Center first

Chapter 211
The battle between Lin Yi and Duncan lasted until the end of the second quarter, and the score on the court was also maintained at a gap of four points leading by the Spurs. It was almost as soon as Lin scored one, Duncan would immediately return one. The two guys battled for almost the remaining six or seven minutes of the second quarter.

The confrontation between the two of them extends from the top of the arc to the basket. Almost every confrontation will make the fans on the sidelines cheer loudly. For such a game, such a confrontation, it is best not to be full of boos in the stadium. Affect the fierce confrontation on the field.

During these five or six minutes, Popovich and Spoelstra stood on the sidelines without sitting down. Both of them kept shouting at the loopholes in the defense of the players on the field, reminding them loudly Watching his team members fill their seats, concentrate.

In fact, there is no need for them to shout, the nerves of the ten guys on the field are almost always in a tense state. They probably only see the existence of each other now, and even the noisy voices on the sidelines have been ignored by them. How much did they listen to the coach's shouts?

However, the confrontation between Lin Yi and Duncan has caused the remaining eight guys to enter hand-to-hand combat at the same time, whether it is the confrontation between Parker and Bell, or Wells using his hands to restrain Ginobili's pace, and even Bonner That big face melon is waving big elbows with Haslem.

The fierce confrontation on the field made everyone watching the game feel that their adrenaline was soaring. Even a long-term dull guy like Popovich has already stood on the sidelines and commanded. How crazy is it.

Spoelstra is even more outrageous. He has almost pulled his tie off his neck and has no image at all.And his yelling on the sidelines has already made those law enforcers start to consider whether they should be sent off. Of course, Spoelstra will be very smart to choose to shut up at some point, and he doesn't want to sit in the locker room. Watch the game.

Don't forget, this is only the second quarter of the game. If you wait until the fourth quarter, what will happen on the field, only God knows.

The referees on the field have already nervously put their whistles on their lips. They don't want any situation to get out of control on the field, but fortunately, there is no deep hatred between the two teams, and the confrontation on the field is also very important. It's just about basketball and doesn't mean anything else, but that level of violent confrontation still puts the referees' nerves in a state of high tension.

"Damn it, this isn't the playoffs. God knows what's wrong with these guys, they're playing so crazy." Several referees cursed inwardly at the same time.

The commentators on the sidelines also felt thirsty, because the offensive and defensive speed on the field was so fast that they hardly had time to drink a sip of water, and the two teams almost used all their firepower, and the frequency of attack The increase has made the tongues of these fast mouthers almost tied up. It is often because they have just finished talking about this offense, and the offense and defense on the court have already reached the other half of the court.

If it's those drivers who listen to the radio in their cars, they must now wish they could appear in the stadium to watch the game instead of listening to these guys who are always slow to play here.

Under the instruction of Popovich, the Spurs began to use the speed of Parker and Ginobili to constantly try to break through the offense on the outside, and the physical contact between Duncan and Lin Yi on the inside was also gradually escalating, and Bonner The impact on the backboard also put a lot of pressure on Haslem.

However, even with this level of offense, it failed to defeat the Miami Heat's defensive system led by Lin Yi. Many times Parker and Ginobili's breakthroughs hit a wall at the last moment.

The Heat rely more on Lin Yi to execute the offense in the gap between the three-point line and the three-second zone. Passing the ball to open the gap depends on his intentions.

The Miami Heat are now handing over all the offensive power to Lin Yi, and everything runs around him. This may seem like a gamble to others, but Spoelstra doesn't think there is anything wrong with this choice. , Shocking the opponent with the strongest offense, this is the decision of the Miami people.

It seems that Spoelstra's gamble did not fail, at least on the scene. Lin Yi's strong performance allowed the Miami people to get rid of the embarrassing situation in the first half of the second quarter, and the opponent wanted to cut off Lin Yi's connection with the outside line Because of Lin Yi's initiative to change, his plan turned into a fantasy.

Moreover, the Spurs had the most unfavorable consequences because of this arrangement. Popovich had to let his ace follow from the inside to the three-point line to defend, and the effect was not necessarily so good. Vicky may not have thought of such a change.

But Duncan didn't disappoint Popovich too much, because the stone man who had been silent and calm also burst out with terrifying attack power in the second half of the second quarter, which didn't make Lin Yi's offense set off a big wave. It's just that Duncan, who has played at such a level, has not yet taken advantage, which really makes Popovich feel a little scared.

It’s just that only Popovich knows what kind of hidden dangers such a strong confrontation will leave. A weak lead does not guarantee that they will win the game, and such a strong confrontation has already made the five strongest players in his hands The group begins to experience fatigue.

When Popovich came to Miami, he originally wanted to take advantage of the opponent's personnel to win the away game, but now the situation on the field seems to be a swamp, dragging the entire Spurs into an entangled confrontation , almost every corner of the arena is filled with endless fights.

This may be something that Popovich never thought of before the game. He originally thought that cutting off the opponent's internal and external connections could trap the yellow-skinned kid, but now it seems that the trapped person has become himself. It's what the Chinese call self-binding.

All the changes were related to that yellow-skinned kid, he was a clear-headed guy who knew how to think independently. If such a player belonged to him, it would be a kind of luck, but if it belonged to his opponent, it would be a big trouble forever.What's more terrible is that this little guy is still very young. This is only his first season in the NBA. I really don't know what kind of guy he will be when he becomes a veteran.

When Popovich was frowning and thinking about countermeasures, the second quarter of the game was over, and the score on the court was locked at 55:51. The Spurs temporarily took the lead to end the first half of the game. It didn't feel easy.

If it weren't for the intermission, perhaps the crazy confrontation on the field would be even more terrifying. In the last few minutes of the second quarter, the players on both sides basically spent the rhythm of super confrontation. They are all doing the same action, that is, panting hard.

In the Heat's locker room, five guys, including Lin Yi, were panting heavily. Lin Yi leaned against his own locker. He lowered his head and didn't say a word. A burning sensation from his throat filled his chest, which was unusual for him.

Even in the long season, he seldom has this kind of situation. It can be seen that in the few minutes just now, he and Duncan's tit-for-tat confrontation consumed a lot of his energy. , and more often have to bother to ponder the opponent.

However, the situation on the court was not too bad. The scores of the two teams were still clenched, which made Popovich dare not easily replace Duncan for a rest. Lin Yi and Duncan almost fought hard for 24 minutes. , without stopping for a moment, and no one took a step back.

Even Lin Yi felt that his body began to enter a period of fatigue due to strong confrontation, so Duncan's situation must not be easier than him. Now is the time for the two of them to fight their physical strength. Lin Yi believes that Duncan's body will definitely be more exhausted than himself now .

In the confrontation at the basket just now, almost all the explosive power of the limbs was used to solve the problem. Lin Yi knew how strong his impact was, and he also knew that the stone man would spend more strength when resisting. It's too much, let alone the other party.

Moreover, he can attack with the ball in a very large range, which expands the defensive area that Duncan needs to mark. The farther he is from the three-second zone, the more Duncan needs to use early prediction to block positions. One is the most beneficial.

But even if this is the case, Lin Yi still needs to consider how he will deal with the remaining half of the game. After all, the Spurs have rotation personnel, and the current big men of the Heat are only him, Haslem, and Marion. , Now that all three are on the court, if the rotation starts, the Heat must suffer.

What needs to be done now is not only to bite the score, but to quickly open the score in a short time to prepare for the rotation.A thought has been lingering in Lin Yi's mind, he wants to try a possible style of play, but the trouble now is that that style of play needs someone to cooperate.

And now the most suitable executor of the Miami Heat, he used ice cubes to compress his buttocks before the game. It seems that the most troublesome thing is how to communicate with this guy. What's going on again.

"Boss, I have something to discuss with you." It seems that Spoelstra is a good messenger, and Lin Yi needs to exchange opinions with the head coach. After all, he is the head coach, and he can only say that he is providing a possible thought.

Lin Yi was talking to Spoelstra in a low voice, and no one else heard the specific content, but Old Horry and the others were sure that this kid definitely wanted to do something to the Spurs.

"It seems that Popovich's troubles today are not over." Old Horry and McDyess whispered, with a wicked smile on the old guy's face.

"I found that being our head coach is sometimes really happy. With that kid, he doesn't have to think too much about tactics." This is not the first time that McDyess has discovered that Lin is interested in tactics. The kid often stares blankly at the TV screen for several hours alone, and this guy doesn't feel bored at all. This is what McDyess admires the most.

"Happy? If you know that our boss is often woken up by that kid's phone call at three or four o'clock in the morning, you will know how miserable he is." Chalmers answered the phone from the side, he But I have seen Spoelstra appearing on the sidelines of the training field with panda eyes more than once.

When Lin Yi's head coach is happy, unfortunate, indeed unfortunate, especially when Spoelstra wants to have some intimate contact with his wife, it is painful and happy.

"Are you sure you want to fight like this?" Several people who were chatting suddenly heard Spoelstra raised his voice and said to Lin Yi, his expression seemed to be looking at a monster.

"If you want to win, I think this is the best way, unless there are other possibilities." Lin Yi spread his hands and said to Spoelstra.

"I'm afraid your kid's physical strength won't bear it, and we don't seem to have practiced this tactic before, so I use it temporarily. I don't know what the success rate will be." Spoelstra and Lin Yi said.

"I really want to win, so I am not afraid to fight. I think the one who is in trouble should be Popovich, but you still need to talk about the idea just mentioned. I am only responsible for providing ideas. The specific implementation is up to you. Well, you are the head coach." Spoelstra didn't seem to be joking when he looked at Lin Yi.

"You're absolutely crazy," Spoelstra said through gritted teeth.

"Well, he's still a lunatic who wants to win the game." Lin Yi grinned with his teeth bared.

Those white teeth now have a bloody taste in Spoelstra's eyes. It seems that the difficult Popovich has suffered from this kid is not over yet, maybe Lin Yi This kid will really do wonders for Miami.

If you want to smash the Spurs with such a broken formation, it seems that you really need a special kind of madness to complete this task. That kid's proposal may be a good way, but the kid will have to put in more effort .

As for the things that kid is not easy to talk about, let me do it, who let me be the head coach of this weird team, alas, that damned ass, that damned training game.

Spoelstra patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, his eyes clearly expressed a kind of trust.

"Go out there and give them a good look and break that damn spur!"

"I think, I will." Lin Yi's smile revealed confidence.

(October 10, Beijing time, there are different opinions on whether Yi Jianlian will return to China to participate in the National Games. According to the latest news from the US veteran sports columnist Mark Spears, the Chinese side even used their upper-level connections to give NBA President David Stern exerted pressure to get the Nets to release Yi Jianlian to return to China to participate in the National Games, but Stern failed to meet the Chinese request. This is really Chinese!!!)
