Chapter 613 Encirclement and Suppression of Chaos

It is an undoubted truth that a strong team must be formed based on strong individual abilities.

Looking through the historical occasions of the NBA, there is no strong team that is not based on strong personal abilities. However, even so, there is no team in history with a lineup that is as strong and balanced as the Heat.

The five starters in the team are all ranked in the top 50 in the league, which is terrible, and more importantly, these players are all in their prime.

The Nets played the best start of the series at home, and gradually let the fans see the hope of winning. All Brooklynites and even cities in the United States except Miami hope that they can cause some trouble for the Heat, especially Los Angeles fans.

The reason why the Nets were able to play such an amazing start is because they regained their playing status at the beginning of the season. Before the start of the season, the management of the Nets hoped to build a team with Chris as the core, and hoped that Chris could lead the team to play pleasing team basketball. For this reason, the team did not hesitate to sign the Spurs coach: Daniel Carlos with a super contract.

The joining of Carlos did bring about a qualitative change in the Nets' style of play. He clarified Chris's position, allowed him to fully assume the role of organizing the team, and "replaced" half of the lineup for him. The Nets also kept pace with the Heat and the Lakers in record at the beginning of the season.

However, as the season progressed, each team gradually adapted to the Nets' style of play with Chris at the core. After cutting off Chris' connection with other team members, the Nets' record gradually declined. Even though Chriss can still average more than 10 assists per game, the efficiency is obviously not as efficient as it was at the beginning of the season.

As the Nets' record fell to the edge of the playoffs, Carlos was also dismissed by the league management. He took a salary of $45 million from the Nets in just 1500 games.

Then the Nets signed the team star Jason Kidd. Under his leadership, the Nets gradually stabilized their place in the playoffs and made it through the playoffs all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals.

During this period, Chris's data did not change much, but he obviously felt that the atmosphere of the team had changed, and his playing became easier.

Kidd helped the Nets regain team basketball.

However, in front of the Heat's team basketball, the Nets' team basketball does not seem to have much deterrent effect.

The Heat gradually entered the game state, and the score was catching up.

Swish! ! !
Just when the Heat were about to pursue the point difference, Kaos interrupted their momentum with an unreasonable ultra-long three-pointer.

That's right, if you have to find a player in the best condition from both sides of the game, then this person must be Chaos.

Only 8 minutes into the first quarter, Kaos scored in double figures and was the only player from both sides to score in double figures.

Kaos' goal poured cold water on the Heat like a pot of cold water, temporarily relieving the tight game form.

"Kaos has made 5 of 5 shots." Wade said, such a defensive efficiency is obviously unsatisfactory. He can get whatever he wants in front of Williams, and he doesn't feel any defensive pressure at all.

Heat fans miss Barrett very much at this time. If the "famous spy" is there, they will definitely give a strong response at this time.

"I'll double-team." Mu Chenfeng suggested.

Wade thought for a moment, then agreed, "That's the only way to go. Chaos must be restrained."

"Don't worry, Claude and I are on the inside." The two towers on the inside glanced at each other, "Although you all try your best to attack the outside line, the inside penalty area will be handed over to us."

With this sentence, the Heat's players are relieved, and they also believe that Gaia and Crowder can successfully complete the important task of inside defense
So Wade, Mu Chenfeng and Williams focused on the perimeter with all their strength, especially Chris and Chaos. Mu Chenfeng shifted his defensive focus to Chaos.

"Give me, this kid has already been blown away by me." Chaos was completely confident when facing Williams, ready to continue to attack this point. After all, it is not easy to find such an "absolute weakness" in the Heat's lineup.

When Chaos held the ball again and was about to "destroy" Williams, Mu Chenfeng suddenly moved across from the side and formed a double team with Williams.

The double-team was formed almost instantly, and Chaos could only be forced to stop his offensive plan.

Mu Chenfeng completely made up for the "vacancy" of Williams' defense, which happened to be the point that Chaos had been grasping.

"Do you think you can prevent me like this?" Chaos suddenly started, and broke through in the direction of Williams. Mu Chenfeng and Williams moved at the same time, but Williams' speed was obviously not as fast as Mu Chenfeng's, but he just happened to get stuck on Mu Chenfeng's moving line, which made Mu Chenfeng unable to move in place, and Williams was passed again.

"Double team? It's a joke."

Kaos rushed to the inside with the ball.

"Tell me that it was a double team?" In front of them, Gaia and Claude built a defensive barrier inside, with their arms raised high, waiting for Chaos' challenge.

Chaos did not slow down and continued to push forward. He is not the kind of guy who retreats in spite of difficulties. In his opinion, it is not a strong defense in front of him, but a good background.

With a leap, Chaos jumped into the air, Gaia and Claude also jumped up with all their strength, and the three faced each other head-on in the air.

"Get out of the way!" Chaos yelled vigorously, pressing the basketball in his hand towards the basket!

"That depends on whether you have the ability!!!" Gaia waved his hand, and slapped the basketball head-on, and the progress of the basketball stopped instantly.

Chaos and Gaia started a power confrontation in the air.

Chaos' strength is pretty good at the small forward position, but in front of real inside players, it's still not enough.

Chaos, who was pressing on with all his strength, still failed to break through Gaia's barrier, his body became unbalanced in the air, and fell towards the ground.

"Is there such a difference in strength?" Chaos landed in embarrassment. After all, he still underestimated Gaia's strength.

After Gaia fell back to the ground, she shook her index finger at Chaos who was lying at her feet.
