The rest is just noise

Celtics offensive possession.

Lu Wuxia dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Gasol ran to the top of the arc to catch the ball. Then, Ginobili from outside the left three-point line rushed over and made a hand-to-hand screen with Gasol to receive the pass. Stay

Duncan at the top of the arc then set a second screen for Kirilenko. Ginobili, who broke through to the basket with the ball, split the Heat's defense and passed the ball out to the bottom right side.

The path beyond the corner three-point line is flawless.

This set of detailed and complicated tactics that test the patience of both offense and defense is the essence of T.S.O.M's offense.

Keep your pace and seek the best opportunities.

This is the core of the strategy.

Lu Wuxia, who was in the bottom corner, could already take a shot because the defender was one meter away from him. However, he just used his shooting fake to deceive Ray Allen, who was assisting him in defending. Then he dribbled the ball and broke through to the basket to attract Duncan's help.

Just in case he feeds Li another piece of cake.

4 to 3

Later, the personal limitations of white chocolate also emerged.

Louis stood on the sidelines and clearly instructed the players to resolutely change defense when encountering a pick-and-roll.

The biggest difference between White Chocolate and Arenas is the lack of hard solution ability in one-on-one situations.

Wang Zhizhi came up for a pick-and-roll, and Gasol switched defense.

After losing weight, Gasol's steps are quite fast, and it is difficult for White Chocolate to get rid of him in one step. If he is not dealt with as soon as possible, it will hinder the team's offense.

Therefore, White Chocolate can only pass the ball to Stephen Jackson.

Wu Shengzheng is facing off against Ginobili. Ginobili cannot be regarded as a defensive expert, but like Wu Xia, he is a player who can rely on his golf intelligence to improve his defensive performance.

The Celtics had studied the characteristics of Wu Sheng well before the game.

As a shooting guard, Wu Sheng is tall, has a high release point, and is difficult to interfere with his shooting. However, with Arenas unable to play and White Chocolate lacking aggressiveness, the Heat need not only Wu Sheng's shooting, but also breakthroughs.

However, the Celtics had done a lot of research on Wu Sheng's technical characteristics before the game.

Wu Sheng's shooting is impeccable, and he can be regarded as the league's top swingman. However, his first step of breakthrough lacks explosiveness, his dribbling is too high in rhythm, and he easily loses the ball when encountering high-level defenders.

Ginobili is certainly not a high-level defensive player, but he is a smart and average defensive player.

What he fears most is the kind of opponent who relies on explosive power to get past the defense in one step without any morals.

Even if it's hard to defend against a Martial Saint, you can still limit it.

After a while, Wu Sheng made a mistake in passing the ball with the help of Kirilenko, and the ball was intercepted by Lu Wuxia on the other side.

Something went wrong in the Heat's game.

Jason Williams' lack of one-on-one hard solutions was fully exposed under the Celtics' unlimited switching defense.

Even if the Heat continue to play pick-and-roll offenses, with the Celtics' starting five players able to switch defenses, if they cannot find someone who can independently challenge the opponent to complete the offense, then the game will be dead.

The problem is that the Heat have no shortage of good one-on-one players.

Duncan, Ray Allen, and Wu Sheng can all challenge each other.

Even Wang Zhizhi can fight in a duel.

White chocolate seemed to have been tricked and couldn't find its direction at all.

The Heat were beaten 11 to 5 in the opening game.

Billy Donovan called a timeout in time and made a decisive change of formation, asking Ronnie Price (R) to replace White Chocolate, then Liu Yuqing to replace Wu Sheng, and put the tactical arrow on Duncan.

"Let Tim lead us forward!"

The Heat put their offensive focus on Duncan, but the Celtics seemed to have predicted this in advance. Louis replaced David Lee, let Pau Gasol return to the fourth position, and then mentioned Zaza Pa

Chulia came on to play the fifth position.

On the defensive end, Gasol continued to face Wang Zhizhi, while Pachulia faced Duncan.

In terms of strength, Pachulia doesn't have the ability to compete with Duncan, but a bastard like him who does whatever it takes to compete can at least wear down Duncan.

Louis did not expect to make any achievements on the defensive end from the beginning of the series. The decisive point in their duel with the Heat was offense.

Donovan seemed to have gone astray, trying to break the Celtics' defense.

To break down the Celtics' defense, it's really a good idea to surround Duncan with one star and four shots.

However, all fans who are familiar with the Heat know that if they let Duncan be the main attacker from the first quarter, it will definitely not be a good thing for them.

Duncan, who began to gain the ball, used various tricks to attack Pachulia's defense.

Under Pachulia's defense, his offensive success rate was as high as 70-80%. However, the real role of the Georgian was not to limit his offensive success rate, but to tire him.

Pachulia will make Duncan feel tired and difficult with little moves and cross-border confrontations that fans cannot imagine.

At the same time, when the Heat put their offensive focus on Duncan, the Celtics used Lu Wuxia as a breaking point and began to blossom.

This is a situation the Heat never imagined.

They regard flawless defense as a top priority and have done a lot of research and preparation on this point before the series begins.

Including who will defend, who will help defend, setting traps according to hot zones, and when he breaks through to which position with the ball, he should step forward to double-team... all of these are all included.

Why? Because the Heat are convinced that this young player who averaged a terrifying 44+14+10 per game in the semifinals will continue to perform brilliantly.

However, as soon as the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals started, the "Kingkiller" who crushed the Cavaliers in the semifinals turned into a jester and clown who bewitched the king.

This is like a textbook censorship movie.

The best parts are all on the cover.

Once you double-click to open it, all you get is disappointment.

Lu Wuxia's tireless movement attracted the attention of at least 2-3 people from the Heat team wherever he went.

To Heat players, he is the bright moon in the sky.

Paying too much attention to him will ignore the flowers at your feet.

Therefore, even though Duncan scored 14 points in a single quarter and defeated Pachulia, the Celtics still ended the first quarter with a score of 35-24.

Lu Wuxia had 4 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in a single quarter.

"His role cannot be reflected in the data."

"As a point guard, his current ball possession rate is appallingly low."

"As the absolute core of the Celtics, his frequency of running without the ball - if we can have accurate statistics - is definitely the highest in the game!"

Tom Heinsohn said excitedly: "Mark my words, Wish is Larry, Hondo, Sam (Jones), Jojo (White), and Yin Seiya all rolled into one! Tonight, he showed us

A side of Hondo!”

"Who is Hondo?"

Lu Wuxia, who was resting off the court, heard Heinsohn's praise and asked the people around him.

Shooting coach John Long said: "John Havlicek."

"Oh my God!" Lu Wuxia said in surprise, "I'm so honored!"

Trailing by 11 points after the first quarter.

Donovan could see that it was difficult to win this game relying on one person's performance, and Duncan was still the kind of meticulous insider - although he could also shoot three-pointers, his offensive options were very traditional. If he wanted to score points,

Can't beat the opponent.

However, if you want to rely on the team, the Heat currently cannot find a guard who can take into account both personal offense and organization.

Suddenly, Donovan thought of the man who could come back in just one more game.

gilbert arenas

He is indeed the key to breaking this deadlock, but after passing through the gun door, can Arenas' teammates still believe in him? Can they forgive Arenas for his mistakes?

But now is not the time to think about that.

The first thing Donovan needs to do now is to get his team through the transition period.

The main force fell behind by 11 points in the first quarter, which was an unexpected defeat, and the transition period was an unexpectedly difficult period.

The depth of the Celtics' lineup is the root of their strength.

Because they have a strong enough lineup, they can give their main players enough rest without worrying about their second lineup being overwhelmed.

Because under normal circumstances, their second lineup should defeat the opponent's first lineup. If there is a situation where the second lineup cannot beat, it is basically because the opponent has reached the transition stage and cannot use its main force.

But this way it will be more in line with the Celtics' wishes.

If the main players don't get enough rest time, how can they persist until the end of the game?

Donovan entered the stage of trusting his players - then he saw a 226cm tall player in the Celtics' second team...

At that moment, Donovan knew that if they could not successfully welcome Arenas back, it would be difficult to defeat the Celtics.

After all, the playoffs are not about the lower limit, but the upper limit.

The damn Celtics are so luxurious that they can let Yao Yue sit on the bench for half a quarter to reduce the dimensionality of their second team. How high does their upper limit have to be?
