Center first

Chapter 345
Chaotic game, chaotic rhythm, fans who often watch the Magic team will find that after the third quarter, the Magic team completely lost their own rhythm. A group of big guys they are most proud of, facing When a group of lunatics from Miami panicked completely, they were more passive than when they faced the Celtics behind. This is still at their home court, and they are still facing a bunch of substitutes. Damn it , What is this going on, is this still the Magic, what the hell is this fucking game playing.

81:76, this is the score on the field after more than three minutes of the third quarter. The Magic are still behind, and they have changed from being behind by one point to five points. The guys are the absolute main force, and they couldn't eat the Heat team without Lin Yi in one bite. This made Van Gundy's roar resounded in every corner of the entire Amway Arena, but this didn't seem to change their passive attitude on the court at all. situation, the Magic are still suppressed by a group of Heat substitutes.

The Magic are not passive, they can always score, but at the same time, they can't prevent every attack of the Miami Heat. When they just scored two points and have not started to retreat, the opponent has already killed In his own half, the gust-like speed almost caused everyone to collapse, and the repeated lightning strikes tormented the nerves of the Magic fans.

Without Lin Yi, it was supposed to be a period of time when the Magic absolutely controlled the situation on the field, but now they seem to have nothing to control, everything on the field is out of their control, all they have Every step he takes is being led by the nose by the opponent, and every attacking step is stopped by the opponent in advance. What the hell kind of game is this? Almost every Amway Arena fan is cursing like this.

No one wants to see their team tortured by their opponents with a group of substitutes. You must know that they have just defeated the defending champions. Now their goal is to return to the stage of the Finals again after 13 years, but now they find themselves Faced with such a crippled team, the current team seems helpless. Is this the Magic team that has just reversed the Celtics and the Hulk?Is this still the top three Magic team in the Eastern Conference?

You know, even in the regular season when facing the Heat's absolute main players, the Magic have never been so passive. They even once controlled the rhythm of the game in the Heat's American Airlines Arena, but Lin Yi's appearance , let that game end up being one of the reasons for the Magic's loss, but is there anything else to say now?All the opponent's main players are already sitting on the bench, and even only one of them can play on the court, but it is this kind of Miami Heat that has caused the biggest trouble for the Magic.

Lin Yi's outburst has already made Orlando people feel scared, but now that guy is quietly staying on the bench, but his team seems to have suddenly lost the rhythm that survived in the first two quarters. The team's offense and defense seemed so chaotic, and even the basic formation could not be maintained.

Pat Riley remembers what Lin Yi said, punching people to death, NND, since my subordinates have no absolute guarantee of scoring, then I'm still afraid of shit, whoever can score will shoot , Whoever thinks they can shoot and score can shoot directly where you think it is appropriate. Maybe this is no different from chaos, but this arrangement makes even Van Gundy fall into panic.

There are no rules to talk about, and there are no rules to rely on. The Miami Heat use such unstructured attacks to ravage the nerves of the Magic. Van Gundy's roar did not bring any help to these guys. Instead, it made them start. Entering a state of bewilderment, everyone is trying their best to fight, but the result waiting for them is that their own rhythm has become a mess.

But the Miami people have found their own offensive pulse at this time. They have no commanding heights, no breakthrough masters, and nothing to rely on, but at this time they have no scruples, shoot, go. Come on, all rhythms rely on individual performance. This kind of laissez-faire style of play has given the Magic a blow. They have lost the focus of the Miami offensive.

If they still have a defensible target when Lin Yi is on the court, then at this moment, they must always guard against the shots of every Heat player, and even the opponent can prepare for it one step outside the three-point line. Shooting, there is no need for any cover at all, it is a direct shot without hesitation, and then it is to plunge into the inside to grab the rebound.

Five shooters, five rebounders, this is the instruction given to them by Pat Riley, there is no offensive focus, play the offensive ability of each of you, anyone can be the protagonist, what I want is the score, I don't care about you Are you playing according to the arrangement? As long as you can score, that's fine!I don't care about anything else. In the first few minutes of the third quarter, the only time Pat Riley got up was to stand on the sidelines and wave his hand, go!For the rest of the time, he won't care about the way these guys use to attack. As long as you can score, I will definitely not care about how you shoot.

The people who benefit most from this kind of arrangement are the two old fritters in the Miami Heat. They like this kind of chaotic battle mode too much. The unreasonable style of play is their favorite. Look at Bunch Wells How did his big ass and Stackhouse's nerve knife cut the nerves of the Magic team? Those two guys have become the flashpoint of the entire Miami now. Maybe they don't have too many worries, maybe they have completely let go Opened his own firepower, anyway, now every member of the Heat team can use his own hands to prove his worth, Chalmers can also use a standard fake to get rid of the opponent when facing Alston's entanglement defense, and then calmly used a mid-range throw to solve the problem when facing Howard's strong block.

Even novices can behave so calmly, not to mention those battle-tested old guys, Pat Riley's trust is not in vain, he knows what kind of power these guys will explode at the moment of death, especially When you give absolute trust to these characters whose alliances are already on the fringes, they will often repay your trust in a way that makes you unexpected.

Three of four shots, two three-pointers, a mid-range 2+1, plus a foul for Turkoglu, and a dull loss for Howard, this is what Stackhouse handed over. The single may not be gorgeous, but the score of 3 points in [-] minutes has completely disrupted the tactical arrangement of the Magic, especially this crazy knife is very smart, he will always take a cold shot when others are not stable.

In a shooter-type team like the Mavericks, Stackhouse can plunder the statistics of an average of more than ten points in a season. You can imagine the ability of this old knife. He has never lacked the ability to shoot. However, age limits his playing time, but don't forget that he was once considered by many people in this league to be one of Jordan's best successors. In such games, this fanatical scorer suddenly started His own crazy performance, just like what he did in the Mavericks, his firepower has become the absolute driving force for the Miami people to move forward, and has also become the most unpredictable scoring point for the Magic. His erratic and decisive way of shooting, People can't figure it out.

Perhaps only chaotic battles can reflect the value of these old guys with unconventional styles of play. They don't need to play in a regular manner, but let them play their own things. Only in this way will they use all their strength Show them all, look at the two old guys who are playing more and more crazy on the court, they ignited all the passion of the Heat with their crazy running and offense.

In this quarter of the game, the Miami Heat never allowed any attack to exceed 15 seconds. They almost controlled the rhythm of each attack to about [-] seconds. Every fast break opportunity was firmly in their hands. , They didn't have the patience to tear apart the opponent's line of defense by using passing and cutting moves at all. It seemed that every shot seemed a bit reckless, but such reckless shots got into the opponent's basket time and time again, super high The shooting percentage is such that it is destroying the nerves of the Magic.

I don't want to fight any positional battle with you, what I want is a lightning strike, why should I fight the most orthodox head-on with you, I just want to disrupt all your defense systems with this unreasonable offensive method, Lightning shots again and again made the perimeter defense of the entire Magic team seem to be crumbling, not to mention the pressure brought by the home fans, the voice of cheering has weakened, and more voices began to tell them there dissatisfied.

No one will be satisfied with this kind of game, even the tolerant Magic fans can't do this. They thought it was an excellent opportunity to open the score, but now it seems that everything is terribly bad, and their absolute main players How could Amway Arena not be filled with roars of dissatisfaction when being pressed by a group of opponents' substitutes in the embarrassing defense of his half.

Using people less than two meters to carry the inside line, or the main attack, maybe this is a bad idea that only Pat Riley can come up with, but this seemingly insignificant method has produced the best results, especially when the You can't expect Howard to be tough every second when the two big guys in the opponent's post defense are relatively light.

And that reckless stick is definitely not an idiot, just like when he singled out the inside of the Spurs, he can always accurately find the opponent's weakest defense, and he can lean on him and squeeze in Going inside, he will cleverly avoid the deadliest high point, he only needs a time difference, a time difference enough for him to complete the attack.

A guy like Bunch Wells has never been the kind of guy who plays cards by the rules. When he singles out the inside line, he always aims at the spot that Turkoglu is defending. That strong body has already made him The Turks feel a bit overwhelmed. If Lin Yi’s advantage is explosive power, then Bunch Wells represents strength. Although his tendons are not as scary as Howard’s, this short and fat guy can use his a little The despicable little tricks made the Turks not need to worry about whether certain parts of their bodies would be touched by this guy all the time. This kind of confrontation has lost any suspense. One side is brave and the other side resists passively.

Dislocation attack, this is what Pat Riley can come up with when faced with the lack of his own personnel, but now it seems that the super Bunch who was able to blow up the Spurs' inside defense in the Kings did not lose his own Wei Li, that guy is still domineering, he can still use his body as his fiercest weapon, and forcefully plunge directly into the space under the basket guarded by the three big men.

The sudden blowout of the Heat's two old knives made the Magic fall into a panic, especially in the face of an old monster like Stackhouse, this sharp blade who often stands up from the bench can always catch the Magic Every loophole in the team's perimeter defense, after getting the absolute right to fire freely, this almost 35-year-old guy finally let his rusty knife shine again.

Turkoglu?Lewis?Maybe you guys are the best big shooters in the league right now, but as someone who plays in the NBA, you must remember one thing, never underestimate the strength of those old guys, and don’t doubt their knowledge of the details of the game Sensitivity, they will always release some of their greatest performances in certain places, such as the craziest moments like now.

This is how the Magic got dizzy by the unreasonable play of the Heat, and they got caught in the entanglement of each other in the offense, although Pat Riley didn't force these guys to He hit every ball to the end. In addition to his stricter requirements on offense, he was still a bit laissez-faire in defense. After all, their height disadvantage prevented them from having much defensive capital and opponent consumption.

But these crazy guys don't care about the fact that their opponents are more than ten centimeters taller than them. Their full attack pace has not been relaxed because of the opponent's intrusion. No matter who it is, they will not relax their marking Target's pressing defense, everyone puts their arms on the opponent's body, even if it is a foul, it doesn't matter, not to mention that under the leadership of these old guys, they rarely pay the price of fouls and feel pain The most important people can only be the big men of the Magic team. Facing people who are a head lower than themselves, they enjoy the treatment of being hit by their ribs again and again. Those small moves are not eye-catching, but they are enough to make these big guys It's been a long time since I was angry.

Perhaps the only person on the Magic team who performed normally was Howard, who wanted the ball in the paint. If he hadn't been scoring points in the paint, maybe they would have been left behind by double digits in the opening stage of the third quarter. He used his big hands to score points under the opponent's basket time and time again, and only when he asked for the ball on the court was the time when he could release his pressure in the Amway Arena.

However, the misfiring on the outside made the entire scoring point concentrate on the basket. This may be a point that Van Gundy did not estimate before the game, but the current situation on the court can only make him put the main offense on the basket. , Let's fight, let that big monster help the Magic to hold the opponent's running pace.

Howard did not make Van Gundy regret his choice. When facing Magloire's defense, Howard did not hesitate to dunk with both hands. He just wanted to use his strong shoulders to open the way for himself, even if Magloire has already stuck to his body, and he failed to stop the big man's hands from constantly ravaging the Heat's basket, scoring six points in a row. This is the data Howard handed over to the Magic. If If it weren't for him to keep scoring points at the basket, God knows if the Magic will be defeated by a group of substitutes.

But his strength alone is limited after all, especially when all members of the Heat team are engaged in fast breaks, which exhausts Howard's physical strength very quickly. He often does not return to his own half of the defense, and the opponent has completed his own attack mission. , and he has to go to the basket to get a position again at this time. Such physical exertion is also a burden for the strong Howard. Just look at the sweat dripping from the top of his head.

Although Magloire did not cause any trouble to Howard, he could still interfere with Howard's shooting to a certain extent when defending. This guy who had been silent for a long time also began to contribute his strength. Although the help he can provide his teammates is only a few defensive rebounds, it is enough. After all, a big man of more than [-] meters is still a strength that Howard cannot easily ignore, not to mention that the opponent has already begun to make up his mind to fight with himself. If he works hard, he will not easily get any benefits from his opponents. Although he can continue to score, his shooting percentage is only three of six.

Magloire's role is cannon fodder, and Pat Riley's role in putting him on the court is to interfere. As long as it makes the opponent uncomfortable dunk, even a foul is fine. Don't forget that Howard's free throws have never been him His strong point, and Magloire has indeed achieved this, Pat Riley's smug smile has begun to appear on his face, his adventure has succeeded, as before.

Looking at the missed basket, Pat Riley didn't care. To be honest, he let Lin Yi rest on the bench. It works. If the inside and outside lines are lost at the same time, maybe he is the biggest sinner in Miami, but a nerve that is used to taking risks urged him to make such a decision. Now it seems that the effect is not bad, at least their offensive firepower He is more ferocious than when Lin Yi was around. Although his style of play is a bit unorthodox, it doesn’t matter. What he needs is just the result. As for whether you kick the basketball into the basket with your feet, or push it in with your hands, it doesn’t matter. For this old man, there is no difference, he just needs to see the numbers on the scoreboard keep refreshing.

"That group of old guys played really high today, you know, kid, that group of guys were inspired by you, just look at their performance before going on the court, you will know, they know that this game may not necessarily win , but they had to bite the bullet and fight, but your performance in the first half gave them hope. These guys have never liked to admit defeat, and you gave them the courage and motivation to fight on."

Pat Riley turned his head and talked to Lin Yi beside him, the smile on his face was the kind of joy from the bottom of his heart, not because his tactical design was fully implemented, but because he There are such a group of desperate bandits under his hands, good boys, good babies, absolute superstars, maybe these are very attractive things, but Pat Riley is the same as old Chuck, they don't like those, they prefer Those guys who look like ruffians never need any good people on the basketball court. There is a battlefield where you live and die. As long as you can win, I don't care who you are. Want to accept defeat?Damn, then I have to kill you straight away.

However, when Pat Riley turned around, he saw Lin Yi's tightly clenched fist. That guy's eyes were constantly staring at the trajectory of the basketball on the field. Riley suddenly felt At this point, maybe all the beliefs of this group of old guys are because of the little guy's hands clasped together, which gave them a kind of confidence to win.

"Boy, get ready, it's your time to perform later, put on a good show for me, don't let me down, the opponent is already in a mess, so I need your hands to continue to make them panic, completely improve morale Give me a crushing opponent, this is a good chance for us to win, I won't predict the future games, but now you can lead those guys to win, so don't let go of this opportunity."

When Pat Riley was about to make his own substitution choice, Van Gundy was the first to lose his composure. He finally called a timeout at the third minute and 50 seconds of the game. Maybe it was these absolute main players His performance has made this guy unbearable, and he finally wants to change his tactical arrangement.

"A guy who is always behind me, don't think that he can win me at this time, Lin Yi, you can get ready to play, take advantage of this momentum, and completely defeat those guys for me. Victory must belong to Miami, it must belong to the Heat, I said must, there is no room for negotiation."

Pat Riley patted Lin Yi on the shoulder vigorously. At this time, the game time was close to the 4 minutes he expected, which was enough. There were still 10 minutes left, and we still led by [-] points. What we need to do now is to go all out. Destroy the opponent, maintain this desire for victory, and make the opponent completely desperate.

This is the result that the Miami people came to Orlando to take away. It doesn’t matter even if everyone is not optimistic about us. We will find a way to prove them wrong. Don’t worry about how many main players we have lost. I just want to use this The lineup will tear a piece of flesh from you, so that you will always remember this night.

(It seems that the rumors that Space YI is going to change places are not groundless. It is indeed possible, but it depends on how the Suns choose. It is very lively now. The big fish who transferred in the summer have entered the market ahead of time, ha, It will be very lively before the end of February, let's see who is more accurate...)
