Chapter 262 The game is coming to an end

After the timeout, the game continues.

Cousins ​​returned to the court, and Joel Anthony continued to use his tricks of pushing, rubbing, pinching, and pushing in an attempt to continue to anger Cousins.

Cousins ​​felt that the anger in his chest was about to explode, and he even wanted to slap Joel Anthony's head into the toilet.

But Cousins ​​saw Artest, who was fighting James crazily on the court, and at the same time, he also saw Curry, who wanted to run without the ball, being kneed and elbowed by Wade.

Mario Chalmers has already used Death Coil to defend Westbrook, and even Bosh, who has always been weak in defense, hugged Yi Jianlian at the top three-pointer.

"Everybody fights, everybody endures this, it's just me."

Seeing this, Cousins ​​finally realized how big a mistake he had made on the court. After he calmed down, he finally realized that he was not the only one who suffered such inhuman defensive treatment on the court.

Whether it is a Heat player or a Bucks player, everyone can work hard to help the team score points and win the game under such a confrontation, only he is there as a woman and screams again and again.

"The Eastern Conference Finals has already become a battle, and everyone except me has already realized this."

"This is the playoffs, this is the playoff experience, this is war."

Cousins ​​turned his head to look at Li Lai at this moment.

He finally understood the coach's good intentions, and at the same time lamented the other party's patience with him.

"Among the players on the Bucks, Cousins ​​​​is the only one who has not experienced the baptism of the Finals and the Eastern Conference Finals. He needs such a process."

Barkley looked out onto the court, wondering how many games Cousins ​​would need to adapt to the intensity of the defense in the Eastern Conference Finals and Finals.

It stands to reason that if most NBA players want to fully adapt to the intensity of the NBA playoffs, they should have played at least one round of the playoffs.

If you want to adapt to the intensity of the Eastern Conference Finals and Finals, by the same token, you should have played at least one round of the Eastern Conference Finals and Finals.

Players like Westbrook, Curry, Artest, and Yi Jianlian of the Bucks are all players who have experienced the baptism of the finals last season. They have already seen big scenes.

Especially in the playoffs between the Bucks and the Celtics that year, the defensive strength was definitely at a historical level.

"For Cousins, who is still a rookie this year, it is still too reluctant to let him fully adapt to this level of intensity in this playoffs."

"Probably by the time of the playoffs next season, he won't be so young."

The moment Kenny Smith's voice fell, Cousins ​​received the ball inside. In the tough confrontation with Joel Anthony, Cousins ​​turned around and dunked.

With this buckle, the blood spurts, and the picture feels extremely violent.

"For this shot, Cousins ​​didn't use his offensive skills, he didn't use any footsteps, he just turned around and dunked at the basket in the simplest and roughest way."

What surprised Barkley even more was that Cousins ​​didn't yell at Joel Anthony after the dunk, but quietly and quickly returned to the backcourt.

The referee on the side even whistled and was about to blow a foul, and planned to remind Cousins ​​not to make trouble in this game.

But the scene at the scene surprised everyone. The referee couldn't blow the whistle.

"Why does Cousins ​​suddenly give people the feeling that he has grown up by several years?"

Yu Jia knows that Cousins ​​is only 20 years old this year, and most 20-year-olds are probably doing some sneaky things at this time. Cousins ​​was also like this at this age.

But the scene that just appeared on the court is not at all the maturity that a 20-year-old young man should have.

O'Neal nodded with satisfaction off the court, and said with emotion: "DeMarcus has grown up."

Li Lai smiled sincerely, and he also hoped that Cousins ​​would really grow up.

In the next round, Cousins ​​once again forced Joel Anthony inside.

He not only scored the goal, but also caused Joel Anthony's foul.

Heat coach bench.

Spoelstra stroked his chin with one hand, grinning worriedly.

Cousins ​​blasted Joel Anthony in the first two games, and if nothing else, the same will happen tonight.

Spoelstra has always believed that he has the two kings of James and Wade. Even if Cousins ​​​​explodes slightly, they are capable of winning the game.

But tonight's Cousins ​​is more than just an explosion, he is simply an explosion.

Go to Joel Anthony for every goal, the key is to score every goal.

"Joel Anthony has already committed 3 fouls in the first quarter. If he is beaten down, the Heat can only get the big Z."

It's not that Spoelstra didn't have the idea of ​​​​taking the big Z against the Bucks' twin towers in the previous game.

After all, it is a giant tower of 221cm. The big Z still has a deterrent effect on Cousins ​​and Yi Jianlian in the interior. The key is that it is also very useful in protecting the rebound and the basket.

It's just that Big Z is already 36 years old, and he, who was originally slow, has basically shrunk at this age.

If Big Z plays and the Bucks take the opportunity to counterattack and fast break, it will definitely be a huge disaster for the Heat.

The first quarter is over.

The Bucks lead the Heat 33:30.

The second game.

The familiar James led the team again, and the Bucks sent Dragic.

But tonight, the Heat changed their defensive strategy. They began to arrange more defensive players at the free throw line to prevent Dragic from easily breaking into the basket, so as to prevent him from driving the entire Bucks' offense.

This defensive strategy also extremely tests the state and feel of the Bucks' outside shooters.

Coupled with the fact that Curry is not on the court, with such defensive strategies and defensive choices, I have to say that Spoelstra is really careful when arranging defensive tactics.

In order to break through the Heat's defensive strategy, Li Lai asked Dragic to boldly split the ball and let his outside teammates solve it.

第二节比赛结束时,丹尼格林三分线外2投1中,麦迪3投2中,维兰纽瓦4投2中,德拉季奇自己也贡献了3投1中的三分球命中率。

The Bucks shot 12 of 6 three-pointers in a single quarter.

The Heat's gamble-like defensive strategy ended in failure.

Kenny Smith laughed loudly in front of the commentary and said, "The Heat are really top-notch. They really dare to let the Bucks take three points?"

"No matter how many teams fell in front of the Bucks' three-pointer in the regular season or the playoffs, Coach Larry Brown even chanted the slogan of the small ball era."

"With such a team, you, the Heat, dare to defend their three-pointers, what do you think?"

Although Barkley agrees with Kenny Smith's statement, he can understand the difficulties of the Heat's coaching staff very well.

The Heat trailed before the start of the second quarter, and they had nothing to do with the Bucks' rotation in the first two games, and Mike Bibby was blown out by Dragic.

Therefore, in order to win the game tonight, Spoelstra can only gamble to try the shooting touch of the Bucks' role players.

He originally thought that as long as Curry didn't vote, then everything would be fine.

But where did Spoelstra think, the Bucks are not Curry alone who can shoot, but the whole team can shoot.

65: 58.

The Bucks had a good lead going into the third quarter.

"Guys, hold on!"

"The Heat will never surrender to us. They will definitely launch a counterattack in the third quarter."

"Remember, in all the games this season, the Heat will always lead the opponent by a single quarter in the third quarter."

"Tonight, let's break their record."

"The third quarter is also our position!"

Under Li Lai's cheering, the entire Bucks team was in full swing.

The Milwaukee fans at the scene also shouted very cooperatively, the home team Yang Wei.

The third quarter of the game.

James took the lead, and he succeeded in consecutive singles against Artest.

The Bucks' defensive strategy is not to double-team James easily anyway, and try to avoid sharp shooters such as Ray Allen and James Jones from the outside.

But in this way, Artest will face the most terrifying defensive pressure of the Bucks team.

Defend James alone.

It was difficult for him to do this even last year, and it will be even more difficult for him this season.

"Ron."

Yi Jianlian pulled up Artest who was knocked to the ground, and couldn't help shouting softly.

This is the third time Artest was knocked to the floor tonight, and was also whistled for a defensive foul by the referee.

James' breakthrough offense is very smart, and he will never collide head-on with defensive players. With his physical condition, there are not many people who can stop him if it is not a frontal collision.

This is also the trick of defending James given by a player who has played against James many times after retiring.

Don't be afraid of colliding with him head-on, and you must not back up when defending James, because as long as James squeezes past a small step, no one will be able to defend.

Therefore, although the players defending James will not be easily called fouls by the referee when they are on the defensive strength of the opponent, but at the same time, it is also a rare thing not to be called offensive fouls with James' brutal style of play.

Li Lai was very aware of this point.

Because in the future, there will be a player known as the Greek monster who broke into the inside many times and was whistled for offensive fouls when he first learned the core play of holding the ball under Kidd's guidance, and the way he chose to solve this problem is what James is currently using. Method.

Even if you have a beast-like body, breaking through also requires skill.

A dexterous player has dexterous skills, and a beast player has beast skills.

Artest looked at Yi Jianlian, gave him a reassuring look, and patted him on the chest.

Artest knew what Yi Jianlian wanted to say, but he wanted Artest to not have to work so hard when defending, and he would make up the defense on the last checkpoint.

Knowing Yi Jianlian's intentions, Artest smiled contentedly. In the past, he was the one who wiped his teammates' butts, but now some teammates finally wanted to wipe his butts.

"My brothers are finally growing up."

Artest looked at James, who was making a free throw. He knew that his battle with James was not over yet.

In this round of the Eastern Conference finals, the key point for the Bucks to survive is James and Wade.

Switch offense.

The Heat finally couldn't stand Cousins' indiscriminate bombing inside. Joel Anthony was also fouled 5 times by Cousins ​​alone, and had to sit back on the bench at this moment.

"Jajunas Ilgauskas was brought in."

Barkley watched Big Z, the first guard with a knife next to James, come on the field, and began to be curious about the Heat's inside line.

Throughout the Eastern Conference finals until now, Big Z has not played for 1 second.

There are reasons for the opponent's 36-year-old age, and at the same time, the slow pace makes it difficult to keep up with the Bucks' offensive speed.

"But now, at this juncture in the game, Joel Anthony had to go off the court with five fouls. At this time, Big Z had to step in and take orders."

Looking at the big Z on stage, the corners of Li Lai's mouth raised and he suddenly smiled.

Tyronn Lue saw Li Lai's smile, and he, who was familiar with the other party, knew that this was the weakness of the Heat team and was caught by Li Lai.

At this time, Li Lai also walked to the sideline of the court and made a gesture, and took Cousins ​​down at the same time.

Originally Big Z played to limit Cousins, but now the Bucks took Cousins ​​down, which made Big Z very confused and couldn't help but look towards his coach's bench.

Spoelstra squeezed his chin with his right hand, raised his left hand and pressed it, signaling Big Z to stay calm.

Even if Big Z loses Cousins, he should still be able to do something with his unmatched height on the court.

The Bucks attack.

Westbrook was extremely excited when he saw Li Lai's unique gesture.

Cousins ​​was taken down and replaced by Danny Green. At this time, the Bucks were also playing a large and small lineup with Yi Jianlian as the center.

Yi Jianlian landed at the top of the arc, and Westbrook advanced with the ball.

Wade suddenly rushed up to double-team, and the experienced Westbrook quickly passed the ball to Yi Jianlian at the top of the arc.

Knowing that Yi Jianlian has a certain ability to support the ball, James, who wiped Wade's ass, quickly came to Curry.

At this time, because Curry was outside the three-point line, James also completely lost the protection of the penalty area.

Wade quickly returned to the inside to switch defenses, but at this moment!

Westbrook moved without the ball and played a hand-off pass to Yi Jianlian at the top of the arc.

Yi Jianlian also ran an off-ball pick-and-roll on Mario Chalmers while leading the ball with one hand.

After Westbrook used the pick-and-roll, he strode straight to the basket without hesitation. Wade, who returned to defense, temporarily changed his mind and switched to Westbrook.

boom!

Westbrook took off from the free throw line and took off directly, not caring about Wade's defense.

Facing Westbrook who had rushed up at this time, Wade didn't dare to attack casually.

One is that the Heat have already reached the number of fouls and free throws, and they have already committed a lot of fouls in this game. The other is that even Wade has a hard time defending Westbrook who is rushing up, so he can only watch the opponent.

The tortoise battle ax splits the buckle!

This dunk also blew the horn of the Bucks' offense. This is also the first day they came to the Bucks in the 08-09 season. The team has already started to play tactics.

"Westbrook and Yi Jianlian pick and roll."

"After Big Z came on the field, it was completely a display. The Heat's game is coming to an end."
