I am super giant

Chapter 237 Pat Riley
Afterwards, Ye Feng dribbled the ball across the half court.

The first playoff game of his career really started.

Wade defended at the first moment, sticking close to Ye Feng.

Now the entire league knows that to defend Ye Feng's three-pointer, he must not be given any open opportunities.

The Heat apparently gave Wade this task.

Although Jones' defense is not bad, but after all, he is too old to follow Ye Feng all over the field.

And to be honest, even the young Jones couldn't outrun the current Ye Feng.

The Heat's three outside lines, Wade, Jones, and Butler's defense are all good, but only Wade is suitable for defending Ye Feng.

Wade defended very fiercely, with obvious physical contact. The big pectoral muscles of the two D cups on his chest pushed against Ye Feng from time to time, and his two thick arms would occasionally pull and touch, trying to oppress Ye Feng and let him Ye Feng made a mistake.

But Ye Feng at this moment is no longer the Ye Feng he was in the previous preseason. His body is stronger and his ball-handling skills have improved a lot. Ordinary defense will never let him make mistakes.

What's more, Ye Feng is not the main attack point tonight, and the pressure is not great.

According to the strategy formulated before the game, Ye Feng sent the ball to Ilgauskas, and then withdrew to the horns outside the three-point line to ambush.

(The bull's horn is the position at a 45-degree angle.)
At the same time, Eric Williams ambushed the bottom corner.

Boozer pulls to mid-range and James runs back and forth.

And all of this is to create offensive opportunities for Ilgauskas.

The 221cm Ilgauskas is the biggest advantage of the Cavaliers. After all, both Odom and Bryan are less than 210cm, and he is a dwarf in front of him.

The Heat obviously know their shortcomings, but there is nothing they can do.

The team's interior is generally short, and the backup power forward Haslem is even only 203 cm, which is even more disadvantaged.

Double team?That leaf wind, Williams, and Boozer can cast you to death.

Even Pat Riley, the fortune teller, can't live without rice.

It was Odom who defended the big Z, and the big Z didn't take it too seriously, he leaned back and turned over and shot a jumper.

Odom tried to block the shot, but couldn't reach it.

So whether the goal can be scored or not depends only on how big Z feels.

Swish!
The goal was scored, 2:0, Big Z lived up to expectations.

Offensive and defensive transition, the Heat attack.

Just after Eddie Jones dribbled the ball for half court, the Cavaliers defended a 4-1 false zone defense.

James man-to-man defended Jones, and the other four defended.

Boozer and Big Z lay low, Ye Feng and Williams stood on both sides of the free throw line, and the four surrounded the entire paint area.

"Oh, it seems that the Cavaliers are extremely well prepared!"

The on-site commentary said with emotion at the first time.

That's right, the Cavaliers have been prepared for a long time, targeting the characteristics of the Heat's strong breakthrough and poor long-range shooting.

The three outsiders of the Cavaliers are all good breakthrough players, Wade, Jones, and Butler, of which only Jones has declined due to age.

But on the contrary, their long-range shots will not work.

Wade made just over 30% of his three-pointers this season. To be honest, he hasn't practiced his three-pointers to an average level throughout his career, perhaps because his breakthrough is too sharp.

Butler's career is relatively accurate, but his three-pointers this season are less than 30%.

The most accurate Eddie Jones is 37% of his career.

So facing such a team, as long as James keeps up with Jones, the Cavaliers can shrink unscrupulously.

Jones tried to get rid of James and broke the Cavaliers' false zone defense with a three-pointer.

But several efforts, all ended in failure.

It seems that Jones is really old. The former All-Star shooting guard is now just an advanced 3D player.

Jones couldn't get a chance, so he passed the ball to Wade and Butler, trying to let them break the situation.

Wade is known as the Flash, and his breakthrough ability is at a historical level. Even in the first season, he is no weaker than anyone, and he is a powerful immediate combat force.

(That is, combat power, you can use it as the main force when you choose it, and it doesn't need long-term training.)
However, Ye Feng closed very inside and retreated directly to the three-point line, with Williams assisting on one side and Boozer and Big Z sitting behind him, defending against Wade's breakthrough.

Under such circumstances, Wei Dekong has the ability but can't use it.

Every time I squeezed in, I hit a human wall and couldn't find space at all.

Just trying around like this, the Heat never found a way to break the formation, but time passed by second by second.

Seeing that 24 seconds were coming, Wade made a forced shot from outside the three-point line.

boom!
The ball missed so much that it didn't even touch the rim and hit the backboard directly.

In rebounding, the four-man shrinking Cavaliers already have an advantage, coupled with their height advantage, the Heat can't grab rebounds at all.

Boozer firmly protected the backboard and handed it to Ye Feng to advance.

Offensive and defensive transitions don't exist.

While the Heat are not dominant in height, they are fast and rarely allow opponents to catch loopholes in offensive and defensive transitions.

In addition, the defense of the three outsiders is good, with a strong sense of oppression, which can destroy the opponent's fast break in an instant.

The moment Ye Feng received the ball, Wade entangled him, not giving Ye Feng a chance to accelerate directly.

There is no way, Ye Feng can only push forward slowly.

It is said that there is no such thing as the best of both worlds. A knight has a height advantage, so don't even think about having a speed advantage. Ye Feng is also acceptable.

The Cavaliers' offense is still the big Z's singles with the ball, showing its advantages.

Big Z's ability is not particularly strong, but at least he is an All-Star center.

When he met the "short" insiders of the Heat, he made him extra "tall".

Big Z leaned against Odom and didn't exert any force. He simply swayed from side to side, then suddenly hooked sideways, and easily threw the ball into the basket.

4: 0.

The situation of the Cavaliers is very good, regardless of offense or defense, they have overwhelmed the Heat.

"Seriously speaking, the Cavaliers are stronger than the Heat."

The on-site commentary said leisurely.

The Heat has three cores, the outside line is slightly stronger, and the inside line is relatively weak.

外线韦德场均16.2分4篮板4.5助攻1.4抢断0.6盖帽。

艾迪·琼斯场均17.3分3.8篮板3.2助攻1.1抢断0.4盖帽。

内线就只有一个奥多姆，场均17.1分9.7篮板4.1助攻1.1抢断0.9盖帽。

The Cavaliers have quad-core, internally and externally balanced.

外线詹姆斯场均20.9分5.5篮板5.9助攻1.6抢断0.7盖帽。

叶风场均18.8分4.1篮板5.3助攻1.6抢断0.5盖帽。

内线布泽尔场均15.1分11.4篮板2助攻1抢断0.7盖帽。

Ilgauskas averaged 15 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.5 blocks per game.

Data cannot explain everything, but it can reflect many problems.

The Heat can still compete with the Cavaliers on the outside, but the inside is far behind.

"Strangely though, tactically, Paul seemed to completely overwhelm Pat Riley."

"I'm not saying Paul is bad, but this shouldn't be Pat Riley's level!"

Another commentator said.

The Heat's nominal coach is "Big Fan" Stan Van Gundy, but fans know that the person who really masters this team is Pat Riley.

Da Fan is just a puppet in Riley's hands. How dare a coach in the first season not listen to Riley?

On the side of the Heat's bench, Pat Riley was calm and calm, sitting on the side without any anxiety or dissatisfaction on his face. It seemed that the Heat had the upper hand in the scene.

This scene made many Cavaliers fans uneasy.

Pat Riley, no matter what his character is, his ability is definitely at the level of a famous coach, and it is impossible for him to be suppressed by Paul to this point.
