Chapter 157: Winning the Heat is as easy as eating and drinking

(It seems that the fifth watch cannot be reached, but the fourth watch of the guarantee is completed, and tomorrow there will be one more chapter on the basis of the two watches, which is considered to be the completion of the promise of the fifth watch.) )

"It was a tough game against Celtic and I was happy to see my players playing as well as they should have against a team with more experience than us, and that's a big reason why we won this game......

At the post-match press conference, Wang Xiao said a lot, many of which praised the opponent's tenacity and his own players playing well.

This makes the reporters feel a little strange, Wang Xiao doesn't say so much when he is interviewed on weekdays, and many times the reporter asks what he responds to, and he doesn't have a strange smile on his face.

Of course, the reporters didn't know that Wang Xiao hadn't woken up from the joy of winning the prize for the successful guess.

However, the focus of the reporters is not on Wang Xiao's abnormal expression, but on other aspects.

It is reported that just now, the Miami Heat has defeated the Los Angeles Lakers by 16 points on the road 96-80, and the Heat triumvirate performed well, with the three of them scoring 73 points. In two days, the Wizards will face the Heat at home. ”

A reporter stood up and said: "It is said that the Heat have been haunted by the home loss to the Wizards and want revenge in the game in two days, and against the Heat, who have been running in more and more successfully in recent weeks, are you and your team sure of winning?" ”

"Of course."

Hearing this question, Wang Xiao didn't think for a second, and immediately said: "We will win this game." ”

When the reporter who asked the question heard this, he immediately smiled, and Wang Xiao's categorical answer made him very satisfied.

"Excuse me, what is the source of your confidence?"

Wang Xiao thought for a while, and then this reporter, "Do you have a reason to eat every day?" ”

The reporter was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "If you're hungry, you want to eat, what more reason do you need?"

Wang Xiao smiled. "So, why do we need a reason to win against the Heat? Winning the Heat is like eating and drinking every day for me. ”

……

That night, Wang Xiao's sentence was immediately quoted, replacing the Heat's victory over the Lakers in the Christmas game and becoming the headline of countless sports newspapers and magazines.

"Beating the Heat is as easy for me as eating and drinking......

Looking at a report on the Internet, James couldn't help but roll his eyes, and even got a triple-double, and the joy of leading the team to defeat the Lakers was also washed away a lot.

"How dare this guy say it!"

Wade was on the side, and said with a smile: "People still have the capital to say this, after all, the Wizards are the first in the league now, and we can only rank third in the East and fifth in the league." ”

"Hmph, it's only a matter of time before we catch up with them." James snorted, "Two days later, let them know that there is a price to pay for eating and drinking." ”

While James was talking about it, Heat general manager Pat Brown. Riley and manager Spoelstra are also in discussions about it.

"In the next game, I don't want the team to lose to that guy again."

Inside the General Manager's Office, Pat. Riley looked at his disciple with a serious face.

This summer, Riley, who single-handedly formed the Big Three, can be said to be a man of the year and is talked about by countless people.

However, among the countless compliments, there is an outlier.

"The Big Three? I haven't heard of it, I only know about the Celtic Big Three. ”

In front of the media, Wang Xiao used this sentence to show his disdain for the Heat.

And on the court, the Heat, who were fighting at home, lost to Wang Xiao's Wizards.

Now, Wang Xiao is once again speaking wildly, claiming that his defeat of the Heat is as normal as people need to eat and drink.

If the Heat are defeated by the Wizards in this situation, it will be a real disgrace!

The Heat, who make up the Big Three, can't beat the Wizards team of a group of rookie players plus a rookie head coach?

This is simply the biggest joke of the year!

"Of course! This game can't be lost! ”

Spoelstra nodded in agreement.

"Judging by the Christmas game against the Wizards and the Celtics, this team has really become a powerhouse in the East in a very short period of time."

"Last season, the Celtics were swept 4-0 in the Eastern Conference finals only because of the injury of the team's main player Curry, and the Celtics may not be able to beat them this season."

"As a result, the Wizards may be our most threatening opponent in the Eastern Conference in the playoffs! Find a way to deal with the Wizards' run-and-gun tactics in at least four games of the regular season. ”

But, having said that, the small-ball tactics that were born out of the future Warriors are very different from the Suns' run-and-gun tactics. Nash will do it.

But if you want to prevent the Wizards' small-ball tactics, you must not only lock Curry, but also limit Harden's play, and at the same time pay extra attention not to give the Wizards' outside shooters an open opportunity to shoot three points.

Even the Celtics, who have the strongest defense in the league, have not been able to completely contain the Wizards' offense in previous games.

Although 105 points is 10 points lower than the Wizards' average points per game, it is 13.9 points higher than the Celtics' average of 91.1 points per game!

The Heat's defense is still quite far behind the Celtics.

"You don't need to care about the Wizards' offense!" Riley shook his head and said: "In the arena, what you need to do is very simple, only one point, to maximize the strength of the Big Three, once those three find their form on the field, it will be unbeatable!" ”

As a legendary coach, Riley has a unique eye, and he sees it better than Spoelstra.

The Heat's current defensive ability is not strong, with Chalmers on the outside and Joel on the inside. For a bench player like Anthony, two holes on the defensive end determine that the Heat's defensive quality will inevitably not improve.

Haslem, the only defensive blue-collar player on the team to rely on, was also reimbursed for the season due to injury not long ago.

Aside from the Big Three, there is no one to use on the defensive end.

In fact, the Heat's defense was indeed the biggest problem in the first year of the Big Three.

It is precisely because of this problem that the Heat can only rank second behind the Chicago Bulls in the regular season after forming the Big Three in another time and space.

It wasn't until the second season that defensive titan Battier came to shoot and Haslem returned from injury, which improved the defensive quality of the Heat team, and there was a story of the playoffs all the way to defeat the Thunder to win the championship.

Now that the Heat's defensive ability is not good, the only thing that can be done is to maximize the team's advantages, that is, to fully exert the power of the Heat Big Three.

However, I'm afraid either Pat. Neither Riley nor Spoelstra can fully understand the terrifying power of small-ball tactics on offense, nor can they understand that the current Wizards are very different from the previous team against the Heat in terms of defensive ability!
