"So fast!"

As soon as the game began, the Heat used a stormy offensive and defensive rhythm to catch the Lakers off guard.

"It's... Is this the SHOWTIME system? Fisher, who was sitting on the bench, widened his eyes, and the five Heat players on the court seemed to be integrated into a whole, with exaggerated offensive and defensive switching rhythms, and the continuous small-range 2V2 and 3V3 offensive tactics in a small range after the fast attack run were smooth!

Although Tim Hardaway couldn't play consecutive individual singles under Kobe's defense, his ball control and organization Bryant couldn't stop him. AFTER ALL, TIM HARDAWAY'S BALL CONTROL WAS ALREADY HISTORIC, AND HIS CROSSOVER WAS ALWAYS THE LEAGUE'S FIRST BEFORE IVERSON APPEARED!

That's right, Tim Hardaway was the first generation of defenders to use a lot of forward shifting. Before him, there were almost no guards who used forward change of direction as their primary scoring tool, and Hardaway did!

His unusually good ball sense, diminutive stature, low center of gravity and blistering speed make him a great master of the crossover technique. Coupled with his excellent mid-to-long-range jumper and top-notch passing ability, Tim Hardaway has become one of the few point guards in history who can average 20+10 per game.

From the 1980s to the present, so far, only Magic Johnson, Big O Oscar Robertson, smiling assassin Isaiah Thomas and Tim Hardaway can get an average of 20+10 per game, which can fully explain the greatness of 20+10 point guards.

Tim Hardaway carefully studied Kobe's defensive video before the game, and he found that although Kobe Bryant obviously had a very strong suppression effect against a short point guard, this suppression was mainly reflected in the score! Every short guard who wants to break through Kobe's strict defense to score is very miserable.

And unlike scoring, Tim Hardaway found that playmaking and passing were not the same. Bryant's height of 1.98 meters means that he has no way to block the passing control of these short guards who are around 1.80 meters.

Tim Hardaway did a very simple thing, completely ditching his individual offense and transforming into a role similar to Stockton, or even Stockton with fewer shots!

So far, it's been very good! Kobe Bryant did have no way to take Tim Hardaway's organizational pass, Tim Hardaway is only 1.83 meters, Kobe is 15 centimeters taller than him, such a height difference, it is impossible to keep pressing, the difference in center of gravity makes it very difficult to press. Bryant's defense, a short guard, is to attack around the three-point range, bully with strength if he's thin, and use excellent lateral moves and reach to suppress if he's slow.

But Tim Hardaway, both in terms of speed and strength, is very good among point guards. Kobe Bryant really couldn't suppress his passing and playmaking.

Under Tim Hardaway's control, the Heat's SHOWTIME system worked perfectly. What is the SHOWTIME system?

The SHOWTIME system is a holistic run-and-gun system in which all players, whether stars or role players, are constantly running, passing, cutting and blocking. The ball is in motion all the time, not in the hands of any one star.

GORGEOUS PASSING CONTROL IS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE SHOWTIME SYSTEM, AND THIS STYLE OF PLAY IS ACTUALLY SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO BARCELONA IN FOOTBALL. Constantly pulling the defense with his feet backwards, and finally a fatal blow.

ANOTHER VERY STRIKING FEATURE OF SHOWTIME IS THEIR ABILITY TO CATCH COUNTERS AND FAST BREAKS. As we all know, in the strong confrontation, it is very smooth to counterattack and fast attack. The higher the intensity of the game, the more focused the defense will be, and the faster the defense will retreat. At this time, if you play a counterattack, the error rate will become higher, and the hit rate will not be satisfactory. A lot of times, the fast break is running, and it will still slow down and fall into position.

And SHOWTIME is a tactic that can still eliminate high-quality defensive counterattacks under high-intensity confrontation, and Pat Riley has countless fast-break schemes, and small-scale offensive tactics make the team's fast-break defense invincible.

But SHOWTIME is not invincible, and the foundation of SHOWTIME is always built on stars. The stronger the star and the higher the talent, the more powerful SHOWTIME will be, and it can also be said that SHOWTIME is an aristocratic tactic, and there is no way to achieve it without good players. The more talented the team, the more they can suppress the opponent.

The current first-generation Heat Big Three, the Heat in 06, and the Heat in the LBJ era are actually with the SHOWTIME theoretical system. There are a lot of common plays. Pat Riley's tactics are always at the service of the stars, and the stronger the stars, the more powerful SHOWTIME will be!

ALTHOUGH THE TALENT AND ABILITY OF THE CURRENT FIRST-GENERATION TRIUMVIRATE ARE NOT AS GOOD AS THE HEAT TRIUMVIRATE LED BY THE CHOSEN ONE IN LATER GENERATIONS, THEY ARE ALSO CRUSHING THE CURRENT LAKERS.

Tim Hardaway doesn't need to score, he just needs to bring the rhythm. And the most critical point is that the tough guy Amozo Mourning has not lost his male sex characteristics, and he is still a peerless hunk who can average 8.6 free throws per game!

Mo Ning easily squeezed away the yin-yang man Campbell, raised his hand to take the basketball from Hardaway's hand, and then leaned back, knocked Campbell away without much force, and then turned around and dunked!

This has happened many times! And the Lakers have nothing to do with him! 27-year-old Mourning is in the prime of life! His fitness is almost endless, and it's unrealistic for the Lakers to expect him to be out of fitness.

And Mashburn's excellent offensive skills, after being integrated into the SHOWTIME system, have also been reborn! Bowen's defense was very good, but Marshburn felt even better today! Repeatedly relying on the more dominant physical talent advantage, he caught Bowen off guard in the offensive and defensive transitions.

The Heat triumvirate is in full swing!

And the Lakers' offensive performance in the first quarter was also very average, and Kobe Bryant didn't feel very good in the first quarter. Against Sasha Danilovic's defense, Bryant scored just four points on 2-of-5 shooting.

When Bryant doesn't feel good, the Lakers' offense tends to get a mess. Today is like this, although Kobe has paid great attention to the cultivation of his teammates, but his teammates are still very dependent on Kobe.

Eddie Jones singled Tim Hardaway and actually lost in a row, which made Harris on the sidelines anxious to stomp his feet.

In the first quarter, the Lakers 18:32 Heat.

The game almost presented a situation of defeat, in the second quarter Harris replaced Dell Curry and Horry on the court, the Lakers' bench group still crushed the Heat, and in the second quarter, the excellent play of the old Curry and Horry recovered a lot of scores for the team.

Seeing this, Harris simply asked Kobe Bryant to take the old Curry and Horry and the Heat triumvirate to play fast.

The Lakers replaced the super five lineup of Kobe, Curry, Jones, Horry, and Ben Wallace.
