Chapter 526 Verification
"ball."

Antetokounmpo wants the ball and singles Haslem.

It was a back-to-back singles again. After carrying two backs, Antetokounmpo pushed Haslem into the penalty area. Although Haslem tried hard to fight, he still couldn't stand it: "This guy's talent Terrible, another guy like Meng. But it's not that easy to score on me."

boom!
Antetokounmpo slammed back again, then quickly turned and jumped.

"Get down for me." Haslem growled and pulled Antetokounmpo down.

The referee whistled and gave Haslem a foul.

Antetokounmpo looked ugly and glared at Haslem angrily. He was not injured. Such a close-range pull is not so easy to get injured. He was just very unwilling. He could score, but he was so destroyed. .

"Heh." Haslem grinned, didn't care at all, and curled his lips on purpose, as if to say: "I just don't let you score, and I will pull you down for fouls. If you don't like it, hit me, you come?"

Haslem's expression made Antetokounmpo even more upset, his expression was ferocious, and he was about to lose control. Middleton rushed forward and hugged Antetokounmpo.

Although no conflict broke out, it was obvious that Antetokounmpo was still very upset and his mood was not very stable. When he walked to the free throw line, he missed both free throws and didn't score a single one.

Whiteside received the rebound and the Heat attacked.

Meng Yun came to the front court, took a look at the situation on the court, dribbled the ball with one hand, danced with the other hand, directed his teammates to move, and asked for a pick-and-roll at the same time, Whiteside quickly brought it up.

Middleton frowned, and quickly retreated, intending to bypass Whiteside.

But at this moment, Meng Yun stopped and took advantage of Middleton's time being blocked by Whiteside to make a three-pointer. The basketball drew an arc and pierced through the net with a swish.

For a while, the score became 52:62, and the point difference caught up to ten.

The Bucks coach's face changed slightly, he stood up, walked to the sidelines and shouted at the field: "Be careful, play steadily, don't worry."

Here, Spoelstra's eyes glowed, and he whispered to himself: "Meng Yun can only show his full strength in the 1st position. He can break through, tear apart the opponent's defense, create opportunities for teammates, and control Rhythm, let the game play according to the rhythm we need, and once the opponent is afraid of his breakthrough and passing, he can score by himself. Compared with Dragic, Meng Yun's advantage is that he is more aggressive and impactful force."

"This method is indeed feasible. Let Meng Yun play the No. 1 position, which can drive everyone."

Although he played for a while, Spoelstra's inner belief has become more and more firm. The idea in his heart is to let Meng Yun play the No. 1 position. When Meng Yun was on the bench, he drove the entire bench alone. Allowing players with average abilities to play and contribute can be said to have greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the bench lineup.

Now that the team lacks Bosh, there are problems in both tactics and lineup, so Spoelstra wants to just break the boat and let Meng Yun play the 1st position to see if he can bring the same substitute lineup as before. .

Now it seems that it is feasible.

"Shh!"

On the field, Jabari Parker made a mid-range hit.

The Heat counterattacked, Meng Yun suddenly scored and gave it to Wade, and passed the ball twice. The ball returned to Meng Yun. He moved the defender to the right, and then suddenly distributed the ball to the left. Roll Deng.

boom!
Unfortunately, Luol Deng's shot hit the iron
In a blink of an eye, a few minutes passed.

The Heat played well in the past few minutes. Meng Yun performed very well at the No. 1 position. He organized the offense in an orderly manner, and his personal score did not fall. He can always make a reasonable choice of passing or shooting. He is not mature like a rookie.

"beep"

The Bucks requested a timeout.

At this time the score was 63:70, and the Heat were only 7 points behind.

From 15 points behind to 7 points behind, that is, in a few minutes, everyone can see that Meng Yun has contributed a lot to the Heat's ability to narrow the point difference.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Meng's organizational skills to be so strong. Isn't he number 3?"

A fan sighed.

Hearing this, some fans immediately sneered and said, "Who told you that Meng is in position 3? He has always been a defender, well, he used to play in position 1."

"That is, when Meng was a substitute, he always played the No. 1 position. At that time, his organizational skills were already very good. Especially his overall view and vision, as well as passing the ball, he can always be there when his teammates need him. Passing the ball, always being able to see the chances that are fleeting on the court, and always making a great pass."

"Yes, Meng's pass is too imaginative."

Although Meng Yun has stopped playing the No. 1 position since he was put on the starting lineup, don't forget that he still averages 5 assists per game, and Meng Yun's passing is full of spirituality, which is always amazing and impresses fans.

The players from both sides returned to the field, and the teammates high-fived Meng Yun one after another.

Dragic also got up and high-fived Meng Yun, but the smile on his face was a bit forced.

In the past few minutes, Dragic has had a bit of aftertaste. At this time, the coach asked Meng Yun to play the No. 1 position. Is it really just a whim?
No.

Anyway, Dragic doesn't see it that way.

Especially when Meng Yun played like a fish in water at the 1st position, Dragic felt that the coach's arrangement had a deep meaning, and he felt a threat.

"Good job." Spoelstra praised, and began to substitute: "Meng Yun, you go off, Dragic on. Haslem also off, Anderson on"

Soon, the timeout ends and the game continues.

The players walked onto the court, and Rostern came to Spoelstra's side and said, "Judging from just a few minutes ago, Meng Yun is indeed more suitable to play the No. 1 position. He has improved rapidly in the past few months. Whether it is personal ability, overall situation, or experience, it is no less than Dragic."

"Well." Spoelstra nodded, looked at the field, and said: "That's why I arranged it this way. Meng Yun and Dragic are both very good players. Both of them are No. 1. It’s a problem in itself. Originally, Bosh was here, we played X tactics, and we didn’t need to rely too much on a certain position, and the two could find a balance.”

"But not now."

"Without Bosh, Wade alone can't do it. To win, someone must stand up. And this person must be one of Meng Yun and Dragic."

"So I asked Meng Yun to return to the No. 1 position, so that he can show his talents to the fullest." Spoelstra said with deep eyes, shining light, "I will give them a period of time and let them compete well. After a comparison, who is better and will help the team more, you will know after verification."
