Chapter 746: The Veteran's Spring

Van Gundy asked Clung Butler to break through a little more at the break in the first quarter, which is also to prepare for Clung Butler's wider play, Van Gundy After seeing Clung Butler's combat effectiveness, he not only hopes that Clung Butler can shoot and shoot from standing, he also hopes that Clung Butler can break through and attack with his back, his outlook for Clung Butler is comprehensive, so Van Gundy asked Clung Butler to break through a little more.

When Kaloon Butler arrived at the Heat's halfcourt, he remembered what Van Gundy said, and when he received the basketball in the process of running the ground, he went directly to the Heat's three-second zone!

Kalombatele's physical characteristics are that he is taller, his feet are more flexible, and his shooting is steady!

Because Kalombbutler's footwork is flexible rather than fast, he has a certain ability to break through, but it is natural to go fast or have space for layups! When there is no space, let Crumon Butler rush in so hard, he still can't rush down.

And there is a guy in the Heat's interior line who is enough to resist any savage breakthrough, just look at the result of Kaloon Butler's brave breakthrough, which is to crash into the body of Haslem who jumped over.

Haslem was smart enough to take the position first, and then wait for Kaloon Butler to come over, if it was someone else, he would have avoided Haslem or simply scored on Haslem's head, but Kaloon Butler was a newbie to break through, and he just didn't stop his footsteps and crashed into Haslem's body.

Haslem fell to the ground with a loud scream, and fell to the ground. The referee immediately gave Kaloon Butler a foul!

Kalombartler reluctantly glanced at the basketball in his hand, and then handed the basketball to the referee.

Although Kaloon Butler feels wronged, he really doesn't have the ability to deal with this Haslem!

Haslem's positional sense and defensive ability are actually very good. It's just that he is just a little bit worse physically, and in the end he can only use cheat fouls and fake falls to complete the defense, if Haslem is stronger physically and taller, he can finish the opponent's offense in another way and become an excellent defender.

At this point, the potential Heat has flipped a bit around. It starts with three points, and then there's a successful defense, as the situation changes. The Heat really started to threaten, and after Wade dribbled to the Pelicans' position, he still played his own set of breakthrough shots, but this time the object of his distribution became James Jones, and James Jones was completely a marginal figure in the Heat. He got the basketball and made a quick pass to Lewis who pulled it out.

Henson didn't follow Lewis at all. Then I saw Lewis's old gun shot.

"Bang!"

Another straight arc and sharp three-pointer suddenly turned the score into 35-31, and the Pelicans lost 6 points in less than a minute, and only led the opponent.

The Heat came back and made two three-pointers in a row, and the two three-pointers sounded like nothing. But on the scoreboard, that's a real 6 points, that's a catch-up all at once.

Brand glanced at the scoreboard. ran towards the Heat's half, and at this time the Pelicans' players also ran towards the Heat's half with the ball, and the Heat made two consecutive three-pointers, and the potential upward momentum on the Pelicans' side was suppressed a little.

When he came back to the Heat's position to attack, it was a little urgent, not as free as just now, Oladipo handed the basketball to Ronnie Brewer at halftime, and Ronnie Brewer immediately protected the basketball with his body, slowly moving and watching the court.

At this time, Caron Butler has begun to run quickly, and now in the Pelicans' bench lineup, Caron Butler is the well-deserved No. 1 scorer, and Ronnie Brewer naturally looks for Caron Butler first.

Caron Butler was cheated by Haslem for a foul, and he also restrained his style of play, and when he came over, he started to run along the three-point line, which was easier for Caron Butler to do than to break through the shot.

ran around the three-point line for most of the time, Ronny Brewer's ball finally reached the hands of Caron Butler, and Caron Butler took the ball and saw that in front of him was still the James Jones, who was much shorter than himself, so that Caron Butler directly shot three points.

Since the opponent attacked with three points, he also fought back with three points, and at this time, Caron Butler still has great confidence in his shooting ability.

He felt good when he made a shot, but in the final stage, he saw that his shot was actually a little off!

Kalombbutler's shot misses and slams into the rim of the basket.

This kind of voice used to be heard a lot, but I don't know why it sounds so harsh today.

Brand struggled with Haslem under the basket, the guy pushed himself behind him, and he made a lot of small movements, Brand mentally commented to Haslem that it was a dirty guy, but just like this, a dirty guy did a great job, squeezing Brand behind him and couldn't move.

Brand and Haslem fought to the death on the inside, while Lewis and Henson looked like polar bears leaning on each other on the inside.

Caron Butler slammed the ball on it, and Brand felt that the ball was his own, because he jumped very far and was still on the ground in his own direction.

Brand is right, the basketball is jumping to this side, and it is the kind of rebound that is far away from the enclave, which is powerful for Brand who is not stuck in the back ground, he used his hand to resist Haslem and prevent Haslem from jumping up, while he jumped up violently, stretched out a hand and fished back the basketball that was about to fly out of the three-second zone!

Haslem, who was obviously stuck in the main position but was stopped by someone and couldn't jump, saw that he lost the backcourt rebound and yelled angrily at the referee!

But the referee didn't even think he heard it, and Haslem's shouting was completely in vain.

Brand undulated beautifully, after Haslem picked up the front-court rebound. He immediately passed the ball to Kaloon Butler.

Kaloon Butler was still outside the three-point line, and he didn't feel very good after taking one shot now, so he went to Oladipo.

At this time, Oladipo also happened to run from the other side. Unlike Caron Butler, Oladipo's lap is also around the big man of his own team and uses other people's cover to run, but his lap is smaller than that of Caron Butler, mainly shooting, and three points are not in the range he is good at.

Oladipo ran over so quickly, taking advantage of a block from Henson, who had just stepped out of the inside, to leave Wade behind at once, and then he watched Caron Butler's pass arrive again.

It was definitely an opportunity for Oladipo and he jumped to his feet quickly. Then he used his own elasticity to jump on the ground and shoot again. At this point, the Pelicans' bad luck finally came.

Oladipo actually missed at this close distance, the basketball slammed into the hoop and was about to fall, but Brand made a little move against Haslem under the basket. He was complaining to the referee in Haslem. He squeezed a corner position under the basket to the basket, which was originally Haslem's, so Haslem was occupied by the doves after losing a backcourt rebound!

He was even more anxious and screaming, while he was by his side preparing to push Brand out!

However, Bran's thick lower limbs and the advantage of his own size are not so easy to shake.

Just as Brand and Haslem were wrestling under the basket, Oladipo shot, and the two big men went from squeezing together to squeezing while looking up.

The basketball fell at a very slow pace. But neither Haslem nor Brand could jump up at this point, because now their bodies were entangled together like a couple tree. No one can squeeze out of the other and jump up on their own, so you can only rely on your height to determine who the basketball belongs to.

At this point, Brand has the advantage, just watch Brand use one hand in the air to completely point the basketball to the place where he can touch it with both hands, and then immediately pick up the basketball with both hands.

In the second frontcourt rebound, the Heat lost two rebounds in a row in their own backcourt!

This time Spoelstra had a headache, and now Spoelstra wants to know very much what Van Gundy has eaten for his teammates, making them all so bad, it seems to be very perverted, and everyone can bite themselves hard when they come up.

At this point, even Hubby Brown focused his attention on Brand.

"Wow! Brand, who is about to retire, is very capable of scrambling! Haslem is famous for his hard work on the inside, and he can't even match this Brand today, he is really an All-Star player, and he almost got the MVP! ”

"Yes, you see! His inner footsteps are still very solid, and his consciousness is also very good, and it is definitely not the case that Wade has been covered in front of him, for so long! Wade and Ray Allen are a bit of trouble dealing with him, the Heat have very few layups, all of them are shot points, and I think this guy has a lot of credit! ”

Walker also praised Brand very much, so the TV camera also focused on the former captain!

Brand turned around and wanted to pass the ball, Haslem was robbed of two rebounds in a row, can he be willing!

Seeing Brand there ready to pass, he came over to interfere, although Brand was old, he was definitely not sluggish in consciousness.

Haslem came up to defend himself with his teeth and claws, but Brand quietly slipped the ball into Henson's hands with a back-to-back pass.

Henson faced Lewis's defense, so Henson quietly suddenly made an inside wipe shot, which caught Lewis off guard.

The Pelicans went through two missed shots, then Brand rebounded twice in the frontcourt before finally putting the basketball into the opposing basket, and this time the offense was very long.

Wade, who turned back, began to dribble while playing

Looking back on the process of being a substitute in the game, after being the first, his own table was indeed relatively withered, and it can also be said that he had no achievements.

At this time, Wade began to reflect on himself, why his situation was so bleak, it was because he couldn't break through the other party's inner line, and the Brand just now didn't look like anything. But it was he who blocked his layup route after moving inside continuously, and he didn't take any changes, that led to the current situation.

At this point, Wade understood something. After that, it is equivalent to giving the Heat more opportunities, because the point guard position often sees the big picture, so his influence on the team is huge.

After Wade's change of strategy, he no longer shook off Oladipo lightly, but pressed Oladipo with a small step dribble, and suddenly started to compress the Pelicans' defense, taking Oladipo to follow him, and then he suddenly stepped back and made a step-back jumper.

This approach is completely different from Wade's style of play after the opening. Wade was a breakout before, and rarely used this kind of mid-range shot.

And seeing Wade finally score like this, LeBron James sat on the sidelines, and laughed. This guy has finally gotten his senses!

The big man of the Pelicans is actually very important for the Pelicans in positional warfare.

Ronnie Brewer and Oladipo are old and young, and there are so many holes in this kind of defense on the outside, but why does the Heat have no way to take each other!

There is only one answer. That's Brand's solid defensive ability. On the inside, it gave the Heat a big shadow.

At this time, LeBron even had a better strategy in his mind than he has now, but he glanced at Spoelstra, and sometimes he felt that Spoelstra needed himself more, and he didn't need the other party very much.

After Wade's simple mid-range shot, Van Gundy also began to mumble on his side, is the opponent going to start a two-guard shooting strategy.

This is absolutely disadvantageous to the Pelicans, and if the other party does this, they will have to be replaced.

Van Gundy muttered here. The court didn't stop, and the Pelicans began to hit the Heat's half! Oladipo has been playing for a long time today.

But Oladipo was not at all satisfied with his watch. Because although his scoring efficiency is acceptable, there are too many holes in the defense, the previous time he let Wade successfully break through and then pass the ball successfully, and now this time he actually directly let Dwyane Wade shoot.

What to do, when Oladipo had this idea at this time, the first thing that came to mind was Li Feng, and he just remembered Li Feng.

He felt that since Li Feng had the ability to help him solve his offensive problems, he would definitely be able to solve his own problems defensively.

After the Pelicans arrived at the Heat, they covered and blocked one after another, and Kaloon Butler had an opportunity to attack here!

His height matched James Jones's ability to shoot at will, but the missed shot in front of him put pressure on Caron Butler, so he didn't shoot and gave it to Oladipo!

When Oladipo came out from behind to catch the basketball, he didn't want to shoot, but the vision left over from being a point guard helped him, and he saw Henson's position on the baseline at a glance.

So after receiving a pass from Caron Butler, he immediately stuffed the basketball into the hands of Henson on the baseline!

It's a very fast process, the passing route is in a triangle, the ball comes out of Caron Butler, Oladipo catches the ball and passes it to Henson as fast as lightning, like Oladipo's jumper, it seems to bounce up, but Oladipo's pass is the same, it seems to bounce into Henson's hand all at once.

Oladipo's pass was so beautiful that even Antoine Walker was there to shout beautifully!

But the problem is not here, the problem is that Henson is completely unprepared, that is to say, this little guy is not ready to catch the ball at all, he does not react, and when he comes over, he instinctively catches it with his hand, but he does not catch it steadily, and it falls off his hand and falls at the feet of Lewis.

Don't you say it's pie in the sky, this beautiful pass turned into a mistake in an instant, and it became a mistake, but after Lewis got the basketball, the veteran immediately passed Wade, Wade instinctively turned around and ran towards the Pelicans' half, such a wonderful pass turned into a mistake, and a mistake became a fast break for the opponent.

Once Wade's fast break runs, Ray Allen and James Jones follow closely behind to form a trident's three-line fast attack!

At this time, the Heat's personnel advantage on the outside line is fully displayed, Oladipo can't help Wade, and Ronnie Brewer can't catch up with Ray Allen.

Seeing this, Spoelstra's eyes lit up, it turned out that this group of Pelicans was not so strong!

They are strong in the flesh integrated into the Pelicans' system, everyone is a screw in this system, and they will definitely not be better than their own players when they are taken out individually, as if it is now a time to test their personal ability in this kind of fast attack, and the Heat's guard line has little resistance at all.

The Pelicans' guard line, or the personnel of the entire team, is not necessarily better than the Heat, but the Pelicans are well coordinated in the halftime, and they can swing out everyone's strengths and avoid everyone's shortcomings!

In this way, the Pelicans relied on overall defense and overall offense to make the whole team look extremely strong, but when it came to this kind of fast break, the Pelicans' weaknesses leaked out.

Wade ran happily, he had a chance to make a layup by himself, but a little back to Ray Allen, completely threw Ronnie Brewer away, and he slipped up from a 45-degree position.

Wade is not such a selfish person, he is just a little lazy, and he passed the ball to Ray Allen, but Ray Allen ignored it so much, took the ball and flew up directly, and directly spread his wings and buckled one on Oladipo's head.

"Bang dang!"

After Ray Allen dunked, he also grabbed the basket with both hands and hung it.

At this time, the American Airlines Center can finally cheer to the fullest, the enthusiasm of the American Airlines Center has been suppressed for too long, the Pelicans' half-court offense and tight hunger cooperation have been like a cloud in the hearts of the fans of the American Airlines Center, and now the appearance of Ray Allen is like a white lightning, appearing in the sky above the American Airlines Center, and suddenly a bleak opening has opened, and finally let the passion of the American Airlines Center be released.

The cheers that the fans prepared for LeBron can only be given to Ray Allen first! (To be continued......)
