This is obviously a bad signal.

The Nets focused their attention and temporarily concentrated their energy on the offensive end.

Kid chose to pass the ball to Carter after passing half court.

Carter dribbled and broke through directly, attracted the defense, and then threw the ball to Roy.

At the top of the arc, Roy hit the first mid-range shot of the game.

Mourning waved his arms in frustration. It was because he went to defend Carter that Roy was left empty at the top of the arc.

The Heat's offensive enthusiasm was obviously two levels stronger than the previous game,

Especially these veterans, 33-year-old O'Neal, 35-year-old Mourning, and 34-year-old Eddie Jones,

Due to these three people, the average age of the Heat is the highest in the league's playoff team,

An old man in the family is like a treasure, and three old men in the family are auspicious treasures,

On the offensive end, the Heat still had Damon Jones dribbling across half court,

Kid strengthened his defense against Damon Jones, and the pressure increased in vain, and his dribbling became difficult,

Wade came out from the baseline at the first time to help Jones out,

Before Wade received the ball, the other Jones shook off Jefferson and cut to the basket,

Wade, who received the ball, did not stop and made a long-distance ground pass,

piercing the Nets' defense,

Because the Nets' defense was all attracted by Wade, the basket was empty,

After Eddie Jones received the ball, he shook off McGinnis's block and scored a layup.

Coach Frank figured out something. Pat Riley really has some tricks.

He changed his style and used Damon Jones to organize the offense.

Wade became a player without the ball, which made the Nets' defense unstable.

Finally, the experienced Eddie Jones succeeded in a sneak attack.

All this was beyond the Nets' expectations, but it was reasonable if you think about it carefully.

The Heat's bench depth has always been insufficient. Stan Van Gundy abandoned Eddie Jones and transferred the bench bandit Rasul Butler.

As a result, there was no one available on the Heat's already scarce bench.

Re-activating Eddie Jones is a brilliant move.

Eddie Jones, who has been hidden for a long time, must be grateful to Pat Riley now.

From starting to being a substitute who can't play, and now returning to the starting lineup, it's a roller coaster experience. It's hard not to make a player devoted to him.

This is the way the "magician" Pat Riley uses people.

Stan Van Gundy in the stands had a gloomy face. He thought Eddie Jones was deliberately making trouble for him.

He gave him opportunities when he was coaching.

He attributed all this to Eddie Jones to pave the way for Pat Riley to take the stage later.

Thinking of this, he hated the Heat even more.

The opening performance of the Heat's role players sounded the alarm for the Nets.

At least it proved that in this game, the third player besides O'Neal and Wade had a good touch today.

"Richard, keep an eye on him, don't let their role players score easily!"

Coach Frank shouted to the players on the sidelines,

Especially Jefferson, who was very annoyed,

It was fine if Wade bullied him, but Eddie Jones, an old guy who had retired half a foot, could also bully him,

This was absolutely unacceptable to him,

The Nets' half-court offense was basically a two-man show between Carter and Roy,

In addition, there was a pick-and-roll between Kidd and Roy,

After the high-post pick-and-roll, Roy took away Damon Jones,

Kidd faced Alonzo Mourning on the three-point line,

Kidd did not choose to pass back to Roy in this round, he wanted to attack by himself,

When facing Mourning, Kidd chose to break through to the inside alone,

He couldn't keep up with Roy, couldn't keep up with Carter, but Kidd's speed was not on the list of Mourning's speed,

Halfway through the breakthrough, Kidd found that his speed could not shake off It's no use regretting to open the opponent.

Mourning is very experienced in bullying such a slow guard.

Fortunately, Kidd is strong and skilled, and he decisively passed the ball to Jefferson on the sideline.

Jefferson was already angry on the defensive end, and he didn't even shoot open shots.

Now he has to react to Eddie Jones.

Jefferson, who is in his prime, dribbled to the basket.

O'Neal's backup defense, Mourning's assist defense, and Eddie Jones's main defense.

The three old men surrounded Jefferson directly.

In a hurry, Jefferson couldn't find a passing route in the crowd and could only choose to shoot himself.

Mourning, who has two block king titles, lived up to his reputation.

He slapped Jefferson's shot out of bounds with a slap.

Mourning, who was autistic after being beaten by Roy in the last game, learned his lesson. In this game, he changed the defender and naturally had to show himself fiercely.

This time, Jefferson not only didn't fight back, but was even moreThe Nets were in a bad mood, and both offense and defense were disadvantageous.

The Nets had less than 5 seconds left to attack.

Frank called a timeout and arranged the tactics briefly.

Jefferson served the ball, and the mountain-like O'Neal blocked his eyes again.

It was as if his body was covered by a wall, and time passed by second by second.

The serving time was about to come, and Jefferson was sweating profusely.

He found Kidd in the gap, a small gap, and seized the opportunity to pass the ball.

But his pass was too straight. Before Kidd received it, Wade saw the flaw in it.

With strong explosive power, he inserted into the passing route.

He reached out and intercepted the ball. Wade dribbled the ball and ran away.

Sprinted to the basket of the Nets, avoiding Carter who was returning to defense halfway.

He scored a dunk with one hand under the basket.

Jefferson covered his head in frustration. He made too many mistakes in the past few rounds.

His old partner Kidd hugged his bald head and whispered a few words of comfort.

This game was not a good start for Jefferson.

After McGinnis served the ball at the baseline, Carter had already crossed the half court with the ball.

Wade was already waiting for Carter near the midfield.

Wade, who was crazy in the last game, was completely different.

It was as if such a thing had never happened.

He led the defense of Carter in the half court and directed the defensive positions of each player on the team.

Wade kept harassing Carter's dribbling in the middle of the game.

Carter was unmoved and his dribbling was still flat. Steady, calm,

Near the three-point line, Roy still pulled Mourning outside the three-point line for pick-and-roll,

McInnis also pulled O'Neal outside the three-point line,

The Heat's basket was in a vacuum zone,

After the pick-and-roll with Roy, facing Mourning's defense, Carter burst out with amazing speed,

Mourning's knees were not good, so he just bullied Kidd,

In front of Carter's explosive power, he was directly passed cleanly,

O'Neal's defense was too late,

Eddie Jones rushed into the restricted area and established the last barrier for the Heat,

Veteran, just shoot three-pointers, you can't get involved in such things in the interior?

Carter, who was high in the air and fast, and Eddie Jones, who was old and frail,

The answer is self-evident, and can only be described as tragic.

Carter broke through Eddie Jones's block, and dunked the ball into the basket with one hand in the air through the 34-year-old veteran.

The stunning dunk, the powerful force, and the elegant posture in the air are only what Carter of this era can perform easily.

Even when the Heat fans saw their own players being dunked, they still gave the dunk king warm applause from the bottom of their hearts.

Carter's beautiful dunk did not affect the mentality of the veterans.

On the offensive end of the Heat, Wade broke through and passed the ball to Eddie Jones, who directly hit the second three-pointer of the game.

Veteran Alonso also turned on the singles mode and abused McGinnis under the basket.

After the Heat opened up three-pointers, O'Neal also had a wide space for singles.

The small hook shot and dunk were very impressive on the offensive end.

On the other hand, the Nets, except for Carter and Roy, and Kidd's two mid-range shots in the open space,

others fell into a dead cycle of shooting again.

In the first quarter, the Heat led the Nets by 8 points with the outstanding performance of veterans,

34 to 26.
