Center first

Chapter 441 Silence or Explosion

Spoelstra is grasping the short time after the first quarter to make arrangements on the court. Regarding the attacking momentum of the little emperor, he is also looking for a way to solve the opponent on the defensive end, but Lin Yi is inside. Being tightly entangled by O'Neal's huge body, there is no possibility of double-teaming the little emperor from the inside. The most important part of the cage-like chain defense last season could not play a role. Declared that Spoelstra's defensive strategy must be abandoned, unless Lin Yi can get rid of the current state of being entangled by O'Neal.

However, the Filipino doesn't think this is a problem that can be solved in a short time. It's not that he hasn't analyzed the video of the Cavaliers in the previous game, but that shark didn't exist in that team, which makes many times He can only outline O'Neal's role on the field in a fantasy state, but unfortunately, it is an imagination and not a real game after all. The most violent state of the shark can only be truly displayed on the field.

Just like in the last quarter of the game, O'Neal showed his most ferocious side. He caused a lot of trouble for Lin Yi, which has forced Spoelstra to change his tactical arrangements. Only Only by protecting Lin Yi's playing time in the paint can the Miami Heat continue to fight with their opponents. After all, there is only one Lin Yi in the Miami Heat team, and this kid is almost irreplaceable.

The biggest trouble Spoelstra faces now is not only that Lin Yi's role as an inside fulcrum has been weakened by his opponent, but more importantly, that guy Mike Brown has no plans to replace O'Neal at all. Guys can be replaced at will, but O'Neal will not be replaced. Mike Brown knows very well which side replaces his center first and which side will be passive first, so he would rather let O'Neal reduce his running on the court and only stick to the basket Next, he will not easily replace the shark from the field, especially when Lin Yi is not off the field, he will not easily replace him, he just wants to use the role of the shark to weaken Lin Yi's role, The Miami Heat with only a sharp knife is not terrible.

O'Neill's pursuit of physical confrontation is to force Lin Yi to take the trouble of fouling as soon as possible. Unfortunately, that kid didn't fall for such a trick, and the Filipino's tactical change also reduced the physical contact between the two. This is what makes Mike the most. Brown feels regretful, such a change can only allow him to continue to keep O'Neal on the court, simply that the big guy doesn't consume as much energy in running back and forth as he does against the basket, and it can also calm him down in a short respite , the most urgent thing for Mike Brown now is to stabilize the rhythm, but God knows whether the Filipino will continue to run like this, but the current attack method does not seem to be a bad decision, after all, the little emperor's The offensive firepower has been fully fired, and the Cavaliers are also weakly leading. The most important thing is that this is the home court of the Cavaliers, and everything is still under their control.

More than ten years of experience in the NBA has allowed O'Neal to allocate his physical strength well. Although this big guy is 38 years old, resting for more than ten games and recharging his energy for a summer did not make him show his enthusiasm for the game. Tired, especially the number of confrontations between him and Lin Yi in the low post was not enough to allow him to leave the court to replenish his strength. Spoelstra changed his style of play in order to protect Lin Yi. shark.

Let the game continue to run at this crazy high speed?Spoelstra asked himself this in the first quarter, but O'Neal's powerful attacking style at the basket made him choose to continue to use Wade as the main offensive point of play. He didn't dare to let Lin Yi attack with the ball easily. After all, Lin Yi had already committed a foul once. He didn't want Lin Yi to commit two or three fouls before he encircled the little emperor. At that time, he chose to deal with that fierce LeBron James timidly.

But looking at the current situation, maybe the Filipino's tactics will have to persist for a while, at least he needs to make the opponent feel tired first, but the fierce breakthrough of the little emperor has already caused a lot of trouble for the Miami Heat, Spoelstra Erstra is now gambling. He is betting on who has a better hand between Wade and the little emperor, or whether the old Bowen can cause more trouble for the little emperor on the defensive end.

However, Spoelstra never gave Lin Yi the task that belonged to him, because they had already agreed before the game that everything would go according to plan. Personal things, not to mention that Lin Yi does not have an advantage in the confrontation on the field, which prevents the Filipino from assigning too many tasks to Lin Yi. In his opinion, being able to hold that shark is already a Very good to complete the task, after all, there are not many people in this league who can feel relaxed when facing that shark.

However, watching Spoelstra give others a detailed explanation of the tactical arrangement, Lin Yi felt for the first time that he was a little out of the tactical system. He is not the kind who needs to score or other things to prove My own people, but everything is different today. Lin Yi was brought into a battle belonging to the center by O'Neal's attack from the very beginning of the game. Although he is not a person who cares about statistics.

But today's game has been doomed from the very beginning, no matter whether Lin Yi cares about the comparison between him and O'Neill, but this atmosphere and this confrontation have put both of them under the spotlight, and Lin Yi is It was the first time that he felt that he was always at a disadvantage in the confrontation at the basket. Although this disadvantage was not obvious to others, it could even be said to be very weak, but Lin Yi knew it very well.

The difference in weight made it the first time that Lin Yi had to put in [-]% of his strength on the defensive end to fight against the opponent, and O'Neal's skillful turning skills and powerful back-to-the-basket attack ability made Lin Yi feel the king of the center. Although Lin Yi has never been at a disadvantage in the confrontation with his interspersed footsteps and low-post support, he clearly knows that he has lost the advantage of free movement in such a confrontation.

Although the confrontation between the two of them is not many times, as long as O'Neal is attacking with the ball, Lin Yi has no good defensive method to restrain the opponent's threat in the low post, but he himself has to rely on Only the mid-range shooting can involve O'Neal's defensive steps. The low-post skills he has always relied on at the basket have no space and room for his opponents to display. This kind of game is no longer within his control.

The focus of the game in the first quarter has been on the battle between Wade and the little emperor, but Lin Yi is very clear that this style of play has been given up by the Filipino for a long time, if it is not because of his passivity at the basket, The Filipino will never let the game show how chaotic, especially when he has sent his strongest lineup, he will not let the team lose control of the rhythm of the game.

"It was my poor performance that brought the whole team into a stalemate." Although Lin Yi didn't show any emotional fluctuations on his face, his clenched fists were about to soak the team. The towel covered with his own sweat was squeezed out of water. Maybe the crazy atmosphere in the Quicken Loans Arena made many people ignore such a detail, but those who watched his game in front of the TV would not see such a slight difference.

Lin Yuwei knows this big boy who is silent on the sidelines too well. His tightly closed lips and clenched fists will only appear when there is a problem in training. He rarely shows this in the game. At this time, Lin Yuwei knew very clearly that the big boy had encountered a difficult problem, she was not by his side, and all she could do now was hold her hands tightly and pray for him, I pray that this boy can get rid of the entanglement of troubles and show his gentle smile as soon as possible. Only when there is a smile on the corner of his mouth, he is the Lin Yi she is familiar with, and only Lin Yi in that state is Zhan Yi. The invincible Guardians of Miami.

In a luxury hotel room in New York City, a tall girl was fidgeting anxiously in front of the TV. Her manager was already dizzy by the girl who was in a state of anxiety, "Taylor, let's calm down." A little bit? Although I am not very proficient in this kind of basketball game, but you should at least tell me what happened, you have to know that you have a show tonight, but I think your current state is very poor."

Anna carefully and patiently persuaded the beautiful girl walking around in front of her, but her words didn't seem to have much effect.

"He hasn't smiled since he sat in the dugout. I can't see a smile on his face. You know, even when he was in the first game of the NBA Finals, he could do it under such a difficult environment. Use a smile to bring courage to others, but now he looks too quiet, as if he blamed himself for a mistake on the training ground, I know he is in trouble, so I am worried about him, Anna, I have not been by his side for more than two months. I miss him very much. He is like this now, which makes me unable to calm down. I really don’t know if I can hold on to the performance at night. I think Go back to him right away, okay?" In this luxurious room, the current Taylor Swift can't feel any happiness or comfort at all, she only knows that the person she cares about the most is in trouble now, Although she couldn't help with things on the basketball court, she really missed him, wanted to go back, and wanted to be by his side. This was the first time that the little princess knew what it meant to miss him deeply.

Anna looked at the pleading little queen in front of her, she didn't know how to refuse this beautiful girl's request, "Let's continue with the performances and activities in this city, and then, I will help you cancel other arrangements, Taylor, I really don't know what magic power he has, but I don't want to see you so anxious, well, just let the calls from sponsors and performers bother me, if I persist for a few days, I will Give you freedom, let you go back to that big man..." Before Anna finished these few words, she was hugged tightly by Taylor who was about to jump up excitedly, "Oh, young man Your love makes people jealous." Anna can only use such words to explain all this.

Lin Yi couldn't hear Yiren's prayers for him in the distance and the worry and anxiety. He just thought about the solution to the game in silence. His clenched hands not only represented his reluctance, but also a way to let him The way of accumulating power is not to die in silence, but to explode in silence. Lin Yi has never been the kind of guy who bows his head and submits to others. He was not before, and it is the same now. He only thinks about fighting back, using the craziest way.

Lin Yi doesn't care whether he has to be the absolute core of the team's tactics, but he absolutely doesn't want to be a drag on the team's tactical design in such a game, "We must win the initiative from that shark, if The opponent wants to get himself into foul trouble, so it is better to let both of them be dragged into the scene of mutual explosion, be tough! Only if you are tough enough can you become the master of the field! The space under the basket must be seized. Come back, it doesn’t matter who the opponent is, it’s the same!” For the first time, Lin Yi didn’t listen to what his coach was doing, but was completely immersed in his own thinking until Wade took him with his arm. Only then did he wake himself up from his thoughts.

"Lin Yi, I gave up playing with you as the core in the first quarter for the sake of the entire team. I don't want you to become passive because of defending that big guy. I need you to understand this. It is the game that makes us only Choosing this style of play does not mean that your role on the court is weakening." Although Spoelstra did not communicate with Lin Yi too much, the silent expression of this little guy just now has already changed. Being seen by him, he didn't want his tactical core to misunderstand anything. He wanted this little guy to know that everything he did was to protect him.

"Boss, I know what your arrangement is for, but I want to try to fight that big guy. The team shouldn't make too many changes for me alone. If I really have nothing to do with him , I think it is not too late for us to continue the tactical arrangement just now, I want to give it a try, because I want to win, not because I want to prove anything in front of that big guy, I just want to take the victory from here, so that If the fight continues, it will only be more detrimental to us." Lin Yi expressed his thoughts to the head coach very bluntly.

The old guys from the Miami Heat all looked at Lin Yi's determined expression. This kid seemed to have made up his mind to fight his opponent to the death. They also knew that what this little guy was telling was the truth, even though Wade was on the court They can still score points against James, and Millsap can also support the control of rebounds, but after all, they are used to Lin Yi supporting them. Even Wade has long been accustomed to letting Lin Yi support him. The attack route of making the ball cut, although this change is effective now, it is still a bit awkward after all.And Spoelstra's silent expression seemed to be thinking about something. Wade didn't speak, but this guy's arm was resting on Lin Yi's shoulder. The Flash was showing his attitude with this action. He was not opposed to such an attempt, and he even hoped that his partner could really kill the shark.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Spoelstra's silence didn't last long, and he asked Lin Yi after a while.

"Yes, boss, hit the ball into the inside, give it to me, let me tear the offensive gap from the inside of the Cavaliers, believe me, it can be done!" Lin Yi's tone was full of concern for the situation. Eager to fight, his clenched fists signaled the guy's determination.

"OK, I'll give you 5 minutes. Use your hands to prove to me that you can do it. I will provide you with a battlefield. What I need from you is to suppress the opponent with firepower. I don't care what your reason is. I can't see the effect you said within the stipulated time, and I will give up playing with you as the center without hesitation, because I want to win more than you." Spoelstra punched hard with his fist Touch Lin Yi's chest.

"Okay, there is one minute left, everyone listen to me seriously, now let's return to the most familiar offensive routine, Ben, you replace Bowen on the court, you have to pay more attention to the protection of rebounds, Mirza Go to the small forward position, I need you to stop the little emperor with a strong body, and keep the impact on the rebound, but I need you to block the little emperor's inward cutting pace, Wade, You go to take over Bell's work, you control the rhythm, and you initiate the pass. Stackhouse is ready to play. I need a stable scoring point on the periphery now. Don't hide your three-pointers from me. When you are free, you can shoot me dead, I just need you to score, everyone must start to stretch the opponent's defense, and everyone's first offensive choice is to put it inside! From that shark Pull out two teeth from your mouth! Lin Yi, remember what you said yourself, I need you to prove that my choice is not wrong with a strong performance!" Spoelstra quickly explained every The mission of the man, when he finished the last sentence with Lin Yi, the Filipino's fist hit the tactical board fiercely.

"Roar!" When such a roar sounded in the dugout of the Miami Heat, Mike Brown's heart tightened. He was really afraid of the roar of those Miami people. Whenever such a sound sounded , he always saw a group of terrifying beasts being released from their cages, and this time was no exception. When he turned his head to look at the opponent's rest area, the group of crazy Miami people were standing on the sidelines to demonstrate to everyone. Their hands seem to be sending out their challenge declaration to the entire arena. In this way, they are responding to the instigation performance of the little emperor just now. These Miami people are ready to fight. This is a signal, a decisive battle. Signal, those Miamis are ready.

Spoelstra opened his palm to Lin Yi before he entered the court, "5 minutes, remember, let me see the effect, the battlefield is ready for you, play a beautiful game for me !"

5 minutes, that's enough, that's going to be a crazy 5 minutes. . .Whether to continue to remain silent or to explode wildly will be decided in these 5 minutes. . .

(Swept...all swept away, now the Lakers, Suns, Magic, collective action, began to watch the Celtics and Cavaliers inhumanely...The pressure on these two teams is indeed great...)
