"Let's fight like this......"

Spo picked up the tactics board and redrew a few tactics for Wade and James and others, which is exactly the tactic that the Heat will focus on in the next three quarters.

It is mainly the combination of inside and outside and the blocking and dismantling of the protrusion.

The so-called combination of inside and outside is Inside out, which is usually the inside player holding the ball in the low post to attract the defense, creating an opportunity for the outside player to shoot in the open position or cut to the basket.

Pick-and-roll and break-and-roll are two tactics that can also be combined, with the outside ball carrier as the tactical core, the inside player as a cover, and the outside shooter as a space for him, so that the ball carrier can better break through to the basket to complete the finish.

Combining the combination of inside and outside and blocking and dismantling, it is not difficult to see that Spo deliberately strengthened James' role in the next game.

After all, the Bulls' death trio hit the Heat's seven inches directly!

As we all know, the Heat's core tactic is defensive counter-attack.

Wade, Battier, James, Bosh, just the defensive quality brought by these four infinite defensive changes is enough for all teams in the league to drink.

In those days, NBA teams were usually only able to score around 100 points, and when they met the Heat, they were usually limited to around 90 points.

Wade and Battier are quite good at defending perimeter players, and the Heat have four or five players who average one steal per game, in addition to Wade and James are hat chasers.

The Heat, relying on defense, were able to make more turnovers and get more defensive rebounds, and then use that to hit and switch offense.

While the vast majority of teams in the league only average about 20 points per game, the Heat score more than 30 points.

Therefore, relying on defensive counterattacks alone, the Heat can create a gap of nearly 20 points with ordinary teams.

However, the defensive counterattack is still based on defense after all.

If the Heat want to win more games, they also need more offensive tactics.

However, there is a certain degree of incompatibility in the configuration of the Heat triumvirate.

Especially in the playoffs, Wade and James' unstable projection limited the Heat's ability to score in positional battles.

If it's just the regular season, the Heat can rely on the Big Three to play talent and win game after game.

But now it's the playoffs, and when the Bulls die three forwards, especially Bosh is absent due to injury, the Heat's talent ball can't be played.

This is also where the Bulls' death trio restrained the Heat.

After all, with Wade and James as the core, the more common way to play is to block and dismantle small guards, and pick soft persimmons.

It has to be said that Wade and James are both famous blockers in the league.

An explosive enough to break through quickly. A body is large enough, strong enough, and can also elbow and walk.

Two different styles of play are enough for the Heat to overcome the perimeter defense of most teams across the league.

Even against teams that are good at joint defense, Wade can use explosiveness, footwork and feints to score the ball in the crowd.

James is also able to rely on his dreamy walks and physical gifts, with one or two people hanging from him to finish the game.

To put it bluntly, as long as Wade and James are allowed to rush and let them run and jump to the fullest, there will be no pressure on the Heat to score.

However, the Bulls' death trio is able to change and supplement the defense at the first time when Wade and James block and dismantle, so that Wade and James can't rush.

Or even if you rush up in the first two steps, you are still intercepted in the penalty area.

At this time, Wade and James either have to make a layup and throw a shot, or they can only break through the ball and pass the ball to their teammates on the perimeter to let them complete the finish.

The former is a difficult shot, and it is normal that the hit rate is not high.

The latter happened to be in the playoffs again, and it was against the Bulls, who were among the top five in the league in defensive efficiency, and it was normal for shooters to shoot inaccurately.

When Wade and James were limited, they couldn't easily score under the basket as they used to.

On the contrary, he was forced to make difficult shots, and then frequently hit the iron, giving the Bulls some opportunities to switch offense.

In this case, the Heat are naturally easily in a situation where the score is behind.

In order to break the scoring drought and increase scoring efficiency, Spo hopes that the Heat players can attack more in the low post and score more inside.

In fact, last year's Heat lost the Finals when they met the Lakers with strong outside defense, which led to the failure of defensive counterattacks and pick-and-roll breakthroughs in the regular season.

So, even if James didn't hit the mountains in Puerto Rico, he hit the mountains in other places, and he hit a nose of dust.

Why did James learn from Olajuwon in the summer, and why did he add weight to play the No. 4 position? It's just to be able to score more on the inside, to be able to bully the big on the inside.

In order to help James get a better low-post singles opportunity, the Heat also gave James the Inside out tactics that they had assigned to O'Neal in the past.

James doesn't have O'Neal's terrifying low-post back-to-back skills and under-the-basket finishing ability, but he has excellent passing vision and passing ability.

Wade's off-ball cut, coupled with the three-pointers of Moneymos and Battier, can create opportunities for James to play with his back and play big and small

At the same time, James' passing can also help Wade and others score.

However, the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and Bosh was out injured, leaving the Heat without other players who could attract defense in the low post.

Bulls interior players can unscrupulously pinch James, which makes James, who originally had average ball control and back-to-back skills, play even more uncomfortable.

James hit a few shots in the low post, either being cut by a defender behind him, being forced to lose the ball after a pinch, or being blocked when he turned around and was ready to shoot.

Spo's targeted tactics for James not only did not have any effect, but further widened the point difference.

However, James is not one to be easily discouraged.

If you can't do it, you can do it again.

It doesn't work in the low post, and you can still hold the ball in the high post.

James also knew that the Bulls Death Trio was impenetrable, so he pretended to dribble under his crotch continuously, pretending to change the rhythm to break through, and then pulled back to the position of observing his teammates.

Perhaps because no one ran out of the open space and no one stepped forward to answer, James dribbled the ball under his crotch again, and suddenly closed the ball and stepped back to the side, suddenly casting a cold arrow.

Although James has gained weight this season, his three-point production has actually increased compared to last season.

However, the three-point shooting percentage, that's hard to say.

The regular season has actually improved a bit, and you can see that there has been hard work.

But in the playoffs, it often takes three or four shots to happen to score one, and the shooting percentage remains below 30%.

This also means that in the playoffs, James does not need to shoot more three-pointers.

It's just that the score still has to be scored, and the ball possession has to be consumed.

It is said that the Heat is Wade's team, shoot a few more three-pointers, take the points that should be won, and let Wade take care of the rest, which is very reasonable, right?

Seriously, Wade's three-point ability is worse than James'.

In the case of the death of the three strikers against the Bulls and the natural loss of the size of the guard against the upper line, Wade did not rush to the basket with all his brains.

Wade also tried to save his life with a three-point shot, betting on his luck.

So I don't think there's anything wrong with James' 1-of-6 three-point shot.

It's just that after the Eastern Conference Finals G1 was played, the Bulls beat the Heat by 28 points, which is a problem.

Compared with last year, the Bulls' lineup has actually not changed much, mainly because the rookies have grown.

And their Heat, obviously the defense has become better, the cooperation has become more tacit, and the lineup has been strengthened and more solid.

But it was also a game in the Eastern Conference Finals, last year the Heat pressed the Bulls to play, but this year they were beaten!

Obviously, it's just a lack of a Bosh, and obviously James has scored a lot, but the game situation is very different.

"What the hell is going wrong here?" Wade was eager to know the answer.
