The Rest, Only Noise

Latest website: 118 to 101

In Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals, the Celtics beat the Heat by 17 points and got off to a good start in the conference finals.

The decisive moment of this game was the four minutes when Yao Yue came off the bench to crush the Heat's second team in the second half of the quarter.

During those four minutes, he once thought he was a CBA abuser in China—oh, he has never played CBA, but he felt that if he played CBA, he would be like this at most, and he couldn’t be so outrageous that he averaged 30 points, 20 rebounds and 5 blocks per game. Bar? —Although the Heat's second team also included Liu Yuqing and Ray Allen, both of them were a bit off-point during that time.

And the Heat's substitute insider, like Yao Yueban's former teammate Maurice Taylor PF, entered the league in the same year as Duncan and averaged 15 points per game for four consecutive seasons with one shot. The team enters the lottery and gets traded. The other is Dale Davis, who is so old that people doubt that he has no NBA-level strength.

Putting these two in front of Yao Yueban, they would naturally end up being blown up.

In that short 4 minutes, Yao Yueban scored 90% of the team's points. He scored 14 points like a stream flowing down the river, widening the gap in one breath. to 19 points.

The Heat had to let the main players return to the field early.

This change completely disrupted the Heat's rotation arrangement, and it also prevented Duncan from getting enough rest time.

In the second half after that, the Celtics held on tightly to the lead, leading by 24 points at most, but the Heat were not the kind of team that would collapse psychologically because of too large a point difference. The gap loses the game.

After the game, Donovan expressed envy for the depth of the Celtics lineup.

"It's unbelievable that Coach Lu can even substitute a team of players."

Louis thought, can't believe it? If Duncan was at the level of the previous few years, he would never dare to win the second-class horse and beat the first-class horse.

But Duncan has now lost weight to play the fourth position. For a player like him, even if he loses weight, it is a super high level, but before losing weight, he was undoubtedly the level of the league's number one player.

After losing weight, he went from No. 1 in the league to the top five in the league. For insiders, weight is combat effectiveness. This is not to say that the bigger the weight, the better. Every player has a corresponding load-bearing limit. Take Yao Yueban as an example. At 130KG, he can maintain his amazing athletic talent at the same height. Stamina will drop, but low-post damage will go up. Therefore, for him, continuing to gain weight can increase his single-point threat to the extreme, but due to impaired endurance, the strength obtained by breaking the body's weight-bearing limit is destined to not last long.

Every big man who wants to make a difference on the court needs to figure out the optimal weight without compromising his dynamic talents.

Duncan now has to give up his best weight in exchange for a longer career.

But it would be wrong to say that the Heat lost tonight because Duncan didn't beat the Celtics' low horse.

Both sides know that this round of the series is all about offense.

The Celtics are all soldiers and have played their own style, while the Heat have no offensive system engine. There are good players like Ray Allen, Stephen Jackson, and Liu Yuqing on the periphery, but they can only fight on their own, and it is difficult to unite in one place. .

Now, they must seriously consider the return of Arenas.

There is one more game.

After playing the second game of the Eastern Conference finals, Arenas was lifted, but it is hard to say whether his return is an opportunity for the Heat to return to the top, or an abyss of eternal doom.

Yao Yueban was the happiest person tonight. He played 27 minutes and scored 34 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks.

Dealing with the Heat's bench is simply easy.

At the press conference after the game, Yao Yueban said excitedly: "Like many people, I was puzzled by Coach Lu's arrangement before the game, but it turned out that this strategy was successful. It was handy and made more reasonable use of our advantage in the depth of the lineup to defeat the Heat."

Then, a reporter asked Yao Yueban whether he would continue to be a substitute in the next game.

It was impossible for Yao Yueban to answer this question that even he himself did not know.

"Maybe, stay tuned."

Lu Wuxia, another main player of the Celtics, changed his dazzling performance against the Cavaliers in the semifinals, scoring "only" a triple-double of 18 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists in the game.

Lu Wuxia was asked about Arenas.

Some people believe that as long as Arenas returns, the Heat will become the team that was feared last season.

Therefore, some reporters brought this issue to Lu Wuxia, hoping to hear his opinion.

"In fact, no matter whether he comes back or not, this is a daunting opponent." Lu Wuxia asked with a smile, "Which one of you is not afraid of a colleague who carries a gun with him at work? Anyway, I am very afraid. Fortunately, there is no one in our team. That kind of people."

Wuxia's remark meant adding salt to Arenas' wound, but considering the dispute between them, it's not surprising to do so.

Arenas was defeated by Lu Wuxia before being suspended for 40 games.

At that time, Arenas, as the loser, clearly expressed his disdain for the Celtics, which was the reason for his feud with Wuxia.

Now that the show is over and the stage is set, some people even want to skip Game 2 of the conference finals to see if Arenas will return in Game 3.

On the other side of the Western Conference finals, the Suns vs. the Lakers, it can be said that sparks flew in the first game.

Compared with the Lakers, the Suns have a more reasonable lineup and better depth.

Moreover, the Suns are different from the Lakers. Their bench is full of veterans who want to catch the championship express.

Like Robert Horry and Gary Payton.

The first game was also Horry's key three-pointer, which made the Lakers miss a great opportunity to steal the victory away.

After another day of rest, the Celtics ushered in the second game of the series against the Heat at home.

It can be seen that Donovan learned the lesson of seeking a single-point advantage in the first game. He played Wang Zha at the beginning, let Stephen Jackson play the fourth position, and White Chocolate, Liu Yuqing and Ray Allen partnered outside.

This is not the small ball era in the previous life where serious small forwards were used to serve as unscrupulous power forwards all day long. Let Wu Sheng serve as a power forward part-time, and the Heat's fourth position will inevitably be blown up.

It's also a testament to Donovan's deep understanding of why Game 1 failed.

The era of fighting defense is over, now it's time to fight offense.

White Chocolate alone lacks an offensive threat and cannot connect with the whole team, so let Duncan go to a high position to support and share half of the organizational pressure.

This adjustment is not unpleasant. Donovan has been on the front line for many years and has led the Heat to win four championships. He has already begun to look like a famous coach.

Since he wanted to open up his posture and fight to attack Louis, he naturally didn't hide it.

After the Heat made a 6-2 start in the opening minute, Louis directly called a timeout, then replaced Gasol with Yao Yueban, and put on an extreme five-out lineup to confront the Heat.

Lu Wuxia returned to the state of the semi-finals, with the ball in his hands, driving and attacking continuously.

In the first quarter, the two sides scored 34 to 31, with the Celtics leading by 3 points.

In the second quarter ~www.readwn.com~ The Celtics, who have a clear advantage inside, extended their lead to 12 points by relying on rebounds.

In the third quarter, Liu Yuqing and Ray Allen's three-point rain brought the difference between the two sides back to 4 points.

Then enter the crazy fourth quarter, Lu Wuxia, Ray Allen, Ginobili, Liu Yuqing, Yao Yueban, Duncan, I will come on stage after you sing, the climax lasts from the first second of the fourth quarter to the last Second.

With Lu Wuxia 40 seconds before the end of the game, when the Celtics led by 3 points, just after halftime, he dribbled a small step and directly collected the ball-at that moment, Wuxia's figure was in Luigi's mind. Stephen Curry, who captured Kevin Durant in WWI, coincides.

At the moment when Lu Wuxia made that ultra-long three-pointer that made the audience crazy, Liu Yuqing, who is extremely sensitive to arcs, quickly cursed: "Fuck!"

"Shuh!!"

"OMG!!" Heinsohn screamed, "Wish is the basketball **** tonight!"
