NBA Old Age Star System

Chapter 404 Jimmy, I have seen through you!
With Su Tian in charge, there is no need to worry about the Heat's counterattack, but it is impossible to achieve the appearance of "Full Su".

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers had opened up the score again, and the point difference came to 8 points.

However, the price the Lakers paid was the excessive physical exertion of the main players, especially the thick eyebrows.

But of course, the Heat's consumption will only be more.

Taking advantage of the halftime break, Spoelstra made tactical adjustments.

"Everyone, please pay attention. In the second quarter, the main players of the Lakers obviously played more minutes than usual. There will definitely be a period of weakness in the second half! This period is our opportunity! We must seize it!"

"Jimmy, you need to rest for a while in the second half. You have exhausted too much energy. I will let you play based on the time."

At this time, the panting Butler still stubbornly wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Spoelstra.

"Jimmy, I understand how you want to play, but in your current state, it will be very difficult to deal with Su."

Butler obviously knew this and understood his true situation. He hesitated and then said: "Okay coach, I will rest first, but you must let me play as soon as possible."

Si Bo nodded: "Don't worry, you are our core!"

Soon, the halftime break ended, the two sides took the field again, and the second half began.

Although the Heat did not let Butler play, the others were all main players.

There was no change on the Lakers' side, and they still chose the starting lineup.

"Have the Heat changed their formation? Does Coach Spoelstra have any good solutions?" Kenny Smith asked doubtfully.

"I don't think so. It's because Butler's consumption is too great, and Spoelstra can only make such adjustments." Barkley said.

"But with this adjustment, can the Heat withstand the Lakers' impact?"

"Disaster."

The first possession of the ball in the third quarter was given to the Heat. Vincent came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Brunson's defensive choice, he called Adebayor to step forward and cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

Vincent used the pick-and-roll to directly initiate a breakthrough. Brunson wanted to turn around and chase, but was blocked by Adebayor's body.

Vincent carried the ball all the way to the basket, met McGee's help in defense, and there was a thick eyebrow watching eagerly, so he passed the ball back to Adebayor who had moved near the free throw line.

Adebayor took the ball and shot directly.

At the same time as the shot was taken, George's help arrived on time, but at this time Adebayor had no choice. He had no choice but to shoot against the defense.

boom--

Basketball is playing iron, thick eyebrows turned around to collect the basket, and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian received the ball, turned around and launched a fast break.

Dragic, who was responsible for defending Su Tian, ​​turned around and chased, but could not catch up with Su Tian. Su Tian came to the basket in the front court, saw the right moment and dunked with both hands.

"Look, look, without Butler, no one can stop Su's performance!"

"Butler may not be able to stop it if he plays, but at least it should be much better than it is now."

"What is Spoelstra doing? Why don't you get Butler quickly?"

"Without Butler, the Heat will be gone."

Su Tian's dunk directly ignited the scene, and there was endless discussion at the scene, and some even laughed at Butler for being too timid to play.

Butler will naturally not be affected by these words, but it is inevitable that the point difference will reach double digits.

After two more rounds, the point difference stabilized at around 13 points. Walton took advantage of the dead ball to win the game, allowing him to rest a few minutes in advance.

On the other side, Spoelstra saw Thick Eyebrow coming off the field, turned around and immediately picked up Butler.

"Jimmy, here's your chance! Listen carefully, you won't have any rest time! You must plan your physical strength and don't get in trouble!"

Before Butler came on the court, Spoelstra muttered a lot in Butler's ear. Butler naturally nodded in agreement, but I don't know if he still abided by it after he came on the court.

After the Heat adjusted, Butler naturally came to Su Tian. Su Tian just turned his head and glanced without saying any more trash talk, because the protagonist of the team at this time was not himself.

Just after the Lakers led by double digits, Su Tian gave the responsibility of the team's main attacker to Paul George.

At this time, Butler took the initiative to defend Su Tian, ​​but instead avoided the Lakers' main offensive point.

At this time, the Lakers had the ball, and Su Tian advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. As soon as Su Tian reached the three-point line with the ball, Butler impatiently defended him.

There is no doubt about Butler's defensive strength. Even if Su Tian faces Butler who wants to defend, it will take a lot of effort to succeed in singles.

But it is a pity that Su Tian is not the main offensive point at this time, but just a defensive attraction point.

Su Tian first made a continuous cross dribble, and then a sudden burst broke through from the right side. Butler was not aware of it and could not keep up, so Adebayor on the inside hurriedly stepped forward to help defend against the double team.

Just after Adebayor came out of the paint, Su Tian passed the ball directly to the basket. At this time, George, who was cutting in the air, just caught the ball and went straight for a layup.

George, who succeeded, found Su Tian and gave him a high-five to celebrate.

"Beautiful! The coordination between Su and George is really beautiful. It's like they have a clear understanding of each other." Buckley couldn't help but sigh.

The ball is switched, and it's the Heat's turn to attack.

Dragic came to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Butler. Naturally, Su Tian was responsible for defending Butler.

Butler first called Adebayor to step forward to pick and roll, then changed direction and broke through inside.

Su Tian quickly turned around, bypassed the pick-and-roll, and caught up with Butler again, but Butler had already started to speed up. Su Tian failed to intercept and could only follow Butler all the way to the basket.

The two came to the basket while fighting. Butler tried hard to push away Su Tian's defense, but Su Tian was prepared and Butler failed.

But at this time Butler has collected the ball and can only force a shot or pass the ball.

Butler hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and prepared to take action forcefully.

However, under Su Tian's overwhelming defense, Butler's forced shot was in vain.

boom--

Basketball strikes, Su Tian turns around and gets stuck in position, easily collecting the rebound.

After Su Tian collected the rebound, he turned around and launched a fast break, using all his speed to run at the front of the team.

Butler hurriedly caught up, and at the same time Dragic from outside the three-point line also rushed to help defend and double-team, trying to delay Su Tian's progress.

But who knew that Su Tian was not greedy for the ball at all, but passed the ball forward directly. Brunson, who was making a fast break in front, easily received the ball and went straight to the basket for a layup.

"Well, since the two people made substitutions and adjustments, the Lakers have succeeded continuously. What are the Heat doing? Could it be that the Heat have failed to adjust?" Barkley said doubtfully.

"I think this may be because the Heat's tactics haven't been implemented yet." Kenny Smith said uncertainly.

"But, this point difference is about to reach 20 points?"

"I'm not sure about this."

In the next few rounds, Butler wanted to score quickly, but due to Su Tian's defense, the point difference between the two teams could not be narrowed.

But within a few rounds, Su Tian was replaced after half way through the third quarter.

At this time, the ball was given to George, and the opportunity Butler had been waiting for finally came.However, the point difference has reached 18 points at this time, and it is basically impossible for Butler to catch up in the rest of the third quarter.

Su Tian sat on the bench off the court, quickly recovering his strength while observing the game on the court.

The performance on the court was indeed as Su Tian expected. Butler had worked very hard, but the point difference on the court did not change much.

After the third quarter, the point difference was still 14 points.

George played the entire third quarter and was so tired when he came off the court that he sat on the bench panting.

"Su, I have tried my best, the rest is up to you."

"Don't worry, man, victory belongs to us in the end."

At this time, on the Heat's side, Butler had an unhappy expression on his face, and the people around him didn't dare to step forward and touch this bad luck.

Only Spoelstra stepped forward, took the tactical board, and began to arrange the tactics for the fourth quarter.

"Okay guys, we're already 14 points behind! Everyone's performance in the third quarter was good, but it's not good enough! We have to catch up in the fourth quarter!"

Immediately afterwards, Spoelstra began to write and draw on the tactical board, while also explaining the tactical layout.

The inter-section break ended quickly and the fourth quarter began.

In the fourth quarter for the Lakers, Su Tian and Nongmei, who had finished their rest, naturally led the team.

The Heat seemed to be very generous and still took the entire main lineup without hesitation.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Lakers. Caruso advanced to the frontcourt with the ball and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian got the ball and did not rush to attack. He first tested Butler's defensive focus with three threats.

Su Tian originally thought Butler would retreat, but he didn't expect Butler to directly step forward and defend tightly!

So Su Tian quickly turned around, dribbled with his back to open up a gap, and then turned around again to break through.

But as soon as Su Tian took two steps forward, he was double-teamed by Adebayor.

"The Heat's double teams came up so fast in the fourth quarter!" Su Tian thought to himself.

At this time, Su Tian kept moving his hands and passed the ball directly to the thick eyebrow that was missed by Adebayor.

At this time, Nongmei was in the middle distance on the left side, catching the ball and shooting directly.

In fact, according to normal times, this is not a hot spot for thick eyebrows, but with the blessing of Su Tian's passing, thick eyebrows are also more confident.

Swah——

The shot hit directly and steadily.

The point difference widened to 16 points!
"The Lakers made a direct hit as soon as the fourth quarter started. It seems that Davis' condition has been adjusted very well!" Barkley said.

The ball was transferred, and Butler advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

After facing Su Tian's defense, Butler made a gesture of trying to force a breakthrough. Su Tian immediately pressed forward, trying to force Butler to make a mistake.

But Butler immediately changed his route and ran to the right.

Su Tian pressed forward step by step, but he ran into Adebayor's screen without taking two steps.

Butler took the opportunity to break through with the ball. At this time, Su Tian had to switch defenses with Nongmei, withstanding Adebayor's body that wanted to go down.

At this time, Butler has already reached the inside with the ball, and the thick eyebrows are also ready to defend and block shots.

But just when everyone thought the two would have a "close contact", Butler passed a pass to Hiro in the bottom corner.

Hiero happened to come out with the help of his teammates' pick-and-roll at this time, received the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

Swah——

The basketball hits directly.

"This, is this the Heat's arrangement? Is this the Heat's hidden killer move? Hiero?" Barkley asked several questions in a row, fully expressing his disbelief.

"This, maybe, but at least in this round, the effect is good." Kenny Smith responded.

At this time, the point difference has also reached 13 points, and it seems that the Heat have a strong momentum to chase points.

The Lakers attacked again. This time it was Su Tian who held the ball against Butler, but the Heat double-teamed him in advance. Su Tian didn't think much and passed the ball directly to Nunn who was left open outside the three-point line.

Nunn took the ball and shot a three-pointer directly.

boom--

Nunn felt bad and hit a three-pointer.

Adebayor collected the rebound and passed the ball to Dragic.

Dragic caught the ball and turned around to start fast break mode.

Su Tian wanted to chase, but Butler secretly pulled his jersey, causing him to be a step slower. Dragic took the lead and came to the frontcourt and succeeded in a layup.

The difference is 11 points.

"Here, first Herro, then Dragic, who is the strategic focus of Spoelstra's arrangement?" Barkley obviously did not understand Spoelstra's arrangement.

At this time, the footage of the scene also happened to show Spo.

I saw Spoelstra with his arms folded and his face expressionless, standing on the sidelines observing the game, and there was no trace of Spo's emotions.

The Heat succeeded in two consecutive rounds, and the point difference was almost back to single digits. Su Tian frowned and involuntarily started to become more serious.

To be honest, the Lakers have been too smooth this season, and Su Tian hasn't had this sense of urgency for a long time.

Su Tian came to the frontcourt with the ball again and faced Butler again.

This time, before the Heat could double-team, Su Tian directly called on his thick eyebrows to step forward to cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

The thick eyebrow didn't hesitate when he saw this, and immediately got up and stepped forward to cover.

Su Tian used the cover of thick eyebrows to break through with the ball. As expected, he directly attracted double-teams from Butler and Adebayor.

So Su Tian did not hesitate to pass the ball to Nongmei who was following the pass. Nongmei caught the ball. At this time, the basket was very empty and empty, so Nongmei dunked directly.

The score difference returned to 13 points, and the situation was stabilized.

Turning around, Butler once again attacked with the ball. This time Butler still used tactical coordination to pass the ball to his teammates outside the three-point line.

It's just that this time Hiro, who caught the ball, failed to hit a three-pointer.

Su Tian collected the rebound and directly counterattacked with a fast break.

The point difference came to 15 points.

When Butler came to the frontcourt with the ball again, Su Tian looked at Butler and said with a smile.

"Jimmy, Miami has no tactics anymore. These are just your tricks. In fact, you have been betting. Jimmy, I have seen through you."
