Center first

Chapter 346
Chaotic 4 minutes, chaotic game, Miami's chaotic attack has achieved the most perfect result, their weaknesses are obvious to anyone who can watch the game, and their offense is so chaotic , but the effect is already good enough, so good that the supporters of the Magic watched all this happening in front of their eyes in a daze, and they even felt a little at a loss.

Messy shot selection, muddle-headed low-post singles, it seems that Miami's offense is always looking for a dead end, but the score on the scoreboard has been beating non-stop, and even the frequency of its change is far more than With the speed of the Magic, no one knows what happened in the past few minutes.

Everyone in the Amway Arena opened their mouths wide, watching their opponents shuttle back and forth on their own territory, throwing basketballs into their baskets again and again, while their own shooters began to If it wasn't for Howard's second chance to attack at the basket, I really don't know if they would be opened up by their opponents in 4 minutes. The double-digit point difference.

Just like this, you conquered and cut off all retreats. Maybe Van Gundy is singing this song in his heart now. The opponent's wanton attack completely left the Magic without a defensive point. They were stunned by this chaotic battle His mind was blown, so much that he didn't even know how to deal with the current situation.

The opponent used this kind of offense to cut off all the retreats of the Magic. They could only be forced to play fast breaks with the opponent, but the opponent's extremely high shooting percentage put Orlando in big trouble. The key to the door of victory, they can only passively follow their opponents to run around, and in the end they are the only ones who fall into chaos.

The outside line is not good enough to play inside. Although Howard's scoring ability in this game has exceeded many people's expectations, he is not the usual main attacker of the Magic after all. Messy, although the hit rate is not bad, but after all, this is not the most accustomed offensive method of the Magic.

Without their own rhythm, without their own offensive arrangements, apart from being able to rely on the precise shooting of individual people, the Magic's offense is a bit weak, but for defense, their offense seems to be somewhat normal. The most proud defensive system has been completely torn apart by the opponent this time. Even the most basic formation no longer exists, let alone defensive efficiency. More often than not, they can only helplessly hold their own Watching the opponent's open shots again and again with both hands, and then numbly catching the ball and running forward.

Is this Amway Arena? Maybe in these few minutes, the big men of the Magic team are asking themselves, they can even feel from the opponent's crazy offensive footsteps that this is the opponent's home court. Every attack and defense is dominated by the opponent.

Whether in terms of personnel or physical condition, the Magic has reached a competitive peak, but the opponents are attacking like this, and they are constantly ravaging their nerves. One shot after another is like this in every corner of the Magic Rising from the middle, and constantly plunged into the basket, refreshing the numbers on the scoreboard.

The five-point gap is not that big, and it can be surpassed in just an instant in a basketball game, but this gap is now extremely dazzling in the eyes of the Orlando fans. There are 8 minutes left in the third quarter. Can you still complete the go-ahead score in this quarter?Maybe even they themselves don't know what to do now.

Maybe it's not just that they don't know what's going on in their hearts. Look at those Magic players who walked back to their rest area with their heads down. Maybe they don't know what's going on. They may all ask deep down in their hearts. Why the damn game is played like this, they may even start to doubt whether they can defend their positions.

It may not only be the fans in the Amway Arena that are full of tension, but even the rest area of ​​the Magic team looks so serious. The face of Big Van Gundy that is about to blush represents his anger. The tactical board in his hand was expressing his anger. The board he used to draw all kinds of running routes was about to be brandished in the air like a weapon by him.

"Defense! Defense! Where is the defense I want? Look for yourself, what were you doing in those few minutes just now, damn it, all I saw was a group of headless flies running around aimlessly, Your opponents are just a group of substitutes, but you are trampled, trampled, and trampled hard by such a guy. Don't you feel your face is burning? You are worthy of spending dozens of dollars to watch it Are you fans of the game, are you fucking worthy of the salary you get, a bunch of shit, look at what basketball you just played, that fucking mistake that even high school students would not make, but in your If you appear one after another, you can be regarded as professional players!"

Big Van Gundy's not-so-rich hair was almost standing upright at this time, he growled and yelled at everyone, and in the past few minutes, he even played on the court by himself Impulse, at least he will know how to play the game better than these guys.

"If you continue to perform like this, I will not be stingy with losing a game, but those who are replaced by me, don't want to get 1 minute of playing time in this series! My reason is simple, attitude determines Everything, what I want is not only the result, but also your attitude! Don’t think that you are already great after winning the defending champion, and don’t think that your opponent’s lineup is not complete. It’s your show time. In the NBA, no team is Those who can be easily defeated, get your fucking spirits up, I will give you another 5 minutes, if not, there are plenty of people on my bench who can play! Do you understand!"

The roar ran through the entire timeout, and the Magic team's tactical coordination did not change much. Now even if Van Gundy wanted to make a substitution, he would not dare to make adjustments easily. After all, the opponent had already made adjustments in advance. Seeing the big man who has been resting on the bench with a towel standing up again, maybe in the next few minutes, they will face a new round of madness from the Heat. He must let Howard and the others guard the penalty area.

Hold on?What an ironic scene, when everyone thinks that the Magic will sweep the opponent, their head coach has to consider how to defend the opponent's offense, and his heart is still beating, wondering if he will really defend Come down, it seems that reality and imagination often run counter to each other, at least this night. For the Magic, their toughest defense is being destroyed by their opponents, even if the opponent has only one sharpest knife. Enough to pierce their hearts.

The only person who has not been sprayed by the big Van Gundy hair dryer language may be Howard himself. This big man who has been showing off his muscles is unusually quiet today. He has been working hard since he returned to the rest area. He calmed down his breathing, the few strong attacks just now had caused his physical strength to fluctuate, and now that the opponent's big man had stood up again, he knew very well what kind of confrontation he was going to face next .

"Hold it, you must hold it!" Howard didn't have much sense of accomplishment for his offensive gains just now. It wasn't a goal scored on that guy's head, and he didn't deserve his pride. He was more concerned about why he didn't Adding a cover to the Magic's paint so that opponents' scoring can always find holes in the defense is probably the least bit he can't forgive himself.

Maybe the opponent is using this kind of chaos to add difficulty to the game, but it is undeniable that Howard's block did not put fatal pressure on the opponent in these few minutes, which allowed the opponent to find a cut-in offensive opening, Bunch . Several of Wells' attacks were completed against Howard's big hands.

A center who can't give the opponent a sense of oppression is an unqualified defender. In the past few minutes, Howard beat his big hand angrily more than once, and he was only a little short of blocking the opponent's shot. But he didn't make such a thing really happen, not only because of the opponent's cunning, but also exposed a problem of Howard, he relied more on his own physical fitness for defensive filling, and Instead of capturing the feeling of that moment, he relied too much on his jumping ability and pounce speed, while ignoring the opponent's offensive rhythm.

Warcraft's blocks are basically based on his excellent jumping ability. Whenever the opponent rushes to the penalty area, this guy will always rise from the ground when the opponent makes a shot. This is how his big hand is often staged for the opponent. Hot pot feasts again and again, but few people have noticed that the guy often wants to defend and block shots instead of blocking the opponent's position in advance.

Maybe it's the passion to cover up a lot of things, maybe it's the recklessness of those blocked that created the appearance of this monster at the basket. Many people have said that Howard's blocks always make people excited, but they are Forgot, the premise of blocking shots is to pre-judge the opponent's offensive intention and direction, not just simply fanning the opponent's shots, but this does not seem to blame Howard, after all, few people in this league pay attention to these details They are more often asking for a better game.

Perhaps this is the distress of those who are too gifted. They always rely on their talents inadvertently and ignore many more important things. Maybe this is why old Chuck often asks Lin Yi to sit quietly. To ponder the opponent's intentions in front of the TV, the old guy's wisdom will always shine his light in some inadvertent places, not too much, just a little bit.

Van Gundy's roar for a few minutes made these big guys on the Magic team finally sober up. They played almost 10 minutes of the game. These people also want to get a chance to rest as soon as possible. Maybe they are more psychological now. The pressure, the scenes just now flashed in these people's minds from time to time, they didn't want to wait, the opponent would continue to be so crazy.

Pat Riley didn't have the angry mood like Van Gundy, he just smiled kindly at his subordinates, a relaxed feeling had already permeated the rest area in Miami, and Riley was very happy with these guys in just a few minutes Li is very satisfied with his performance, he has nothing to arrange, his only request is to let these guys continue to maintain this attacking momentum until they defeat their opponents.

"Okay, Lin Yi, now back to your time period, these old bones have held back your opponent for you, I need to see you continue to expand this advantage until the opponent completely surrenders, understand Is it?" Pat Riley patted Lin Yi's shoulder vigorously and asked.

"I don't think it's time for me to go back now. These guys are playing better than when I was here. I fought hard for half a day to get a point lead. These guys only took a few minutes to get ahead of their opponents." Five points, I'm really ashamed." Lin Yi took off the towel covering his head, smiled and said to each teammate, these guys did everything they should do when they were resting just now.

"Boss, I think this matter can be considered. With him, I won't be able to play low singles." Bunch Wells touched his weird bald head and said to Pat Riley, but he There was already a smug smile on his face, and he had a great time fighting just a few minutes ago.

"Chaotic battles can only disrupt the opponent's arrangement, but they can't win the game. I can't always expect your hit rate to remain so high. Now the morale is on our side. What we have to do is to enlarge him without limit until The opponent's spirit is broken, and Lin Yi is the last straw to crush the opponent. Remember, we must always focus on me, and don't follow the opponent's rhythm. Okay, big guys, now your task is to play Go kill the opponent, don't show mercy!!! Eat the opponent for me in one go!!!"

"Roar!" The five beast-like guys reminded their opponents with such roars that their attack was not over. The bombing just now was just an appetizer. Now, the big meal is coming. The big guy No. 34 has stepped into the center of the field again, and his appearance made all the supporters of the Magic team focus on him again.

The big guy is back! ! !All the Magic fans clearly saw the big man of the Heat standing on the sidelines again. When his team was completely suppressed by the opponent, the opponent threw his sharpest weapon on the field again. Supporters of the Magic team feel their hearts beating fiercely. Could it be that today's Amway Arena will be captured by such a team?No one dared to make a prediction, and no one dared to deny this conjecture. They were all waiting anxiously.

The two teams that rejoined the game were like two beasts that had already felt a little tired, entangled together again, the collision between the limbs did not weaken in any way because of their physical exhaustion, Lin Yi The confrontation with Howard once again ignited the flames in the penalty area.

The continuous scoring made Howard's offensive initiative extremely high, and the number of times he took the initiative to ask for the ball in the low post also began to increase. What's more, his weak peripheral firepower today also forced him to stand up, even if his height has now been replaced. Even though Lin Yi was defending, he didn't give up his idea of ​​continuing to attack the inside.

Howard used his body to hold Lin Yi's clinging hands in the low post. His entire half of his body was already on top of his opponent, while the other big hand was waiting for his outside player to hoist the ball closer and counterattacked. , The Magic's counterattack must start from the inside, even if the opponent's sharpest knife is waiting there, Howard will use this kind of offense to restore the low morale of the Magic.

Lin Yi did not push his opponent as hard as he did in the previous two quarters. It seemed that his physical strength had not fully recovered after a few minutes, which gave Howard a deeper opportunity to position himself. Firmly resisting Lin Yi's body, the opponent has no chance to control the space under the basket.

Although the position was successful, the Magic's outside pass is in big trouble, especially Alstom. After facing Chalmers for half an hour, the streetball king's footsteps have stopped. As flexible as the opening stage, he failed to get rid of the opponent's follow-up after several shakes.

At this time, what Alston thought of was not to pass the ball immediately. The street temperament made him choose to win the opponent in a one-on-one match. The good position Howard finally got was ignored by him. When he failed to get rid of it and looked up, the position that Warcraft finally grabbed was blocked by the opponent's movement, and Alston's chance to lob the ball had been lost. He could only let the basketball bounce off the ground and enter the penalty area. .

Catching the ball and turning around, the moment Howard's big hand received the basketball, the whole half of his body was exerting force. He wanted to use such a coherent attacking movement to directly throw off Lin Yi who was stuck on his back, but when he half When the turning body was about to face the basket, the guy who had been sticking to his body made a way for him.

The previous wrestling between the two disappeared without a trace at this moment. Howard even turned around without hindrance, but he was stunned at this moment. He didn't know what happened. Howard hesitated, but Howard hadn't reacted to such a defensive change, but the big guy who came out had already touched his face. In a face-to-face confrontation, Howard, who had not yet stopped, clearly saw a big hand covering him. over his hands holding the ball.

Steal the ball!When Howard reacted and wanted to hold the basketball, a thrust made the basketball out of his control. The big man in the white uniform only left him with a back that flashed out to chase the basketball. All of this happens in the space of a second or two.

Fast attack!goal!After Lin Yi picked up the falling basketball with his big hand, the Miami Heat launched a quick counterattack, which once again widened the score to seven points. Even the one point of attack that he was most sure of lost its due power.

The melee just now made their peripheral attacking firepower lose sight, and now the return of the big man has suppressed their internal firepower, which made all the Magic fans in the entire Amway Arena feel panic. Once felt that his team might lose the game.

When Patrick Ewing saw the scene that just happened on the coaching bench, he felt very clearly that it was not an accident. The rhythm of Lin Yi's sudden retreat and reaching out to steal the ball was not an unexpected action. Well, that guy has planned to do that from the very beginning, he seems to have captured Howard's offensive intentions, and he even seems to have figured out when Howard's movements will be connected.

Ewing didn't know if his feeling was accurate, but the sharp reaction that the little guy showed just now was not a simple defensive action, but more like a hunter who had already anticipated all the actions of the opponent, stealing the ball with his hands At that moment, it was like a hunter pulled the trigger. Could it be that that kid has figured out all of Howard's behavior habits?impossible!Is that kid a monster?
If Ewing knew how long Lin Yi spent watching Howard's game video before this game, maybe he wouldn't be so surprised. That kid is simply more professional than those assistant coaches. It has become a habit for every opponent to analyze in advance, not to mention such an important game. He has almost gone through all Howard's game videos this season. He is thinking about every move of the opponent, even those habitual moves. Small actions will not be missed.

From the very beginning of the game, Lin Yi has been thinking about the opponent's offensive habits, offensive direction, and even the level of shots. He has watched countless opponents' basket attacks from video materials, but when it comes to practicing in person, There will always be various changes, but in more than 20 minutes of confrontation, he has already touched the habits of his opponents.

What happened just now was just as what Ewing was worried about. It was not a coincidence. When the two of them were in contact, Lin Yi suddenly took a step back to allow himself time to catch Howard's hands holding the ball. The way out of the way is a trap. When Howard's body is completely facing the basket, his hands holding the ball are exposed in an unprotected space. He only needs to reach out, and Lin Yi is also in that position. Break the basketball from Howard's hand in time.

A smart defender, this is Rodman's evaluation of this little junior when he was training in a private arena. This little guy loves to think about other people's habits more than he does. His good habits start to play at this moment. Power, the balance between the two big men seems to have begun to be broken by him. . .

The outcome may be decided in the next second. . .

(Although the 76ers lost the battle between AI and Kobe today, the AI ​​did not lose, and that savage little man is back. Maybe only such a peak duel can stimulate his nerves. The water-tortured knee didn't hold him back today... I hope you can keep playing like this...)
