If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 377 The Reason You Must Fight

The Heat understand that the Thunder are difficult to deal with, so they changed their tactics at the beginning.

Heat coach Spoelstra looked serious on the sidelines, and they chose to go all out in this series.

Did they lose their stamina after the tiebreaker?They just want to do the opposite.

They want to grab an away game, with a gambling nature.

Their small lineup will play from the beginning, the team will only rotate with seven people, James and Wade will reduce the news time and go all out.

The Thunder will continue the previous rotation, but they will not take it lightly. The playing time of Yi Jian and Durant will definitely increase.

In other positions, the players must defend desperately and attack with all their strength regardless of consumption.

The Thunder's bench lineup is still much stronger than the Heat's.

The Heat will be high-intensity when they come up, and the Thunder, who are playing at home, will definitely not hesitate.

They are not only high-intensity, but will continue to increase the intensity. They want to see if the Heat are so confident in fighting them, whether there is really something.

The Heat's reduction in rotation was only average. After a few steals in the opening game, the Thunder understood the Heat's strategy. Their defense became more and more targeted, even in the rotation time.

The Thunder can maintain defensive strength during the rotation period, which is the key to their stable record.

Even a team with a strong rotation cannot pose a threat to the Thunder.

The Heat reduce the rotation in this way, so that there are strong attack points on the field at any time, and the damage to the Thunder cannot exceed a limit.

Moreover, the current Thunder will also maintain a strong point on the field at any time.

After the Heat couldn't score with the shooters, they could only rely on the stars to play alone.

James still feels good, but Wade and Bosh are worse.

Wade and Bosh have also been affected by injuries this season.

In the face of the Thunder, Bosh really didn't have a chance to play.

If Yi Jian is not in the match, he may be pulled out and still be able to cast a shot. If he is in the match, Yi Jian will definitely be completely suppressed.

"Isn't the Heat doing the same thing as the Spurs? It's just passing the ball and the Spurs don't have a tacit understanding."

"It's still different from the Spurs. The Heat are purely fighting inside and can't just open up space for James and Wade to play."

"The Heat used to play defense, but now they want to directly attack the Thunder, probably because they are not clear-headed."

"The Heat can only rely on their stars anyway, so they can play like this. Otherwise, it would be too ugly to fight defense, and the Heat's giants can't shoot so well."

"It's because of the thunder. I feel that the thunder is too strong, and their opponents can only go sideways."

"Forcing the Spurs to purely attack, of course you can force the Heat to give up the inside. This is the strongest team in the league."

"Obviously the strongest player in history, Yi Jian is also No.1 in the league's history."

"Indeed, No.1 in the league can no longer describe Emperor Yi."

As the Thunder gradually controlled the rhythm of the game, it became more and more difficult for the Heat to play.

By the second quarter, the Heat were all about playing ball.

They also want to bloom more, but the Thunder's defense does not allow it.

James and Wade can only rely on their teammates to open up space and find opportunities to play a few.

However, the Thunder's interior defense range is really large. In the end, they can only play two points, which is back to last season.

In the last playoff matchup, they were completely defeated.

The Heat put all their eggs in one basket, which means they succeeded for half a quarter.

After the game, they will understand that the Thunder really have no weak links.

Even if the Heat fight hard, the Thunder can still face it calmly.

Better roster, more roster, better stamina.

"It's a lot easier to defend the three-pointer. The Heat only have those three-pointers." Yi Jian laughed.

The rest of the Thunder also laughed. The Heat are strong, but they are even stronger.

The Heat encountered difficulties, but they did not back down so easily.

They started so resolutely, just to chase the championship, and they also have desires.

"Guys, hang on, we can do better."

"We have encountered a lot of difficulties this season. We have overcome injuries and the incomprehension of outsiders to come to this stage again. We must not leave in despair again."

"We're going to do our best to win."

"We, the strongest, can definitely defeat the Thunder."

The Heat really feel that there is a chance. First of all, they have a better run-in. In addition, the Thunder has one less offensive point inside this season.

For many teams in the league, whether Lopez or Jordan is inside the Thunder actually has little effect.

As for the Heat, it seems that it is more difficult to break into the inside, but in fact it is difficult for them to have Yi Jian, and there are not many defensive insiders.

In this way, they can still save some effort on the inside defense.

Jordan doesn't have the ability to attack independently, and the Heat think this is their opportunity.

It is also one of the reasons why they dare to use a small lineup.

If it was Lopez, it would be really difficult.

Of course, this is just the Heat's own analysis. They didn't consider how to solve their biggest problem, which is how to restrict Yi Jian.

Unable to deal with Thunder Double Star, in fact, many things are just fantasy.

But the Heat have no choice. They avoid talking about some issues because they are really incapable.

So they can only bet that if they can win an away game, they may have a chance to win the series.

They were a bit of a surprise at first, but then they got into trouble.

But they had expected trouble a long time ago. If Lei Ting was so easy to deal with, it would not be their turn.

So now the Heat are still full of fighting spirit, and they will fight for the whole game.

In the second quarter, the Heat relied on James' personal ability to support, but this is no problem.

As long as you win the game, it doesn't matter how you win.

The Heat's defense continues, even with a small lineup, but they have not completely given up on defense.

Yi Jian was a little confused, but for Durant, they did a lot better in the second quarter.

Flank Yi Jian, and then try to reduce Durant's scoring efficiency.

This trick has actually been used by many teams in the league. It is useful but not completely useful.

In fact, there is no problem in concept, but it is difficult for them to be perfect.

Other teams still use it, one is because there is no better way, and the other is because they are confident that they can do better.

The Heat think so, they are a strong team capable of challenging the Thunder.

At the last moment of the first half, Bosh hit a three-pointer. The Heat did not let the Thunder step on them in the first half. Both sides were satisfied with the result.

The Thunder changed the situation after the Heat successfully attacked, but the Heat stabilized in the first half after encountering problems.

Now look at the contest between the two sides in the second half, the third quarter may become the winner of the game.

"I have been paying attention to your performance in the first half. We have played well. In the second half, all we have to do is to extend the better time a little longer. This is not very difficult." Heat coach Spohr Stella said confidently.

He has to show confidence and the players will have the confidence to continue fighting.
