44:30, Rick. Carlisle frowned and glanced at the score on the big screen above, he could not have imagined that in the first quarter, there was still a win-loss situation on the court, and the second quarter turned into a one-sided suppression state in the opening minutes of the second quarter, and the margin widened to double digits.

Dwyan. Wade played about six minutes in the first quarter before going off the bench and didn't come back on until the start of the second quarter. The second lineup led by 'The Flash' burst out with strong combat effectiveness, and played a wave of 13:4 suppressive small climaxes within three minutes, and the efficient firepower output bombarded the opponent for a while.

Strictly speaking, the Mavericks' bench shouldn't have been so bad, and they also have Jose. Barria, Devon. Harris and Charlie. A good rotation player like Villanueva. But this second lineup had too many holes in defense, and the Heat seized the opportunity.

Since returning from injury, Wade's playing time has been more limited and adjusted, and now he basically leads the second team in the second and third quarters. During this time, opponents will basically rotate their lineups, and the 'Flash' will receive less defensive intensity, and the ball will be more concentrated in his hands, which is also more suitable for Wade to play freely.

The Heat themselves also like this adjustment, the playing time has not decreased too much, but the space for him to play has increased, so why not?

Kill Wade to the Rising Again by Sean. Williams' cover rushed inside, and in the face of Villanueva's reinforcement, he took a sideways step to lift the ball upwards, lifting the opponent's center of gravity and accelerating into the box. Wade, who sprinted up, seemed to have returned to the state of flying away from his youth. Smith dunked the ball into the basket with one hand before blocking!

Almost everyone on the Heat's bench stood up, smirking and applauding the team's boss's dunk. In the past two seasons, the number of dunks Wade has been greatly reduced compared to before, and it is rare to even see him perform violent dunks again. On the one hand, his physical functions began to deteriorate, and Wade's ability to flash and move or directly dunk against defenders was also eroded; On the other hand, the 'Flash' himself is also protecting his health, and in order to reduce injuries, he took the initiative to reduce the frequency of dunks after hand-to-hand combat with the inside.

Rick. Carlisle called a timeout after seeing Wade dunk, and the Heat had completely overpowered the Mavericks in momentum during this time, and this dunk made the Miami people reach a peak of momentum. If left unchecked, the Mavericks may end up in the second quarter......

Carlisle didn't criticize his players with annoyance, and he also knew that the team's second team was very porous defensively. There are no players in the entire Mavericks team who are suitable to limit Wade, and today's 'Flashes' are in excellent form, especially with accurate mid-to-long-range shooting. From Monta. Ellis to Devon. Harris to Jose. Barria, Wade saw one by one, firing at full power.

Carlisle thought about it for a long time, and could only choose to put Tyson. Chandler re-entered the court to strengthen the team's basket protection and prevent the 'Flash' from getting inside so easily to cause damage. Originally, he also wanted to let Aminu in the No. 3 position change Wade, but after the timeout, Carlisle saw that Spoelstra actually re-replaced Ruhr. Deng was replaced, and he hurriedly canceled the decision.

Joke?! Jean Devon. Harris or Barria go to defend the Ruhrs. Deng? Really when the British's off-ball offense and height and reach are ornaments?!

Tyson. Chandler did make the box defense a little stronger when he came on the court, but the Heat's perimeter line also began to divert offense from Wade. Granger & Sean. Williams each made a three-pointer. After the Mavericks had to expand their defense, Ruhr. Deng cut inside to pick up Josh. McRoberts split the ball and scored under the basket to cause Chandler to be fouled.

"The Heat's second team is likely to make a lot of teams in the league jealous, they have shooters, breakers, and planners...... Even if the execution of tactics is not as fluid as that of the main team, it is able to play its own role on the field, which is much better than most teams when they are on the field, and only the one who gets the ball will attack. "Reggie. Miller didn't forget to start a wide range of ridicule when he praised the Heat's bench lineup, and he estimated that there are many teams in the league who can take the right seat.

The margin remained in double digits, and Rick. Carlisle had to change the main lineup in advance, and he didn't plan to let the team continue to be unable to defend and attack. Seeing this, Spoelstra also waved his hand and let the main players who had rested for nearly half a quarter play again.

However, the Mavericks were not among the main players who were substituted. Rondo, Carlisle still let Devin. Harris stayed on the court, even though the soon-to-be-32-year-old Harris no longer had the speed of his youth and could no longer rely on his breakthroughs.

The stubbornness of the Mavericks head coach ultimately made him biased against Rondo, and even when the team played well in the second half of the first quarter, he was still unwilling to let Rondo control the team's offense. Carlisle's tactical system, in which the team's offense is driven by Nowitzki and Ellis's individual offense, has been stabilized after experimentation last season. Rondo traded, and it directly disrupted his tactical arrangement.

Mavericks owner Cuban admires Rondo, but Carlisle doesn't, and he wants a functional point guard who shoots well......

Therefore, Rondo did not get much playing time under Carlisle, and in the games after his transfer to the Mavericks, although Rondo started every game, he played less than 28 minutes per game. Harris has played more minutes than he does.

Rondo, who was sitting on the bench, looked at the field in a daze, he really didn't understand, how could a guy like Harris who didn't shoot and lost his speed better than himself?!

The truth is simple, Harris's abilities are definitely not as good as Rajan's. Rondo ...... But Rick. Carlisle was not prejudiced against him, nothing more.

***

The Mavericks didn't play well in this game, and they looked very weak on the defensive end. And Rick. Carlisle's stubborn insistence on letting his core players lead the attack with their individual ability has gradually dulled them on the offensive end.

Nowitzki, no matter how good he is, is 36 years old. Bosh used his speed advantage to entangle his opponent throughout the court, not giving Nowitzki a chance to relax. By the end of the third quarter, the 'German tank' was already showing signs of fatigue and its shooting percentage continued to decline.

And Monta. Ellis, Addison's defense has become a pain in his eye, and the shadowy distractions make him irritable. Monta. Ellis's biggest weapon is his speed, but the speed of the yellow-skinned man in front of him is not slower than him at all, and the instantaneous power is even slightly better. This, coupled with Whiteside's ability to protect the basket on the inside, prevented Ellis from rushing into the box too often, and had to choose to shoot more from mid-range, which made him more affected by Addison's interference.

Towards the end of the third quarter, the difference between the two sides was widened to more than 15 points, and the Mavericks showed no signs of counterattacking, and the rhythm of the court was firmly controlled by the Heat.

"Devon. Harris doesn't know what it means to have a rhythm of attack and defense! All he can do on the field is blindly be dragged by his opponents...... Of course, Monta. Ellis is unlikely to understand such a thing as controlling the game, and it is estimated that he is still thinking about how to score more goals under Addison's defense...... "Reggie. Miller is about to lose his appetite for the Mavericks, "This team doesn't have a single ball-handler on the court, and if Coach Carlisle was going to use offensive firepower to build a win from the start, he would be stupid!" Don't forget who his opponent is, and don't forget that the Heat have one of the best controllers in the league at managing the rhythm of the court!

"The reason why the Mavericks were able to play well last season was because of the fact that there was a lot of stuff in the team. Calderon. The Spaniard was slow and old, but he was able to control the rhythm of his team's attack and not simply pass the ball after half-time. And now? I don't see Coach Carlisle having such a person on the pitch......"

"Of course you can't see it, Reggie, such a candidate is sitting on the Mavericks' bench in a daze." Kevin. Harlan echoed his partner, not without sarcasm, saying, "Let me see how long Rondo has been playing today...... Oh, 16 minutes, more than I thought......"

Rick. Carlisle stood straight on the sidelines, his usual serious look. He didn't want to believe that his system was being crumbled apart by the Heat, crumbling little by little.

The Mavericks' head coach wasn't unaware of what was wrong with his tactics, but the away boos and the sarcastic glances from the two guys in the live broadcast didn't want him to admit it. Carlisle is a coach who is not good at words and has a strong desire to control the team, and such a person will not easily admit his mistakes.

In particular, the mistake is the candidate he rejects and annoys the most......
