I'm king in the basket

Chapter 359 I'm Ready to Win
Snyder said a few things specifically.

Positivity, defense, courage.

Enthusiasm must run through and not let up.

Defense is the foundation of winning, and we must not relax for a moment.

Courage, don't be intimidated by James' "grass mud horse face".

Basically, it is still based on chicken soup, supplemented by tactics.

Li Xing didn't feel anything, and silently lay on the balance board, practicing his balance while asking Olina to loosen his muscles and bones.

Intermission passed quickly.

The second half started.

In the second half, James first gave the Heat a good start with a tank-crushing layup.

The Raptors were not afraid at all, relying on Li Xing's defense as a guarantee, they continued to attack.

Stephenson scored a layup for Haifa to take the lead.

"Look at his layup, it's so easy, where's Miami's paint defense?"

This is just the beginning.

A successful defense, the Heat retreated very quickly, DeRozan followed up the fast break, seized the conversion opportunity, and hit a jumper.

Wade secretly sighed, this speed is too fast.

DeRozan deserves to be the king of counterattacks this season. Even though they returned to defense so fast, he still caught the gap.

However, in half a minute, the Heat had just played a beautiful tactical coordination with the front foot, and Mario Chalmers scored a jumper.

A few seconds later, Li Xing gave Bargnani a chance to attack the basket in a high position.

Bargnani's offense was very resolute, and Battier, who forced himself to the third position, was far inferior in height and could only lose.

The Raptors scored 9 points in a row, establishing the advantage in the second half.

The good times didn't last long. Battier couldn't stand up to Bargnani on the inside line, and it was hard for the latter to pull out and shoot a three-pointer.

With the same tactic, the Heat played twice in a row, and Battier also took advantage of this to hit two three-pointers in a row to cling to the game.

"Miami showed tenacity in the semis!"

"Yeah, that's what they did to get to the end and win Boston without Chris Bosh!"

Battier's three-pointer seemed to be a refreshing pill. The Heat began to increase their intensity, and the Raptors couldn't find the rhythm.

In the next 2 minutes, if Li Xing hadn't done damage to the basket, they would not have scored a single point.

The importance of Li Xing is so prominent at this moment, and he has proved with practical actions why he is the only candidate for MVP.

The poor insider of the Heat team was like a chicken and a dog in front of him, so he was not afraid. He picked up the ball and attacked the basket, as tough as a tiger descending the mountain.

No one stopped his invasion. Seeing him scoring consecutively, the point difference was about to expand to 9 points.

How can James and Wade sit back and watch the situation deteriorate further?The two had another connection, which was a harbinger of their madness.

Wade assists James alley-oop dunk.

Immediately afterwards, James also repeatedly attacked the basket with a tough offense.

These two are the point of no solution for the Raptors.

Wade was able to limit it at the beginning. When he found his shooting touch, DeRozan had a lot of talent, but he couldn't help him.

When the strengths of both sides are on the same level, talent can determine some things.

If both sides have similar talents, technology is the key to victory or defeat.

DeRozan's current physical fitness is higher than that of Wade, but his skills are ten years behind the Flash who has lost his meniscus.

This is DeRozan's third year, and he is still finding his own way of playing, while Wade knew his future as early as his rookie season.

Jane and Wei broke out at the same time, and when the situation was turned upside down, Li Xing and Bargnani, the seemingly incompatible partners, also showed their power.

Although Bargnani advertised that he and Li Xing are partners, they did not provide much support on the court.

Bargnani is the team's No. [-] scorer, but most of his points are free shots outside the system.

Li Xing is the core of the system, whether offensive or defensive, the focus is on him.

Bargnani is the other extreme. He can play tactics, but it is not necessary. He can get opportunities without running tactics.

Teammates just need to stop and pass the ball when he runs out of opportunities.

Excellent shooting skills and poor defense made him and Li Xing form the most wonderful twin towers in history.

There has never been such an extreme twin tower in the history of professional basketball.

The Twin Towers pay attention to the coordination of high and low positions, so Bargnani developed a positional offense, but he doesn't like low-post operations.

He doesn't like to go to the low post when he doesn't feel good and is not in good shape like tonight.

The reason is simple, you can't find the touch in the high position, should you go to the low position to be abused?

In the blink of an eye, Bargnani hit another three-pointer.

After most of the third quarter, he finally recovered his form.

Moreover, Li Xing discovered that his current score had actually reached 87 points.

Compared with his 86 points in his best state last season, Li Xing saw the way through the changes in attributes.

He didn't play low post last season.

During the offseason, he specially trained low-post offense, which weakened other skills, so his score decreased, but his strength did not decrease much.

Through the accumulation of the game, his attributes have stabilized, so the score has recovered to 86 points.

The added low-post offense helped him raise his overall rating to 87 points.

Looking at it this way, the Raptors also have a big and small Big Three lineup.

Li Xing scored 99, Bargnani scored 87, and DeRozan scored 84.

Although it is a typical "big head son" Big Three, both of them still have room for improvement, especially DeRozan, who has A-level potential.

Back in the game, Li Xing and Bargnani broke out at the same time to stabilize the situation.

The offense is like raindrops falling, and their shooting is like a sharp arrow through the heart.

At the end of the third quarter, the offense of Li Xing and Bargnani gave the Raptors a 7-point lead.

"The form is clear and they have taken the lead. For Miami, the biggest problem right now is the inside line!"

"Dexter Pittman has 5 fouls, Joel Anthony has 4 fouls, Juwan Howard can't stop the white wolf, who else? They have Udonis Haslem , LeBron at power forward and Shane Battier."

With this list, even Barkley feels sad for the Heat.

"Just these few insiders, Larch can tear them apart!"

"Can't they find other long men with great range? Why are there only a few of them? Weird!"

The Heat's inside reserves are so poor that they are speechless.

Following the referee's whistle, the last quarter of the game began.

The players from both sides were ready to go. When they walked to the field, James glanced at Li Xing.

"This time, we won't lose again."

"is it?"

Li Xing's tone was like a corpse that had just crawled out of hell, cold and without even the slightest trace of popularity.

James looked behind him and said, "I don't care what you're going to do, you won't succeed!"

"I'm ready to win."

Since Li Xing won the opening jump ball, the Raptors had the ball at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

This section of the game was full of gunpowder because of the trash talk of the bosses of both sides before the start.

For the Raptors, Bargnani was in excellent form. After running, he received an assist from Stephenson and scored a three-pointer from the outside.

The shot was very decisive.

It was also through this goal that the Raptors' lead reached double digits.

James was eager to chase points and chose to attack by killing at the basket. His idea was very good, but he didn't consider Li Xing's defense.

When James hits the basket, he starts to attack, just like an arrow from the string, if he doesn't shoot, he has to shoot.

And at that angle, he still couldn't avoid Li Xing's block.

"Snapped!"

Li Xing's palm was like a fly swatter, and the basketball was slapped down from the air like a fly.

The opening attack and defense seemed to set the tone for the final quarter, and Li Xing's defense was the key to all of this.

With a 10-point advantage, the Raptors chased after the victory. Except for Haslem's mid-range shot, the Heat failed to improve on the offensive end, while the Raptors relied on Li Xing's defense to score consecutive counterattacks.

In less than 2 minutes, the point difference reached 15 points.

The Filipinos requested a timeout.He doesn't know if the game can be saved, and he can't take care of it anymore. Only a timeout can interrupt the Raptors' offense, and only a timeout can make the players calm down and think.

Fortunately, this is not a game that can't afford to lose.

This is just the first game of the series, and even if they lose, they can start all over again.

The Heat's original plan was to steal a game in the first two away games.

Failed the first time, come again the second time.

It's just the beginning of the fourth quarter. Although the gap of 15 points is huge, it is not yet the time of despair.

After the timeout, the Raptors formed an impressive formation of Stephenson, DeRozan, Bargnani, Evans, and Li Xing.

Bargnani swung to the third position after a long absence.

Snyder values ​​Snyder's touch and allows him to completely release his energy in the third position.

Bargnani lived up to Snyder's expectations, and from the moment he returned to the court, he exploded.

Bargnani first hit a three-pointer from the outside, then made a successful mid-range shot, and "deliberately" let James break through on the defensive end, and handed it over to Li Xing to help defend, causing the little emperor to make a mistake.

Bargnani ran at the forefront of the counterattack, and no one could stop him.

The Italian ran forward crazily, took the ball in his hand, and dunked, making the point difference reach 20+.

The Heat's pause seemed to put a reminder on themselves.

They failed to bring back the good form, but forced out Bargnani, who was full of firepower.

Li Xing saw that the "Finger of Suppleness" was activated again and again, and he knew that the Heat were doomed.

With half a quarter left in the fourth quarter, the game entered garbage time. Both sides came off the bench, and the Raptors went all out and completely defeated their opponents.

In the last minute, the fans at the scene stood up and cheered for the upcoming victory.

The Heat fought the Raptors for three and a half quarters, and collapsed in the last quarter.

"Inside! It's still inside!"

"If Miami can't figure this out, it's going to be hard for them to beat Toronto!"

However, the playoffs have reached this point, where can I find an insider?Only internal potential ah.

However, if there is potential to be tapped internally, Spoelstra will not be so desperate to send Pittman to fight against Li Xing, and they are all forced!
