Chapter 303 Winning Again

The Heat's strong start caught the Lakers by surprise, but the Lakers soon reacted.

In terms of round defense, the Heat have to play a lot for the Lakers. Although D'Antoni barely understands defensive tactics, the Lakers' defensive ability is very strong.

This is related to the defensive strategy designated by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Wu Di, and also related to the defensive ability of the Lakers players.Now the core of the Lakers' internal and external defense is Howard and Wu Di. It is said that the other three, Alian, Klay Thompson, and Jeremy Lin, have good single-defense capabilities. Substitutes Mahinmi and Jimmy Butler are also defensive champions and can be easily contained. Place the scoring player.

Wu Di singled James, pushed him into the penalty area, and then scored the ball with a hook.When Wu Di is free, he also follows Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in contacting hooks. Although he can't reach the level of sky hooks, most people can't prevent them. His strength and jumping ability are very high, plus his super long wingspan. Throwing the hook at the highest point can basically reproduce the sky hook stunt.

Wu Di's scoring broke the Lakers' scoring drought, and the Lakers gradually began to catch up.

After the Heat started with a wave of 7 points, although they did not stop scoring, their shooting percentage dropped significantly to a normal level.

Because it was the last game, the Lakers began to press defensively.In the previous few games, the Lakers didn't move and used big killers, just to preserve their energy.Now that it's the last game, there is no need to save energy, the Lakers immediately sacrificed this big killer.

Defensive pressing is the strongest defensive strategy, and the defensive enthusiasm is very high.Of course, it is also the most energy-intensive defensive method, but the effect is also significant, and the Heat quickly made mistakes.

Jeremy Lin intercepted Wade's pass, and Wu Di also grabbed a ball from James. The Lakers launched a 6-0 offensive wave and overtook the score.

The Heat called a timeout, interrupted the Lakers' rhythm, and immediately began to counterattack.After being coached by Wu Di in the previous few games, James has not recovered his physical strength, and now he can only try to avoid Wu Di to play.

However, Wu Di wanted to find him. After playing for a few minutes, James' physical strength appeared again, and he could no longer hinder Wu Di.

Fortunately, it was almost the end of the first quarter, and the Heat quickly replaced James to recover their strength and sent others to stand up to Wu Di.

But the others couldn't withstand Wu Di's impact at all. The only thing the Heat can do is to guarantee the score and not be opened by Wu Di.

Wade and Bosh immediately played pick-and-roll tactics, gritting their teeth to catch up with the score.

In the second quarter, Wu Di was on the court all the time, and there was no rest at all.Klay Thompson at the second position was replaced by Jimmy Butler, the two physical champions, and began to run wildly on the field.

The Lakers have sped up their offensive rhythm, which is a rhythm that the Lakers are now familiar with. D'Antoni has always wanted the Lakers to speed up, and the players on the team are all players who can run.Now the slowest player on the court, the United Arab Emirates, is faster than Bosh. There are often 2-on-1, 3-on-2, 4-on-3, and 5-on-3 situations in the frontcourt.

It became easier for the Lakers to score, and the Lakers retreated so fast that the Heat had no time to play fast breaks.There are only two guards that they can run fast. As for their inside, Bosh can run the best. Anderson and Lewis are slower than Bosh, and Haslem is slower than Anderson and Lewis. Launch a fast break.

Originally, the Heat could launch a fast break with James and Wade, both of whom have the ability to score alone.But now that James is off the court and Wade has Jimmy Butler following him all the time, it is very difficult to play fast break.

Soon, the court became the same situation as the regular season, and the Lakers actually started running and bombing.

The Heat players didn't feel very hot today, and they began to gradually lag behind the Lakers.

After the intermission, James played again.He feels very aggrieved now, he was the one who used up other people's physical strength before, but now Wu Di has used up his physical strength, and the stamina reserve is not as good as one game, and today he was beaten off in the first quarter.

James felt ashamed, so his face was always dark, even darker than usual.

James was brave after knowing his shame. After playing, he began to help the Heat score.

Wu Di didn't take a break for even one minute in the first half, and his physical strength was not very sufficient. For a while, there was nothing he could do against James.

But James has nothing to do with Wu Di. Both sides have one goal and one goal, keeping the point difference at about 10 points.

With 3 minutes left in the third quarter, Wade suddenly broke out, grabbed the basketball from Jeremy Lin, and scored a layup.The Flash writhed among several Lakers players, and was stunned to score the ball from among several defensive players.

Relying on Wade's explosion, the Heat finally narrowed the point difference to 4 points at the end of the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, the Lakers played a strange lineup, Ah Lian sat off the court, Wu Di went to the fourth position, and Jimmy Butler was on the third position.

This lineup paid off as soon as it came up. Howard and Wu Di joined forces to sit on the inside, froze to defend several offenses by the Heat, and sent out two blocks.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Lakers played another 7:0 attack wave, once again widening the point difference to more than 10 points.

The Heat still wanted to chase points, but facing the two defensive players inside the Lakers, his scoring efficiency dropped a lot.After Wu Di got inside, he played more smoothly. He can shoot from close range and attack from far away. If he encounters a double team, he can also pass the ball to Howard for a dunk.

With the final inside lineup, the Lakers managed to maintain their lead. By the end of the game, they were still leading by 8 points.

The Lakers won the game and the championship.

D'Antoni took over the championship trophy from David Stern. This is his first coaching championship, and his joy was expressed by his smile.

D'Antoni has been the best coach in the past, but that is only the honor of the regular season, which is incomparable with winning the championship.

The Lakers players all held the trophy joyfully and celebrated amidst the blessings of the fans.

The defeated Heat have already begun to leave.Before leaving, James glanced at Wu Di, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

Perhaps this has the same meaning as Zhou Yu's lamented sentence in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms": When Yu is born, why is Liang born?In the NBA, the biggest tragedy is living in the same era as God.The previous god was Jordan, but now the god is like Wu Di.

Jordan retired after three consecutive championships, and then paid for three consecutive championships.Wu Di was injured for three consecutive championships, and then won another championship, but I don't know if he can build a dynasty again.

The only thing that James is lucky about now is that he won the championship last year!
