Chapter 774

"Double twenty + triple double + 5*5, this is the performance of the first player in active service in the second finals G1 game. He continues to use super explosive data to maintain a super high ratings."

"The performances of O'Neal and Haslem show that the Hammer's defense can be suppressed!"

"The Spurs must let go of Duncan, because they can't even assign Haslem to Duncan! But Haslem's annual salary is only five million dollars this year."

"The era of encirclement and suppression of the Hammer has begun. Two powerful insiders are the standard configuration of the Encirclement and Suppression Hammer, and one of them must be a defensive insider."

At 9 o'clock in the morning, after Li Ba woke up, he browsed the news.

The G2 match was on June 11th, and today was a rest day. He first oiled his body, then walked the dog with the girl, and played two hours in the backyard in the afternoon, half of which was spent practicing free throws.

At noon the next day, he went to the headquarters and first participated in the discussion of the tactical meeting.

Frank said: "From the G1 game, we can know that O'Neal's physical fitness is not enough, he can only suppress the Hammer with all his strength, so we must start from this point in the game tomorrow night. The headache is that our scoring ability is not enough. Te's playing time was suppressed."

Ron Adams said: "In the G1 game, our perimeter defense was not strong enough. We must pay attention to this game. We must suppress the opponent's shooting percentage through perimeter defense."

Li Ba nodded and said: "This should be caused by fatigue, but now is the most critical time, we should fight for the last. The Heat are the same as us, whoever can fight better will win. In this game, I suggest and They play defense, which is our strength."

He glanced at Dazhi and David Lee, put forward his own suggestion, and said, "Dazhi and David can be placed on the bench to grab points. Our main lineup digs holes, and they fill them in."

"Haha..." Everyone laughed.

After the tactical meeting, the team resumed training, and played a half-time intra-team match according to the tactics formulated just now.

As the Suns prepare for Game 2, the Heat are doing the same.

Pat Riley also held a tactical meeting, but the specific matters were all decided by him.

He said to Mourning: "Alonzo, now is the time for us to go all out, are you okay?"

Mourning got up from his seat, clenched his fists, and replied forcefully: "Pat, I still have oil, I can fight the whole game, I'm ready."

Pat Riley nodded, for Mourning, he is confident, this is a tough man.

On the evening of the 11th, the G2 match of the 2005-06 season finals began.

The Suns put Kurt Thomas in the starting lineup.

In this game, the Suns focused on defense from the very beginning. In order to allow Li Ba to devote himself to the defensive end, he didn't even play fast break tactics.

Of course, it's not all of them not playing. If the opportunity is good after grabbing backboard rebounds, Li Ba will of course also play.

But in this game, the Heat also worked hard.

Mourning originally averaged only one quarter per game in the first three series, but this time, he played 35 minutes.

His increased playing time has only one purpose, either to team up with O'Neal or Haslem to suppress Li Ba's defense and fast break.

The Heat did not only suppress Li Ba with all their strength in the fourth quarter like in the G1 game, but they suppressed Li Ba throughout the game, and the three insiders were all desperate.

The Heat's tactic was unexpected by the Suns. No one expected Mourning to play for such a long time.

In the G2 game, Li Ba's defense and fast break were suppressed to a certain extent. Whether it was defense or offense, the Suns were greatly affected.

The Suns persisted for three quarters, and collapsed after their physical fitness declined in the fourth quarter, 81:90, thus losing the G2 game.

Li Ba played 43 minutes, 7 of 9 shots, 2 blocks, 6 of 8 free throws, 20 points, 25 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals, 4 blocks, 4 turnovers and 3 fouls.

Ordinarily, this data is not bad, but there is a clear gap compared with the G1 game.

From the perspective of assists, the scoring ability of teammates is obviously not as good as playing, which is why they only scored 81 points in the G2 game.

From the point of view of rebounds, the Heat's three major insiders have exerted their strength, which has caused his data to decline.

Judging by other defensive statistics and the number of turnovers, this is the most important reason for the failure.

Benefiting from Li Ba being suppressed by the audience in the paint, Wade exploded and made a breakthrough. He made 13 of 27 shots, 14 of 18 free throws, and scored 40 points.

Of course, 3 of Li Ba's 4 hats were given to him.

The Heat's three major insiders didn't do much offense. Including O'Neal, they all suppressed Li Ba's defense on their own offensive end. This is the key tactic for the Heat to win.

Back home, Li Ba was lying on the bed, not feeling sleepy for a while.

He was thinking about the game just now, and he thought Frank was a bit conservative in employing people.

Thomas is 34 years old, and he played too long in this game, which led to a decline in his state later, which was an important reason for the loss.

Antonio McDyess was actually pretty good, and he decided to give Frank some advice.

"Big Hammer, will we win?" the girl next to him asked with concern.

"Of course I will win!"

Li Ba chuckled, and said: "Haslem doesn't say anything, O'Neill doesn't say it, I just say Mourning, how many games can he fight like this? Now it's a war of attrition, I'll grind them, and I'll grind them to death." !"

"Uh-huh!"

Li Ba said again: "I admire Pat Riley very much. He is really ruthless in employing people! If he dares to use Mourning like that, he won't be afraid that Mourning will fall on the field?"

"oh."

The girl nodded with a vague understanding.

The next day, the Suns flew to Miami, and the G3 battle will start on the 13th.

Liu Yifei and a group of people took another plane to go.

"The Heat's tactics show that the Hammer's defense can indeed be suppressed, which gives other teams confidence and ideas for team building."

"The tactics are beneficial, and the Heat's victory is in sight!"

"The collapse of the sun is imminent!"

On this day, the media also began to hype the tie in the finals.

Barkley was interviewed by the media. He said: "I think the Suns have nothing to do at the moment. The scoring ability is too weak, which can allow the Heat to double-team the Hammer unscrupulously, thereby reducing his efficiency and finally defeating the Suns.

If the Heat can persevere, I am optimistic that the Heat will win the final victory.

But the Heat also have weaknesses. Can Mourning, whose playing time soars, persist until the end of this series?

Pat Riley is betting big, if Mourning can carry it, he will win the finals. If Mourning can't carry it, then the Suns are likely to have the advantage. "

Jordan also accepted an interview with the media, saying: "The Suns' lineup is still too bad, and a bunch of role players can't help the Hammers. The G3G4 game is crucial. The Suns should find a way to win an away game and strive for a draw."

Big Ben, who was eliminated by the Heat, was also interviewed by the media. He said: "The Suns still lack a defensive insider. I know Kurt Thomas is not young, is he 34 years old? His physical fitness can't handle it in the fourth quarter." Well, the Suns didn't have anyone else going up the paint, and that's why the Suns lost in the fourth quarter. What I'm saying is, the Suns still lack a guy like me."
