Chapter 182: Gasol Jr.'s Defense

Wade immediately used a quick first step to shake off Li Shihao's defensive entanglement, and was about to enter the paint area to find an offensive opportunity and play an offense, but found that in the Timberwolves' restricted area, Marc Gasol was waiting for him, and his body was like a hill under the basket, giving people extremely heavy pressure.

Dwyanwade's eyes narrowed slightly, and a slightly terrifying gaze shot out of his eyes, he changed his attention and planned to have an offensive cooperation with Michael Beasley, at this time, an offensive cooperation with Michael Beasley was the best choice!

Dwyane Wade knows the strength of his younger brother very well, and this season the Heat can slightly occupy a place in the middle of the East, in addition to Wade's own strong strength, Michael Beasley also has a lot of credit.

Although the second-year rookie selected by the Heat in '08 has all kinds of problems, such as not taking training seriously, being late, drinking too much, etc., he seems to have been contaminated with a lot of bad problems that players should not be contaminated.

But I have to admit that Michael Beasley has done a lot for the Heat on the offensive end this season, and this kid is a powerful weapon in the regular season, living up to his status as the top spot in '08.

Michael Beasley has outstanding physical fitness and athleticism, can fight on the inside, coupled with good outside shooting, and allows him to score almost anywhere on the court, although he plays a little bit uniquely and has no sense of passing, but when the team has a team leader like Wade who is a father and mother, Michael Beasley is undoubtedly very comfortable.

At the very least, Wade's passing awareness is extremely good, and he is not weak compared to some of the best point guards in the league, and as long as Michael Beasley finds the right time to attack, Dwyane Wade, who is always on the court, will hand the ball to him.

This kind of treatment is undoubtedly the embodiment of the boss's great trust in the rookie!

Marc Gasol seems to have taken notice of Wade's thoughts. He noticed a quiet eye contact between Dwyane Wade and Michael Beasley on the side, and then Dwyanwade didn't hesitate to get the ball inside.

Marc Gasol frowned, and immediately noticed that something was wrong, Miami seemed to want to muddy the waters, and then take advantage of the chaos to get an offensive opportunity.

There are too many such examples. Marc Gasol was the first to notice this, and it had to do with his keen sense of smell on the defensive end.

Gasol Jr., like his older brother Pau Gasol, is a natural good material on the inside, and his all-around skills give them plenty of room to turn over the sea on the inside.

This season, the Timberwolves' outstanding record also attracted the attention of Pau Gasol, who was in the Los Angeles Lakers after seeing his brother's outstanding performance, and often called his younger brother Gasol Jr. late at night after watching the Timberwolves' game. Encourage your younger brother.

Pau Gasol has an excellent temperament and is one of the rare good-tempered players in the league. He also cares about his family, and he has always attached great importance to the relationship between the three Gasol brothers, when Mark Jr. and he swapped owners between the Grizzlies and the Lakers, Pau Gasol directly gave his mansion in Memphis to his younger brother, so that Gasol Jr., who was a second-round pick contract at the time, waived a large amount of accommodation expenses.

This season, Marc Gasol has improved a lot, and the Timberwolves were able to amaze after an early season wave. Continue to maintain the amazing momentum, all the way to the eighth position in the West. It has a lot to do with the strength progress of Gasol Jr.

Gasol gave his younger brother Marc Gasol a lot of advice, which allowed Marc Gasol to avoid a lot of detours this season.

The most obvious point is that Marc Gasol has metamorphosed on the defensive end!

Gasol Jr.'s defensive awareness is very good, originally Gasol Jr. had a keen awareness on the defensive end, and after some experience from Pau Gasol, Gasol Jr. was like a shriveled sponge absorbing enough water. It was enriched for the first time.

Marc Gasol raised his arms high to block Dwyanwade's view from making any form of passing, blocking all passing options near Dwyanwade while his tall and majestic body was pressed in front of Dwyanwade. Blocked Dwyane Wade's line of sight, leaving the basket without a trace of Dwyane Wade's sight.

Sure enough, Dwyane Wade changed his offensive approach, and the rest of the Miami Heat moved.

Marc Gasol noticed that Michael Beasley was the first to break away from Kevin Love's defense, and a quick run to the perimeter, as if waiting for something.

Marc Gasol was shocked, this is going to be a circle cut tactic?

Marc Gasol's heart jumped suddenly, and a strong premonition flashed, and the subconscious in his heart told him that this time the prediction was not wrong, and it was very likely to be correct!

Little Gasol saw the figure of Li Shihao in his sight, and he hurriedly gave Li Shihao a covert look, asking him to pay attention to Michael Beasley's movements, and he reminded Li Shihao to pass through the cracks and find the best time to cut in.

After Li Shihao got Marc Gasol's eyes, he also understood the meaning of the hint given by Gasol Jr., although he was a little hesitant in his heart, he trusted Marc Gasol and did it as soon as possible.

Li Shihao for the first time, through the gap, followed and defended Dwyanwade, just a short step in the penalty area, Li Shihao crossed the blocking of the human wall and directly collided with Dwyanwade's offensive line.

Marc Gasol did not lag behind, and at the same time moved horizontally in front of Dwyanwade, blocking Dwyanwade's retreat and not giving him a chance to turn back.

Dwyane Wade had no other choice, he could only attack on his own, all the nearby passing routes were completely cut off, the ball could not be passed, Michael Beasley, who was originally going to support, saw that the limelight was not right, and slipped out as soon as possible, without giving Dwyanwade any substantial help.

Dwyanwade gritted his teeth fiercely, and with a ruthless heart, he directly moved a quick sideways step, jumped with his right foot, and tried to make a layup with the ball in both hands.

However, Mark Gasol's long arms firmly covered Dwyane Wade's offensive vision, and when Wade, who was 193 cm tall, jumped up, he was defended by Mark Gasol and could not see the offensive vision, which was terrible!

Marc Gasol blocked Dwyanewade's shooting vision for the first time, and the rest depends on Dwyane's offensive touch.

The arrow is ready to fly, and it has to be sent!

Wade gritted his teeth and threw the basketball in his hand, and the hand shape still maintained the memory hand shape of the shot at the moment of shooting, and with the last trace of muscle memory, he threw the basketball out.

The basketball ended up bouncing twice on the hoop and popping out of the hoop and the ball didn't go in! (To be continued.) )
