Chapter 591: Bag Clamp Failure
Spoelstra urged his players to get off the pitch quickly, and now every second is cherished by the Filipinos. The state of Anjie www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion made this championship coach smell the smell of danger, and this guy's aggressive attack on the inside line was definitely not to tell Spoelstra "You come and defend me".
The Filipino thought about it and began to draw on the tactical board.
First, Spoelstra brought on Mike Miller to replace Haslem who was inactive in attack. Small lineup, he plans to use the small lineup to improve the Heat's offense first.
As for the strategy of defending Anjie, Spoelstra only emphasized one sentence to the players: "Don't wrap up, don't wrap up! If you wrap up Angel, the entire Trail Blazers' offense will be revitalized by him!"
Spoelstra would rather let Anjie score inside than let him lead the entire Trail Blazers' offense. Anyway, he couldn't prevent the inside line, so he simply withdrew Haslem. As long as they overpower the Trail Blazers with offense, then it is only a matter of time before the Heat win the championship!
With new commands and tactics, the Heat's players return to the court. Although they are now 7-0 down, the Big Three seem to be full of confidence.
"Coach Spoelstra made the substitution so early, and it seems that the defensive pressure on the Trail Blazers will be very strong for a while. "Don't underestimate Mike Miller, this guy is definitely one of the heroes of the Heat's two-game winning streak.
Once again, the Heat played a small lineup again. Angel looked at Ricard, who shook his head silently.
His meaning is very clear, not to let Anjie entangle with James too much. I'd rather let Aldridge confront James than keep Anjie away from the basket!
As long as James' breakaway doesn't attract help defense and packing, the Heat's offense won't play as well as the first two games.
With both teams continuing the unfinished game with new instructions, it is now not just a game between managers, but also between players.
The Heat re-attacked, although they only replaced one Haslem, but the defensive pressure on the Blazers instantly increased several times.
James is a much bigger threat with the ball on the outside than he was just now. He only did a few tentative feints and then suddenly activated, and he easily passed Aldridge.
Seeing that James successfully broke through, Bosh immediately pulled outside the three-point line. His purpose is clear, to open up space for James!
But to James's surprise, Anjie was not moved at all!
He let Bosh run outside, but he didn't intend to follow him. Anjie is going to bet on Bosh's extremely inconsistent three-point shooting.
If Bosh can shoot, Rickard will switch to Batum and play one big or four with the Heat. But if Bosh can't shoot, then the Trail Blazers will maintain such a defensive lineup and launch a fierce attack on the offensive end with a huge advantage on the inside!
There is no perfect defense in this world, only a defense of containment and containment. Now, Angel and Ricard's idea is to contain James and let Bosh go. Hopefully, Bosh, who is not in much shape as during the Raptors, will not disappoint Rickard and Anjie.
"Damn!" Of course, James knew how high his offensive efficiency would be if An Jie withdrew, but at this moment, seeing that he was about to collide with An Jie, James could only choose to share the ball.
Outside the three-point line in the bottom corner, Bosh was completely empty, and he was a little hesitant, and in the previous few days of practice, Bosh's three-point shooting percentage was not ideal. But it is really a waste of opportunity to put such a large vacant seat and not vote.
So Bosh jumped out after hesitation, and An Jie looked at the basketball spinning in the air, and immediately stuck in a favorable rebounding position!
"Dang!" the Rose Garden fans shouted happily to the sound of the iron.
The only interior player of the Heat team was standing outside the three-point line at the moment, so Anjie easily grabbed the defensive rebound. If Spoelstra wants to attack with a small lineup, then rebounding, it's a part he has to give up.
Another offense was fruitless, and the Heat fans in Miami were already starting to panic. But the nightmare wasn't over yet, after Bosh missed the shot, Anjie immediately leaned on Bosh in the offense and made a rollover jumper.
The goal of this goal also announced that the paint area of the rose garden was completely dominated by Anjie. The Heat's headache-inducing interior is a key target for all teams, and with the exception of Bosh, the Heat's other interior players have gone to other teams and may not even be able to rotate.
Do you think Spoelstra really wants to play a small lineup? It's not a fad, it's that he's forced to be helpless!
If the Heat have a decent interior player, Spoelstra will definitely opt for a more traditional lineup.
It's just a pity that today, they met a guy who is enough to penetrate the Heat's interior line! What's even more terrifying is that this guy's desire to score today is terrifyingly high.
Don't trap Angel, this is Spoelstra's own order. But even if the rest of the Trail Blazers can't open it, how long can the Heat hold up under Anjie's firepower?
"The overlord walks to the basket and vigorously hangs the frame!Anjie, he reinterprets the violent aesthetics of the big man!"
"It's a hook hand that turns right!mm!?no, it's just a feint, and Ann tricks Bosh into turning in the opposite direction and picking up the basket with ease. Olajuwon's footsteps, I really learned a lot from An Jie!"
"Mid-range jumper! No, a shooting feint. Ann broke through Bosh, and Mike Miller bravely stepped up to the basket. Trick of the person! But Mike, he shouldn't be blocking An Jie's way! Two points are scored, and a penalty will be added!"
In the next few minutes, the most shouted in the commentary area was An Jie's name. The leader of the Trail Blazers used his practical actions to lower the Heat's hopes of winning the championship a little bit.
When Anjie was finally replaced, Spoelstra suddenly had a feeling that he was finally saved.
However, contrary to expectations, the rest of the Trail Blazers have long been impressed by An Jie's performance. They fight as hard as Anjie, and they don't intend to let their leader take all the blame alone. The Rose Garden is home to all of them! and it is a place where all of them have to do everything in their power to protect!
So throughout the first quarter, the Heat were exposed to the Trail Blazers' fierce firepower. Spoelstra's eight-man rotation is obviously a little too much to deal with, if James hadn't finally slashed 6 points in a row at the end of the first quarter, the Heat would have been defeated in the first quarter!
At 17-27, the first quarter ended with the Trail Blazers leading by 10 points. Catherine didn't finally sit back in her place until the end of the first quarter. She spent the entire 12 minutes of the game shouting and jumping wildly.
The bearded man couldn't help but smile as he watched the changes in his daughter. Back then, when the bearded man took Catherine to Iowa State University to watch the game, she was still a girl who didn't know anything about basketball and was very disdainful of Anjie.
And now, she has truly become an avid basketball fan. Of course, she is a fan who only belongs to An Jie.
"Great play! Great job! Did you see the look in the eyes of those guys!?The Heat won a bullshit championship, and they just don't know what to do right now!" Rickard high-fived his players one by one before setting up his tactics.
And the Heat's bench is, indeed, as Ricard said, lifeless.
"Assist in defense, give me active assistance. "If Anjie dares to bet on Bosh, then Spoelstra dares to bet on the rest of the Trail Blazers!
What if the rest of the Trail Blazers can't step up when Anjie is caught in the bag? Not to mention whether An Jie is willing to pass the ball, even if he is willing to pass the ball, other people who have not held the ball to attack for so long must be icy.
With this in mind, Spoelstra had no worries about entrapping Anjie. James is gearing up, and in the previous two games, his bag did not make An Jie suffer. Today, he also has to make An Jie pay the price!
The intermission time was fleeting in the frenzied atmosphere of the scene, and Spoelstra brought "Birdman" Anderson up again this time to make it as difficult as possible for Anjie, which was the Filipino's plan.
The Heat's first offense of the opening game was won by James making a foul free throw after breaking through. Although they lost two points in the second quarter, the Trail Blazers fans were still full of confidence.
Anjie still signaled Lillard not to speed up, although the Trail Blazers' fast and slow offense made the Heat very uncomfortable, but Anjie still hoped that the offense could pass through his own hands.
Just when Bosh and Anderson were preparing to trap An Jie, An Jie did not fall directly to the low position.
He made a pick-and-roll for Lillard near the three-point line, and Lillard immediately broke through.
Bosh and Anderson were a little at a loss, should they continue to defend Angel or protect the basket? In the end, Bosh alone mentioned the high post to defend Angel, and the task of protecting the frame fell to "Birdman" Anderson.
Anderson is on the lookout, although Lillard's finishing ability under the basket needs to be improved. But after the playoffs, the rookie of the year has improved a lot. If you take it lightly, you will likely be easily scored by Lillard.
Lillard burst into the three-second zone, but suddenly stopped and retreated. Anderson hurriedly pounced, and Lillard's mid-range shooting percentage was very good!
Seeing that Chalmers and Anderson were both attracted to him, Lillard suddenly turned his shot into a pass and hit the ball into Aldridge's hands.
Anderson is not stupid, he was also a fierce interior defender for the Nuggets back then. "Birdman" had long anticipated Lillard's chances of passing, so he kept his hand open and didn't completely change his focus.
So when Aldridge received the ball, Anderson immediately made up for it, raised his arms, and locked Aldridge's shooting space tightly.
Aldridge didn't regret being blocked, but secretly took the ball out with a behind-the-back pass.
The camera camera follows the fast-moving basketball, and An Jie suddenly appears on the screen, receiving Aldridge's back pass at the zero degree angle in the middle distance on the left.
"Where's Bosh?" the countless commentators wondered in unison. Looking at it again, Bosh was actually entangled by Iguodala's off-ball block!
An Jie received the ball and shot steadily, he is by no means the longest-range inside line in this league, but he is definitely the most stable inside line in the entire league!
Seeing that Bosh was blocked, James flew up the cover like a dead sheep. But An Jie's height and arm span advantage still made James pounce.
The basketball fell straight to the net without any suspense, and An Jie's offensive footsteps were still not contained.
Spoelstra's heart tightened, and the tactics of entrapping Anjie had failed before they could be implemented.
An Jie will not stupidly wait to be caught and then pass the ball this time, but with the efforts of everyone, let An Jie avoid being trapped!
Spoelstra's choice to bet on the rest of the Trail Blazers was undoubtedly the right thing to do, but first, he had to make it impossible for Angel to make a move.
Anjie continues to lead the game, and if the Heat want to win the championship, they must step over this tall No. 00!
James ripped off the headband from his head and threw it to the sidelines, a move that many people who are used to seeing him with a headband are not used to.
"Are you angry, or have you made up your mind?" Anjie pointed to the headband on his head at James. "If you can force me to take it too, the Heat will not be far from winning the championship. ”
Looking at An Jie's brisk pace when he retreated, James was very annoyed. Duncan, Nowitzki. In his career, there have already been two big men who have shattered their championship dreams.
Now, another An Jie has been killed. James said that he didn't want to fall on an inside player again!
The O'Brien Cup is in the luxurious box of the Rose Garden at the moment, but it may be bloodier and more difficult than imagined to lift the gold cup.
Anjie opened his arms, he didn't allow anyone to take that thing from the rose garden!
