The 76ers lost Game 5 of the series, and the situation is not optimistic. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Brett Brown is a rookie coach, this is the first time he has coached a team alone, and Brett Brown has been in Australia before, he has little connections in North America, and the team does not even have a head assistant coach, just Lloyd Pierce as an assistant coach instead of the head assistant coach.

So, at a critical juncture, Brett Brown didn't even have an experienced assistant, and in the playoffs, he couldn't ask Popovich for advice like he did in the regular season.

As a result, Brett Brown could only meditate on his own, and then before Game 6 at the American Airlines Arena, the 76ers also made a change of formation.

A change of formation in response to the Heat's change of formation, Pau Gasol was pushed to the center position, Anxi was pushed to the power forward position, James Anderson started, and other positions remained unchanged.

It seems that this is also a small lineup, among the small ones, the height of the inside line is also taken into account, coupled with Anxi's role in assisting defense on the defensive end, the defensive end will not be too bad, such a change of formation is a good response.

But whether it will work depends on the situation in the game.

"The game started, the two sides fought for the ball, Chris Bosh grabbed the ball, and the Heat attacked first." In this game, Turner Sports still sent a commentary trio of Craig Sager, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.

In this game, not only did the 76ers make changes to the lineup, but even the Heat also continued to make changes after summarizing the shortcomings of the previous game.

Chris Bosh returned to the starting lineup, but the center position was Greg Oden, who made his Heat playoff debut in the last game, and Oden showed a decent interior rim protection ability in the last game, and he is obviously a better candidate for the interior starting center with both height.

Therefore, just when the 76ers changed to a small lineup, the Heat returned to a very normal starting lineup.

Mario Chalmers at point guard, Wade at shooting guard, LeBron James at small forward, Bosh at power forward, and Oden at center.

Therefore, for the 76ers' change of lineup and the Heat's change of starting lineup, Turner Sports' commentary trio has different opinions.

"The 76ers chose to change the lineup, they put out a small lineup, which is obviously a measure for the 76ers to deal with the Heat's change of lineup, but will such a change really work? Anxi appeared in the position of power forward, obviously to let Anxi take care of the protection of the basket, and put the pressure of defense and offense on Anxi alone, is it really okay? Judging from the 76ers' change of lineup, the 76ers may still lose this game. ”

Charles Barkley is obviously not very optimistic about the 76ers' change of formation, the Heat won a big victory with a small lineup in the last game, and the 76ers were forced to make a change of formation in this game, and it is really hard to say what the effect of the change of formation is.

Craig Sager noticed the Heat's starting lineup at this time: "Greg Oden came to the starting lineup instead of Chris Anderson, and Chris Bosh also returned to the starting lineup, aren't the Heat ready to continue to speed up this game?" ”

Charles Barkley shook his head: "Oden's speed is not slow, and the Heat's fast offense and defense still have a chance to play." ”

Kenny Smith didn't speak until Craig Sager and Charles Barkley finished speaking, and he began to express his opinion: "The 76ers' change of formation is indeed a bit of a dangerous victory, but there is nothing to say, the 76ers do not change the formation, this game still has to be lost, it is better to change the formation after the game." ”

Kenny Smith's argument was not opposed by the other two, after all, judging from the process and results of the last game, under the regular lineup, the 76ers will definitely not be able to withstand the rapid impact of the Heat.

In the time that the three were talking, the Heat and the 76ers had played several waves of offense and defense on the court, and they had dealings with each other, but neither of them scored.

After the two teams changed formations, the offense did not improve, but the defense did better, and the defensive end moved faster, which made the pace of the game faster and the intensity increased.

After playing for more than two minutes in a row, the Heat broke through by LeBron James and caused Jack Crowder to foul, went to the free throw line and hit both free throws to score the first point of the game.

And then the 76ers also opened, and Anxi continued to play without the ball, this time he ran back to catch the ball, and made a mid-range jumper, which also scored 2 points.

However, after the two teams scored two points each, they fell silent again.

Wade missed the mid-range shot after the fast break, and Anxi, who had been guarding under the basket, grabbed the rebound and launched a fast attack.

But the Heat had already prepared, and in the fast break, they prevented McCarvey's layup.

Instead, he played a wave of fast attack with the 76ers, but fortunately, Anxi had not retreated, and Chris Bosh was rewarded with a big hat in the backcourt.

In this way, they fought with each other, and they missed in various fast attacks.

But the game was inevitably mastered by the Heat, after all, the Heat's counterattack fast break quality was better, and after the first quarter, the Heat took a 5-point lead at 25:20.

And from the second quarter, the 76ers replaced Kerr Aldridge, which finally freed Anxi from the inside.

As a result, the 76ers also launched a wave of counterattacks.

At halftime, the 76ers trailed the Heat by three points, 49-52.

In terms of scores, the 76ers have done their best in this game, and they still have hope of winning the game.

The game played until 2 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the score of the two teams has been anxious, did not pull away, although the Heat has maintained the lead, but the lead is only two or three points, and when there are 2 minutes left in the game, the Heat only led the 76ers by 2 points at 99:97, but the ball is still in the hands of the Heat.

For the 76ers, they must defend against the Heat's next offense so that they have a chance to equalize or even overtake.

The game was so anxious, the Heat fans on the sidelines didn't want to see this scene, they preferred to see the team can lock up the win, after all, it is the Heat who are now behind by a big score, and if they lose this game, the Heat will go home.

Of course, the Heat are now at home.

The Heat's offense, they directly put on a posture and kept choosing to break through for a moment.

LeBron James held the ball himself, and he accelerated to shake off Jack Crowder, and the American Airlines arena suddenly resounded with crazy cheers.

LeBron James strode into the penalty area, and An Xi, who was guarding the basket in the penalty area, had to let go of Bosh and go up.

But LeBron James was not greedy, he chose to pass.

The basketball was given to Chris Bosh on the other side, and Bosh shot from mid-range, and with a bang, cheers rang out from the American Airlines arena and resounded across the Miami land.

"A key shot, Anxi's supplementary defense gave the Heat a chance, a 4-point lead, see how the 76ers deal with the next shot!"

The 76ers' offense, time is running out, and they also need to hurry, so McCarvey made a gesture after half court after controlling the ball.

An Xi in the bottom corner understood and began to run.

"McCarvey's breakthrough, he took advantage of Pau Gasol's block, and rushed in! Oh no, he's got the ball, Anxi! He catches the ball and shoots, and it's a three-pointer! ”

Anxi jumped up from the three-point line, and he faced Wade's defense and threw this three-point shot.

"The ball is in! Beautiful goal! Anxi's key three points, the difference was narrowed to 1 point! It's a proven way to chase points! ”

As soon as the 76ers narrowed the gap to 1 point, the Heat immediately seized the opportunity and only spent 10 seconds to play a wave of counterattacks.

In the counterattack, Mario Chalmers received the ball and shot, McCarvey's defense made a major mistake, he kept retreating to the inside line when he returned to defense, and as a result, he missed Chalmers who held the ball on the outside and counterattacked, Chalmers made a three-point shot, and hit a three-point shot! Once again, the Heat extended the margin to four points.

McCarvey on the field hugged his head, and An Xi frowned, there was still one minute left in the game, and time was running out.

But then, the 76ers' offense missed, and An Xi's counter-run catch shot, but missed!

At this moment, Craig Sager began to announce the death sentences of 76 people.

"Anxi's middle pitch! Miss! At the critical moment, the 76ers relied too much on Anxi's offense, but Anxi suffered from the Heat's strict defense, he needed to catch the ball by running, and then shoot the ball when he received it, which was too difficult! ”

"If the ball doesn't score, maybe the 76ers will lose this game, and the series will enter the tiebreaker!"

With 41 seconds left in the game, An Xi gritted his teeth and shouted at his teammates: "We still have a chance, defend against the next ball!" (To be continued.) )
