"6:0, Sickle's defense and passing are too critical! Although he didn't choose to fight against LeBron today, the Knicks today were more relaxed and relaxed, and had a clear idea, and did not go against James and went up.
.It seems that after losing to the Miami Heat a few days ago, Sickle has also made a lot of preparations for this game!”
James shook his head. The Knicks were both excellent on both offense and defense! Many people say that the team led by D'Antoni only knows how to attack and not defend, but this season the Knicks' outside line is called a solid wall!
The most important thing is that as long as Lian Dao is there, the Knicks' outside line will not lose its deterrence on the offensive end!
In the following few rounds, the Heat still struggled very hard.
A few minutes later, the score reached 16:7, and the Knicks continued to lead.
Wade played well in the Knicks before, but he had no chance to be defended by Tony Allen; not to mention James, James, who has not yet evolved and mature in technology, has a terrible shooting percentage against Lian Dao's defense.
The Miami Heat's 7 points were all from Bosh. Millsap's height has once again become a weak point in the face of Bosh's flexible attack.
The cheers at the American Airlines Center Arena ranged from the deafening moment before the opening to the faint cheer after the opening, and now the whole audience is silent.
The confidence of Miami fans is being slapped little by little.
Many Miami fans shook their heads about the Heat's performance. They probably regret spending hundreds or thousands of dollars to buy such an unworthy ticket! After all, walking out of the players' passage is a luxury bar, big one
If you spend hundreds of dollars in a bar, it is happier than buying a ticket!
Seeing the score gap moving towards double digits, the Heat's Filipino head coach Eric Spoelstra called a timeout.
He fell into a passive position in the first quarter of the game, which Spoelstra never expected.
"Don't be surprised when you see D'Antoni's team causing trouble for opponents through defense! If you have so many defensive players under your command, believe me, you can also become a defensive master among coaches!
"Jeff Van Gundy is so envious of D'Antoni, why don't he have so many talented players when he coaches?
"The Knicks' defense has indeed caused great trouble for the Heat! The Heat's attacking under the Knicks' defense is particularly difficult. The most important thing is that they often run away in the Knicks' defensive counterattack. Perhaps, before the game begins
The Heat underestimate the Knicks, who have the first record in the league, too much."
Mike Bryn was right. The Heat didn't take the Knicks seriously before the game. Not only James, but also Wade and Bosh did not take the Knicks seriously.
At this time, D'Antoni also changed his usual offensive style. The tactics he arranged for the players were.
"Continue to strengthen the defense and don't give them a chance to breathe!"
D'Antoni used a comprehensive offensive tactic in his previous game against the Heat, but it turned out to be a crushing defeat.
Although D'Antoni is an offensive coach, he is not as arrogant as a maniac.
When reviewing the game later, Lian Dao also put forward his own ideas. This time D'Antoni did not insist on his own offense first. He knew that the Knicks would definitely not go far without Lian Dao, because in the game against the Cavaliers,
Lian Dao took off the turn, and the Knicks lost to the Eastern Conference.
After that, the Knicks fell into media doubts.
However, the loss to the Cavaliers also made D'Antoni understand that if the Knicks had no Lian Dao, their best result would probably be the first round of the playoffs.
This is obviously not satisfactory for D'Antoni, who is eager to prove his coaching skills in the championship, so he began to compromise with the defense psychologically.
Of course, it is better to say that he compromised with the championship than to compromise with the defense.
And recently, defensive coach Mike Woodson has had a lot better life.
When the goals are consistent, all contradictions will naturally disappear.
After returning from the timeout, the Heat made its first attack.
James used a counterattack to add his teammate's pick-and-roll without the ball to get rid of Lian Dao's defense. Then Wade threw it to the inside just right, and James jumped into the inside and dunked the ball.
This is the first time that Zhan Wei made a connection in this game.
The fans of the Heat at the scene immediately got up and cheered. Everyone, including the head coach of the Heat, thought that this would be the beginning of the Heat's counterattack.
However, the pace of the game did not move in the direction that American Airlines Center fans hoped.
After that, under the Knicks' oppressive defense, the Heat once again fell into a vicious circle of mistakes.
The Heat knew that there were not many opportunities on the outside, so they were given the ball to the inside.
Bosh held the ball with his back, but this time the player defended him was not Millsap, but Cousins. Bosh did not pay attention to this rookie, and still used the method of playing Millsap to deal with Cousins.
As a result, when he turned around, the basketball was directly cut off by Cousins.
After that, Bosh's two consecutive attacks were restricted by Cousins, who had a flexible movement and his physical talent.
James had no choice but to force his breakthrough to Lian Dao again, but was stealing by Lian Dao in the confrontation.
Wade had a second connection with James, but was leapt high by Lian Dao, who had suffered a loss, and intercepted the ball from the air to pass.
Zhan Wei's connection was destroyed again!
Lian Dao, who has successively destroyed the Heat's offense, has become a thorn in the eyes of American Airlines Center Heat fans.
After some operation, the Knicks exceeded everyone's expectations and led the Heat by 14 points at 32:18!
The whole game fell into a dead silence again. Miami fans could never imagine that the Heat could easily defeat the Knicks away before, so why would they be restricted so badly after coming to home?
They really don't know it's the Heat's problem, and the Knicks' strength has increased significantly in a short period of time.
Especially Wade, who performed well in the previous game, did not score a single point in this game at the end of the first quarter.
Not only that, under Tony Allen's defense, he actually got three mistakes in the first quarter.
James was still very restricted by Lian Dao in this game. So far, he has only made 2 of 5 shots, scored 4 points, and made two mistakes.
The only one who performed well was Dragon King Bosh, who scored 11 points and 4 rebounds in the first quarter.
After returning from the first quarter, he only hit a goal under Cousins' defense, two of which were caused by Cousins' foul on a layup and got the free throw.
On the other hand, Lian Dao scored 12 points, 3 assists, 3 rebounds and 3 steals in the first quarter, one of which was from James and two from Wade's passes.
It can be said that in the data comparison of the first quarter, Lian Dao simply exploded James.
Now, the fans of the American Airlines Center have completely awakened. The Knicks' previous loss was really an accident. The Knicks' performance today may be their true strength.
"Farke, what a hell, the Celtics actually gave their No. 42 (Tony Allen's jersey number in the Celtics) to the New Yorker for free!" Wade couldn't help but scream after the game. He was in the first quarter.
It was very embarrassed to be defended by Tony Allen.
The most important thing is that he missed the ball under Tony Allen's defense, but he made consecutive mistakes.
This time, James and Wade didn't feel that Tony Allen was an unknown person. Before, Tony Allen could only play as Ray Allen's substitute, even if James and Wade's teams were with the Green in the season
When Jun met, he rarely went with Tony Allen.
So, they don’t know that Tony Allen’s defensive strength is also normal.
"Restore your physical fitness well, we may be in trouble!" James patted Wade on the shoulder.
Although the Heat are behind, James does not question Wade's ability. He also trusts Wade very much. If he doesn't trust Wade, he should have chosen Chicago instead of Miami.
The 14-point difference is actually not very big. Wade believes that after adapting to Tony Allen's defensive strength in the first quarter, he should improve in the second quarter.
But at this moment, a text message Anthony sent him yesterday flashed through Wade's mind.
