Healthy basketball, starting from eating the old Lakers F4

Chapter 359: 50 points inside? Proof of a superstar!

Before Jordan was born, championship teams often had a big man who could do anything he wanted in the paint.

This is because basketball is a game where the closer you are to the basket, the higher your hit rate and the easier it is to win.

Having a dominant big man will give the team a more stable scoring ability, while also getting more rebounds and protecting the basket.

Today's Heat actually do not lack scoring ability or scoring in the penalty area.

But then again, no one in the Heat can score in the low post like Duen, get what he wants in the low post, and is unstoppable.

After Duane came on the court in the second quarter, the Heat's momentum of chasing points was instantly extinguished. Instead, the entire team began to focus on the defensive end, worrying about how to limit Dune's low-post play.

Seeing that both Bosh and Haslem had nothing to do with Duen, Spoelstra could only call a timeout to adjust and let James guard Duen.

The playoffs are all about talent and the strength of the stars on both offense and defense.

After all, James is also the No. 03 pick of the Platinum Generation. Although it is indeed not as good as Duan from the current point of view, James' physical talent is definitely no problem.

If there is anyone on the Heat team who can limit Duane a little on the defensive end, that person can only be James.

"Okay, I'll defend Du En."

Although James was not very happy, he had to bite the bullet at this time.

After all, James' goal this season is still to win the championship. If he continues to lose to Doune and the Bulls, James doesn't know whether he will live in the shadow of failure and Doune for the rest of his life.

In order to get out of the current predicament, but also to help the Heat win tonight's game.

After the timeout, James temporarily put aside his offensive duties and devoted all his energy to the defensive end.

At this time, Du En returned to the court, and it was unclear what Spoelstra's on-the-spot adjustments were.

Du En continued to play as before, until he discovered that after halftime, James took the initiative to defend, and Du En realized that there was a new change.

Facing James, Duan is not afraid of his defense, nor is he worried that after a physical confrontation with James, the offense will be difficult to succeed.

After Duan faced off against James, the only thing that needed to be paid attention to was whether James made any abnormal or unnecessary movements during the defensive process.

Anyone who has played basketball knows that to prevent a shot, reach out first, and to prevent a breakthrough, step first.

James usually does the opposite. He stretches his legs when others shoot, and he takes action when others break through.

In fact, Duen doesn't have to worry too much when encountering other players' unconventional defensive moves. After all, the durability attribute is also fully equipped, and minor injuries and illnesses can be cured by sleeping the next day.

But James is too skilled in performing unconventional moves.

Just like Bowen, he failed to defeat someone once, but continued to defeat him twice and three times in a row. He kept doing this, and the half-human and half-god Carter couldn't bear it.

Duan will not joke about his health. After facing James, he will first use his floor skills to fight James.

Facing Du En's tidal wave of iron mountain support, James was also hit and grinned, but he still managed to resist.

Because he couldn't hit the basket well and had no chance to directly hit the layup to complete the game, Duen usually hit his back a few times to attract double teams and then immediately passed the ball to his teammates on the outside.

Fortunately, Curry and others did not disappoint Duan.

Even if there are some individuals who failed to find the touch in the second quarter, the Bulls have many players who can play, and in terms of body, wingspan and athletic ability, the Bulls always have an advantage.

It is precisely because of this that the Bulls relied on the talents of the rookies to once again gain some advantages in the second quarter.

At the end of the first half, the score reached 53 to 68. The Bulls had established a 15-point lead in the first half.

After the start of the third quarter, perhaps they worked too hard in the first half. The frequent physical confrontations consumed a lot of energy from each other's main players. Whether it was the Bulls or the Heat, the offensive efficiency of both teams declined to a certain extent.

However, the Bulls relied on the depth of their bench and constantly transferred people to the court. When Curry, Ray Allen, and Duan were on the court at the same time, it finally had a miraculous effect.

In just one minute, the Bulls made three three-pointers in a row, one for each of Duane.

Originally, Du En only wanted to play in the low post, but the physical exertion in the first half was really great, and there was a lot of physical confrontation, which made Du En's back and arm muscles a little sore.

Duan was worried that he would not have the energy to play in the fourth quarter, so he played basketball in the third quarter and sat on the sidelines, letting Aldridge and Curry play.

Just in time, Ray Allen, who came on as a substitute, acted as a surprise player as soon as he came up. He raised his hand and hit a three-pointer from the corner.

In the next round, the Bulls put down Chalmers' three-pointer and launched a counterattack fast break. Curry made a chasing three-pointer from a 45-degree angle on the right side.

It was also two sharpshooters who threw the ball away, and the Heat's defensive position was forced to expand a bit.

After Wade broke through and scored for a layup, it was the Bulls' turn to attack again. The Bulls also relied on Aldridge to play from behind and then score suddenly. Duan received the ball from the corner and made a three-pointer, which helped the Bulls continue to gain firepower.

It was also such a sudden three-point rain, and the score difference suddenly widened by as much as 7 points.

The Heat players on the court were a little confused, but the Heat coach Spoelstra off the court was not confused. Instead, he was very clear-headed and immediately called a timeout.

After the timeout, Curry ran without the ball and took advantage of the cover to make an open three-pointer but failed to continue his firepower.

However, the Bulls are the leading side, and the scoring advantage they have established before is enough.

The Bulls don't need Curry's three-pointers to stay alive. Curry hasn't found his touch yet, so let other scoring points have a try.

After all, Aldridge is the second in charge of the Bulls, but he still completed the task of stabilizing the situation well. He succeeded in two consecutive rounds of singles against Bosh, which made the efforts of James and Wade in vain.

75 to 95, before the start of the fourth quarter, the Bulls already had a 20-point advantage.

Under normal circumstances, the Bulls would have been able to secure victory in G1 of the Eastern Conference Finals and win easily.

Not wanting to kill Cheng Yaojin halfway, Mike Miller, who came on the bench, suddenly made three consecutive three-pointers at the beginning of the fourth quarter, becoming the Heat's biggest surprise in this game.

However, although this is unexpected, it is also reasonable.

As a white forward, Mike Miller's selling point is that he is good at shooting. His three-pointers are above 40% all year round, even in the playoffs, and his output is not low.

It was also because of Mike Miller's sudden explosion that the main players of the Bulls and Heat had to play hotter and harder in the fourth quarter.

After the point difference narrowed to 13 points, Duan immediately returned to the court, hit the basket for three consecutive rounds, scored a goal, and won two free throws, scoring 4 points in a row to stabilize the situation.

However, Duane was not the only one to get to the free throw line. Wade also relied on his famous stunt, Wade Tumble, and successfully caused damage in two consecutive rounds. He made 4 of 4 free throws and narrowed the point difference to 13 points.

Aldridge knew that Dunn could not always maintain his current offensive efficiency, so he took the initiative to ask for the ball, beat Bosh in the low post, and soon scored two points.

All we can say is that if the Bulls want to win, they must ask Bosh to withdraw money.

If James guards Duane, Aldridge will single out Bosh. If James doesn't guard Duane, then Duane will bully Bosh with the ball. However, Bosh couldn't guard him, but at the critical moment, he still contributed a three-pointer for the Heat.

Of course, in the fourth quarter tonight, not only Wade and Bosh are contributing, but James is not willing to watch the Heat lose.

However, in the second half of the fourth quarter, the Heat relied solely on the individual strength of the Big Three to score points, but in the end it was of no avail.

After the Big Three got the ball, Mike Miller was not so magical. Other points such as Chalmers and Haslem also failed to make the ball.

The Heat lacked more help on the offensive end, so they were never able to narrow the point difference to less than 10 points.

Although until the last minute, the Heat's main players still did not end the game and did not give up the game, the Bulls still relied on the lead established in the first three quarters to firmly grasp the advantage and win the game.

104 to 120, G1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls took the lead in winning the series with a 16-point advantage.

In the past, if one of the teams in the Eastern Conference finals could score over 100 points, it was basically a guaranteed win.

In tonight's battle, the defenses of the Bulls and Heat are not bad. It can even be called a needle-point versus a thorn, a thunder versus an earth-fire!

However, because the game is very fast-paced and has many more rounds than other games, both sides score a lot.

If you really think about it, the Bulls were able to win tonight mainly by identifying the weak link on the Heat's defensive end, using a large number of low-post offenses to find Bosh, and scoring 78 points in the penalty area, which laid the foundation for winning in one fell swoop. .

When nearly 7% of a team's points come from the basket, and the outside shooting percentage exceeds 40%, it is difficult not to win.

In tonight's game, the Bulls took the magic ball theory to its extreme.

Although the Heat also play small ball, the Heat are not as accurate as the Bulls from the perimeter, nor are they capable of attacking with the ball in the low post like Duane and Aldridge.

It can be said that the Heat playing the Bulls is like high school students playing college students. Even though the styles are similar, there is still a difference in level!
Level suppression, learn about it!
"Dunn, congratulations on your victory tonight, and you scored another 50 points tonight. Is there anything you want to say about this?"

"Dunn, is it easy for you to score 50 points in the playoffs?"

"Dunn, Barkley praised you for being more dominant in the low post than he was at his peak. What do you think of this?"

In the post-match interview session, Duane, who led the team to win with 50 points tonight, undoubtedly became the focus of reporters' attention.

In the past, there were no super insiders who put on crazy performances in the playoffs, but it's crazy that they can usually score 30+ consecutive performances.

Tonight, Duan used the inside style to score 50 points. This was really jaw-dropping and hard to accept for a while.

After all, this is something that most super insiders in history cannot do.

As strong as O'Neal, his highest score in a single game in the playoffs was only 46 points!

Of course, it's difficult for super insiders like O'Neal to score like Duane.

On the one hand, there is insufficient movement and control, and it is easy to be intercepted in front of the ball.

On the other hand, there is the physical factor. Melee fighting inside is too exhausting!

To score 50 points in a game, you have to take at least twenty or thirty shots in the paint.

Chamberlain was able to score 100 points in the regular season, but his highest score in the playoffs was 56 points, and he even averaged only 22.5 points per game.

Even with Zhang's 20,000 physical strength, there is no way to ensure staying power and sustained output in the playoffs.
It is indeed extraordinary that Duan was able to score 50 points on the stage of the Eastern Conference finals with the style of an inside player.

But then again, Duen is able to play so explosively thanks to the fact that today is an era of declining centers.

If we go back ten years ago, wouldn't that playoff team have a white human shield center to consume O'Neal?
If O'Neal at his peak were to face Bosh in this era, it might not be too difficult for O'Neal to score 50 points in the playoffs.

Duan also reaped the dividends of the times, and was able to gradually surpass the great superstars in NBA history in terms of statistics and honors.

……

Two days after the Bulls won G1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, G2 started immediately.

I have to say that scoring 1 points in G50 is not that easy to get.

Even in the past two days, Duan has been using massage therapy and cryotherapy to relieve muscle fatigue and pain.

However, after G2 started, Du En discovered that his physical condition still had some effects, and his personal strength could not be fully displayed in this game.

His shooting is unstable and his physical strength has not fully recovered. If Duen wants to play in the low post, it is impossible for him to fire unlimitedly without any worries like in G1.

Dunn had no choice but to hand the ball over to other teammates first. As a result, the mysterious George was guarded by Battier and turned into an undercover agent.

Fortunately, Scott Skiles, who noticed something was wrong, quickly replaced George with Kawhi.

Then the Bulls relied on the talent of the entire lineup and their height and wingspan advantages to consolidate their defensive base and protect more rebounds.

After the first three quarters, the score was 74 to 76, and the Bulls were still leading by 2 points.

However, not long after the start of the fourth quarter, Chalmers made two consecutive three-pointers. The Heat took the opportunity to overtake the score, but the Bulls fell behind.

The Bulls fans at the scene were also anxious, shouting defense early, and immediately booed whenever the Heat scored, constantly putting pressure on the Heat players.

Fortunately, Du En was just tired, not weak. As a man, you still have to be tough when you need to be tough.

Before the critical moment of the fourth quarter arrived, Duan relied on low-post offense and scored six points in a row. Neither Bosh nor James could limit Duan's indiscriminate singles.

For this reason, the Heat can only restrict Duen from receiving the ball one after another when Duen receives the ball, and try to make the Bulls make passing errors as much as possible.

Upon seeing this, Du En immediately changed his playing style and ran to the top of the arc to catch the ball.

The Heat had just double-teamed Duane in the low post, but they did not dare to double-team Duan from beyond the three-point line in advance, especially when Duan was surrounded by two sharp shooters, Curry and Ray Allen.

Based on Du En's passing vision and ability, whoever wants to double-team Du En shows that he is undercover and doesn't want to win at all.

The Heat also know the strength of Curry and Ray Allen in three-point shooting, so they can only let Duan play in isolation with the ball, forcing Duan to shoot from the outside as much as possible.

After all, judging from the situation in the third quarter, Du En's shooting was not accurate tonight!

However, super giant is super giant! In the fourth quarter, Duan was still playing in the low post, but after returning to the high post, his shooting was accurate again.

James, who also likes to shoot from the outside, has never figured out why Dunn can shoot so accurately after a lot of physical confrontation, but he can't?
Watching Duen hit a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, he quickly recovered the point difference and once again overtook the Heat.

James couldn't hold himself back and tried to use a cold arrow suddenly, but the result was a Duang sound.

Sure enough, it was not as expected by other Heat players... (End of chapter)
