The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 307: Die you with the depth of the lineup

James' speed is very fast, but compared to the speed, his power after the start is more terrifying.

In today's league, there are few players who can handle James' breakthrough. Leonard can't, George can't, even the stronger Green can't.

When facing a breakthrough like James, what Leonard can do is to cling to James, squeezing it towards the weak side a little bit, and at the same time using his long wingspan advantage to continuously interfere with James' dribble and interrupt his Rhythm.

Although this kind of defensive method cannot stop James from scoring inside, he can consume his physical strength to the maximum, because when James rushes into the inside, he is not only facing Leonard alone, it is likely to also face To the inside players who come up for defense.

At the start of the game, James had plenty of energy and no problems, so he carried Leonard's layup and scored.

3:2.

The ball returned to the Wizards. The Wizards still played Thompson. After using the running position to open some gaps, Thompson made two shots from the free throw line.

The score becomes 5:2.

James used Bosh to pick and roll off Leonard's defense, while using Whiteside to pass the supplementary defense, rushing into the inside dunk score.

5:4.

On the Wizards side, Curry finally found a chance to take a three-pointer while Wade fell off.

8:4.

James returned to Bosh after a pick and roll, and the latter took advantage of his height to make a jumper in the middle.

8:6.

...

The offensive efficiency of both teams was very high at the beginning, and the score was also increasing steadily and steadily.

Wang Xiao was not in a hurry. Although the situation was frozen, the rhythm of the two teams on the court was very different.

One side is completely relying on James to maintain the offensive rhythm, while the other side is more blooming, each player can use tactics to easily score.

There was no gap at the beginning, but as the game progressed, the players' energy consumption increased and the gap came out.

James can't stand it even if it's iron.

The Heat's Spoelstra obviously noticed this, so when the game was about 8 minutes, taking the opportunity of a dead ball, he replaced James and took a break to let Wade and Bosh continue. On the court.

But there is one thing to say, although Wade and Bosh are also very strong, they are inferior to James, especially Wade. When they were still at their peak a few years ago, they might still be able to compete with James. However, now Wade is suffering from a knee injury and no longer has the speed to survive. In the face of Thompson, a stronger shooting guard defense than him, it is difficult to maintain efficient offensive efficiency .

Of course, this is not to say that Wade is completely impossible. Even at this stage, Wade can still contribute 20+ points to the team steadily, but he can only do so.

While Wade devoted a lot of energy to defend Curry, he also had to score under Thompson's defense. The pressure was far greater than that of Thompson who often faced Chalmers' defense.

Even so, Wade can achieve the offensive efficiency without losing Thompson.

The problem is that the Wizards are not Thompson's own team, and even he can only be counted as the team's third scoring point.

auzw.com James can use two fists to fight against the four hands, but the Flash that had the invincible speed that year was no longer possible.

Within minutes of James’ end, the Wizards’ offensive rhythm immediately overwhelmed the Heat. Curry, George, Thompson and others scored one after another, while the Heat’s side could only rely on Wade and Bosh’s pick-and-roll tactics. Mid-range shots are much less efficient.

Less than two minutes later, Spoelstra had to put James on the court, because if this continues, the score difference will expand to more than double digits!

James rested in less than two minutes, and then debuted again.

At the same time, Wang Xiao also made substitution adjustments.

...

Whiteside looked at Green who was eager to try on the edge of the technical table, and then looked at the assistant coach who beckoned him to be signaled that he was replaced. Somewhat unhappy.

His performance in this game was very good, not only well protected the backcourt rebounds, but also grabbed 2 offensive rebounds, and even gave James a super hot pot when James hit the rim.

But he was excited, but was replaced.

Green's debut instantly turned the Wizards' roster into five dead, and Wang Xiao is about to start speeding up!

On the court, with Green's debut, the Wizards' offensive speed suddenly increased.

Including Curry Thompson and others, they all rushed towards the frontcourt without turning back after the offensive and defensive conversion.

After a season of familiarization, they have adapted to Green's playing style. After grabbing the rebound, the first-year rookie of the guest center has the ability to dribble through the half, and even he can find a gap in the process. Teammates, pass to form an assist.

When Green dribbled and stood at the top arc of the three-point line after halftime, the remaining four players of the Wizards have already stood in their respective positions. There is no need to brew at all, and the tactical running has already begun!

The ultra-fast offensive rhythm made the Heat unprepared, even if they had seen the Wizards’ five fatalities in the regular season more than once, and the five Heat players on the court at this time were also the most dynamic in the team. , But still can't keep up with the rhythm.

"Green passed the ball to Thompson, who caught the ball pretending to take a shot to attract the defense, and then continued to pass the ball to Curry. The Wade defense in front of Curry was half empty! Curry shot! Three points! Hit— —!”

In the loud cheers of the audience, Curry made a solid three-pointer.

...

At the end of the first quarter, the scores of the two teams were 34:26, and the Wizards led by 8 points.

"Guys, doing a good job, the second quarter continued to play steadily and control the situation."

During the timeout, Wang Xiao vigorously praised the performance of the players, and at the same time said to Leonard: "Kai Huai, you have a very good defense against James in the first quarter, I am very satisfied, you rest for a while in the second quarter, let Green has one, and you need to deal with James afterwards."

...

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Wizards took the lead in replacing the game. Thompson and Leonard were replaced with a break. Jamison and Whiteside replaced.

The Wizards' lineup changes, and it's almost a big change.

Curry still served as the point guard, George was directly mentioned as the shooting guard from power forward, Green was the small forward, Jamison was the power forward, and Whiteside continued to be the center.

This lineup is obviously not comparable to the previous in terms of speed and offensive firepower, but it is a lot stronger than the previous team. In the face of the Heat, this team that does not have a "high" inside height also has certain advantages.

Now Wang Xiao basically shows that I am going to play you with the depth of the lineup!
