basketball never sleeps

Chapter 111 If you can't attack, you can't defend...
"If you want to deal with the Heat, you have to use three-pointers or fast breaks. There are only these two methods. Mo's top-level organization and connection, O'Neal and Wade's top-level attacking ability inside and outside the line, what do you use to grind against them? Unless you use The time machine took over Jordan in 96, otherwise I don't think there is any ball, no one can beat the Heat through positional warfare!"

On TV, Barkley spit on a basketball analysis program, sparing no effort to ignite the Heat with poisoned milk.

"If the Pistons were the best defensive team last season, then the Heat are the best offensive team this season."

The next day, various media scrambled to repost and quote Barkley's words, this kind of the most..., invincible..., history's first... gimmick does not matter whether it is reasonable or not, but it is to attract traffic, fans like this a mouthful.

Chinese fans were very happy to see the Heat get such a high evaluation. Even if someone popularized the glorious record of Lord Baron's big mouth, most materialistic fans would not believe it.

But in the next duel with the Warriors, the Heat almost lost the game.

This summer, the Warriors, who have failed to make the playoffs for ten consecutive years, invited NCAA coach Mike Montgomery as the head coach.In the past 18 NCAA seasons, he led Stanford University to enter the NCAA National Championships 16 times. In the last 10 years, he must enter every year. He is also a godfather figure in the NCAA.

But the current situation of the Warriors is not good. The Warriors with 12 wins and 24 losses can be said to be the second echelon of the No. [-] pick.

But don't look at the Warriors' appearance, but they also have unique skills.

Three points!

What a three-pointer!

That's right, the Warriors at this time have already started to open up three-point tactics under the guidance of Montgomery. Moreover, they are not like the Warriors who concentrated their three-point abilities on those few particularly accurate players. They are the first to do To a team where each of the starting five has three-point shooting ability.

Their insider Troy Murphy is an untimely center. As a white insider, his athletic ability is slightly poor, but he has a fairly efficient rebounding ability and above-level frame protection ability. An extremely rare accurate three-pointer.

He can shoot 40 three-pointers per game with a shooting rate of 2.2% this season. In Mo Wen's previous life, he averaged 45 three-pointers per game with a shooting rate of 4.9% at the most accurate time of his career.

In the small ball era, he is definitely the best insider that every team desires, but at present, only the warriors with blood of rebellion in their bones can accept him.

Their power forward, Clifford Robinson, is a shooting power forward who was traded by the Pistons before. This season, he has taken more three-pointers than Murphy, although his shooting percentage is only 35%. is also qualified.

Small forward, Jr. Dunleavy, his old-fashioned father doesn't like to let the team he coaches shoot three-pointers, but this does not prevent him from training his son with a bamboo pole against the weaker three-pointers to be a three-point shooter.

Jason Richardson, who is the core of the second position, is a two-time slam dunk champion. Is it normal that his three-pointer is a unique skill?

The new point guard Baron Davis, although his three-point shooting percentage was only 32% last season, it cannot be ignored that his number of three-point attempts has set an NBA historical record with 8.7 times. The record has been maintained for 11 years, and it was not broken until a certain elementary school student came out of the mountain...
It stands to reason that the era of small ball has not yet come, and the three-point tactics should still be dormant in the sewer, but as Barkley said, the Heat's positional warfare is too strong, so weak teams have to give up the option of playing conventional tactics throughout the process.

Meeting the Heat seems to have become a problem-solving idea for these projection-type teams.

O'Pang was overwhelmed in the Warriors' interior, and Murphy and Clifford could only use fouls to fight back against O'Pang's offense.

Wade and Baron Davis are also old acquaintances. The two fought 7 games in the playoffs last year. Cheeks, but after being influenced by Mo Wen, Wade, not to mention suffering from small tricks, is good if he doesn't cheat people. In addition, Baron Davis' knee injury has not been cured. The war lasted only one quarter and ended.

The only one who suffers is Mo Wen. Although both of them are surnamed Richardson and they are all spring people, the dunk king's physical fitness is still much stronger than that of "Ah Q". It's hard to hear, this guy really doesn't seem to be interested in the data, he doesn't change his hands when defending, he just keeps the defensive envelope at all times, and doesn't let Mo Wen move easily.

It belongs to Mo Wen's way to deal with Mo Wen.

Of course, Mo Wen only became uncomfortable in scoring. On the organization side, he can still do whatever he wants in the face of this kind of loopholes in the Warriors' defense.

The NCAA defensive tactics brought by Montgomery did not play a big role. Generally speaking, those who directly switch from the NCAA to NBA coaches will not achieve results quickly.

The understanding of basketball in the two leagues is completely different.

In order to better test the taste of the new tea, the Heat set aside a lot of exercise time for the two rookies in this game.

Director Lu's speed and shooting are still at their peak, and his short legs look a little vigorous when running.

The substitute veteran Steve Smith prepared for Mo Wen is a bit ordinary. This is a real 38-year-old veteran who can only do some sewing and mending work in a limited time.

But when the heat was tasting tea, the advantage they had established was wiped out, and even allowed the Warriors to take the lead.

Da Fan was not in a hurry at first, after all, the previous games have proved that as long as he brings the starters on the field, it is very difficult for the team to lose.

But I didn't want to, in the last 5 minutes, Baron Davis and Richardson took turns to make O'Neill's foul, and beat the fat man 6 fouls.

After losing the biggest barrier inside, the game that was originally a sure win suddenly became suspenseful.

However, Mo Wen's calm appearance gave everyone else a backbone. The two teams scored staggeredly in the end. Until the last round, Baron Davis missed a key three-pointer. In the end, the Heat 109:107 Warriors, twists and turns won the game.

Mo Wen once again achieved a triple-double of 18+12+11 in this game. This is his fifth triple-double this season.

The season is not over halfway yet, and many people are predicting that Mo Wen's triple-doubles this year will exceed Kidd's "wholesale triple-doubles" in previous years.

There are already many people discussing on the major websites of Laomei, who is the number one active point guard among Nash, Kidd, and Mo Wen.

Kidmore had to attack, Nash didn't defend, and Mo Wen lacked speed.

At first, it was a fan discussion, but later the topic became more and more popular, and then it rose to the level of experts. ESPN brought in a few experts to discuss for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion - wait for the three of them to play another round and you will know...

It can only be said that he deserves to be a rigorous expert.

The Chinese fans who watched the game at home on the weekend gave Barkley the nickname of "Ba Talking" while making a false alarm.

They really hope that Barkley can be as rigorous as the experts.

But they don't understand Barkley's love for O'Pang. Barkley will never be able to control his mouth in front of O'Neill. In fact, when O'Pang was just traded to the Heat, Barkley had milked him once——

"I think that although the Heat sent away several core players in order to get O'Neal, they are definitely one of the favorites to enter the Eastern Conference Finals if O'Neal is not injured."

After Mo Wen found out about this incident, he checked the news. Fatty Ba said this before O'Neill was injured...

On the 15th, the Heat ushered in a challenge from the Clippers at home.

It seems that Barkley's tainted milk has not completely dissipated. Wade only played half of the game, and was replaced for a rest after feeling uncomfortable in his wrist.

If it was put on Pat Riley's coaching period, he would have to play without breaking his wrist, but after experiencing the pain of a losing streak some time ago, Da Fan has also paid more and more attention to the health of the players.

And there are more important games than this one that require Wade to play.

In this game, the Clippers didn't shoot many three-pointers and didn't make many free throws. Relying on a higher shooting percentage and steady positional warfare, they just grinded the game to the end bit by bit.

Looking at the lineup, the Clippers, who have accumulated talent for several years, are not weak now, at least much better than the Lakers.

Both Brand and Corey Maggette showed the strength of the All-Stars. The two have been working together for 4 years and have a tacit understanding. They scored 57 points in this game.

And the famous salary thief in the future-Simmons... Bobby Simmons is in a contract year this year, and he played extraordinarily hard, scoring a double-double of 33 points and 16 rebounds in 10 minutes.

Even the little-known white insider Kaman in the same class as Mo Wen also scored 10+8.

The Clippers' shooting percentage was as high as 49% today. It's not that the Heat players didn't defend well, it's because they ate dumplings during the Chinese New Year.

Mo Wen was really tired in these two games. It was Richardson and Maggette again. It was either a spring guy or a muscular guy. The game experience was extremely bad.

Fortunately, Ao Pang was accurate in free throws today, which dragged the game to one round and gave Mo Wen the chance to make a quasi-killer shot, otherwise he would lose to the Clippers...

On the game schedule calendar in the screening room, Da Fan crossed out the Clippers, and then circled the dates that were originally circled in red again and again.
