Chapter 344: A Change in the Direction of the Wind

The rhythm of the game in the second half of the second quarter was completely controlled by the Knicks, until the end of the half, the Heat did not play their due momentum and rhythm, the trend on the court was completely in the hands of the Knicks, and at the end of the half, the Knicks led the Heat by 15 points at 57:42. The fastest and most stable update dìng)

At halftime, Chen Jiyuan was still thinking about the previous game in his heart, recalling Wade's breakthrough, which was really sharp enough, Wade has a pretty good passing awareness and technique, as long as Wade is allowed to control the ball for a long time, Wade's assists are not a problem at all. Wade's body is quite explosive. Don't be afraid to physically collide with anyone, the first step is quick, and once you've gotten up the pace, it's hard to stop. However, it is precisely in this way that Chen Jiyuan wants to prevent Wade even more, in the first half, although the Knicks firmly controlled the shape of the game, but they still couldn't control Wade's score, or in other words, there was nothing to do with Wade. If a superstar finds his touch, it is not something that can be defended by one person, what is needed is for the whole team to defend in order to ensure the restriction of this superstar, Tony Allen has worked very hard and done a good job, and the responsibility for not succeeding in restricting Wade is not at all his responsibility.

At halftime, Chen Jiyuan saw what a head coach is, and he can be regarded as seeing Thibodeau's sterness. In the past, Xibodeau was quite good to Chen Jiyuan, giving Chen Jiyuan an illusion that Xibodeo was still amiable. However, during this halftime, Thibodeau's reprimand to everyone let Chen Jiyuan know how outrageous he was wrong before. If this Nima is an amiable person, then bin Laden is simply synonymous with kindness.

"What do you think, where do you stand on the court, think about the woman who played yesterday, think about the ** between the legs, you all give me attention to the basketball, put it on the defense, and pay attention to the opponent's movements. In the first half, you were defending like a kid, which made me wonder if you were really an NBA team, and you really didn't just come up from the Development League. Thibodeau spat in the locker room, scolding with his mouth wide open.

After that, he began to scold by name: "Rodney, do you want to fight, Dwayne's fast attack, why do you want to make a steal, you stupid, what is in your head, is it?" Ah, answer me. ”

"And you, Kevin, how many times have I said, don't always think about jumping the cap, do your job well, resist people, make the opponent's lower game unstable, the opponent won't be able to score the ball, whether it is a cap or not, as long as the ball is defended. No matter what way you use it, can you listen to what I'm saying, and is it because my ears are blocked by JB hair? Do you need me to take you to the doctor? ”

Chen Jiyuan was not spared. "Chen, as the leader of this team, you start to be lazy in defense. You give me more runs, don't use your strength on the **, use it on the court. More runs, more defenses, more blocks. After that, if you have less than one block per game, you will practice for 3 hours. I don't hear it. Thibodeau accused Chen Jiyuan mercilessly.

The whole team of the Knicks was scolded by Thibodeau, and it was the first time in their impression that such a harsh treatment was made, whether it was the old people who were in the Knicks before, or the newcomers who had just entered the NBA later, they had never encountered such a thing.

In fact, there is a reason why Thibodeau is doing this today, Thibodeau also has his own plans, if today's scolding players can listen to it, then Thibodeau's link to establish authority in the team will become a lot simpler, Thibodeau is certainly not a stupid person who can only scold people, otherwise how could he become the best head coach in his previous life, how could he lead the Bulls to achieve the best record in the league. Thibodeau did this just to establish his authority in the hearts of the players. In the previous team, Chen Jiyuan's authority was greater than that of Thomas, the head coach, and now Thibodeau wants to change this, a team, if you want to defend strongly, the overall defensive formation is essential, then, it is necessary to ensure that everyone in the team does their best to implement the manager's words, that is, it is necessary to improve the tactical execution of the players. Thibodeau wants to make the Knicks' players like the army, although it is not really as strict as the army, but at least there is one thing to the army, that is, the orders of the commander are forbidden. And Thibodeau was going to be the only commander.

Inside the locker room, Thibodeau was scolded for being a little too quiet. It's eerily quiet. However, this silence did not last long, and Chen Jiyuan was the first to react to Thibodeau's behavior.

"Don't worry. Tom, if you have less than one cap, I'll practice for a day. Chen Jiyuan directly expressed his attitude. It also showed its support for Thibodeau. In this way, Chen Jiyuan will no longer be the guy who talks about everything in the Knicks, and he will no longer be the guy who can guide the head coach's tactics. Instead, it became a tactic that could only be used to build on the manager's tactics. The changes in this are not small, to be honest, last season, when Thomas was here, Chen Jiyuan's guy was so cool. It's a really great feeling. Chen Jiyuan, who has experienced a season, is really reluctant to give up this right if he wants to give it up, and he is very reluctant to give up such a privilege in his heart. However, on the other hand, Chen Jiyuan knew that he didn't have such a strong team command ability at all. Tactics don't work, you still have to be a real manager. I also said it again and again in my heart that Chen Jiyuan would make such a decision. This is also very painful for Chen Jiyuan. However, for the sake of the championship, Chen Jiyuan still reluctantly cut his love.

Chen Jiyuan's behavior undoubtedly made Thibodeau's behavior basically half of the success. It also made Thibodeau's original goal basically half achieved.

The rest of the people also nodded one after another after Chen Jiyuan and said, "Understood, coach." ”

On Lefu's face, Chen Jiyuan saw that expression again, and he was completely unconvinced, Lefu's tenacity would make him and Xibodu stick to the end. No matter how Lefu will learn about Thibodeau's goodness, but for a period of time after Thibodeau said those excessive words, Lefu does not have this and that in his heart, there is just, I want to win you, I want you to make you unable to say such words. I want you to know that I won't be defeated by you lightly.

After everyone has made their attitudes clear. The halftime break is almost over. Thibodeau explained the tactics of the second half simply and clearly.

Lefou, you resist Haslem when defending, Chen Jiyuan, you pay more attention to Wade who bursts in, and after you come in, find a way to cover him for me. Starkey, no steals were allowed in the second half. You just have to resist Wade, don't worry about anything else, don't get fouled. If Wade, the Heat's main offensive point, is strangled to death, our defense will be successful. The opponent has no offensive serve, and the offensive efficiency is not comparable to the first half.

Finally, the second half of the game began. Players from both sides returned to the field.

The Knicks' tactics have changed, in fact, it is a change, but it is not to let Chen Jiyuan follow Haslem, after all, Haslem can always pull Chen Jiyuan near the three-point line, or Chen Jiyuan makes up for the defense, Wade passes the ball to Haslem, Haslem's score, these two are not good results. And now, when Chen Jiyuan is changed to stand closer to the basket, the speed of supplementing defense will be faster, and the effect of supplementing defense will be better.

The Heat's lineup in the second half was Haslem, Wade, Marion, Chalmers, and Marcus Banks. It's a small lineup again, speaking of which, the current Heat are more inclined to play a small lineup, which is also a change that Spoelstra made to the Heat. Riley's favourite mega combination is a centre-forward with a defender. The original big shark accompanies Peter Pan. Later Big Shark with The Flash. I have to say that O'Neill is such a shark, and he cooperates with the hero. The difference is that when he was with the Lakers, O'Neal was the boss, and when he was with the Heat, the Flash Wade was the boss.

In the face of this small lineup, the tactics that were arranged before will be changed a little. After all, today is the first game of the new season, and it is also Spoelstra's first game in charge, so there is no way to deal with it too much.

After coming up, Wade broke through with the ball again, facing Tony Allen's defense, although Wade needed to work hard, but he could still pass it by blocking and dismantling, but Tony Allen's visit was still a whole Wade was miserable.

Wade's ball, after it burst in, Chen Jiyuan never left the basket, so this ball, Chen Jiyuan was also watching Wade's movements, and was ready to give Wade a big hat at any time. Wade's right foot to the right, it seems that he is going to break through to the right, but, in fact, this right-to-right foot kicking force is very strong, and then, holding the ball with his hand, suddenly the direction of progress has become left, Chen Jiyuan was blinded by Wade's European step, and there was no reaction for a while.

Although I have long known that Wade's European step is a must, although it is not the first one, it is the first time to experience it, and it is the first time that Wade has been shaken by the European step. To be honest, with such a fast speed, there was no time to react at all, and Chen Jiyuan was not given time to react at all, and when Chen Jiyuan understood that Wade was using European steps, the referee had already signaled that the two-point goal had been scored. 57：44。

Wade naturally wouldn't willingly hand over the victory to the Knicks. Then, this third quarter of the game is the best and only time for Wade to start fighting back. When it comes to the fourth quarter, when the score is still behind, I will give up the game a little psychologically, and it will be difficult to find the momentum to win at that time. Therefore, this third quarter of the game is particularly important. If the score can be tied or close during this time, then the Heat can still play in the fourth quarter. Otherwise, the fourth quarter of the game loses the confidence and morale to win, and then there is basically no need to play.

The Heat want to win, and the Knicks don't want to lose. After Wade stepped one with Europe, Chen Jiyuan quickly wanted to single Haslem one, this ball, Chen Jiyuan reached the ball at a 45-degree angle on the left side, lowered the center of gravity, leaned back against Haslem, and began to hit it in, the Heat did not carry out the package clamp for the first time, Chen Jiyuan saw that no one came to the clip, and made a fierce force, after hitting it, he jumped to the front, and then directly jumped to the front, Haslem couldn't reach it at all, even if he didn't jump, he couldn't reach Haslem's height directly, Not to mention that Chen Jiyuan also jumped to the front of the basket. The ball swung around the rim for half a circle and eventually went into the hoop. 59:44。

This time the Heat attacked, after Chalmers dribbled the ball through the half, he did not hand the ball to Wade, but attacked himself, Chalmers took advantage of Haslem's blocking, and successfully appeared to enter the inside line, but Chen Jiyuan's rapid defense did not give Chalmers any chance to shoot. Chalmers's main means of supply in the offensive area is the three-point shot on the outside, after rushing into the inside line, Chalmers does not have too many effective ways to score, this ball, although Chalmers has no good opportunities, but Chalmers is still on his own, the left hand chair Chen Jiyuan, want to use the right hand to make a low-handed layup, unfortunately, how can Chen Jiyuan let Chalmers wish. Seeing the opportunity, Chen Jiyuan didn't care if he would be blown for a foul, he directly fanned the ball with his right hand, relying on the advantage of his arm span, coupled with Chen Jiyuan's super bounce, the ball just broke away from Chalmers's hand, and then touched Chen Jiyuan's hand. Chen Jiyuan was ruthless at all, and fanned the ball away violently with a "bang". However, when the ball flew to the bottom corner, it was picked up by Wade, who ran here first, and Wade picked up the ball and shot a three-point shot directly, and the ball went in. This ball Starkey didn't keep up with Wade's movements, mainly because Starkey already wanted to run fast and attack, but unfortunately after Chen Jiyuan fanned the ball away, no one picked up the ball. It's a bit embarrassing. 59:47。

In this third quarter of the game, the Heat really made a corresponding counterattack, Wade was the initiator of this counterattack, Wade scored 11 points in a row at the beginning of the third quarter. Hit two three-pointers. You must know that three-point shooting has always been an area that Wade is not good at, and Wade's Yuan Jili shot has always been very unstable, but today it is a feeling, hitting two three-pointers, and it also caused Chen Jiyuan's 2+1. Although Chen Jiyuan also slapped Wade with a hat, he also paid the corresponding price. Chen Jiyuan was fouled 4 times prematurely and had to take a break early. Although I listened to Ewing's Jianyì, tried to block more, and was not afraid of fouls or anything, it was really not so smooth at first. The problem of fouls will still plague Chen Jiyuan, but Chen Jiyuan will not hesitate. Ewing is right, what he is going through now is what all defensive players have experienced, except that the price he paid was the regular season, and the price others paid was nothing more than a college game or a high school game.

After Chen Jiyuan left the game, the Heat played another wave of 8:0 small ** under the leadership of Wade. In the end, fortunately, Sessions hit a three-pointer at the end, which was a temporary stabilizing, otherwise the Heat would have overtaken the score in the third quarter.

Now after the end of the third quarter. The Knicks also had a four-point lead. 90:86。 This point difference is nothing compared to the previous score difference of more than ten points. The four-point gap was chased back by the Heat in minutes.

In the second half of the third quarter, Wade's outburst once again became the reason why the Knicks were blown up, and Lefou's horizontal line moved relatively slowly, after all, Lefou's body is also relatively heavy now. Therefore, in the face of Wade's breakthrough, it is difficult for Lefu to make a threatening defense. And Tony Allen on the outside has done his best, but Wade's perimeter shooting feel is also very good today, and now in order to break through, it is still the league's first-rate sharp, no one can crotch Wade's breakthrough, Wade's first step is really fast. Although Tony Allen was able to stick to Wade and prevent Wade from comfortably receiving the ball and getting inside, Wade was always able to find good opportunities through pick-and-rolls. And Wade also has the upper hand in Tony Allen's single, especially today, Wade hit 4 three-pointers from the outside, which makes Tony Allen's defensive focus not know where to put it. No one on the inside could stop Wade from rushing in, and Wade on the outside felt like he was throwing away. It's an awkward and headache.

The Heat managed to narrow the score in the third quarter, but the Knicks weren't going to lose so easily.

After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Chen Jiyuan returned to the court, this time, the Knicks attacked first, Chen Jiyuan attacked, and in the third quarter of the game, Chen Jiyuan rested for a long time.

After receiving the ball, Chen Jiyuan once again proved his mid-range ability, although in the third quarter, he once lost his shooting touch and hit 5 irons in a row. But Chen Jiyuan's ball was still decisive and did not hesitate, knowing that Haslem could not cover himself, Chen Jiyuan had no pressure in his heart, and shot this large two-point shot very leisurely, and the ball hit steadily. 92:86。

In the fourth quarter, the game will enter the white-hot stage.
