26, big win

There is a reason why the league scheduled the showdown between the Warriors and Heat at this time.

After the Heat's disastrous defeat in the finals last season, the morale of the team was disorganized and people's hearts were floating. There will definitely be adjustments to the team's lineup, and it will take time to boost morale.

The Warriors are different. They have just won three consecutive championships and have a strong team. Based on the principle that championship teams do not make adjustments, the Warriors should not make any moves.

There are no moves, which means there is no need to break in, and you will be able to achieve a good record from the beginning of the season.

It's unfair to the Heat to let a newly adjusted team challenge the defending champion.

By the second half of the season, the Heat had completed the adjustments they needed to make, and most people had forgotten about last season's loss in the Finals. It was more appropriate for the two teams to start a war at this time.

That's why the alliance placed this duel at this time.

Unsurprisingly, the Heat started very well and were very active on both offense and defense.

On the offensive end, James holds the ball, and the four shooters are scattered outside the three-point line. The court space is huge, which is very conducive to James' breakthrough.

On the defensive end, Spoelstra adopted the method of leaving Barnes open, resolutely flanking Curry, and not giving the Splash Brothers a chance.

Barnes has performed well in recent games, but what about before?

There were three previous games where the performance was very poor!

After all, Barnes is still a rookie!

Betting on whether Barnes can make a shot is the best way for the Heat to win, and it is also the only way!

History has proven that the Splash Brothers are reliable, Yao Ming has no problem fighting tough battles, and even Hayward has the potential to become a star!

The only breakthrough is Barnes!

It's not because you are weak, but because your teammates are too strong!

Of course, there is another reason why Spoelstra dared to do this, and that is because he has confidence in his team's offense.

The Heat are shooting three-pointers very well this season. Whether it is the new arrivals Ray Allen and Lewis, the previous Chalmers, Battier, or even James, the three-pointers in the regular season have reached a career high——

40.6%!

You know, this was unimaginable before!

God, James can shoot 40% of his three-pointers!

It is for this reason that Spoelstra dared to bet that Barnes would not score!

There is a high probability that you are abnormal. Even if you are not abnormal, our three-pointers are no worse than yours!

In the final analysis, if you want to win against the Warriors, you must not only perform exceptionally but also hope that the Warriors will be abnormal.

There is no way, their overall strength is much stronger than yours, the only way to win is to gamble!

Deng Fang had already expected this, but he did not remind Barnes.

Some things still need to be experienced by oneself in order to improve.

He didn't give me a chance in the regular season and always protected him well. When it came to the finals, I couldn't blame him for having stage fright.

Barnes is in Deng Fang's long-term plan and must be well cultivated.

Spoelstra was lucky, he made the right bet!

Barnes didn't expect that there would be a team betting that he couldn't make a shot, so he immediately hesitated after the wide open space appeared.

It's okay to say that against other teams, losing is not a big deal. Our opponent now is the Heat!

This game can be said to be a preview of the finals!

Moreover, I have made very accurate shots in the past few games, and there are actually teams betting on me that I can't make a shot!

Is my shooting really bad?

Were the previous games just an illusion?

this……

People who are humble and low-key tend to fall into self-doubt more easily, and generally speaking, their self-confidence is not that strong.

There are very few people who are humble and low-key but also have extremely strong self-confidence!

Once you doubt yourself, you will hesitate to shoot. Once you hesitate, your shooting percentage will drop!

The first one doesn't score, and the next one will be even more hesitant...

The Heat let go of Barnes, and he failed to make several shots in a row!

If the offense fails, the defense will become impatient.

If the offense is not good and the defensive end is not good, will the head coach take the starting position?

If you can't make a shot, you must be tougher on the defensive end. It's best to give James a few big blocks!

It's good to be tough, but it's not enough to be passionate on the court.

Playing basketball requires your brain, especially defending top players!

Two consecutive times, Barnes was shaken by James and was fouled.

As a result, the Heat had a 15:5 spurt, successfully widening the point difference to more than 10 points!

The Warriors had the ball, Curry looked at Deng Fang, and Deng Fang signaled that the game should continue without calling a timeout.

At most, it means losing a game. What a big deal!

It's better than the abnormal performance in the finals!

With a big lead, the Heat's morale is even higher and they are working very hard on both offense and defense.

Shorting Barnes means that the Heat have five defenses and four defenses, and the Splash Brothers, Yao Ming and others have no chance to make a shot.

Barnes still felt bad, and the point difference continued to widen.

The Warriors could only rely on Curry's sudden attack and Yao Ming's hard attack inside to score points. Since the Heat's attack was very determined, the efficiency was not high.

Soon, at the end of the first quarter, the score became 37:21, with the Heat leading by 16 points.

When the players took a break, Deng Fang high-fived Barnes, patted him on the shoulder, and just said: Keep shooting!

It’s useless to say anything else, everything depends on actual actions!

No matter how much you encourage the other side, if the other side can't make a shot, then he will be replaced, and they will not have confidence!

In addition, players must go through what they have to experience, especially painful experiences, the sooner the better.

In the second quarter, the Warriors put on a full bench lineup. James continued to play on the Heat's side, and Wade, Mike Miller, Lewis and Haslem came on.

This lineup isn't great defensively, but it has a lot of experience and can still compete with the Warriors' bench lineup.

The Heat's offense was good, the Warriors' defense was strong, and the two teams launched a physical battle.

At halftime, the point difference remained unchanged, still 16 points.

Deng Fang was very satisfied with this.

Although the point difference remains unchanged, James and others have used up a lot of energy!

The game started quickly in the third quarter. The Heat's starting lineup remained unchanged, and their defensive strategy was also the same. They continued to let Barnes go.

As soon as Barnes came up, there were two big open shots, but he didn't make any shots.

The Heat counterattacked with two consecutive fast breaks, and the point difference quickly widened to more than 20 points!

A. Smith on the sidelines began to shout: "I'm just buying cakes, but Deng Fang didn't even replace Barnes! He's crazy!"

Barkley was also puzzled and asked: "Yes, Barnes performed so poorly, why do you still let him stay on the court? Is Deng Fang suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"

"He is only in his twenties!" A Smith shouted: "He is not suffering from Alzheimer's disease, but from juvenile dementia!"

Buckley burst out laughing.

Seeing that the home team was leading by a big score, the fans at the American Airlines Arena became excited and cheered for the home team together, with cheers resounding throughout the arena.

The Warriors had the ball, and Curry looked at Deng Fang again.

Deng Fang still did not call a timeout, but waved his hand to indicate that the game should continue.
