NBA Old Age Star System

But no matter what, the 3-point difference is already a rare good situation for the Heat, and Spoelstra naturally wants to seize this opportunity.

At the same time, Walton also took a serious attitude towards the Lakers' bench. After all, even the Lakers had to be careful with the 3-point difference.

"Su, the team is still centered on you in the fourth quarter. I think the Heat's double-teaming of you in the third quarter is not strict. You do this first. You first hit a few decisively to attract the Heat's attention. Watch the Heat. What reaction does it take, and then make changes.”

"Good coach." Su Tian replied.

In fact, Wharton's ideas coincided with Su Tian's. Even if Wharton didn't say so, Su Tian was prepared to do so.

Soon the intersection ended and the fourth quarter began.

In the fourth quarter, the Lakers' lineup was the same as before. Su Tian and Nongmei still led the team on the field, while Butler and Adebayor played on the Heat's side.

In fact, Butler's playing time is enough in this game, but as the team's star, Butler must shoulder this responsibility.

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

After arriving in the frontcourt, facing Butler's defense, Su Tian stretched out his hand to signal his teammates to pull away and once again assumed a singles stance.

Oladipo on the side had already begun to shift his center of gravity when he saw this, and looked like he was going to double-team Su Tian.

Su Tian seemed not to have seen it, and was still minding his own business with his hands crossed and dribbling, mobilizing Butler's defense, and then made a sharp change of direction and rushed directly to the basket.

Butler also immediately adjusted his center of gravity and caught up with Su Tian. Oladipo on the side saw Su Tian was so determined, gritted his teeth and rushed towards Su Tian.

But just when Oladipo made a move, Su Tian easily deceived Oladipo with a fake pass.

As if a button was pressed, Oladipo turned around and returned to his defender.

At this time, Su Tian directly stopped and shot a jump shot.

Swah——

A solid hit from mid-range.

5 points difference.

Su Tian's movements were very smooth overall, and the wonderful scene just now was played back on the big screen of Staples. Everyone lamented Su Tian's amazing body control, and they couldn't help but laugh at Oladipo who was being teased.

The ball was transferred and Oladipo came to the frontcourt with the ball.

Although he was teased just now, Oladipo's mentality is very stable now. He has already given up all those fights and just wants to play well.

After arriving in the frontcourt, Oladipo passed the ball directly to Butler. Butler received the ball and faced Su Tian's defense.

It's still a three-threat start, and then a pick-and-roll is called.

As Su Tian's old friend and rival, Butler understands very well that Su Tian's dominance in the fourth quarter cannot be dealt with by his own ability alone.

With the help of Adebayor's pick-and-roll, Butler tried to break through, but was blocked by Su Tian again as expected.

So Butler could only pass the ball to Adebayor, who was down the line.

Adebayor received the ball, wanted to challenge the thick eyebrows at the basket, rushed to the basket and shot for a layup.

Snapped--

But as soon as Adebayor took action, he was directly blocked by a thick eyebrow slap.

Su Tian quickly stepped forward to get the basketball, turned around and launched a fast break.

Butler was already prepared. Su Tian was just getting started. Butler stepped forward and hugged Su Tian.

"Hey Jimmy, is this the only way you can stop me?" Su Tian said with a smile.

"Anything that can stop you is a good way." Butler responded expressionlessly.

Butler sacrificed a foul opportunity and allowed the Lakers' offense to fall into position.

But even if they fell into position, the Heat still couldn't stop Su Tian, ​​who was attacking with the ball.

Just like a replica of the previous round, Su Tian still held the ball and quickly broke through to the basket. Adebayor tried to step forward to help defend against double teams.

But Su Tian used the lever to dodge and hit another layup.

The score difference came to 7 points.

"It feels like the Heat are at the end of their rope and can't come up with any effective tactics and strategies."

"The Heat have almost reached their limit. The only thing left that can compete with the Lakers is their mental attributes."

"It seems that the Heat are missing an important figure, a figure similar to Mr. Key or Miracle Boy."

"Hiro originally had this potential, but it's a pity that he is still too young."

"The Heat lack a miracle, a breakthrough that allows them to score regardless of defense."

As the game continued, the Heat finally started to score, but at this time the point difference had reached double digits.

A few minutes later Spoelstra called a timeout.

Spoelstra couldn't find any better way and could only get into the starting lineup in advance.

The Lakers did not get all the starting lineup together, and still maintained the previous lineup.

After the Heat got all the main starting players, it still had some effects, especially for Su Tian's double-teaming, the effect became better, and the point difference stopped expanding.

These are Spoelstra's feelings off the court.

But in fact, the reason why the point difference did not continue to widen was because Su Tian reduced the proportion of his own shots and gave more shots to his teammates. Su Tian began to pass the ball to assist his teammates.

After a few rounds, the point difference was still hovering around 10 points. At this time, half of the fourth quarter was over. Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, Walton made substitution adjustments and took on the entire starting lineup.

After the Lakers made substitution adjustments, the Lakers' offense became more relaxed, and the stalemate point difference began to widen again.

At this time, Spoelstra sat down on the bench, seemingly resigned to his fate.

After a few rounds, the score difference reached 16 points, and Spoelstra called a timeout, preparing to replace the main force and surrender.

But Butler immediately objected.

"Coach, we have been working hard for a year just waiting for this opportunity. We can't just give up so easily!"

Butler's eyes were very firm, making Spoeldu feel a little embarrassed and guilty.

At this time, other people on the Heat team also began to express their thoughts.

"That's right, coach, we haven't lost yet, the game isn't over yet, we should try our best again, so at least we won't regret it!" Vincent said.

"Coach, I agree to give it a try. After all, we don't make it to the finals every year." Adebayor said. "Yes, an opportunity in the finals is hard-won, and we can't give up so easily!" Tucker said.

Seeing that all the team members were so full of energy, Spo seemed to be awakened.

"Okay, since everyone thinks so, let's continue! Use the last bullet!"

After speaking, Spoelstra picked up the tactical board and began to lay out the following tactics and modify the previous tactics.

"We must double-team Su more resolutely in the fourth quarter! Su's offense in the fourth quarter is too strong, we must stop it! The previous fake double-teams have been cancelled, and all have become real double-teams!"

With Spoelstra's little arrangements, the tactics gradually took shape.

As for the Lakers, Walton looked at the Heat's state and didn't see any intention of giving up.

Wharton clapped his hands and said: "Okay guys, there is not much time left, be vigilant! You must guard these few minutes!"

So Wharton also began to pick up the tactical board and emphasize some precautions.

The timeout soon ended and the game continued.

After playing again, not only were the Heat not discouraged, but their fighting spirit became even higher. This was felt not only by the Lakers players on the court, but also by the audience on the sidelines, including the fans in front of the TV.

Once again, everyone was moved by the spirit of the Heat.

But after a few rounds, when everyone's excitement subsided, they suddenly found that the score difference had not narrowed, but had become larger.

At the end of the game, the Lakers defeated the Heat 117-97 and won their second victory in the Finals, with the big score reaching 2-0.

After the game, Su Tian came forward to hug Butler and others as usual.

"What about Jimmy, it's me who wins this time." Su Tian said with a smile.

"Su, you are indeed very powerful, but the Heat are not easily defeated." Butler said.

After saying that, the two looked at each other, smiled and hugged each other.

Su Tian knew very well that if the Heat's mental attributes were infected by Butler, they would not be defeated so easily. However, although the Lakers could not defeat the opponent mentally, they could defeat the opponent in the game.

After bidding farewell to the Heat, the first two games have come to an end. The next two teams will move to Miami, and this will be the biggest challenge the Lakers face this season.

Just the day after the second game, Su Tian came to head coach Walton's office, and then Thick Eyebrow also came here.

"Su, tell me, what's the reason for calling us all here?" Wharton said.

Nongmei was also very confused, because the game had just ended, and Nongmei originally wanted to lie at home for a day to recuperate, but he was called over by Su Tian as soon as he woke up.

"Coach, Anthony, I think I have to say that the next two games will be our biggest challenge this season." Su Tian said with a serious face.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Wharton's expression was very confused.

It's not that Wharton doesn't believe in Su Tian, ​​but he is really confused as to why the next game will be so difficult.

"According to my speculation, in the next two away games, the referee's whistleblowing standards will change again and become what they were before." Su Tian said with a serious face.

"The way I was before? You mean, I will still be treated like that? But didn't it return to normal in the second game?" The expression of the thick eyebrows is very rich, including confusion, unwillingness, anger, and a trace of dissatisfaction. untie.

"Yes, he returned to normal in the last game, but that's why he will be even more aggressive in the next game! From the beginning to the end, the league's bias has not changed. The previous game was just influenced by Under pressure and considering public opinion, we had to change!" Su Tian said.

After Su Tian said this, the scene fell into silence.

After a moment, Wharton looked at Su Tian and said, "Su, what do you think we should do?"

Su Tianmo rubbed his chin and said: "I think we must be mentally prepared for the next game and be prepared with both hands. On the one hand, we must control our movements to avoid meaningless fouls. Even if we are about to commit a foul, we must Be quick, accurate and ruthless. On the other side, we need to find a thug who is ready to exchange money with Heat at any time!"

"Thug? Duizi?"

"Yes, since he wants to be biased, then we will directly escalate the conflict! Once a violent scene occurs, according to the nature of the league to play 50 games each, the Heat will definitely not be able to gain favor, but of course, this is the last resort. , just in case, you don’t necessarily need to use it, but you must be prepared.”

After listening to Su Tian's explanation, Nongmei and Wharton also began to think of their own.

A few minutes later, Walton said: "I agree with Su. We really need to be prepared, but if we can, we should try not to use it. After all, there are too many familiar people in the Heat team, so it is difficult to start."

After hearing what Wharton said, Thick Eyebrow nodded in support.

And if the referee really targets the Lakers again as Su Tian said, Nongmei himself will definitely bear the brunt.

So in the next two days of team training, Walton specifically emphasized this matter and also focused on training these players' ability to avoid fouls.

On June 6, the entire Lakers team came to the Heat’s home arena, the American Airlines Arena.

Before the game started, the American Airlines Arena was already filled with fans and spectators. There were not only Heat fans, but also a considerable number of Lakers fans.

After all, the Lakers have won three consecutive championships, and are now chasing four consecutive championships. Naturally, all kinds of "championship fans" are indispensable.

Soon the game time came and the players from both teams began to take the field.

When the Heat players came out, the cheers were deafening, especially when Butler came out at the end.

Su Tian smiled when he saw this scene and said: "It seems that Jimmy is very popular and has successfully conquered the American Airlines Center."

There is still no change in the starting lineup of the two teams in this game, or there is nothing that can be changed.

Brunson, Su Tian, ​​Johnson, George, thick eyebrows.

Vincent, Butler, Dunro, Tucker, Adebayo.

Nongmei and Adebayor went to the center circle, but Nongmei still took the lead.

Brunson stepped forward to receive the ball, advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and passed the ball directly to Su Tian.

Su Tian faced Butler's defense, and his thick eyebrows stepped forward to actively cooperate with the pick-and-roll.

With the help of thick eyebrow pick-and-roll, Su Tian went directly to the basket with the ball, successfully attracting a defensive double-team from Dun Luo.

But everyone knew Dun Luo's defense, so Su Tian barely put any effort into overcoming Dun Luo's defense and scored a layup.

2-0
The ball was transferred and Vincent came to the frontcourt with the ball.

Because the Lakers basically knew the tone of this game in the past two days, everyone's defense was very disciplined, but this can easily lead to problems.

For example, in this round, Dun Luo used the screen and pick-and-roll of his teammates to easily get an open opportunity. Vincent immediately passed the ball to Dun Luo, and Dun Luo took the ball and shot a three-pointer.

Swah——

The three-pointer hit directly.

2-3 (end of this chapter)
