I really just want to be a role player

Chapter 122 Your family must be very smart!

June 1, American Airlines Center Arena.

As night fell, the Heat's home court ushered in a door-to-door challenge from the Sonics.

During the warm-up, Walker and Ray Allen said hello. Both of them are representatives of the 96 golden generation.

Jason Williams, who just came back, also chatted with Lewis for a few cents.

In the 98 draft, when he was 18 that year, Lewis sat like a minion. He didn't expect to counterattack all the way and become the second leader of the Sonics.

Wade, Luke Crednor, and Nick Collison also had a face-to-face meeting, both from the 03 Platinum generation.

Back then, when Neil Collison was in college, he also invited Wade to suffer a 33-point NCAA history fiasco.

Entering the NBA league, the situation of the two is the same as the sky and the same place.

Only Su Bei was quiet, quietly warming up and shooting.

The Sonics started, Johan Petrol, Vladimir Radmanovic, Lewis, Ray Allen, Lucidno.

Heat starting 5 people, O'Neal, Haslem, Posey, Subei, Wade.

Jason Williams returned from injury and had to play a game or two off the bench to adjust.

Su Bei also continued to get the chance to start.

The game is on

beep-!
The whistle sounded, and O'Neal beat Johan Petrol to get the first attack for the Heat.

"Wade took the ball to the frontcourt, he broke through, broke through Luc Crednour's defense, rushed to the penalty area, faced Radmanovich's block, it was a split dunk, and the Heat led the way. Choose to open the scoring account..."

0 to 2! !
Lei Allen stood in front of Su Bei, with a sword hanging beside him, so naturally he couldn't move around, and there was no room for him to move.

Going back to the defensive round, Su Bei put it on like a dog's skin plaster, and did not let Ray Allen catch the ball easily. The script that Su Bei got before the game was to consume Ray Allen's physical energy, so he kept going around to block, Ray A If Lun wanted to catch the ball, he had to bypass it, or stay away from Subei's entanglement.

"Ray Allen and Lewis, the two played a screen tactic, Subei and Posey switched defenses, Ray Allen threw off Subei, faced Luc Credno, received the ball, turned around, barely adjusted, raised his hand three times Split fadeaway jumper shot..."

Posey switched defenses very quickly, but he was still somewhat slow. He tried his best to defend, but it became the background board.

Swish-!
3 to 2! !
"Ray Allen's outside line is open, next, how does the Heat's offense play?

Wade lobs to O'Neal, bam——!
Breaking through the defense, turning around, ignoring the Sonics' double attack, there was a bang, and the whole body was hung on the basket.

The difference between the inside of the two teams is visible to the naked eye. The inside of the Supersonics ranks in the top three in the league, and the bottom one.

George Petrol is only a rookie, and he is going to play against No. [-] center O'Neal, which is no different from courting death..."

court death?

This is a bit too much.

The Sonics never relied on defense to win, and they looked down on George Petrol's weak scoring offensively. They relied on the explosive shooting touch of outside stars to take away opponents in waves.

But after all, he is not stable in shooting. It’s okay to make a hit. If he misses the shot, he still needs Johan Petrol, who is so clever, to take advantage of his height to grab the rebound and attack again.

Even if it's just making up numbers, you can't say something so ugly as "court death"!

Good guy!
At most, they only exposed the problem of that person's defense, and you also caught up with the offensive revelations. The one who is close to the ink is black, and your family should be quite smart, right?

how do you know?
"On the field, the Sonics attacked. Johan Petrol did not enter the penalty area. He gave Ray Allen a cover on the outside. Su Bei quickly circled forward and did not miss Ray Allen. Qi evacuated again...

Both Haslem and O'Neal are a little uncomfortable. The Sonics are running from the inside to the outside. How can they defend? "

Bang-!
Su Bei dodged Johan Petrol's cover, but he couldn't escape the fifth day of the new year, bah, it was Radmanovich's cover.

No matter how strong Su Bei's defensive ability is, he couldn't stand up to the outside shooters continuously. After all, they didn't learn Curry's "elevator door" cover. Otherwise, it would be even more difficult for the Heat to defend.

"Ray Allen throws off Su Bei, catches the basketball, takes a look, Posey jumps over to change defense, smack...

Ray Allen hit the ground and passed the ball, the basketball flew into Lewis' hands, caught the ball, jumped up, stayed in the air, raised his hand and shot a three-pointer..."

Swish-!
6 to 4! !
Lewis made a precise three-pointer.

Off the court, Riley's face was very calm. After only playing a few rounds, he felt that the basketball of the Sonics would not be the opponent of the Heat.

The closer to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage. This is an undeniable truth in the league.

If you get rebounds, you can win championships. This is also the truth he realized during his time with the Knicks.

The Sonics' style of play violates both truths. This kind of basketball cannot possibly threaten the Heat.

Bang-dang-!
On the court, the Heat attacked, and O'Neal hit Johan Petrol with his back. After attracting the pincers, Posey cut into the inside line, received a pass from O'Neal, and easily faced the empty basket.

The basket was bombed.

After the first few possessions, the Heat's defensive formation shrunk to hold the rim tightly.

Make targeted defenses on outside shots.

To put it bluntly, everyone else can let it go. Ray Allen and Lewis received the ball and threw it out as much as possible to interfere.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't defend. The game is still long, and the Sonics' shooting touch is unlikely to last.

Whoever said this is what I said.

3 minutes passed.

Bang-dang-!
Ray Allen's three-pointer was the first to miss.

After Su Bei successfully interfered, he quickly threw himself into a quick counter attack, received a pass from Wade, and scored two points steadily with a hard dunk.

When Curry counterattacked, why he slipped and fell is because dunking is the most stable way to score.

The slip is just an accident, not a dunk.

Subsequently, Lewis's shot also went out of the basket.

The rebound was taken by the Heat again, and it didn't make a counterattack. It didn't matter. He continued to lob the ball to O'Neal to attack the basket and was blocked in the penalty area. It didn't matter. The ball was passed and Wade continued to break into the basket.

This style of play makes the Sonics very uncomfortable. It is like a pick-and-roll tactic. You are always called on to single out, and your flaws are always attacked. It is not easy to change anyone.

Weak insiders, Radmanovic and Lewis are not basket-protecting insiders, and only one rookie, Johan Petrol, can't stand it.

"The Sonics team is very strange. The inside players almost tried to change one in three games, but they couldn't support the Sonics inside."

This kind of weak style of play floating on the outside line is doomed to have no future.

Last season's Supersonics team, Lewis and Ray Allen, two All-Star shooters, led the Supersonics to become the league's dark horse team with their superb shooting skills, and once competed with the Spurs and Suns for the All-Star team The league's first place in the regular season.

At that time, the Sonics’ shooting was really unreasonable. In addition, Radmanovic was also a player who evacuated and shot inside. Many teams thought that the Sonics could not shoot dead by relying on outside shots. As a result, many strong teams were beaten in the face.

The Sonics' shooting tactics can really kill the game.

If Lewis and Ray Allen were assisted by the tactical system of the Warriors in 2014, the "Splash Brothers" would have nothing to do with Curry and Thompson.

However, there is no what-if in this world. After last season’s playoffs, the Supersonics were eliminated in the first round, and their self-confident soul was also destroyed. Their internal strength was poor, and their outside line encountered an increase in defensive strength. The game lost. to a life of doubt.

The Supersonic team's winning tactics are also getting more and more uncertain as they play. It feels that when the opponent is serious about defending, their basketball is useless.

The shooting touch is not on the line, the offense is banging and banging, and the defense is unable to protect the basket, and it is banging and dunking. The rhythm of the game is completely on the side of the Heat.

It became completely impossible for the Sonics to drag the offensive rhythm into the shooting.

After the first quarter, the score was 29 to 25, and the Heat only took a 4-point lead.

The Sonics have a three-point shot, and the Heat only need two points. To be honest, it is really not easy to widen the score gap, even if the Heat have the upper hand in the rhythm of the game.
