king of defenders

Chapter 598

When the players got down, Spoelstra didn't have any nonsense, and cut directly to the topic: "The opponent changed their defensive strategy and wanted to double-team Wade."

First, after some analysis, the generals nodded after listening.

They can also see this, but they are not as specific as the coach.

At this time, Meng Yun, Wade, and other players are all looking at Spoelstra. The opponent's strategy is understood, but what should we do now?
"The opponent's strategy is not subtle, but it is very effective." Spoelstra looked serious, "There are two ways to deal with the opponent's strategy."

"First, Wade breaks the opponent's double-team and turns the opponent's double-team into a bubble. Double-teaming is not a panacea, nor can it necessarily prevent people from dying."

"Second, if other people can stand up and Wade is double-teamed, others will definitely have a chance. Make good use of this opportunity and score the ball, so that the opponent's double-teaming becomes a defensive loophole. When double-teaming Wade When the advantage is greater than the profit, their double-teaming will be self-defeating."

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

This principle is not difficult to understand, but no matter what kind of method, it seems that it is not easy.

Double-teaming is indeed not a panacea. For example, Meng Yun is not very afraid of double-teaming. His speed is fast and his breakthrough is sharp. It is very difficult for the opponent to rely on double-teaming to prevent him from death.Moreover, Meng Yun also has excellent passing, a good overall view, and excellent passing vision. Double-teaming him may become a mistake instead.

But Wade is no longer young after all. He can still play outstanding statistics on the court, but he relies on experience and technology. For double-teaming, he doesn't have much to do.

As for the others, their status is indeed worrying. It is not difficult for them to perform well in good times, but it is too difficult to perform at a super level in adversity.

Spoelstra is also aware of this, he paused, and then said: "We need two ways to go hand in hand, Wade wants to break the opponent's double-team as much as possible, fouling is also a good choice. Be proactive, when Wade takes the ball, you have to be firm, you have to score the ball, you have to be aggressive and threatening."

"Yes."

"Ah."

"clear."

Everyone promises.

Meng Yun looked at Wade, then at his teammates, his heart was always heavy.

At this time, the timeout ended and the two sides played again. Spoelstra looked at Meng Ye's back and said to himself: "The time is really too short. Meng Yun's progress is fast enough, but give him time Too short. He's 20 and a rookie, if he's fully grown."

Shaking his head, Spoelstra stopped. He actually had a third way to break the game, but the key to that way was Meng Yun, but it was almost impossible to succeed.

When the two sides came back, the Heat began to play according to Spoelstra's arrangement, but the effect was not good. Wade tried to break through the opponent's double-team forcibly, and also tried to draw fouls, and even successfully caused the opponent's foul.But they still underestimated the determination of the Pacers. Even if they were in danger of fouling, they double-teamed Wade as always, without mercy.

In this way, it is impossible for Wade to rely on his personal ability to break the game.

On the other end, Luol Deng, Green, and Whiteside remembered Spoelstra's instructions and had the opportunity to fight resolutely, but their state was really worrying and they could not break the game from the side.

And the Pacers not only took the initiative on the defensive end, but also took the advantage on the offensive end. George's state is still hot. In addition, Ellis changed his impatience in the previous game, played maturely and steadily, and also played well.

After a few minutes, the Heat fell into a very disadvantageous situation. The score became 25:14, and the Pacers led by as much as 11 points.

"Substitution." Spoelstra replaced the main force and put on the bench.

Entering the rotation time, the Heat played pretty well. Dragic still performed well, and even led the Heat's bench lineup to suppress the opponent and narrow the point difference.

When the first quarter ended, the score was 31:23, and the Pacers led by 8 points.

"Dragic played well, and the last game was also good."

"But it's useless. To decide the outcome, it depends on the main force. If the main force plays poorly, what's the use of the substitute team playing well?"

The fans are talking.

Bill Duffy felt very depressed, and his brows were tightly frowned. In the last game, he didn't firmly stand on the Heat's side, but the Heat won.

In this game, he was firmly on the side of the Heat, but he always felt that it was not safe to look at the situation. Dragic led the bench team to score 3 points more than the opponent in the rotation time, but the main lineup lost 11 points. For such a team In terms of point difference, 3 points is really insignificant, but it is nothing but a drop in the bucket.

"Could it be that I was wrong again this time?" Bill Duffy was speechless.

In a blink of an eye, the first half was over.

At this time the score became 61:46, with the Pacers leading by 15 points.

The situation was similar to that in the first quarter. The Pacers aimed at Wade and restricted Wade at all costs. The Heat also wanted to stand up, Luol Deng, Green and others, but their condition was still bad.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Meng Yun stepped forward and scored consecutive points, but failed to change the situation. Meng Yun can score, but one person's power is limited after all.

"Sure enough." Spoelstra shook his head. He was mentally prepared for this result, and he didn't blame anyone. He just said, "Dragic, wait until the third quarter and play No. 1. Meng Yun , you play number 3."

This is the only way Spoelstra can think of now. Since Green, Luol Deng, and Whiteside can't stand up and take on the heavy responsibility of scoring, let Dragic come.

At least Dragic has this ability.

It's just that there are great hidden dangers in doing so, but Spoelstra can't control that much anymore. The point difference has expanded to 15 points, and it cannot continue to expand, otherwise it will be impossible to come back.

When the third quarter began, the Heat changed their lineup, Dragic came back, and Meng Yun retreated to the 3rd position. Anyway, Meng Yun now needs to take on more scoring tasks. Playing the 3rd position can concentrate on scoring. .

In this way, the effect is not bad, the opponent is still desperately restricting Wade, but Meng Yun and Dragic's consecutive scoring caught the Pacers by surprise, making them a little flustered.

At this time, the Pacers coach called a timeout and told the players.

When the timeout came back, the Pacers did not change their strategy, and they still did everything they could to prevent Wade from dying. Even if Meng Yun and Dragic chased the point difference down to less than ten points, the Pacers didn't care. .

Seeing that the point difference has narrowed to less than ten points, and there is still a trend to continue to shrink, the home fans are relieved.

However, instead of relaxing, Spoelstra's face became more and more ugly. He shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect Frank Vogel to have such courage."
