"Keep an eye on him, he's not James, can't you even beat a role player." Terry Stotts was a little louder.

He wants to stimulate his subordinates, their goal is to become the best, James has no truce, they have to be locked up, let alone Zhang Xiaotian.

The pioneers were ashamed, and several of them showed a strong fighting spirit.

After coming up, the Trail Blazers attacked the interior line very rationally, and they were instantly full of confidence after they succeeded.

But only 10 seconds later, Zhang Xiaotian scored inside and caused Robin Lopez to foul.

Batum had already defended himself very well, but when the two made physical contact, Zhang Xiaotian squeezed in with a short body and squeezed in.

The double explosion of speed and power is simply unguardable for the other party.

Do you want to pinch the attack, you have to pinch the players outside the Big Three, the Trail Blazers players are still a little unacceptable.

But the situation is stronger than people, and under the supervision of the head coach, they can only be shameless.

On the offensive end, in addition to the main attack on the inside, it was Batum's unconvinced counterattack.

As for Lillard, he was a little less resolute at this time.

He actually played very well in the first three quarters, but in the fourth quarter, when the old guy of the Heat suddenly made a force, he was forced to make mistakes twice, and he had some concerns when he came up again.

It is also the reason for the tactical arrangement, the Heat's interior defense has obvious weaknesses, and the Trail Blazers must of course play.

After Batum was strong under Zhang Xiaotian's defense, the knights advanced quickly.

Wade went to the front court to directly share the ball, and after Zhang Xiaotian scored in the fourth quarter, he was extraordinarily strong, and Wade subconsciously passed the ball over at this time.

Zhang Xiaotian received the ball and squeezed it hard again, which was extremely tough.

This time, the Trail Blazers couldn't help but pinch it, but he didn't expect him to put the ball outside.

Bosh, who was a little slower, caught the ball and hit a three-point shot, and the Trail Blazers and others suddenly sank.

The Heat led by four points in a bang, and the two sides were deadlocked today, but the Trail Blazers held the lead most of the time, which is their confidence.

In the final quarter, when they had already entered the second half of the quarter, the Heat suddenly became stronger, which made them a little panicked.

Batum's heart was even more turbulent, "Impossible, he can't be so strong." ”

Although he only had a brief confrontation last season, Batum had heard about Zhang Xiaotian's situation in Parker's mouth, and he couldn't lose.

In fact, what he didn't know was that Parker didn't fully understand Zhang Xiaotian, and with Zhang Xiaotian's growth this year, it was normal for him to be suppressed now.

When the Trail Blazers attacked, Batum got another chance to hold the ball.

He gritted his teeth, took a cross-step, lunged to the left, and then threw the ball with his long arms held high in the air.

With his height and arm span to make this movement, it is difficult for others to interfere with him, and Zhang Xiaotian is the same.

Just to get rid of the defense completely, Batum gave almost everything, and when he shot, he felt that his body was weak, and the ball was short.

Terry Stottes couldn't help but shout on the sidelines, and Batum could only let go of his reluctance and run back quickly to get ready for defense.

The clock is in the final five minutes, and it's time to decide the outcome of the game.

Because Bosh was more active on the offensive end before, after he hit a three-pointer, the Trail Blazers' defense was a bit of a loss.

Unlike the Heat, the Trail Blazers are not the same players who lead the offense and defense, and Zhang Xiaotian will certainly seize the opportunity, and since the opponent has scruples about his passing, he will be tough again.

He burst into the flank and flew to the point of Batum, then took a step up to hit the board.

The Trail Blazers had to pause their defensive and offensive tactics again, and after coming up, their perimeter players became more cautious, and Aldridge became an absolute mainstay on the court.

When it comes to efficiency, Aldridge is not the team's highest.

But with the ball alone, he is indeed the most sure of the Trail Blazers.

The first time Aldridge still hit, but the second time he hit the iron again.

Aldridge does have a good shot that will be difficult for the Heat to stop with his height, but he's not the best option in crunch time.

Because he is mainly shooting, his shooting percentage is not high on the inside under tight defense, and his ability to respond is only average.

On the Heat side, Zhang Xiaotian and Wade played a good match, and the latter slipped to the bottom line to catch the ball and hit a backhand layup.

Compared to the Trail Blazers, the Heat have a better success rate.

At 2:04, when Bosh hit a three-pointer from the outside again, the Trail Blazers' confidence in winning the game also dissipated.

Then Zhang Xiaotian also hit three points, and the balance of victory and defeat has completely fallen to the Heat.

Batum and Lillard hit back-to-back three-pointers in the final minute, but under the Heat's targeted defense, they all ended in iron.

110:102, when James was resting, relying on Bosh's double-double and Zhang Xiaotian's 20+5+5 performance, the Heat continued to win in a row.

The pride task of the champion in Zhang Xiaotian's system is only the last time to be completed.

Compared with Bosh, who has proven himself, Zhang Xiaotian has obviously received more attention.

Some teams are even looking for a trade because the contract he got is only average, and if this kind of indication is more than a few times, his value will definitely be raised.

However, the Heat are aiming for a championship, and they don't care about Zhang Xiaotian's problems every summer for the time being.

Even if you want to supplement the lineup, you won't send Zhang Xiaotian, a cost-effective player.

Zhang Xiaotian's sneaker contract expires this season, and the other party naturally wants to renew the contract, preferably for life.

And several big brands in Europe and the United States also contacted Eddie and were willing to give him some higher treatment.

Eddie also knows a little about entrepreneurship, but he prefers to sign with big brands.

Commissions and connections for big brands are one thing, and Eddie doesn't think it's a good idea for Zhang Xiaotian to invest in a brand.

However, this obviously doesn't know that Yang Feiyu is already paving the way for their own brands, and Zhang Xiaotian will definitely not sign with those big brands in the next few seasons.

If Zhang Xiaotian reaches the level of a top all-star in the future, he may consider it, provided that the brand he invests in is tepid, otherwise it is better to make money directly.

There is a huge market on the other side of the ocean, and if the investment can be successful, it is much more beneficial than endorsing others.

Zhang Xiaotian only briefly understood the affairs of the outside world, and his energy was still focused on basketball.

The last stop of the Western Expedition is the Nuggets, and all the players who were unwell with the Heat some time ago have also returned.

They won't let go of a single victory, whether it's an opponent in the East or the West.

However, after James comes back, Zhang Xiaotian will definitely be able to play a supporting role.

And the Nuggets, the opponent, this season has not started well, and they also need exciting wins, but winning this kind of thing requires strength.

Wonderful!
