The best teammates in the NBA
Chapter 309 New Records
Chapter 309 New Record (9000 word chapter)
As of 2013, only 9 players have achieved a triple-double on the stage of the NBA Finals.
Looking back, in the 09-10 season, in the finals between the Lakers and the Celtics, Rajon Rondo scored a triple-double.
02~03赛季,篮网队与马刺队的总决赛中,蒂姆-邓肯砍下21分20篮板10助攻8盖帽4失误的准四双数据。
Among active players, including Kidd, only three have achieved a triple-double in the Finals.
Therefore, after LeBron James scored a triple-double in G2 of the finals, the media reporters in America naturally bragged.
Losing the game can't cover up everyone's praise for LeBron James, and Li Ze's 37 points are no longer discussed.
Ball critics seem to be used to Li Ze's scoring, and high scoring can no longer even stimulate the media.
However, fans in Los Angeles don't care about James' statistics. Everyone still prefers high scores, or victory!
After Kobe was injured, many Lakers fans turned to watch Li Ze play.
On the night of the 11th, bursts of cheers erupted in the Staples Arena. Contrary to everyone's expectations, the Clippers' outside CD was finally healed. The role players played well, and the Heat's strong double-teaming paid the price.
Coach Spoelstra put pressure on the two ball-handlers Paul and Li Ze almost from the beginning. This tactic almost made the Heat comeback in the G2 game.
When Li Ze holds the ball at the top of the arc, Battier will immediately stick to the defense. At the same time, Wade will let go of Ray Allen and cooperate with double-teaming.
After Bosh's defensive rotation inside, he will pay attention to Li Ze's pass. Once Ray Allen receives the ball, he will also delay it immediately.
Even if Jordan gets a chance at a few moments, the jumper who has no handling ability will choose to dunk the ball most of the time. At this time, LeBron James' defense will be in place.
The same strategy applies to Paul. Many times, one-on-one, Paul prefers to use the pick-and-roll, and the Heat take advantage of this, and the pick-and-roll instantly becomes a double-team.
Excellent defensive mobility, so that LeBron James can even defend against two. Griffin, who has no mid-range, will go straight to the basket after receiving a pass from Paul. This also allows the Heat to defend calmly. The disadvantage is that it will consume James' physical energy.
This tactic was particularly successful in G2. Jordan, who stretched his hips with free throws, could boldly foul, and the Clippers' outside line would also be emptied at certain moments.
It's just that any tactic is flawed. Faced with the sudden explosion of the Clippers' outside line, everyone in the Heat team was immediately paralyzed.
As Paul received a pass from Li Ze on the left flank outside the three-point line, he was far away from the three-point line, and Turiaf, who replaced him, picked and rolled at a high position. He suddenly accelerated the ball with his left hand and easily got rid of Chalmer. Adams' defense.
At this time, LeBron James immediately switched defenses, and Wade, who had completed double-teaming at the top of the arc, also hurried to the right corner to mark Ray Allen.
Paul, who was accelerating with the ball in his left hand, was almost knocked to the floor by James again, and was forced to slow down after a stagger.
Fortunately, Li Ze suddenly cut in without the ball, and Paul immediately hit the ground behind his back and passed the ball, and accurately found the golden thigh.
Battier's defense was a bit slow, and seeing Li Ze take off immediately after receiving the ball, he quickly jumped up to block the block. Bosh at the basket saw Li Ze throwing the ball high, and immediately realized that it was time for a foul.
The high-jumping Jordan had just caught the ball, and before he had time to make a dunk, he was directly dragged down by Bosh.
Jordan, who was about to hit the street, was a little annoyed. Just about to throw the ball at the opponent, he suddenly remembered that the team did not have a big man in rotation, and finally just yelled at Bosh:
"Aside from fouling, what else would you do! You won't win the championship!"
Perhaps it was the last sentence that stimulated Bosh's sensitive heart. He immediately stepped forward and gave little Jordan a hard push, then pulled his neck and roared loudly:
"Mommy Falk! Be respectful, kid! What right do you have to talk trash with me!"
The two were torn into a ball in an instant, and Jordan, who was suffocated in the playoffs, directly pushed Bosh to the bottom of the basketball hoop.
There was another burst of cheers in the Staples Arena. The fans on the scene were overjoyed and booed continuously. In the end, the players on both sides worked together to separate the two.
Bosh is still chattering, role players are also worthy of spraying against him as an All-Star?
Seeing the arrogance of everyone in the Clippers, Bosh was furious.
Amidst the booing of the fans at the scene, the referee whistled a technical foul on both sides.
In the end, Paul and Wade executed free throws. After each hit a goal, the score of the two sides came to 62:75.
"At halftime, the Heat were only behind by 6 points, but unfortunately, in the third quarter, they failed to narrow the gap."
"LeBron James recovered in the third quarter with 8 of 2, and currently scored 3 points with 9 of 4 in a single quarter, but what I want to say is that other players on the Heat team need to stand up!"
Jeff Van Gundy looked at the technical statistics in his hand and felt a little regretful. Wade suddenly misfired and didn't score in the third quarter, which was too fatal.
Jordan stood on the free throw line again and kept making shots, as if he wanted to give himself some psychological comfort, but he made the first free throw decisively.
Paul, standing outside the three-point line with his knees on his knees, kept panting heavily. When he saw Jordan miss another free throw, the corner of his mouth twitched.
Jordan waved his hand angrily, took the ball again, took aim for a while, and hit the back edge of the basket again after taking the shot.
Turiaf and Bosh at the basket were almost hugging each other, Li Ze and James also pulled each other, and the four of them squeezed to the basket together, and the ball bounced unexpectedly quickly.
In the end, Jordan shot himself and grabbed the offensive rebound, and quickly threw the ball to Paul at the logo position. The Clippers were ready to kill time again.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines hated this tactic, and kept shouting for Chalmers to defend.
The Clippers have been grinding and grinding, and they will definitely give the ball to Li Ze in the end. What makes the Heat's coaching staff feel helpless is that, with their outstanding personal ability, they may finally score at the buzzer.
Paul defended the ball with his back at the top of the arc and did not give Chalmers any chance. After 10 seconds, he saw Li Ze, who was in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line, suddenly bounced out to the left wing beyond the three-point line. Send a cross pass and at the same time signal to your teammates to clear one side.
The double-digit point difference made LeBron James go berserk again. The moment Li Ze received the ball, he immediately gave up defending Turiaf and accelerated towards Li Ze.
At the same time, Battier also began to block Li Ze's left hand, fully cooperating with James who rushed forward to double-team.
Seeing that Li Ze was holding the ball in his right hand, he took two steps back to the right sideline. Battier and James were overjoyed and pressed the defense again, preparing to block Li Ze on the right sideline.
At the moment when the two were approaching, Li Ze suddenly circled the ball behind his back, and at the same time, his body jumped forward violently.
The audience in the front row saw the ball fly out from Battier's crotch, and Li Ze, who squeezed between the two, caught the ball with his right hand instantly.
"Oh!!"
Although the audience in the back row couldn't see Li Ze's actions clearly, they broke through the double-team and rushed to the three-point line, which made the fans subconsciously exclaim.
James still did not give up the defense, and immediately started to continue chasing and defending. At the same time, Bosh immediately stepped forward to help defend.
Li Ze, who was on the move, did not force a breakthrough, but suddenly threw the ball high to the upper right of the basket.
After Bosh reacted, he took a slow shot in the end. Watching the ball slip past his fingertips, Jordan at the bottom right of the basket immediately jumped up, jumped high, caught the ball in the air, and then smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!
"Boom!" The empty pick and eat the pie!
"Ah!"
After completing the dunk, Jordan yelled at Bosh in front of him. The wonderful alley-oop dunk instantly ignited the atmosphere in the Staples Arena, and the Heat's ears were filled with the crazy shouts of the fans.
"Extraordinary full of imagination! I really can't describe Kayce's personal ability!"
Jeff Van Gundy was still lamenting this offensive round, and the commentator Mike Breen beside him said excitedly at this time:
"Congratulations to Kayce! With this assist, his statistics in this game have reached 35 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Maybe we will witness the birth of a new record tonight!"
When Li Ze and Jr. completed the high-five celebration, the big screen at the scene immediately showed the data of Li Ze's three-quarter match:
20中12,其中三分球8中4,罚球7中7,35分10篮板10助攻1抢断2失误,这也使得现场的球迷又开始哇哇大叫,今晚或许他们又要见证历史了!
LeBron James naturally noticed the situation on the scene, but he didn't have the mind to pay attention to the data anymore.
In this attack, James held the ball across half court, accelerated directly from outside the three-point line, and carried Li Ze at the top of the arc to break into the paint. After a big leap, he blocked Jordan's block and completed the shot!
"squeak!"
The referee immediately blew Li Ze's blocking foul, and the Staples Arena burst into a burst of false noises.
Li Ze had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and stand aside, ready to protect the backcourt rebound.
James on the free throw line took a deep breath, then hit the iron for the first free throw, and immediately cursed secretly:
"Shet!"
Fortunately, after the adjustment of the second free throw, he made a steady hit, 2:63. Seeing that the point difference was still 77 points, James was even more anxious.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines saw that Chris Paul was taking his time again, and almost yelled angrily, but he couldn't change the situation on the court.
With Paul hitting the iron for 24 seconds, James missed a super long three-pointer, and the third quarter of the game officially ended.
None of the big three on the bench said a word. James, Wade, and Bosh seemed to have returned to the finals of the previous two years. Once they lost tonight, they would face Game 4 the day after tomorrow. The nightmare still persisted.
In the fourth quarter, it seemed that Li Zegao's scoring was stimulated, and LeBron James continued to shoot wildly.
Except for Li Ze's 5 fouls in half a quarter, the point difference was not narrowed.
However, Li Ze only took 2 shots in the second quarter of the game. Although he frequently faced James in the second half, his physical condition was still good. After 4 of 9 in the third quarter, he cooperated with Paul in the last quarter to grind the position.
It was another attack approaching 24 seconds. Griffin at the top of the arc took the ball to respond. Li Ze faced James' defense. When he moved up the line, he suddenly ran back. To pass the ball, then take the ball and throw it!
"Buzz!"
"Shh!"
When 24 seconds are up, the three-pointer goes into the net!
James above calmed down completely, watching Li Ze start to shake his head and retreat again, but he knew in his heart that it would be difficult for him to keep up with Li Ze's rhythm after gaining weight.
The fans at the scene began to cheer loudly again, and Steve Ballmer under the basketball stand also yelled and applauded continuously. Considering the undefeated home game, the old man thought he had become the lucky star of the Clippers!
此时全场比赛还2分12秒,82:95,快船队依然领先着13分。
Everyone in the Heat team was a little frustrated. They managed to catch up to 10 points, and a three-pointer turned into 13 points.
Coach Spoelstra didn't give up until the last moment. The coaching staff really didn't want to play G1 with a big score of 2:4 behind.
But with Li Ze and Paul desperately pressing the time, the Heat failed to find any opportunities.
In the end, 89:100, the Clippers successfully won the game, and the big score in the series also came to 2:1.
When the final buzzer sounded, LeBron James said nothing, ripped off the headband and armguard, simply shook hands with the Clippers, and then quickly returned to the player channel.
Chris Paul was in a good mood, smiling after winning the game, so he didn't care that Wade and James punched him hard in these two games, and he was even in the mood to ask Wade for a simple greeting.
ESPN sideline reporter Doris Burke waited for Li Ze's arrival with a smile on her face. Seeing Steve Ballmer pulling Li Ze to wave to the audience, she could only whisper to the staff around her:
"The president of Microsoft may really plan to build another arena. In a few years, we will change the venue when we interview."
"Building an arena costs a lot of money"
In the middle of the staff's speech, he noticed the eyes of everyone around him, and suddenly thought that the old man seemed to have no shortage of beautiful knives.
After Li Ze gave his jersey to an enthusiastic little fan, he quickly came to the sidelines and accepted an interview with Doris Burke:
"Congratulations! Kayce, 45 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. In the history of the finals, you are the first player to achieve a 1-point triple-double. Can you talk about your feelings?"
Li Ze, who was wearing a black bodysuit, looked particularly strong, and when he heard such a question, he just smiled and replied:
"It's just a small record in my opinion!"
"I don't care about the data. I can get a triple-double thanks to my teammates. Andrew keeps getting stuck, and our outside line keeps responding!"
"Of course, I am really excited to be a part of history, but for me, the most important thing is that we won G3 tonight!"
The staff of ESPN were speechless when they heard Li Ze's answer, and this X was really powerless to refute.
"."
The game on the night of the 11th had just ended, and the sports media of America turned their backs collectively and started shouting loudly:
"Clippers Championship!"
LeBron James' triple-double record in the finals only lasted for one day, and it was overshadowed by Li Ze's triple-double record in the finals.
TNT does not have the rights to broadcast the finals, but the game has just ended, and the group of 4 people started their comments again:
“25中15,其中三分球9中5,罚球10中10,45分12篮板10助攻2抢断2失误,谁能告诉我,热火队是怎么防守Kayce的吗?”
Charles Barkley's eyes widened, and he shouted in a tone of disbelief.
"They did try their best, buddy! Of course, LeBron James shouldn't choose single defense in individual possessions. Maybe he can guard most players in the league, but he can't limit Kayce. He spent too much on the defensive end tonight. energy."
O'Neal was still standing for LeBron James, but Kenny Smith on the side immediately took over:
“25中9,其中三分球7中2,罚球8中6,26分11篮板7助攻2抢断2失误,我认为勒布朗应该调整他的进攻模式,他可以尝试更多的中距离。”
Host Ernie Johnson shifted the topic to Wade and Bosh:
"The Heat should not blame LeBron James for the loss. Wade went 15 of 7 and scored 16 points. Bosh scored 10 of 4 and scored 12 points and 10 rebounds. I think they have to improve their performance. It's hard for Brown to win alone!"
"But if you're the leader of the team and your teammates don't feel good, you need to stand up and score. Kayce does a better job of this!"
"Of course, Chris Paul is also worthy of praise. He successfully digested some possessions, 17 of 8, including 3 of 1 three-pointers, 6 of 4 free throws, 21 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 1 turnover. Perhaps, We all underestimated the Clippers' backcourt."
Charles Barkley seemed to be turning into a fool. Just after he finished speaking, all three looked at him with a smile:
"So, have you changed your mind again and started supporting the Clippers?"
"Hey! I've always been a fan of Kayce, I follow him on Twitter, I love watching him play! Of course I will support the Clippers!"
"."
It is not easy to score 40+ points in the finals.
After all, this record itself has a huge difficulty, the players have to reach the finals first.
Except for the cheating Jerry West who played 10+ performances 40 times in the finals.
Stronger than Michael Jordan, 6 finals, and only 6 40+ points.
Therefore, this is also an achievement that easily arouses envy and hatred. However, when Li Ze got a triple-double of 40+, the NBA still specially released a poster on INS:
"Witness the greatness! The only one in history! (Crown.jpg)"
The grasshoppers seem to have forgotten the triple-double data of LeBron James in the last game overnight. The loser is indeed easier to be ignored.
On the morning of the 12th, in the Heat's video class, everyone watched in silence as Li Ze switched freely between with and without the ball. His flexible movement and quick delivery of the ball made double-teaming come back without success.
In most rounds, Chris Paul is used as the node and Griffin is used as the second point. The tactics are not complicated. Paul cannot catch the ball, and Griffin will do hand-offs after receiving.
Even in individual rounds, Ray Allen is also a point of contact, the veteran can also break through with the ball
"We should change the direction of offense. There is no problem with defense. I need more ball or low attack. I can handle that Andrew Jordan who only knows how to jump!"
Chris Bosh is a little dissatisfied with the team's positioning of him. He feels that what Duncan can do at the age of 37, he can also do.
"We need you to protect the rebounds. At 36:44, we had 8 fewer rebounds than the opponent. In a game, the opponent grabbed 11 offensive rebounds. It is basically impossible to win!"
LeBron James is also dissatisfied with the team's inside line. In order to protect the backcourt rebounds, he has consumed a lot of physical energy, which has affected his offense.
Wade noticed that the two were staring at each other, and immediately said loudly:
"Hey! We're gonna win! Relax, win a road game and we'll be back in Miami!"
"Low post offense is a good idea. We all have to take responsibility for rebounding. The coaching staff will solve these problems!"
Two consecutive years of failure, coupled with this year's loss of home court, has caused some contradictions in the Heat team.
Without victory, no one is willing to be a green leaf!
Bosh has played farther and farther this season, and his statistics have been declining year by year. The sacrifices have not been rewarded, and the dissatisfaction in his heart has reached the limit.
In the first year of cooperation between the Big Three, even though he lost, he still averaged 1 points per game in the playoffs. In the second year, the data dropped, and only 18.6 points were recorded. Both are getting harder
Head coach Spoelstra is also having a headache for a while, leaving too little time for the Heat to adjust, but if there is another infighting in the team at this time, the game will be completely gone:
"We have to believe in each other! Don't forget that there are still four games in the series, and we still have two home games, cheer up, We are family!"
LeBron James was sullen and didn't say a word. He had already given his all to gain weight and hit the 4th position!
He didn't like how the Heat positioned him. Pat Riley lied to him and he failed to be a magician.
The atmosphere team of the Heat didn't dare to speak out. No one likes to lose. If they continue to lose, then maybe the team is really over.
Compared with the Heat team that is about to be infighting, Chris Paul is full of motivation on the Clippers side, and even feels that he is full of energy!
Without him, as long as they win G4 and the score reaches 3:1, there will be no suspense in the series.
As of 2013, in the finals, no team can complete a counterattack when it is 1:3 behind.
Maybe there is only one game away from the championship. Thinking of this, Paul almost lost sleep last night.
Looking back at the game video and completing the recovery training step by step, the Clippers almost turned down all the interviews. As long as they win the championship, they will be the focus of the league throughout the offseason!
Li Ze still completed his three-point shooting training as planned, physical fitness is not a problem for him, and after last night's game, he received two more purple badges.
Achievement Badge [Back to the King]: (can be merged)
Improve the ability to make post-back fadeaway jump shots, improve the stability of the shot, and reduce the impact of frontal defenders.
Achievement badge [emergency stop three-point turret]: (can be merged)
Enhance the three-point shooting rate after dribbling on the spot, improve the stability of shots, and reduce the influence of frontal defenders.
Although Li Ze did not increase his three-point shooting this season, he reached the finals and upgraded a three-point badge to purple by relying on the number of games.
Continuous crotch dribbles, the body swayed according to the rhythm, and the retreat was easily completed, and finally hit the shot, a set of movements was smooth and smooth.
Everyone in the Clippers couldn't help sighing when they saw the training stick raised by trainer Tony and failed to have any impact on Li Ze:
"Golden thighs are really powerful"
Jamal Crawford performed well in G3, 10 of 5, including 6 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 14 points. However, the head coach De Nagro did not dare to use this super sixth man too much. It's a bit of a stretch indeed.
However, the team won and reached the finals, which also made the veteran Crawford calm, and playing time must be won by performance.
The head coach Gnagro does not rely on player relationships like traditional black coaches, which also makes the Clippers have few conflicts in the locker room. If you want to win trust, you have to show your performance.
"We can add some breakthroughs. When we return to the home court, the referee will be biased. If LeBron can get the 4th foul early, the game will be much easier to play!"
Paul is still communicating with the assistant coach. If he wants to increase the breakthrough, sometimes he needs to let the big man leave the paint area. This is also a double-edged sword. In the end, the assistant coach just nodded:
"We'll have to see what the scale is for tomorrow night, but it's a really good idea."
Griffin on the side was a little depressed when he heard Paul's words. The offensive end of the finals was basically soy sauce.
He did get a lot of opportunities, but every time he received the ball at the free throw line, the opponent let him go two steps away. Facing a huge open space, he didn't dare to shoot, which made Griffin a little embarrassed.
After finishing the training, Li Ze saw that Griffin was not in a good mood, patted him on the shoulder, and then consulted the team doctor:
"How's Blake doing?"
"The G3 game made his injury worse. For health reasons, maybe we should reduce our playing time, but there are still 4 games in the series. Perhaps it will be difficult for Blake to persist until the end."
Griffin just wanted to make a tough statement, but Li Ze said with a smile:
"Win G4 and end the series in one breath, Blake will fight to the end!"
Everyone in the Clippers also heard Li Ze's words, and the atmosphere group cheered immediately:
"Yes, Kayce will end the series at home, we will win the championship!"
"Wow!"
After resting for more than a day, on the night of the 13th, the Staples Arena was full. The G4 game was extremely important to both sides, and the fans were also happy to see the scene of sparks hitting the earth.
As the DJ on the scene introduced the Heat players, there were bursts of boos in the Staples Arena. After all the Heat players appeared on the field, they formed a circle again. Wade stood in the middle and shouted loudly:
"Trust each other! Be patient! We are fighting!"
At this time, the Clippers' short video began to be played on the scene. The wonderful playoff scenes made the atmosphere even hotter. With Li Ze's appearance, the fans began to scream.
When the lights came on again, the fiery atmosphere gradually subsided. In the commentary seat of ESPN, Jeff Van Gundy said in an exclamation tone:
"In such an important game, coach Spoelstra adjusted the starting lineup!"
"Chalmers and Wade will play in the backcourt, Mike Miller will start on the front line, LeBron James will play at the 4th position, and Chris Bosh will be at the 5th position."
"With this lineup, the Heat have a lot of rebounding pressure, but obviously coach Spoelstra wants to open up the situation on the offensive end. I have to say that this is a bold change."
The commentator Mike Brin also briefly introduced the Clippers' starting lineup, and then followed up with questions:
"The Clippers continued the lineup from the previous game, and Ray Allen still started. Jeff, who do you think the Heat will use to defend Kayce?"
"Considering that the Heat need to protect rebounds, perhaps in this game, Wade will defend in front of Kayce."
In the last game, Mike Miller scored 5 of 5 from beyond the three-point line. This performance has won the trust of coach Spoelstra!
As the referee threw the ball high, Jordan easily jumped to the ball for the Clippers. The DJ on the scene began to lead the audience to shout in unison:
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"
Chris Paul, who had just passed halftime, was surprised to find that Mike Miller was facing Li Ze. He immediately waved to the Clippers. At the three-point line, ask for the ball sideways.
At the moment of receiving the pass, Li Ze took advantage of the situation to lower the center of gravity of his body, swayed left and right, and while releasing the ball with his right hand, he only dribbled one step. Taking advantage of the moment when Mike Miller slid to the left, he quickly retreated. Drift the three-point jump shot!
"OH! That's good!"
Hearing the cheers from the scene, the commentator Mike Breen froze for a moment before raising the volume of the commentary slightly.
Li Ze's offense was too fast, he swayed away from the defense and threw it directly, and as a result, he drifted and hit the shot.
Mike Miller's defense is just a paper tiger, and Li Ze didn't expect the Heat to adopt such a matchup.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines was also taken aback. He wanted to try it out, but the Clippers' attack took less than 8 seconds, and he was asked to make an adjustment gesture immediately.
In such an important game, Li Ze defended LeBron James from the beginning, the Clippers still stood around the paint area, and the Heat had huge shooting space outside.
The first offense hit a three-pointer, and the fans on the scene were even more excited. After Chalmers dribbled through halftime, the scene soon sounded defensive cheers:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Wade on the left wing received the ball, Ray Allen's defense was still within the three-point line, noticed that Bosh came to the left elbow of the free throw line to perform a pick-and-roll, Ray Allen immediately went off the line to block the left hand Wade with the ball.
However, Wade did not choose to attack, but immediately distributed the ball to Bosh who bounced outside. Before Jordan could make a defense, Bosh easily hit two points at the top of the arc!
After the goal, Bosh immediately celebrated with his fists, not paying attention to the boos coming from his ears.
Paul, who quickly sent the baseline ball and dribbled across the half court, noticed that Wade was facing Li Ze again. Chalmers' constant harassment did not interfere with Paul's dribbling.
First, he directed Griffin to the free throw line, and then immediately moved quickly to the left flank. Li Ze just stuck Wade behind him in the left block position, and Paul quickly sent a through ball.
At the moment of receiving the ball, Li Ze released the ball with his right hand, and then slammed into Wade behind him with force. After a hit, his right hand pulled the ball back sharply, and then quickly twisted his body forward, ignoring Wade's block. Mid-range fadeaway shot!
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily!
Wade became more and more depressed. The difference in height, coupled with the large receding position, as long as the hand feels good, he can only watch Li Ze score easily.
On the sidelines, the head coach De Nagro clapped his hands, and then sat on the bench confidently. Although he didn't know why LeBron James didn't choose to double-team the defense, if it was a single defense, he was confident that he could shoot with his golden thighs. die each other.
In the next few rounds, Li Ze quickly discovered that LeBron James changed his offensive mode, pick-and-roll outside the three-point line, pick-and-roll at the left and right elbows, or bounce outside, or slide down to the left and right sides near the baseline.
Both mid-range hits made Li Ze startled.
LeBron James received the ball from the right flank, against Li Ze's defense, attracted Griffin, broke through and scored the ball, and assisted Mike Miller in the right corner to hit a three-pointer;
In the next round, Chris Paul encountered Mike Miller's double-team, accurately found Ray Allen on the right wing, and responded with a three-pointer.
The hit rate of both sides was extremely high, and the continuous response to the ball made the fans on the scene hooked.
After Chris Paul used Jordan's pick-and-roll to get rid of Chalmers, and changed direction in front of his body to meet Bosh and scored a mid-range mid-range, the game entered the official timeout in the first quarter.
At this time, the score was 16:16, with 6 minutes and 02 seconds left in the first quarter.
"Coach Spoelstra has reduced the consumption of LeBron James on the defensive end, and the tactics of one big and four small are very successful so far."
Jeff Van Gundy saw that the Heat's changes were good, and immediately praised Spoelstra for his bold use of people.
At this time, the Clippers were on the bench, and Griffin was a little depressed. The Heat's continuous breakthroughs and points would interrupt the Clippers' defensive formation, and Mike Miller had been staying outside the three-point line, which also made him The defense is very uncomfortable.
"PJ, I need you to keep an eye on the opposing player after you come on the court, pay attention, you don't need to help defend James."
"Kayce, in the second half of the quarter, you are responsible for defending the opponent alone. Guys, be faster on the defensive end! Respond to each other and take turns!"
Hearing the words of head coach De Nagro, Li Ze nodded immediately, while Tucker on the other side moved his body excitedly. This was his first appearance in the finals.
Chris Paul didn't know the Heat's strategy either. Without James' massive defensive double-teaming, relying on Mike Miller, the defensive intensity plummeted.
"Fight to attack?"
Paul thought of this, and noticed that Li Ze was not sweating, and suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Back from the timeout, the Heat replaced Battier and Mike Miller, and continued to maintain the 5-out lineup.
When it was time to attack, James saw the Clippers' smaller lineup, received the ball from the left flank, and immediately broke through, carrying Li Ze to the basket.
Approaching the paint area, he soared into the air, and Li Ze followed suit.
After the two confronted each other in the air, Li Ze found that James' jumping height was extremely high, and he seemed to want to make a dunk without giving the opponent a chance to dunk. Li Ze cut to the opponent's hand and directly destroyed the dunk.
"squeak!"
The referee immediately blew his whistle, indicating that Li Ze was fouled by the thug, and James got two free throws.
James stood on the free throw line calmly, but Li Ze complained silently in his heart:
"Substitution is a bit passive, Spoelstra does have two brushes."
Thank you for your subscription support~
James' stats are really strong~
After looking at the high-level statistics of the playoffs,
It really crushed most players back then-. -
There will be more words in the next chapter!
(End of this chapter)
As of 2013, only 9 players have achieved a triple-double on the stage of the NBA Finals.
Looking back, in the 09-10 season, in the finals between the Lakers and the Celtics, Rajon Rondo scored a triple-double.
02~03赛季,篮网队与马刺队的总决赛中,蒂姆-邓肯砍下21分20篮板10助攻8盖帽4失误的准四双数据。
Among active players, including Kidd, only three have achieved a triple-double in the Finals.
Therefore, after LeBron James scored a triple-double in G2 of the finals, the media reporters in America naturally bragged.
Losing the game can't cover up everyone's praise for LeBron James, and Li Ze's 37 points are no longer discussed.
Ball critics seem to be used to Li Ze's scoring, and high scoring can no longer even stimulate the media.
However, fans in Los Angeles don't care about James' statistics. Everyone still prefers high scores, or victory!
After Kobe was injured, many Lakers fans turned to watch Li Ze play.
On the night of the 11th, bursts of cheers erupted in the Staples Arena. Contrary to everyone's expectations, the Clippers' outside CD was finally healed. The role players played well, and the Heat's strong double-teaming paid the price.
Coach Spoelstra put pressure on the two ball-handlers Paul and Li Ze almost from the beginning. This tactic almost made the Heat comeback in the G2 game.
When Li Ze holds the ball at the top of the arc, Battier will immediately stick to the defense. At the same time, Wade will let go of Ray Allen and cooperate with double-teaming.
After Bosh's defensive rotation inside, he will pay attention to Li Ze's pass. Once Ray Allen receives the ball, he will also delay it immediately.
Even if Jordan gets a chance at a few moments, the jumper who has no handling ability will choose to dunk the ball most of the time. At this time, LeBron James' defense will be in place.
The same strategy applies to Paul. Many times, one-on-one, Paul prefers to use the pick-and-roll, and the Heat take advantage of this, and the pick-and-roll instantly becomes a double-team.
Excellent defensive mobility, so that LeBron James can even defend against two. Griffin, who has no mid-range, will go straight to the basket after receiving a pass from Paul. This also allows the Heat to defend calmly. The disadvantage is that it will consume James' physical energy.
This tactic was particularly successful in G2. Jordan, who stretched his hips with free throws, could boldly foul, and the Clippers' outside line would also be emptied at certain moments.
It's just that any tactic is flawed. Faced with the sudden explosion of the Clippers' outside line, everyone in the Heat team was immediately paralyzed.
As Paul received a pass from Li Ze on the left flank outside the three-point line, he was far away from the three-point line, and Turiaf, who replaced him, picked and rolled at a high position. He suddenly accelerated the ball with his left hand and easily got rid of Chalmer. Adams' defense.
At this time, LeBron James immediately switched defenses, and Wade, who had completed double-teaming at the top of the arc, also hurried to the right corner to mark Ray Allen.
Paul, who was accelerating with the ball in his left hand, was almost knocked to the floor by James again, and was forced to slow down after a stagger.
Fortunately, Li Ze suddenly cut in without the ball, and Paul immediately hit the ground behind his back and passed the ball, and accurately found the golden thigh.
Battier's defense was a bit slow, and seeing Li Ze take off immediately after receiving the ball, he quickly jumped up to block the block. Bosh at the basket saw Li Ze throwing the ball high, and immediately realized that it was time for a foul.
The high-jumping Jordan had just caught the ball, and before he had time to make a dunk, he was directly dragged down by Bosh.
Jordan, who was about to hit the street, was a little annoyed. Just about to throw the ball at the opponent, he suddenly remembered that the team did not have a big man in rotation, and finally just yelled at Bosh:
"Aside from fouling, what else would you do! You won't win the championship!"
Perhaps it was the last sentence that stimulated Bosh's sensitive heart. He immediately stepped forward and gave little Jordan a hard push, then pulled his neck and roared loudly:
"Mommy Falk! Be respectful, kid! What right do you have to talk trash with me!"
The two were torn into a ball in an instant, and Jordan, who was suffocated in the playoffs, directly pushed Bosh to the bottom of the basketball hoop.
There was another burst of cheers in the Staples Arena. The fans on the scene were overjoyed and booed continuously. In the end, the players on both sides worked together to separate the two.
Bosh is still chattering, role players are also worthy of spraying against him as an All-Star?
Seeing the arrogance of everyone in the Clippers, Bosh was furious.
Amidst the booing of the fans at the scene, the referee whistled a technical foul on both sides.
In the end, Paul and Wade executed free throws. After each hit a goal, the score of the two sides came to 62:75.
"At halftime, the Heat were only behind by 6 points, but unfortunately, in the third quarter, they failed to narrow the gap."
"LeBron James recovered in the third quarter with 8 of 2, and currently scored 3 points with 9 of 4 in a single quarter, but what I want to say is that other players on the Heat team need to stand up!"
Jeff Van Gundy looked at the technical statistics in his hand and felt a little regretful. Wade suddenly misfired and didn't score in the third quarter, which was too fatal.
Jordan stood on the free throw line again and kept making shots, as if he wanted to give himself some psychological comfort, but he made the first free throw decisively.
Paul, standing outside the three-point line with his knees on his knees, kept panting heavily. When he saw Jordan miss another free throw, the corner of his mouth twitched.
Jordan waved his hand angrily, took the ball again, took aim for a while, and hit the back edge of the basket again after taking the shot.
Turiaf and Bosh at the basket were almost hugging each other, Li Ze and James also pulled each other, and the four of them squeezed to the basket together, and the ball bounced unexpectedly quickly.
In the end, Jordan shot himself and grabbed the offensive rebound, and quickly threw the ball to Paul at the logo position. The Clippers were ready to kill time again.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines hated this tactic, and kept shouting for Chalmers to defend.
The Clippers have been grinding and grinding, and they will definitely give the ball to Li Ze in the end. What makes the Heat's coaching staff feel helpless is that, with their outstanding personal ability, they may finally score at the buzzer.
Paul defended the ball with his back at the top of the arc and did not give Chalmers any chance. After 10 seconds, he saw Li Ze, who was in the elbow area on the left side of the free throw line, suddenly bounced out to the left wing beyond the three-point line. Send a cross pass and at the same time signal to your teammates to clear one side.
The double-digit point difference made LeBron James go berserk again. The moment Li Ze received the ball, he immediately gave up defending Turiaf and accelerated towards Li Ze.
At the same time, Battier also began to block Li Ze's left hand, fully cooperating with James who rushed forward to double-team.
Seeing that Li Ze was holding the ball in his right hand, he took two steps back to the right sideline. Battier and James were overjoyed and pressed the defense again, preparing to block Li Ze on the right sideline.
At the moment when the two were approaching, Li Ze suddenly circled the ball behind his back, and at the same time, his body jumped forward violently.
The audience in the front row saw the ball fly out from Battier's crotch, and Li Ze, who squeezed between the two, caught the ball with his right hand instantly.
"Oh!!"
Although the audience in the back row couldn't see Li Ze's actions clearly, they broke through the double-team and rushed to the three-point line, which made the fans subconsciously exclaim.
James still did not give up the defense, and immediately started to continue chasing and defending. At the same time, Bosh immediately stepped forward to help defend.
Li Ze, who was on the move, did not force a breakthrough, but suddenly threw the ball high to the upper right of the basket.
After Bosh reacted, he took a slow shot in the end. Watching the ball slip past his fingertips, Jordan at the bottom right of the basket immediately jumped up, jumped high, caught the ball in the air, and then smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!
"Boom!" The empty pick and eat the pie!
"Ah!"
After completing the dunk, Jordan yelled at Bosh in front of him. The wonderful alley-oop dunk instantly ignited the atmosphere in the Staples Arena, and the Heat's ears were filled with the crazy shouts of the fans.
"Extraordinary full of imagination! I really can't describe Kayce's personal ability!"
Jeff Van Gundy was still lamenting this offensive round, and the commentator Mike Breen beside him said excitedly at this time:
"Congratulations to Kayce! With this assist, his statistics in this game have reached 35 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Maybe we will witness the birth of a new record tonight!"
When Li Ze and Jr. completed the high-five celebration, the big screen at the scene immediately showed the data of Li Ze's three-quarter match:
20中12,其中三分球8中4,罚球7中7,35分10篮板10助攻1抢断2失误,这也使得现场的球迷又开始哇哇大叫,今晚或许他们又要见证历史了!
LeBron James naturally noticed the situation on the scene, but he didn't have the mind to pay attention to the data anymore.
In this attack, James held the ball across half court, accelerated directly from outside the three-point line, and carried Li Ze at the top of the arc to break into the paint. After a big leap, he blocked Jordan's block and completed the shot!
"squeak!"
The referee immediately blew Li Ze's blocking foul, and the Staples Arena burst into a burst of false noises.
Li Ze had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and stand aside, ready to protect the backcourt rebound.
James on the free throw line took a deep breath, then hit the iron for the first free throw, and immediately cursed secretly:
"Shet!"
Fortunately, after the adjustment of the second free throw, he made a steady hit, 2:63. Seeing that the point difference was still 77 points, James was even more anxious.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines saw that Chris Paul was taking his time again, and almost yelled angrily, but he couldn't change the situation on the court.
With Paul hitting the iron for 24 seconds, James missed a super long three-pointer, and the third quarter of the game officially ended.
None of the big three on the bench said a word. James, Wade, and Bosh seemed to have returned to the finals of the previous two years. Once they lost tonight, they would face Game 4 the day after tomorrow. The nightmare still persisted.
In the fourth quarter, it seemed that Li Zegao's scoring was stimulated, and LeBron James continued to shoot wildly.
Except for Li Ze's 5 fouls in half a quarter, the point difference was not narrowed.
However, Li Ze only took 2 shots in the second quarter of the game. Although he frequently faced James in the second half, his physical condition was still good. After 4 of 9 in the third quarter, he cooperated with Paul in the last quarter to grind the position.
It was another attack approaching 24 seconds. Griffin at the top of the arc took the ball to respond. Li Ze faced James' defense. When he moved up the line, he suddenly ran back. To pass the ball, then take the ball and throw it!
"Buzz!"
"Shh!"
When 24 seconds are up, the three-pointer goes into the net!
James above calmed down completely, watching Li Ze start to shake his head and retreat again, but he knew in his heart that it would be difficult for him to keep up with Li Ze's rhythm after gaining weight.
The fans at the scene began to cheer loudly again, and Steve Ballmer under the basketball stand also yelled and applauded continuously. Considering the undefeated home game, the old man thought he had become the lucky star of the Clippers!
此时全场比赛还2分12秒,82:95,快船队依然领先着13分。
Everyone in the Heat team was a little frustrated. They managed to catch up to 10 points, and a three-pointer turned into 13 points.
Coach Spoelstra didn't give up until the last moment. The coaching staff really didn't want to play G1 with a big score of 2:4 behind.
But with Li Ze and Paul desperately pressing the time, the Heat failed to find any opportunities.
In the end, 89:100, the Clippers successfully won the game, and the big score in the series also came to 2:1.
When the final buzzer sounded, LeBron James said nothing, ripped off the headband and armguard, simply shook hands with the Clippers, and then quickly returned to the player channel.
Chris Paul was in a good mood, smiling after winning the game, so he didn't care that Wade and James punched him hard in these two games, and he was even in the mood to ask Wade for a simple greeting.
ESPN sideline reporter Doris Burke waited for Li Ze's arrival with a smile on her face. Seeing Steve Ballmer pulling Li Ze to wave to the audience, she could only whisper to the staff around her:
"The president of Microsoft may really plan to build another arena. In a few years, we will change the venue when we interview."
"Building an arena costs a lot of money"
In the middle of the staff's speech, he noticed the eyes of everyone around him, and suddenly thought that the old man seemed to have no shortage of beautiful knives.
After Li Ze gave his jersey to an enthusiastic little fan, he quickly came to the sidelines and accepted an interview with Doris Burke:
"Congratulations! Kayce, 45 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists. In the history of the finals, you are the first player to achieve a 1-point triple-double. Can you talk about your feelings?"
Li Ze, who was wearing a black bodysuit, looked particularly strong, and when he heard such a question, he just smiled and replied:
"It's just a small record in my opinion!"
"I don't care about the data. I can get a triple-double thanks to my teammates. Andrew keeps getting stuck, and our outside line keeps responding!"
"Of course, I am really excited to be a part of history, but for me, the most important thing is that we won G3 tonight!"
The staff of ESPN were speechless when they heard Li Ze's answer, and this X was really powerless to refute.
"."
The game on the night of the 11th had just ended, and the sports media of America turned their backs collectively and started shouting loudly:
"Clippers Championship!"
LeBron James' triple-double record in the finals only lasted for one day, and it was overshadowed by Li Ze's triple-double record in the finals.
TNT does not have the rights to broadcast the finals, but the game has just ended, and the group of 4 people started their comments again:
“25中15,其中三分球9中5,罚球10中10,45分12篮板10助攻2抢断2失误,谁能告诉我,热火队是怎么防守Kayce的吗?”
Charles Barkley's eyes widened, and he shouted in a tone of disbelief.
"They did try their best, buddy! Of course, LeBron James shouldn't choose single defense in individual possessions. Maybe he can guard most players in the league, but he can't limit Kayce. He spent too much on the defensive end tonight. energy."
O'Neal was still standing for LeBron James, but Kenny Smith on the side immediately took over:
“25中9,其中三分球7中2,罚球8中6,26分11篮板7助攻2抢断2失误,我认为勒布朗应该调整他的进攻模式,他可以尝试更多的中距离。”
Host Ernie Johnson shifted the topic to Wade and Bosh:
"The Heat should not blame LeBron James for the loss. Wade went 15 of 7 and scored 16 points. Bosh scored 10 of 4 and scored 12 points and 10 rebounds. I think they have to improve their performance. It's hard for Brown to win alone!"
"But if you're the leader of the team and your teammates don't feel good, you need to stand up and score. Kayce does a better job of this!"
"Of course, Chris Paul is also worthy of praise. He successfully digested some possessions, 17 of 8, including 3 of 1 three-pointers, 6 of 4 free throws, 21 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 1 turnover. Perhaps, We all underestimated the Clippers' backcourt."
Charles Barkley seemed to be turning into a fool. Just after he finished speaking, all three looked at him with a smile:
"So, have you changed your mind again and started supporting the Clippers?"
"Hey! I've always been a fan of Kayce, I follow him on Twitter, I love watching him play! Of course I will support the Clippers!"
"."
It is not easy to score 40+ points in the finals.
After all, this record itself has a huge difficulty, the players have to reach the finals first.
Except for the cheating Jerry West who played 10+ performances 40 times in the finals.
Stronger than Michael Jordan, 6 finals, and only 6 40+ points.
Therefore, this is also an achievement that easily arouses envy and hatred. However, when Li Ze got a triple-double of 40+, the NBA still specially released a poster on INS:
"Witness the greatness! The only one in history! (Crown.jpg)"
The grasshoppers seem to have forgotten the triple-double data of LeBron James in the last game overnight. The loser is indeed easier to be ignored.
On the morning of the 12th, in the Heat's video class, everyone watched in silence as Li Ze switched freely between with and without the ball. His flexible movement and quick delivery of the ball made double-teaming come back without success.
In most rounds, Chris Paul is used as the node and Griffin is used as the second point. The tactics are not complicated. Paul cannot catch the ball, and Griffin will do hand-offs after receiving.
Even in individual rounds, Ray Allen is also a point of contact, the veteran can also break through with the ball
"We should change the direction of offense. There is no problem with defense. I need more ball or low attack. I can handle that Andrew Jordan who only knows how to jump!"
Chris Bosh is a little dissatisfied with the team's positioning of him. He feels that what Duncan can do at the age of 37, he can also do.
"We need you to protect the rebounds. At 36:44, we had 8 fewer rebounds than the opponent. In a game, the opponent grabbed 11 offensive rebounds. It is basically impossible to win!"
LeBron James is also dissatisfied with the team's inside line. In order to protect the backcourt rebounds, he has consumed a lot of physical energy, which has affected his offense.
Wade noticed that the two were staring at each other, and immediately said loudly:
"Hey! We're gonna win! Relax, win a road game and we'll be back in Miami!"
"Low post offense is a good idea. We all have to take responsibility for rebounding. The coaching staff will solve these problems!"
Two consecutive years of failure, coupled with this year's loss of home court, has caused some contradictions in the Heat team.
Without victory, no one is willing to be a green leaf!
Bosh has played farther and farther this season, and his statistics have been declining year by year. The sacrifices have not been rewarded, and the dissatisfaction in his heart has reached the limit.
In the first year of cooperation between the Big Three, even though he lost, he still averaged 1 points per game in the playoffs. In the second year, the data dropped, and only 18.6 points were recorded. Both are getting harder
Head coach Spoelstra is also having a headache for a while, leaving too little time for the Heat to adjust, but if there is another infighting in the team at this time, the game will be completely gone:
"We have to believe in each other! Don't forget that there are still four games in the series, and we still have two home games, cheer up, We are family!"
LeBron James was sullen and didn't say a word. He had already given his all to gain weight and hit the 4th position!
He didn't like how the Heat positioned him. Pat Riley lied to him and he failed to be a magician.
The atmosphere team of the Heat didn't dare to speak out. No one likes to lose. If they continue to lose, then maybe the team is really over.
Compared with the Heat team that is about to be infighting, Chris Paul is full of motivation on the Clippers side, and even feels that he is full of energy!
Without him, as long as they win G4 and the score reaches 3:1, there will be no suspense in the series.
As of 2013, in the finals, no team can complete a counterattack when it is 1:3 behind.
Maybe there is only one game away from the championship. Thinking of this, Paul almost lost sleep last night.
Looking back at the game video and completing the recovery training step by step, the Clippers almost turned down all the interviews. As long as they win the championship, they will be the focus of the league throughout the offseason!
Li Ze still completed his three-point shooting training as planned, physical fitness is not a problem for him, and after last night's game, he received two more purple badges.
Achievement Badge [Back to the King]: (can be merged)
Improve the ability to make post-back fadeaway jump shots, improve the stability of the shot, and reduce the impact of frontal defenders.
Achievement badge [emergency stop three-point turret]: (can be merged)
Enhance the three-point shooting rate after dribbling on the spot, improve the stability of shots, and reduce the influence of frontal defenders.
Although Li Ze did not increase his three-point shooting this season, he reached the finals and upgraded a three-point badge to purple by relying on the number of games.
Continuous crotch dribbles, the body swayed according to the rhythm, and the retreat was easily completed, and finally hit the shot, a set of movements was smooth and smooth.
Everyone in the Clippers couldn't help sighing when they saw the training stick raised by trainer Tony and failed to have any impact on Li Ze:
"Golden thighs are really powerful"
Jamal Crawford performed well in G3, 10 of 5, including 6 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 14 points. However, the head coach De Nagro did not dare to use this super sixth man too much. It's a bit of a stretch indeed.
However, the team won and reached the finals, which also made the veteran Crawford calm, and playing time must be won by performance.
The head coach Gnagro does not rely on player relationships like traditional black coaches, which also makes the Clippers have few conflicts in the locker room. If you want to win trust, you have to show your performance.
"We can add some breakthroughs. When we return to the home court, the referee will be biased. If LeBron can get the 4th foul early, the game will be much easier to play!"
Paul is still communicating with the assistant coach. If he wants to increase the breakthrough, sometimes he needs to let the big man leave the paint area. This is also a double-edged sword. In the end, the assistant coach just nodded:
"We'll have to see what the scale is for tomorrow night, but it's a really good idea."
Griffin on the side was a little depressed when he heard Paul's words. The offensive end of the finals was basically soy sauce.
He did get a lot of opportunities, but every time he received the ball at the free throw line, the opponent let him go two steps away. Facing a huge open space, he didn't dare to shoot, which made Griffin a little embarrassed.
After finishing the training, Li Ze saw that Griffin was not in a good mood, patted him on the shoulder, and then consulted the team doctor:
"How's Blake doing?"
"The G3 game made his injury worse. For health reasons, maybe we should reduce our playing time, but there are still 4 games in the series. Perhaps it will be difficult for Blake to persist until the end."
Griffin just wanted to make a tough statement, but Li Ze said with a smile:
"Win G4 and end the series in one breath, Blake will fight to the end!"
Everyone in the Clippers also heard Li Ze's words, and the atmosphere group cheered immediately:
"Yes, Kayce will end the series at home, we will win the championship!"
"Wow!"
After resting for more than a day, on the night of the 13th, the Staples Arena was full. The G4 game was extremely important to both sides, and the fans were also happy to see the scene of sparks hitting the earth.
As the DJ on the scene introduced the Heat players, there were bursts of boos in the Staples Arena. After all the Heat players appeared on the field, they formed a circle again. Wade stood in the middle and shouted loudly:
"Trust each other! Be patient! We are fighting!"
At this time, the Clippers' short video began to be played on the scene. The wonderful playoff scenes made the atmosphere even hotter. With Li Ze's appearance, the fans began to scream.
When the lights came on again, the fiery atmosphere gradually subsided. In the commentary seat of ESPN, Jeff Van Gundy said in an exclamation tone:
"In such an important game, coach Spoelstra adjusted the starting lineup!"
"Chalmers and Wade will play in the backcourt, Mike Miller will start on the front line, LeBron James will play at the 4th position, and Chris Bosh will be at the 5th position."
"With this lineup, the Heat have a lot of rebounding pressure, but obviously coach Spoelstra wants to open up the situation on the offensive end. I have to say that this is a bold change."
The commentator Mike Brin also briefly introduced the Clippers' starting lineup, and then followed up with questions:
"The Clippers continued the lineup from the previous game, and Ray Allen still started. Jeff, who do you think the Heat will use to defend Kayce?"
"Considering that the Heat need to protect rebounds, perhaps in this game, Wade will defend in front of Kayce."
In the last game, Mike Miller scored 5 of 5 from beyond the three-point line. This performance has won the trust of coach Spoelstra!
As the referee threw the ball high, Jordan easily jumped to the ball for the Clippers. The DJ on the scene began to lead the audience to shout in unison:
"Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers!"
Chris Paul, who had just passed halftime, was surprised to find that Mike Miller was facing Li Ze. He immediately waved to the Clippers. At the three-point line, ask for the ball sideways.
At the moment of receiving the pass, Li Ze took advantage of the situation to lower the center of gravity of his body, swayed left and right, and while releasing the ball with his right hand, he only dribbled one step. Taking advantage of the moment when Mike Miller slid to the left, he quickly retreated. Drift the three-point jump shot!
"OH! That's good!"
Hearing the cheers from the scene, the commentator Mike Breen froze for a moment before raising the volume of the commentary slightly.
Li Ze's offense was too fast, he swayed away from the defense and threw it directly, and as a result, he drifted and hit the shot.
Mike Miller's defense is just a paper tiger, and Li Ze didn't expect the Heat to adopt such a matchup.
The head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines was also taken aback. He wanted to try it out, but the Clippers' attack took less than 8 seconds, and he was asked to make an adjustment gesture immediately.
In such an important game, Li Ze defended LeBron James from the beginning, the Clippers still stood around the paint area, and the Heat had huge shooting space outside.
The first offense hit a three-pointer, and the fans on the scene were even more excited. After Chalmers dribbled through halftime, the scene soon sounded defensive cheers:
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
Wade on the left wing received the ball, Ray Allen's defense was still within the three-point line, noticed that Bosh came to the left elbow of the free throw line to perform a pick-and-roll, Ray Allen immediately went off the line to block the left hand Wade with the ball.
However, Wade did not choose to attack, but immediately distributed the ball to Bosh who bounced outside. Before Jordan could make a defense, Bosh easily hit two points at the top of the arc!
After the goal, Bosh immediately celebrated with his fists, not paying attention to the boos coming from his ears.
Paul, who quickly sent the baseline ball and dribbled across the half court, noticed that Wade was facing Li Ze again. Chalmers' constant harassment did not interfere with Paul's dribbling.
First, he directed Griffin to the free throw line, and then immediately moved quickly to the left flank. Li Ze just stuck Wade behind him in the left block position, and Paul quickly sent a through ball.
At the moment of receiving the ball, Li Ze released the ball with his right hand, and then slammed into Wade behind him with force. After a hit, his right hand pulled the ball back sharply, and then quickly twisted his body forward, ignoring Wade's block. Mid-range fadeaway shot!
"Shua!" The two-pointer was hit steadily!
Wade became more and more depressed. The difference in height, coupled with the large receding position, as long as the hand feels good, he can only watch Li Ze score easily.
On the sidelines, the head coach De Nagro clapped his hands, and then sat on the bench confidently. Although he didn't know why LeBron James didn't choose to double-team the defense, if it was a single defense, he was confident that he could shoot with his golden thighs. die each other.
In the next few rounds, Li Ze quickly discovered that LeBron James changed his offensive mode, pick-and-roll outside the three-point line, pick-and-roll at the left and right elbows, or bounce outside, or slide down to the left and right sides near the baseline.
Both mid-range hits made Li Ze startled.
LeBron James received the ball from the right flank, against Li Ze's defense, attracted Griffin, broke through and scored the ball, and assisted Mike Miller in the right corner to hit a three-pointer;
In the next round, Chris Paul encountered Mike Miller's double-team, accurately found Ray Allen on the right wing, and responded with a three-pointer.
The hit rate of both sides was extremely high, and the continuous response to the ball made the fans on the scene hooked.
After Chris Paul used Jordan's pick-and-roll to get rid of Chalmers, and changed direction in front of his body to meet Bosh and scored a mid-range mid-range, the game entered the official timeout in the first quarter.
At this time, the score was 16:16, with 6 minutes and 02 seconds left in the first quarter.
"Coach Spoelstra has reduced the consumption of LeBron James on the defensive end, and the tactics of one big and four small are very successful so far."
Jeff Van Gundy saw that the Heat's changes were good, and immediately praised Spoelstra for his bold use of people.
At this time, the Clippers were on the bench, and Griffin was a little depressed. The Heat's continuous breakthroughs and points would interrupt the Clippers' defensive formation, and Mike Miller had been staying outside the three-point line, which also made him The defense is very uncomfortable.
"PJ, I need you to keep an eye on the opposing player after you come on the court, pay attention, you don't need to help defend James."
"Kayce, in the second half of the quarter, you are responsible for defending the opponent alone. Guys, be faster on the defensive end! Respond to each other and take turns!"
Hearing the words of head coach De Nagro, Li Ze nodded immediately, while Tucker on the other side moved his body excitedly. This was his first appearance in the finals.
Chris Paul didn't know the Heat's strategy either. Without James' massive defensive double-teaming, relying on Mike Miller, the defensive intensity plummeted.
"Fight to attack?"
Paul thought of this, and noticed that Li Ze was not sweating, and suddenly felt a lot more at ease.
Back from the timeout, the Heat replaced Battier and Mike Miller, and continued to maintain the 5-out lineup.
When it was time to attack, James saw the Clippers' smaller lineup, received the ball from the left flank, and immediately broke through, carrying Li Ze to the basket.
Approaching the paint area, he soared into the air, and Li Ze followed suit.
After the two confronted each other in the air, Li Ze found that James' jumping height was extremely high, and he seemed to want to make a dunk without giving the opponent a chance to dunk. Li Ze cut to the opponent's hand and directly destroyed the dunk.
"squeak!"
The referee immediately blew his whistle, indicating that Li Ze was fouled by the thug, and James got two free throws.
James stood on the free throw line calmly, but Li Ze complained silently in his heart:
"Substitution is a bit passive, Spoelstra does have two brushes."
