NBA Old Age Star System

At the beginning of the second half of the game, both sides took on the starting lineup.

In the first half, he committed two fouls, which were not particularly serious. In the second half, as long as he pays attention, he can still survive until the end of the game.

But he never expected that at the beginning of the third quarter, Nongmei was called for a foul again. Nongmei shook his head with a helpless expression.

But at this time, Walton did not replace the thick eyebrow, but let the thick eyebrow continue to be present.

The thick eyebrows who continued to play did not live up to Walton's trust, causing continuous interference on the defensive end and putting the Heat's offense into an extremely difficult situation.

The point difference between the two teams quickly reached double digits, and it is still expanding.

Before half the time in the third quarter, the point difference had reached 16 points, and the Heat called a timeout.

"Jimmy, you have to find ways to score on the offensive end instead of getting stuck in the quagmire of fighting with Sue and trying to get rid of him!"

"Vincent, Nunn, you have to pay attention. When you break through, try to lean on Anthony Davis and cause him to foul. Don't avoid him."

Taking advantage of the timeout, Spoelstra adjusted the players' status and made some tactical changes in the hope of achieving some results.

But the real situation is not as simple as Spoelstra imagined.

The first is that Butler gets rid of Su Tian. Butler also wants to get rid of Su Tian's entanglement, but it can't be done if he wants to. Su Tian's defensive strength is stronger than Butler's. If he wants to get rid of Su Tian, God, it's hard for Butler to do it alone right now.

After the thick eyebrows experienced a series with the Warriors, they already have some experience in dealing with referees. Now if the referee wants to call thick eyebrows casually, it is no longer as easy as before.

The timeout soon ended and the game continued. After the timeout came back, Butler came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Su Tian's defense, Butler chose to pass the ball to his teammates, while he tried to get rid of the defense without the ball.

It is still more convenient to get rid of the defense without the ball than with the ball, and the entire Heat team is setting up pick-and-rolls and screens for Butler. After several interspersed runs, Butler finally got a chance, and Vincent quickly passed the ball. The ball is given.

Butler received the ball at the elbow and shot directly.

When the ball was released, Su Tian did not catch up in time, but Nongmei did.

But the shot still hit.

Swah——

Seeing Butler hit the shot, Spoelstra and some Heat fans on the sidelines also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just when they thought this was the Heat's clarion call for counterattack, they discovered that it was just a flash in the pan.

In the next few rounds, the Lakers began to show their strong offensive capabilities, and the point difference continued to widen.

Soon the score difference reached 20 points, and at this time, the third quarter was already halfway through, and the Heat called a timeout again.

"It's over. With a 20-point difference, the Heat have no chance."

"I unilaterally declare that the game is over and the Lakers have won!"

"Although there is still a full quarter and a half left in the game, sorry, the victory has already been won by the Lakers."

"The Lakers' offense is so terrible, the Heat can't stop it at all."

"Actually, compared to the defense, I feel that the Heat's offense has a big problem, and the main problem lies with Butler. Butler is unable to contribute the offensive level he had during the regular season."

"Harm, in fact, the Heat have a big and obvious gap with the Lakers in both offense and defense. This cannot be made up by one ball or two goals."

A timeout ended the second half of the third quarter and the game continued as fans discussed it.

At this time, both teams made substitution adjustments. Su Tianye and Nongmei on the Lakers side all took a rest, but Butler on the Heat side did not go off.

Obviously, Butler also wanted to take advantage of Su Tian's absence to catch up with the score and have a fun trip.

And after playing a few rounds, the effect is still very good.

Although Paul George's defense is not bad, it is still worse than Su Tian. Butler also took the opportunity to score a lot of points, and the point difference between the two teams began to narrow.

It's just that the 20-point difference is indeed too much. Even though Butler has put in all his efforts, he still failed to bring the point difference to single digits.

At the end of the third quarter, the score difference between the two teams reached 12 points.

"I have to say that Butler's performance in the second half was very good, showing the style of the Heat's star player." Barkley said.

"Yes, but this performance cannot last long, and it is now entering the fourth quarter. The Heat must find ways to limit Su's performance." Kenny Smith said.

At this time, Spoelstra was indeed worrying about how to better restrict Su Tian's performance.

"We should still follow the tactics we practiced before. We will double-team Su and not give him a chance to score. Then we cannot give him three-point opportunities. Give them the mid-range chance." Spoelstra said while writing and drawing on the tactical board. .

In fact, before the game started, the Heat had practiced defensive tactics for the fourth quarter, but at this time Spoelstra still felt that such a tactical arrangement was not safe.

Looking at the Lakers' bench, Walton's expression is much more relaxed. He has a double-digit lead and only committed three fouls. There is no doubt that the Lakers have an absolute advantage.

Soon the intersection ended and the fourth quarter began.

In the fourth quarter, the Lakers were naturally led by Su Tian and Nongmei, while the Heat were led by Butler and Adebayor.

The Heat's substitutes are actually very good. Oladipo and Hiero are on the field at this time.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Lakers. Su Tian took the ball to the frontcourt and faced Butler's defense.

Facing Butler's defense at this time, Su Tian seemed to be very comfortable. First, he made a large change of direction in front of his body to shake Butler's defensive focus.

Then there was an explosion to break through and attract Butler's defense. Finally, he stepped back to the three-point line and shot directly from the three-point line.

Su Tian's series of operations gave him enough space to take action, and Butler did not cause any effective interference at all.

Swah——

The three-pointer hit directly.

Su Tian didn't forget to talk trash even after hitting a three-pointer.

"Hey Jimmy, are you too old? Why can't you guard this ball?"

When Butler heard Su Tian's trash talk, he simply smiled and said, "You little kid must learn to respect your seniors."

The ball was transferred, and Butler took the ball and came to the frontcourt to face Su Tian's defense.

Su Tian just hit Butler in a single, so Butler also wanted to return a goal. But Butler's continuous cross-dribbles were unable to get rid of Su Tian's death entanglement. In desperation, Butler could only pass the ball to his teammates, while he ran without the ball.

With the cover and help of his teammates, Butler temporarily got rid of the defending Su Tian, ​​and immediately shot after receiving the pass from his teammates.

But in the fourth quarter, Su Tian has evolved. This ball successfully interfered with the basketball.

The thick eyebrow turned around to collect the rebound and immediately passed the ball to Su Tian.

Su Tian received the ball and went straight down for a fast break. Butler wanted to step forward and foul to block, but Su Tian was too fast and Butler did not catch it.

So Su Tian took the lead and ran at the forefront of everyone, came to the basket in the frontcourt, and scored easily with a powerful dunk.

Su Tian scored 5 points in a row at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and the point difference between the two teams reached 17 points. Spoelstra on the sidelines could not help but want to call a timeout.

But then Oladipo on the Heat's side successfully broke through to the basket and scored two points to stop the bleeding.

Although Oladipo at this time no longer has the ability of his previous All-Star period, he is still a force that cannot be underestimated on the bench.

But if the Heat only count on substitute players like Oladipo to score, then the Heat can be said to be not far from failure.

Sure enough, in the next few rounds, Butler was still trapped in Su Tian's death entanglement, but other Heat players could not continue to contribute stable output.

Not even halfway through the fourth quarter, Spoelstra finally couldn't help but call a timeout. He took advantage of the timeout to make substitutions and get the entire starting lineup.

The Lakers also got the starting lineup in advance, and the decisive battle between the two teams began.

It was said to be the decisive moment, but in fact it was completely a unilateral crushing by the Lakers.

Even if the referee came out to add drama at this time and whistled several controversial penalties in succession, he could not withstand the Lakers' offensive at all.

Halfway through the fourth quarter, the point difference between the two teams had reached 20 points, and the Heat had completely lost the possibility of winning.

A few minutes later, Spoelstra called timeout again, took down the entire starting lineup, and raised the white flag to surrender.

After the Heat won the main lineup, the Lakers also followed suit, winning the main lineup and letting the bench play.

At the end of the game, the Lakers won the game 119-97, with a big score of 1-0, and the Lakers took the lead in winning a city.

苏天全场拿下了28分14助攻7篮板2抢断，得分没有上30分也是因为受到了热火包夹的影响，但是28分依然是全场得分最高分。

After the game, Su Tian stepped forward and hugged Butler.

"Jimmy, I won this round. You won't have another chance to win in the future." Su Tian said with a smile.

"Really, let's wait and see Su, the series has just begun." Butler said with a bad expression.

The Heat and Lakers have a deep bond. After hugging Butler, Su Tian also greeted Vincent, Nunn, Dun Luo and others respectively.

Immediately afterwards, Su Tian and Nongmei went to participate in the post-match interview.

This game was relatively dull throughout, with no special highlights, but as the first game of the finals, it was full of topics.

"Su, what do you think of the Heat today? Some people say the Heat are a weakened version of the Lakers."

Su Tian smiled and said: "I think the reason why some people say this is because the Heat have many former Lakers players, but in fact the Heat and the Lakers are different. No matter the team style or tactics and strategies, the Heat and the Lakers are different." The configurations are all different, these are two completely different teams.”

"Su, how many games do you think the finals will end in? Does the Heat have a chance to break the Lakers' unbeaten streak in the playoffs?"

"To this question, I still have the same answer as before. We only care about whether we can win the championship. We don't care about whether we can maintain the so-called undefeated championship. The championship is our motivation and goal."

In response to Su Tian's answer, many reporters expressed "Sure enough" expressions.

After all, Su Tian has answered this answer many times.

After asking Su Tian a few questions, these reporters found that they couldn't find any explosive points, so they turned to ask Nongmei.

"Anthony, what do you think of the penalties in this game? Is there any difference compared to the previous ones?"

The thick eyebrows have also undergone rigorous training, and Wharton also expected such questions before the interview, so he was naturally prepared in advance.

"Penalty? It's very good, very strict, very standardized. It's as standardized and convincing as the previous games." Thick eyebrows said with a serious face.

However, the reporters below knew that the thick eyebrows had been troubled by fouls in these games, and yet they said such words, which made people think that the thick eyebrows were being arrogant and saying some irony.

"So Anthony, you also think that those actions of yours were fouls?" A reporter immediately asked again.

"I think? No, no, no, I don't think it counts. What the referee thinks counts. If the referee thinks my action is a foul, then I am a foul. I will obey the referee's decision unconditionally." The thick eyebrows still looked serious, as if they were really sincere in their hearts. That's what I think.

The more serious the thick eyebrow looks, the more the reporters below want to laugh.

Looking at the reporters below who couldn't help laughing, Thick Eyebrow said: "Really, I really think so, you believe me."

As soon as Nongmei finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from below. Apparently everyone understood what Nongmei meant.

After the interview, Nong Mei found Su Tian.

"Su, do you think this is really effective?" Thick Eyebrow asked with a hint of doubt.

Su Tian smiled and said: "Don't worry, buddy, if the league doesn't want to make itself a laughing stock, the penalties in the next game will be normal."

"If the league really continues to do this, the NBA's credibility will be completely lost and it will become a laughing stock. This is something the league is unwilling to accept. So the league will definitely make adjustments."

"Otherwise, everyone in the future will be like you today, mocking the NBA with a serious expression."

After hearing Su Tian's explanation, the thick eyebrows nodded in understanding.

"Okay man, I kinda get it."

At this time, some reports about this game were also issued one after another, and in the office of the league headquarters, Xiao Hua naturally saw this interview with thick eyebrows.

Xiao Hua frowned, thinking about something in his mind while watching the interview.

Then Xiao Hua picked up the phone and made a call.

"The next game should be played normally. The movements should not be too obvious. At least there should be a normal game in the middle. We can continue after we get to Miami." (End of Chapter)
