Center first

Chapter 472
How many limbs did the Miami Heat's chariot crush?There may not be many people who can calculate it. Anyway, these guys are crazily grabbing victories in the remaining 22 games. They only lost three games in the whole March, and that was still in Spoelstra. In the case of player rotation, the main players including Lin Yi and Wade got enough rest time in March. This may be a point that all teams must be jealous, because compared with these Miamis, they These chasers behind must all fight with their lives.

Perhaps now is the time for this Filipino to thank Pat Riley the most, because that old guy has prepared enough players for him to use. Although many of those people are already old guys in the eyes of the outside world, but It is these old guys who know how to preserve their physical strength and how to play their role in key games, and they don't care about any statistical performance at all. Their rich on-the-spot experience can also capture the opponent's team very keenly. Achilles heel, when Lin Yi and Wade are not on the court, the Heat will not lack combat effectiveness.

But many people are criticizing the Miami Heat's game status in March. In many people's eyes, the game schedule in March is too beneficial to these Miami people. The games they won contain too many weak points. Team, this kind of game is not good enough at all. The three games they lost were to the Lakers, Spurs and Cavaliers. They did not show how fierce they were in these peak confrontations.

Most of their victories come from those weak teams. Even if those games are played very well, what can they get in exchange?Did the Miami Heat still expect to encounter opponents of this level in the playoffs?Most of the confrontations between them and the strong teams ended in defeat. You must know that there are not many soft persimmons for them in the Eastern Conference. After entering the playoffs, it must be one tough battle after another. Can they win? ?This kind of criticism is not one or two, there are already too many anti-Heat players standing on their opposite side and shouting at this time.

Especially after the Miami Heat lost to the Cavaliers in the away game, there were more voices doubting the Heat's offensive ability. Even the local media in Miami were speculating about what happened to their team. Before the All-Star Game, when they encountered these teams, they still maintained an absolute advantage. Now they are relaxed at the critical moment when they need to win the opponent most, and they don't understand why Spoelstra Will still maintain a small-scale rotation when playing against the Cavaliers. Even Lin Yi's playing time did not exceed 10 minutes.

Only the Miami Heat know what they are doing. When the media focused all their attention on their losses, many reporters were selectively blind. They did not see the Miami Heat playing in the entire March. How did he win the rest of the tough battles, especially the state he showed in the two head-to-head confrontations with the Magic, and the game that killed the Celtics in the TD North Shore Garden Arena.

These key victories were deliberately ignored by those who like to criticize. They want to find fault with the Heat, especially when these Miami lunatics are getting stronger, they prefer to find fault with these people. Their weaknesses, even if they don't have weaknesses, they need to find something to comment on, but Spoelstra has his own plans, but he doesn't have the habit of telling others about these thoughts. The Miami Heat never need those The media taught themselves how to play, they have their own calculations, and they have long been concerned about the choice of winning or losing.

"The task of our team is to win the first place in the regular season, and we are not going to break the record of 72 wins and 10 losses created by the Bulls in the regular season. Why do we have to win every game? Are we strong enough to kill everything in seconds? My request is to keep No.1. I don’t care about those insignificant victory numbers. It’s my request to win the game that should be won. What do other people think about me? Nothing to do, I don't need to change my plan for their ideas, the most important point is that they are not the head coach of the Heat, I am." Spoelstra said in an interview with Fan Ling , the Filipino is obviously giving up certain games on purpose, especially when head-to-head confrontation is required, he will selectively deal with the opponent. In such a fierce confrontation, he needs to save himself.

The Lakers and the Spurs, these two western powerhouses can only meet one in the playoffs, and that's still in the finals, not to mention losing such a game can't cause them any trouble, why should they fight to the end ?Is it really for some so-called psychological advantage?Spoelstra is not confident enough to scare away opponents by relying on regular-season competitions. Even if you can beat your opponent by 50 points in such a game, so what?Is there any other meaning besides adding a win?Spoelstra really needs to despise the IQ of those reporters. In their view, a strong team needs to sweep all the opponents before they can flaunt their strength, but Filipinos don’t think their IQ will be equal to them .

Including the Cavaliers game, he was deliberately adjusting the team's tactics. He did not give up fighting for the victory of the game, but he will never expose all his plans for a regular season, especially when he is still in the game. When looking for the weaknesses of these Clevelanders, he will not reveal all his thoughts, and the game has been contested until the fourth quarter, and he thinks he is giving up the game on purpose. He just wants to know how many cards those Clevelands have, and those Clevelands are desperately trying to win. This may be more reflected in a psychological factor. The Heat have proved their strength by winning.

Maybe those Miami fans didn't want to see those Cleveland people showing complacency on the court, but Spoelstra selectively ignored the boos, even Mike Brown's big smiling face If they can be tolerated, then there is nothing he can’t bear. He has already told his players about his decision before the game. This is just the regular season. They just need the victory of the game, but not every Every game must be won, and it will be more deadly to selectively try to figure out the opponent's style of play in the future. After all, the confrontation between them and the Cavaliers can only be encountered in the semifinals or finals. Now I want to Win or lose?Obviously it's not time for a decisive battle.

The little emperor's waving hands stimulated the emotions of the fans in Quicken Loans Arena, but he obviously forgot that such a move would also stimulate his opponents. When those Miami people turned and left, Spoelstra had already Tell them that the regular season is the regular season, and some grievances between teams are better resolved in the playoffs. Last year's 4:0 was just the beginning, so there is no reason to let the opponent take advantage of it this year. What they won was just an ordinary regular season. This does not mean that they can win smoothly on another battlefield. The feud between Miami and Cleveland is best left to that cruel battlefield to resolve. See At that time, could the little emperor still wave his hands like this?

At least in such a game loss, Spoelstra has already begun to figure out how to kill the opponent. With Lin Yi and Wade in rotation, they can still survive until the fourth quarter. It has been proved that those Clevelanders have consumed too much reserve energy in the process of hitting the regular season rankings. Old guys including O'Neal must play more than 10 minutes in each game.

This was the case throughout the regular season in March. Even though Big Z had returned smoothly, it did not ease the pressure on O'Neal at all. Those Cleveland players still seemed a bit empty inside, and Jamison's role was more to open up the opponent's inside In terms of space, he is not an all-round insider after all, especially when it comes to rebounds, he relies more on his own experience and height than on his jumping ability and impact. Such a weakness Fulfillment of Miami's rush to grab the rebound, which is perhaps the Cavaliers most need to fear.

What the Miami Heat are doing now is not only to try their best to win the rest of the games, but they will also allow themselves to occupy the most favorable position. Although they lost these three games against the strong teams, don't forget , In the process of competing for the division ranking and the first place in the regular season, they will not let down their vigilance in the game that needs to be won the most. In the direct confrontation with the Magic and Celtics, they have no reservations. They won three games directly and cleanly, especially in the TD North Shore Garden Arena. They once again eclipsed those 17 championship banners. They didn't leave these Bostonians at all throughout the game. Any opportunity, the suppression of the audience almost defeated the opponent from the beginning.

The old Garnett finally entered his fatigue period after several months of consecutive games. The Celtics have four superstars, which means that they can't sort out two sets like Miami. The Big Four must guarantee They have to play for more than 30 minutes in each game. Such continuous battles have already made their bodies tired. In the game against the Miami Heat, it was obvious that these old guys began to move slowly. Even Pierce's impact is starting to lose a sharp feeling. The only one who can run freely on the field is their young guard Rajon Rondo, but you want such a guy who has no mid-range and long-range shooting ability to hold up The attack line of the entire Celtics team is simply too difficult, not to mention that he is always accompanied by an old Bell who is always watching the tiger, or Wade who is always lightning fast.

Use the score of 101:88 to win the opponent. Although the gap in the score is not big, everyone can clearly see how disadvantaged the Celtics are on the court. They have never been in control throughout the game. At their own pace, Lin Yi and Da Ben strongly suppressed the combination of Perkins and Garnett on the inside, while Ray Allen on the outside was also severely suppressed by the black-handed old Bowen. Bowen's personal harassment can be said to be ubiquitous. His invincible black hand made the gentleman on the three-point line burst out foul language to greet the opponent for the first time on the field. You can imagine what it was like A defensive strength, not to mention what kind of defensive entanglement the little guy Rondo will face.

The rotation between Wade and Iverson reasonably provided enough offensive firepower. When Rivers made consecutive substitutions and marked to no avail, those Celtics fans could only look at their opponents helplessly. In the third quarter, the score was gradually opened up, especially in the last quarter, the defense of the Miami Heat almost destroyed all the offensive coordination of the Celtics, and only allowed the opponent to score 13 points in a single quarter. This is the scariest part of the Miami Heat right now. Maybe you will say that it is because the opponents are getting older, but you should never ignore the defensive enthusiasm of this group of Miami lunatics. They must own every ball. Goals of contention, which they will pursue until their opponents start making turnovers.

And the Miamis not only used this kind of game to directly drag the Celtics from the No. [-] position in the regular season, they also hit the morale of these old guys. During the game, the Celtics, who had been suffocating to maintain their leading position, were discouraged. Regardless of whether Rivers was willing to admit this fact, the Celtics lost in the next six games. After four games, it has already explained too many psychological problems. This is one of the reasons why Spoelstra dared to selectively lose in the next few games. After all, the Cavaliers were desperately chasing behind them. The gap between him and the Magic is not something that can be immediately caught up in one or two games.

The most important thing is that in the two direct confrontations between the Heat and the Magic, they won both home and away games very smoothly, which almost directly nailed Orlando to the second place in the southeastern region. Poor It was really difficult for Howard to stand up against Lin Yi this time. In the game, the Miami Heat never chose any tactical arrangement of double-teaming. It was a one-on-one defense. Lin Yi and Howard's The confrontation at the basket belongs to the two of them, but there are really too few times when Howard can take advantage of Lin Yi. It is so rare that he can only score 10 points and 11 rebounds under Lin Yi's marking. , The inside advantage that the Magic rely on the most has been completely extinguished in front of Lin Yi.

Just relying on Carter's breakthrough and Lewis' mid-range and long-range shooting to take the victory from the Miami Heat?This is no different from daydreaming. The Miami people will only leave the Magic with two nightmarish game experiences. Big Van Gundy is the only guy in the Orlando Magic who can still maintain anger. Unfortunately, the anger burst out of his bloated body It can't change the final outcome of the game. They can only accept such two defeats helplessly, and they have to watch helplessly as those Miami people stepped on their own corpses to stand more and more firmly on the No.1 throne in the regular season. .

The games throughout March have laid a solid tone for the final regular season rankings. After the Miami Heat won 12 games crazy, they have already locked their playoff spots half a month in advance. As for the final Whether he can win the regular season first, Spoelstra began to smile and said nothing. The Miami Heat did not have too many competitors in the eight games in April. Even the Filipinos Don't say it yourself, and not many people expect the Heat to ask questions. What Spoelstra needs to do now is to adjust the state of these old guys, including his own substitute players. Let the status of these guys start phasing into playoff time.

Although the chasers behind have never given up the opportunity to surpass Miami, but when the regular season schedule enters April, not many people can live with this fantasy. After all, you can't count on the Knicks, the Pistons, Teams like the Timberwolves and the Pacers are going to stop the progress of the Miamis. Even if the most powerful teams in the league are piled up on the Miami Heat's April schedule, it is impossible for these Miamis to try consecutively. Seeing the taste of failure, now these chasers can only spread their grievances on the group of people who plan the league's schedule, because this group of guys created the convenience that Miami people enjoy in the final sprint, but they also forgot one thing. One thing, when the Miami people are on the most terrifying road trip, no team will release such grievances. Everything the Heat get is done with their own hands. No victory will Sent to your home in vain, today's victory is the reward of these guys' crazy season a location.

The curtain of the regular season began to fall slowly. The ranking of the rest of the teams has nothing to do with the Miami people. They just want to wait quietly for the start of the final battle. The cruelest battlefield is about to start, so there is no reason Let the sadness of last year's finals continue to be repeated. These Miami people who have been crazy for a season need to prove themselves with the final victory. The beast that bites all opponents, Miami's chariot has begun to rumble, the playoffs are coming, will they win the final championship?God, that old guy doesn't know either, but now he can already see Lin Yi's clenched fist. . .
