Chapter 783: One Against Two
With about four minutes left in the first quarter, the Spurs switched tactics and shifted the focus of the offense from the interior to the outside.
Qin Yan began to hold the ball, of course, his first reaction after holding the ball was to gesture at someone in the Heat.
I've been waiting for so long, so let's officially one-on-one now.
Needless to say, this is James.
James was about to come up and defend when Chalmers suddenly drew a foul on Parker off the ball.
Well? What is this for?
All eyes looked over there, but Chalmers was decisive after a foul and walked to the bench.
Oh, it turned out that Coach Spo was about to make a substitution, but it was too late to call a timeout, so he deliberately fouled!
Chalmers is off, Battier is off, James Jones and Auden are on the court, so Wade is on the point guard position, Jones is going to play point guard, James is still a small forward, Bosh is back on the power forward, Oden is the center, this lineup has suddenly raised the height of the Heat!
Who would dare to say that the Heat don't have a big man lineup? If you want to make it up, you can still make it up.
The Spurs also changed the lineup here, and Maddy came on, anyway, to maintain the height advantage of the point guard.
Then Duncan also went off the court, and Split, who is known as the best guy in post defense, went up to defend Oden on the opposite side.
After all, Auden is also the kind that can't run and jump now, and Split can go up and stand up to him.
Whiteside still followed Bosh, and the two were on the bar anyway today.
As for Jones, his task today is to entangle Leonard on the defensive end, because James must defend against Qin Yan, so the task of watching Leonard is handed over to Jones.
The substitution ended, and the two teams officially began to face off.
Maddie sent a throw-in, and after Qin Yan received the ball, he hit James again!
James let Qin Yan take a step, and the two started the first real confrontation of the game on the three-point line.
Qin Yan faced James sideways, although he was let go, there were many ways to choose from on the offensive end, but he was not careless at all.
Defensively, James is still very strong.
For two consecutive tentative steps, James was unmoved, and Qin Yan didn't make fake moves, he accelerated directly on the spot, and simply broke through on the right side!
James instantly moved sideways to block it, the two were too familiar with each other, and this simple acceleration breakthrough could be said to be basically useless.
Qin Yan's momentum of rushing forward was slowed down by James, but it didn't matter, this was normal, if James couldn't even block this move, it would be abnormal.
continued to take two or three strong steps, although he could feel that he was deviating from the original offensive line, but Qin Yan was not in a hurry, and took a heavy step with his right foot, giving people the feeling that he was going to continue to break through, but in the next moment, Qin Yan's entire body took his right foot as the axis, and suddenly made a 360-degree turn from left to right!
And this is not the end, after turning around, he didn't stand firmly, Qin Yan jumped up directly, leaned back in the air, and after adjusting it in the air, he made a shot!
James was a little surprised when Qin Yan turned around, but he moved quickly, and at the same time that Qin Yan turned around, James also stepped forward and stuck to the position in front of Qin Yan!
How is it possible to turn around and distance yourself so easily?
However, Qin Yan's direct jump was a bit unexpected, and James thought he was planning to turn around and change direction to continue to break through.
There is no way to prevent this, the two are too close, and James has to foul when he moves.
And Qin Yan leaned back in the air, if James pounced on it, the two collided in the air, not to mention whether they could prevent it or not, at this distance, both of them were likely to be injured.
Hurting for a number, this one isn't worth it.
He could only raise his hand as high as he could, although he knew that no matter how high he raised his hand at this time, it would be useless.
"Uhhh
There is no accident, this kind of ball Qin Yan scored very easily.
However, James's reaction speed still surprised Qin Yan, this feeling, James seems to be faster than before!
The Heat counterattacked, this time James singled, a bit surprisingly, it was Leonard who was on the Spurs' side to defend him!
The people of the Heat were stunned, what the hell? Isn't it heads-up?
The scene camera showed Popovich in the Spurs coach's seat, the old man held his hands, leaned back in the chair more leisurely, and smiled evilly at the camera.
Singled out? Says who? Do the Spurs have a tradition of heads-up?
Popovich's principle is very simple, Qin Yan attacks, except for James, no one can come up and defend alone (Wade's knee is wasted, Battier can't defend it), and if James attacks, I'm sorry, the best outside defense on the Spurs' side is Leonard.
Aren't you James a cow? Come on, I have Qin Yan in my hands in attack and Leonard in defense, if you can clean up these two people, then we have nothing to say if we lose the game.
Popovich thought to himself, but there was no special expression on his face, and the evil smile he still maintained looked so frightening on the big screen.
Heat fans looked at Popovich's face on the big screen, and they all resisted the urge to rush down and beat him, this old guy, what the hell does he want to do!
James is also very unhappy, this is equivalent to making him a pair of twos, and they can also rest with ease, and a few minutes before adding that he also went to the inside line to top Whiteside, damn, it's a dozen or three today?
There's no need to feint, it's a tough task today, and it's important to keep your stamina.
James directly turned into a bolt of lightning! Eh, no, he was too dark and had nothing to do with lightning, he directly turned into a black whirlwind and blew towards Leonard fiercely!
"Bang! ……”
Leonard naturally resisted hard, his death entanglement was much more powerful than last year, James was so blatantly framed, was he too confident or didn't take him into account at all?
However, James is smarter, although Leonard's break is very ferocious, but James, who is a shield, resisted Leonard's surprise attack, held the ball in his arms with one hand, and made three steps to make a layup!
Leonard's long arms are useless if they can't touch the ball, which is pushed against them with their bodies, and then they can't touch the ball, and all Leonard can do is try to get between James and the basket.
I didn't have time to see James take a few steps, anyway, after a layup that looked quite smooth, James approached the basket and raised his hand to hit the board!
"Bang-boom-"
There is no way to play cricket at close range, mainly because James broke through too simply, and the Spurs defense did not have time to keep up.
"It's okay Kehuai, just block it next time."
Qin Yan comforted Leonard, and then prepared to attack.
With one against two, it really depends on how long you can last......
