Chapter 20: The Whirlwind
In the latest edition of the rookie rankings, Beasley slipped to second place. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info This is because in the last game against the Bobcats he played badly.
Rose rose to No. 1 and overpowered Mayo in the Bulls vs. Grizzlies game on Nov. 1, scoring 26 points and diarring up eight assists to lead the team to victory. Mayo, on the other hand, did not play well and scored only 10 points.
After the first four games, Rose averaged 18.3 points and 4.6 assists per game, and it looks like the Bulls have a good revival.
Beasley played one game less, and the stats were a little more luxurious - 19.7 points, 7.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists, which has reached the standard of an All-Star. Despite their sluggish performances, Heat fans understand that their expectations of Wade and Beasley are rising.
Although he lost face on Rose, he still averaged 15 points per game and has vaguely shown the potential of a top scorer.
There have been no dark horses for other rookies this year so far, and the top three are firmly controlled by these three.
In the regular season standings, the Heat are fifth in the East with two wins and one loss, the Toronto Raptors and Detroit Pistons are tied for first place, and the defending champion Celtics are close behind.
In the West, the Los Angeles Lakers, New Orleans Hornets and Utah Jazz troika are neck and neck, and all three teams are undefeated.
As night falls, the seats in the American Airlines arena look a little empty, and Miami is heavily congested, so fans tend to arrive late and leave early.
At this time, the players of both teams are shooting and warming up on the court.
It took just a year for the Philadelphia 76ers to complete the rebuild, and they brought Captain Brand at the helm for a post-answer revival.
Their lineup is luxurious: Brand and Haitian Samuel Delham Potter prop up the interior, the small forward position is locked by second-year rising star Thaddeus Young, and the guard line is made up of "Little AI" Iguodala and Andre Miller.
On paper, the 76ers are indeed much better than the Heat, but their weakness is also obvious - shooting ability.
Their shooting ability ranks at the bottom of the league, especially the three-point shot, so the Heat have done a lot of targeted defense for this, and one of the most important is to shrink the inside.
After the tedious appearance ceremony, the game officially began.
Heat starters: Chalmers, Wade, Beasley, Marion, Blount.
76ers starters: Miller, Iguodala, Thaddeus Young, Brand, Dareham Porter.
Backbite!
The referee's whistle blew, and Dylam Porter jumped to beat Blunt, without any pressure, and the 76ers' height advantage was too obvious.
In the first round, the 76ers still put the ball in the hands of Brand, the team's No. 1 offensive point, and his low post single footwork was extremely good, and his mid-range jumper was equally accurate.
Defending him is Marion, the tonnage gap between the two is too big, Brand is simply a crushing style of play, he relies on Marion to turn left and turn right and finally pick the basket to win, that pair of long arms make it easy for him to make these moves.
0 to 2.
The Heat attacked, Wade took the ball first, and he hit a jumper with Blunt's pick-and-roll.
2 to 2.
The 76ers offense, or Brand low-post singles, this time Chalmers went up to the clip, Brand immediately returned to Miller outside the three-point line, who received the ball and got an open three-point opportunity, but he didn't look at the basket at all, this guy can't shoot when he gets out of the three-point line, which is a strange flower in the history of guards.
What's even more bizarre is that this guy can score three or forty points in a game just by playing a low back!
He broke through to the free throw line with the ball and threw a throw, but unfortunately missed.
Beasley took the backcourt rebound, he passed to Wade, who took the ball and launched a fast break, the Flash sprinted straight and appeared inside the opponent's three-point line in the blink of an eye, and the only one for the 76ers to follow was Iguodala.
But Iguodala can only eat exhaust gas, and he hasn't run into the three-point line when Wade completes the dunk!
4-2, the Heat took the lead.
In the next round, the two sides began to compete defensively, and the Heat insisted on shrinking the interior, and their rotation defense was fast, forcing the 76ers to shoot three-pointers from the perimeter. may also be forced to be in a hurry, Iguodala threw three and scored one, which is not too much of a loss.
The 76ers are strong defensively, and they don't play dirty little tricks like the Pistons, but simply interfere with you with their physical prowess.
Iguodala single-handedly defended Wade on the outside, and two big mountains of Brand and Dareham Porter waited on the inside, and Wade's presence on the court gradually declined.
Beasley and Thaddeus Young are evenly matched, they are similar in height, and Thaddeus Young is slightly better in terms of physical fitness, but he is no match for Beasley compared to his versatility.
Beasley played him three so far in the first quarter, including a two-and-one, and scored seven points.
Thaddeus Young was also under pressure on the offensive end, as he grabbed back-to-back rebounds and rebounded on Beasley's head.
With three minutes left in the first quarter, the score was 18-17 and the Heat led by just one point.
This round is the Heat ball possession, Chalmers passes to Wade on the right side in the middle, and Iguodala begins to get close outside the three-point line, this posture seems to be devouring Wade alive!
The Heat's positioning was spread out, with Marion and Blunt deep on either side of the basket, Chalmers at 45 degrees on the other side, and Beasley in the bottom left corner.
Wade held the ball for a few seconds before he started it, and his first move was still quick, but Iguodala was not slow to catch up.
If he can't eat alone, Wade beckoned Blount to come out to block and dismantle, and he is the best at using this kind of team to block and dismantle a stop-and-go jump shot, which can't go up in terms of shooting percentage, but it's hard to prevent.
This time he still wanted to follow this routine, but he didn't expect Hellam Porter to come directly to the outside, and he happened to be caught by the 76ers' triangle.
Chalmers went to answer, but was entangled by Miller, and at this time Thaddeus Young was actually distracted, he probably thought that Wade was going to miss the ball nine times out of ten, so his brain relaxed for two seconds.
Beasley spotted the opportunity, so he sneaked to the basket and watched Wade point to the sky.
Wade was struggling with what to do at the moment, and just in time to see Beasley's gesture, he quickly understood and threw the ball to the basket with his right arm.
The 76ers' box was unguarded, and Beasley jumped high, caught the ball with his left hand, put his right hand on the back of his head, and then spun around in the air before smashing the ball into the frame!
"Oh my God! What kind of dunk is this? ”
"Three hundred and sixty degrees, or even five hundred and forty degrees, wow, this is terrible!"
"Look at his head, it looks like it's all flat!"
"This is the most slick dunk I've ever seen in my career! Carter unleashes the aesthetic of violence, and this dunk deduces the ultimate ethereal beauty! ”
"This shot is going to be the best dunk of the year, definitely!"
"I'll go, this is our Heat's rookie? That's an exaggeration, isn't it? ”
"I feel like this dunk is like a whirlwind, it's so handsome!"
……
The American Airlines Arena exploded, and Beasley's dunk was played on the big screen - a leisurely walk before the dunk, the elegant beauty of the dunk, and his disdainful eyes after the dunk!
How many people can be crazy about him with this ball?
"Whirlwind!"
"Whirlwind!"
"Whirlwind!"
……
Fans probably thought the name Whirlwind Dunk was too apt, so the American Airlines arena began to shout Whirlwind, which was shouting Beasley, they already had a Flash, and now it looks like there is one more Whirlwind!
