Chapter 146 - Fierce Confrontation

Just a back-and-forth offensive and defensive battle at the beginning, the atmosphere at the American Airlines Center has been rendered to the extreme.

The crowd gave their rookie list the warmest applause, and the Miami uniform group had given up the top pick in the Miami uniform. When Beasley chose this Chinese kid, many Miami fans even came to the American Airlines Center to resist, but many fans began to look forward to their performance as a leader, after all, Li Yao's performance in the NCAA Championship was too bright.

But after the start of the Beijing Olympics, with the deepening of the game, Li Yao led the Chinese men's basketball team to march forward, especially in the competition for the finals, Li Yao showed the world what is called a big heart, and finally killed the Dream Eight team with a strong three-point shot, thus leading the Chinese men's basketball team to win the gold medal of the Olympic Games, which also made Li Yao the new favorite of Miami.

Now that the preseason of the new season has begun, Li Yao contributed such a powerful dunk to them at the beginning, which made Miami fans love their list even more.

But compared to the excited audience, the people on the Pistons side seemed very calm, although Li Yao's dunk was wonderful, but which of these players in the Pistons had never seen a big scene? Without even changing his complexion, he continued to attack under the leadership of Billups.

The Pistons made up their minds today to fight the Heat's interior weakness, and every offense was to hoist the ball into the interior by McDyce and Rashid. Wallace as the starting point, and the trio on the outside is to run as much as possible to open up space for them, originally Li Yao also wanted to try to help defend it, but found that Billups, the old demon's running position was completely outside the three-point line, and did not give Li Yao half a chance at all, Li Yao knew very well how terrible the FMVP's three-point was, in order to avoid greater losses, Li Yao decisively gave up their inside line.

When it was the Heat's turn to attack, the Pistons were even slightly more simple in defense, strengthening the joint defense on the outside, and letting it go on the inside.

Li Yao's breakthrough was greatly restricted, but at this moment, Wade opened his hand to ask for the ball, Li Yao glanced at Wade in surprise, he saw the fighting spirit in Wade's eyes, and couldn't help laughing, it is estimated that Wade remembered the Eastern Conference Finals in the 05 and 06 seasons, and Li Yao threw the ball to Wade without hesitation.

The first time he received Li Yao's pass, Wade started, and it was a lightning step as soon as he came up, although the speed of Hamilton, the king of mid-pitching, was not slow, but it was a little stretched in front of the first step of lightning, Wade's strong explosive power left Hamilton behind him in an instant, Wade started, and the entire Pistons' outside defense began to shrink.

Seizing this time difference, Li Yao also started, slipped into the inside line with an acceleration, Wade still did not change his face when facing the pinch, his wrist shook lightly, and the basketball flew out instantly.

Billups secretly screamed bad as soon as he saw Wade's pass, and when he went to look for the figure of Li Yao beside him, he found that Li Yao had long since disappeared.

When he looked at the trajectory of the basketball again, he found that Li Yao was already flying in the air at this time.

Caught Wade's pass in the air, Li Yao was actually a little surprised, he didn't expect Wade's pass to be so comfortable, compared to the empty catch that Da Yao gave himself at the Olympics, Wade deserved to be taken by Pat at the beginning. Riley uses it to play point guard, and the passing skills of this hand can be seen. Li Yao also did not hesitate to face a forced slam dunk from McDeis, who wanted to make up for the block.

"Beep", as the whistle of the assistant referee near the baseline sounded, this beautiful empty catch finally ended up with 2+1.

After landing on the ground, Li Yao began to pretend to be forced again, putting his right hand to his ear to listen, and the audience accompanied the air defense siren raised again by DJ gave them the most enthusiastic cheers for this wonderful cooperation of the backcourt partner.

Scored free throws steadily, Li Yao's preseason debut score came to 5 points at the beginning, which also made the Chinese audience who watched the game broadcast in front of the TV bright, you must know that the results of Da Yao's debut of the first Chinese basketball player were not satisfactory, but their debut as a teenager captain was simply perfect, and the two powerful dunks made them look so cool.

Li Yao first high-fived Wade in the retreat and celebrated, and then whispered in Wade's ear, but Wade's eyes lit up.

When it was the Pistons' turn to attack again, they still played the inside line strongly, and they succeeded, which made Li Yao can't help but complain in his heart, this Nima is really a Piston, he will never play tricks with you, he always plays so reasonably, I believe that Mr. Zhang Reasonable will definitely be able to talk to them.

However, Li Yao has to admit that it is this steady and steady style that makes this piston strong, which is why they have been able to reach the Eastern Conference Finals for five consecutive years.

Offensive and defensive exchange again, this time Li Yao handed over the basketball to Wade just after the halfway line, he was able to find himself against Billups from the two attacks just now, in addition to this advantage in terms of speed, unless Li Yao has been forcing a breakthrough with lightning steps, it is difficult to break through Billups's defense, but Wade's side is different, now Wade is at his peak, neither his speed nor his body can be defended by Hamilton, That's why Li Yao let Wade become the Heat's current offensive initiation point when he retreated just now.

This time, Billups frowned, how could Billups, who has a very high basketball IQ, not see the Heat's plans, but he had no way, Hamilton's defense was good under the Pistons' system, but it depended on who was opposed, Wade, this guy They met in the Eastern Conference Finals twice in a row in the 05,06 season, and Hamilton couldn't limit Wade at all.

As soon as the ball was passed out here, Li Yao began to direct his teammates to start running, trying to open up space for Wade as much as possible.

However, the Pistons, on their side, were not nervous, and under the command of Billups, they made an orderly defensive transition.

When he saw the Pistons' change of formation, Li Yao scolded in his heart, Nima, although his teammates ran accurately according to his instructions, but when he looked closely, except for Wade, who held the ball, the offensive ability of his three teammates in positional warfare really made him no longer in the mood to complain.

But fortunately, the space has also been opened up a little, although it is not as spacious as Li Yao thought in his heart, but it is enough for Wade.

Wade started again, like a bolt of lightning, across the court.

By the time the Pistons reacted inside, Wade was already flying in the air and directly blocked McDyce.

Of course, Wade didn't play 2+1 this time, because McDyce gave up the idea of blocking when he saw Wade's posture, because he knew that he had already taken a foul at the beginning, and if he fouled again, he would be troubled by the number of fouls at the beginning, which is the terrible thing about the Pistons, they are always so calculating.

Let Wade break through twice in a row, Li Yao smiled slightly on the side, do you Pistons still dare to give me not to shrink the defense?

After the Pistons successfully hit the inside again, Li Yao was no longer in the mood to complain about their inside.

It is still Wade's offensive with the ball, and the threat brought by two consecutive successes has made the Pistons dare not continue to let the Flashes continue, you must know that if Wade's lethality continues, Wade's lethality will not be able to keep his two interior lines or will be replaced in less than 5 minutes because of foul trouble.

Billups didn't hesitate to command his teammates to start shrinking the defense as a way to limit Wade's breakout.

At this time, Wade looked at Li Yao, and asked in his eyes, but Li Yao shook his head slightly, the time is not yet, and the current Pistons defense seems to have shrunk, but it still maintains the elasticity of the outside defense.

Wade also knew this, taking advantage of the emptiness of a defensive exchange, plunged into the Pistons' interior again, and jumped again.

This time Rashid. Wallace can't stand this grumpy guy, Nima, they're the Pistons, one of the best defensive teams in the league, how can you let them dunk in their restricted area all the time like in your own backyard? Rashid. Wallace flew towards Wade, but Wade saw this and secretly screamed: Nice, in and Rashid. The moment Wallace made physical contact, he collected the ball, leaned slightly towards Rashid, and when the referee's whistle blew, Wade threw the basketball in his arms to the basket.

Wade also made Li Yao realize what it means to be a god, and when he completely lost his vision and body control, Wade was able to throw this ball in, this Nima is really powerful.

Playing 2+1 again, Li Yao and Wade both looked at each other and smiled, this problem was thrown to your pistons, in the face of such Wade, can you clip the defense?

However, after being beaten again, Li Yao's heart felt a twitch, he had never seen his own inside line being pressed to the ground like this since his rebirth and had no power to fight back.

But now is not the time to think about this, when Wade wants to break through with the ball again, the Pistons have to send Prince Prince Jr. to help defend Wade, they choose to stop as much as possible, after all, Marion is not a big threat in the positional offense, so they choose to half-abandon Marion.

But will this limit the Heat's offense? Li Yao told them that this was unrealistic.

Li Yao started instantly, and Marion came to a cross cover, Billups was instantly blocked by Marion, Wade's pass also followed, and Li Yao took a step outside the three-point line without hesitation.

With a "bang", the three points fell steadily into the basket, and the Heat's tactics this time were successful.
