The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 185 Routine young core
After the Heat led by 6 points and hit an 11:0 spurt, the Raptors requested a timeout and replaced Lowry and Valanciunas.

The Heat will not make this kind of mistake, James has rested and returned to the court.

After James came back, he scored points immediately. At this time, the defense of both sides is at the highest level, and the gap between James' level and DeRozan's level can be seen.

There is a gap in itself, and with Zhang Xiaotian showing off his power, it is impossible for the Raptors to evenly compete with the Heat.

Seeing that the team was about to fall behind to double digits, DeRozan finally hit two points.

But then James and Zhang Xiaotian made mid-range shots respectively, and the point difference widened instead.

With halfway through the last quarter, both sides put up the strongest lineup.

Because of the defensive effect on Lowry, the Heat's No. [-] position is Norris Cole.

Spoelstra is still good in such small details, and Norris Cole's defense is desperate enough to just affect Lowry.

Lowry's heart is also not big enough. Under Norris Cole's several pounces, the outside shot was missed again.

The heavy responsibility of scoring can only fall on DeRozan, but he is focused on marking by the Heat, and DeRozan can't go against the sky.

Valanciunas actually played well at the last moment and grabbed an offensive rebound to score.

It's a pity that it's too late, and Valanciunas is not the kind of insider who has enough threat to the Heat.

In the end, the Raptors, who were behind in the score, could only forcefully use the three-point tactics they were not good at, and the result of the game was already doomed.

105:95, the new year, the Heat started a new winning streak.

17 points and 4 rebounds. After coming to the Heat, Zhang Xiaotian did not score explosively, but his performance has become more and more stable, and he can give the team enough help.

As for the efficacy of the training room, Zhang Xiaotian has figured it out a little in the past few days.

他花费了6个胜利点把中投提升到了上限的78，然后用他最不擅长的盖帽进行试验，第1点提升只花了1个胜利点，第2点就花了3个胜利点。

In other words, the closer you are to the upper limit, the more difficult it is to increase the value.

Most importantly, the training room effect of the system is more than three times that of the display.

Because the training methods provided in the system are specifically aimed at improving the value of a single item, which cannot be done outside, so Zhang Xiaotian wants to improve his basic strength, and the training room is a very cost-effective place.

Compared to shopping malls, the victory points in the training room are worth more.

However, due to the upper limit of talents, shopping malls will also be a good choice in the future, but the victory points need to be accumulated slowly.

It can be expected that he will become stronger and stronger in the next few seasons.

His desire for the championship is also more eager. After winning the championship last season, he upgraded the system. If the system can be upgraded again, it is really exciting.

After winning the game and winning the championship, Zhang Xiaotian only felt that his fighting spirit was high.

He also used the reward, and spent it on the CIC. Judging from DeRozan's improvement, the CIC skill is still very practical.

Of course, this is also because the CIC is relatively close to the threshold of 80. For the few options that are close, it is relatively appropriate to improve the CIC.

After using the bonus, the upper limit of CIC has changed from 78 to 83.
He didn't consume the victory points right away, he trained outside first, maybe with the increase of the upper limit, he can improve without using the system's training room.

It's not because he is hypocritical, victory points are really not enough.

Next, he will selectively increase various values, and strive to come up with the most cost-effective plan, so as to improve his overall strength and become a more competitive player.

On January 1, Miami ushered in a team with a new name, the Pelicans, formerly known as the Hornets.

The new boss's name change plan was officially implemented in the new year.

Anthony Davis, the No. [-] pick of the Pelicans last year, has grown rapidly and has successfully become the new core of the team.

As an excellent insider on both offensive and defensive ends, Anthony Davis has improved the team's strength, and the Pelicans did play a few good games before.

But apart from him, the Pelicans no longer have players of this level. Coupled with the targeted measures taken by other teams after getting familiar with Anthony Davis, it is still difficult for them to become a playoff team.

The Heat switched to Norris Cole at the [-]st position, and they suffered a little injury, which is also part of professional basketball.

The Pelicans also suffered injuries. The absence of Ryan Anderson had a greater impact on them. It's not like the Heat just had a little trouble with the rotation. What they lost was an important scoring point.

The Pelicans are in the regular lineup, with Anthony Davis at the fourth position.

They were in trouble at the beginning of the game. Although Anthony Davis did not move slowly inside, he certainly couldn't keep up with James.

If you want to switch to Zhang Xiaotian, you have to come out. Once he comes out, the Pelicans' inside line is also empty, and James will still rush in.

If there is a conflict in the lineup, the weaker side must be the first to change. Although Anthony Davis showed strength at the beginning, blocking shots and stealing offensive rebounds, their defensive loopholes are too big.

So the Pelicans can only replace Tyreke Evans and play with the Heat's lineup. In fact, they don't suffer from playing height rebounds, but Anthony Davis has to work harder.

Bosh was blasted into slag in the contest of young people, but the Heat did not choose to attack.

They let Anthony Davis play, and at the same time defend their perimeter to cut off the connection between others and Anthony Davis.

This trick works well for young cores, and defensive adjustments after disrupting their rhythm can often work wonders.

On the Pelicans side, only Anthony Davis has an obvious advantage. Even if they see the Heat's conspiracy, they can only bite the bullet.

I have to say that Anthony Davis is strong. He scored a double-double in the first half. Most of the rebounds came from the frontcourt. He also had 3 steals and 2 blocks. He led the Pelicans to take the lead abruptly, but his consumption It is not small.

In the third quarter, the situation changed.

One is that the Heat's offense has become more ferocious, and the second is that some flanking attacks have affected the rhythm of Anthony Davis. After all, Anthony Davis is only a sophomore, and no matter how strong he is, he cannot continue to be strong under targeted tactics.

The other players of the Pelicans are used to playing soy sauce, and they are not used to it when the Heat's defense changes.

But the Heat are familiar with this situation. James stepped up the offense, and Bosh also started to fight back because of Anthony Davis' fatigue.

Seeing the Heat overtake the score and gradually expand their advantage, Anthony Davis can only lament that Jiang is still old and hot, and he has been tricked.
