The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 162 The Difference Between Strength and Weakness

The [-]st position is a pain for the Heat, Chalmers and the Norris Cole team are not satisfied.

Chalmers should thank Norris Cole, this guy is very hard on the court, but he is really not very good as a starter, so the team will continue to use him.

As for the inside, Bosh is at least one of the Big Three, and sometimes there are tactical reasons for the collapse of the inside.

The Suns only lost 3 points in the first half when the three-pointers were average, because the Heat had too few restrictions on their first position.

The Heat are also very aware of their problems. Although the organization can let James and Wade come, they must put someone in the first position. The poor team that has paid a lot of luxury tax has not enough people to play.

The Suns started the second half very well, but their lineup with Dragic as the core has a big problem, that is, there are no characters who can open up the situation strongly when they are in the ground.

On the Heat's side, James went in and out and made PJ Tucker foul three times.

After the Suns' defensive attention was forcibly attracted, Zhang Xiaotian and Ray Allen and Battier who played during the rotation period all scored three-pointers.

The score was gradually pulled apart, hovering around 10 points.

On the surface, the Suns seem to have back and forth with the Heat, but the weak defense has led to no signs of being able to recover.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhang Xiaotian scored first, then Ray Allen made two three-pointers, and the Suns collapsed.

In the last quarter, the Heat played very easily. Wade and Zhang Xiaotian led the team for half a quarter, James and Bosh led the team for half a quarter, and won the Suns without bloodshed.

Zhang Xiaotian had 15 points and 6 rebounds, and his performance was very stable.

Fourteen consecutive victories, one more win will tie the record, and there will be no ruthless characters in the next few games.

The outside world is already predicting that the Heat may create a new opening winning streak.

They will go on an away game next, and the first opponent is the Cavaliers.

Cavaliers player Dion Waiters said in a high-profile interview with reporters, "They will not succeed because I will not allow it. I don't care if they are the best team in the league. This is my home court."

"Zhang Xiaotian, no, no, I am concerned about James and Wade, and I look forward to playing against them."

The Cavaliers have struggled since James' departure, and every time James returns, there's something to talk about.

Now is the time when the Heat are about to set a record, and reporters like someone to speak harshly.

The Cavaliers also worked hard in the summer. They brought in former All-Star Andrew Bynum, and also selected forward player Anthony Bennett with the No. Help the team.

However, their current situation is not good. Due to injuries, Bynum does not have the means of the past, and the number one pick is also showing dissatisfaction.

Although Dion Waiters is good, his style of play conflicts with Irving, who they focused on training.

After the two started poorly, the team let Dion Waiters go to the bench.

However, this did not affect Waiters' self-confidence in the slightest. He firmly believed that he was the best player on the team.

Even as a substitute, he can prevent the Heat with the league's best record from winning at Quicken Loans Arena.

The so-called honey self-confidence is like this, but this player is still capable. The Heat really have to be careful. Most of the players who are self-confident in honey are crazy knives, and they can't be let easily.

Don't worry about Zhang Xiaotian, James, who has a good face, will definitely organize the team well when he goes to his old club. As for Waiters, Zhang Xiaotian doesn't want to respond at all. They have been teammates in the rookie game.

At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers took the lead in attacking inside. Although Bynum was not as good as before, he was still relatively familiar with the means of attack.

The key is that Bosh is in a bad state during this time, and maybe his mood is also on the one hand.

Heat has been winning streak, Bosh has not received much praise.

Because of the change of formation, Bosh often went to the inside to fight black and hard.

This is not something he likes. In essence, he is still a power forward. Before, it was more pleasant to have Haslem swearing at Bosh. Now playing center consumes a lot of money for him.

Of course, Haslem's current situation is not just a matter of style of play.

In addition, it hasn't been long since the start of the season, so it's normal that I haven't adapted yet.

So although the team is winning streak, not everyone is so happy.

Now facing Cavaliers Bynum and Tristan - Thompson's inside organization, the Heat frequently lost rebounds.

However, the opponent's offensive efficiency is really mediocre, and they had to start adjusting very early.

To be honest, the Cavaliers' starting position is not much better than the bench except for Irving, who is absolutely strong.

On their bench, Waiters needless to say, Jarrett Jack, Varejao and others are also experienced.

So after entering the rotation period, the Cavaliers' offense is much smoother.

The two sides fought very tangled for a while. The Heat's bench was basically full of old men. They were stable at critical moments, but usually they were not as impactful as young people.

Waiters is also worthy of the bragging before the game, and the offense frequently succeeds.

But there is a problem. His offense and the team's frequency are a bit different. When he scores points, the inside advantage is gone.

When the main players of both sides played and the Heat strengthened their defense, the Cavaliers' offense became a little troublesome.

Because they don't play the fastball type, and they hit the ball one by one. The Heat's defense on the outside is the top in the league.

As for the inside, the Heat have a way to deal with it after adapting, because the Cavaliers' inside is not top-notch after all.

The most important thing is that Irving is a bit iron, and he can't play this advantage. It is basically impossible for the Cavaliers to stop the Heat from advancing.

Their offense is blocked, but the Heat will not stop and wait. James and Wade are both types who can tear apart the opponent's defense.

Sometimes a player's ability seems to be only a little stronger, but just that little bit can create a completely different situation.

At the last moment of the first half, Zhang Xiaotian ignored the defense and hit a three-pointer, allowing the team to enter the intermission with a 10-point lead.

At the beginning of the second half, James continued to show off.

Seeing that the score gap widened, Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown couldn't sit still. He adjusted the lineup in 3 minutes and replaced the players with the strongest attack power to give it a go.

How should I put it, the score gap has not continued to increase, but the Cavaliers want to get it back, but they can't see the slightest possibility.

There are some problems with their lineup, and all players who can score need to hold the ball.

Owen, Waiters, Jack, and all of them are of average organizational ability.

It stands to reason that the Heat also have this kind of trouble, but James and Wade have stronger organizational skills, stronger defense, and stronger strength. This gap distinguishes strong teams from weak teams.
