NBA’s aging star system

At the beginning of the second half of the game, both sides took on the starting lineup.

In the first half, he committed two fouls, which were not particularly serious. In the second half, as long as he pays attention, he can still survive until the end of the game.

But he never expected that at the beginning of the third quarter, Nongmei was called for a foul again. Nongmei shook his head with a helpless expression.

But at this time, Walton did not replace the thick eyebrow, but let the thick eyebrow continue to be present.

The thick eyebrows who continued to play did not live up to Walton's trust, causing continuous interference on the defensive end and putting the Heat's offense into an extremely difficult situation.

The point difference between the two teams quickly reached double digits, and it is still expanding.

Before half the time in the third quarter, the point difference had reached 16 points, and the Heat called a timeout.

"Jimmy, you have to find ways to score on the offensive end instead of getting stuck in the quagmire of fighting with Sue and trying to get rid of him!"

"Vincent, Nunn, you have to pay attention. When you break through, try to lean on Anthony Davis and cause him to foul. Don't avoid him."

Taking advantage of the timeout, Spoelstra adjusted the players' status and made some tactical changes in the hope of achieving some results.

But the real situation is not as simple as Spoelstra imagined.

The first is that Butler gets rid of Su Tian. Butler also wants to get rid of Su Tian's entanglement, but it can't be done if he wants to. Su Tian's defensive strength is stronger than Butler's. If he wants to get rid of Su Tian, God, it's hard for Butler to do it alone right now.

After the thick eyebrows experienced a series with the Warriors, they already have some experience in dealing with referees. Now if the referee wants to call thick eyebrows casually, it is no longer as easy as before.

The timeout soon ended and the game continued. After the timeout came back, Butler came to the frontcourt with the ball. Facing Su Tian's defense, Butler chose to pass the ball to his teammates, while he tried to get rid of the defense without the ball.

It is still more convenient to get rid of the defense without the ball than with the ball, and the entire Heat team is setting up pick-and-rolls and screens for Butler. After several interspersed runs, Butler finally got a chance, and Vincent quickly passed the ball. The ball is given.

Butler received the ball at the elbow and shot directly.

When the ball was released, Su Tian did not catch up in time, but Nongmei did.

But the shot still hit.

Swah——

Seeing Butler hit the shot, Spoelstra and some Heat fans on the sidelines also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just when they thought this was the Heat's clarion call for counterattack, they discovered that it was just a flash in the pan.

In the next few rounds, the Lakers began to show their strong offensive capabilities, and the point difference continued to widen.

Soon the score difference reached 20 points, and at this time, the third quarter was already halfway through, and the Heat called a timeout again.

"It's over. With a 20-point difference, the Heat have no chance."

"I unilaterally declare that the game is over and the Lakers have won!"

"Although there is still a full quarter and a half left in the game, sorry, the victory has already been won by the Lakers."

"The Lakers' offense is so terrible, the Heat can't stop it at all."

"Actually, compared to the defense, I feel that the Heat's offense has a big problem, and the main problem lies with Butler. Butler is unable to contribute the offensive level he had during the regular season."

"Harm, in fact, the Heat have a big and obvious gap with the Lakers in both offense and defense. This cannot be made up by one ball or two goals."

A timeout ended the second half of the third quarter and the game continued as fans discussed it.

At this time, both teams made substitution adjustments. Su Tianye and Nongmei on the Lakers side all took a rest, but Butler on the Heat side did not go off.

Obviously, Butler also wanted to take advantage of Su Tian's absence to catch up with the score and have a fun trip.

And after playing a few rounds, the effect is still very good.

Although Paul George's defense is not bad, it is still worse than Su Tian. Butler also took the opportunity to score a lot of points, and the point difference between the two teams began to narrow.

It's just that the 20-point difference is indeed too much. Even though Butler has put in all his efforts, he still failed to bring the point difference to single digits.

At the end of the third quarter, the score difference between the two teams reached 12 points.

"I have to say that Butler's performance in the second half was very good, showing the style of the Heat's star player." Barkley said.

"Yes, but this performance cannot last long, and it is now entering the fourth quarter. The Heat must find ways to limit Su's performance." Kenny Smith said.

At this time, Spoelstra was indeed worrying about how to better restrict Su Tian's performance.

"We should still follow the tactics we practiced before. We will double-team Su and not give him a chance to score. Then we cannot give him three-point opportunities. Give them the mid-range chance." Spoelstra said while writing and drawing on the tactical board. .

In fact, before the game started, the Heat had practiced defensive tactics for the fourth quarter, but at this time Spoelstra still felt that such a tactical arrangement was not safe.

Looking at the Lakers' bench, Walton's expression is much more relaxed. He has a double-digit lead and only committed three fouls. There is no doubt that the Lakers have an absolute advantage.

Soon the intersection ended and the fourth quarter began.

In the fourth quarter, the Lakers were naturally led by Su Tian and Nongmei, while the Heat were led by Butler and Adebayor.

The Heat's substitutes are actually very good. Oladipo and Hiero are on the field at this time.

The first possession of the fourth quarter was given to the Lakers. Su Tian took the ball to the frontcourt and faced Butler's defense.

Facing Butler's defense at this time, Su Tian seemed to be very comfortable. First, he made a large change of direction in front of his body to shake Butler's defensive focus.

Then there was an explosion to break through and attract Butler's defense. Finally, he stepped back to the three-point line and shot directly from the three-point line.

Su Tian's series of operations gave him enough space to take action, and Butler did not cause any effective interference at all.

Swah——

The three-pointer hit directly.

Su Tian didn't forget to talk trash even after hitting a three-pointer.

"Hey Jimmy, are you too old? Why can't you guard this ball?"

When Butler heard Su Tian's trash talk, he simply smiled and said, "You little kid must learn to respect your seniors."

The ball was transferred, and Butler took the ball and came to the frontcourt to face Su Tian's defense.

Su Tian just hit Butler in a single, so Butler also wanted to return a goal.

But Butler's continuous cross-dribbles were unable to get rid of Su Tian's death entanglement. In desperation, Butler could only pass the ball to his teammates, while he ran without the ball.

With the cover and help of his teammates, Butler temporarily got rid of the defending Su Tian, ​​and immediately shot after receiving the pass from his teammates.

But in the fourth quarter, Su Tian has evolved. This ball successfully interfered with the basketball.
