Chapter 355: Guard, Low-Rank Overlord!

After successfully advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals, the Bulls players are quietly waiting for the results of the other Eastern Conference Semifinals.

However, unexpectedly, the Heat, who were obviously stronger, were dragged into the seven-game by the Pacers, and finally relied on James to step on Grant to get through the danger.

Normally, even in order to win, it should be a role player who does this kind of dirty work.

In addition to the eighties and nineties, the Pistons Bad Boys and the Utah Twins, the stars of the house have gone down in person, and this year it is James.

In this regard, Brother Alphabet, who is about to enter the NBA, said that James also did it!

"Although the Miami Heat are familiar opponents, we can't take the next game lightly.

Stephen, especially you, pay attention to your feet when shooting.

We need your shots, we need you to stay healthy.

In addition to that, everyone else should be careful, you are likely to get elbowed when you are defending and pushed to the waist when you break to the basket.

Health wins the championship, we must be healthy and complete the road to winning this year! ”

Before the Eastern Conference Finals, Bulls head coach Scott Skels hosted a video studio meeting to remind all players on the Bulls' playoff roster to be cautious in the upcoming games.

Doon and the others nodded yes.

After all, the bloody example is in front of you, whether it is for your own health, for your career, for the team, for this year's championship, you must try to avoid injury in the next games.

To this end, the Bulls players got used to the feeling of playing with armor early, and also practiced some protective moves when shooting and layups.

In the end, be careful to sail the ship of 10,000 years, and there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is May 22nd.

It's the Chicago Union Center again, and with a whistle, the Eastern Conference Finals are on.

Aldridge helped the Bulls jump to possession, and the Bulls took the lead in attacking.

Doon first played a cross-screen with Curry, let Curry take the ball and hit one, looking for a feeling.

And the Heat did cooperate, but they just let Battier lead the defense and did not attack in advance.

After seeing Doon pass the ball to Curry, he went straight to the bottom right corner. There is a high probability that he is also worried that Doane will play a low post, and no one in James and Bosh will be able to defend against Doane, so they set up a joint defense early and shrink the basket.

So, when Curry got the ball, Chanmos was a big step away from Curry, Curry took the ball and shook it, and Chanmos flew out directly.

In the past, Curry made a one-off three-point shot as soon as he got the ball.

It's also because the other day I learned some away games to avoid being stamped, and I also practiced some protective moves.

This time, Curry first used a feint to shake off the defender, and then dribbled to the side, and then he made an open three-point shot.

Seeing this, Bosh under the basket immediately pounced from the inside, but Curry shot too fast and didn't jump high.

By the time Bosh pounced on the Curry, Curry had already landed.

In this regard, Bosh has no choice but to take the initiative to avoid it, as for whether he has other ideas, it is unknown.

After all, the Heat triumvirate teamed up under such great pressure from public opinion, and as a result, in the past three years, except for an overall runner-up, there has been no gain.

If I lose again this year, I'm afraid I will be broken up and go our separate ways.

After another year, there is also the issue of renewing the contract.

So, who knows if they're using some unusual means to tackle the Bulls, their biggest rival in the East, or even in the league, for their own sake?

Having said that, as the NBA's No. 1 three-point shooter, Curry's three-point shooting ability is beyond doubt.

Before making a three-point shot in the open position this time, Curry also adjusted himself with the dribble, and the shooting feeling was naturally better.

Brush –

Ball in! The Bulls relied on Curry's three-pointer to take the lead and build a three-point lead.

Seeing this, James immediately took the ball and slipped out of the baseline, passed the ball to Wade, and then immediately tried to go down with Wade.

The Bulls know the Heat's tricks, and they are not slow to defend at all.

The Heat failed to play a transition offense, so they put on a triangular position, Bosh held the ball high, James crouched in the bottom corner, and Wade ran without the ball and kept walking between the Bulls penalty area.

I have to say that Bosh still has a long neck, at least he has a wide field of vision.

Aldridge, the tallest on the Bulls' court, was behind Bosh and couldn't stop Bosh from hitting the ground and passing the ball to Wade, who was cutting in the air.

And before Wade leaned on the air cut, he pushed George in advance, and then ran back to get the ball to the basket, which immediately rose to the ground and dunked with both hands.

It's a simple pass-and-cut combination, but it's also a showcase of the stars' attraction to each other, defense, and athleticism.

"Oh my, I didn't follow him, he ran too fast." George raised his hand to the basket and apologized to the rest of his teammates.

Doon slipped the ball off the line and instead passed it to George, encouraging: "Dwyane is my brother and no one knows his talent better than me.

He can win the championship with Shaq, and he is the big man of the Heat.

It's normal that you can't stop him, and it's hard for us to do it for you.

But hopefully, you can pick yourself up, stay focused, try to be on the defensive end as much as possible, and help us limit Dwyan.

Please, Paul, we need your energy. ”

When Doon encouraged George, the Heat players were about to come back to defense.

Although the scene was a little noisy, it was not far away, especially James and Battier, who were already in the low post, heard the conversation between Doon and George more clearly.

As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention of the listener.

As soon as Doon's words came out, James's heart instantly fluctuated, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.

However, there are few people who have been able to stay calm on the court throughout the ages.

Even Doon, who has won so many championships, is now in the Eastern Conference Finals, and his mood has fluctuated.

In the second offensive round of the Bulls, Doon decisively took the ball in the low post.

Instead of directly using his shooting ability, Doon turned his back to the rim and bullied James with his height and projection, but continued to hit James with his back and chisel hard under the basket.

Because Doon's goal is not to embarrass James, but to constantly put pressure on the low post, attract Bosh's defense, and then be able to play against Bosh.

One thing to say, this season Doon has privately paid a lot of attention to the Heat, as a lot of research.

After seeing through the triangle offensive tactics used by the Heat in positional warfare, Doon was already thinking about a way to crack the Heat.

If you want to crack the triangle attack, you must solve the central axis of the triangle attack, that is, the point where the high position holds the ball.

Bosh can handle the ball and respond, the key is to have a hand to shoot.

Even if a teammate doesn't run out of the open space, he can force one-on-one singles with projection.

Once he can mismatch a small defender or a softer forward player, Bosh has more room to play.

However, holding the ball is a very physically demanding thing, and when you get the ball, you will always be physically opposed by the defender, which consumes a lot of physical strength.

And Bosh's role in the Heat is not only to hold the ball, strategize, and attack, but also to defend, card position, and grab rebounds.

In the playoffs, there were only seven or eight players in the rotation, and the Heat were notoriously deadly players, with Bosh playing 38 minutes to say the least.

So, watching the Heat's game, it's easy to draw some conclusions that Bosh will take a lot fewer shots in the second half than in the first half, and the scoring efficiency will not be as good as in the first half.

In the final analysis, these situations are due to the fact that Bosh is limited by physical factors.

In the case of ensuring that there are as few mistakes as possible in holding the ball and the quality and quantity of the defense, Bosh can only reduce his shots and reduce the number of attacks.

And this also means that if you want to weaken Bosh's influence on the game, you just need to consume Bosh's physical strength in advance.

Once Bosh doesn't have the physical strength to shoot consistently, then he will be embarrassed by the whole Heat team when he gets the ball in the high post.

As long as the Bulls limit others from getting the ball, they can do a good job of defending, and they can even let Bosh go when necessary.

In order to achieve such an effect, to make the Heat dumb at a critical moment, Doon spent his mind on Bosh early.

Doon played his first low-post singles of the tournament, and Bosh didn't disappoint Doon either.

I saw Doon turn his back and rush to the middle, James was stuck half of his body by Doon, although he turned around and defended up, but there was no way to stop Doon from continuing to kill under the basket.

At the critical moment, Bosh made up for it, and then Doon closed the ball elbow and leaned on Bosh.

In the regular season, the referee may also award Bosh a blocking foul, of course, there is no doubt in the playoffs, and Doon and Bosh are no problem in this round.

Doon elbowed the way, just trying to consume Bosh.

And after the physical confrontation, Doon also jumped strongly under the basket, dunked with both hands, and responded to Wade's ball just now.

"Unbelievable, Doon made a two-game basket and dunked the ball into the basket!"

"Explosive athletic talent, strong physical confrontation, perfect violent buckles, can be called a model of violent aesthetics!"

“MVP,MVP,MVP!”

"A contest between real men! Doon first singled out James with his back, and then completed a violent dunk under Bosh's supplemental defense, which is undoubtedly a top ten ball! ”

"Doon has been competing with James and Bosh since he came up, and tonight's game is really full of gunpowder!

Next, it depends on whether the Heat can respond, if no one can respond, Doon may be going crazy tonight!

James and Bosh can't even defend Hibbert, and Doon, who wants to defend against low-post offense, can't do so.

If the physical strength is enough, I believe Doon can still score 50 points tonight! ”

After Doon completed the violent dunk in one hit and two, not only the commentators who commented on the game were very excited, but the fans at the scene couldn't hold back and cheered enthusiastically with their relatives and friends.

G1 tickets to the Eastern Conference Finals aren't cheap, let alone home tickets to the Chicago Bulls, the league's third-most valuable team.

Bulls fans who arrive at the United Center tonight will surely hope that Doane and other Bulls players can perform well, feast their eyes and make it worth the ticket price.

“MVP,MVP,MVP!”

It didn't take long for the United Center to burst into cheers again, which made the Heat players on the court dizzy.

Originally, Doon won low-post singles one after another, and the Heat players already had a headache.

Now that the atmosphere at home is so strong and the fans are overwhelming, the Bulls players are undoubtedly playing harder with the strong support of the fans.

Under a lot of physical confrontation, even the Heat Big Three can't maintain scoring efficiency.

As the point difference gradually widened, Doon no longer blindly forced a single shot.

However, Doon began to smoke in the bottom corner, and the difference on the field widened.

This is actually quite normal.

Doon scored 10 straight points on 5-of-6 shooting four minutes ahead.

The Heat players already have some conditioned reflexes for Doane to take the ball in the low post, and they will choose to shrink the defense as soon as possible and make up for the pinch as soon as possible.

Before coming to the Bulls, Doon started as a point guard with the Lakers, with the passing and organizational skills of a point guard, and a passing vision far beyond that of an ordinary point guard.

So, once Doon notices that a Heat player is pinching early, he will pass the ball back to his teammates on the perimeter.

The other Bulls players relied on Doon to attract the defense in the low post, constantly receiving the ball from the outside and shooting open three-pointers, and quickly threw their hands away.

The home fans were so enthusiastic tonight that the Bulls' starting five Tigers except for Doane were also in high spirits and refused to let Doon focus on the front.

Brush Brush Brush –

The Bulls' three-pointers went in succession, and the difference widened all at once.

Even if Spo called two timeouts in the first quarter, it didn't work very well, and the Bulls made six three-pointers in the first quarter.

It is worth mentioning that Doon did not shoot a single three-pointer until the end of the first quarter.

26 to 38!

It stands to reason that the Heat can score 26 points in a single quarter in the Eastern Conference Finals, and they have played very well on the offensive end!

But when I looked at the Bulls' score in the first quarter, it almost came to 40+. I have to say, this is a bit too exaggerated!

However, it is not surprising that Doon alone scored 15 points.

Besides, Doon wasn't the only one who scored high with the bulls.

Curry also scored three three-pointers in the first quarter, plus a layup, and scored 11 points in the first quarter.

Doon and Curry's scores tied the Heat's entire team, and the 12-point lead in the remaining quarter was not an exaggeration.

After all, even Hibbert can abuse Bosh, and the Bulls originally had the idea of using offense to consume Bosh's physical strength.

So as early as the first quarter, the Bulls kept passing the ball to the inside, allowing Aldridge and Ibaka to consume Bosh.

Well, the result is good.

Not only did he complete the score, but he also saddled Bosh with two fouls early.

It's just that the constant low position and strong hitting consume a lot of physical strength. This is true for Doon, and so is Ibaka and Aldridge.

So at this stage at the beginning of the second quarter, the three main forces of the Bulls were not on the court.

Relying solely on lineups like Curry, Ray Allen, Leonard, George, and White Edge to play against the Heat, they soon fell into disadvantage.

Now the strength of the peak James is still not to be underestimated.

Not to mention, even in the playoffs, James' dream walks and elbows can still work anytime and anywhere.

Xiaoka has not yet entered his peak, and there is no way to arrest James who traveled at the wrong peak.

Not to mention, James's blocking skills are also becoming more and more proficient, and from time to time he makes trouble with Curry and Ray Allen, and George and Xiaoka have to step forward to wipe the butts of the two guards.

After the lead narrowed to 6 points, Doon could only go on the court early and try to use low singles to drain James's physical strength, thereby reducing James' offensive efficiency.

James knew how powerful Doon was, so he took the initiative to avoid the battle and changed Bosh to defend Doon.

After all, now Doon is playing like O'Neal in the low post, and he is a low-post hegemon.

James said that if he wants to score more points for the Heat, then someone has to do the dirty work, and then he can only exchange for Bosh.

In fact, Haslem was very bold and took the initiative to defend Doon, but he was eaten two rounds in a row, and then he learned to be obedient and abdicated like James to make way for Xian.

"We need a big man who can defend Doon!"

Watching Doon shine on the field and unstoppable in the low post, Coach Spo was full of bitterness.

The championship team has no room to strengthen, which is deadly!

And the culprit who caused all this is fighting the court at this time, and seems to be playing harder than Wade, the big boss.

Of course, this is true on the offensive end, but not necessarily on the defensive end.

Otherwise, Doon wouldn't be able to do whatever he wants on the field. (End of chapter)
