Chapter 165 The Shark's Sacrifice

Chapter 165 The Shark's Sacrifice

Bang!

A loud bang detonated the entire American Airlines Center.

Wade dunks a big center like Mihm, what a fucking bug!

Mim was even knocked out of the bottom line, if he was not strong enough, he would definitely be overturned.

Ye Heping looked at this scene, smiled wryly and shook his head, this is an absolute talent.

Regardless of Ye Heping's basketball talent tree, his talent has been greatly enhanced, but compared to guys like Wade, it's not worth mentioning at all.

Speaking of the ball just now, if Ye Heping played like Wade, Ye Heping would definitely suffer a loss, and he might be hit by a meme and fractured.

For Wade, it is a routine operation to accelerate into the inside and dunk.

2: 0.

"De Huai Huai Huai... Wynn Wade!"

The home DJ yelled Wade's name wildly, and the Miami fans were also detonated. This ball was too hot.

The Lakers attack.

Kobe hit Wade with the ball, and Damon came directly to double-team, very determined.

It seems that Fan Shuai has long been prepared, after all, Kobe has been in good form recently.

Kobe had a bad chance and gave the ball to Atkins who was emptied.

But Damon Jones rushed back at the first time, the speed was extremely fast, and it gave enough interference.

Atkins missed the shot under interference.

O'Neal stuck Mihm and easily accepted the backcourt rebound.

The Heat attacked again.

The whole team is not in a hurry or impatient, and moves forward slowly.

O'Neal fell to the penultimate, and Wade followed behind O'Neal with the ball.

When he reached the three-point line, Kobe immediately summoned Mim to come out to defend together, and he couldn't repeat the mistakes of the previous round.

But at this moment, O'Neal suddenly turned sideways and blocked Kobe. The quality of this pick-and-roll was really high enough to explode.

Kobe was completely blocked, and had to be replaced by Mihm's big defense, but how could Mihm's footsteps keep up with Wade?

Wade first decelerates and then accelerates the rhythm change dribble, easily breaking through Mihm.

This time, Ye Heping's supplementary defense was in place.

But Wade didn't bother with Ye Heping, and walked directly to the side to attract the attention of the defense, and then suddenly stretched out his hand to hang the basketball to the basket.

I don't know when, O'Neal cut in, caught the basketball and dunked directly.

Bang!

4: 0.

In the two rounds, the two cores of the Heat ended with dunks. The American Airlines Center reached its climax at the beginning. The excitement of the Miami fans can no longer be described in words.

The Heat really want to avenge the last game and bloodbath the Lakers.

"Shaq said the Heat found a way to win, and it looks like they did."

"In the last game, Shark and Flash were one plus one less than two, but now it seems that one plus one is greater than two."

"And it's all done with a simple pick-and-roll!"

The commentary booth is discussing the changes of the Heat.

What the commentator can discover, the Lakers can naturally discover too.

Three minutes into the opening game, the Heat had O'Neal pick and roll Wade on the offensive end, and Kobe was resolutely double-teamed on the defensive end. Coupled with the poor feel of the others, the Heat played a perfect start.

11:4, the start has already led by 7 points.

Lakers acting coach Frank called a timeout and replaced Mihm with veteran Grant.

Although Grant is old, he is a short center after all, and his speed will be faster than Mihm, and it will not be so disadvantageous to switch to Wade.

This defense is targeted.

But Kobe looked serious and looked very uncomfortable.

Ye Heping quietly asked, "Boss, what's the matter?"

Kobe said: "You know I've been teammates with O'Neal for many years."

"Of course!"

Ye Heping nodded, no one knows the OK combination.

"But O'Neal is lazy and afraid of trouble, you know? When we were teammates, he almost never came out to do pick-and-rolls for me!"

Kobe said.

Hearing this at first, Ye Heping thought that Kobe was complaining that O'Neill loved the new and hated the old, and treated Wade better than him, just like a woman's jealousy.

But shaking his head and thinking about it, Ye Heping quickly drove this thought out of his mind.

What Kobe said was a terrible thing.

"For this victory, I'm even willing to sacrifice something!"

O'Neal said it before the game, and he's doing it.

What did he sacrifice?

He has never been willing to come out to pick and roll, so he does it frequently!

He gave up the opportunity to attack with the ball and gave Wade all the balls to organize the offense.

This is why the combination of Shark and Flash is suddenly so powerful.

But there will always be incompatibility between two ball-holding super giants, and someone needs to make sacrifices at this time.

O'Neal is doing this. In order to win and defeat Kobe, he is willing to give up his possession of the ball and do pick-and-rolls that he doesn't like.

In the last game, when the two were present at the same time, one plus one was less than two, but now, they are already equal to two, or even greater than two.

The game continued, O'Neal continued to pick and roll for Wade, the old Grant switched to defend Wade, the effect was really good, and he was able to keep up with Wade.

Wade broke through to no avail and was driven out of the two-point area.

The Lakers took advantage of the situation to switch defenses, Kobe defended Wade again, and Grant returned to the basket.

Off the court, Coach Frank clenched his fist excitedly. It seemed that his adjustment worked well.

But at this moment, Wade suddenly gave the ball to the basket.

O'Neal caught the basketball, leaned back against the old Grant, turned back and pushed Grant away completely, and then scored with an easy layup.

Coach Frank's face suddenly collapsed.

This substitution did prevent Wade, but let go of the behemoth O'Neal under the basket.

Although Mihm's defense against O'Neal also suffers, it can still play a role anyway.

The old Grant's current state is completely unable to stand up to O'Neal, and it can even be said that his defense against O'Neal is useless.

Subsequently, Coach Frank made several adjustments, but the effect has not been good.

After the first quarter, at 23:13, the Heat have already led by 10 points, completely in the rhythm of a massacre.

Coach Frank is a veteran assistant coach. He has worked in the ABA and NBA for 35 years, but in these 35 years, he has only served as the head coach twice, and the coaches were suddenly unable to coach and the team let him act as the agent.

One was with the Milwaukee Bucks in the 91-92 season, and the other was this season.

Facts have proved that he is really not suitable to be a head coach, with 23 wins and 42 losses in the first time, 10 wins and 29 losses in the second time, and the total winning percentage is only 31.7%.

He is a very good assistant coach, but he is really not capable enough to be a head coach. You can't expect him to command the team like a champion coach like Tang Shuai.

In the first few games, the Lakers had an advantage, and there was almost no crisis, so Frank's problem was not discovered.

But today, the Lakers were completely suppressed by the Heat at the beginning, and the head coach urgently needed on-the-spot command and adjustments, which exposed Frank's ability problems clearly.

And from today until the end of this season, the Lakers can only rely on Frank to lead the team. The situation is really not optimistic.
