Chapter 752 Range is Victory
Li Tian led the whole team to his teammates in Orlando and flew back to New York overnight. They will next face the Heat at home.
The Heat, which has been strengthened again during the offseason, has already surpassed the Knicks in record this season.
Chandler pays more attention to defense. He will not take away the ball from the Big Three, but can also help the Big Three to defend.
The current starting lineup of the Heat only needs to add a point guard. Of course, it is more of a tool man. Both Wade and James can handle the ball and attract defense. There is no problem in dominating the ball. Strengthen Chandler Absolutely a perfect match.
"Boss, what's going on?" Seeing Li Tian's serious face, Beverly asked curiously.
They rarely saw such an expression from their boss, and it aroused Beverly's curiosity, which is why they asked such a question.
"It's okay, it's just that today we are going to play against the full version of the Heat. They are really strong this season."
He is not the kind of blind and arrogant guy, and the opponent is powerful, so he has to admit that there is no need to hide it.
The Heat's current record has reached 29 wins and 3 losses, which is not terrible. If it is placed in a normal season and the schedule is not so intensive, the record may be even better.
"Yes, but, boss, they won because they faced someone else, not us, otherwise..." Beverly said with a smile.
"Why, mad dog, you can analyze it." Seeing Beverly's confident face, it is really good to let him analyze it.
"Hey, boss, look at the matchup between us and them. Yao, needless to say, can definitely beat Chandler. We have Yao in the positional battle, and Jordan in the fast break. Don't worry about the center position at all; Yi and Bo What's the point? Needless to say? There's no need to worry about the bald head.
Boss, you and James are facing each other, do you still need to worry?
Mr. Tony is facing Wade, the offense may be worse, but Mr. Tony is very good at defending.
Lowry is against Chalmers, and I believe Lowry is definitely the stronger one. "
After Beverly's analysis, it seems that the starting lineup is really the case, and the Knicks are stronger, but the game is not just based on strength on paper, otherwise it can be just based on strength, why bother to play a real game.
"Not bad, very good, your analysis is very good." Li Tian smiled, Beverly's analysis is indeed good.
Looking at the bench lineup again, the Knicks are definitely winning. Among the Heat lineup, Battier is the strongest one. Looking at Haslem and Miller, both are people who continue to fight for the championship.
"Li, don't worry about this at all. Let's discuss how to deal with this game." D'Antoni greeted everyone and discussed the tactical arrangements for the evening game.
Half an hour later, the tactical discussion was over.
"How? But, Li really decided to play like this?" Although D'Antoni wanted to try such a tactic, he didn't want to expose it too early.
"The regular season is used to test the lineup. The Heat are just a good whetstone, and the tactics must be honed."
Li Tian nodded and said, tactics can't be trained all the time, without actual combat tactics, it's all nonsense.
"Okay, let's do it." D'Antoni said with a smile.
******
"MVP! MVP! MVP!" The fans shouted frantically.
"Lee, you are the best, get rid of the Heat, you are the god of New York." The fans shouted.
The passion of the fans has a lot to do with who the opponent is. The most obvious manifestation is the ticket price. The ticket price for this game is already double the usual price.
Enjoying the cheers of the fans and high-fiving the fans in the player tunnel, the fans seemed even more excited.
Heat starting: Chalmers, Wade, James, Bosh, Chandler.
Seeing such a lineup, even in a 2K game, you can't form such a lineup. Of course, if he can be on a team with four players, then the team needs a scout with a perspective eye to have a chance to form such a lineup. lineup.
Since joining the Knicks, Ah Lian has become the team's exclusive jump ball player. Dayao has never played a jump ball since he came to the Knicks.
Chandler's height is not short, but the jumping has long been not as good as before, the UAE won the jump ball and gave the ball to Lowry.
Starting to organize the offense, Lowry directed his teammates to move, Yao Ming and Chandler fought on the inside, and Li Tian also fought on the outside with James.
Every physical contact is a heavy body collision, and those Hollywood stars sitting on the sidelines all have painful faces.
"Lee, do you feel that the Heat are very strong?" James began to show off the strength of the team.
"No, the Knicks will only win." Ignoring the chattering James, he continued to run without the ball.
Every time you run, you need some changes in direction to get rid of James' pursuit.
Lowry ignored Chalmers' defense and gave the ball to Yao who was stuck inside. Chandler's strength was still too weak.
Bosh tried to assist the defense several times in a row, but Dayao pretended to pass the ball, so he had to return to defend the UAE again.
Dayao used his footsteps to easily get rid of Chandler's defense. Although the weight of Dayao has decreased, his speed has increased a lot.
"Damn, how is he so fast?" Chandler looked in disbelief.
"Defend and defend!"
The shouts of the fans have also become short and hasty. The best proof is to call for defense at the beginning of the game.
Looking back, James called Bosh's pick-and-roll, wanted to single the UAE, tried several times to break through, and finally had to give up. The power breakthrough he usually relies on for survival, in the UAE, the effect is not so obvious.
Seeing that no suitable shooting space was found, Dayao was still sitting under the basket, but had no choice but to distribute the ball to Wade on the outside to reorganize the offense.
"Huo Huo, the Knicks are full of fighting spirit today. I don't know if the new Heat can beat the Knicks again." Barkley felt his eyes light up when he saw the Knicks' performance in the opening game.
I remember that in the last match between the two teams, the Knicks didn't play so smoothly at the beginning.
Wade took a butterfly step. Of course, he didn't dare to take an extra step, because he didn't have that kind of treatment.
Accelerating towards the basket and breaking through, when he came to a position near the penalty area, Wade chose to make an emergency stop and take a mid-range shot. Yao's deterrence at the basket was too strong. The game had just started, and Wade didn't dare to court death.
"Bump bump!" The basketball bounced a few times before falling into the basket.
The two teams started off well. The Knicks, who were leading in the first quarter, were played early by James in the second quarter. They played a wave of 8:2, and the Heat completed their overtake.
53:49 The Knicks ended the first half, 4 points behind the Heat.
The players of the two teams put more emphasis on the defensive end, which affects the efficiency of the offensive end.
Before the start of the second half.
"Li, are you sure you want to play like that? The risk is not small." D'Antoni was still a little uneasy. After all, playing like this went against his understanding and cognition of basketball.
"Let's fight. If you lose, you lose. This is just a regular season." He nodded heavily, indicating that it would be good to play just one game.
"Okay, Yi, you must run the ball well."
He looked at A Lian and said.
"No problem, coach." Ah Lian also wants to prove himself that offense is not all about him.
At the beginning of the second half, after Lowry dribbled the ball across the half, he handed the ball to A Lian who was standing outside the three-point line. Yao was under the basket, and the others settled on both sides.
Spoelstra was stunned, what was he going to do, and Bosh was the same, he didn't know whether he should go out to defend, or continue to stay inside to guard!
"Shua!" Ah Lian hit a three-pointer!
Seeing this scene, Li Tian suddenly felt that he could paddle in the regular season. With so many helpers around him, paddling should not be impossible.
53:52 The Knicks are just one point behind.
"Bastard, where's your defense?" Spoelstra yelled at Bosh from the sidelines. Bosh could only scratch his head in embarrassment. That was one step away from the three-point line. Who would have thought that he would throw a three-pointer at that position.
Ah Lian hit a three-pointer, which is somewhat lucky. No one is in good defense and can only hit a three-pointer.
"Damn it, you shameless guy, you actually made a sneak attack." Bosh was scolded by Spoel, and his mood turned bad instantly.
"You son of a bitch, if you don't let go, you're blaming me?" I ignored Bosh, a brain-dead guy.
James was outside the three-point line and wanted to return one, but was interfered by Li Tian's oppressive defense and hit the iron with a three-pointer.
Ah Lian, who grabbed the rebound, handed it to Lowry to advance quickly. Without waiting for Dayao, Lowry passed back to Li Tian, who had just passed halftime.
Raising your hand is a crazy long three-pointer. It really feels like it can be thrown anywhere.
"Wow, that's great. I haven't seen Li Chaoyuan take a three-pointer for a long time. I wonder if this will become his regular weapon." Barkley said expectantly.
In the past, he hated three-pointers very much, but every time he saw Li Tian still made three-pointers, he was so comfortable.
"It's really scary, the Knicks, is it going to expand their offensive range to another half?" Miller was a little surprised. As a veteran three-point shooter, he could understand that such a far How difficult it is to shoot a three-pointer from a distance.
53:55 The Knicks lead by 2 points.
After scoring two consecutive three-pointers, Spoelstra began to think about the current defensive lineup on the field.It is very difficult to defend the Knicks shooter, the most important point is that even Yao Ming can hit the three-point line!
Although the All-Star Game was an exhibition game, Dayao actually hit a few three-pointers.
"How should I defend?" Spoelstra asked several assistant coaches around him. Facing such a three-point team, he really didn't know how to defend, because he had never seen it before.
While Spoelstra was discussing with the assistant coach, James' offensive rhythm was also taken away by the Knicks. The cooperation in the first half was gone, and instead he began to shoot three-pointers frantically.
It's a pity that after a few rounds, James realized that his three-pointers seemed to be far behind his opponent.
"James, not everyone is me, and not every team is the Knicks. You have to understand that 'range wins'!" After hitting a three-pointer, Li Tian threw a word to James.
"Damn it, why, why is the Knicks able to recruit so many three-point shooters, even Yi and Yao have such good three-point ability." James regretted this, but he returned to normal in an instant, and now He can't have a bad performance in the game.
Watching the three-pointers hit one after another, the fans in New York were bursting with happiness and cheering louder and louder.
"Yi, it smells great!" The fans shouted loudly. It's no wonder if it doesn't smell good. He can throw three-pointers, defend, and control the ball. 1000 million is definitely a big profit.
"Damn it, are these managements all idiots?" Wall was also very angry. He disagreed with the release of Ah Lian at the time. Compared with the Wizards, his current performance is absolutely different.
I remember that at that time, the United Arab Emirates threw a three-pointer, and instead of being praised, it was directly substituted and sat on the bench.
"Yes, this is the ultimate goal of the future of basketball. 'Range is victory', this can definitely change the future of the league, but where is my future?" Cole, who was far away in Phoenix, saw this game, and his inner thoughts The small universe also began to loosen.
"Shua!" Teacher Tony scored another three-pointer, directly stopping the Heat.
"The Knicks played a wave of 15:2 and completely overtook the point difference. The Heat's offensive rhythm was completely taken away. They have been affected by the Knicks. Unfortunately, their three-point ability is too poor." Barkley said.
"Children, you are really great!" D'Antoni and every player who came down celebrated by high-fiving. If this tactic is combined with his 7-second offense, then in the future
Just thinking about it makes D'Antoni feel a little excited, but looking at Yao Ming's weight and Jordan's three-pointer feel, let's forget it in the end and see if there is a chance to find a suitable person in the future.
Even after the timeout ended, the Heat still failed to stop the Knicks' three-point team. They thought it was a battle between dragons and tigers, but who knows, in the end, the Heat only supported half of the game, and they would simply wither in the second half.
Under the three-point frenzy of the Knicks, a wave took away the game. 98:113 Knicks won a full 15 points. If Battier who came off the bench threw a few three-pointers, the Heat would only lose more .
"It's unbelievable. The Knicks don't have much offense at the basket in this game. If they can win, if" Miller became emotional, it turned out that he was right to persist for so long. It's a pity that in that era , is not yet accepted.
The media also reported heavily on this game.
"The Knicks beat the Heat lightly, the strongest team, it will collapse at one touch!"
"Range wins, and the Knicks exemplify that very well."
"The terrible Knicks, all three-pointers shot, and they shot the Heat to death."
Many media have also begun to analyze the root cause of the Heat's loss.
ESPN wrote, "The Heat lost not because they didn't play well enough, but because they lost their original rhythm. This is the most important reason why they lost the game. Sometimes, we must learn to persevere!"
Throughout the second half, the Heat's offensive rhythm was led by the nose by the Knicks, and it was so difficult to win.
"Damn it, it's another three. It's not the first time."
James is very depressed. He didn’t feel good today. Li Tian just grasped this point and left him empty most of the time outside the three-point line. Even so, he was 7-of-1 outside the three-point line. The shooting rate is really touching. .
"Damn it, get the hell out of here and go back to Miami, everyone has to practice three-pointers." Spoelstra roared on the plane.
Chandler looked aggrieved, how could he be so unlucky.
