Miami American Airlines Arena

This is a big show that fans have been waiting for for a long time.

Although an hour before the start of the game, Gilbert Arenas is still in a state of doubt, but Heat fans basically believe that the team will let Arenas come back tonight.

And so it is.

Although the Heat are very good at acting and have put smoke bombs for a few days, Arenas' comeback after the suspension period is over is regarded by the public as inevitable.

If the Heat's opponent is not a strong team like the Celtics, maybe they will give Arenas some time to adapt to the game, but now, time waits for no one.

Wait any longer, maybe they have to wait until next season.

Because the process was too ridiculous, when Louis saw Billy Donovan at the American Airlines Center, he even joked with him: "Do you know that your blindfolded method is more unbelievable than Keith Richards' rumor ⑴ ?”

"It's not that exaggerated, is it?" Donovan rolled his eyes.

"I'm serious, no one believes you're going to keep Arenas off the court."

At this point, Donovan had nothing to hide.

Arenas is coming back, so what?

He's going to come back sooner or later anyway, isn't he?

"Coach Lu, aren't you worried at all?" Donovan asked. "GA's return will bring us to our best."

As the most successful coach in the Luigi family, Donovan is now a famous coach in the world. Louis often paid attention to the Heat when he was hidden behind the scenes. He believes that Donovan is very mature in all aspects and deserves the title of famous coach. .

However, the decision to let Arenas come back tonight was wrong.

"Billy," Louie said, repeating what he had said countless times, "it's not going to end well."

Donovan asked puzzled: "I don't think so, Coach Lu, GA has been with us for a long time, he can definitely plug and play, even if he misses 40 games, he can find the feeling immediately."

Of course Louis will not doubt the chemistry between Arenas and the team.

The tacit understanding and team effect accumulated over six years will never disappear because of the absence of three months.

However, Wilson and Ewing have worked hand in hand for 7 years, but they almost split.

Kobe and Garnett have gone through 9 seasons together, and they also didn't start well.

Sometimes knowing each other is not enough to determine whether a relationship will make it to the end.

"Maybe, you might be right." Louis didn't say much, "Let the game see the truth."

After the coaches of both sides greeted each other, they retreated to their respective venues.

Then, the players warmed up for more than ten minutes of shooting. The scene indicated that the game was about to start, the lights were dimmed, and the home DJ loudly introduced the starting players.

The starting lineup for the Celtics tonight is: Lu Wuxia, Manu Ginobili, Andrei Kirilenko, Pau Gasol, Yao Yueban.

The starting lineup for the Heat tonight is: Gilbert Arenas, Ray Allen, Stephen Jackson, Tim Duncan, Wang Zhizhi.

Wang Zhizhi took off on time based on his prediction and won the opening ball for the Heat.

Arenas took the ball. Although there were obvious cheers at the scene, there were also boos.

Moreover, the maliciousness of these boos is clear. They just hate the fact that Arenas has a gun.

Louie thought it might have something to do with the Virginia Tech shooting last month. Since shootings happen almost every day in the United States, Louis doesn't usually pay attention to this. At most, he checks whether the place he is going is safe or not before going out. But it’s hard not to pay attention to this shooting case. The murderer was a Korean. He killed 32 people with one gun on campus and then committed suicide. The voice of mental health is everywhere, Arenas this wave is purely collateral damage.

As a result, Arenas didn't know whether he was affected by the boos at home or determined to prove and express himself, so he ignored Duncan's important position when he came up.

This is definitely not a positive sign.

Almost every strong team will play a good first down.

The first attack is done, and maybe everything will be smooth in the future.

Most of the Heat's first attack in the game would be Duncan's low-post singles, but today, although Duncan was about to get in position, Arenas didn't seem to see anyone.

Old Dengtou had no choice, and if it took any longer, it would be a three-second violation, so he could only come out to block people.

As a result, Arenas used Duncan's pick-and-roll to plunge into the Celtics' zone defense. In a panic, he wanted to pass the ball to Duncan behind him. The ball was touched by Kirilenko before it was passed out, causing the ball to fly. The course has clearly changed.

The ball that should have fallen into Duncan's hands was snatched by Lu Wuxia.

At the moment of catching the ball, Lu Wuxia was unlucky. He directly surprised everyone with his Haidilao style low hand high 0 throw and long pass. Ginobili, who was precisely guided and fast down, flew to the layup and scored beautifully. Celtic's first goal of the night.

"Wow! Look at that! Wish was amazing on the court! He just passed the ball out in such a precise way, Manu Ginobili lived up to that opportunity and put the ball in with ease. The basket! This is really an amazing moment! Wish is performing very well on the court now, he does not seem to have any hesitation, and he directly adopts his signature technique, allowing the Celtics to open the scoring. It is an unbelievable I believe the scene, I think the fans will be excited and proud of his performance!"

Louis didn't know when this flamboyant low-handed high-throw long pass became his son's signature technique, but he was really excited to see it.

So pleasing to the eye!

"I saw this in Pete Maravich's top 10 career shots." Steve Kerr asked. "Wish saw Pete's game?"

"Impossible, he was not born then."

"Could it be that this is a flash of genius?"

Returning to the Heat's offense, the Celtics' defensive strategy has been reflected from the beginning of the game.

As long as Arenas gets the ball, the whole team will focus on zone defense, which is to prevent the opponent from breaking through.

Once Arenas passes the ball, except for Yao Yueban who is determined to stay at the basket to protect the basket, the others will either go to the high position to switch defenses, or chase people outside the three-point line.

This is the strategy of the Celtics, blocking the basket and oppressing the shooter.

But oppressing the shooter requires the support of a defensive champion.

The Celtics don't have as many defensive stalwarts, so it doesn't work well.

Arenas passed the ball, the Heat passed the ball several times, and soon created an opportunity in Wang Zhizhi's hands.

Wang Zhizhi, who used to be playmates with Lu Wuxia at Lu Yi's house, is now a veteran of the NBA for ten years.

Xiao Wang becomes old Wang, but the accurate and deadly projection remains the same.

The Heat's first three-pointer in the opening game was made by Pharaoh.

3 to 2

"Brother Wang, it's quite accurate." Lu Wuxia smiled.

Wang Zhizhi didn't answer, just smiled and waved to Wuxia, which meant, don't push, talk with the ball.

After all, he had played with Wuxia since he was a child, and he knew best how good this kid's mouth is.

"snort"

Lu Wuxia snorted and gave up the work of dribbling the ball past halftime, and let Ginobili do it for him.

After running halfway, Lu Wuxia realized that it was Arenas who confronted him, so he said, "Does it feel good to be back in the game?"

"Great, I can't wait to blow you up!" Arenas said arrogantly.

Then, Gasol set up a high screen, Ginobili used the pick-and-roll to break through first, Lu Wuxia then received Gasol's screen and threw off Arenas' defense to get an open space on the outside. Watch people send back.

Lu Wuxia caught the ball. Although there was still one meter away from the three-point line, he made a decisive shot and hit a three-pointer.

Then, he looked at Arenas provocatively, "Hey, is this how you beat people up?"

Eager to respond, Arenas didn't find the right rhythm and made a three-pointer after dribbling continuously at the top of the arc.

Once this kind of ball is interfered by the defense, the hit rate is very low.

Because Arenas is not the kind of player with strong explosive power, his physical fitness cannot ensure that he can ignore the defender's blocks when he pulls up.

"boom!"

Missed, and the rebound fell out of bounds.

"Either you misunderstood the phrase about blowing someone up~www.readwn.com~ or you just like to talk nonsense." Lu Wuxia laughed, "Gilbert, why don't you change your name to Gabrielsh ( Gibberish)⑵, it’s true to its name.”

Louis was on the sidelines, watching Wuxia drive his opponent to blood rage within a few rounds.

What is this kid doing? That's a guy with a gun when he goes away with the team.

Let's provoke someone else, Daddy is really scared.

⑴ Keith Richards is the guitarist of the Rolling Stones, just like most of the band members who were active in the 1970s and 1980s. Since he is a drug-addicted dog, some tabloids spread rumors in the 1980s He said that when he took drugs one time, he mixed his father's ashes with the medicine and knocked them together. Louie uses this as an analogy because Richards' public rebuttal in April 2007 was big news at the time.

⑵ Interpretation: Gibberish/inexplicable words; nonsense; puzzling words
