Chapter 124 Dull
After the first few shots after the start of the third quarter, all of the first few shots were hit, and suddenly began to hit the iron continuously. After seven consecutive offenses without scoring, James finally broke through and made a foul and made a free throw to end the streak. It's embarrassing to hit the iron, but unfortunately after the free throw, the feel of the two teams is still very poor, and the three irons are played again, and the fans are yawning.

In desperation, when the game lasted less than 5 minutes in the third quarter, the Heat finally couldn't take it anymore and called a timeout to adjust the mentality and feel of the players. By the way, Battier was replaced by Ray Allen.Although the Pacers did not make any personnel adjustments, Coach Frank also prepared a contingency plan and asked Solomon Hill and George Hill to start warming up in case the opponent found the touch and suddenly chased points.

After returning from the timeout, Chalmers led the Heat to the frontcourt and handed the ball to Wade who was waiting at the top of the arc. Due to personnel adjustments, James had already mentioned the position of power forward, so he looked for Chance.

After Wade got the basketball, he immediately called James' pick-and-roll cover. After the two hit the wall, they quickly separated. After passing the opponent, he made a fallback jump shot, and then the bad touch didn't change because of the end of the timeout, and the shot still hit the iron.

On the Pacers side, Pickled Pepper grabbed the rebound, and then moved forward quickly. They were interfered by Ray Allen in the middle, so they had no choice but to slow down, and then handed the ball to Ye Xuan, who took the ball Came to the frontcourt and handed the ball to Hibbert inside again, hoping that he could use his body inside to help the Pacers open the situation, but Hibbert's back hit, turn and hook still ended in a hit.

The two sides have played for almost 6 minutes in the third quarter, and they only scored 8 points in total. It is no wonder that the commentators on the scene almost fell asleep.But fortunately, in the next round, the Heat scored a layup on the inside by James.

As for the Pacers, Ye Xuan did not show weakness, and immediately wanted to break into the opponent's inside line to fight back. Unfortunately, besides Bosh guarding the inside line, James also lives in it now. Thinking of James' big hat, Ye Xuan couldn't help but So in the end, under James' supplementary defense, Ye Xuan did not choose to shoot. Instead, he hit the ball one by one to West, who pulled aside James' supplementary defense, and West caught the ball. Just shoot, and the mid-range shot made a steady hit, which can be regarded as breaking the Pacers' 5-minute scoring drought in the third quarter.

Then, the Heat seem to have found a way to attack, constantly using James as the axis, or outside players to cut in, or really giants to pull out, disrupting the Pacers' defensive formation, and then James decides to be himself Attacking the inside line still attracted the double-team and then distributed the ball to the outside line. In 4 consecutive rounds, this style of play worked well, scoring 5 points for the Heat.

On the other hand, the Pacers team is a bit hard-pressed. Lance and Pickled Pepper don't have a good touch, and West's shooting touch is not bad, but he can't find the space to shoot. Finding space to shoot, if it was normal, the opponent would have been knocked out by Ye Xuan's life-hunting soul-hunting shot. Unfortunately, Ye Xuan's hand feeling is not particularly good now, and he only scored 3 points in 3 shots.

Coach Frank saw that he couldn't do it, so he simply called a timeout, replaced the pickled peppers and Lance who were not feeling good, replaced two Hills, and then replaced Hibbert, replaced Mahinmi.Ye Xuan was promoted to the position of shooting guard. Although the hand feeling is not good, he can also take on the role of interfering with the opponent. Moreover, a shooter like Ye Xuan does not know when he will suddenly become enlightened. I can't eat and walk around.

After a timeout, the Pacers served from the sideline, and the basketball was handed over to George Hill. Then everyone pulled away, ready to let him test the waters in singles, but unexpectedly, Hill's first statistic after playing It turned out to be a mistake, dribbling and dribbling, the ball was cut off by Wade who suddenly appeared next to him, and he scored two points directly.

After making a mistake, Hill cheered up and began to deal with Chalmers in front of him carefully. First, he changed hands under the crotch, pulled the ball to the right, and then suddenly started to break through inward, and then hit the opponent at the opponent's center of gravity. Before he could stabilize, he immediately pulled the ball back to his left hand, successfully passed the opponent and hit a mid-range shot near the free throw line.

Seeing Hill's shot go into the net, all the Pacers breathed a sigh of relief. After all, there is still at least one person on his side whose shots are still reliable, and there will be no embarrassing situation of continuous strikes.

Moreover, after the Pacers replaced Solomon Hill and George Hill, there is another advantage, that is, the rotation speed of the defense has been improved, and the rotation speed is just to restrain the Heat's current internal line as the axis. To tear apart the defensive formation.So the Heat are in tragedy again, they can't easily tear out the gap, and the Heat's shooting rate begins to decline again. Although they can still score goals, the shooting rate is very touching.

With about 2 minutes left in the third quarter, the Heat finally made some personnel adjustments, returning Chalmers and Wade and replacing them with Norris Cole and Haas Lehm, and the real giant was also replaced by Oden the Great, which was also the first appearance of Oden the Great in the Eastern Conference Finals.

James returned to his familiar small forward position, and the Pacers also replaced West with peace of mind and replaced Scola with a relatively thin body.After the timeout ended, the Heat served from the sideline. After Cole received the basketball, he dribbled two steps and handed the ball to James.

And James held the ball at the top of the arc, while directing his teammates to move, while signaling Oden to go inside to get a position, and then passed the ball inside.Although Emperor Auden was suffering from injuries, he was still able to display his basic skills when he was healthy.

After receiving the ball from the inside, Oden quickly lowered his body and hit Mahinmi twice, then turned around and made a small hook shot, scoring the ball, which also made Spoelstra's eyes shine. After all, if Emperor Auden can continue to behave like this, then the internal problem of his team will be solved soon, but it is a pity that Emperor Auden slapped him in the face in an instant. Ye Xuan on the inside flew easily, not only scoring the ball but also drawing a foul.
