Rest for 15 minutes and come back for the second half.
Laili sent an attacking lineup of O'Neal, Walker, Su Bei, Wade and Payton to grab a wave of points and narrow the point difference to the range where a reversal could be seen.
The Nets have no choice. The boss is unwilling to spend money. The only player in the lineup who can play is the outside trident. The outbreak of "basically not attacking" in this game gave them an advantage. Now is the time to ensure the fruits of victory. The lineup
They were at a disadvantage last time. They couldn't make any mistakes in this game, so they had to go all out, even if there was no one missing from the lineup.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Heat wanted to play a tactic of grabbing three points. Kidd seemed to have predicted the Heat's actions and allowed the Nets to expand their defense.
Walker caught the ball and was watched. However, Walker was not afraid. He could blindly shoot the ball and hit a three-point jumper against the defense...
Bang-dang——!
Missed.
Walker didn't suffer from convulsions, so the opportunity was useless.
The rebound was protected by the Nets.
Kidd began to control the field and slowly organized. To put it bluntly, he was just stalling for time.
In Doudizhu, this trick may be useless, but on the basketball court, delaying time is really good. It can change the opponent's mentality and reduce the number of offensive rounds. If you can take the shot before the 24 seconds are up, you can hit the buzzer.
If it's three points, it's simply murderous and heartbreaking.
Kidd is in such good condition that he can definitely give it a try.
However, the Nets are not so lazy. Kidd is famous for his smart play, and they are all waiting for him to retire!
"Krstic and Jason Cozens pulled into the corner. After 18 seconds were spent, the Nets took action to evacuate the Heat's inside line.
The Heat couldn't defend their inside line, so the Nets started a pick-and-roll tactic..."
Moreover, it is still a double pick-and-roll tactic.
Kostic and Jefferson on the left pick and roll, and Jason Collins and Carter on the right attack the pick and roll tactics.
Kidd broke away from Payton's defense, jumped up with the ball, flicked his hands in the air, and passed the basketball to Jefferson who was screened on the left and cut into the penalty area.
Subei was blocked.
"After receiving the ball, Jefferson rushed to the penalty area, faced O'Neal's block, and threw the basketball with one hand..."
Snapped--!
Bang-dang——!
Beep——!
Three voices sounded, one after the other.
O'Neal used a foul to interrupt Jefferson's inevitable dunk.
"O'Neal paid for the foul, and now he has 4 fouls on his body.
I see.
Compared to controlling the rhythm, taking O'Neal off the court is probably the most advantageous way to control the situation against the Heat..."
Not a possibility, but a certainty.
The Heat's perimeter lineup is either rookies or veterans.
Compared to the Nets' mature perimeter trident, the Heat's Su Bei, or Wade, or Payton...are really not good enough.
Moreover, O'Neal doesn't have many "cat" lives left, so it seems possible to take him off the field.
In the 4th minute, Su Bei used Wade's screen and received an assist from Payton and scored a three-pointer.
It's just a drop in the bucket.
In the 6th minute, O'Neal finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he didn't need to bear it anymore and swatted the two flies in front of him, Jefferson and Carter, who were attacking the penalty area to death.
After 5 fouls, O'Neal came off the court to wake up. Just like the first quarter, in the third quarter, O'Neal's offensive data also dropped to zero, with 2 fouls and 1 turnover, and he couldn't even get a rebound.
"Kidd was once the Suns in the Western Conference and was suppressed by the OK team. Now that he's in the Eastern Nets, he can't escape the punishment of the OK team. He probably used all his cards to deal with O'Neal tonight.
In the first three quarters of tonight's game, O'Neal was like sleepwalking. If the entire series was like this tonight, the Heat would probably send it away..."
After O'Neal left the game, Mourning came on.
The Nets' defense on the outside is also tighter.
The Heat's outside firepower failed to open up the situation, and Mourning, who was half-dead, could not defeat the Nets.
After all, the Nets' lead is close to 20 points.
In addition, Payton's organization was also unable to beat Kidd under pressure.
In a head-to-head confrontation, Payton couldn't withstand Kidd's pressing. He could only protect the ball with his back. It's a shame to be organized like this.
Su Bei's three-pointer, against the defense, missed the shot.
Walker's three-pointer also clanged and missed.
Wade also tried his hand at three-point shooting and almost missed a three-point shot. This was so damn outrageous that he had to go out...
"Without O'Neal, the Heat's offense is not dominant. Now they are behind in the score and their mentality is anxious. They cannot show their own characteristics, or the Nets do not give them their own characteristics. If this continues, the Heat will be in danger!
"
"The Heat couldn't use their strength tonight and played painfully. They completely fell into the rhythm and trap of the Nets... Fortunately, the Heat are not without gains!"
Bang-dang——!
Kidd broke through Payton's defense and missed a two-point jumper from close range.
Payton can't keep up.
Lai Li replaced Jason Williams.
Subsequently, in the Nets' offensive round, Kidd hit Jason Williams with his back, thinking it was a point question. Unexpectedly, there was a bang, and Kidd struck again.
You say this is good news for the Heat?
The super-god Kidd has changed back to "basic but not offensive". How could this not be good news?
Even though I know you are talking nonsense, if you look at it carefully, it still makes sense.
After all, a basic lack of offense is just a basic lack of offense. Even if he performed superbly in the first half, he will still be the same boy in the second half!
After this experience, the next game will be much easier, right?
In the third quarter, Kidd only made 1 of 4 shots and scored 5 points and 2 assists with free throws.
This is also the reason why the Lakers management did not want to trade Kobe for him.
Kobe sometimes, or even most of the time, does three irons on his back, but at least his shooting posture is still beautiful.
Where's Kidd?
The shot is mediocre, the posture has no aesthetics, it is ordinary, and it is so hard-hitting, how can any fans pay for it?
Unfortunately, for the Heat, the appearance of Jibu Gong made this game too late.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In the third quarter, the Nets continued to suppress the Heat, widening the point difference to 19 points.
The fourth quarter of the game.
Laili miraculously replaced O'Neal, and at the same time, Haslem, Posey, Su Bei and Wade also played.
The Heat have not given up yet and do not want to give up their home court advantage easily.
Moreover, the series is still long.
The Nets' lineup is thin, so let's bet that the Nets can't remove all their main players.
"The Heat have had nearly a week more rest than the Nets, and their lineup is thicker than the Nets. Now the fourth quarter is no longer a win or loss, but an overtime game. No matter how the game ends, the loser will win.
The name must be Nets!"
Bang-dang——!
O'Neal hung up his long arms and blasted the basketball into the basket.
O'Neal is a killer when he catches the basketball.
No matter whether there are two or three people in front of him, O'Neal chooses to fight hard.
If one or two people are knocked unconscious and injured, the Heat will make a profit.
On defense, he took advantage of the second flaw of the Nets' lack of shooters and tightened up to block the penalty area.
Jefferson hit the wall first. His breakthrough attack broke the bone. He faced the defense and forced a two-point jump shot...
Bang-dang——!
His mid-range shot is not stable.
To be able to perform as a quasi-All-Star, in addition to relying on his violent physical talent, the rest also depends on Kidd's cake-making ability.
Without Kidd, he is nothing, just like the 2000 No. 1 pick, Kenyon Martin.
Carter is also restricted from breaking through and rushing to the basket. His dunks are alien-level, but among the four major shooting guards, his mid-range shooting is probably only a little better than Iverson. There is no shooting space or breakthrough space.
Although there are points, the efficiency will definitely drop.
Fortunately, he is a superstar. As long as he rushes to the basket, he still has body hair. The final total score is not much less, it is still about 22 points, which is 2 anyway.
There is a problem with two prongs of the trident, but Kidd is not in a hurry.
He chose to fly the attack time for a while, until the last 3 seconds before taking action. With his state tonight, plus being close to a 20-point lead, he could shoot the buzzer-beating shot to kill the Heat!
In fact, Kidd can be more confident and remove the possibility.
His buzzer-beating shot can really kill the Heat.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
"Basically don't attack" is back.
Kidd made 1 of 5 shots in the fourth quarter, but so what?
The advantage lies with me, I can't lose the game even if I want to.
Buzz——!
The buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game is over.
According to the score, the Nets turned around and defeated the Heat with an 8-point advantage, taking a 1-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals series.
Carter made 6 of 15 shots and free throws, and scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. His performance was still solid and he did not lose the face of the four major shooting guards.
Jefferson scored 22 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and the third player also performed well.
Kidd made 4 of 6 three-pointers and 3 of 4 free throws. He scored 27 points, 8 assists, 10 rebounds and 4 steals. The 19 points were scored in the first half. Kidd, who can shoot three-pointers, can still win the championship when he is old.
Champion, if you want to win a game, it shouldn't be too easy.
Wade made 8 of 19 shots, 9 of 15 free throws, and scored 25 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists. His statistics looked good, and his efficiency was average.
O'Neal was invisible for two quarters and scored zero points, but he was still able to knock down rebounds. The Heat's inside advantage is immense, but the Nets' inside line is really crappy.
Su Bei got 13 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. As one of the Big Three, his performance was too poor. He couldn't cooperate with the combination of the blind and the blind to be called the Big Three. Unless he was blind, he would call Su Bei a giant.
You said you were a role player, playing or coming off the bench?
Oh, that's none of your business, role players can't bear the blame for losing.
O'Neal and Wade have to shoulder the blame for losing.
This can also be regarded as a benefit for role players.
Winning is the shining part of the puzzle, losing is the core being too weak.
