Chapter 2009 Hang Him up and Beat Him!
"Be tougher! They only need to pay attention to two people in their team, and you are the strongest! Remember this! Chris, you have to be tougher, Chalmers, give the ball to the inside!"
"Remember, this is our home court. We just need to hold on and seize the opportunity. They won't have a chance. 10 points is nothing!" Spoelstra angrily rebuked during the timeout. This was the first time Spoelstra was so tough in a long time.
He is confident, because although they are both a senior and a junior, they have been playing together for a whole year, and the lineup is also very suitable. Wade and Chalmers can dribble, and James can organize and attack in the frontcourt. Bosh also has shooting ability, and Battier has both defense and three-point shooting. Once this lineup gets going, the points will increase very quickly.
But Spoelstra seems to have forgotten that the Lakers also have the things he said!
Ji Feng's No. 4 position is the hard-steel James. He is not disadvantaged in all aspects of height and weight. On the contrary, his offensive ability is stronger and his defense is tougher. The same is true for Kobe. Wade has no advantage in singles against Kobe. At most, they will blow each other. This This season, Kobe even had the advantage. Wade's knee made him lose a lot of speed that he was proud of. On the contrary, Kobe took better care of himself than in the previous two seasons.
At the No. 1 position, Farmar is one step taller than Chalmers. Although he is at a disadvantage in terms of weight, it is enough to rely on his height. Farmar can also hit 2 goals with an average three-point shooting rate of 41% per game. It's a lot better than Chalmers' 33%. And inside, Bosh's offensive ability is much better than Powell's, and his attack range is wider. But Powell doesn't need to attack. He just needs to follow Bosh and do a good job. It's enough to defend the pick-and-roll. As for the third position, Barnes has no independent offensive ability anyway. His task is to defend Battier's three-pointer. On the defensive end, the two become Siamese twins, and on the offensive end, they open up space, etc. Just shoot a three-pointer.
In other words, what the Heat have, the Lakers have, and what the Lakers have, the Heat may not have. Except for Powell, everyone else on the Lakers has relatively stable three-point ability, plus Ji Feng's organizational ability...
After the timeout, the Heat attacked again. This time James went to the low post to challenge Ji Feng, but he couldn't beat him. Ji Feng stuck in the main position and pushed James as far as possible outside the penalty area. Although James had worked hard to practice his back, his skills were still the same. It's very rough, and his turn and back is extremely inaccurate, so he is really embarrassed in the half-shot position.
With no choice but to switch, good brother Wade's pick-and-roll attack can break the Heat's scoring drought.
However, the Lakers immediately started teaching in the low post, and the Heat faded quickly. At first glance, it seemed that they were frightened by the Lakers' several consecutive fast breaks, but the Lakers directly opened up and tried to find a way to create a low post singles opportunity for Ji Feng.
James also followed Ji Feng's example, using crazy force to block the position, but Ji Feng can shoot!
Turn around and lean back!
James could only watch as the basketball flew into the basket.
James turned around and used a pick-and-roll to force a breakout, but the Lakers also relied on Kobe to single out Wade in the low post and score the ball with the same fadeaway.
One left and one right, as if mocking the Heat for their inability to post up.
The situation was so deadlocked. No matter how loud Spoelstra shouted on the sidelines, the Heat could not reduce the score to less than 10 points. Instead, before the end of the second quarter, Ji Feng bypassed the pick-and-roll and made a pull-up three-pointer to seal the score. At 57-44, the Lakers led by 13 points at halftime!
"The Lakers' lineup...not to mention, it's really beyond my expectation. Both Ji Feng and Kobe can play hard in the low post. This doesn't have the problem of the Lakers not being able to play positional battles, and there are a group of people on the outside waiting to shoot three-pointers. Ji Feng can also protect rebounds, this lineup is really good!" Director Zhang commented.
He was originally not optimistic about the Lakers' lineup. After all, it was too short. Once the rebounds were out of control, it would be over. However, it turned out that the Heat's ability to control rebounds was not very strong. He usually let James use his mobility when playing one-year-old and four-year-old. Sexual control, but Ji Feng is not weak at all. On the contrary, he has stronger rebounding ability. He rushed to pick off rebounds in front of James several times. If the Heat's shooting percentage was not good, they would have led by more points in this quarter.
At halftime, the Heat fans were already mute. They didn't understand why their team was beaten like this. How could the senior and fourth juniors, who had no good solution for the Lakers in the last game, were suppressed.
Hum, only magic can defeat magic!
Ji Feng said.
But the blame still needs to be found. James had 14 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds in the half, Wade had 13 points, 2 assists and 2 rebounds, and Bosh only scored 5 points...
Damn it, it's you again, Chris Bosh, the guy with the biggest crotch among the Big Three. Gasol played 12 minutes at halftime and scored 5 points. You actually scored 5 points in 22 minutes of playing. It's just crotch-stretching!
Appeared!
Bosh!
Miami’s eternal scapegoat!
Fortunately, Bosh didn't know that the audience was already scolding him at this moment, otherwise he would probably be wronged to death. Although his shooting percentage in this game was not good, he only took 6 shots, half of James's, and they were basically shots. I have to pull out from time to time to provide him with a single screen or become a turret as an outside tool. He would never have thought that you could rely on him.
But there is no way, this is reality...
Spoelstra was furious in the locker room. They were completely suppressed by the Lakers in the first half, which completely invalidated his plan. He did not expect that the Lakers would create a large team and four small teams when the center was beaten like this. And tore up their lineup.
"In the second half, we can't lose no matter what!" Spoelstra roared. He was going to start playing a big lineup and replace the starting lineup.
However, when they came on the court, they found that the Lakers had also returned to the starting lineup. Jordan Hill, who had been deflated for a long time, vented his emotions with a dunk. Gasol was also waiting for work, turning around lightly and tricking Bosh with a little hook...
On the other hand, the Heat still returned to James' one-man show, playing position, rushing, and then drawing fouls or making iron.
The referee obviously didn't dare to blow the whistle randomly in this game. After all, the referee of the previous game had been determined not to appear on the finals stage again, so although the home whistle was still there, it was still much better than the previous game.
This caused James' success rate in singles to inevitably decrease. The Lakers played better and better, leading to 19 points in the third quarter. This was because Wade threw a half-court three-pointer at the buzzer.
"The Lakers' tactical reserve and talent reserve are really strong. In the second quarter, a new tactic directly reversed the entire game. The Heat were completely tricked into it. At this time, they were in no condition. They were 19 points behind in the third quarter. If they wanted to make a comeback, they could only All that's left is a miracle." O'Neal shook his head, the Lakers are much scarier now than when he was here.
In the fourth quarter, the Heat fought tooth and nail to make a comeback, but they couldn't accept such an ending. Wade didn't care about his knees and fought hard when he had the chance. James also kept encouraging his teammates, and even Chalmers made a shot. Three points.
However, the Lakers took the initiative to change their formation again. Ji Feng became the third position and played without the ball. Kobe, Farmar, and Black took turns giving the ball to Ji Feng. Ji Feng screened three times in a row and made three 3-pointers. The score became bigger and bigger.
When Ji Feng made his seventh three-pointer of the game with only 2 minutes left, the point difference had widened to 25 points, and everything came to an end!
