Chapter 739: Good Results
After entering the regular season, it is impossible to not care about winning or losing like the preseason. However, the nba regular season is very long, with a total of 82 games. Generally speaking, the first third of the regular season will not be very tense. Even if there is a gap in the record, it is not a big problem, and it can be changed later.

At this time, the game will also strive to win, but it has not reached the point where it must be contested, and the intensity of the game will not be too great. For a team like the Heat with a relatively large lineup change, it is a good opportunity for training.

After two consecutive victories, on October 10, when the Heat played against the Spurs, Spoelstra continued to train. As a result, the Heat lost to the Spurs.

However, Spoelstra doesn't care about the gains and losses of one city and one pool. If you lose, you lose. The Spurs are not a weak team.

After that, they played against the Kings at home and played away against the Raptors and Thunder. The Heat won two games in three games, defeated the Kings and Thunder, and lost to the Raptors.

This season, Kevin Durant transferred from the Thunder to the Warriors. After the Thunder's three minors became double minors, they have now simply become one minor, leaving Westbrook.

Although the Thunder found Oladipo, who played very well in the Magic, Oladipo must not be able to match Durant, and he has recently integrated into the team. The Thunder's state is not very good.

So even if Westbrook scored 33 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 assists in a quasi-triple-double, the Heat still successfully defeated the Thunder.

It is not the first time Meng Yun and Westbrook have played against each other, but Meng Yun can't help but shake his head every time he plays against Westbrook. Needless to say, Westbrook's ability is definitely at the level of a superstar, but his style of play is really good. It's very problematic. From Meng Yun's point of view, it is not reasonable to play many times, but it seems that Westbrook doesn't care at all.

After a few games, the Heat are training, and there are indeed some effects. Monroe and Lu Wei have performed well, and Nene has not played much time. Sullinger is young, and Spoelstra still plans to train. Since the first game broke out under the encouragement of Meng Yun, Salinger has also played better and better. Although he is not as good as Lu Wei, or even Taylor Johnson and Gerald Green, as a backup power forward It is still possible.

On November 11, the Heat played against the Bulls at home.

The Bulls' lineup has also changed a lot this year. The former "Son of the Wind" Derrick Rose was traded to the Knicks, and the Bulls became Jimmy Butler's team.

In addition, the Bulls signed Rajon Rondo to replace Derrick Rose, but in fact Rajon Rondo and Derrick Rose have completely different styles.

It's a pity that I couldn't be touched by Meng Yun again with Derek Rose against the Bulls. Derek Rose has paid a lot for the Bulls, including his career, but he can only leave sadly in the end.

In fact, Meng Yun has always liked Derrick Rose. Although, like Westbrook, he does not agree with Derrick Rose's playing style, but Rose's desire for victory, love for basketball, and his strength all make Meng Yun feel Vibration from within.He reminded Meng Yun of Brandon Roy, who was equally talented, but lost to injuries in the end.

Of course, Rose's injury has a certain relationship with his style of play.

The Bulls are not a weak team, but Spoelstra still intends to train. Of course, he did not train at the beginning. That would look down on his opponent too much. There is no weak team in the NBA.

So the first half was played seriously. In these few games, Meng Yun scored more in the first half and relatively less in the second half, because he was training in the second half.

The same is true today.

At the end of the first quarter, the Heat led by 8 points.

Entering the second quarter, the Bulls began to counterattack under the leadership of Butler.

"Pull away." Butler made a gesture, and the others pulled away. He singled out Luol Deng, first with continuous cross steps, and then suddenly started. It depends on speed and skill to break through, but on the body. After taking a step forward, he was close to Luol Deng. The two confronted physically. Butler's physical confrontation ability is very strong. Although Luol Deng is also strong, he is no longer strong. young.

Butler shouted loudly, pushed Luol Deng out of the way, took advantage of the momentum and rushed to the inside to prepare for a layup. Suddenly, a figure rushed out. Butler's heart jumped, and he quickly retracted the ball, and then his body followed the inertia to the other side. On one side, he made a reverse basket before landing.He turned around when he saw the basketball hit, his face changed slightly: "Meng."

Meng Yun grinned and smiled at Butler, feeling a little pity, and almost blocked Butler.

Butler turned around and returned to defense. While running, he couldn't help sighing. Some people are indeed geniuses, such as LeBron James, or Meng Yun. In just one season, Meng Yun has grown to this point.

I think Meng Yun was still a fresh rookie when Wade brought Meng Yun to train with them. Except for JR, the few people who trained together could abuse him, LeBron, Wade, Anthony, Paul, and so on. Including Butler.At the beginning, he abused Meng Yun a lot, every time he was singled out, he beat Meng Yun to death.

But after only one season, everything changed.

Butler didn't even think that the tender rookie who was abused by everyone every day would quickly grow to the point where he averaged 20+ per game.

"This kid is improving so fast, I may not necessarily be his opponent in two years." Butler thought to himself.

Of course, that was two years ago. As for now, he is confident that he can still defeat Meng Yun.

Meng Yun didn't know what Butler was thinking, otherwise he would be very interested in a one-on-one match with Butler, why wait two years, let's compete now!
on the sidelines.

Craig said with a smile: "The training during this period is still very effective. Although the ball was still not defended just now, it is because of Butler's personal ability is too good. In fact, the defense has been done very well."

Spoelstra nodded and said with relief: "Meng knew that Luol Deng couldn't stop Butler, so he shrunk ahead of time and almost blocked Butler in the end. Monroe, Whiteside, and Wade also had their own Holding the position, Butler was actually unable to pass the ball at that time, and the passing route was blocked. If another person was replaced, he would either be blocked or make a mistake. After a while, our new system basically can be built.”

This ball is just a typical example, and there are many similar situations.

From these, we can see the role of the Heat's training during this period. The defense has become more tacit and rigorous. They all know what they should do and what their teammates are doing. This is very good.
