The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 165 Mental Fatigue
Zhang Xiaotian is a big heart known to the entire alliance, but in actual combat, opponents will always ignore him involuntarily.

It's not that he has a low sense of presence, but that his opponent's sense of presence is too strong. Many people despise him for hugging his thighs, which is right in a sense.

Many coaches in the NBA can see the state of a player after the game starts, and then speculate on the player's general performance in this game, and they will use this to arrange some tactics.

Being able to achieve the position of coach, it is definitely more accurate to look at the players.

There are only some All-Star caliber players who don't use that kind of experience to judge.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't reach that level, but he was an accident.

The teams that played against the Heat didn't deliberately ignore him, they were also betting.

There is no way, strong teams have too many people to pay attention to, they can only let the players pay attention, instead of stacking the team's strongest defense, that way they can't play the ball.

He looked mediocre in the front, so he probably won't break through and explode.

Zhang Xiaotian often uses actions to tell the other party that what they worry about will come true.

"Damn it." Steve Clifford cursed secretly.

Ending the Heat's winning streak is a good encouragement for a team like them that wants to rise.

If there is no way, that's all. Now that the situation is good, he definitely wants to fight for it.

The Bobcats immediately chose to make substitutions and replaced all the main players.

The Heat, who were still behind, were not in such a hurry. James and Bosh were still resting below.

After switching to the main lineup, the Bobcats scored inside. After all, Biyombo was not offensive during the rotation.

However, Zhang Xiaotian and Wade did not hesitate, they assisted each other and scored two points each without letting the other side open the score.

By the halfway point of the fourth quarter, the Heat also replaced the main players.

Ray Allen is not in good form and they don't need to worry about it. Chalmers' defense of Kemba Walker is a bit weak and they have to continue, because Norris Cole can't help it even more.

James had enough rest and came up to the inside to play 2+1, but Kemba Walker then hit a three-pointer to counterattack, and the score gap between the two sides was still 4 points.

Time entered the last 5 minutes, and the Bobcats still made consecutive hits inside, because Kemba Walker felt hot, and the Heat did not shrink rashly.

Another reason is that Bosh felt hot after resting. The Bobcats hit two two-pointers, but Bosh hit two three-pointers, so the score gap came to 2 points.

When the game entered the last 3 minutes, the Heat finally shrunk their defense and no longer gave the opponent the opportunity to easily play with the ball inside. It was time to decide the winner.

The coaches of both sides have already arranged what should be arranged, and now it is time to look at the performance of the stars.

Kemba Walker lived up to expectations and hit two points in singles again.

Kemba Walker is not tall, but Chalmers is about the same. Speeding up and pressing the jumper with an emergency stop, it is difficult for Chalmers to interfere more with the opponent.

James rushed inside with the ball again. Even if he knew he might pass the ball, the Bobcats had to guard against it.

Bosh was pulled outside the three-point line as before. James broke through and met the flanking attack and passed the ball out accurately. The Bobcats had expected that the defensive team turned to Bosh immediately.

Bosh threw the ball to the side, Zhang Xiaotian made a fake shot, hit the defensive player who was flying over, took a small step to the side and pulled it up, and the three-pointer hit the net.

95:95, 1 minute and 10 seconds, the two sides tied.

The Bobcats were obviously more impatient. They clearly led by 10 points at the beginning, and the chance to win the first team in the league is going to slip away from their hands.

They replaced the defensive leader Gilchrist and replaced the shooter with the intention of regaining the lead.

How should I put it, the result is not bad, Kemba Walker hit again, his hand is hot today, but what difference does it make if they are all singles.

The impact of this substitution is not over yet. Ben Gordon, who used to be a big heart, did not help after he came on the field, but James lost a point in defense.

James dribbled the ball to the three-point line and pressed inside, then stepped back and made a three-pointer.

At 98:97, the Heat took the lead at the last moment.

The point is, time is really running out, half a minute, the Bobcats must score.

Kemba Walker asked for cover, and the cat went inside to kill as soon as he was in his body.

Still the same choice, use the speed to rush to the free throw line and then pull up.

There is no problem with this trick being used repeatedly in the league, but when you meet the top teams in the league, you want to rely on this trick to get to the end. The young man is still naive. He thinks he is the god of basketball.

James and Zhang Xiaotian started and rushed over almost at the same time, seeing that Kemba Walker couldn't pass the ball like this.

Even if it is passed, he will not have a chance now.

Chalmers was thrown to the side, James rushed forward, his strong body completely blocked the opponent's sight, Zhang Xiaotian rushed over from the other side, Kemba Walker hadn't seen it yet.

This buddy didn't have time to think too much, and he still threw the ball in his hand like before.

Two big hands covered them at the same time, and both Zhang Xiaotian and James caught the ball leaving Kemba Walker's hands.

The dropped ball was caught by Wade and passed to James.

James signaled everyone to pull away and start controlling the time, and the Bobcats chose to foul.

James made two free throws, and there were more than ten seconds left. The Bobcats could choose a three-pointer or a quick two-pointer.

Zhang Xiaotian didn't care about the opponent's tactics, he distracted part of his attention to Kemba Walker.

The Bobcats really let him catch the ball after a screen. Unlike the Heat, they don't have many players who can attack with the ball, and they don't have a better choice.

With a three-point lead, the Heat must be sticking to the three-point line.

Kemba Walker rushed inside again, Zhang Xiaotian couldn't help but plan to flank him, seeing that the man he was guarding didn't move.

With a three-point lead, there is no need for the opponent to take the risk of two points, although he doesn't think Kemba Walker can pass it in an instant.

A two-pointer was hit, and after the Heat served, the opponent chose to foul again.

James made two free throws again. This time the Bobcats had no choice but to bet on three points.

The ball was sent to Kemba Walker again. Because he could not break through first, Kemba Walker hesitated a little and was forced to the side.

The countdown of the calculator was at the end, Zhang Xiaotian rushed over and stretched out his long arms to block the opponent's sight.

Kemba Walker had no choice but to barely throw the ball.

Three non-sticks, the time ran out, 102:99, the Heat won the first [-] consecutive victories.

Zhang Xiaotian scored 14 points and 4 rebounds. After the game, he said in an interview: "They played well. We were passive for a while, but the results showed that we were stronger."

"It really doesn't matter what the winning streak is. The team's goal is the championship, which has never changed."
