Chapter 174 Something Big Has Happened!

Ginobili holds the ball outside.

He and Parker made a cross-screen run, and Ginobili caught up to Damon.

He was unceremonious and started directly, relying on his speed to overwhelm Damon.

Li Lei and Haslem quickly encircled Ginobili.

Parker did the same thing at the beginning, falling directly into the trap of the Heat.

Now Ginobili is at it again.

The Heat will naturally not be polite.

But just before Li Lei and Haslem encircled, Ginobili accelerated for the second time, and rushed out from between Li Lei and Haslem like a slippery loach.

Subsequently, Ginobili pulled up and shot.

Swish!
19: 12.

"This guy!"

Li Lei looked at Ginobili, then turned to Haslem and said, "Udonis, help defend more decisively."

Haslem nodded.

next round.

The Spurs are still Ginobili's main attack here.

This guy doesn't play fancy things, he just continues to stare at Damon.

Li Lei and Haslem's help defense this time was ahead of schedule and closed the door to death.

Don't let Ginobili slip out.

As a result, Ginobili has quick eyes and quick hands, and he stopped slipping and passed the ball.

Because Haslem's help defense has an advance amount, Rasu is open.

Rasu, who was open, received the ball and shot directly.

Swish!
and also.

In this way, Ginobili attacked by himself while connecting his teammates, reinvigorating the Spurs' offense.

And the most difficult thing about Ginobili to defend is that he doesn't talk about routines.

Both Duncan and Parker have a fixed style of play.

Ginobili did not.

He has the ball in his hand, does whatever he wants, doesn't talk about tactics, directs his teammates impromptu, or passes or bursts or shoots.

The Spurs' offense is on track.

Fortunately, the Heat also feel good here.

End of first quarter, 25:19.

The Heat lead by 6 points.

During the substitute stage, O'Neal and Li Lei all rested, and Wade was not there. The Heat's substitute lineup was very weak.

No way, Li Lei only rested for 3 minutes and played early.

In this way, the two teams stalemate through the second and third quarters.

After three quarters, 60:58.

The Heat still lead.

But in the fourth quarter, the role players on the Heat's side really declined.

Popovich won the bet.

In the end, 77:82.

The Heat lost this strong matchup, with a total record of 5 wins and 1 loss.

本场比赛，李磊拿到了17分6篮板8助攻3抢断1盖帽。

8 assists broke Li Lei's record, it was a career night.

But a losing career night is meaningless.

O'Neal had 22 points, 16 rebounds and 2 blocks, but unfortunately he was powerless.

For the Spurs, Manu Ginobili scored a game-high 28 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.

Duncan had 18 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists.

Parker had 14 points and 5 assists.

In the press conference after the game, Pat Riley was quite happy: "You should be able to see that the team is producing a chemical reaction. We are beginning to really integrate!"

He was talking about the pick-and-roll tactics of O'Neill and Li Lei.

O'Neal was willing to come out to pick and roll, which quickly produced a chemical reaction between the two.

This is the biggest gain for the Heat tonight.

Pat Riley also hinted: O'Neal is no longer the invincible No.1 in the league. He should know how to let go of his pride and cooperate with his teammates more, instead of stubbornly staying at the basket and relying on his own ability to dominate.

As for whether O'Neill can understand it, that's another matter.

……

In this way, the two-week game was over.

ESPN, which likes to rank the most, lists the favorites to win the championship based on the performance of each team.

First, the San Antonio Spurs.

4 wins and 1 loss so far.

With Duncan as the core, Ginobili and Parker have grown further.

The Spurs' main lineup has hardly changed, and there is no need to run in.

And they also added two giants, Big Dog and Brent Barry.

Second, the Detroit Pistons.

3 wins and 2 loss so far.

The Pistons retained the Five Tigers lineup and signed former All-Star center Antonio McDyess.

Third, the Mavericks.

5 wins and 1 losses.

Nowitzki grew further.

The rise of Howard and Daniels.

Dampier, Harris, and Terry strengthen the No. [-] and No. [-] positions.

Joining Jerry Stackhouse.

Coupled with Michael Finley, the simplified version of Jordan, the Mavericks' starlight is not as good as last season, but the lineup is more reasonable.

Fourth, the Indiana Pacers.

4 wins and 2 losses.

The Pacers retained most of their main players and acquired a powerful perimeter player, Stephen Jackson.

O'Neal + Artest + Jackson.

The Pacers' front line is a bug.

Fifth, the Miami Heat.

5 wins and 1 losses.

O'Neal + Wade + Jones.

This combination gives people unlimited fantasy.

But you can see that O'Neal is indeed not as good as the previous two years.

Wade was injured again at the beginning of the season and failed to get rid of the attributes of the glass man.

In addition, their [-]st position has obvious flaws, and the depth of the bench is also very insufficient.

Sixth, the Los Angeles Lakers.

5 wins and 2 losses.

Los Angeles lost O'Neal, but they got the All-Star Odom, the best sixth man Caron Butler, and two inside veterans Cato + Grant.

This is almost the main force of more than half of the Heat last season.

The Los Angeles "Heat" should not be underestimated.

Seventh, the Orlando Magic.

4 wins and 1 losses.

McGrady + Hill + Dwight Howard + Juwan Howard + Hedo Turkoglu + Stevenson.

希尔的状态相当不错，5场比赛场均能得到19.7+4.7+3.3+1.4。

No. 12 pick Howard can also score 10+[-].

Turkoglu 14+3.5+2.3.

Huo Ershu 9.6+5.7.

McGrady finally has enough help.

He had never fought such a rich battle in his life.

Eighth, the Seattle SuperSonics.

5 wins and 1 losses.

Ray Allen + Rashard Lewis + Radmanovich + Ridnor + Antonio Daniels.

The Sonics are not well-known, but their strength is not small.

Ninth, the Denver Nuggets.

3 wins and 3 losses.

Inside: Martin + Camby + Nene.

Outside: Anthony + Andre Miller.

Denver's "air-catch team" is ready to go.

After that, the Timberwolves, Suns, and Kings all have good combat power.

……

Of course, this kind of thing is just for fun.

Last season, everyone said that the Lakers would win, but they were not picked up by the Pistons in the end.

Lists like ESPN are used to attract fans' saliva.

After facing the Mavericks and Spurs in a row, the Heat ushered in a relatively easy schedule.

Won the Bucks (main), Timberwolves, Bucks (guest), and Jazz four games in a row.

The Heat's record reached 9 wins and 1 loss, thriving and leading the league.

11 month 20 day.

The Heat didn't play.

After the team practiced, the players went back to their homes.

In the evening, Li Lei was talking on the phone in his room, talking to Li's father and Li's mother.

Haslem barged in.

"Stone, something serious happened!"

Haslem yelled.
