Chapter 304 Needlepoint against wheat awn, this is the real match!

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks led the away game by 12 points. At the beginning of the second quarter, Jeff Van Gundy was a little surprised: "Hey, the Heat's lineup has changed! Coach Spoelstra's current lineup for the Heat is: Qian Mo S, Wade, LeBron, Haslem and Bosh! It's a small lineup!"

Gatesby's face was a little dignified. Some experts from later generations selected the best positions for the Heat in the ten years from 2005 to 2015, which is the current five players on the court.

In terms of point guards, the point guards played by the Heat in the past ten years have many star point guards, such as Gary Payton, Jason Williams, Mike Miller, Goran Dragic, "Glove" Gary Payton is famous, and the first championship in the history of the Heat was won because of his hard work. Jason Williams, the famous white chocolate, Dragic is also a powerful point guard, but he was selected as the best point guard of the decade for the Heat. It was Chalmers who defended.

It goes without saying that shooting guard Wade and small forward LeBron are the Heat's best players of the decade.

At the power forward position, it is not Antoine Walker, Sean Marion, Sean Battier, Juwan Howard, Rashard Lewis, but Haslem, who is known as the soul of the Heat. Haslem!

Haslem seldom has amazing performances, but with limited physical fitness, he has gained a foothold in the Heat with his bloody and tough style of play. He specializes in hard work and plays the role of patron saint beside Bosh.

And the center position is Chris Bosh, which is also not simple, because the centers that the Heat have played for ten years include Shaq O'Neal, Alonzo Mourning, Jermaine O'Neal, Chris Anderson and others. Bosh's ability to stand out among these people is enough to show his strength.

Although these five people are not the complete version, but this lineup is also very powerful. It is completely capable of dealing with the Knicks' starting lineup. They can rotate infinitely. It is not obvious who Gatsby is looking for. Upper Bosh is not too obvious a mismatch.

Bosh actually played better at the power forward position. It is difficult for him to hold a strong center in the low post, but his weight and speed allow him to defend the perimeter without much loss. In addition, he has other It is not easy for Gatsby to attack this Bosh when his teammates assist in the defense.

It can be said that it is such a lineup that the Heat can fight desperately with the Knicks, because only such a lineup can cause trouble for Gatsby, Chalmers' defense is desperate enough, Bosh can keep up, Hassler Mu is a person who can put his life on the line, and only the three armed forces can defeat the Knicks.

The Knicks still have the starting lineup, Gatsby, Billups, Anthony, Stoudemire, and Bogut.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the situation became a little delicate. The speed of the Heat, which was trying to slow down in the first quarter, increased. The two of James and Wade pushed up the speed. The one-stop power of James and Wade was too powerful. Once they pushed Counterattack, the alliance can limit them to very few.

Defensively, the Heat faced pick-and-roll coverage, and even Bosh resolutely switched defenses. It's not that Gatsby couldn't beat Bosh. Gatsby attacked for several rounds under Bosh's defense and was able to score goals, but the efficiency was not high because Bosh can keep up, but once he breaks in, he will be flanked. This style of play is too difficult!

After 4 minutes in the second quarter, the Heat tied the score. Coach D'Antoni woke up like a dream, and quickly replaced Bogut, played Wilson, and competed with the Heat for a small lineup.

The Knicks played a small lineup, which barely stopped the decline. After the first half, the two sides tied 68:68!

Mike Brin praised: "This is the real game. Whether it is the Christmas game or the first quarter, neither the Knicks nor the Heat are their real strengths. This quarter is the real match. The lineups of both sides They are all able to match, their athletic ability and height are similar, and their talents are also comparable. This game is really good!"

Back from the third quarter, both teams played in small lineups. The coaches of both sides knew that the key to the outcome of tonight's game was whoever was willing to fight, whoever reacted faster, and whoever was able to take the lead.

Heat ball right.

Chalmers dribbled the ball for half court, Bosh went to the high post to support, Wade moved without the ball, James made a screen and cut to catch the ball in the middle to attract the pinch and hit the ball to Bosh in the high post for a mid-range shot!

68: 70!

Gatsby crossed half court with the ball, Wilson, Billups opened up the space, Stoudemire ambushed the basket, Anthony stepped up to help Gatsby pick and roll, James directly switched to Gatsby, Gatsby was not in a hurry, and so on. After Anthony blocked Chalmers with a straight, Gatsby lobbed the ball to Anthony's waist for a single - this was Gatsby's opinion during the halftime break, and at this time it was going to be a misplacement!
After Gatsby and Anthony pick and roll, James does not switch defenses, Gatsby shoots directly, James switches defenses, then Anthony goes forward and plays singles. You will suffer even more!
The most critical significance of Anthony coming to the Knicks has been revealed. The Knicks' biggest flaw last season has been made up for - a core that can play in the low post!
Chalmers is 188cm tall and weighs 86kg. Facing Anthony, who is 203cm tall and weighs 109kg, it is a natural misplacement. Anthony’s greatest skill in his career can be said to be his singles ability, not to mention Chalmers, even if he is James may not be able to prevent it.

Anthony, holding the ball in the waist position, did not hit back, but turned to face the frame. He took a tentative step to shake Chalmers up and shot, and it was a hit!

70: 70!

Gatsby nodded, this is the meaning of Anthony. In the Knicks system, he does not need to play this way every ball, and it is impossible for him to play this way, but at the critical moment, this is the meaning of Anthony coming to the Knicks , It's like the significance of Durant's going to the Golden State Warriors, a person who can hold the ball and play singles at critical moments!

But Gatsby did not pin the outcome on such singles. If he played like this, it would be very difficult to defeat his opponent. The Heat hit the pain and forced them to flank. As long as they flank, there will be opportunities outside, and that is the time to defeat the Heat!
The Heat had the ball, and James sorted out the offense. After breaking through, he passed the ball to Wade who was cutting. Wade went under the basket and succeeded in a layup - a player like Wade cannot be guarded for the entire game.

Gatsby held the ball for halftime, Anthony came up with a pick and roll, and the Heat still switched defenses. After Anthony received the ball, the Heat flanked. Haslem let go of Wilson Chandler and pounced on Anthony. Anthony had practiced for more than a month. The support showed results, Haslem threw halfway, and Anthony passed the ball to Wilson. Wilson made a three-pointer without hesitation and made a hit!

73: 72!
