Chapter 127: Fierce Battle Nets
At the end of the first quarter, the Nets led the Heat by six points 28-22. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After less than two minutes of rest, Yang Di and others returned to the field.
'You have to play more aggressively. Stan Van Gundy told the Heat players to play more resolutely.
Yang Di thought to himself, this is the home court of the Nets, thank God for a few fouls, and resolutely kill inside? This difficulty is not a bit high.
"Toot ~" The bald referee puffed out his chest and whistled, and the heat sent the bottom ball.
Kidd began to rotate at the end of the second quarter, and the Heat replaced Alstom, who steadily took the ball across the half court and subconsciously made a few crotch drops, while raising his head to observe his teammates' movements.
The Heat's tactics were simple, nothing more than high pick-and-rolls and elbow covers, and Alston distributed the ball to Rasol Butler on the wing.
Yang Di went up to cover Rasol, and after Rasol acted as a cover, he took a small step out and shot directly.
Defenders certainly don't get thrown away so easily and reach out to interfere with his shots.
There was a "bell" and the shot did not go in.
The ball was thrown too quickly, and the deviated track was in another direction, Yang Di didn't have time to rush to grab the rebound in the front court, so he could only give up grabbing the board and return to defense.
Aaron Williams, the interior player who replaced Collins, protected the backcourt rebound.
The 2.06-meter-old Aaron Williams, 33, has always been the representative of the league's hard-working blue-collar players, good at rebounding and blocking, and has no special skills on the offensive end.
The Nets attacked, and after Kidd went off the court, the point guard position was handed over to Lucios Harris, and at the same time, Croatian guard Zoran Pranić, who was also drafted in the '03 draft like Jandy.
In this lineup, Zoran and Lucios can both hold the ball, among them, Zoran has a good ability to control the ball as a representative of tall defenders.
After passing the ball a few times from the outside, the Nets put the ball in the hands of the 22-year-old rookie.
Zoran faced Rasol's defense, Rasol was thin, Zoran thought that he had to attack one by himself, so he made a simple shoulder shake and changed direction when he took the ball, and broke through to the left.
Rasol didn't lose his position, and his character as a European player was revealed, as Zoran passed the ball back to Lucios, who saw that the time was running out and threw the pot to Kenyon Martin, the biggest name on the field.
Martin catches the ball in the middle of the range and jumpers, but the ball doesn't go in.
Under the basket, Yang Di, who was more inside, resisted Aaron Williams and collected the rebound.
Aaron didn't rush to retreat, and wanted to counter the basketball in Yang Di's hand on the spot, Yang Di lit up his elbow and firmly grasped the ball on his chest.
The Nets retreated unhurriedly, and Yang Di gave the ball to Alston who came around.
After halftime, the Heat attacked.
Yang Di blocked Alstom, Alston dribbled the ball under his crotch and pulled the ball back behind his back, and took a small jump to help the block from Yang Di's right side.
Yang Di's second pick-and-roll helped Alston block Lucios solidly.
Alston dribbled to the left, made a nice forward change in front of the big man Aaron Williams, and then dribbled with his left hand to the basket.
Yang Di followed behind, ready to fill in the leaks at any time.
Alstom also saw Yang Di's tall body, his heart moved slightly, and he half-turned around and passed the ball horizontally, ready to have a subtle little cooperation with Yang Di.
Unexpectedly, Aaron's reaction was very fast, and he subconsciously reached out quickly and destroyed the pass at once.
The basketball poked out and was picked up by Lucios, he ran to the front court with his legs, Yang Di didn't care about this passing error, and turned around to chase Lucios.
"Whoosh-" Lucios dribbled forward extremely fast.
"Whoosh-" Yang Di chased after him at a fast speed.
Why are there two tones? It turned out that on the other side, Caron Butler was also rushing to catch up, and Caron Butler was faster, immediately catching up with Lucios Harris and fighting against the dribble that interfered with him.
"This way!"
On the other side, Rodney Rodgers, who cut diagonally on the other side, shouted to his teammates to pass the ball.
Lucios didn't pause and passed the ball with a single hit.
The orange basketball turned into a yellow light and bounced up on the floor, but at this time, a big hand came out of the line in advance!
"Yang Di, good ball!" I don't know who shouted on the Heat bench to cheer for Yang Di.
It turned out that it was Yang Di who broke the ball as an insider, and Yang Di, who was chasing back, completely saw through the Nets' fast-break pass and snatched the ball back at an astonishing speed.
The fast attacking side lost the ball again in an instant, and at this time, the entire court, ten people were particularly open, which can be called the chaotic battle stage.
Yang Di saw that there was no one, passed to Alston near the center circle, and then ran back desperately.
Alston came back with a counter-attack, and there was no one to defend the three-point line, and after stabilizing it slightly, he made a jumper to chase down the three-pointer.
This shot does not conform to the tactical rules, but to be reasonable, this is also an empty position, the reason why Alston no longer passes the ball to the inside line is because he thinks that the two inside Yang Di and Haslem on the Heat court at this time have average offensive methods, and the two of them are lightly qualified, he just shoots like this, and the two will not talk about him.
"Bell" to the ground, iron again.
The basketball bounced outside, and the aggressive Haslem rushed over and grabbed the rebound with both hands.
Yang Di cut in from the middle, bypassing the defensive Kenyon Martin, Haslem made a low pass, Yang Di just took the basketball and faced the basket directly!
Take off, bomb!
Such a score is as simple as drinking water, and Yang Di added two more points to his score book.
The Heat trailed by four points at 24-28 for the first time since the second quarter.
At 9 minutes and 57 seconds, the Nets attacked in the frontcourt, and the basketball was still in the hands of Martin, who tested Haslem and stepped back to shoot a jumper and hit the middle distance.
The Nets led the Heat by six points at 30-24.
"Pick-and-roll."
Caron Butler motioned for Yang Di to block him, and after Yang Di finished dismantling, the Nets kept guarding his down, and Aaron Williams followed Yang Di's side.
Then the pressure on Butler to break through is much less, and after encountering the help defense of the outside line into the inside line, it is passed to the hands of Rasol in the bottom corner.
Rassol shot a three-pointer and hit it as well. The Heat trailed the Nets by three points 27-30.
Suddenly, the two teams felt open, and looking back, the Nets passed inside and outside, which also led to an open three-point opportunity, and Lucios seized the opportunity and responded with a three-pointer from the Heat. 27 to 33.
When you don't feel good, you don't take the opportunity to grab two more rebounds, and when you feel good, you don't even have the opportunity to grab rebounds.
Yang Di watched his teammates and opponents hit consecutive shots, and only grabbed one rebound in the second quarter so far.
Finally, he didn't feel good, and his playing time was up, so he had no choice but to take a break.
