Chapter 1359 Birdman
"Shet!"
The game had just started, and there was an injury, and Erik Spoelstra cursed.
He glanced at Li Ba angrily, feeling extremely helpless.
This lunatic, he hasn't played many games, do you want to find some backs?
He waved to the bench and called up Birdman Chris Anderson.
This is a forward who came back from the Chinese Basketball League. He bounces well and plays hard. He must compete for the first ball and the first rebound. He has excellent blocking ability. It is said that he has practiced fly-catching training
At this time, the team doctor checked Favors and said to Eric Spoelstra: "Eric, he has a neck muscle strain, and he can't play this game."
"Damn!"
Eric Spoelstra cursed irritably.
4:6, the Suns lead at home, and the Heat attack.
The same tactics, James point guard, so that Li Ba can be attracted, and then Wade responds from the outside, and the three forwards rush in to grab rebounds.
"James, go double-team Wade." Li Ba shouted loudly while retreating.
Harden immediately pounced on Wade, and Hill implemented an early double-team.
With Drummond at the basket, plus Jimmy Butler, two people deal with the Heat's three forwards.
As long as the ball is passed in, the Heat can form an advantage of playing more and less at the basket.
James sees it, everyone sees it.
Similarly, Li Ba is of course very clear, so what he has to do is to prevent James from passing the ball in, let the ball die in his hands, and prevent the other four Heat from getting the ball.
When James played Li Ba in singles, the pressure came up immediately, because he never took advantage of Li Ba in singles, but was taken advantage of by Li Ba.
He approached the top of the arc, knowing that Li Ba's defense was full of initiative, so he suddenly made a breakthrough movement, trying to shake Li Ba back, and then pass or shoot.
But his prediction was wrong, and Li Ba didn't retreat at all.
Why didn't Li Ba retreat?
He is not out of his mind, there are five people piled up in the paint area, what is James doing in rushing in?James can only shoot or pass from the outside, and there is no breakthrough space, so no matter how real James' breakthrough action is, his first reaction is to hold himself down.
James made a false attack, but this time he didn't sway Li Ba back. Because he didn't keep up with the follow-up force, he stopped at the latter's side, and the ball was a little out of control, and even strictly speaking, he was a little walking.
At this time, Li Ba moved, turned around, and intercepted the ball behind James. He grabbed the ball that was out of control with one hand, and then turned around and played quickly.
"Beautiful, the hammer breaks the ball quickly, and no one in the Heat can keep up with his fast break...the tomahawk-style dunk!" Yu Jia roared excitedly.
4:8, the Suns lead.
The Heat attacked again.
Wade was watched by Harden and Hill again, the Suns played two-on-three under the basket, and James singled Li Ba again.
"Come out and do a pick-and-roll!" Coach Erik Spoelstra shouted from the sidelines.
Marvin Williams ran out immediately.
Li Ba "saw" someone coming up from behind, and he observed that James was waiting for the pick-and-roll, so when the person behind was about to be in place and was still one step away, he suddenly implemented a close press on James.
At this time, seeing that the pick-and-roll was approaching, James' attention was distracted. He was preparing for the next move. He didn't expect Li Ba to post him at this time.
Yu Jia roared excitedly: "Mistake, lost the ball, the Hammer steals James again, he is going down fast, he rushed into the top of the arc..."
Li Ba held the ball and pushed forward crazily. With the blessing of speed, explosive power and weight, he formed a powerful impact.
James took a step behind Li Ba and gradually caught up.
But at this time, Li Ba stepped into the paint area, holding the ball in his left hand, and flying up with James in his right hand.
"boom!"
With a heavy dunk with one arm, the moment he hit the basket, the entire backboard was blown and shattered.
"yeah!"
The audience stood up and cheered for the goal.
"Yeah yeah..."
Guoguo jumped up and cheered endlessly.
"The super heavy dunk from Hammer, the god of basketball, smashed the backboard of the Heat!" Barkley yelled wildly.
"Hoho..."
After the baseline, James was panting. On the floor in front of him stood Li Ba, with a pile of broken glass below.
The reporters next to them frantically pressed the shutter in their hands to freeze this moment.
At 4:10, the Suns took the lead and the game entered a timeout.
When Li Ba left the field, everyone in the front row stood up and applauded him in celebration.
The two teams returned to the bench, the atmosphere was completely opposite, and the morale of the Heat was extremely low.
Injured one, swallowed another three consecutive blocks, the rebound was smashed again, and the successive blows caused the pressure in the hearts of all Heat players to explode tenfold, including James and Wade, and even felt a kind of panic in their hearts.
"Champion! Champion! Champion..."
At this time, thousands of Phoenix fans present began to shout, and then Li Ba's fans began to join them. The entire American West Arena was boiling, and the atmosphere of the home court reached its limit.
Three and 10 minutes later, the rebound was replaced and the game restarted.
The two sides did not change the lineup, the Heat attacked, and James advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.
The Heat want to revive morale, and the only way to revive morale is to slam dunk and return one.
Therefore, the Heat changed their offensive tactics, replacing the crowd tactics with breakout and pick-and-roll tactics.
Playing the point-breaking tactics, Millsap, Marvin Williams, and Chris Anderson must all pull the air, clearing the paint area of the Suns for the breakthrough of James and Wade.
However, the Heat's lineup has a weakness in scoring tactics, that is, Birdman Anderson can only live in the paint area. Eighty percent of his offense is at the basket, and he rarely shoots close to the basket. There is no threat to pull out.
At the same time, Millsap and Marvin Williams' three-pointers are not very good. Even if they can pull it out, they can't pull it very far.
But you can still fight.
Birdman came up to pick and roll for James, Millsap and Marvin Williams pulled left and right, and the Suns' basket was still empty.
But Drummond and Butler were not pulled far, just on the edge of the paint area, as long as Wade or James break through, they can shrink back to the basket.
At this time, Millsap pulled directly to the right-wing three-point line and made a pick-and-roll for Wade.
His three-point shooting rate this season is 33.3%, with an average of 0.5 shots per game, but he has a 42% shooting rate for two-pointers from far away, with an average of 2.3 shots per game. He and Wade will do the pick-and-roll, so it’s not just doing it. The wall, after pulling it away, can stay near the three-point line and attract the Suns' defense.
But Birdman Anderson is just a simple wall. After taking it apart, he can only go down, and at the same time bring the Suns' defense into the paint area, instead of staying outside to attract defense.
