Chapter 556 Not at the same level at all

Every time "White Heat" appears in the American Airlines Center Arena, it is bound to be accompanied by a wonderful game.

The Philadelphia 76ers' cheering group seemed very scattered, and it was difficult to organize effective cheering and cheering. They could only watch helplessly as their actions were submerged in the white-hot ocean.

"The game is about to start, please enter the field first."

Judging from the starting lineup, Miami's starting lineup is extremely luxurious. Mu Chenfeng and Wade partner in the backcourt, Barrett strikes the front line, Gaia sits on the inside, and cooperates with the last blue-collar tool power forward. Few teams in the league can compete with the Heat.

The 76ers' starting lineup is not bad, but in terms of the star flavor and star level of the core players, they were left behind by the Heat. Anthony is the 76ers' number one trump card, but even such a trump card failed to be selected for the All-Star.

If the Heat's starting lineup is defined as an All-Star on average, then the 76ers are at most quasi-All-Star players.

In this way, the two sets of starters are put together, and one can judge for himself who is stronger and who is lower.

In the Heat team, there is a player who can't hold back and wants to start the game immediately. This person is the "newcomer" center Gaia!
Since joining, Gaia has been in the training camp and has never had the opportunity to show his abilities to the audience.

Fans are also speculating and discussing whether Gaia is suitable for coming to the Heat. Most fans think that Gaia can fully adapt to the team. Only a very few people are pessimistic, thinking that there will be "fights" if there are too many giants.

Four All-Stars, only one basketball, how to divide the ball?
Moreover, including Gaia, the Heat's starting lineup can take the initiative to attack with the ball, and they are all confident.

At this time, someone needs to "sacrifice" the ball to play off the ball. Fortunately, Coach Rondo is smart enough to reasonably intersperse the playing time of these players, so that everyone can have enough ball rights.

The outside world has always thought that the giants' tactics are very easy to play. They just need to give the basketball to the stars, and they can solve the problem by themselves. In fact, the players with strong personal abilities are somewhat "unruly" in character. How to make these players get the most out of the limited time, the role of the coach is particularly important.

Gaia represented the Heat in scrambling for the ball, which used to be Stoudemire's "job", but now it has been replaced by Gaia, which has greatly improved its strength.

The basketball flew into the air, and the two who were grabbing the ball leaped towards the sky at the same time.

Snapped! ! !
Gaia first encountered the basketball with an absolute advantage, the basketball was assigned to Wade, and the playoffs officially began.

"Gaia doesn't seem to have lost the jump ball." Barrett laughed.

In my impression, as long as Gaia participates in the jump ball, he has never lost a game. He is 2.18 meters tall, but his wingspan exceeds 2.31 meters. Height and arm length often determine how high a player's upper limit can reach. Gaia was born for basketball.

Wade left to organize the first offense, the first ball, and even Wade became cautious.

In the series, no point was conceded.

In the backcourt, everything was normal, but just after halftime, the 76ers' defensive strength immediately improved.

Wade has quick eyes and quick hands. After sensing the signs of the opponent's defense, Wade immediately passed the ball to Mu Chenfeng.

"Good shot!" Mu Chenfeng still had some thoughts about this goal. This is the opening game. If he can score the first goal in the league, it will be of great significance.

Just as he was holding the ball and preparing to attack, he was immediately defended fiercely by the 76ers, leaving Mu Chenfeng nowhere to drop the ball.

"It's just the beginning, are the 76ers so desperate?" Su Mengyao was puzzled, this kind of intensity is usually used in the decisive moment of the game, and few teams are so "crazy" at the beginning.

Rondo said slowly, "You look tired, don't you?"

Su Mengyao nodded slightly.

Rondo laughed, "Actually, this kind of defense is not tiring."

Su Mengyao's eyes became even more puzzled, but anyone with eyes could see the physical exhaustion of the 76ers visible to the naked eye, but Rondo said he was not tired.

"Look carefully, their defense."

Su Mengyao looked in the direction Rondo pointed, and the 76ers' defense was still active without any abnormality.

"What's there to see?" Su Mengyao looked at it for a long time but didn't see anything.

"Unlimited switching defenses!" Evans said, "The 76ers adopt a tactic of unlimited switching defenses, so they won't get tired."

The so-called unlimited defense change means that when the players are facing an offense, the players will make a change of defense, which can reduce the consumption of physical energy and ensure the continuation of the defensive strength.

It seems that the 76ers are very active in defense and flexible in movement, but in fact everyone is only responsible for one area, but they must defend any opponent who sets foot in their respective territories.

The wireless defense switch had achieved initial results, and the Heat's pre-match preparations were a little insufficient. Unexpectedly, the 76ers would give such a strong defense as soon as they came up, and the offense was blocked. In the end, Mu Chenfeng had no choice but to press the time and completed the last shot.

The hasty shot made the Heat embarrassingly complete the first offense.

Mu Chenfeng was still somewhat nervous. It was the first time he played in such a big scene. He wanted to play well and leave a good impression on the fans. He didn't expect that the first ball would be a forced shot.

"He took 18 seconds of shot time by himself."

"It's too sticky, this ball should be passed."

Fans are like this, when they play well, they are full of praise, but when they play badly, they will reprimand without hesitation.

"How do you feel about the playoffs?" Wade asked Mu Chenfeng, "Compared to the regular season."

"It's not at the same level at all." Mu Chenfeng said slowly, the gap between the playoffs and the regular season can be clearly felt from the defensive attitude of the 76ers.

Mu Chenfeng played the first round with a "regular season" mentality, but the 76ers' unlimited defenses made it difficult for him to break through.

"It seems that some changes need to be made." Mu Chenfeng's self-regulation ability is really good, and he immediately improved his state to deal with the 76ers' attack.

Anthony and Mu Chenfeng faced each other, a veteran vs. a rookie.

"So it's a rookie..." When Anthony saw that the opponent was Mu Chenfeng, he left and changed his routine, turning around and turning into a back-hitting position.

Anthony leaned his back against Mu Chenfeng, and a powerful impact hit Mu Chenfeng. Don't look at Anthony's body, which doesn't seem to be that powerful, but in actual confrontation, his strength will be proudly displayed.

"What a powerful force!"

Every time Anthony leaned back, Mu Chenfeng had to bear the impact and took a step back.

After a few collisions, he had already reached the basket, and Anthony was about to make a strong play. Unexpectedly, Mu Chenfeng was very active in defense, quickly adjusted his state, and jumped up to block.

"What? This can catch up?" Anthony looked at Mu Chenfeng with surprise on his face, but he didn't forcefully challenge Mu Chenfeng's defense, even though he was very sure of making or drawing a foul.

I saw that Anthony's feet moved around flexibly, playing fantastic footsteps, avoiding Mu Chenfeng's defense, sending his body to a position where there was no defensive player, and hit the board.
