NBA: I am the card dealer
Chapter 155 The first game after the transaction
Chapter 155 The first game after the transaction
After two days.
The Heat finally got their game, heading to Indiana to challenge the Pacers away from home.
PJ Tucker and Marcus Morris have passed their physical examinations and can play in this game.
Batum arrived a day late and needed an apartment and did not travel to Indiana with the team.
Returning to this familiar city, it stands to reason that he should be in a very beautiful mood, but Bosh's face was sultry along the way, as if he was about to explode at the drop of a hat, and there was an invisible aura of depression hanging over him.
Not only was his mood not beautiful, but everyone on the team, including Spoelstra, was affected by this depressive atmosphere.
Everything he did or said he did seemed cautious, as if he was afraid of making any noise and detonating Bosh's powder keg.
Xue Liancheng didn't think it was anything.
What's pitiful is Uncle Wei. He tried every possible means to please him and flattered him in every possible way along the way. People who didn't know better thought he was Bosh's lackey.
But Bosh kept his cold face and didn't give Uncle Wei a good look.
So damn...
Sometimes, Xue Liancheng's blood pressure soared, and he really wanted to pull Uncle Wei and tell him to stop making trouble.
If he doesn't hold it in his mouth, he won't hold it in his mouth. Anyway, he never expected anything from Bosh.
After all...Bosh is about to be retired this season. Next year will be even worse. Blood clots will run into his calf and he will retire directly.
Bosh can do whatever he wants.
But in the end, he still didn't do it.
Because the relationship between Wade and Bosh is better than his own, it is obviously redundant for him to stand up now...
Conseco Arena.
Amidst the flashing lights, DJ took the lead in shouting Bosh's name.
Then there's Whiteside, P.J. Tucker.
"Next, let's welcome Dwyane Wade from Marquette University, wearing jersey No. 3."
The on-site commentator was stunned on the spot, "What's going on? Is Xue coming out?"
Because the order of appearance in the NBA is also particular, usually the second in command is the first to appear, followed by the other starting players.
The final winner is undoubtedly the team's star.
Xue Liancheng hasn't come out yet, but Wade has come out first, which is obviously against the rules.
Another commentator also wondered, "Probably not..."
At this moment.
The DJ's passionate shouts were as exciting as a fighter jet flying through the sky, "Now we're inviting our spirited young man from the Indiana Mountain People, this year's super star, Xue Liancheng..."
The cheers were deafening.
Countless people held up signs and kept swaying in front of the camera. It was a young photo of Xue Liancheng when he was a member of the Indiana Mountain People.
This shows the city's love for Xue Liancheng, or to be more precise, he is the city's child.
When the children come home, they naturally welcome them.
no doubt.
Now Xue Liancheng has become the pride of this city.
Although the Mountaineers he led stopped in the top 32 of the championship, Xue Liancheng incredibly performed superbly after entering the NBA league.
Honor Indiana University! Adding color to the city of Indiana.
"This...what exactly is going on?" The commentator was very confused.
Another commentator suddenly thought of a possibility, "Xue is from the Indiana Mountain People, and this is his home field, so there is nothing wrong with him being the finale."
The commentator nodded in agreement, "Yes! That should be it. Xue has returned home, and he should enjoy this treatment."
Xue Liancheng's final appearance also aroused the doubts of the Pacers, but they also thought that this was a courtesy from Indiana to Xue Liancheng.
Before the game starts.
Xue Liancheng sensibly went over to hug Vogel and greet him.
Although he did not play in this arena during the championship, strictly speaking, any player from the Indiana Mountain People is considered a half owner of this arena.
Like Oladipo, he also has good treatment.
This is the strange place of rice grain country.
After the hug, Vogel smiled and said, "It's a pity that you were intercepted by Miami, you know? I lost sleep for a long time."
Xue Liancheng didn't believe this kind of nonsense, but he still replied politely, "Then next time you meet a kid from the Mountain People, you have to hurry up."
Vogel quickly assured, "That's for sure, but I think this arena needs you more. They want you to be the owner here."
Such open poaching...
Why did you go there before that?
He fell to the second round, and the Pacers didn't even pick him... ugh! It seems like the Pacers don't have a first-round pick this year.
That shouldn’t be the case!
Since he loves him so much, trading a first-round pick is not out of the question.
So say it!
The Pacers snapped off their thighs, and their intestines are regretful.
This kind of thing sounds nice, but Xue Liancheng won't take it seriously at all, "I also want to come back here, but Riley has already shackled me, so I can only express regret."
But Vogel climbed up the pole, his eyes brightening, "Your words are enough. As long as you nod and are willing to come back, we will find a way to get you even if we pay all the costs."
Xue Liancheng: "..."
I lost it!
I said sorry, are you still here?
But he still said, "Looking forward to your performance."
From the looks of Riley, he doesn't look like an idiot.
and so.
This is definitely just gossip, just forget it.
But Vogel seemed to take it seriously and was extremely excited, "Xue, just wait, I will definitely take you home."
puff!
A mouthful of old blood was almost spurted out.
Save it, brother! Almost done...
Xue Liancheng: "I'm looking forward to it too."
After finishing speaking.
He didn't stop.
Go back to your queue.
With Paul George's broken leg and Stephenson's departure, this year's Pacers are in a very difficult situation, with only a record of 11 wins and 12 losses, which is far from last year's style of ranking first in the Eastern Conference and reaching the Eastern Conference Finals.
For the current Pacers, the three names that can be called are Roy Hibbert, David West, and George Hill.
Their defensive skills are still there and they are one of the best defensive teams in the league.
But on the offensive end, without George, it was immediately compromised. It is one of the worst offensive teams in the league. So far this season, it has scored 70+ points in three games. Do you dare to think?
You know, the Warriors, who currently have the league's No. 110 offense, have averaged over points per game. However, the Pacers are still stuck at the level of scoring during the melee era of the last century. If you don't have difficulty, who will have difficulty?
But despite this, the Pacers are still in the playoff queue, which is a tough nut to crack.
The game officially started soon.
Whiteside and Yuanyuan jumped the ball, but in the end it was Whiteside who came out on top.
The Heat's first attack.
Xue Liancheng quickly pushed the ball over and was shocked to find that Bosh didn't go to the wings at all. Instead, he stood at the free throw line and reached out for the ball.
What the hell...
This is blatantly going against Spoelstra!
He even had no scruples in provoking his new boss.
Do it this way.
I can't directly deal with Whiteside. I don't know where to stand, whether to stay away from Bosh, or whether to bring it up for the pick-and-roll...
At this moment.
Uncle Wei's voice came, "Xue."
Xue Liancheng smiled and passed the ball without saying anything.
Fine……
Just look at what the team will do with you as the offensive pivot.
The result was no surprise.
Bosh went into singles, carried David West for two steps, and then turned over and shot a jumper.
It seems to feel good.
bingo!
Xue Liancheng's mentality is still very good. Although he and Bosh are now in conflict, one yard is the other. As long as Bosh makes the shot, it will undoubtedly be a good shot.
After all, the purpose of basketball is to score goals.
Don't care if it's singles, overpowering, or coordination, tactics, and scoring goals.
All the other bells and whistles don't matter.
When retreating quickly, Uncle Wei hurried over and comforted him, "Xue, don't be angry, let him attack two first, and calm down."
Xue Liancheng nodded and said, "Okay."
While talking.
He glanced at Uncle Wei and secretly felt a little funny.
Is he such a stingy person?
As a leader, strength is indeed the first choice, but if there is no courage, he believes that such a person will not be able to lead the team further.
Even someone like me, James, who has a super possession of the ball, knows to share the ball with Irving.
Naturally, he won't mind and let his teammates perform, even if this teammate is very difficult to deal with.
Ok……
If he stares at the ball all day long and refuses to touch the ball, if it is a crime to touch it, he feels that this is not a leader, but a cancer.
Just finished here.
Uncle Wei gave a thumbs up to Bosh, who was running over, and shouted loudly, "Good shot..."
Xue Liancheng saw this and sighed secretly, Uncle Wei is really busy!
Here he is coaxed like a parent coaxing an aggrieved child.
There, they sent sugar-coated bubbles to Bosh like a grandson.
It’s really hard for me, Uncle Wei!
I just stepped down from the leadership position, and before I had time to relax, I had to throw myself into a new role and was exhausted.
The Pacers.
Hill's touch is also very good. After rushing in, he can also make a pull-up jump shot.
And here's the weird thing. Bosh had no intention of giving up the game, and didn't even have a negative attitude. He defended very seriously.
When Hill rushed in, he also helped Xue Liancheng block people, and the defense was in place. Hill just felt better.
Outsiders can't tell at all that there is a conflict between the two.
Look back.
Xue Liancheng pushed over quickly, but Bosh was still stuck at the free throw line and reached out for the ball again.
After a short pause, he still gave it.
Other teammates were at a loss, especially Whiteside and P.J. Tucker.
Tucker is better. His current offensive role is to lurk in the bottom corner to open up space.
of course.
The ball wasn't even moving, and there was still room for hair. All I could do was stand there like a fool, waiting to see Bosh play in singles.
And Whiteside is even more unlucky.
He has no three-point ability, and he can't even shoot from mid-range. He is only suitable for finishing at the basket and waiting to eat the pie.
Bosh was stuck at the free throw line, he didn't run well, and he couldn't use the pick-and-roll, so he could only wander around the basket, not knowing what he was going to do, what he could do...
He really turned into a big stupid man.
In fact, Uncle Wei is similar. Without the possession of the ball, his greatest strength is cutting to finish at the basket. Now that someone is at the free throw line and another teammate is at the basket, he can't run at all.
His sharp sword became useless and rusty in an instant...
On the contrary, Xue Liancheng is much better. He has a three-point threat, so after giving the ball, he only needs to walk along the three-point line to create a comfortable singles space for Bosh.
And at this time.
To say that the most uncomfortable person is none other than Spoel on the sidelines.
His old face was completely black, and he stared coldly at Bosh on the court, with the urge to rush onto the court and crush him to ashes.
What the hell...
There are only four players left in the starting lineup, and they are just watching you play in singles. How many singles can you play?
Can you kill someone in a single fight?
The answer has been verified countless times and it doesn't work at all.
This is actually not the point.
Singles are singles. Many stars are keen on singles. Occasionally using their personal abilities to solve problems is not a problem at all.
The problem is that Bosh tampered with his tactical arrangements, completely ignored his words, and insisted on going it alone, which was tantamount to challenging his authority as the head coach.
Such behavior made him very angry, but there was nothing he could do about it.
There is absolutely no way around it.
Because that is Chris Bosh, one of the Big Three of their team, one of the strong points of the offense, and an All-Star who can stand up and solve problems in the tactical system.
What can he do to Bosh?
There was nothing he could do, he could only stare blankly and grit his back molars.
finally.
Bosh spun around and hit another turnaround jumper.
This time.
Ironclad.
Spoelstra's face on the sidelines turned even darker.
Pacers attack.
The outside line moved several times, and Stucky rushed into the penalty area, picked up the basket and hit it again.
The Pacers players looked pretty good today!
Off-site attack and defense.
Xue Liancheng still pushed forward quickly, but this time he didn't wait for Bosh to come to his position, he increased his horsepower, rushed into the inner lane quickly, and made a regular two-lane assault with Wade.
Uncle Wei pulled the lever up and hit the basket.
Things don't seem to be that bad either.
But obviously.
The appearance of a person who is outside the tactical system in the team will cause great harm to the team itself.
As long as the ball is in Bosh's hands and wants to come out, there are only three possibilities.
First, there was a double-team. At this time, Bosh was willing to pass the ball.
Second, he will only pass the ball to his teammates when they have an absolute chance to score.
Third, when the offense is blocked, Bosh will not hesitate to share the ball.
Uh…
There should be another situation, that is, when it is almost twenty-four seconds, he will occasionally pass the ball out.
Just occasionally.
Sometimes, Bosh will force shots against people.
In this way, the team will miss many scoring opportunities, and the offensive rhythm will be stagnant from time to time, like constipation.
When the regular time was rotated in the first quarter, the Heat were already 18 points behind the Pacers at 27:9.
In fact, being behind is not terrible.
The scary thing is that before the first quarter is over, the Pacers have already scored a full 27 points. For a team that averages only 97 points per game, you can imagine what it means.
That's right!
It's okay if the Heat can't attack, and they can't defend.
You can't blame Bosh for this, because PJ Tucker and Whiteside have just been brought up to start. Although their personal defensive abilities are very strong, they don't cooperate well!
For example, when guarding a pick-and-roll, one player wants to switch defenses, while the other thinks not to switch defenses.
For another example, I thought you would come up to cover the ball, but you thought I would block it. In the end, neither of them moved and watched the basket go empty.
There is nothing we can do about this.
New players often have this common problem when integrating into a new team.
It takes time to adjust.
Another point.
It shows that the Pacers players feel really good in this game.
Spoelstra made a decisive decision, took Bosh and Whiteside, and kept Xue Liancheng, Wade, and PJ-Tucker.
The replacements were Marcus Morris and Haslem.
This time.
The team is completely in Xue Liancheng's hands.
Originally, he thought he could take this opportunity to make a charge and bring the score back.
As a result, he was double-teamed on all three breakthroughs and had no choice but to distribute the ball.
A turnover occurred and Marcus Morris failed to react and catch the ball.
Two iron strikes, contributed by PJ Tucker and Uncle Wei.
In addition, the Pacers' defense is really fierce, and they are very fast in assisting defense. After he passes the ball, his teammates can only hesitate for a moment, and the chance is gone.
at this time.
Only Xue Liancheng and Wade's two-person connection can barely stabilize the situation.
The second quarter begins.
Xue Liancheng and Wade both rested off the court, and Bosh led the team alone, and the situation became even worse.
In the face of the Pacers' frenzied attack, Bosh made frequent mistakes, coupled with various hasty shots, causing him to cast more and more iron.
Chalmers couldn't connect the team, so he was fighting alone, and the court was in chaos.
When Xue Liancheng and Uncle Wei reappeared, the Heat were already 18 points behind.
Shocking!
Since Xue Liancheng joined the Heat, the most embarrassing game was the game where the Jedi came back against the Eagles.
But that game was won.
And now, they would be forced into such an embarrassing situation by a team that was lingering in the playoffs. This was something he never expected.
He had a vague feeling that this game was a bit unlucky.
Because Bosh insisted on playing, the ball couldn't move at all, and his teammates couldn't move.
Even if he is possessed by the god Da Luo, he can't lead such a team to make a comeback against the sky!
What's more, the addition of new teammates has caused big problems in their defense and offense.
There were many balls that had a chance, but Xue Liancheng really didn't dare to pass them because he didn't know the receiving points, receiving habits, or jumps of P.J. Tucker, Marcus Morris, and Whiteside. The speed of the bullet, the height of the jump, the range that the wingspan can reach, and even the speed, whether the concentration is enough, etc.
Anyway, a series of problems prevented him from taking the risk of passing the ball, because in fact, he had made four mistakes so far.
This will undoubtedly miss a lot of opportunities.
That feeling.
It's like being tied hands and feet, unable to fully use it.
