Chapter 909 Strength gap
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Meng to be able to fight Durant without losing the wind."

"It's a little surprising. Durant is the top scorer in the league. Although he is not as comprehensive as LeBron, in terms of scoring ability, Durant is definitely not inferior to LeBron. He even has a single-round scoring method and comprehensive offensive skills. Sex, I think he's actually better than LeBron."

"I'm not surprised. Don't forget that the Heat won the finals only after defeating the Cavaliers. It's not that Meng and LeBron have never played against each other. The two sides have played seven games. Meng's performance is not comparable. LeBron is inferior."

"That's right, Meng's performance in this playoffs is definitely an All-Star level!"

"Heh, the All-Star level? I remember that Meng was an All-Star last season. With Meng's performance in this playoffs, it can be called an MVP level."

In the auditorium, many fans were discussing.

Durant played very well in this quarter. When Curry and Thompson couldn't play, he stood up and almost carried the banner of the Warriors' offense with his own strength, rushing inside and outside the Heat's defense , Unstoppable, scoring points is as simple as picking something out of a bag.

But this is not unusual for Durant, and it is normal for fans. After all, he is competing with LeBron James for the No.1 player in the league.

It was Meng Yun's performance that surprised the fans.

Although Meng Yun played very well in the three rounds of the playoffs this season, it is the finals after all. Will a second-year player who has never played in the finals come to this stage, will he be stage fright?

Facts have proved that this worry is completely unnecessary.

Meng Yun did not have stage fright, he played very well, even better than before, Durant carried the offense of the Warriors, and Meng Yun carried the offense of the Heat, the Heat were only 3 points behind the Warriors in the first quarter, This is actually beyond the expectations of many people.In the eyes of many people, even if the Heat defeated the Cavaliers and won the Eastern Conference championship, their strength is still not small compared to the Warriors.

In fact, even the Cavaliers, many people think that their strength is not as good as the Warriors. Although they beat the Warriors last season, can Barnes be comparable to Durant?
Of course not.

The arrival of Durant made the Warriors stronger than last season, and after last season's defeat, Curry, Thompson, and Green have also become more mature.

So almost everyone thinks that the Warriors are too strong, the best in the league. If the Cavaliers reach the finals, some people may still be hesitant, but the Heat have reached the finals, and there are not many people who are optimistic about the Heat.

After all, from the lineup, from the background, from experience. It seems that no matter from which aspect, the Heat are not 01:30 points worse than the Warriors.

It is precisely because of this that when the first quarter ended and the score was 32:29, the fans were surprised, and Meng Yun's performance became more and more amazing.

"You played well." Spoelstra praised, and then began to arrange the tactics of the second quarter.

When the second quarter began, Spoelstra's face became dignified.

Sitting on the bench, Meng Yun couldn't help but frown. Although he was not surprised that he was at a disadvantage, it still made people feel heavy.

"Our background is indeed not as good as the other party." Meng Yun sighed.

"Yes." Wade shook his head helplessly.

The Warriors sent Iguodala, Livingston, and Pachulia, McCaw, Thompson, Iguodala and Livingston are veterans, rich experience, you want them to get a second in a game Ten, thirty, that's unlikely.They can score ten or so points in a game at most, but the advantage of a veteran is that they can score points when they go up. The overall score is not much, but the efficiency is very high. It looks inconspicuous, but it will make you feel uncomfortable.

There is also Thompson, without Curry, without Durant, his talent on the offensive end is fully revealed, outside shooting, mid-range, air cut layup, singles turnaround jumper, very efficient.

As for the Heat, only Lu Wei can take the initiative to score, and everyone else is passive, always waiting for an opportunity.

As a result, the gap between the two sides widened rapidly.

"Meng, Monroe, you go." Spoelstra had to make a substitution.

The Warriors also made substitutions immediately, replacing Durant and Pachulia.

Afterwards, the Warriors replaced Thompson with Green. After all, they are the "Big Four". Although Green's gold content is not high enough, he plays a very important role in the Warriors' system. The lineup on the field is quite competitive.

This is difficult for the Heat to do.

"Pick-and-roll." Meng Yun asked for a pick-and-roll, and suddenly accelerated to break through. Pachulia came up to meet him. Meng Yun dribbled the ball and turned around Pachulia, and then flew for a dunk.

The ball was beautiful and drew cheers from the Heat fans in the audience.

But in the rest area, Spoelstra and Craig didn't look relaxed at all.

"Our lineup is still a little worse." Rostern sighed: "We don't have many solutions to the problem, and we mainly rely on Meng Yun's personal ability. If we also have the Big Three, it will be different." He looked at Lu Wei, then shook his head, then looked at Monroe, still could only smile wryly.

Is Lu Wei considered a "giant"?
Not counting, Lu Wei has a strong scoring ability, but he is a player with clear advantages and equally obvious shortcomings. He can be the "best sixth man", but he is not a giant.

Monroe is more optimistic about the coaching staff of the Heat, hoping that he can inherit Bosh's mantle, but after entering the playoffs, Monroe's state is somewhat unsatisfactory.Regardless of technical ability, the poor state of the playoffs is enough to prove that Monroe is mentally inferior to Bosh.

Expecting Monroe to inherit Bosh's mantle is basically dead.

Monroe's performance is not satisfactory. Wade is too old, and his state receptors can be greatly affected. Luol Deng is in worse state than Monroe. After all, time is not forgiving. Salinger, Johnson, Joseph Young He is too young to support the bench lineup, and has never experienced the finals, so he can only be led by big brothers like Lu Wei and Monroe.

It can be said that the situation of the Heat team is actually very complicated, the old ones, the young ones. If it weren't for Meng Yun's almost MVP-level performance in the playoffs, the Heat would have never been able to enter the finals.

At this moment, facing the powerful Warriors, the Heat's problems are further magnified.

Even Meng Yun was still scoring points, but the point difference expanded uncontrollably, 7 points, 9 points, 11 points.
By the end of the first half, the score became 65:53, and the Warriors led by 12 points.
