If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 307 Heat's Little Trick
"Yi Jian stood at the free throw line...and hit it steadily. Yi Jian's free throws at critical moments have never disappointed. Now we can say that the Thunder has won this game."

"Yi Jian scored 10 points in the last half of the quarter, directly killing the game, and the Thunder series led 2:0."

"The Thunder haven't lost in the playoffs so far, and it won't be easy for the Heat to return home."

As the Heat missed a strong three-pointer again, the game came to an end.

Yi Jian scored 28 points in the game, the highest in the game. In this game, he scored 30 points, not the highest in the game, but he still helped the team win the victory.

Wade's 30+ has become an empty cut.

James played well in this front, but there were indeed some pitfalls at the critical moment.

After the game, Brooks praised Yi Jian again. He was very satisfied with Yi Jian's final performance.

He said: "Yi Jian has always played like this. I said he is the best in the world. He is a great player and is not afraid of double-teaming. When the team needs him, no one can stop him."

"I think the key to the game is defense. We didn't relax our defense until the last moment. Of course, in the championship series, you not only have to play hard and give yourself a chance, but also need some good luck."

Yi Jian said modestly: "The victory is not due to me alone. Our entire team performed very well and we have the determination to defend the title. If my teammates can make a shot, I will be happy to pass the ball. Of course, if When the team needs me to take more shots, I will not hesitate to stand up."

Lowry, who played well in this game, said after the game: "We just stayed focused. In addition, we were calm and did not panic. We did our own things carefully and gave ourselves a chance to win."

On the Heat's side, it's natural that the duck's mouth is hard to die.

In the playoffs, the loser does not lose. If they dare not say anything, it means they have given up.

The Heat have not given up yet. Their coach Spoelstra said: "There is no doubt that we lost the intensity in the fourth quarter. We should show the intensity. No matter what, we should maintain the intensity."

"For us, the way we ended the game today was an anomaly, both offensively and defensively. Going back to Miami, we're going to bounce back."

Wade said angrily after the game: "You know, obviously, we gave them a chance. We didn't play our normal way, so they should win."

Bosh admitted his mistake, saying he didn't play well.

James said that he promised to win the game when he returned home.

At this point in the series, most of the pressure is on the Heat anyway.

After returning to Miami, the coaching staff of the Heat also had a heated discussion on how to defend Yi Jian.

In fact, other tactics are more just adjustments in details.

Defending Yi Jian is the real big problem.

Whether Yi Jian scored by himself or passed the ball, he was very threatening.

Now the Heat's coaching staff is divided into two factions, one faction thinks that they will attack from the beginning to the end, and will not give Yi Jian a chance to play, and if the others attack the Heat, they will admit it.

The other point of view is to consume Yi Jian, not flanking, guarding against other Thunder players, cutting off Yi Jian's connection with others, it depends on whether Yi Jian can kill them alone.

In fact, these are two ways to defend against superstars, but Yi Jian is different. He is stronger than ordinary superstars. The Heat didn't take advantage of it in the first two games, so they struggled.

After all, if returning to the home court fails to win a round, the series can end early.

The first home game is very important, especially for the Heat who have not lost a game.

In the end, Spoelstra decided to look at Yi Jian's scoring ability first, and see if the previous scoring champion can still pick a team after changing his style of play?

In fact, there are some off-court factors, which are the referee's scale, one of the home court advantages.

It doesn't mean that you are blatantly partial. If the penalty scale is tighter or looser, the home team that knows in advance can do a lot of things.

This kind of dirty method is normal in the business alliance, and everyone agrees.

There is also an abnormality, that is, the scale will change during a game, and experienced referees can easily control the field.

But abnormal ones are risky, and they are relatively rare.

The Heat only need to greet the referee and loosen the penalty scale, and they can greet Yi Jian as much as they want on the defensive end and use up all their strength.

In this way, maybe a real player can handle Yi Jian.

If you can't deal with Yi Jian, you can also deal with other people.

If it doesn't work, then whistle tighter, and the Big Three will foul all kinds of possessions.

The Heat didn't choose to whistle tight first, one is to consume Yi Jian, and the other is because Yi Jian and Durant are also masters of foul making.

Especially Durant, who had hoped to limit it, but don't let the referee call it tight, but let him be lawless.

The Heat's home game opened on the third day after the second game, and there was no change in the starting lineups of both sides.

It may be that they are back at home. The Heat performed well on the offensive end. Not only did James and Wade score when they came up, Bosh also hit the mid-range shot under Yi Jian's defense.

As for Yi Jian, he didn't notice the Heat's conspiracy at the beginning, and was still helping his teammates with the ball.

By the time he discovered that the whistleblowing scale of this game was wrong, the Heat had already taken the lead.

The Heat's home fans are also cheering.

In the first two away games, the Miami fans were too aggrieved.

Now that they are on their territory and the team is taking the lead, they are in a much better mood.

They encouraged the team loudly, and also cursed their opponent Thunder.

This is a routine operation, and I have seen a lot of strong teams like the Thunder.

After Yi Jian spoke, he also reminded his teammates, "We are not afraid of confrontation. We are young and have many people, so we are more durable."

"That's right, who is afraid of whom?" Durant also yelled.

He failed to draw two fouls just now, and he was a little depressed.

The West does not have the East's pursuit of defense, but the physical confrontation is not bad.

The Thunder used to fight the Grizzlies in all kinds of hand-to-hand fights before.

But the Heat, some veterans among them, don't know if they can stick to the end.

In the second quarter, Yi Jian started to score in various ways.

Just guard against him?Just try it.

"Yi Jian! A three-pointer step-back hit."

"Yi Jian played singles with the ball outside the three-point line, crossed and changed directions, and pulled up another three-pointer...hit!"

"Yi Jian's action doesn't look like an inside line at all. Should the Heat use an outside line to defend?"

To be able to try Fang Yijian's outside line, I can only think of James.

The Heat had considered it before, but did not implement it. This Yi Jian was fully fired in the second quarter. Spoelstra finally made up his mind and gave James a difficult defensive task.

But what I didn't expect was that Yi Jian held the ball on the outside and was not afraid of James' defense.

Of course, in order to consume James on the offensive end, Yi Jian began to go to the low post inside to ask for the ball.
