The strongest basket king

Chapter 287
"It was Xiang Chu's offensive rebound again. Bosh couldn't help drawing a foul. It's not bad. There were three fouls at the end of the first half, which is acceptable."

"Xiang Chu made the free throw steadily, and the Nuggets completed the overtake."

"At the critical moment, Wade went inside again... Breaking through and scoring a three-pointer! Ray Allen made a hit."

"Fournier also hit a three-pointer, Xiang Chu assisted, and Xiang Chu's passing ability has also improved this season."

"Wade missed the shot, the first half was over, the Nuggets were leading, but both teams played brilliantly."

During the intermission, the Nuggets summed up very carefully. Facing a strong team like the Heat at this time, they will not be shirtless and desperate, but they will not miss the opportunity to play against strong players.

The same is true for the opponent. As far as the first half is concerned, both sides are competing in tactics.

Everyone has weaknesses, but the Heat's weaknesses are bigger because they are not a traditional lineup.

It's not that if the weak link is large, it will lose. The strength of the Big Three can make up for everything.

It's just that their weak links are easier to use, and it is difficult for them to solve the problem of the inside line. The best way is to suppress the Nuggets on the offensive end.

It's a pity that fighting for stars in the playoffs is the real mode. The Nuggets and Heat are now just a mock battle.

In the second half, the Nuggets will not put aside the advantage of the inside line, but they need to be more careful in tactics. If Xiang Chu does not enter the three-second zone to receive the ball, Faried can cut inside when he enters the court.

I used this tactic a lot last season, but I used it less this season, but it can be used when it should be used.

The Nuggets made a good adjustment this time. The Nuggets came out to catch the ball, and it was much more difficult for the opponent to defend the ball, but they still didn’t dare to let Xiang Chu hold the ball at will, because Xiang Chu was a threat inside the three-point line. .

Faried played very well because he got several good chances.

The Heat, in fact, did not make any adjustments, they just strengthened their breakthroughs, hoping that Bosh can pick up the touch on the outside.

It's a pity that Bosh just missed the three-point line this time, and the breakthroughs of James and Wade also ended with passing more because of Xiang Chu's existence.

Limiting the breakthrough power of the opponent's two strong points, Xiang Chu only paid the price of two fouls, which is very worthwhile.

In this case, the Nuggets are leading more and more, seeing that they have reached double digits, and Ray Allen stepped forward from the bench.

Ray Allen's state has actually declined this season, but he is still a cold-faced killer at critical moments, with fast and accurate three-pointers.

With James and Wade helping to attract the defense, the Nuggets sometimes slow down by half a point even if they are blocked by the three-point line. For ordinary shooters, time is not enough, but Ray Allen can grasp it.

When Xiang Chu went to rest, the Heat had already chased the score to single digits.

Mozgov's state has also been unstable during this period. His weakness is too obvious. I'm afraid that in the playoffs, he will only have a few insiders to match.

However, Xiang Chu wanted to have infinite energy with magical skills, so he didn't worry about the issue of inside substitutes.

Ray Allen played well, but the rest of the Heat were mediocre.

For the Nuggets, in addition to Williams and Dunleavy, Jefferson also seized a few opportunities.

Sometimes an experienced player is still reliable, but his physical fitness declines faster, otherwise he is more suitable to play the main force than Chandler.

The Nuggets' substitutes did not perform as well as Ray Allen, but there are more people who can play, so when Xiang Chu played, the team still held a 7-point lead.

The opponent also replaced all the main players, only Ray Allen replaced Battier's position.

The Nuggets are more serious about blocking the three-point line, and Ray Allen's three-point ability is very dangerous.

The defensive ability of the main force of the Nuggets is still better than that of the substitute, and the same is true regardless of Xiang Chu.

Knight and Chandler are okay, and Middleton has been improving, but he has lost a little weight.

After the main players of both sides entered the field, the defense has been upgraded by two levels, and it is much more difficult to score.

However, Xiang Chu has the offensive rebounding weapon, as long as he succeeds twice, it is much better than the Heat, after all, they are in the leading position.

After the defense of the three-pointer became tighter and tighter, the Heat handed over the problem to James.

James went inside several times, causing Xiang Chu to foul once, but he was also capped.

If he keeps playing long two-pointers, it will be the most difficult to defend, but his shooting rate cannot be guaranteed.

During the period, Chalmers stole a three-pointer after receiving a point from James.

Now that the Heat have a few points, it is his defense that is the best, and it is normal to be stolen.

Even if such a situation occurs, the Nuggets' defense will not change. They cannot let the most troublesome person play. If they want to play one, it must be Chalmers.

Not to mention that Xiang Chu can't be completely defended, but he can be defended. With James' impact ability, the Heat will definitely get opportunities from outside, just like the Nuggets will definitely get opportunities from outside.

Putting the worst point is almost a common defensive tactic of many teams, especially the teams with good defense.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you don’t even look at the opponent’s shots. There are such cases, but it’s just a very rare example. Generally, the focus of defense is not there, and sometimes you can’t catch up when the defense rotates.

When the defensive rotation of other points is basically guaranteed, the point that will be paid attention to last can be said to be let go.

They generally can't kill people, unless they are crazy.

And even if Chalmers went crazy, time was a bit short.

In the last 5 minutes, the score of the two sides was 8 points, which was the same as when the main players first played, and it was 2 points in the last 6 minutes, which looked promising.

But then Xiang Chuqiang made a kill and made two free throws. The score gap between the two teams came to 8 points again, which was almost desperate.

The Heat want to shoot three-pointers, but they don't have good shots at all right now.

James missed two strong three-pointers, and finally made a foul and made two free throws.

As time passed, the Heat's situation was gone, they struggled to carry out foul tactics, the Nuggets made all free throws, and the game ended quickly.

The Nuggets are now on an eight-game winning streak, but the Heat have lost a lot recently, and it has become increasingly difficult to be No. [-] in the Eastern Conference during the regular season.

James was also a little helpless in the interview, "It has nothing to do with injuries. The biggest problem now is that I don't know where the problem is. We played well in the first half, but we still lost the game in the end. Now we need to win. Stopping the slump and boosting morale. We've been in situations like that, and just one win can fix a lot of things."

Heat coach Spoelstra was very dissatisfied with the team's state. He said: "As far as the current situation is concerned, we must get nervous and wait until we win to talk about rest."
