Chapter 271: Hollins' Target
In the second half, the Heat's starting lineup remained unchanged, Collison scored with the ball, Kerr as a small forward, Deng as a small forward, Chen Lei as a big forward, and Jordan Jr. as a center.
When Wade did not play, the coach still chose to put Carter on the bench, after all, whether it is competitive or rotational habits, Kerr is more suitable to start the game than Carter.
The Nets also started the game, but they were obviously more aggressive than at this time of the opening game, one by one, like tigers from the mountains, trying to swallow the Heat alive and take the victory directly.
After all, leading the Heat by so many points, coupled with last season's sweep, gave them full confidence.
"As if it's not that difficult, what legendary Heat, what super rookie Apache, shit!" Nets rookie Bogdanovic said nonchalantly.
"That bullshit rookie you said had 22 points and 5 rebounds in the first half, do you feel like you're better than him?" Garnett glanced at Bogdanovic and said softly.
"This ...... That's not ......" Bogdanovic wanted to say something but really couldn't find a reason to fight back, indeed, the other person's table was indeed impeccable, and his side only occupied the advantage in the score, but did not suppress this guy.
Glancing at Garnett's back, Bogdanovic didn't know why this big brother, who was extremely enthusiastic in fighting with his opponent, would help Chen Lei speak.
The Nets took the lead in attacking, Delon stabbed the ball on the left side and dangled a backhand to Johnson, and singled Joe raised his hands and shook it before directly activating the breakaway mode.
The left side of his body shook and accelerated, stepping on a slippery arc to break into the penalty area, facing the defense of Rohr Deng, Johnson only paused for a moment, but the pace of progress did not change.
Joe. Johnson's individual offensive ability is already very strong, and he relies on his individual assault when the Nets team is still interested in crunching. So his breakthrough is getting sharper and sharper every year.
The knife is sharper the more you call. Johnson is the Nets' scoring butcher's knife. Although time flies and another year has passed, this guy is 33 years old, but in terms of individual ball attack, I dare not say that there is less, but the top ten or even the top five in the league must have a place for him.
"Phew! Don't go, thief! Chen Lei greeted Johnson with a low shout, but the two of them just looked at each other, and Chen Lei watched Johnson stride out and grab the ball with both hands and jump again, skip past him and throw the ball to the basket.
"Huh!" Basketball comes in.
The Heat 46:62 Nets, the difference between the two sides widened to 16 points at the beginning of the second half.
"It's very unpleasant!" Chen Lei picked up the basketball and slapped the ball, "Qiuqiu." Give some face, basket brother, chrysanthemum tightened! â
"......" basketball.
"......" basket.
Sent the ball to the Collison Heat, and after halftime, Collison threw the ball to Kerr, who broke through Chen Lei, who had just settled in the paint area in the middle, took the basketball and began to push Garnett decently.
Chen's hard-hitting offense was visually striking, and the guy was completely like a bulldozer arching towards the basket, and even Nets fans on the scene didn't doubt that he could easily knock Garnett away and send the ball to the basket.
"Hugh is presumptuous!" Bogdanovic was only two meters away from Chen Lei, and when he saw Chen Lei receiving the ball with both hands, he immediately pounced on him with a strong posture.
But after taking two steps, Bogdanovic found that Chen Lei's gaze turned to his side, and stared at him tightly with a smile on his face.
"Wait! He doesn't seem to be looking at himself! Bogdanovich suddenly thought. Seeing Chen Lei's hands grabbing the ball and pushing towards him, his face suddenly became rich.
By the time the basketball flew overhead, he had already made up his mind. He turned around and pushed back to the outside, but he was still a step too slow.
After getting rid of Bogdanovic, Luo Erdeng quickly ran to the bottom corner of the right side, took Chen Lei's pass and decisively pulled out his hand to push the ball out, and the basketball rolled and flew to the basket.
"Huh!" Shun lĂŹ was caught.
"It's really comfortable!" Luo Erdeng yelled.
Chen Lei frowned, "Bastard, can you keep a low profile?" â
"Low-key?" Luo Erdeng was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Chen Lei's evil smile, the smile on the corner of his mouth was even stronger: "Okay man, I will be low-key, please forgive me for being reckless just now." â
The Heat 49:62 Nets, the difference returned to 13 points.
The Nets counterattacked and missed the rebound, and the rebound was collected by Jordan Jr., and the Heat pushed forward at full speed again.
Compared with the athleticism of the two sides, the Heat is slightly better, even if the Heat have such a big fat man as Chen Lei, but youth is their advantage.
Chen Lei's speed is not slow, and he has been specially upgraded, and his speed in the fourth position is already above average.
Therefore, against the aging Garnett, Chen Lei is not lagging behind in speed.
As for the rest of the Heat's positions, they can run one game at a time, so the Heat's counterattack speed is like a whirlwind, and it comes to the frontcourt in the blink of an eye.
Collison threw the ball to Kerr with a direct push two meters from beyond the three-point line, who burst to the basket and split the ball to the right side of the ball.
With Bogranovic in full pursuit, Roldeng re-played the ball to Collisson in the middle.
"Huh!" Collison received the ball and stepped back from beyond the three-point line to jump, and Collison, who only scored two points in the first half, finally ushered in his second goal.
At 52:62, the Heat narrowed the margin to 10 points, just one step away from a single-digit margin of points.
In the second half, the Heat's tactics were executed very successfully, but their intentions were obvious and easy to be detected, Chen Lei repeatedly held the ball and attacked but did not shoot to his teammates, so that Hollins was aware of the Heat's tactics.
At 3 minutes and 29 seconds in the third quarter, the Heat 58:66 Nets, the Heat narrowed the gap to 8 points, and Hollins finally made a move.
"Inside passer?" Hollins frowned, "It's not very common in the league, but this fat man really has such abilities." â
Hollins signaled for the players on the court to call a timeout, and the tactical change strategy for the Heat allowed Johnson and Delon to strengthen the intensity of the breakthrough, and the league has long begun to study a set of countermeasures for Chen Lei's containment methods.
To deal with O'Neill, people choose to cut sharks, and for a fat man like Chen Lei, who is also huge in tonnage but has more accurate free throws, it is to consume his body.
"I don't believe that you can do such a thing when you are physically tired!" A wicked smile tugged at the corner of Hollins' mouth.
The Nets replaced Garnett with a more impactful backup power forward Telitovic, and Hollins wanted to bring Chen Lei physical confrontation attrition inside and outside at the same time, so that he could enter a period of exhaustion.
Wade is not on the Heat, the biggest threat is this fat man, although he is just a sophomore rookie, but Chen Lei's cousin has proven that he has such strength, so Hollins also attaches great importance to Chen Lei.
"No. 1 on the NBA's efficiency list? I don't believe you're a machine! As the referee blew the whistle for the players to return, Hollins looked at the Heat bench with his hands folded over his chest, and looked at the Heat No. 8 who had also returned to the court with two sips of drinks. (To be continued......)
