586: It's not your place

"The Flash Returns".

This was the headline of the ESPN column the day after the game.

There is no doubt that Wade's performance of 32 points yesterday made the whole country go crazy.

After being silent for so long, Wade finally became the brightest star on the field.

"The Federal Express Arena is not a place that any team can conquer. However, Wade did. He gave Link and Jimmy well. Butler taught everyone what it means to be a true champion. ”

"Wade is playing very well, and he's leading the Heat to fight back."

Next, the Grizzlies will face three consecutive road trips. If they don't make it to Game 7, home advantage won't be reflected. What else can be said? Good luck to them. ”

Overnight, the tide was turned around. When Wade and Bosh played like giants, no one thought the Heat would lose.

And the Grizzlies' first home loss in a series since last season's playoffs is undoubtedly big news.

Oklahoma City Thunder and Kevin. What Durant didn't do, the Heat and Wade did.

The 85-point win by the Big Three further fulfilled James's words, "As long as I can stick together, nothing can stop us." ”

Link looked at the news and felt very uncomfortable. The expected next game was 3-0 to get the match point, but the result turned out to be a 1-1 draw now.

But for the Grizzlies, they're not all bad news. For example, Iguodala, who has had a long break, is finally coming back.

"Andre, we need you to start in the next game, how are you doing?" On the training court, Grizzlies defensive coach Dave . Joggle had been watching Iguodala.

After all, Iguodala hasn't played for so long, and it's the first time in his career that he's playing in the finals, so the coaching staff is still very concerned about his condition.

"I feel good and ready to play high-intensity fights. It's just a sprain, Dave, out of the way. Iguodala waved his hand with the trademark friendly smile on his face.

"Don't worry, Andre has been hungry and thirsty for a long time." Link also joined in the conversation between the two, and was full of confidence in Iguodala.

After all, in the original history, Iguodala was the man who won the FMVP. In the finals, Iguodala has never been relentless.

"Hehe, but then again, in the next game, I don't know how the coach will arrange the lineup. Do you think we'll play a small lineup? Iguodala stopped shooting and touched his chin.

In yesterday's game, the Grizzlies lost because of the lack of response to the Heat's small lineup. In this era, many teams have begun to try to play small lineups, but in the face of the Grizzlies with black and white bears, most small lineups are asking for their own hardships.

But the Heat are different, and James can be said to be comfortable playing the No. 4 position. His resolute defensive attitude and excellent physical attributes make him completely unfazed against the number four muscleman.

What's more, Randolph is not yet a strong No. 4 in the true sense of the word. More often than not, Randolph relies on skill to win.

The Heat's small lineup can be said to have completely restrained the Grizzlies' regular lineup. Once the pace is fast, the black and white bears can't keep up, and the whole system of the grizzly bears will be messed up.

"No one knows if it's going to change formations, and Zach is still very useful on the offensive end. Whether or not to remove Zach was a very difficult decision. But that's not what you have to think about, it's how you have to keep yourself. Keep it up, although the last loss was a bit ugly. Soon, though, we'll have a chance for revenge. ”

Jogger tapped them on the shoulder and turned to head over to the head coach's office. Now, the coaching staff is also discussing the lineup......

Link went home early in the evening, and during the finals, Link canceled all of his training plans.

In the few days of playing the series, to be honest, even if you practice late at night every day, the improvement will not be too obvious. After all, getting promoted is a long process. No one can suddenly become a superstar after a few days of hard work.

Therefore, instead of staying and practicing during the finals, it is better to rest enough and save your physical fitness for the official competition.

As soon as Link came home and collapsed on the couch, his mind kept flashing back to the images of yesterday's game.

The smooth cooperation of James and Wade has been played out again and again in Link's mind.

The Grizzlies couldn't defend yesterday, and their offense wasn't as smooth as anyone else. Randolph is completely lost, although the Heat play a small lineup, but in such a fast-paced and undominant situation, Randolph can not take advantage of even a small lineup.

It has to be said that small balls are really a trend. Even if the Grizzlies have two big inside lines, they are weak in this trend.

The Heat knew that they didn't have an advantage on the inside, so they simply didn't do anything and just removed the inside. Who knows, the effect is actually quite good.

At this moment, Link's mobile phone suddenly rang, startling Link.

When a person is extremely focused on something, any bit of wind and grass is a distraction for him.

Link picked up his phone, thinking it was Rachel. But on the caller ID, it's Dave. Jogle's name.

Link pouted, Jogger wouldn't tell himself to do a new tactical drill at night......

"Hey, Dave."

"Hello, Link, I hope it didn't disturb your rest." Joggle is a good fit, although he is a coach, but Dave. Joggle is the kind of "coach of the players". He has a good relationship with the players and often mingles with everyone.

"Of course not, say it, Dave."

"Hmm...... We just had a tactical meeting and discussed a lot of options. Eventually, we decided. In the next game, you have to play the number four position and play against LeBron. This could be a whole new test for you, Link. I'm calling to inform you of this, and I hope you're mentally prepared. ”

After receiving Jogger's notification, Link found that he was not surprised at all.

In the era of small ball, it is the norm for the No. 3 position to go to the No. 4 position. Under Hollins before, Link hadn't done this kind of thing. Of course, only once or twice a while.

"I see, Dave. Don't worry, whether it's a number four or a three, I'll be up to it. Link clenched his fist, at the American Airlines Center, the grizzly bear, who has always been very retro, is finally going to start to change?

What would the Grizzlies' small lineup look like? Does it work? These will directly determine the fate of the Grizzlies Finals.

※※※

Wade was in a much better mood today, scoring 32 points in a single game, and the Heat broke the myth of the Grizzlies' undefeated home game. Undoubtedly, this made Wade raise his eyebrows.

The next three games will be held at the American Airlines Center in Miami. It is not impossible for the Heat to take advantage of this advantage to win the championship directly with a wave of three consecutive wins.

This summer, it is destined to also be ruled by the Miami Heat.

So Wade posted a classic image of him standing on the tech table celebrating the victory on his social media, followed by the most iconic phrase of his career, "This is my house, we can't lose." ”

But he was in a good mood and couldn't have imagined that he had just finished tweeting for a few minutes, and he would actually receive Kobe. Bryant's phone.

"How's your recovery going?" Wade certainly knows what Kobe Bryant's situation is now, and the picture of Kobe in tears in the locker room after the Achilles tendon rupture is still fresh in everyone's memory.

"Not good, Dwayne. This injury...... Well, you know, it's hard. "Kobe Bryant has nothing to hide, and he and Wade have a good relationship privately.

"What? Are you wishing me the best of luck in advance? Wade quickly got away with it, and now his mind was full of championship things.

"I would have liked you to win, but Link probably won't say yes. That's why I called you, that kid just asked me for your phone number. I just want to ask, do you agree? Kobe Bryant on the other end of the line laughed.

"Link wants my phone number?" Wade also smiled, this kid is interesting, "What do you want my phone number?" ”

"God knows what he's going to do, no one knows what that kid will do next."

"Give it to him, I want to keep a Link private number too. The guy ...... It's actually quite impressive. I've wanted to talk to him privately, really. Wade didn't think about it, so he agreed to Kobe.

Five minutes after hanging up, Wade received a text message from an unfamiliar number.

As soon as you look at the content, you know that it must have been sent by Link.

"The American Airlines Center isn't your territory, it's everyone's territory. After all, you've lost 10 games at home this season. By the way, tomorrow, it will be the 11th game. ”

Wade pouted, Link was such a bastard.
