Chapter 479: The Head Coach's Game (4/4!) )

113-91, the Cavaliers defeated the Heat in the program game and won the first victory in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Despite Wade's pre-game confidence, the Cavaliers seemed to be much stronger than he expected.

21 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists on 7-of-21 shooting, which was his first game, and the Cavaliers' shrinking defense made him look uncomfortable.

And Paul's big double-double of 30 points and 12 assists in the game fully proved his strength as the league's No. 1 point guard.

One game doesn't say anything, but two days later the second.

108 to 83, the same big win, the point difference is even bigger than the first game.

Wade continued to play sluggishly, making only 16 shots in the game, hitting 5 shots, and scoring 17 points, 4 assists and 5 turnovers.

Two matches, two big wins, 2-0.

Before the Eastern Conference finals, some people thought that the Heat would continue to counterattack, but after these two games, most people realized that it was impossible.

James's departure has a much smaller impact on this team than expected, or after last season's Big Three period, the Cavaliers' tactical system has been completely out, unless the Big Three are taken away, otherwise this kind of superstar and team combination of play, really strong horror.

And at the same time, the West Final also played the first two games, and the results were a big surprise.

The infinitely optimistic Thunder team seems to have been poisoned, after their first regrettable defeat, the second game was killed by Ginobili's three-point shot, and after two games, they have fallen behind 0-2, which can be directly fished in advance if they lose another game.

Originally, the Thunder were the most likely team to compete with the Cavaliers in terms of lineup configuration and strength, but now, they may be stopped by the Spurs from the Finals.

The third championship of the Cavaliers' dynasty is really within reach.

However, Tang Tian still remained very cautious, and kept emphasizing the details that need to be paid attention to in the next games at the regular meeting.

After the regular meeting, Casey and Tang Tian walked out together.

Casey couldn't hold back.

Although Tang Tian often likes to pretend to be forced in front of the media, he always looks cautious and rigorous in the team, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

"Don, take it easy, it's not good for you to keep your nerves tight like this."

"Hmm." Tang Tian nodded and didn't say much, he only thought that Casey cared about his body.

"The Heat shouldn't be a threat to us." Casey saw Tang Tian's reaction and continued.

"Eric is a little bit off the court, but he has a lot of adjustment ability, just look at the series between the Heat and the Bulls." Tang Tian shook his head.

Tang Tian said this, and Casey also nodded.

The two big wins made him forget about it, and Spoelstra's ability to adjust is really strong.

"If you were the head coach of the Heat, how would you adjust?" After chatting, Tang Tian chatted with Casey as he walked towards the office.

Casey thought about it for a long time, and it was obvious that the Heat and the Cavaliers not only had a gap in the tactical system, but also a lot worse in the configuration of role players, and this gap was even bigger than the gap between the two teams.

"I don't know, if I had to choose, I would shrink my defense and would rather block the opponent's three-point shooting." Casey concluded.

Tang Tian smiled, this is also a way, but in the end, depending on the opponent's face, he will become very passive.

Seeing Tang Tian smile, Casey was a little unconvinced.

Although Tang Tian's coaching ability is excellent, if it weren't for the Cavaliers' lineup configuration, the game would not have played like this.

The ability of the coach is very important, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and the strength of the coach is based on the players.

Seeing that Casey was not convinced, Tang Tian was not in a hurry, he went to the office and sat down, made a cup of coffee, and then he sat down and talked slowly.

"If I were Spoelstra, my first reaction would definitely be to adjust the starting lineup, let the space on the field be pulled out, and give Wade more room to break through, so that at least, there is a basis for attacking."

Casey was stunned for a moment after speaking, he belongs to a standard defensive coach, and he thinks about many questions from a defensive point of view, Tang Tian said this, he really didn't expect it.

But having said that, the Heat now have Mike Miller and James Jones in their roster, and there is no shortage of top-tier three-point shooters.

"Secondly, I will play a small lineup, let Bosh play the number five position, and pull Yao Ming out of the penalty area, so that the space on the court will be more open."

"But what about defense?" Casey immediately spoke, asking Bosh a skinny power forward to top Yao Ming, which was most likely exposed.

"Are they guarding against Yao now?" Tang Tian asked rhetorically.

Casey didn't speak, and the answer was obviously not to be guarded.

In fact, in these two games, because of the lethality of Paul's breakthrough, the highest assist rate was Yao Ming under the basket.

"And the small lineup, better than our big four and small defense, Bosh is an atypical interior lineman, and his movement speed is at least at the level of a small forward." Reporter Tang Tian added.

Casey nodded, this is true, the Cavaliers are now short in front and weak in defense, relying on speed to help defend rotation.

"In the end, I will be a firm bag carrier after Paul is off the court, Paul is only one, and he is the only one who can handle the ball so perfectly under the bag." Tang Tian finally said.

Three adjustments, Casey was stunned for a moment.

He suddenly felt that he might not know Tang Tian very well.

Maybe only one day when a real civilian team is given to Tang Tian will he really realize how awesome he is.

"It's good that you're not the head coach of the Heat." That's all Casey can say in the end.

Tang Tian smiled, he made a traverser, more to think about the problem by standing on the shoulders of giants.

"What do you think of Eric's words?" Casey then asked.

"He'll think of it." Tang Tian continued.

"Huh?" Casey seemed surprised, Spoelstra can be so powerful?

"Don't forget, he's a video analyst by training, and he works as an errand under a Zen master, and I don't think he's too bad in terms of tactics."

"Then we ......," Casey said again.

If Spoelstra could make so many adjustments, wouldn't the Cavaliers be very passive and likely to be cool?

"We can adjust too." Tang Tian smiled.

"All teams have weaknesses, just like our Big Three last season, in fact, the power forward position has not been able to be strengthened, and the Heat have a lot more problems than us."

Kathy was slightly excited.

In the following time, Tang Tian and Casey talked about how to deal with the problem of adjustment.

Casey was very excited after listening to it, he has never been that kind of tactical coach, but being an assistant coach under Tang Tian really benefited him a lot, if he worked for another year or two, he would be completely qualified as the head coach of a team.
