Spoelstra thought very well, consuming Curry and focusing on the four-way, just to prevent Curry from scoring easily.
How Deng Fang treats James, Spoelstra treats Curry!
The only difference is that it is difficult for James to get as good a one-on-one opportunity as Curry!
Curry's off-ball threat is too great. As long as Curry runs and his teammates cover Curry, the Heat have no choice but to switch defenses.
That's why Curry got the chance to challenge James Jones and Mike Miller!
So the Heat can only use fouls to prevent Curry from scoring.
There is a reason why Spoelstra dared to do this.
The difference between Curry and James is that Curry is thin and weak in confrontation, and he is also prone to injuries.
This is also Curry's only weakness.
Spoelstra just wanted to consume Curry's physical energy, even at the cost of fouls.
But Deng Fang didn't care.
Curry's physical fitness is very good. He only played more than 20 minutes in each game before!
Even in the last game, Curry only played more than 30 minutes.
Even if he is injured, Deng Fang is still there!
Now Deng Fang’s ability value is very sufficient!
Spoelstra also knew how powerful Deng Fang was, but he could only do this.
Other methods will not work, only this trick may work!
Who knows if Deng Fang has any restrictions on treating people?
What if it doesn’t work today!
Who knows if Curry will be intimidated by the Heat's momentum?
He is only a second-year rookie after all!
He still looks very thin, like a primary school student!
It turns out that Spoelstra was wrong!
Curry is not afraid of the Heat's vicious fouls and small moves, but is even more aggressive!
Don’t you want to commit a foul? Then come on!
See who is afraid of who!
Curry didn't say anything, gritted his teeth and rushed in!
Curry stood on the free throw line 8 times in one quarter!
This is at the Oracle Arena, and the referee is quite fair!
What's more, the big score is now 1:0, and the referee will not deliberately favor anyone.
Under Curry's leadership, the Warriors' offense was very aggressive and their scores rose rapidly.
Coupled with the Heat's offensive constipation, the Warriors led by 15 points in one quarter!
Curry scored 12 points in a single quarter and made 8 free throws!
James kept complaining to the referee: We didn't foul!
Curry is diving!
You cannot favor the warriors!
I was fouled too, why didn't you call it?
No matter how James complained, the referee was unmoved.
The referees who can officiate the Finals are all referees who have been in the league for many years and have known James well over the years.
I've never seen a game where James didn't complain!
It wouldn't be James if he didn't complain!
If you don’t take advantage, you will suffer a loss!
If you take advantage of yourself, you will think that you are the one who is most wronged!
For people like James, it's useless for you to care about him. The best way is to ignore him!
The second quarter was substitute time. The Heat once again deployed a one-star lineup, giving James more space.
The Warriors' defensive strategy remains unchanged, still focusing on the foursome and resolutely not giving James a chance to score.
Pass the ball?
Then defend the first point hard and prevent James from assisting!
The Warriors have been practicing this tactic for a long time and are very skilled in it!
However, the Heat's response to the outside shooters was much better.
After all, I saw the Warriors' defense in the last game, and I also did targeted training.
The Heat's lineup has a lot of space on the court, and no matter how hard the Warriors defend, there will always be openings.
I have to say that James is still more suitable for one star.
As long as James is given four reliable shooters, his breakthrough ability will be greatly unleashed.
James' passing was much faster than in the first game, and his teammates also had more time to handle the ball.
If the Warriors defend the first point, pass the ball one more time!
If you pounce again, pass it again!
Human speed can never match the passing speed!
James Jones, Mike Miller and others played very well. The Heat scored three points like rain and the score rose rapidly.
However, under the Warriors' targeted defense, James' data did not change much.
Did his teammates play well? But there was no joy on James' face.
Although most of the credit goes to James? But the data doesn't show it at all!
People watching the game at the scene knew what was going on, but no one would know in a few days!
How did James fight?
It all depends on the good performance of teammates to hold on to the score!
It's okay if you win the game, but what if you lose?
In that case, you will definitely be the one to take the blame!
Besides? We want to hit the position of the first person in history!
How can we compete for the first place in history without data!
The championship seems out of reach. If you want to be the first in history, you can only rely on data!
…
The Heat's offense is good? The Warriors have more firepower!
The Heat have a pure offensive lineup. Mike Bibby, James Jones and Mike Miller are all defensive black holes, and Bosh's defense is not very good either!
Since you want my emperor to brush up the data? All I have to do is give up defense!
Spoelstra doesn't have any good options.
The offensive power of the Warriors' bench is already very strong? Now they encounter such a lineup that only attacks but does not defend? Lowry and others are like sharks smelling blood? Crazy offense!
Three-pointer, dunk? Dunk, another three-pointer!
The Heat score a lot, the Warriors score faster!
In 5 minutes, the Warriors made 6 fast-break counterattacks!
The point difference continues to widen!
In desperation, Spoelstra had to call a timeout.
After the timeout, the Heat replaced several starting players: Wade, Chalmers, and Haslem.
Although the offense is good, it is not good without defense!
In order to win, James can only endure it for the time being.
The Warriors are still playing off the bench, except that Laga Bell is replaced by Kirilenko.
The Warriors' defensive strategy remains unchanged, which is to defend James to the death!
Wade can also throw two three-pointers, but James can't even shoot three-pointers without someone interfering with him!
Don’t even think about breakthroughs!
Keep an eye on the Four Links and get going!
Just pass the ball and pounce on the first point, strategically leaving Wade open!
The Heat's defense has improved a lot since becoming the starter, but their offensive fluency has also deteriorated a lot.
Fortunately, Wade's breakthrough is still a threat. The Warriors' defense against him is not as tight as that against James. Wade can still score through breakthroughs.
Wade in 2011 is still at the end of his peak, and his strength is no worse than James!
Even stronger!
Relying on defense, the Heat slowly narrowed the point difference.
The Warriors' bench offensive firepower is strong, but it's still lagging behind the top three.
Fortunately, Lowry's five-man defense was excellent and did not give the Heat many easy scoring opportunities.
Soon, the second quarter was over and the score became 65:51, with the Warriors leading by 14 points.
James played two full quarters and only scored 5 points, all from free throws!
Fortunately, James also grabbed 8 rebounds and sent 3 assists.
However, James also made 5 turnovers.
Today the Warriors paid great attention to James' second offense and did not give James a chance to grab the frontcourt board.
As long as James is under the basket, two people will come up to grab rebounds with him!
If James grabs a rebound in the frontcourt, he will foul hard and not give him a chance to score easily!
In order to open up space for James, Bosh also played two full quarters. He made 5 of 11 shots and scored 12 points and 6 rebounds in the half. He was the Heat's best performer.
Wade took the most shots and was second only to Bosh in scoring. He scored 11 points in the half and also sent out 4 assists.
Curry scored 12 points in a single quarter and had 7 assists.
Under Curry's teamwork, the Warriors blossomed more, with four players scoring in double figures in the first half.
Lopez scored the most points for the Warriors. He made 4 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 14 points.
Soon, the halftime break ended and the second half of the game began.
The Warriors still started the game, but the Heat started directly with Haslem, replacing Joel Anthony.
Haslem at least has a mid-range shot, which is a bigger threat on the offensive end than Joel Anthony.
The Heat's defensive strategy remains unchanged, they still flank Curry!
Spoelstra has chosen the path of flanking. He would rather be beaten to death by the Warriors than let Curry score!
In addition, the Heat further increased the intensity of the game and made their moves bigger and bigger!
Especially James, who is the most ruthless!
Curry broke through, James stole the ball, and slapped Curry on the hand. Curry screamed in pain!
Kirilenko tried to dunk on an alley-oop, but James slapped Kirilenko on the head, knocking Kirilenko to the ground!
The referee called James a foul, and James jumped up anxiously!
I didn't commit a foul!
I am a golfer!
I touched the ball first!
Curry came out without the ball to catch the ball and shoot. James on the side rushed to block the shot and quietly put his feet under Curry!
Curry stepped on James' foot and fell to the ground.
The referee called James a foul again, but James was still full of anger!
I did not do it on purpose!
I'm on defense normally!
It was Curry who committed a foul and stretched his foot forward!
…
Led by James, the Heat were very aggressive on the defensive end, and Curry kept falling to the ground.
Although other Warriors also fell to the ground, Curry was the one targeted by the Heat!
Who made you thin?
Who made you the boss of the Warriors?
Who makes you the most powerful?
If you don't do it, who will do it?
Fortunately, Curry didn't have any fear. After falling down, he stood up immediately and continued to work!
The Heat put all their defensive focus on Curry, and the rest of the Warriors also got a lot of shooting opportunities.
Three-pointers, breakthroughs, dunks, fast break counterattacks, the Warriors are on the offensive!
Although the Heat's defense was good, their offense was constipated, allowing the Warriors to grab several long rebounds and launch a fast break counterattack.
Offense and defense are integrated. If the defense is not good, it will drag down the offense. If the offense is not good, it will be difficult to defend well.
The point difference is getting wider and wider, and Curry's assist numbers are also rising sharply.
Although the Heat's defensive strategy is the same as that of the Warriors, the threats of Curry and James are still different.
James is not a big threat without the ball in his hands, and he is even less of a threat standing on the outside.
Movement without the ball?
This does not exist for James!
But Curry is different!
Curry is a big threat with the ball, but not a small threat without the ball!
In order to defend Curry, the Heat attacked more resolutely, leaving more space for the Warriors players.
In addition, the Warriors have better space on the court.
Prince, Tucker, Kirilenko and Lopez can all shoot three-pointers, unlike the Heat, Wade and James who can't shoot three-pointers.
Haslem just can't shoot three-pointers!
Therefore, when James' ball came out, the Warriors dared to defend the first point decisively, but the Heat were not so decisive.
Curry wants to double attack, but Curry doesn't dare to attack too aggressively when passing the ball!
Of course, the Warriors have so much space on the court that it won't be easy for the Heat to save it.
The Heat have done a good job of limiting Curry's scoring, and it's difficult for Curry to score in positional battles except for breaking through and causing damage.
Curry's only chance to score is a fast break counterattack, and his only three-pointer was also scored on a fast break.
However, Spoelstra still underestimated Curry's passing ability. Curry led the team forward with his passing.
I don’t know if it’s the benefit of playing at home, but Prince’s four players felt hot, hitting three-pointers one after another!
Soon, the third quarter was over and the score became 102:79, with the Warriors leading by 23 points!
Curry once again sent out 7 assists in a single quarter, scoring a total of 9 points in sports games and free throws, and 3 rebounds!
Of course, Curry also gained the right to rest on the ground several times...
James once again played the entire third quarter, but he only scored 2 points, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers, and no assists in this quarter.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the Heat's Big Three continued to fight on the court, while the Warriors put on substitutes.
This is also where Deng Fang’s confidence lies!
You have three giants, but which one of them can win?
If one is missing, your strength will be greatly reduced!
We are different, there is not much difference between the starting lineup and the substitutes!
So the main force can get more rest time!
Even if you are the Big Three, you should rest when you should!
If you don’t rest all the time, the effect on the field will definitely not be very good!
The Warriors replaced Lowry, Azubuike, Laga Bell, Hayward and Kirilenko.
After these people came up, they began to switch defenses endlessly, and they attacked James crazily, once again increasing the defensive intensity.
The Warriors' defensive end was airtight, and coupled with the loss of three-point touches from Mike Miller and others, the Heat fell into a scoring drought that lasted four minutes.
The Warriors used a 12-0 run to directly open the point difference to 35 points!
The game also lost its suspense.
Wade and Bosh stayed on the court for more than two minutes, and the point difference did not change. They had no choice but to foul and go off to rest.
James is different. He still stays on the court and wants to continue to score points.
You guys used that perverted defensive strategy to defend me for the entire game, and now it's garbage time. You should let me score some points, right?
The score for garbage time is also a score!
The data brushed during garbage time is also data!
Unexpectedly, the Warriors' substitutes were merciless and still defended James very tightly, not giving James any chance to score!
James is desperate!
Deng Fang, I really belong to you!
Let's see!
After playing for more than 2 minutes, James did not score a point and only grabbed 1 rebound.
In desperation, James took the initiative to foul and went straight to the locker room!
Still haven’t said hello to my teammates!
The first player in the league asked to leave again!
Once James left, the game became much more harmonious!
The game ended quickly, and the final score was fixed at 143:101. The Warriors won by 42 points!
