

10 points, the biggest difference in the game appeared. James, who is a father and a mother, is out of breath, and Henson's players are clearly at ease.

In the subsequent attack, the Heat still chose to fire on the outside. It's just that the shooter changed from Mike Miller to Shane.

Many people may not believe that Battier, as a tactically space-based fourth position, has only made 29.4% of three-pointers in the playoffs this season, less than 30%. ! There is no doubt that this is an unqualified three-pointer. In Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals yesterday, Battier hit his first three-pointer in the series!

In other words, Battier is only accurate in "impressions". But in fact, this season, the old Shaun's three-point shooting rate has become extremely unstable.

Battier's shot felt unnatural as soon as he shot. This guy's leg strength has been unable to support his stable output beyond the three-point line. Don't think that shooting is just a matter of hands. In fact, the shape and weakness of shooting movements are mostly related to the lack of lower limb strength.

Unsurprisingly, Battier's arc was short and flat, and it hit the front of the basket abruptly.

James leaped hard, ready to scramble for offensive rebounds. But under Horford's superb card position, James' efforts became useless. More deadly, James let go of George because of his offensive rebounds!

As a result, people saw another long pass across the court. The Pacers' fast break is simple and rude, but it is always effective.

As a result, Horford's passing ability can be regarded as the top presence among centers. Don't forget, Henson even used this guy as an organization center!

Secondly, George's athletic ability and height and arm length are beyond the reach of most outside players. Many of the **** he can receive, but the defensive players can't. For example, like Battier is Mike Miller who is famous in the Memphis Grizzlies.

George leaped up and straightened his long arms to fish the basketball into his arms. After landing, he could speed up and continue to break through! The old Miller obviously couldn't contain George's advancement. After all, Miller was 10 years older than George. George was a kid when he entered the league and played. It would be unfair to have George and Miller face up.

But this is the case with competitive sports.

Take two steps and lick the basket lightly. George lightly scored on Mike Miller's head, widening the point difference to 12 points. Spoelstra's second team can't contain the Pacers' offense at all, and the most terrible thing is that in a few minutes, Spoelstra must also replace James!

Otherwise, the Heat won't be able to play in the fourth quarter.

Henson liked to watch his opponent struggle in a dilemma. Since knowing that the media gave him the nickname "Torture King", he really enjoyed the pleasure of torturing his opponent.

12 points difference, the game has gradually got out of control, James now just wants to save physical effort to play, he must take the responsibility, must use the most tragic way to attack the basket.

Of course, James also succeeded. After all, he is one of the greatest athletes on the planet. George's slightly thin body still couldn't bear James' impact.

Going against George, hitting the inside, leaning on Horford, and then forced a layup...Every time James scores, it looks extremely laborious, which is in stark contrast to the understatement of the Pacers.

The most terrible thing is that after James scored several times his physical strength, the Heat still trailed by double digits! In terms of morale, this is undoubtedly a huge blow!

After the goal, James immediately greeted his teammates to defend firmly, and the Heat players did not work hard. As a center, Joe Anthony rushed back to the hoop to prevent the Pacers from attacking the rim again.

But Joe Anthony seems to have forgotten that his matchup is not an outside player of the Pacers!

Paul quickly pushed over to the midfield line, then raised his arm and threw the ball to the right corner! The Heat will follow the basketball to move their eyes, only to find that Horford is unmarked at this time!

Joe Anthony, who was conscientiously guarding the penalty area, did something bad. He tried to protect the basket, but he forgot that his matchup is also a good long-range shooter!

Joe Anthony is not the kind of center with a lot of mobility. Although he tried to rush out, it didn't help. Before this guy pounced on Horford, Horford had already completed the shot.

And just as Henson told his players at halftime, Horford has no mercy!

"Three points again! Haha, the situation in the last game seems to be reversed. The Heat was beaten by the Pacers in the third quarter! Coach Spoelstra was helpless. He had done it before the start of the second half. Said that the Heat have controlled the situation. But in fact, they have not controlled anything!"

This three-pointer makes James's effortless scoring meaningless. The 13-point difference was firmly on Spoelstra's head, so the Filipino coach had to call a timeout again.

Henson applauded vigorously and praised the performance of his players. In the third quarter, everyone did not let him down!

After this, Spoelstra replaced James, but brought Wade up again. He knew very well that if he played on the bench, the Heat would lose miserably in the third quarter! Henson moved his little brain on the rotation!

After Wade came back, he finally hit a three-pointer to stop the bleeding, but the "unfavorable" George immediately shot back, destroying Wade's performance, allowing the Pacers to play a wave of 6-0 again, and the Heat fell behind by 16 points. . At the last minute of the third quarter, James returned. He used two powerful shocks to open the Pacers' defense and scored 4 points for the Heat. But in the end, the 16-point difference remained until the end of the third quarter.

This is the first time the Pacers led so much into the fourth quarter of the series until now!

"The Heat shot only 21% in the third quarter! It can almost be said that this is the worst quarter of the Heat's performance since the Big Three got together!" During the break, looking at the Heat's data, Mike Brin All feel incredible. The entire third quarter was a one-sided slaughter!

However, the fact that the Heat are so far behind has nothing to do with the Big Three. After all, Henson seized the opportunity of the opponent to come on the bench and created this situation.

16 points difference, in theory, the Heat will certainly have a chance to pull back. But Henson, obviously will not let this theory be successfully implemented! Next, Henson will stop the crazy offense and let the team focus on the defensive end.

It's time to show Spoelstra what a real "control the game" is!
