Legendary basketball manager

Howard quickly took off for the second time, and across from O'Neal was a slam dunk!

"Beep!"

The whistle sounded again, and O'Neal made a defensive foul.

and. one!

"Roar!!!"

After the goal, Howard roared passionately into the stands.

The Celtic generals showed helpless expressions one after another.

This offensive rebound is too bad for morale!

When Howard walked to the free throw line again, a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

People who love to laugh will never have bad luck.

This time with an additional penalty, Howard made a steady shot.

At 79:59, the difference between the two teams returned to 20 points.

In the following games, the Celtics did not give up and continued to foul Howard.

As a result, the Heat's offensive efficiency has indeed declined.

But on the defensive end, they still maintain a very high intensity.

The Celtics finally hoped that Howard missed two free throws, but when they looked back, they couldn't send the ball to the basket.

Therefore, the point difference between the two teams has not changed.

The Heat entered the fourth quarter with an 18-point lead.

In the last quarter of the game, the Celtics still did not give up.

Rivers sent all five starters to the field to make a last-ditch effort.

And the Heat didn't dare to neglect at all, and the Big Three made their debut together.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, relying on Pierce's consecutive scoring, the Celtics once narrowed the point difference to 10 points.

However, the huge physical energy consumption caused the truth to drop significantly in the subsequent games.

Therefore, after more than half of the fourth quarter, the Heat regained the initiative and once again expanded the point difference to about 15 points.

After that, the Celtics could no longer recover.

In the last 2 minutes, Rivers withdrew all the main players and conceded the loss...

When the red light on the timer comes on, the game is officially over.

In the end, the Heat sat at home and defeated the Celtics 110:100, winning the second victory in the series.

The total score of the two teams came to 2:0.

…………

After watching the game, Mark Jackson asked the players to talk about their feelings.

"Judging from this game, the advantages of our substitute lineup may not be able to give full play to their due advantages in the final decisive battle. The Heat can let the main players play for a long time like today's Celtics."

"Whether it's LeBron, Dwayne or Dwight, they are all in their prime and their physical fitness is at their peak."

"They have the ability and the willingness to play long hours in a seven-game series."

McGrady analyzed seriously.

He made such an inference based on the mentality of the Heat's Big Three.

Of these three, James and Howard are both chasing their first career championships.

During the offseason, James faced the scolding of the whole United States (except Miami) and made a decision resolutely.

This means that in the next season, if you don't win the championship, you will fail!

And Howard also left his home team, the Magic, in the middle of the season and joined the powerful team that also belongs to the Eastern Conference-the Heat.

This undoubtedly caused the reputation of Warcraft in the "passerby plate" to drop significantly.

If the Heat can't win the championship this year, he may never return to the glorious moment of the All-Star ticket king.

To put it simply, this season is all about success or failure for Zhan and Huo.

And the other Big Three - Wade, after tasting the "sweetness" of the championship, in recent years can only be described as lonely.

The three superstars are extremely eager to win the championship this season.

Driven by this mentality, it is entirely possible for them to "burn" themselves and play for a long time in the final finals.

Moreover, the three also have this ability (unless the Rockets turn off the air conditioner at home)!

"You don't have to worry too much. Even if the Heat shorten the rotation and let LeBron and the three of them play for a long time, we still have an advantage."

"Even Iron Man needs a break. If it's a game of chance, the three of them might be fine for a full game."

"But the series is 7 games and 4 wins. No player can play so many games with high intensity in a row."

Yao Ming said in relief.

"Everything you said makes sense."

"I played the Finals with the Lakers when I was in the Pistons. Kobe of the Lakers is recognized as a physical monster. I remember very clearly that he averaged 44.2 minutes per game in that series!"

"But how many players in the world are as physically fit as Kobe? At least the Heat can't."

"So, we are vigilant, but not overly concerned."

Ben Wallace spoke eloquently.

After entering the playoffs, Big Ben obviously talked a lot more in the locker room.

One is that young players like the Rockets respect him very much, and two, Shen Fei also called him specifically to ask him to impart more experience in the playoffs to his teammates.

After hearing Da Ben's words, Yao and Mai nodded their heads one after another.

McGrady and Kobe have been friends for many years, and he knows more about the latter than anyone on the scene.

A physical monster like Kobe, in t-mac's impression, can only be compared with Iverson.

As for the three of Jane Weihuo, they are indeed very strong, but they are not good at physical strength.

Getting them to play 44 minutes per game is next to impossible.

And as long as these three people rest, the Rockets' bench advantage can be fully displayed.

After all, none of the Heat's bench players can be compared with powerful players like Roy and Oden.

"The situation in the east is actually quite clear."

"The Celtics are very tenacious, but their strength is far behind that of the Heat, and the defeat is basically guaranteed."

"The Bulls played well under Rose's leadership. The Eagles can't help them, but their offensive methods are too single. It is difficult for Rose to defeat the Heat's defense."

"So...if we successfully enter the finals, the opponent will most likely be the Heat!"

Yao Ming continued to analyze.

"Very good. With such a strong opponent, we have a high gold content in winning the championship."

"Next, we will make two-handed preparations. On the one hand, we will study the current opponents, and on the other hand, we will figure out how to deal with the Heat."

Mark Jackson concluded.

The rocket generals nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay, let's go back to rest early, everyone."

"Tomorrow's game is very important, so don't take it lightly."

Mark Jackson said seriously.

After all, he got up and walked among the players, stretching out his right hand.

The rocket generals responded one after another and folded their hands together.

"o. three!"

"go. rockets!!!!"

............

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Shen Fei also just finished watching the game between the Heat and the Celtics at home.

In his view, the game was uneventful.The Celtics were tenacious, but they didn't really put pressure on the Heat.

But that doesn't mean there aren't bright spots in this game.

On the contrary, the "Cut Huo" tactic in the third quarter really made Shen Fei's eyes shine.

[This trick is not bad, should you cut it a bit, and mess with Howard's mentality...]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

Of course, the beauty of this trick is far more than engaging in mentality.

If the foul tactics are used well, it can make the opponent have to put a core player on the bench.

It just so happens that the Rockets have many players and have sufficient resources to implement foul tactics.

Once Howard misses multiple free throws in a game, the Heat may hide him.

And once Warcraft is off the field, the Heat's weak inside line will be wide open.

At that time, whether it is Yao Ming and Griffin's strong inside play, or McGrady, Curry and other outsiders' breakthroughs to attack the basket, it will become much easier.

Thinking of this, Shen Fei silently recorded his thoughts in the memo on the phone.

After the Western Conference Finals, he will send these ideas to Mark Jackson, which can be regarded as contributing to the team's championship.

After finishing these, Shen Fei had nothing else to do, and looked at the statistics of the Rockets' previous playoff games.

Among them, Yi Jianlian's playing time caught his attention.

10 minute, 7 minutes, 5 minutes...

With the deepening of the playoffs, Shen Fei found that the playing time of the United Arab Emirates gradually decreased.

In contrast, Jeremy Lin's playing time has surpassed Lowry, becoming the second point guard after Curry.

"I also learned a skill, why is there such a big gap..."

Shen Fei couldn't help complaining.

But if you think about it carefully, this matter is not difficult to understand.

Although UAE's talent is high, he is not outstanding in the necessary abilities of some inside players.

For example, lateral movement ability, grabbing ability, core strength...

Even the jumping that Yi Jianlian is most proud of in his physical fitness is just a high jump, but the speed of the bounce is average.

In the NBA arena, especially in the playoffs, bullet speed or explosive power is actually more important than bounce.

for example.

Whether Westbrook is standing up or running up, he is not considered the top group in the back line, but his number of dunks is the highest among point guards.

In the game, we can often see Westbrook soaring into the air and dunking the ball against the opponent's inside line!

What does this depend on?

Isn't it just bullet speed and explosive power!

With these two abilities, players can quickly complete dunks in a short time and in a small area.

While Yi Jianlian has an excellent bounce, he rarely has a wonderful dunk in the NBA arena.

Basically, fans can only see the excellent jumping ability of the UAE when the fast break is facing an empty basket.

In normal sports battles, Yi Jianlian can only rely on the [Lewis shooting bag] to provide firepower from the outside.

But at present, there are many three-pointers in the Rockets, and it is not difficult to understand that the UAE does not get too many opportunities to play.

But Shen Fei didn't want the UAE to miss such a good opportunity to practice in the playoffs.

"It's not good to force Mark Jackson to increase Yi Jianlian's playing time..."

Shen Fei murmured.

He has always been strong, and he has always said that he is the same in the team, but this does not mean that he will help players go through the back door.

There is only one way to let Yi Jianlian get more playing time, and that is to continue to strengthen his strength.

[There is one skill pack left, why not use it for Yi Jianlian...]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

Not only must this be done, but it must be done quickly.

If Yi Jianlian can get a suitable skill set to improve his strength quickly, then he will be able to "level up" in the next playoffs!

With this in mind, Shen Fei immediately called out the system in his mind, and chose one of the [S-level random star skill packs].

The first is location selection.

Yi Jianlian basically played the fourth position, and Shen Fei decisively chose the "power forward" position, and then opened the [Random Star Skill Pack].

The next moment, an open box appeared in front of his eyes.

A ball of light appears above the box.

Soon, the highlights of the big star power forwards in the history of the nba were played on it like a revolving lantern.

Kemp's beast slam dunk, Garnett's commanding defense, Nowitzki's golden rooster independence...

As time went by, the images played faster and faster until it became difficult to see what was being played.

"Ding!"

The picture finally freezes, and a figure stands in the brilliance.

Shen Fei took a closer look, and it turned out to be Rodman wearing the No. 91 Bulls jersey!

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the star skill - [Rodman's grabbing ability]"

"After using it, the player will have the scrambling ability of Rodman in the 1995-1998 season."

"As big as rebounding ability, defensive ability, as small as observation ability, dynamic vision and other related factors, they will infinitely approach Rodman in the 1995-1998 season."

The system explained to Shen Fei with an emotionless metallic voice.

After listening to the introduction, Shen Fei was extremely happy.

He is so lucky!

Rodman's fighting ability can be said to perfectly meet Yi Jianlian's needs.

This is the man who helped Jordan complete his second three consecutive championships!

If Michael Jordan is the god of basketball, then Rodman is the "devil" in the basketball world!

He can not shoot for the entire game, but he can use defense and rebounds to affect the direction of the game.

Even in the last year of his career (2000), the 39-year-old Rodman still averaged 14 rebounds per game!

It can be said that relying on this rebounding ability alone is enough for the UAE to have a foothold in the Rockets.

Coupled with Rodman's super single-handed level, Shen Fei can even foresee the scene where Yi Jianlian takes the starting position from Griffin!

[This lottery draw can be said to be a lucky draw... It is not so much a draw for a skill, but rather a draw for all of Rodman's abilities. ]

Shen Fei sighed in his heart.

And the main task in his hands at the moment - to make Under Armor become an existence comparable to Nike, and the [SSS-level star skill package] in the reward is just to copy all the abilities of a player.

It can be said that this time, Shen Fei directly "upgraded" the skill package by relying on his luck against the sky!

Yi Jianlian's original talent + excellent three-point shooting ability + Rodman's fighting ability...

Such a power forward is simply frighteningly strong!

[What kind of sparks will such a United Arab League collide with Nowitzki? ]

Shen Fei was extremely curious.

So he immediately took out his mobile phone and was about to call Ah Lian.

But Shen Fei thought about it again, the Rockets will play tomorrow, so it is inappropriate to let Ah Lian come out now.

[Then let's play after the game tomorrow...]

Shen Fei thought to himself.

............

The next day, Toyota Center Arena.

The second battle between the Rockets and the Thunder is coming as scheduled!
