The Heat eliminated the Hornets with a score of 4-0, although many people in the outside world did not expect it, but in the Heat team, everyone felt reasonable.

In this series, Lin Hao averaged 16 points and 4.5 steals per game.

It doesn't seem very good this way, but Lin Hao's average playing time is only 23 minutes per game, and his efficiency value is the highest in the team.

What's more, Lin Hao's presence has a goal difference of +15 points, which says it all.

At this time, the Heat's next opponent will be decided between the Pacers and the Raptors, and now the score is 2-2, and it is estimated that it will be 7 games.

This gave the Heat a full week to adjust and further grind.

The day after he returned to Miami, Eric summoned everyone to the arena.

"I'm very satisfied with the performance of everyone in the first round." Eric then summed up and praised.

"But that's just the first step, and then we have a second round, a division final, and even a grand final." Eric yelled.

When Eric spoke of the Finals, most of the players' eyes twinkled.

Yes, most of the team now believes that they can beat the Cavaliers, who have three champions and the first man in the current team, James.

"I know what you're thinking, but I'm going to tell you all serious, this year we have only one goal, and that's to win the championship." Eric said in a sonorous voice.

When Eric said the goal of the championship, everyone except Lin Hao and Wade was dumbfounded.

"If you believe in me, believe in this team, believe in yourself, the 2016 championship is in front of you, within reach." Eric said with his hands behind his back, unquestionably.

Lin Hao also secretly praised Eric, this is the difference between a good coach and an ordinary coach.

Aside from the on-the-spot tactical change of strain, the ability to mobilize and motivate the players outside of this game alone is not of the same level.

Every great coach is a great speaker. That's true.

"However, we can't lift the championship trophy yet." Eric continued.

'So, we need new tactics and from today until the moment before we win the title, we won't have it easy.'

"In the heavy playoffs, all the extra breaks, we have to train and train again, can we do that?" Eric scanned the crowd and yelled.

"Yes!" Everyone, even Wade, the boss, responded loudly.

"OK, now let's start training new tactics." Eric said.

"Before, on the offensive end, we practiced Lin Hao's offensive system of not holding the ball, or the tactic of putting Lin Hao on the inside."

"And now, what we have to train is the defensive tactics with Lin Hao as the core of the defense." Eric set his eyes on Lin Hao.

Everyone also looked at Lin Hao, and even Lin Hao himself was stunned, not knowing what Eric wanted to do.

"Lin Hao's defensive ability is obvious to everyone, and everyone knows it in their hearts." Eric ignored the crowd.

"There are three main defensive strategies." Eric walked over to the Tactics Board.

"The first misplaced defense." Eric picks up the magnet.

"When defending, the point guard and Lin Hao switched defenses in advance, so that Lin Hao was defending the opponent's point guard."

"And Lin Hao, you have to use your body, arm span, wrap around the other party, restrict the other party, and even steal the other party." Team Eric looked at Lin Hao and said.

I have to say that Eric's professional eye is really outstanding.

In the game against the Hornets, in the first game, Lin Hao's initiative to press the defense was immediately noticed by Eric.

And in the past few days of the game, Eric and the tactical team have explored a suitable defensive tactical system.

"And the rest of the people, try to form the top pressure, try to stand in front of or on the side of the defender, don't let the opponent's people easily catch the ball, give Lin Hao enough time, and rely on personal strength to steal."

"Lin Hao at this time, we must also pay attention to the fact that we must be flexible, not only to take the initiative, but also not to attack blindly, blindly trying to steal can easily cause mistakes." Eric reminded.

"I will." Lin Hao nodded and said.

"If Dragic, Wade, and Lin Hao are on the court at the same time, once Lin Hao goes to the outside to defend, the two of you will allocate them according to the strength of the opposing players."

"I see." Wade said lightly.

"No problem." Dragic said.

In fact, Dragic and Wade are about the same height, and Wade is slightly better in defensive ability.

It's more that the defensive styles of the two are different, and Dragic is more steady, not out of position, and rarely steals.

Wade, on the other hand, can be both steady and aggressive.

"The second defensive tactic is to pile up defense on the strong side." Eric fiddled with the magnet again.

"The strong side is stacked defensively, mainly the teams with strong defensive projection ability."

"Now in the league, small-ball tactics are prevalent, and many teams, to a greater or lesser extent, are influenced by the Warriors."

"Even the Cavaliers have a small-ball lineup." Eric explained.

"Since there is a strong side piling up, then there is a weak side defense."

"And the task of putting two on the weak side falls on you, Lin Hao." Eric once again set his eyes on Lin Hao.

Lin Hao also pricked up his ears and listened intently to Eric's words.

Lin Hao had heard of this strong side accumulation defense before, but he had never seen a team that would really implement this tactic.

Because of this defensive tactic, the defensive requirements for the weak side are too high.

No coach would really be so bold as to let a player on the outside, one defense and two defenses.

But Lin Hao, I didn't expect Eric to bring it up when the playoffs were in full swing and put the trust in his own hands.

There is no doubt that once it works, even against the Warriors, who now have the league's highest-configuration small-ball lineup, they will be able to snuff out most of the opponent's firepower.

"This strong-side accumulation tactic, it is difficult to explain to you specifically, because depending on the opponent, there are too many refinements required."

"Wait a minute, this tactic, I'll wait a minute, first practice the basic formation of three positions."

"Specifically, when we know the specific opponent, our tactical team, and then refine each of you."

"Lin Hao, your task is to focus on the middle, you have to be familiar with the information and offensive habits of all the opponent's players."

"We're definitely going to face the Cavaliers when it's time for the Eastern Conference Finals, and you've got to start watching the footage these days, and we've got you sorted it out, so you can bring it back and let Bob show it to you." Eric said to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao also felt the unprecedented pressure at this time, and it is no exaggeration to say that Lin Hao is the whole team and hopes to win the championship.
