LeBron scored 17 points in the first quarter, and after entering the second quarter, he will have more options to pass the ball to his teammates to attack, and Young, stick to him, continue to consume his physical strength, while increasing his offense and putting pressure on him.

"The rest of the team continues to rotate and defend well, and in any case, they can't let their outside line get too many offensive opportunities! Tony, Ray Allen is still the target of the focus of defense, don't let him have an easy shot. ”

"Guys, the five main players of the opposing team only rested for a minute or two in the first quarter of the game, and now they are still on the court, what we have to do is to keep draining their physical strength, and wait until the second half of the game, when their physical strength drops, it is our best chance to counterattack!"

Popovich confidently shouted at his players that he was not angry at James for scoring 17 points in the first quarter, and that the Spurs were even intentional.

Whether it is the regular season or the playoffs, the biggest problem with the Heat is that they rely too much on the performance of superstars, as long as the physical energy of several giants of the Heat, especially James, is consumed enough, for the Spurs, even if they are temporarily behind in the score, it is not unacceptable, because the Spurs still have a back move.

In the first quarter of the game, the defense on the Heat's side was obvious to all, but on the Spurs' side, it was by no means as bad as the score showed, the rest of the Heat's players were basically locked by the Spurs' defense, consuming a lot of physical strength but not getting many offensive opportunities, and although James scored 17 points, his physical exertion in the game was also very much, because most of his scores were his own singles.

This is also the reason why the Spurs trailed by 14 points in the first quarter, but only trailed by 7 points at the end of the first quarter, because at the end of the first quarter, the Heat players were actually not as fluid in the defensive rotation as they were at the beginning of the game due to the decline in physical strength.

Instead, the Spurs maintained almost the same defensive intensity throughout the game, as every player in the Spurs roster was given enough rest.

Take Li Yang as an example, in the first quarter of the game, Li Yang did not score except for the 3 points, and it was difficult to have offensive opportunities under the defense of the Heat in the first half of the game, and when there were scoring opportunities in the second half of the game, Li Yang sat on the court to rest.

Li Yang had almost half a quarter of rest in the first quarter of the game, so at this moment, Popovich could rest assured that Li Yang would attack and put pressure on both ends of the defense, and consume more of James's physical strength, just because Li Yang had enough physical strength.

As for James, although he has excellent physical fitness, but after only a minute and a half of rest in the first quarter of the game, he appeared on the court again in the second quarter, facing Leonard and Li Yang's defense in turn, Popovich can be sure that the opponent's offensive efficiency will be reduced, so he concluded that James will choose to pass more after the start of the second quarter, while the Spurs will strictly guard James's point of play and will not give other Heat players a chance.

It is precisely because of these that Popovich will not have any anger when James scored 17 points in the first quarter of the game, not to mention, James's shooting is not too stable, he shot 2 of 3 three-pointers in the first quarter of the game, and it is entirely possible that he will shoot 0 of 3 three-pointers in the next quarter, and Ray Allen, these Heat shooters, Popovich will not let them find their touch no matter what.

After the two sides laid out the tactics, the players of the two teams came to the court, and the second quarter of the game officially began, with the Heat taking the lead in attacking.

After James controlled the ball to the halfcourt, Li Yang immediately went on defense, which was completely different from the Spurs' defensive strategy in the first quarter of the game.

James tried to start but couldn't succeed, and sure enough, he split the ball and put it in Wade's hands, and Wade couldn't hit the shot under Danny Green's defense.

Parker's advance was still fast, but it was fast, but Parker was not in a hurry, and after seeing that the Heat had already laid out the defense early, Parker quickly pressed down the rhythm.

With Popovich's advice, Li Yang ran actively in the half, so that James was forced to run along, and when Li Yang made a lap from the baseline, Parker immediately handed the ball to Li Yang on the left side of the arc.

received the pass, but Li Yang did not stick to the ball, took a small step towards the top of the arc with the ball, and then handed the ball to the hands of Dio, who was also out to the top of the left arc at this time.

At this moment, the Spurs seemed to decide to attack from the left side, Green continued to cover from the left mid-range, allowing Parker to pocket from the baseline to the left corner to receive the ball, and even Split, who had just stood at the right end of the free throw line, moved to the left side of the free throw line.

This series of moves of the Spurs completely brought the entire defense of the Heat to the left side, and at this moment, Li Yang, who had just been towards the top of the arc, accelerated abruptly, threw off James in a big stride to the top of the arc, and then quickly cut into the inside!

James immediately followed at this time, but he was only halfway through the movement when he was blocked by Split, who was on the left end of the free throw line.

"Chris, stop him!"

James, who was blocked by Split and couldn't keep up with Li Yang's footsteps, couldn't help shouting at Chris Anderson, who was still walking to the left, and Anderson also realized this at this time, and quickly turned around to stop Li Yang who was bypassing from behind.

However, how fast Li Yang's speed was, Anderson had just turned around, and Li Yang had already "swished" and rushed directly past him and rushed to the basket.

At the same time, the ball in Dior's hand, which looked like it was going to pass to Parker, was also sent quickly to the direction of the basket.

"Nice cut, Young, air relay...... Bang!”

Li ............ Yang !!!"

The shouts of Mike Brin and the live DJ rang out almost at the same time, and the Spurs fans, both on and off the court, were also shouting excitedly at the moment.

The cheers of "!!" erupted throughout the arena, roaring and gathering in the middle of the field.

“Defence！Defence！”

And when the Heat attacked, the cheers on the scene instantly transformed into neat shouts and cheers, and then again into huge cheers 20 seconds later.

The Heat's offense is still initiated by James, and the Heat are facing the same situation as the previous minute at this time, that is, James is entangled by Li Yang at the moment, and once he forcibly breaks through, he will encounter a pinch, but the ball passed by James cannot be converted into a scoring opportunity, and the Spurs' rotation defense is too good.

The ball returned to James' hands with 7 seconds left in the offensive time, and James, who got the ball, glanced at Li Yang in front of him, and directly pulled out the shot outside the three-point line.

In front of James, Li Yang didn't have time to jump at the moment, so he could only raise his hand to interfere, but the unstable characteristics of James' outside shooting finally began to show at this moment, and James in the first quarter of the game shot 2 out of 3 three-pointers, and he was not able to continue the feeling of the first quarter at this moment

"Bang!" the ball hit the basket hard and missed!

"Coax!" When seeing Split's inside protection rebound, the scene once again resounded with cheers, Li Yang's aerial relay just now has narrowed the gap between the two sides to 5 points, and now, the Spurs have the opportunity to further narrow the difference!
