The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 70 - : A little-known trouble

“For both teams, they definitely want to do everything they can to avoid a two-game losing streak. The Pacers are now in the limelight, and the Miami Heat are also trying to seize every opportunity to get on the right track. Today Dwyane Wade is on the line. The comeback is to improve the Heat’s record. Therefore, although this is just an ordinary regular season, the two sides will definitely play extremely well.”

When the starting players of both sides stepped onto the court, Kevin Harlan’s voice immediately appeared in front of the fans’ televisions. Harlan took a closer look, but found that there seemed to be an “outlier” in the Pacers.

“Danny Green, we have not received any news that Danny Green will start! Did you see Kenny, Coach Henson has changed his starting lineup again. At the third position, this is Heng already. Coach Sen has changed his starting candidate for the third time. Although Mike Dunleavy has never made a single-quarter three-pointer, he has always played well. I don’t know if Dunleavy is injured. After all, Dunleavy just warmed up. He was not absent. But apart from injuries, I really can’t think of any reason for Coach Henson to change the starting lineup.”

Kevin Harlan just thought it was strange, but didn’t question it. Henson’s thinking on employment is indeed very strange, but he has proved his employment strategy is correct more than once.

After the game started, the Pacers won the first strike on a rare occasion. Although the legendary Lithuanian center “Big Z” Ilgoskas of the Heat is 2.21 meters tall, he is taller than Hibbert, but he has experienced injuries and years of devastation, and now he can’t jump very much. . Horford used his own jumping to make up for the huge disadvantage in height, allowing the Pacers to get the first shot.

The Heat retired very quickly. It seems that the Filipino Spoelstra did not despise the Pacers like Pat Riley. At least on the defensive end, he still made some preparations.

People say that Spoelstra is just Pat Riley’s puppet, and Riley, the general manager, is actually in charge of the Heat’s tactics. But now it seems that this argument is self-defeating.

Spoelstra wanted to force the Pacers to slow down and force Henson’s team into a battle of positions. But don’t forget that even the Spurs, who have a strong ability to control rhythm, couldn’t do this at the beginning.

After Horford stood outside the three-point line, Ilgauskas of 2.21 meters instantly lost control of the penalty area. Without such a high point of restraint, the Heat’s interior looks extremely empty.

Holiday took the screen and passed the ball to Daniel Granger. Granger started after receiving the ball. Bosh, who had been chasing Granger, started to slow down. It seemed that he had given up defense.

However, just as Granger was about to dunk the ball into the basket, LeBron James rushed from the diagonal stab, and before Granger dunked the ball, he staged a tough attack!

“Block dunks, LeBron James! The Heat are different from other teams. Just pulling their center out does not mean you can do whatever you want in the Heat’s three-second zone! Because in Miami, there is an omnipotent James!”

James’ big presumption drew an exclamation from the American Airlines Center, and Henson shook his head helplessly. Granger’s shot selection was correct for the goal just now, it was indeed an opportunity. It’s just a player of LeBron’s level, he has this ability to turn corruption into magic.

The basketball hit the backboard hard and then rebounded vigorously. Wade, who came back from the line, received the basketball and immediately pushed forward.

What surprised Spoelstra was that Matthews and the little-known Danny Green had already retreated to their own half. He didn’t know when those two guys retreated. The Pacers’ defense did not have the kind of negligence that ordinary young teams are used to.

LeBron sprinted into the frontcourt immediately after the block was blocked, and then quickly attacked. Like Henson said, when you have a player like James, the coach has a lot less to worry about. The kid Spoelstra is really lucky.

Wade just passed the midfield line and passed the ball to James from the center. James held the ball and continued to hit the basket. The Heat switched offense quickly, so at this time the Pacers only had Danny Green in the three-second zone, and LeBron, who had already rushed to speed, obviously could not be stopped by a mere Danny Green.

Seeing LeBron this “heavy tank” rushing towards him, Green took a deep breath, staring at the basketball in James’ hands.

In the blink of an eye, James has stepped into the three-second zone and is about to start a three-step dunk. Fans at the American Airlines Center have stood up with their arms high, ready to cheer for James’ dunk.

“One step, two steps, it’s now!” At the moment James jumped up, Green suddenly cut to the basketball in James’ hands! Before James could lift the ball, he lost control of the basketball!

“The basketball is out of hand, incredible! Danny Green defended very beautifully, he used his own power to destroy the fast break the Heat were determined to win! God, this guy stopped the invasion of the Miami Kings!” Kevin Harlan The commentary jumped up. This steal is naturally not as popular as James’ blocking dunk, but Harlan can see the goose bumps!

Matthews picked up the basketball that was out of control, and the backcourt leader sent it to Holiday. Holiday received the ball and flicked a shot outside the three-point line, lighted Wade, and then made a breakthrough, hitting the ball from the mid-range position, a perfect counterattack!

“Extremely wonderful! The Pacers changed their offense too quickly, almost between flashing lights!” Kevin Harlan couldn’t help but applaud the highlight just now, from cutting the ball to the counterattack goal, the Pacers It took less than five seconds! James is still complaining to the referee about Green’s beater, but Holiday has already scored there.

One conversion attack followed by another conversion attack, this game ignited everyone’s blood from the beginning.

“Damn it!” James shook his arm unwillingly. He didn’t even know the name of the guy who was just in front of him, so he was snatched by the opponent.

“Danny Green made great contributions as soon as he came up. Have you seen Kenny? Coach Henson has made every adjustment to the lineup very targeted!”

Henson applauded Green with satisfaction. This guy may not be a superstar, but he will prove to the entire league that it is not only superstars that can survive in the NBA world!

In a blink of an eye, the Heat have attacked aggressively. LeBron James’s eyes looked extremely fierce. If he were to be another rookie, he would have been unconsciously scared.

Henson opened his left hand under the court, made a fist with his right hand, and then hit his left hand hard. This is the signal he gave to Matthews and Green, signalling them to directly attack James!

James received a pass from Wade on the right side of the three-point line. After receiving the ball, LeBron did not make any fake moves and directly started preparing to run into the penalty area. This seemingly unreasonable play is a typical LeBron attack.

If there is only one Danny Green, then James must have successfully made it in. But he had just started without two steps, but Wesley Matthews made it up. Last season, the two strongest wing defenders in the Development League blocked James’s way at the same time. Both Matthews and Green were extremely tough. When James was about to be forced to stop, he passed the ball to Wade who was emptied.

Henson became nervous. If there is no certain factor in this game, it is Wade’s state. He doesn’t know how good Wade, who has not yet recovered, can play. If Wade’s performance is not affected at all, then the Pacers’ strategy of attacking James will undoubtedly be difficult to implement.

Wade held the ball at the top of the arc outside the three-point line, but he knew his long-range shooting ability was not so good, so he took two steps in the past before he stopped shooting.

But the moment Wade shot, Henson found that the “Flash” was very awkward. His injured left wrist was unable to even assist in aiming.

Sure enough, the next second, the basketball hit the left side of the hoop, ridiculously crooked, and Wade missed!

“It seems that Dwyane’s injury is more serious than people thought.” Henson’s suspended mental arithmetic was implemented, and Wade returned after just a rest, still a little too hasty.

Horford took off the defensive rebound in front of the “big z” who couldn’t jump. No matter how fast the Heat retreated, it couldn’t be faster than the Pacers’ offense. After all, the current lineup of the Heat is not known for running.

When Holledi rode as a thousand, he swept across the midfield and quickly went to the basket. This is how the Pacers’ offense is, and it will not give the opponent any chance to breathe.

James followed closely, and he didn’t mind completing another shot.

Obviously, Holiday’s scoring ability has attracted the attention of many people. It is unrealistic for a point guard with no offensive threat to rely purely on passing to drive offense. After all, basketball is not football, and a point guard is not a quarterback who only needs to pass the ball. Therefore, Henson has never restricted Holiday’s offensive desire, so that he can produce offensive threats.

As long as Holiday can attract defense, opportunities for others will naturally come out.

Holiday made a layup, but passed the ball behind him before the jump! Danny Green keeps up with the ball and pulls up to a three-pointer!

1000 shots a day, 500 extras in the morning and 500 extras in the afternoon, Green never stopped. The basketball was hollow into the net and everyone looked at the guy who couldn’t be named in amazement. Can cut off LeBron’s fast break and make a three-pointer. Everyone is wondering where Henson got so many such players.

Henson was not surprised by Green’s performance. Everything Green has done now is the result of his thousands of times of sweat off the court.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Henson has studied the Heat’s current situation very clearly, including Wade’s injuries and James’ play. The Heat’s information about the Pacers may already need to be updated.

There is no doubt that they have no idea what Danny Green can do.
