The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 164 New Record

When Lowry broke out, the Raptors were only 6 points away from catching up.

But their defensive problems have not been resolved, and it is actually unwise to forcefully compete on the outside.

You know, the Heat are much better than them when it comes to three-pointers.

As soon as he played in the fourth quarter, Zhang Xiaotian once again widened the gap to 10 points with a two-pointer.

After Zhang Xiaotian activated the skill, Rudy Gay's iron voice became more frequent.

The scary thing is that Lowry and DeRozan have also turned iron. Before halfway through the fourth quarter, the two of them have played for almost 40 minutes, and the decline in physical strength is normal.

The Heat have a normal rotation, and James, who played the longest, only played 30 minutes.

Under DeRozan's defense, Wade was a bit tough, but it didn't matter. At this time, Zhang Xiaotian's attack power finally broke out.

He and James hit the Raptors' inside line continuously, and the scoring efficiency is not to mention overwhelming, which is much higher than that of the Raptors.

At this time, Raptors head coach Dwayne Casey has nothing to do, and he may also feel that he can confess. It's not that they don't work hard, but that the Heat are too strong.

The Raptors, whose physical strength declined in the final quarter, only scored 13 points. The Heat beat their opponents 97:83, starting with a [-]-game winning streak, and a new record was born.

Every next victory will be a new record, but the team will definitely not pursue it deliberately.

Compared with a record that doesn't have much impact, they care more about the health of the players and the final championship.

With a complete victory in November, the Heat's management is also very pleased.

In the new year's All-Star voting, the Heat also reported Zhang Xiaotian's name.

Fans of Zhang Xiaotian appealed to vote for him one after another, and Yang Feiyu even contacted fans from all over the world to organize several small activities.

However, the Heat have the Big Three. Unless the fans put him in the starting lineup, he basically has no chance of being an All-Star.

He has a large number of fans, but it is basically hopeless to top the starting lineup.

If he had chosen to rebuild the team and become the second-in-command, he might have had greater hopes. Now it may not be easy, but he doesn't have much obsession with the All-Stars.

The current choice is the result of his rational thinking. His career is still very long. When he truly has the strength of an All-Star, I believe it will not be too difficult to be selected.

"Actually, you still want to be an All-Star in your heart?" Yang Feiyu teased.

Zhang Xiaotian smiled calmly, "No normal person would want to be selected, I just have a good attitude."

"Then I will do activities to support you with peace of mind. Now I have regained the confidence to start a business. I hope I won't be hit again."

Entering December, the Heat are back at home.

Their seasons are not bad, this refers to the interval of the schedule, and the opponents do not have a particularly ruthless role.

So some sunspots outside said sourly that they were able to set the record because their opponents were too bad, and they manipulated the schedule.

Zhang Xiaotian was very relieved to know that the team had such great energy.

It's a pity that he is a public figure now, and he can only watch Yang Feiyu often organize people to fight.

As an athlete, he doesn't have time for things like playing a trumpet. In his spare time outside of training, he might as well play games with his wife, um, various games.

The first to challenge them in December is the Bobcats. The Bobcats have not been bad this season, but they have made great progress compared to last season.

Fighting the Heat again, Kemba Walker finally showed the offensive power of the team's outside core.

In the match against the Heat, the inside line depends on whether the Heat are flanking. As long as the first position has strong attack power, it will definitely be able to explode.

Of course, breaking out is not the same as winning a game. The Heat's weaknesses are well known, but knowing and doing are different.

Kemba Walker was able to attack recklessly because of the presence of Al Jefferson. Bosh has not been in good form in the past few games. He even committed six offenses against his old club in the last game, but this game may The reason is that he talked with the coach, and the offense has regained his style, but he is obviously powerless about rebounding.

Vitality outside, rebound inside, this is the right way to deal with the Heat, the Bobcats did a good job, so they took the lead in the first half.

It's only leading by 1 point, because in order to beat a strong team like the Heat, in addition to offense, defense is also needed.

The Bobcats' defense is quite satisfactory. It is no problem to beat the average team, but to beat the top teams, you need to break out on both offense and defense.

The Heat are a little tired after setting a winning streak at the beginning, but they will not be easily pulled down.

Gilchrist, Jeffrey Taylor, and Josh McRoberts took turns defending James, all of whom were fouled.

This kind of thing Zhang Xiaotian can only sigh, he is afraid that he will not be able to enjoy the strongest blocking treatment of his opponent this season. Unlike Leonard, James' offensive power is recognized. It's James.

In this case, I don't know whether it is good or bad.

What he can do now is to seize the opportunity and give the opponent a fatal blow.

Sometimes his style of play is not so concise, but he doesn't want to be reduced to a pitcher who is completely dependent on James. Sometimes there is still a slight conflict between personal development and team development.

This is why the Heat sometimes let James play with a substitute shooter in chasing points, and the single-core core can attack the opponent's defense without any scruples.

But to form a stronger lineup to pursue the highest honor, everyone will have to sacrifice.

At halftime, Spoelstra said nothing for the first time.

The purpose of the team is very clear, it is time for the players to relieve pressure.

The Heat's players are indeed a little tired, not physically, but mentally. After setting the record, they were too excited, and then they felt something was wrong.

In the second half, the Heat, who did not tighten up, made several mistakes in a row.

The Bobcats seized the opportunity to make consecutive hits, coupled with the advantage of rebounding, they suddenly overtook the score and led by 10 points.

James suddenly became a little unnatural. He was not worried about losing, but he also didn't want to be taken down casually.

However, Zhang Xiaotian was the first to make an effort for the Heat. Zhang Xiaotian had limited time to explode, and the time was not arbitrary, so he felt a little uncomfortable in every game.

At the end of the quarter, he didn't feel well all over if he didn't play a few times.

In this game, Ray Allen felt too bad, and Bosh's rediscovery can only be regarded as filling his part.

So after James left the court, Zhang Xiaotian didn't think about passing the ball anymore.

Taking advantage of the absence of the Bobcats' main force, he actively asked for the ball and played three consecutive games.

Bobcats head coach Steve Clifford was a little caught off guard. He was thinking about the tactics to end the Heat's winning streak, but Zhang Xiaotian suddenly exploded.

Most teams are not used to Zhang Xiaotian's state changes during the game.
