king of defenders

Chapter 993 The sharpshooter is here!
Seeing Korver's three-pointer, Coach Kidd thumped in his heart: "No, a player like Meng Yun is simply a blessing for shooters. If this continues and Korver shoots away, it will be terrible." It's not good."

Because the offensive method is single and slightly restricted, it is actually difficult for a marksman like Korver to score more than [-] points in a game. After all, Korver is not young.

But even if they scored three or four three-pointers, those ten points would be a serious blow to the Celtics.

After all, the Heat still have Meng Yun, Monroe, Green, Xiang Long, Lu Wei, and Thomas Jr. who can score. If Korver gets more than a dozen points, and the others get a little bit more, they add up. It's scary.

In a basketball game, at critical moments, such as when chasing points, or in the last few minutes to decide the victory, we must rely on the stars, rely on the stars to determine the victory and win the game.But in the long 48 minutes, most of the time, the presence of role players really enriched the game. Their role may not seem so prominent, and everyone's data is not as dazzling as the stars, but if you underestimate them, you will I pay the price.

Coach Kidd didn't underestimate Korver, he just hesitated a little, but when he was hesitating to call a timeout, Meng Yun assisted Korver again, and the two passed close to each other, looking like Korver He helped Meng Yun cover, but in fact it was Meng Yun who helped Korver cover and passed the ball to Korver.

Swish!
Another three-point hit.

"nice shot."

"Awesome."

Heat fans cheer loudly.

Kidd hurriedly called a timeout, but unexpectedly, he hesitated for a while, and finally let Korver score another three-pointer. Korver felt so good today, three for two!
Korver walked Meng Yun, first high-fived Meng Yun, and then walked to the sidelines, and was greeted warmly by his teammates. Korver also smiled, and he was very satisfied with his performance.

Of course, he was also very grateful to Meng Yun. If Meng Yun hadn't fed him the ball, or even used himself to help him cover, he wouldn't have had such a good shot.

The head star covers himself, which is a treatment that the Cavaliers have never enjoyed. Although James values ​​him very much, he will not deliberately give him cover.

"Korver's two three-point shots are beautiful." Coach Spoelstra also praised, and then spread out the tactical board, "Let me talk about it."

In the auditorium, the fans were discussing.

"I didn't expect Korver to start, not Thomas Jr."

"I also thought it would be Thomas Jr., but it seems that Korver is also a good starter. He and Meng Yun cooperate very well. He made 6 of [-] shots and scored [-] points."

"Meng Yun also looks good today. In the previous few games because of Wade's trade, his state was not very good. Today he looks much better."

"Well, I was a little worried at first. Now it's okay, Meng Yun has recovered, and Korver and Thomas Jr. have joined. The Heat are still that strong team."

Seeing the cooperation between Korver and Meng Yun, and seeing Meng Yun's state today, the Heat fans were greatly relieved and full of expectations. Wade's departure is regrettable, but Meng Yun is still there, so we still have to Continue to support the Heat.

The pause ends soon.

The two sides came back again, and the Celtics adjusted their defense and strengthened their defense against Korver. At the same time, they also consciously cut off the connection between Meng Yun and Korver, so as to prevent Meng Yun and Korver from playing the same cooperation as before.

This does limit Korver, but the main scoring point of the Heat is not Korver.

Meng Yun started to shoot. In addition, Monroe and Green also scored goals. In a few minutes, under the leadership of Meng Yun, the Heat quickly established an 8-point lead.

Seeing Meng Yun's outstanding performance, Spoelstra was also relieved.

Afterwards, Coach Spoelstra replaced Meng Yun with Thomas Jr.

After Thomas Jr. went up, his performance was very average. He made 3 of 1 shots and made two free throws. He scored 4 points. It's not too bad, but it's not too good either.

Then Lu Wei, Xiang Long and others were replaced one after another.

Seeing the bench lineup on the field, Coach Spoelstra was finally satisfied. Xiang Long, Lu Wei, Thomas Jr., plus Sullinger and Johnson, this bench lineup was enough to compete with any team.

However, what makes Coach Spoelstra unsatisfied is that there is no communication between Thomas Jr. and Xiang Long, and there is no interaction on the court at all. They don't pass each other, let alone cooperate consciously.

Thomas Jr. was not happy with Xiang Long. Although coach Spoelstra talked to him yesterday, it was still a bit difficult for him to turn the corner, so he never thought of passing the ball to Xiang Long. .

Of course, Xiang Long would not take the initiative to find Thomas Jr. When he first came to the Heat, he didn't pass the ball to his teammates. He didn't trust his teammates, let alone Thomas Jr., of course he didn't trust him.

There is no interaction between Xiang Long and Thomas Jr., Thomas Jr. has been here for a short time, and there is no tacit understanding with Lu Wei, Salinger, Johnson and others, so even though the Heat's bench lineup on the books is enough to crush the Celtics , but the situation on the field is evenly matched, and the two sides are fighting evenly.

"There is still a problem between Xiang Long and Little Thomas." Rostern said: "We have to find a way. Xiang Long has talent and strength, and Little Thomas has good strength. If the two of them are always hostile like this, It's not a good thing for the team."

"I know the truth, but do you really think they can forget the past and become friends?" Craig shook his head. In the NBA, there are also many conflicts between players on a team. No matter what the reason is, judging from the results, it is very It is rare for conflicts to arise, forge grievances with each other, and in the end, the previous suspicions can be settled.

Moreover, Xiang Long and Thomas Jr. had no small conflicts before. It was really difficult to let them settle their old suspicions, and it was almost impossible to do big things.

Rostern smiled wryly, "Then what should we do?"

Coach Spoelstra frowned and thought, this is indeed a problem to be solved, but he hasn't figured out how to solve it yet.

The first quarter ended quickly, the score was 32:27, and the Heat led by 5 points.

The cooperation between Meng Yun and Korver in this quarter surprised the fans, but the performance of Thomas Jr. made the fans feel a little disappointed, especially the incompatibility with the team, and the zero interaction with Xiang Long, which made the fans watch directly Sigh, Sullinger, Meng Yun, Johnson, Lu Wei, Thomas Jr., just like this lineup, it is only a tie with the Celtics' bench lineup.
