I am super giant

Chapter 238
However, what happened next was even worse.

The Cavaliers still fully suppressed the Heat, 3 minutes, 8:2, Stan Van Gundy even had to call the first timeout.

While Van Gundy was laying out tactics for the team, Pat Riley stood quietly with his arms folded and didn't say a word.

And it is this kind of plainness that makes people feel more and more unfathomable. Could it be that he has figured everything out a long time ago, so he is in control?
Anyway, Pat Riley is a fortune teller!
After returning from the timeout, the Heat really changed their offensive strategy.

The Heat gave up the advantage of the perimeter and took Odom as the core of the offense, using Odom's three threats to open the situation at the free throw line.

The 208-centimeter Odom can shoot, shoot, and pass, and every ability is not weak, so it is not easy to guard against.

To guard against this type of big man, you need a fast-footed, tall, flexible big man, such as Garnett.

However, the Cavaliers just don't have this type of big man.

Big Z can't keep up, Boozer suffers from height, Batty's defense is too bad...

The only one who can keep up with Odom is Darius, who plays the 4th position as a guest, but his tonnage suffers again.Once Odom hit the inside, he almost became a piece of paper, ready to break.

Thus, the situation on the field became clear.

The Cavaliers centered on Big Z, and the Heat centered on Odom. The two teams played offensive basketball.

On the defensive end, neither team can defend the opponent.

Of course, the Cavaliers are better than the Heat even though they are both offensive basketball players.

After all, the Cavaliers have many shooters to cooperate with Big Z, led by Ye Feng, Eric Williams, Kapono, all have good three-pointers, and even Boozer has a precise mid-range shot.

Especially Ye Feng and Kapono, those three-pointers are really scary, no matter which team they put them in, they are one of the best three-pointers, and their ability to open up space is extremely strong.

And the Heat lost here. Odom can make a good pass, but others can't make a shot. The loss is at the last moment of the shot. What can you do?
The first quarter ended at 25:18, and the Cavaliers led by 7 points in one quarter.

The atmosphere in the American Airlines Center arena is very wrong. Although the Miami fans are still cheering for the home team, they obviously lost the momentum of the start.

Originally, as long as the Cavaliers touched the ball, there was booing.

Now, the sound is much quieter.

No way, anyone who knows a little bit about basketball can tell that the Cavaliers are stronger and play better.

Although the Heat are also working very hard, but their strength is limited there, Pat Riley and Da Fan are hard to live without rice.

Ye Feng casually glanced at it, but was startled.

Beside the Heat's bench, Da Fan looked a little anxious.But the "magic operator" Pat Riley sat quietly on the sidelines.

A neatly combed white hair has witnessed his past glory. The showtime era of the Lakers and the "gorilla" era of the Knicks were all created by him.

How can such a person be underestimated?
He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with his hands crossed over his chest, with a calm expression on his face. He looked graceful and seemed unmoved by the situation on the field.

But anyone who knows him well knows that this guy has a violent temper that is different from his appearance, and he yells and curses when he moves. He is definitely not a good-tempered coach.

There is an obvious problem here.

Under normal circumstances, he would not be so polite to the players, nor would he be so quiet.

But tonight, he was so quiet again, as if the Heat's win or loss had nothing to do with him.

Ye Feng couldn't figure it out, so he could only comfort himself: Riley is a smart woman who can't cook without rice, and he knew that the Heat were weak, so he didn't have any hope of winning.

But no matter what, Ye Feng was still a little uneasy.

Shaking his head and rubbing his face with his hands, Ye Feng forcibly shook off these thoughts.

Why are you thinking so much?The most important thing is to play your own ball well, after all, the Cavaliers still have the upper hand.

Even if Riley has a back move, the soldiers come to block, and the water comes to cover up.

The second quarter is about to begin, with players from both sides playing.

At this moment, Riley, who had been sitting quietly for a while, suddenly grabbed Odom and said something to Butler.

The cameraman keenly captured this shot, and the big screen above the court also gave a close-up.

This picture made the Miami fans excited, and the magic operator is finally about to make a move!

Will this be the turning point of the game?
The game continues.

According to the usual practice, the Heat, which failed to open the jump ball, won the right to attack for the first time in the second quarter.

Wade dribbled the ball forward, and after a little observation in the Cavaliers' half, he shook his head helplessly.

The Cavaliers are still defending the false zone defense, and the defense does not defend the ball.

In this era, hand movements are huge, and physical confrontation is the most intense era in the NBA.Once defending the zone defense, it can kill almost any breakthrough player, no matter what level it is.

To break this situation, unless there is a shooter on the team who can break the zone defense with a three-pointer, the opponent's zone defense will shrink and shrink.

And the current Heat team just doesn't have such a shooter, so no matter how good Wade's breakthrough ability is, it will be limited.

Realizing this, Wade handed the ball to Odom and let Odom start the offense.

Facing Boozer, Odom feinted and broke through directly.

Boozer, who had been prepared for a long time, stepped back and blocked Odom's offensive line.

Unexpectedly, Odom is a fake move, the pivot foot does not move, the breakthrough foot is retracted, and a jump shot is made directly.

Swish!
A solid mid-range shot, 25:20, Odom narrowed the gap for the Heat.

After catching the ball from the bottom line, Ye Feng pushed forward without haste.

The core of this game is Big Z. Of course, the rhythm of Big Z must be the main one. It is impossible for Big Z to follow Ye Feng.

Regarding these, Ye Feng grasped them very well, allowing Big Z to play extremely comfortably.

The head coach Paul on the sidelines also nodded secretly.

Ye Feng played really well this time, not because of how explosive the statistics are, but because he grasped the rhythm very well. He doesn't look like a player participating in the playoffs for the first time, let alone a rookie. Like a battle-hardened veteran.

On the contrary, James did not perform very well.

In terms of regular season performance and statistics, James is better than Ye Feng.But in this game, James was a little lost.

The reason is also very simple. James' style of play requires teammates to play around him.But tonight, the tactics decided by the coaching staff centered on Big Z.

It can't be said that James' performance is not good, it's just not suitable for this tactical system.

This is impossible. Although the Cavaliers have decided to build a team with James as the core, James has obviously not grown to the level that can lead the team to win the playoffs.

So when the second quarter came up, Paul didn't even let James play, but sent Kapono. This is a tactic to maximize internal passes and external passes.

Ye Feng made a pass and handed the ball to Big Z steadily.

It seems that the Heat seem to have no intention of preventing the big Z from receiving the ball, and the defensive tactics are the same as before.

But soon, the Heat's changes appeared.
