Chapter 554 But as it happens, the Thunder like to challenge their own offensive weaknesses!
The score is 20 to 2!
The Thunder started with an 18-point deficit, and they didn't know how they would play next.
However, Westbrook did not waste any more time offensively.
His shooting percentage of 0-for-5 in the opening game let him know that his shooting skills, which are not good enough to feed a cat, would not be able to test the Heat's defense.
"Let's continue to be a reckless person.
Chalmers still couldn't compare, so he fought and retreated.
Westbrook broke through to the end. It was impossible to go all the way. He went in, jumped out again, and passed the basketball to Harden on the outside.
Harden got the basketball and continued to break through with the ball...
I hit, I hit, I hid, I hit again, the Thunder copied the DDM tactics..."
With Harden on the court.
At this time, Su Bei, who was promoted from the shooting guard position to the power forward, cut into the basket from the left corner. With the help of Perkins' screen, he got rid of Wade's defense and ran to the right corner.
Peng——!
Harden hit the ground and passed the ball immediately.
In the three-point corner on the right, Su Bei received the ball, faced Battier's rush to block the shot, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper...
"At the critical moment, we still look to Su Bei for a three-point tactic!
This ball opportunity is coming, does Subei have a basket?
Battier rushed out but failed to block the shot. He was penetrated too deep by Harden and could no longer be guarded...
Swish——!
pretty!
Subei’s three points are there!
It's so hard!
In such a crushing game with a big score behind, Su Bei's shooting skills are the most reliable.
Giving a chance is really useful!"
"At this moment, maybe it's not all a bad thing for the Thunder to be defeated.
At least I understand that relying on the offensive combat power of Yin Baka, Perkins and Westbrook cannot defeat the Heat.
In the next game, the Thunder should create offensive opportunities for Su Bei and Durant, these two scoring killers, which is the correct way to win.
The Heat used their two aces, James and Wade, to specifically guard Durant and Su Bei. They simply told the Thunder that they were afraid of the offensive firepower of those two players.
In the G1 game, one scored 34 points, the other scored 31 points, a combined score of 65 points. Who can withstand the offensive test of the 'poisonous combination'?
However, the Thunder wanted to challenge their own weakness and use the offense of Westbrook and the inside team to test the Heat's defense. It was a hell of a move..."
Finally, after elimination!
Thunder team, it's almost dawn.
20 to 5!
The score difference became 15 points.
Off the court, Scott Brooks breathed a sigh of relief.
The Thunder still have a chance.
On the court, the Heat attack.
Wade caught the ball calmly, without looking for any flaws in Su Bei's footsteps, and directly asked for a tactical coordination.
“It’s hard to bear!
Bosh pulled up from the penalty area to the high post. As the Thunder's only inside player, will Perkins guard him?
If the defense is out, the basket protection in the penalty area will be nothing more than a feint..."
At this point, Perkins had no choice, knowing that Bosh had a stable mid-range shot.
If he doesn't guard him, Bosh's mid-range shot will teach the Thunder how to behave defensively.
"Su Bei's pursuit was blocked by Bosh.
Wade broke through, too fast, and passed Perkins in a blink of an eye, just like walking on the street in the early morning.
Heading towards the basket, Durant swept past, but Wade did not flinch and chased after Durant..."
Beep——!
Peng, shua——!
When the whistle sounded, Wade fouled Durant's thug and also sent the basketball into the basket, making the score 2 1!
“Very nice!
Once upon a time, O'Neal and Wade's pick-and-roll tactics helped the Heat win the first championship in team history!
Using pick-and-roll tactics can release Wade's offensive firepower and fully utilize his dislocated physical advantage. What can you use to counter it..."
You can't stand it!
Bang-dang——!
Wade missed the free throw and missed the chance to hit a 3-pointer.
The score is 22 to 5!
The point difference became 17 points.
Not very bad.
At least the Heat's response failed.
However, the Thunder are also hurt.
While the team's flaws in protecting the basket were magnified, Durant also suffered two fouls.
With no choice, Scott Brooks had to replace Durant with Collison.
At the same time, Perkins was removed and Billups was replaced.
Since you can't do defense or protect the basket, then don't do anything else.
The Thunder stopped guarding and went straight to attack.
Anyway, we are already 17 points behind. The defense is too weak and the offensive firepower cannot keep up. It is also a loss. We might as well focus on the offense.
At this time, the Thunder's lineup became Collison, Su Bei, Harden, Westbrook, and Billups.
"This is a five-death lineup that only attacks but does not defend!
The Thunder are going to work hard offensively, let’s see how the Heat respond..."
On the Heat's side, Spoelstra was a talent. With a wave of his hand, he replaced Chalmers with Haslem.
The lineup at this time has become Haslem, Bosh, James, Battier, and Wade.
They played an iron-blooded defensive lineup, maxed out their defensive attributes, and wanted to protect the penalty area and rebounds, defend a wave steadily, and seize the opportunity for the Thunder to switch offense and defense after making a mistake.
If the Thunder's shooting is not strong, the Heat can rely on their advantage inside and play defensive counterattacks to steadily open up the score and kill the game.
On the court, Billups controlled the ball to the top of the arc and immediately turned over Westbrook's card.
"Westbrook broke through with the ball, but was blocked by the Heat's zone defense. He couldn't get in, but there was still no waste. The ball was passed back to Billups.
The latter immediately turned over Harden's cards, then played music, and then dribbled the ball through, but was blocked by Battier and James. Harden did not force the ball and passed the ball to Su Bei on the outside.
The Heat didn't dare to take the shot, and James immediately saved it.
Hey, Su Bei didn't force the shot, and gave the basketball to Harden, who went in and came out again. Then, he continued to dribble the ball to break through. Battier couldn't keep up, and was passed by Harden's European step, killing him.
Under the basket, completed the layup..."
Swish——!
Harden European-stepped past Battier, protected the basket with Bosh's hands, and still sent the damn basketball to the basket.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! 22 to 7!
The score difference became 15 points.
"The Thunder's offense is unstoppable!
The continuous raids made the Heat's defense exhausted.
Moreover, Subei's three-point shooting spot cannot be released, so the Thunder's offense is both outside and inside, which is really difficult to resist.
However, the Thunder have let go of their offense. If they can't score, it would be unreasonable.
What determines the direction of the game is not only offense, but also defense.
The Heat don't know how to defend, will the Thunder do it..."
On the court, Wade still holds the ball, and Bosh pulls up to the high post.
"Wade broke through with the ball, and Su Bei was blocked by Bosh again.
Hey, Wade broke through halfway and actually chose to give the basketball to Bosh.
What the hell?
Bosh didn't play either. The ball was passed to the other side of the ball and was in the hands of James who cut through.
Harden defends James?
How to defend this?
James went in and got the basketball easily, but Collison was pulled out, and it was Westbrook protecting the basket. The Thunder used this defensive arrangement to test the offense of the Heat's Big Three. Who can't withstand such a test...
…”
Bang-dang——!
James got to the basket, dunked like a tomahawk, and blasted the basketball into the basket.
24 to 7!
The point difference became 17 points!
At this time, James, maybe, maybe, probably, whoever he hits is out of position, and he really has no chance of winning!
Off the court, Scott Brooks remained unmoved.
When attacking, it is impossible to give up the attack.
I have no choice but to let the bullets fly for a while longer.
However, the Thunder's next attack made him despair.
"Westbrook is here again!
After resting for a while, maybe he thought he could do it again.
Dribbling the ball through Haslem, reaching the penalty area, quickly pulling the ball for a layup..."
Bang-dang——!
The iron is deflected.
The Thunder's offensive firepower failed to continue.
Su Bei tried his best to get rid of James' defense, but was blocked by his teammates.
Looking back, Su Bei and Harden switched defenses, Su Bei guarded James, and Harden guarded Wade.
As a result, it still didn't work.
If James doesn't take action, it's Wade who will take action, traveling at the wrong time!
It was a pick-and-roll tactic again, Wade got rid of Harden, and Mi Zongbu went crazy with his breakthrough.
"After breaking through to the end, Wade shot from the basket, and there it was.
The Thunder didn't protect the rim, couldn't help defend, and couldn't stop James and Wade from taking turns attacking.
Not to mention, there is Bosh who is willing to play support, provide cover and support, and create a triangle offensive situation. What can you use to top it up..."
26 to 17!
Instead, the point difference widened to 19 points!
This is what the Thunder want to see when they attack aggressively and the Heat take advantage of their lead to play defensive counterattack.
When you are unable to attack and defend, the point difference will become wider and wider.
However, the Thunder cannot stop yet and can only continue on the same path as Huashan.
Miraculously, the Thunder still didn't replace Westbrook, who shot 0-for-6.
Moreover, the Heat started to guard against the Thunder's three-point grabbing tactics.
As the most reliable point, Su Bei was taken care of by James, and the Thunder provided cover. Whether it was Bosh, Haslem, or even Battier, they could switch defenses unlimitedly, and they were not afraid of switching defenses.
Su Bei is invisible again.
At this time, the Heat's defense is too strong and they are not afraid of the so-called five small lineups.
Their lineup, rounded up, is also five small lineups.
The players are all swing players, and what they are good at is defense.
However, the Thunder's ability to organize and pass is mediocre.
Billups' passing ability cannot be fully utilized in the Thunder's blind and chaotic tactical system.
In addition, Durant, a big killer, is resting on the court, and his defensive energy is directed at Su Bei.
"Su Bei is on the outside and has no chance to make a move.
But the Thunder's breakthrough was still very sharp."
With his seventh breakthrough layup, Westbrook finally put the damn basketball into the basket.
You can't score without a breakthrough layup. If it doesn't work, then the second, third, fourth time...
Good guy, it's too difficult to seal the Turtle's score. He has unlimited shooting rights and can always feed a good opportunity.
Harden's breakthrough was also very sharp, with consecutive breakthroughs and layups.
The opportunity in Jiangsu Province was finally found.
The first quarter lasted 25 seconds.
When the Heat's Wade, Bosh, and Battier were replaced one after another.
Su Bei relied on the screen to get rid of James' defense, received Billups' pass, and faced Mike Miller who was changing defense.
Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right side, lift the ball a little, wait for Mike Miller to fly into the sky, Su Bei hits the ball without hesitation, collides with Mike Miller in the air who wants to avoid, and then throws the basketball.
Whoosh——!
I voted for three no-sticks.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
The whistle sounded and Su Bei got the opportunity to go to the free throw line and make three free throws.
Swish——!
Swish——!
Swish——!
Su Bei made all three free throws when faced with the score question.
As James pressed the attack time, he challenged Su Bei and missed a pull-up jump shot. During the Thunder's counterattack, Billups missed a half-court three-pointer and the game ended in the first quarter.
With the score 31 to 18, the Heat turned the tables and took a 13-point lead in the first quarter.
James made 4 of 8 shots, Wade made 3 of 6 shots, Bosh made 1 of 3 shots, and Battier made 2 of 3 three-pointers...
Hong Kong, the Heat's offense is mediocre and quite passable.
But the Thunder couldn't stand a chance, and there were too many old sixes in the lineup, so it's not surprising that they fell behind.
Westbrook played all the time in the first quarter, making 1 of 7 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 3 points, 1 assist, and 2 rebounds.
Yin Baka and Perkins were both 0-for-3.
Durant went 1 for 3.
Thanks to Su Bei's 1 of 2 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, 6 points scored, and Harden's performance of 3 of 4, the Thunder's score was not so ugly.
