Chapter 391: Shoulder Knock Door
According to past practice, the person who stood up for the Warriors to respond to the opponent's provocation should be Chen Mo. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info or they also changed to a small lineup and the opponent's steel head-on, but this time the Warriors did not rush to call a timeout for substitutions, and Chen Mo did not mean to let his teammates pull away from the singles.
The ball came to Stephen Curry.
It would be extremely stupid for Shaun Williams to accept his gamble, and he doesn't think Chen Mo will be able to help his teammates score points against the mighty Miami Heat. But Chen Mo just has such an ability, and he also does the things that help his teammates score blatantly.
After Curry got the ball, he moved sideways to the left, and Chen Mo went over to help Curry block it.
Chen Mo rarely helps his teammates with the ball to block and dismantle like this, and now he is obviously deliberately creating opportunities for Curry to perform.
Although Chen Mo and Curry have never played a pick-and-roll in a game, this first pick-and-roll effect turned out to be good.
James and Wade had a tacit understanding in defense in an instant, after all, Chen Mo has always been a dangerous element, and the first reaction of both of them was to go to Chen Mo.
James, who has been responsible for marking Chen Mo, believes that directly changing the defense cannot give Chen Mo and Curry any bit of space. And Wade feels that in this crowded position, Curry can't shoot directly in such a small space, and it is most reasonable not to change the defense and not disrupt their own defensive system.
Curry seized the opportunity and took a step back directly, Wade reacted and it was too late to turn around and kill, Curry stepped on the three-point line half a step away and shot three points directly.
This distance was just a normal shot range for him, and the ball landed into the basket with precision and grace.
Why elegant?
Because the ball fell directly from the top of the basket into the hoop like a three-stick ball again, the relatively loose net shook without shaking.
Chen Mo went up and gave Curry a hug, "Kick their ass hard with a three-point shot." ”
In the past three minutes, Chen Mo has completely played a supporting role for Curry, and he has been blocking and covering Curry. And Curry also threw in 3 three-pointers very powerfully. A 3-of-4 three-pointer allowed Curry to score nine points in a row, plus Chen Mo threw in a 3-pointer and assisted David Lee to score a dunk by the way. The Warriors went on a 14-10 run, and they allowed the Heat to hit three high-quality counter-attacks without changing the lineup, but still took the lead on the score.
"The Oaklanders still had the advantage despite the Miami's back-to-back high-quality counter-attacks, thanks to Stephen Curry's play. Miller praised Curry again, and he was actually telling the truth. But when he said this, it was obviously completely from the position of Chen Mo and the warriors.
"If Jack Chan had played on his own, they might have had a bigger advantage right now. Kevin Harlan said.
"Not necessarily, no one can say they are better than Stephen. Even if I was in great shape, I could only make three three-pointers in that amount of time. Miller said: "I admit that Jack Chan is better than me, but he doesn't always play like that. ”
Miller and Harlan argued in the commentary box, while James looked very uncomfortable. To sum up, his current mood is probably "blue thin" and "shiitake mushroom".
"I don't suggest we change the line-up, just keep going with them. We continue to pick up the pace, and I don't believe it's worse than them. "James was furious.
Battier was already very tired from running just now, and the high-frequency defense of the small lineup and the sudden high-intensity defense in a small area made such a veteran physical fitness almost to the limit. But since the big guy of the team still insisted on playing a small lineup, he decided to grit his teeth and stick to it when he first arrived.
The Warriors made a small lineup after this timeout, and their lineup this time was the same as the one they had in the first quarter.
Jackson's play gave a little more hope to James's gloomy eyes, "That guy can't run fast, we can definitely drag them down if we play faster." ”
After the Miami Heat returned last season, James has become the absolute core of the team, even if fans always think that this is Wade's team, but in fact this is already James's team.
Wade didn't make any comments, and it was impossible for him and James to fall out over such a trivial matter.
The game soon restarted, and Chen Mo firmly controlled the team's rhythm in his hands.
The Warriors used pick-and-rolls and screens plus ball drive and quickly found opportunities in positional battles. Jackson ran to the big empty space in the bottom left corner, and Chen Mo raised his arm and threw the ball directly over.
Chen Mo's pass was sudden and fast.
Jackson took the ball and shot it straight away, and he was more sure of his top-point shooting than he was last season.
The ball grazed the inside of the rim and went into the rim, and the Warriors hit another three-pointer.
Reggie Miller said: "When a bunch of people who can shoot threes come out on the court, the three-pointers hit the opponent too hard. ”
Jackson's speed can still find space there, which can only show that the Warriors have just pulled all of the Heat's defensive focus to the left side. So much so that Jackson ran to the position, and no Heat player had time to make up after receiving the pass.
The attack took 23 seconds for the Warriors, and the Warriors' positional battles were beautiful, but no one thought they were slow. Because the ball has been moving, after many passes, the ball returned to Chen Mo's hands again. In the end, Chen Mo gave Jackson again, which was the final hammer of their string of passes.
The Heat came back and relied on James to force Jackson to play a 2+1, Jackson is on the court, and the Warriors have weaknesses on the defensive end, which has no way.
The Heat have always wanted to speed up and want to take advantage of Jackson's speed shortcomings to break down the Warriors. However, the Warriors played extremely patiently, constantly using the pass to find space and space, and trying not to give the Heat a chance to counterattack.
On the contrary, the Miamins, who became more and more impatient, gave the Warriors a chance to fight back.
James slipped into the Warriors' designed defensive pocket, and his impatient layup slammed into the basket.
The warriors, who had been playing extremely patiently before, and each attack was bound to take more than 20 seconds, instantly launched a galloping counterattack.
Kirilenko grabbed the rebound, and Curry took the ball and ran directly to the opponent's basket.
The offensive organization when counterattacking requires more cooperation between players, especially in a model like the current Warriors, Chen Mo is not the only organization point.
Jackson dragged behind, Chen Mo moved to the bottom corner, Millsap cut to the basket from the wing, and Kirilenko went straight to the basket from the middle.
Chen Mo was afraid that Curry would stop the ball, so he shouted as he ran: "Don't stop, don't stop, just give it to the basket." ”
Curry glanced at the court before slamming the ball into Millsap's hand.
Millsap was about to get the ball, but the Heat's defense was not slow, and he was already stuck with a James in front of him.
Millsap passed the ball to Chen Mo, and as soon as Chen Mo received the ball, Wade came to his side.
Chen Mo didn't show any impatience on his face, and although the opportunity to counterattack was fleeting, he still threw the ball to Kirilenko after a feint shot.
Kirilenko returned the ball to Curry, and Chen Mo started to move as he passed. Wade followed closely beside Chen Mo, and when Chen Mo walked around Curry, Curry pulled the ball behind him and handed the ball to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo spun the ball behind him, but before Wade could react, the ball had reached Jackson's hand.
Jackson had a chance to shoot directly when he got the ball, and he didn't waste this opportunity by raising his hand to hit another three-pointer.
The Warriors' barrage of passes were just right, and Jackson just ran to them, and their ball spun around and went right into Jackson's hands.
Chen Mo turned around and pointed to the TV camera on the sidelines, and everyone who knew the grudge between Chen Mo and Sean Williams understood that he was provoking the other party!
James slapped his palms angrily, and they still lost in the clash of small lineups.
While he understands the weaknesses of the Warriors' roster, they can't bring up their speed.
At halftime, the Warriors led the Heat 69-54.
The Heat's small lineup has no advantage against the Warriors, and they have the best forwards and shooting guards for the small lineup, but they still can't find any advantage against the Warriors.
At the end of the day, they have one less point guard who can control the team's tempo.
James has always had to take on the responsibility of playmaking forward in the Heat, but his playmaking pass can only do the ball to open teammates in positional battles, and he can't completely control the team's tempo in a small lineup.
Not to mention that their opponent is Chen Mo, who is a super defender who can perfectly master the rhythm of a small lineup and disrupt the rhythm of the opponent.
"It's in the guards!" Miller said, "If it's a combination of Jack-Chan and Vedder and James, give the three of them a few reasonable role players at random, and they'll be enough to crush any team." It's hard to imagine that kind of power. It's a pity that we don't see such a combination being born. ”
"Actually, they became teammates at last year's All-Star Game, but it's a pity that ......" Kevin Harlan was obviously eager to see how terrifying the small lineup would be when the three of them teamed up.
In the locker room, Chen Mo didn't talk much, although he is the head coach of the team's shadows, if the team's tactics did not have problems in the first half, he would not stand in the middle of the locker room like the head coach and talk for a long time. It's all done by Timothy Glenn.
Timothy Glenn usually gives a simple speech on the theme of encouragement at halftime.
And in the away team dressing room next door, the atmosphere is much more solemn.
Spoelslav was very dissatisfied with James's insistence on playing a small lineup in the first half, "In the second half, we have to seize the advantage of attacking in the half and play a good defense. Auckland's low post is a weakness, looking for space and opportunities from the low post. And we're going to grab every rebound, and we're going to take the second chance as much as we can. ”
Spoisla was ready to put the key points that would decide the outcome of the game on the inside, and he asked James to play power forward. Although James didn't like this arrangement, he could only pinch his nose and admit it.
The second half was quickly underway, with James picking up the ball on the flank and heading straight at Millsap.
Bosh came over to block James, James took the ball and took a step back, and after Bosh stood up, James started to break through.
James strode in stride, and once his pace picked up, no one in the league could stop him.
Kirilenko contracted quickly, and Biedrins also pushed up, his waist was closed, and his upper half was turned on his back, and the ball was stuffed directly into Bosh's hands.
Bosh dunked the ball in with ease.
Taking advantage of the inside, the Heat regained their advantage. Chen Mo decisively signaled to Timothy Glenn to call a timeout.
If the Heat want to use the interior to make a fuss, then put the key to the decisive line on the inside.
"Let's go up to the Twin Towers!" Chen Mo said calmly: "Use the height of David (Lee) and Andris (Biedrins) to forcibly attack their inner line." The interior line of LeBron (James) and Chris (Bosh) is a disadvantage in terms of height. ”
After going up to the Twin Towers, the Warriors sat down completely and played half-court offense. This kind of offense is slow, but it is different from the slow lineup when Jackson was on the court before.
If that lineup is like a dagger, it uses local speed and agility to get kills. This lineup is like a heavy sword, although it doesn't show too much edge, but the lethality is still amazing.
Today, tactically speaking, Chen Mo and the Warriors have the absolute upper hand. Every time he adjusted, he hit the weak link of the Miami Heat's tactics.
By the time the game entered the fourth quarter, the Warriors had led by as many as 21 points.
The Heat looked like they were about to lose a rout, but the power of the Big Three's individual power exploded at the start of the fourth quarter.
James and Wade take turns holding the ball and picking it in, and I'll pick it again when you're tired.
To put it bluntly, this team is still a team built with Chen Mo as the absolute core, as long as Chen Mo is not there, the opponent can find the loopholes and flaws in their lineup.
But in the end, because the previous pit was too big and Chen Mo stabilized the situation on the field after his return, Miami finally returned home in Oakland.
The final score of 109-118 could not convince the Miamins, and there was an interesting scene on the court after the game.
James was going back to the locker room after the game, and he ignored the hug of the team's head coach Spoisla, and he directly slammed Spoisla away with his shoulder, as if there was no one in front of him.
This incident was directly named "shoulder knock door" by the reporters at the scene. ”
After the game, a reporter asked Chen Mo about the shoulder door. Chen Mo felt that the Miami Heat might be infighting, but he would definitely not say these things after the game.
"As an outsider, I can't make up my mind about this. But it's an interesting thing, and I'll keep an eye out for the rest of the media. Chen Mo said.
The game finally played some of the games that Chen Mo expected, and they were able to control their opponents by passing the ball while Jackson was on the floor. However, Jackson's own weaknesses are too great, and he can't help the team on the defensive end.
"Whew!" Chen Mo took off his jersey after returning to the locker room, and the Under Armour tight vest worn on his upper body highlighted his muscle lines to the fullest.
"Let's run in this lineup first!" Chen Mo said to himself: "This kind of game is more interesting to play." ”
