Chapter 604 "Foul Tactics"

The basketball fell sharply before reaching the rim, without even touching the rim.

"Is this what you said 100% will enter? It's obviously three non-sticks." The teammate wanted to "taunt" Mu Chenfeng.

"Are you questioning me?" The corners of Mu Chenfeng's eyes flashed a stern light, "I said before, this goal will definitely be scored."

"It's not a shot! It's a pass!" Suddenly, Chris reacted and shouted loudly.

After the basketball fell sharply, it fell into Gaia's arms precisely. "Strike!" Gaia pulled the green onion dryly and completed a heavy dunk with both hands.

This assist was too hidden, it fooled everyone except Gaia, everyone thought Mu Chenfeng's ball was a shot, only he and Gaia knew what the real "face" of this ball looked like.

"This game should be stable." Alice has already made a "conclusive conclusion" for this game. There are two reasons why she made such a decisive conclusion. First, there is not much time left in the game, and the Heat's advantage is enough to give them peace of mind.

Louis didn't think so, "The game isn't over yet."

"Can the Nets win this game?"

"That depends on the foul tactics of waiting."

Foul tactics are the most common tactics near the end of the game. As long as the game has not been spent, foul tactics are a necessary part. Many teams that are behind will use foul tactics to achieve a comeback.

Louis' caution is because foul tactics are full of uncertainty, and the Heat's leading point difference is completely within the "reversible" range.

"Then when are we going to use foul tactics, now?" Alice asked suspiciously.

"Wait another round." Next is the Nets' offensive round. If they can score and narrow the point difference, they can suspend the implementation of foul tactics. After all, foul tactics are multi-edged swords. If they are used well, they can chase points.

Therefore, the Nets' next offensive and defensive rounds are very critical.

Kidd applied for a timeout before the offense. This timeout was not called for offensive tactics, but for defensive tactics after the offense. Whether the goal was scored or not, they had to prevent the Heat from scoring in the next defense. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time, and chasing points would be meaningless.

The players listened carefully to the tactical arrangement, and it was not difficult to implement, but the physical requirements of the players were very good, and they needed to return to defense immediately after completing the attack, and form a defensive formation before the Heat's attack arrived.

The Heat are uncharacteristically, they no longer control the attack time, but use fast breaks to hit the basket and maintain the point difference.

Back on the court, the Nets were earnestly executing their offensive moves, and the Heat's defense was also very rigorous, never giving the opponent a chance to take advantage of the loopholes. The Nets could only focus their offense on the outside. However, the Heat ignored that the Nets had a killer who had awakened.

Through the pick-and-roll and flexible shaking of his teammates, Chris got rid of Wade's defense, went to the outside to catch the ball and turned around, Wade's supplementary defense was just in place, Chris made a mid-range shot against Wade's defense, Wade did not interfere, and the basketball shot into the basket.

Without celebration or unnecessary actions, the five players of the Nets neatly returned to the backcourt to defend.

The Heat quickly served the baseline, and Mu Chenfeng took the lead. When he advanced to the opponent's half, the opponent's defensive formation had been established.

"Return to defense quickly."

The Nets showed amazing overall execution and successfully suppressed the Heat's fast break.

Kidd is really scheming. He has calculated that the Heat will play fast, so he will arrange the players' defensive tactics in advance. Facts have proved that his tactics are extremely correct and timely. If he didn't remind the players, they would definitely be caught off guard by the opponent's fast break.

The point difference has come to 6 points, the Nets can suspend the implementation of foul tactics, they can use defense to defend against the next one first, and if they succeed, they can further approach the point difference.

Mu Chenfeng didn't have a good chance, so he gave the ball to Wade, and Wade organized an attack. At this time, the time entered the countdown to the last minute.

When the time started from 59 seconds, I always felt that the speed of time passed faster. The Nets increased the intensity of defense, forcing opponents to make mistakes, or taking the opportunity to implement steals.

Under Chris' strong defensive pressure, Wade was also forced to stop and protect the ball.

Seeing this, Mu Chenfeng asked for the ball from the other side. After seeing Mu Chenfeng, Wade passed the ball out. Unexpectedly, this was just a defensive trap set up by the Nets. They deliberately dodged the right field of vision to Wade, and the purpose was to let him pass the ball to the left.

When the basketball came out, Robinson, who was ambushing behind Chris, suddenly came out and stretched out his long arms to steal. Mu Chenfeng also stepped up quickly. The two touched the basketball almost at the same time. The basketball rolled towards the center line.

But no one from the Heat responded in time. The basketball was controlled by the Nets. As an inside player, Robinson held the ball and advanced very clumsily.

The tactical effect of the "two-line" attack is obvious. It successfully divided the Heat's defense, resulting in a relatively empty central axis defense. Bynum received the ball while running to the inside and took three steps. Claude was standing still.

"Crowder blocked the foul and the Nets got two free throw opportunities."

According to Claude's timing position, the referee gave the result of the penalty, and Claude's heel stepped on the "reasonable collision zone".

Bynum's free throw percentage is not good, only 48%, even if it is placed inside the player is very low.

As expected, the first free throw went out of the basket.

The second free throw, a stumbling hit.

The Nets recovered 1 point again, but the point difference was still 5 points, and it was time to foul.

Foul tactics are also strategic. The person who is fouled, that is, the person who executes the free throw must choose the most unstable free throw of the opponent, so that it will be effective.

The NBA stipulates that in the last 2 minutes of the game, foul tactics against "off-the-ball" players are not allowed. This is also to prevent teams from implementing "malicious shark-cutting tactics."

Therefore, the biggest problem facing the Nets is that they need to let the Heat send the ball to the player with the most unstable free throws, and then implement foul tactics on him.
