Guard With a Knife

Reggie Miller's words sparked a strong backlash in Miami.

Pat Riley pointed out at the time: Michael Jordan is unsurpassable. Reggie Miller is just complaining about his career. I can understand his psychological projection of Snoopy. But this is unhealthy.

At the same time, he also emphasized: The series has just begun, and Chicago is just guarding the home court. The next away game will not be as easy as they imagined. At least the fans in the American Airlines Center Arena will never ignore the referee. Sexual punishment sits idly by.

Pat Riley's sour rhetoric earned him a $10,000 fine.

David Stern has always had zero tolerance for such insinuations that the league is unfair. What's more, he is suspected of inciting the home fans.

But Pat Riley's penalty did not cool down Miami's anger. On the contrary, the entire Florida media was in solidarity with the Heat. Their hunger for the Eastern Conference title is strong and real.

After all, the team spent a lot of money to form the Galaxy Battleship, and the top three giants formed a team. If you can't even cross Chicago, wouldn't it be a joke for the whole city?

Most importantly, Snoopy was traded from Miami. Heat fans firmly cannot accept this gap.

It doesn't matter if you were eliminated by the Bulls last year, but you can't lose this year no matter what.

No one can accept repeated disasters!

...

When the Chicago Bulls arrived at the Miami airport, they heard boos outside, and after checking into the hotel, there was a burst of gongs and drums downstairs.

Obviously, the Miami people don't want the Bulls players to have a good night's sleep, and they don't want them to appear in the American Airlines Center arena with full blood.

This kind of trick is not new in the playoffs. Since entering the 21st century, it has become a little more civilized. Back in the 80s and 90s, it was even crazier.

Snoopy is used to this, and he sleeps peacefully with earplugs on.

However, the game on the second night was a bit tough.

Because the Miami Heat changed their defensive strategy, they used Mario Chalmers to guard Snoopy, and Shane Battier and LeBron James blocked his drive near the free throw line. When he went deep into the penalty area, it was Joe Anthony and Haslem, the dry blue-collar workers, fought desperately.

This was originally Miami's slowing down strategy.

But I didn't expect it, and I got a miraculous effect. In the case of relatively loose penalties tonight, Snoopy did not get a foul for his first strong collision deep into the basket. Subsequently, his ONE-throw from beyond the three-point line also missed.

Although he can easily get past Chalmers' defense, Sean Battier and LeBron's defense time is tight, so he can only make jump shots, but can't take a stand-by shot.

But the jumper shooting percentage without a strong defense is really not stable enough.

bang bang bang!

In the first quarter, the little duke took 6 shots and only hit 1.

At the same time, Derrick Rose's touch is also very cold.

As a result, this made the Bulls enter the second quarter 8 points behind at the beginning of the game.

Due to the sudden decline in the hit rate of the two cores, under the leadership of Snoopy, the Bulls brazenly entered the Iron Lock Hengjiang mode.

The little duke's meaning is obvious: now our offense is misfired, so you don't even want to score goals.

The game devolved into hand-to-hand combat.

Snoopy faced LeBron James directly, and Dwyane Wade struggled under the joint response of Derrick Rose and Luol Deng. In addition, Asik, Joakinoah, and Ty Gibson are three defensive champions in the penalty area.

Throughout the second quarter, the Heat only scored 16 points.

The Bulls were even worse, with 14 points.

Therefore, the score in the first half made ESPN commentators dumbfounded: 42:32.

The Bulls' defense is really brutal!! Bill Walton couldn't help admiring: However, Snoopy's shooting is really iron tonight! 2 of 8 shots, 6 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds in the half 1 steal.

It was his worst halftime performance since the playoffs this season.

Judging from these pictures, the analysis article on the Internet is very likely to be true. McBrin emphasized while watching the replay: Look, Snoopy is in this not tight defensive situation. Didn't hit a single shot. Mario Chalmers couldn't stop his drive, but he choked off his jumper.

It sounds a little ridiculous. Reggie Miller snorted as a shooting expert: There has never been a situation in this world where shooting is more accurate under difficult conditions, but it is not accurate when there is no defense. What I want to say Yes, even the top shooters have cold moments, the first half was just an accident, maybe it will be recovered in the second half?

There are people who say anything on the Internet. It's like, I saw news on the Internet yesterday. Someone actually said that those duchess girls are discussing to marry Snoopy together, and they plan to form a foundation to buy a NBA team, as a way to counter his agent Daphne. Isn’t this nonsense? We need an Internet public opinion environment that needs to be monitored. The current situation is that anyone can say baseless things and still There will be a group of people dancing along!

Reggie Miller made an analogy. He pointed to Miley Cyrus and Jennifer Lawrence on the sidelines: Do you think they will sit together and have a peaceful meal?

His voice was deafening, like an old knight whose heart has been broken for justice.

This made it impossible for McBrin and Bill Wharton, who were sitting next to him, to continue their criticism. After all, Mr. Reggie Miller had given that article a nature from the very beginning: Internet rumors.

With his title of shooting expert, no one has the right to refute! !

...

But at this time, the puppy was speechless. Really bad feeling tonight, this bad refers to his one-shot. As for the jumper, that's what it has always been. Who knew that the Miami coaching staff actually listened to that article and actually sent Mario Chalmers up to defend him.

Isn't this a crooked attack?

He frowned depressingly.

The second half of the game came quickly, and the Miami Heat were like prisoners who picked up a gun. They had no idea of ​​​​substitutions at all: it was still Mario Chalmers vs. Snoopy. Frankly speaking, Chalmers didn't expect that one day he would be able to face the young duke, who was already in full swing, and gain the upper hand. This is so dreamy.

However, Snoopy entered the penalty area with a strong breakthrough to complete the score.

It's just that this scoring didn't make the Heat feel pain.

Looking back, although the Heat's offense is also in hell mode. But under the high-intensity defense, Wade still hit the emergency stop jumper tenaciously.

Looking back, Derrick Rose went to the basket and was blocked. Fortunately, Jokinoah had a sharp eye and quick hands, and he completed the layup when he picked up the basketball.

Then, Rose fell into a state of anxiety.

After trying to feel it, he found that it was still cold. Started to challenge the Heat's paint without fear.

I don't know if it's because of the collective protest of the Heat. Tonight's referee gave both sides a particularly large scale, and they hardly whistled.

So Rose's desperate style of play actually had little effect.

At the same time, the little duke was very worried that Derek would get hurt if he continued like this.

He said Rose many times that this tough style of play should be restrained, otherwise his entire career will be damaged.

But Rose is very resolute. This is a style that has been integrated into his bones, and it will not change for a while. Moreover, seeing the team stalemate, he felt obligated and responsible to use his performance to drag the team out of the quagmire.

well!

Snoopy sighed.

He blamed himself a little. He felt that if he could seize the shooting opportunity, even if he hit two more goals, he would not be in such a passive situation now.

boom!

In the seventh minute of the third quarter, Derrick Rose fell hard to the ground.

beep!

The referee finally blew his whistle and he gave Joel Anthony a defensive foul.

Everyone thought it was just an ordinary fall, after all, Rose had fallen to the ground at least three or four times before this.

However, it was soon apparent from Rose's painful expression that something was wrong. Snoopy quickly suspended the game, and the team doctor quickly came to the field for diagnosis and treatment. And quickly made a judgment: Derrick Rose dislocated his shoulder in the violent collision just now.

Although this is not a major injury, it is very troublesome. A little carelessness will lead to more serious and complicated injuries.

Therefore, after the team doctor reset, he terminated his request to continue playing.

He was replaced by Jimmy Butler.

After Jimmy Butler came on the field, he actually played a miraculous effect.

Not only did he back and forth with Dwyane Wade on the defensive end, but he also hit consecutive difficult jumpers on the offensive end.

This creates some opportunities for the Bulls.

Snoopy seized the opportunity and directed a wave of quick counterattacks. At the end of the third quarter, the point difference was narrowed to 3 points.

And Jimmy Butler was also named and appreciated by ESPN for his tough offense and defense.

The Bulls are full of talent. Jimmy Butler's strong performance is another testament to Gary Forman's draft vision. In time, he may become an elite star. But...

Speaking of this, Bill Walton couldn't help frowning again: The Bulls simply don't have enough playing time and tactical space to develop this potential shooting guard. Their current ball rights include Snoopy and Derrick Rose. Can’t be satisfied, plus Jimmy Butler. Alas! What a waste of talent!”

Bill Walton sighed.

What he didn't know was that Reinsdorf's heart was beating in front of the TV as he spoke. Although Jimmy Butler is an older rookie, the potential he has shown just now is really amazing. He did not fall behind in the confrontation with Dwyane Wade, and his cooperation with Snoopy is also so good Appropriate. This is talent! !

Why didn't I find it before?

He turned away.

Gary Foreman has already introduced: Snoopy likes him very much. Because he is very hardworking. Like Snoopy, he is the first player to come to the arena for training every day and the last to leave. In the last few games of the regular season During the game, Snoopy asked the coaching staff to give him plenty of playing time...the relationship between them is very deep.

Forehead….

With Foreman's words, Reinsdorf felt more relieved.
