741: Poured into a soup chicken by three points of rain

The Miami Heat came prepared today, and anyone would be wrong to think that this game was just James trying to regain the leading role, and that it was just a big battle between Link and James.

Today, the entire Heat team will be working hard to win the game.

The picture of the Heat losing in the Finals last season is still deeply engraved in the minds of every Heat player.

As the biggest obstacle on the way to the Heat's championship, the Grizzlies are definitely the target that every Heat member wants to beat. From coaches to benches, everyone wants to find a way to contain the Grizzlies.

This was the last time the Heat played the Grizzlies before the Finals. Therefore, if the Heat can find a way to really contain the Grizzlies and win the game, then they will have a head start in the Finals.

If you try and make mistakes again when it comes to the finals, it will be too late. Even if the finals are best-of-7, every team has a chance to play seven games. But in the championship finals, every extra loss is extremely dangerous.

The Heat showed up at FedEx Arena with their brand new strategy, and everyone was going to do everything they could to make it work.

This game is far from being as simple as the showdown between Link and James. All members of the Heat will go out and fight.

As James said, this game is not about 72 wins, just about wins!

Thunder. After Allen hit a three-pointer, the fans in the stands didn't seem to be affected and still full of confidence.

The Grizzlies also quickly made a comeback, and unlike the Heat, the Grizzlies found Link as soon as they came up. Link has been perfect in the last seven games and everyone is hoping that Link can continue his good form.

Link confronted James, intending to pass him with his quick double change of direction. After the All-Star Game, Durant and George were both so shaken by Link's move that they couldn't take care of themselves, and they were both blown up by Link, but James was obviously more prepared than the first two.

Through the game video, James has long noticed the changes in Link's breakthrough. James was prepared for this.

When Link changed direction for the second time in a row, James was not thrown away like a stake, but immediately adjusted his center of gravity and followed!

Link was a little surprised, this was the first time he had been stopped after a continuous change of direction!

"Damn!" Link knows that he now only has 50% of the ankle strength of Peak Hill at best, so the speed of continuous change of direction is not the fastest in the league.

Therefore, in the case of being expected by the other party to break through the direction, it will indeed be prevented.

If he now has Hill's ankle before the injury, James may not be able to stop it even if he anticipates the direction of the breakthrough. It seems that the plan to fill in the small white bar still can't be stopped. In the world of competitive sports, there is no strongest, only stronger.

James continued to cling to Link, using his strong body to force Link to slow down.

Link carried James to the basket and was just about to go to the basket, only to find that he was instantly surrounded by Heat players in black jerseys.

"So fast!" Link was surprised by the Heat's defense, and when he broke through, it was clear that the defense hadn't shrunk. But when he walked to the basket, the Heat's defense instantly shrunk back!

This is the second change of the Heat today, quickly shrinking and defending the restricted area!

In last year's Christmas game, Link used a difficult rebound back pull to kill the game surrounded by the Big Three. That scene is still replayed by major TV stations from time to time, and is regarded as the most classic goal of the season.

But James believes Link can't score that magic goal every time. Shrinking the defense is still the best way to reduce Link's offensive efficiency.

If one person can't prevent it, then send two or three people! It's very simple.

Eventually, Link forced a layup under the double block of Bosh and James, because when he realized he was surrounded, it was too late to pass the ball.

However, even for Link now, this goal is still too difficult. Eventually, Link's layup bounced twice off the basket and eventually slipped down.

James immediately jumped twice to grab the rebound, and didn't give Link a second chance to attack!

Spoelstra yelled happily off the court, he thought that the defense just now was the Heat's best defense against Link since the Finals last season!

"The Heat contracted quickly, encircling Link almost instantaneously. I don't know if you noticed that when Link first made the basket, he was surrounded by Heat players wearing black city jerseys. Today, the Heat's defensive discipline was very good, and they came prepared! As James said, they won't let the Grizzlies take 72 wins easily, they'll fight until the last second! ”

Hubi. Brown began to sense that something was wrong, and even though the game had only been played for two rounds, the Heat were already in amazing form. In just two rounds, the Heat showed how well prepared they were.

The Heat continued to attack, and Link continued to smash James. At this time, the only person who can really be called a shooter on the Heat field is Ray. Aaron alone. Therefore, the Grizzlies did not expect the Heat to focus on the three-point line, and they still focused on James defensively.

James did have the ball this time, and Chalmers handed the ball to James just after halftime, to the guy who was about to break 2,000 points for the ninth consecutive season.

James didn't rush after holding the ball, but reached out and called Bosh to set up the screen, and then broke through to the side of the screen.

Link skimmed around Bosh and returned to James to put pressure on him. James slammed into it, causing Link to take a step back. I have to say that James's physical condition is really historic. He didn't need such bells and whistles as a double change, and he was done with his opponent.

Gasol immediately followed, and he went after James the moment the pick-and-roll was formed. After seeing Link being carried a step away, Gasol quickened his pace and ran away from Bosh completely.

James jumped lightly towards the basket, but in the hollow, he turned around and smashed the ball directly outside the three-point line!

Gasol felt that the word "smashing" to describe James' passing was too appropriate. Because James' passing speed is so fast, it's like smashing the basketball out with all his might.

But the media has a better way to describe James' kind of passing — the bullet pass.

The basketball flew from the inside to the three-point line, and if it weren't for Bosh's extreme concentration, he wouldn't have been able to catch the ball.

The advantage of a quick pass is that before the Grizzlies players can react, and before Gasol can pounce back on the three-point line, Bosh will be able to take a shot in stride!

"Breaking through the ball, LeBron's intention is very clear! Chris. Bosh shot at the top of the arc and has improved a lot from three-point range this season, with a 33.9 percent ......"

Hubi. Before Brown could finish speaking, the basketball jumped into the net.

The Heat hit two three-pointers in a row, 6-0!

"!" At this time, even the always elegant little Gasol couldn't help but curse a swear word. He felt like the Grizzlies' defense was being eaten to death by the Heat. It's easy for them to find holes in their defence.

James clapped his hands vigorously and applauded Bosh's goal. Link also thought that James would go crazy scoring for the milestone in this game, but it turned out that he was wrong.

That Heat No. 6 is a true leader!

Defending James alone today may not be able to kill the game easily. With this 72 wins, no one will give up.

The Heat were completely out of the box from beyond the three-point line at this point, hitting two straight three-pointers to allow the Heat to be more bold in their plans.

So in the next few minutes, the Heat's three-point goal became a string. In the fourth minute of the first quarter, James hit a three-pointer after a three-point threat, and the basketball was hollowed out as if it was being remotely controlled.

A minute later, Ray. Aaron got rid of Tony again. Allen's defense hit a three-pointer and hit his fourth three-pointer in a single quarter!

The Heat's players feel like a stubborn virus that infects each other, even Rassad, who came off the bench. Lewis has made his mark from beyond the three-point line since he came out.

Joggle adjusted his defensive strategy several times, but the Heat's three-point shot was too hot to be contained by tactics. And after the Heat's three-point shooting, the Grizzlies didn't dare to shrink their defense. James then had a very big advantage in the one-on-one with Link, and frequently hit the basket to win.

Eventually, Link played breathlessly for 10 minutes before taking a break, sweating profusely. But after the first quarter, the Heat led the Grizzlies by 8 points, 32-24!

The Heat shot 6 of 7 three-pointers in a single quarter, and the three-point shooting rate was as high as 85.7%, which was higher than the Grizzlies' free throw shooting rate in the first quarter! In the first quarter of the game, the Grizzlies were completely suppressed by the Heat! The storm came so hard that everyone on the Grizzlies was doused in the soup.

"The Miami Heat are on the verge of delivering a two-game losing streak to the Grizzlies at the end of the season! They shot from beyond the three-point line today, and the Grizzlies had a good first quarter, with Link still scoring eight points in a single quarter under the Heat's tight contraction. But even so, the Heat still managed to take a nearly double-digit lead! In the second quarter of the game, I don't know how the Grizzlies will adjust! ”

Link sat on the bench with a serious expression, and it had been a long time since he had been led by the nose by his opponent in a match. He knows that the Heat's super-high three-point shooting percentage is not an accident. If the Heat's three-point shooting percentage is just a coincidence, then just wait for them to cool down.

But today, the Heat completely overpowered the Grizzlies tactically. They were very well prepared for this match and executed every step perfectly. If no changes are made, even if the Heat's three-point shooting percentage is not so high in the next three quarters, it will never be low.

Dave. Joggle walks up to Link with a tactical board, and he realizes that he has made a stupid mistake.
