Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

Chapter 200 Fierce battle in the finals!The reborn Dayao!Save your career!

Two days later, the Eastern Conference finals were decided. The Heat eliminated the Bulls 4-2 and advanced to the Finals.

The two teams played very stalemate in the whole round of the series. In 5 of the 2 games, the point difference was in single digits. In the G23 game, the Big Three of the Heat collectively took a nap. In the end, it was difficult to end with the performance of the role player Arroyo who scored [-] points. next victory.

In the life-and-death battle, the Heat only won the Bulls by three-pointers. Derrick Rose made 29 of 9 shots and hit 31%.

The Big Three made it to the finals in the first season together, which proved the strength of the Heat. Although there are still many flaws in the lineup, the Big Three can solve many problems with their personal abilities.

However, Seattle fans are very confident that the Supersonics will win the championship. After all, the Supersonics played the Heat in this year's Christmas game. Even if the Heat have three top stars, they can't take much advantage.

Lu Yong re-analyzed the Heat's lineup before the game. When a team has James and Wade at the same time, the team's counterattack must be very good, and at the same time, [-]% of the three-pointers are poor.

In Lu Yong’s previous life, when the Spurs fought the Big Three in the finals against the Heat, he had already given the correct answer. Even if Bosh occasionally broke out, there is nothing to be afraid of. Uncomfortable, far less dominant than the regular season.

The Sonics have a stronger outside offense, can play fast breaks and score in positional battles, and the depth of the second team is an excellent advantage for the Sonics. The Heat should be passive in this round of the series.

After the division finals, the two teams got four days to rest, and the first game of the finals will be played at the Seattle Arena.

The Supersonics closed the arena for extra practice before the game, and the same is true for the Heat. The two sides have entered the final game, and no one wants to lose in the finals.

In the Western Conference Finals, Lu Yong used Beverly as the starter to pester Kobe. In the finals, he still planned to arrange this way and let "Mad Dog" Beverly take care of Wade.

One-on-one Mike Miller and Matthews can't defend Wade. The former is a colander, while the latter suffers from speed. Only Beverly is suitable for this task. Let him defend Wade as the main defense.

The personal entanglement and constant trash talk interference will make even the best-tempered star feel bored. The combination of Beverly + Stephenson is a perfect match, and 48 minutes of uninterrupted provocation will definitely make a difference.

Lu Yong's tactics for Beverly are very simple. He only needs to do two things in the starting game, pester Wade, catch and shoot, and don't even need him to dribble past half court.

Janeway is the real core of this Heat team, and Beverly's single defense against the peak James is almost meaningless. After all, the height and weight of the two are too disparate, so it is more appropriate for him to pester Wade.

As for James' positional battles, there is nothing to be afraid of. With Yao sitting at the basket, he will not be efficient even if he rushes in. Coupled with the outside line, the challenge James faces in the finals is even more severe than Kobe.

After running in the Western Conference Finals, Beverly's starting game has perfectly integrated into the team. Both offensive and defensive ends know where he should appear. After the contract expires this summer, he will definitely get a big contract.

As for the bench competition, the Sonics beat the Heat even more.

As long as the Big Three do not have a double-digit advantage, the Sonics will be invincible.

On June 6, the annual NBA Finals officially kicked off.

Compared with the 08-09 season, the core players of the Sonics have improved a lot in terms of strength and experience, and they are no longer a group of rookies.

After the players came out, Durant and Yao Ming practiced their shots quietly, and even if they didn't light their guns before the battle, they didn't want to waste even such a small amount of time.

James also lost the depth and confidence of the past. He frowned and practiced three-point shooting, and the pressure on his shoulders was even greater than the fans imagined.

CCTV5 broadcast the game live, Director Zhang analyzed: "This is the first trip to the Finals after the Big Three teamed up. James desperately needs a championship ring to prove himself. The decision to leave the Cavaliers has caused massive outcry from Cleveland fans. Dissatisfied, if he doesn't succeed in Miami, it will be chicken and egg."

Yu Jia said: "The Supersonics also need this championship very much, because this year will be the last window for the Supersonics to win the championship. After this season, the rookie contracts of Durant and Noah are facing expiration. For the Supersonics, the next contract will definitely have a maximum salary, without the advantage of child labor contracts, the Supersonics’ reinforcements will inevitably be limited.”

"In addition, Mike Miller, Beverly, Budinger, Matthews, Gerald Green, Yao Ming, Jermaine O'Neal and others will also become free agents in the summer, and most of them may be poached by other teams with high salaries. Go, it will be difficult for the Sonics to win the championship in the future."

Director Zhang nodded and said, "That's right, this year's finals are very important to both the Heat and the Supersonics. They all have reasons to win the championship. It depends on hard power who can have the last laugh."

At seven o'clock in the evening, the two teams announced the starting list.

Supersonic Five: Jackson, Beverly, Durant, David Lee, Yao Ming.

Dayao started the playoffs more frequently than Noah. It's not that Lu Yong is biased. It's because the opponents along the way of the Supersonics need a heavy center to sit at the basket. Especially against the Heat, Yao Ming's style of play naturally restrains his opponents.

Beverly is to deal with Wade. Mike Miller's offense is better, but he will definitely be overwhelmed by defending Wade alone.

Heat Five: Arroyo, Wade, James, Bosh, Ilgauskas.

The Heat are very lucky this year. The Big Three have hardly experienced injuries in the first year of joining forces. Like the Supersonics, all members are healthy.

Spoelstra did not make adjustments to the starting lineup. After a season of running-in, the temporary adjustment of the finals is not as good as it is.

Ilgauskas won with a jump ball and the Heat went first.

Arroyo dribbled the ball across half court and passed it to Wade, and the others spread around according to the tactics, leaving the center to Wade and James.

Although Bosh is also a star, he is the third offensive point in the Heat's tactical system. It is mainly for the pick and roll of James and Wei, and the mid-range catch and jump shot on both sides. Sacrifice the greatest one.

Wade faced Beverly with the ball in the middle, and no one stepped forward to help defend, which seemed to be a good one-on-one opportunity.

The two of James and Wei privately called each other brothers, but in the first year of joining forces, they were unable to determine who was the boss of the team. They also had selfish intentions in the finals and did not want to give up the FMVP competition.

Facing Beverly Wade, he didn't call for a pick-and-roll. He feinted for a while, and suddenly accelerated to break through on the right. Although a meniscus was missing, Wade's first step was still very fast and explosive.

However, although Beverly couldn't keep up with Wade's speed, his defensive enthusiasm was top-notch in the league. He barely followed him with his slapstick closeness, and his small movements from time to time pulled people to ensure that he would not be shaken down.

The two teams played against each other twice in the regular season, but Beverly came off the bench for two consecutive games. This is the first time Wade has faced Beverly at the beginning of the game, and he inevitably feels a little underestimated.

After rushing to the right, Wade suddenly accelerated his speed and went deep for the second time. He sprinted to the three-second zone and sent out his signature lost step.

As a result, Beverly gritted his teeth and did not lose his defensive position. The extreme defense interfered with Wade's shot. The ball hit the blue neck and collapsed into the basket. The rebound was protected by Yao Ming.

Wade felt a chill in his heart. He didn't expect Beverly's defense to be so difficult. By the time he reacted, Yao Ming had thrown a standard quarter-point long pass to the frontcourt, assisting "Martial Saint" Jackson with a single pass. Hand dunk, bang! 2 to 0.

Yu Jia exclaimed: "Beautiful! Beverly defended the ball really well. Although he was at a disadvantage in speed, he still gritted his teeth and defended. Dayao's pass was also very accurate, assisting Jackson to easily counterattack. This is what the Supersonics like. The rhythm, the Heat were obviously a little careless in the first round."

Director Zhang said with a smile: "It seems that Wade still doesn't like Beverly in his heart. Even Kobe was entangled and cursed. He might suffer a big loss if he doesn't take it seriously."

In the next round, James reached out for the ball after halftime, played Durant one-on-one at the top of the arc, and used Bosh's pick-and-roll to make a strong kill at the basket.

Durant didn't hesitate, and saw James take off and immediately rushed up. The advantage of wingspan played a role at this time, and successfully interfered with James' jumper.

Turnaround jump shots are not James’ strong point, but he played against the Sonics twice in the regular season. With Yao Ming guarding the basket, Lao Zhan knew very well that he couldn’t get in, so he could only shoot jump shots as close to the basket as possible. .

Director Zhang shouted: "Another one was defended. The Supersonics did a good job defending after the opening game and played an atypical game!"

In the positional battle, Durant turned around and also singled James, changed his front and cut in from the left, attracted Bosh to double-team and then passed the ball to David Lee. Steady in, swish! 4 to 0.

James' face was a bit ugly, and he pointed to Bosh to signal him to be optimistic about his own people.

Bosh wanted to justify a few words, but after thinking about it for a while, he still ran to the frontcourt. It has long been a habit to take the blame.

Lu Yong sat on the sidelines with a smile on his face, familiar with the Heat and the familiar formula, all of which made him feel that the Supersonics had the chance to win.

If it was the Heat with Ray Allen, it would be difficult for the Sonics to meet in the finals, but the Heat in the first year of the Big Three teamed up were full of flaws, and the Sonics' lineup this year is not afraid at all.

The Heat attacked, and Arroyo dribbled the ball to Bosh after half court. James and Wei both attacked once at the beginning of the game but returned without success. It was Bosh's turn to try his hand.

Bosh held the ball with the horns on the left side of the frame, and even O'Neill's grandma couldn't shake it with feints. David Lee, who had an explosive golf quotient, was naturally unmoved.

David Lee defended the ball very well. No matter how Bosh turned around, he stuck tightly in front of him, and Bosh didn't let Bosh pass easily.After turning to the middle, Bosh opened a distance, and made a jumper from the free throw line, but was interfered by David Lee's hand, and the ball went wide.

Durant sprinted back to the basket for a backcourt rebound, looked up, and dribbled the ball across half court himself.

In the positional battle, Yao Ming received the ball from a high position and pulled the 2-meter-tall center Ilgauskas out of the penalty area, waiting for Jackson to run with a screen and pass the ball.

The weakest point of the Heat's starting five is "Wonder Boy" Arroyo, who is 1 meters tall and weighs 88 kilograms. His static talent is at a serious disadvantage against "Martial Saint" Jackson.

Jackson received the ball from the weak side and leaned back, turned to the baseline to make room, turned over and made a jumper from close range, 6-0.

Arroyo, who has played in European leagues all the year round, actually defended well when he was young. He even led his team to defeat the "Dream Six" in the Athens Olympics. However, at the age of 32, his athletic ability has declined seriously.

In Lu Yong's previous life, Arroyo was traded by the Heat in the middle of the season, but not only was he not traded to the Celtics this season, but he also kept his starting point guard position, which was lucky.

The Heat attacked, and Wade passed James after halftime.

This time James broke through the middle to kill the basket, took off against Yao's defense, and passed the ball to Bosh who was ambushing near the free throw line.

Bosh had a good chance with the ball, and he seized the opportunity in the open mid-range shot and went into the net hollowly. 6 to 2.

James' passing vision is still very wide. Although he can't break through, he can break through and assist his teammates. This is also the main scoring method for the Heat in positional battles.

Lu Yong is not worried sitting on the sidelines. The Heat's Big Three account for 80% of the team's salary. Almost all other players are signed with a basic salary and their abilities are limited.

As long as the Sonics limit the scoring of James and Way, even if Bosh teamed up with the role players to explode, it will be difficult to win the game. A 30-point score will definitely be an empty score, so there is no need to worry about it.

For the Supersonics offense, Dayao still stood at a high position to support, but this time he sent the ball to David Lee, who was at the basket.

When Ilgauskas was pulled out of the penalty area by Yao Ming, the Heat's ability to protect the frame at the basket dropped sharply. David Lee sat in the low post to catch the ball and singled Bosh, leaned his back and turned around in the middle. Enjoy silky smoothness.

When James defended to the basket, David Lee had already turned his body, wiped the board with his right hand and scored, 8-2.

This was a serious singles. David Lee's delicate technical movements attracted loud cheers from the fans.

David Lee was also very excited and blew a kiss to the audience when he returned to defense.

Bosh felt that he was very embarrassed. He took the initiative to ask for the ball just after halftime in the next round. After breaking through the face frame, he turned around and opened the distance. He also hit a jumper, 8 to 4.

Both of them are All-Star insiders, and it is normal for the offensive end to explode each other. Lu Yong is also happy to see the Big Three play like this, because if they play at this pace, the Heat will be more or less fortunate.

The Supersonics attacked, Jackson took the ball to the frontcourt, and David Lee gave Durant an off-ball screen in the middle, blocking James.

Durant suddenly accelerated to run to the bottom corner, and Jackson immediately passed the ball over.

Durant caught the ball and dived to the basket, dribbled a long two-point jumper, James slowed down around the screen, and could only extend his hand symbolically.

This kind of ball is Durant's favorite rhythm. With a sudden step, the ball is hollowed into the net, swish! 10 to 4.

The Heat attacked, and Wade missed Beverly and swayed the space. He was defended by Jackson on the outside of the three-second zone. He turned around and passed the ball to Arroyo.

Arroyo swayed outside the three-point line, knocked off Jackson's defensive center of gravity, took two steps inside to avoid the block, and hit the board with a high throw. 10 to 6.

The Supersonics attacked, and Durant dribbled the ball to the frontcourt by himself, gesturing to his teammates to move.

James lowered his body and looked back to avoid being blocked by the inside line behind him when he retreated. He has rich defensive experience.

As a result, Durant did not play according to the routine this round. Seeing that James lowered his center of gravity, he decisively pulled out a three-pointer.

The arc of the ball is very straight, and after gliding for a certain distance in the air, it hits the net!
Swish! 13 to 6.

"Beautiful! Durant hit a three-pointer on the head of James. The shot was too decisive, and he was calm like a killer!" Director Zhang shouted.

Spoelstra couldn't sit still, got up and asked the technical desk for a timeout.

The Heat not only couldn't defend against the Sonics' offense, but also had difficulty scoring themselves like constipation. This game was really exhausting.

After the timeout, the two teams played back and forth in the next few rounds.

With Chris Bosh's excellent play, the Heat recovered some points, but the Sonics still took the initiative.

Four minutes later, Lu Yong replaced Mike Miller to strengthen the offense and let Beverly, who had been fouled twice, go off the court to rest.

Miller hit a three-pointer in the second half, and faked Wade's foul to win two free throws. He scored 5 points in the half quarter and played steadily.

姚明打了8分多钟的时间被替换下场，3投2中，得到4分5篮板2盖帽，将西雅图上空打造成了禁飞区。

33 to 26, the Sonics lead the Heat by 7 points to end the first quarter.

Director Zhang said: "Yao Ming's defensive effect tonight is difficult to measure with statistics. When he was on the court, the Heat scored very few points at the basket. James and Wade could only be forced to shoot far from the basket. This kind of deterrence has greatly reduced the offensive efficiency of the Heat, and signing Dayao during the offseason is definitely the most successful signing of the Sonics management."

Yu Jia said with a smile: "Dayao only signed a one-year contract with the Supersonics during the offseason. This year he not only won the award of the best sixth man, but also shined in the playoffs. He will test the waters of the free market in the summer. Dayao must be very popular, he personally saved his career."
