The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 158

The reporters have gradually gotten used to Zhang Xiaotian's big mouth, and many people lamented that the good boy from the Spurs became a little swollen after he came out.

But they like it, so there is a gimmick, and the Heat's current record also has the cost of pretending.

Back to back can still slow down for a few days, although it will be back to back next.

However, the first game is at home, which is acceptable. There is only one game that is difficult to play.

"Zhang, let's go heads-up." After the basic training, Chalmers came over.

Zhang Xiaotian had a strange expression on his face, they were not in the same position, they were singled out.

"Forget you win." He said perfunctorily.

It's not that he's running away, it's not necessary. Although he's not good enough in training, Chalmers is really not afraid if he wants to fight one-on-one.

"Zhang, what do you mean, look down on me?" Chalmers was a little annoyed.

After Zhang Xiaotian came over, his status in the team dropped a bit, which made him very upset.

He wants to fight for a better contract with the Big Three, and not paying attention now will affect all of this.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, James walked over with a frown, "What are you doing, does the winning streak make you proud? What kind of heads-up is going on between teammates?"

Chalmers was a little angry, but he didn't dare to refute.

James paused for a moment, then said to Zhang Xiaotian: "Zhang, you don't need to be so serious. It's okay to have fun after training. Teams competing for the championship also need to have a good relationship with their teammates."

James wanted to maintain majesty and be kind, Zhang Xiaotian smiled and said nothing.

He started well in the Heat, but he didn't integrate into any small circle of the team.

Fortunately, James is a more practical person, as long as he can help the team, he will not be isolated.

Zhang Xiaotian was still a little depressed when he went home at night, so he took his wife to seek some comfort.

"How about we find a team that is willing to support you as the boss, and then meet God and kill God."

"I want to win the championship."

"Then you are still talking, I want to despise you, you guys are today, you often despised me back then."

"Honey, you don't love me anymore."

After messing around with Yang Feiyu, Zhang Xiaotian's mood improved a lot.

Chalmers actually has a sense of crisis. Ray Allen has adjusted his body and is ready to come back. If his weight in the team continues to decline, even the main guard of the championship team will not be easy to mix in the league. After all, not everyone It's Rondo.

Speaking of it, Zhang Xiaotian also has the same concerns, after all, the Big Three of the Heat are too conspicuous.

If he is an ordinary player, he must go to a weak team to train for a few years, maybe he can get a high salary, and the status of being in a group with others can be different.

But his situation is a bit special. He needs victory points and a championship to improve his strength.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaotian must hang out with a team capable of competing for the championship for a few years, and wait until he really has the strength to consider his personal team status.

He has always been very rational in what he should do.

On November 11, the Heat played against the Eagles at home.

The Eagles got Millsap and DeMarre Carroll in the summer, and the lineup feels more orthodox than last season.

However, Millsap will not play in this game. During this time, the Heat feel a little lucky, and the teams they encounter are often short of major generals.

But they are the same, Wade's knee feels uncomfortable again, the Heat don't care about the record of winning streak, let Wade rest quickly.

In this case, Zhang Xiaotian appeared in the second position, and Battier started to go to the fourth position.

The Eagles play Kyle Korver at the second position, and Zhang Xiaotian likes to play against this kind of pure shooter.

As for Bosh, he also likes to play insiders like Horford.

As soon as it came up, Bosh scored points, and the opponent Millsap couldn't play. The Heat's defense was much easier.

Kyle Korver is a one-trick team, and his three-pointers are quick.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't keep up and was shot by the opponent, but he responded immediately, with a mid-range shot and a foul, which can be regarded as suppressing the opposing player.

The Heat got off to a good start, but didn't take the opportunity to establish an advantage.

Wade didn't play is an obvious reason, and James is a little uncomfortable returning to the third position, which is due to Carroll's desperate defense.

The Eagles' style of play is also very clear. Even without Millsap, they still focus on the inside.

Everyone wants to bully the Heat's inside line now. They usually only have one inside line on the court, and Bosh's shooting style at the [-]th position. The Eagles can't help it. It is too difficult to play other positions.

Jeff Teague actually wanted to spend money on Moss, but every time his strength reached that level, the Eagles still relied on Horford and substitute insider Pero Antiche for offense.

The effect of Ray Allen's comeback on the Heat's side is not bad. In terms of stability, Ray Allen really has nothing to say.

Relatively speaking, Lewis, who is not particularly old, is purely making up the number of people.

In the second quarter, James finally adjusted.

As far as James's body is concerned, he can do at least three quarters with high-intensity resistance. Carroll can't handle it in the second quarter, so he can only take turns with Mike Scott.

But Mike Scott's defense is still two grades worse.

Bosh continued to have fun with Horford, but the rhythm has gradually come to the Heat's side.

Zhang Xiaotian continued to overwhelm Korver, that is, he usually pulls down the opposing players together, making both of them look mediocre, rather than happily exploding each other.

At halftime, the team went from being behind to leading by 3 points.

The Hawks played a little unhappy. During the intermission, their head coach Mike Budenholzer arranged tactics and began to pinch James in the second half.

His idea is logically correct. If Wade doesn't play and strangles James, the Heat will definitely have problems.

But things are often not that simple. Everyone in the Heat can shoot three-pointers, and James will pass the ball to the open players outside the three-point line as soon as he pinches.

So everyone got a three-point chance, including Ray Allen, James Jones and others who came off the bench.

I'm afraid the Eagles have forgotten, James likes to play like this, rushing in and out for a point, and teammates outside the three-point line raise their hands, exactly the same as in training.

The Eagles rely on the inside to score points, and they are not so agile, so how can they compare to the Heat.

At the end of the third quarter, the Heat led by 10 points, and Zhang Xiaotian had already scored 12 points.

And because of Wade's absence, Spoelstra gave him the opportunity to bring a substitute alone.

At the beginning of the last quarter, Zhang Xiaotian got the ball right in his hand, and he immediately became energetic.

He called a cover and burst in with one step.

Before he could wait for the defense to come up, he immediately pulled up his shot, hit the shot with a bang, and then turned around handsomely, extremely chic.
